Especially liked it when they expanded the restaurant next door. Light, fresh, airy and twice as much room for dine in. Went there today. Restaurant is now smaller than it ever was, space wise. Now you can only pretty much order take out. There are only 2 tables for dine in service. While hubby looked at the menu, I wanted to wash my hands. I asked where the restroom was and she rudely told they didn't have one. I looked at my hubby and we were both shocked. I told her that it was our go to place but not any more. She didn't care. We turned around and left and we will never return. Sad.....

The secret, beyond fresh veggies, olive oil and wine vinegar, is that the meats and cheese are freshly cut for each sandwich - not pre sliced which allows the surface area to dry out and get nasty. Fresh is best. They've been my (and lots of others) go-to when passing through Monticello for decades. The only similar sandwich I've come across is Jersey Mike's - also fresh sliced provisions.

Sorry sir we're out of tomatoes. OK could you put extra onions and peppers on that for me sure no problem get my sandwich. Nothing but a huge amount of lettuce a teeny amount of tuna no onions and two slices of pepper. This is a total disgrace. This place was a cherished place to come to get a godfather. Today I'm hungry for a tuna sandwich and if I wasn't so hungry, I would just leave it on the counter and walk out. Not to mention $15 later for that small sub and a fountain beverage. Don't come to this establishment. They just hit the brick wall. I haven't been here in a while and I'm glad I haven't!!!! I believe the only thing that can improve about this place is them closing their doors.

On the drive home from Binghamton University, I had a craving for ribs. Although I was thinking…read moreBBQ ribs ... I had to "settle" for slow cooked braised ribs and boy, am I glad I did! Ambience - this is a house converted to a restaurant. The dining room felt like we were having a dinner party at a friend's house and they needed to set up some extra tables and chairs. Food - I ordered the braised ribs with fried rice. The ribs were fall off the bone tender and had the right amount of sauce. It was served with fried rice that was a good starch to go with the protein. 4/5 TL/DR - if you are also traveling back to NYC from Binghamton and your stomach is saying "feed me some ribs...". Go to Salt & Pepper. Your tummy will thank you!

Floors and walls filmed with ages of cheap ingredients foul cook-off. Staff was a bit reminiscent of "Deliverance". Lots of teeth and wary looks. The only reason I went in is because I saw it a few times in passing and it looked like a hippy-type exterior so I thought maybe someone might give a shit about the business, but nope. I'm sure the roaches eat well. As for the pizza? Uff. It looked like hardened yellow glue on a piece of cardboard with some ketchup between. You all should be ashamed of yourselves, and stay away from your sisters! They are not valid girlfriends or mothers of your children!
