    My enjoyed sides - cracked pepper chips and cream soda
    Shannon W.

    I can't say no to warm sandwiches. The bread is really unique and toasted, but I wish there was as much meat as shown in the menu pictures since their slogan is "it's a mouthful!" anyway! I do like the variety of ingredients in the sandwich though - lots of types of veggies meats etc. The food comes out fast and hot. I enjoy the specific sides they have, but I wouldn't say they have something for everyone. The price is as high as Panera, and the structure is similar to Panera but they still offer things that differentiate them.

    Stopped in today and the food was subpar at best. Bread was dry and crumbly and the amount of meat and lettuce put on the original sandwich for the priced paid is shameful. The lady working the expo window was the rudest employee I've ever encountered at a Schlotzskys. The only highlight was the young man working the register. Do better Apex Schlotzskys.

    Lots of meat on the deluxe original
    Mary B.

    Stopped by the drive-through for a late lunch. Drive-thru operator was very friendly and helpful - explained the difference between the original/deluxe original which is really just the deluxe has a whopping ton of meat! Of course, I chose the medium deluxe it was delicious huge and I couldn't eat it all! Made it a combo with a Diet Coke and a bag of chips. Overall very impressed - service was good and good was fresh and delicious! Their menu was large and there were a lot of very good sounding items. I played it safe with the original - I'm sure I'll be back to try something else!

    French Dip
    Jillian S.

    Large sandwiches packed with flavor. While on 64, we decided to stop here since we had heard positive comments about it from others. We are glad we stopped, their sandwiches are delicious and flavorful. At first, I thought they were pricy (chips are an additional charge), but then I saw the size of the sandwiches. I should have saved half for later. We ordered the French dip pretzel and turkey bacon club. Our orders were accurate and ready in a reasonable amount of time. Their drive thru option is very convenient and their employees are helpful (I had several questions). We would recommend this establishment to others!

    BOGO Pizza Wednesdays
    Pritesh P.

    I was in the Cary Auto Park area and it was about lunch time so did a quick lookup of nearby eats...and Schlotsky's Deli popped up. I hadn't had Schlotsky's in forever so thought I would rekindle some old flames ;) Glad I did, because their pizzas were awesome sauce! Apparently on Wednesdays they automatically offer BOGO pizzas, so I ordered the BBQ Chicken with Jalapeno and Pepperoni with Garlic Crust. Both were great and there was plenty leftover. The staff was welcoming and the restaurant was clean and tidy. The exterior could use some fresh paint because the remnants of old signage can be seen on the front, and the landscaping hasn't been kept up. This caused me to think it was closed when I first drove up. Hopefully they take care of that, which would probably help bring in more customers. Anyway, I didn't get to have a sandwich on this visit so I will certainly be going back. If you need a quick eat, this place definitely should be on your list.

They were doing everything right, even down to the Dr Brown's, and they had ZERO flavors too. There is a meat and cheese counter,r but most of the length of the shop is pastries, cakes, pies, es and other beautiful-looking treats. We ordered our sandwiches; I had an Italian sub, and it was just ok, kind of dry and lacking in flavor; frankly, Jersey Mike's makes a better Italian. But my wife got theReubenn, and it was simply the best Reuben we've had outside of Katz in NYC. I order Rueben's all the time, and I'm consistently disappointed. Most are dried out, have too little meat, and the corned beef is often dry, but not in this case. The sandwich was truly worthy, and we are ready to go back and have it again. Moist, flavorful meat, a generous portion, and the dressing andkraut weres well balanced. The bread was grilled, not toasted, and was itself rich and flavorful. Altogether, it is a Reuben worth driving a distance to have it. We are already planning to come back and try some of the baked goods, but also get the Reuben again too.

I also asked for a pickle and got two over wrapped spears. While I didn't love all the plastic, they were great. Nice surprise. I had the second half for breakfast the next day.

