#3. Roast Beef and Turkey Sub
Korina J.

I haven't been here before. My husband said hey they have fresh Boar head meats so we went there today and had lunch. Just want to comment that if you want a side like a pickle which most sub places give you one it cost extra. I got a water and the #17 which is turkey and ham sub and my husband got the roast beef and turkey sub. I have to admit it was very good. Little pricey but what isn't now days . It was delicious!!

Mike's has been here since 1989, and this relic of a TV must have been here from the beginning

Mike's was abuzz with activity when I walked in at 12:30 on a Saturday, and they stayed busy the entire time I was there. College students were coming and going in droves. The food is not cheap here, and for a moment I wondered how these college students could afford it. Certainly I could not have when I was at Florida State University All Those Years Ago (I miss you, George Harrison), but then it dawned on me: these are not ordinary college students--they are Elon students. And if their parents can afford the $54,000 per year Elon price tag, then they can afford to send their pampered child to Mike's Deli. Do I sound jealous? I'm really not. I just felt like saying Elon students are pampered. Let's get back to lunch. I ordered the Reuben, a Coney, a bowl of Cajun chicken gumbo, and a sweet tea. Reuben: Mike's makes a decent Reuben. They use Boar's Head corned beef, which is very good. Oddly, Lox Stock and Bagel also uses Boar's Head, but their sandwich is much more tender. The sauerkraut is good and not overpowering. The thousand island dressing was barely detectable. The bread was okay but could have been grilled more. Soup: pretty good soup with lots of flavors, but it could have been more spicy to match my expectations of Cajun. Coney: I just don't care for Boar's Head franks. They have an odd flavor that I have a hard time describing. Also, Mike's forgot my mustard and slaw. Sweet tea: just ok. Sweet enough and had good tea flavor but also left an odd aftertaste. Mike's is good, but there are just better places to get a Reuben or a hot dog.

We stopped in for lunch today, and came away with less than favorful feelings about the food here (at least the specific items we ordered), though the service was fast and efficient, and the place is kind of funky with the wall loaded with faux retro ads and posters. The Rueben was rather ordinary, with a smaller amount of both cheese and dressing than I've encountered in most area delis - simply ended up rather bland. This sandwich costs $6.49, on a plate (includes chips and a pickle spear) the cost goes to $7.49. Frankly, a few stale chips and an eight of a pickle for a $1 seems more than it was worth. The 2 dog plate special ($8.19 with 2 all beef Coney wieners) produced a great dog with kraut and mustard, but the second dog with mustard, chili, and onions was simply awful. The chili was without flavor, the onions were RED (a total no/no on a hot dog, imo) and were very strong (maybe old). And these were small sized wieners (no larger than the ones you get at Zack's a bit down the street for less than half the price). The price for a single dog is $2.79, goes to $2.99 for an all beef. Simply over-priced and under-sized. Can't really see coming back here. Too many other good choices close by, with better prices.

Deliciousness!! Turkey bacon w avocado!!! Oommmgggggg

Really sad at this experience as a first time Cava customer. My brother was raving about this food…read more I decided to treat him yesterday. We ordered off the app as they have a digital pick up service line. When we arrived to the store they were busy yes but no one greeted us at the window until about 7 minutes later. Our bag had been sitting at the window that whole time. Not only were our bowls wrong. You can clearly see the picture and the list of ingredients, but when I tried to call the store for replacement no one would answer. I went without eating last night and have still struggled to get in contact with them today to make this right. I have high hopes for a retry just really hope they justify this situation. Not only was I not able to eat my food last night I feel as though $24 dollars went to waste.

Let's go Burlington! I was so excited to hear that a Cava was opening in Burlington that I had to…read morego the first week of opening. My husband and I ordered in the restaurant, but they do have a digital drive thru for online pick up orders. We went a little after noon and the line was somewhat long, but the staff worked quickly to make their way through everyone's orders. I created my own Grains Bowl with half saffron basmati rice, half supergreens, traditional hummus, half grilled steak, half roasted vegetables, fiery broccoli, fire roasted corn, avocado, tomato & cucumber, Persian cucumber, shredded romaine, crumbled feta, and Greek vinaigrette (on the side). I also got a side of the hot harissa pita chips. It took maybe 15 minutes from when we entered Cava to when we sat down with our food. The food was fresh and blended well together. It was my first time trying the steak and it was absolutely delicious. I loved the pita chips too. I was a little hesitant that they would be too spicy, but they weren't at all. They were crunchy, warm, and with a hint of the harissa flavor - which was perfect to me. Pita chips feel like a must now with all Cava entrees. Restaurant was clean, bright, and buzzing with activity. The staff were friendly, but very concentrated on making sure everything was correct. The line to order was to the door when we ended up leaving. Parking is not an issue here because it's in a big shopping center. Cava is my go to place in Greensboro, so I'm excited it's closer to home now. Everyone should go show Cava some support and expect to be patient since the employees are brand new.

Mediterranean Deli, conveniently located on Williamson Avenue just off-campus from Elon University,…read morefeatures tasty, freshly-made, and very generous portions of Lebanese and Mediterranean cuisine in a very casual ambiance. I recently stopped in for lunch while visiting my niece at Elon and really enjoyed the experience! The atmosphere is very casual.. you place your order at the front counter and then grab a soda or iced tea from the self-serve soda fountain and a table while they prepare your plate. Our meals were freshly made and incredibly tasty. I ordered the hummus and falafel sandwich ($10), a generous portion of freshly-made falafel and regular hummus topped off with lettuce and tomato served in a pita, which was delicious and very filling. Just a heads up -- it's a little messy to eat since the hummus broke out of the bottom of the pita. Portions are reasonable for the price and the freshness of the ingredients was obvious. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is that the staff could be a little friendlier, but the food quality definitely makes it worth a visit while you're near campus. PRO TIP #1: Bonus points for the small sauce and pickled vegetables bar available to patrons no matter whether they grab one of the handful of small tables to enjoy their meal in-house or take their orders to enjoy elsewhere. PRO TIP #2: Mediterranean Deli doesn't have a private parking lot, but there's plenty of free on-street parking on Williamson Avenue and Lebanon Avenue.

Update: I usually give an establishment at least one more chance before writing a bad review. This…read morepast Friday was the second time that Med Deli has missed the mark with both customer service and food quality. First, customer service has been declining. Workers constantly watching tv, talking, or just like this last Friday, on their phones. We walked in and the man at the counter & young lady with purple hair did not look up from their phones-NOT ONE TIME. They did not greet us nor ask did we need any help. And it wasn't just us. Another customer came in and they proceeded to ignore them. This set the tone and went downhill from there. The food selection was scarce but we made do. However, the food, especially the sun dried tomato penne pasta was just bland and not good. The pasta was gummy and there was absolutely no flavor at all. We wound up tossing the food. We used to wonder why this place was never busy like the one on Chapel Hill. Now we know why-it's just not as good. Won't be returning.