    Your hunt for first-rate pastries and bagels ends right here. It's not surprising that there's a…read moregreat deli like this in Cary -- a city as stuffed with new Northeastern transplants as it is depleted of old Southeastern woodlands. Despite the overdeveloped bleakness, Cary is, at least, a good town to find many foods, markets, and restaurants otherwise unavailable in the region. The pastry case has a wide variety of options -- everything you might hope to find in a Portuguese or Italian bakery in New England in the 1980s (my touchstone for fundamental pastries). They are all apparently made on the premises, and have the particular look of pastries from the Northeast. Purely in the interest of scientific research, rather than barbaric gluttony, I tried an apple danish, a cheese danish, and a lemon danish. The cheese danish was faultless in taste: The filling was classic New England bakery cheese filling, and the pastry dough was very soft, and light, but not crumbly. Unlike at some Italian bakeries, it wasn't edge-to-edge filled with cheese (though it was the most edge-to-edge of all three danishes, as is customary for the cheese ones, in my experience); you can, and should, easily remedy this by ordering multiples. The apple danish was of the more cinnamon-crumble-forward style, but it was still terrific. The apples were well-coated small soft bits (unlike at some lesser pastry shops where the apples are crunchy undersweetened slices or chunks). Lemon danishes are very hard to find anywhere, and it was exciting to see one here. It was also excellent. The lemon filling sweated a little bit, so be prepared to get a little sticky (well worth it -- since this is definitely the right kind of filling for a lemon danish). The bagels are also top-notch, as you'd expect. They are a tiny bit lighter and smaller than the classic NY deli bagels were a few decades ago. Which is probably a good thing, since the New York ones seemed to be made from lead-208, all-gluten flour, and condensed dwarf star. The taste is pretty correct, though (as opposed to another bagel shop in the region which does manage to make gigantic leaden NY bagels, but which taste like dense white bread). All of the expected varieties of bagels were at the ready, and in good supply. The bagel/egg/cheese/meat sandwiches are pretty much NY deli accurate (but a little lighter -- which, again, is most welcome, compared to spending the entire morning defeating a NY bodega BEC, and the entire afternoon groaning), and carefully yet briskly prepared (with very good quality meat, and with yellow -- the tastier color -- American). (There also was a slice of chocolate cake -- it, unfortunately, was of the minimally frosted type, with some sort of ill-advised sour cream mixture between the layers. We'll just forget about that item.) The shop itself isn't quite as densely packed (with either people or pastry) as a NY deli, and is also much cleaner and kinder. The service is simply excellent. Customers are all quickly moved through the line, and the orders are prepared very efficiently. Despite the speediness, everyone behind the counter is very friendly and as patient as needed. The speed of the North is combined with the friendliness of the South -- a perfect combination, especially for those of us who are hopelessly impatient, but have no desire to ever be yelled at while at a deli counter again. A great business. I hope they flourish for a very long time.

    I went to NY Deli and was honestly flabbergasted by the lack of assistance I received just trying…read moreto place an order. First, the menu is written on the wall, but it looks like it may have been written years ago because much of it is nearly illegible--as the picture I included shows. When I asked the gentleman taking my order what the menu said and what some of the options were, he seemed almost as unaware as I was. Instead of helping me understand the menu or offering a few popular choices at different price points, he began making higher-priced suggestions that really weren't very helpful. At that point, I finally just asked for an egg and cheese sandwich because I figured that was something simple and safe to try. And I'm glad I did! The egg and cheese was actually very good, and honestly, that is the only reason I didn't give NY Deli a lower rating. The food showed me that there may be a lot of potential here--the ordering experience just needs some serious attention. Please consider rewriting the menu on the wall so customers can actually read it, providing paper menus, making sure staff are familiar with the menu and can offer helpful recommendations, or preferably a combination of all three. Good food shouldn't be this difficult to order. Make the experience as good as the sandwich was, and I'd be much more inclined to come back.

My wife bought an éclair and was disappointed in that too. A hard dipped chocolate like Dairy Queen uses on its cones instead of a frosting and the normally light and airy pastry was a little dense and too soft. Last was the service, an older woman we assumed was an owner was sort of helping us but kept walking away to berate and yell at young employees, for what appeared to just be controlling and mean. The younger employees looked like they were doing their jobs fine but she seemed to be in a power trip with a need to have her hand in every transaction. Clearly the younger employees were embarrassed and ashamed left looking pointless as she raced around. That would be tolerable if her customer service was good. It wasn't. We had to keep asking her to come back and finish our order. She wasn't helping other customers just micro managing everything else instead of taking care of the customer trying to order. I think I had to call her back four times and I got progressively louder the more she ignored us to bug the employees. Maybe she was having a bad day but we got the feeling this may just be how she treats employees, unable to let go and let them work. There was an older man who gave me a look and a shrug that seemed to imply he was sorry and helpless. He kept slinking away every time she went after the young workers. The sandwiches might be great, we will never know as I doubt we'll come back she was so off-putting and disruptive.

Something about being travel-hungry made one thing crystal clear: I needed a Wreck. And wow... this hit the spot perfectly. I ordered the A Wreck on multigrain, thin-cut, loaded with basically everything good in the house -- Genoa salami, roast beef, smoked ham, turkey breast, provolone, hot peppers, caramelized onions, pickles, cucumbers, artichoke hearts, roasted garlic aioli... the whole masterpiece. Every bite hit. The bread had that perfect warm toast, the meats were stacked generously, and the balance of tangy, savory, crunchy, and spicy was chef's kiss. The caramelized onions with the hot peppers especially took it over the top. Also grabbed a large Strawberry Dragonfruit refresher, which was ice-cold and ridiculously refreshing after airport chaos and North Carolina humidity. Exactly what I needed.

My favorite order is The Wreck! it's loaded with all the meats and always hits the spot. One of Potbelly's biggest strengths is the ability to pile on condiments, veggies, and dressings, which makes it easy to tailor your sandwich exactly how you like it (also a big fan of their hot peppers). That flexibility goes a long way in keeping things interesting even if you order the same sandwich regularly. We've also used Potbelly for office catering, and it's been a consistently good experience. Orders are straightforward, food travels well, and it's a crowd-pleaser for a group with different preferences. It's not trying to be gourmet, but it's dependable, filling, and well-executed. A strong option for lunch, group orders, or when you want a sandwich that you can really customize.
