The best sandwich I've had in a while! It's counter service and looks pretty no-frills, but the Italian Club was super flavorful and perfectly toasted with melty cheese...yum! It's in a cool multi use building with pretty easy parking. read more

I wish I can give zero stars for this place because they deserve after this experience. It was a busy day at Iron Works and we wanted to grab something to eat. My partner wanted to grab lunch here so we tried for the first time this place. We got a simple sandwich and elote which the staff said it should take 15-20 mins. We waited and waited it past 40+ mins and I went to ask. - First was that they lost our order number and they couldn't find it. - Second the manager began to say our order was taken by someone else and then that my partner grabbed it. Switching her words back and forth and not believing what we had said. I asked how did we grab our stuff if I still have the device to notify when our food is ready. - Third she completely stopped talking to us and went to go help at other customers. I told her we want our money back and she said, "well I'm not going to refund for the drinks you had". Ma'am, that's not how you run a business. Just admit you messed up and take ownership of your mistakes to help a customer out. - Fourth she mentioned that other tickets have been lost today and other foods have been stolen before. This just shows how disorganized this placed is. We were able to ask for our money back but it was a battle about it. I was disappointed because we wanted to support your business but at this service? Heck no! Do not come here. And from reading other reviews now we did not miss on the food. read more

Not gonna lie, I found this gem on accident but I'm glad I did! Second Slice is located in the IronWorks Marketplace. Upon walking into this repurposed container you are welcomed by an open space that leads to Second Slice. The staff is very friendly and very helpful on this occasion I ordered the Chicken Bacon Avocado sandwich. The sandwich is served warm and full of great flavor. I paired it with a side of chips and a Dr. Pepper which was the perfect pairing in my opinion. Go and give this place a chance, you'll enjoy every bite! read more

First time visiting and loved it! There are so many options on the menu but I had to go with the Chicken Pesto sandwich which came with ELOTES! The wait was not that long and service was amazing! I will definitely be back! read more

I'm a sucker for sandwiches, and now I've found a new spot. Oh, and they have "happy hour" from 7-8... say less. $10 sandwiches are a steal these days, especially since I'm getting tired of sandwiches being ridiculously overpriced. We ordered the Spicy Houstonian and the Chicken Pesto. I'm 100% sure that if we had eaten the Spicy Houstonian right away, it would've been extraordinarily good. The spicy mayo and jalapeño cheddar bread were perfect with the turkey, and while the Hot Cheetos got a little soggy, that's on us for talking for 30 minutes before digging in. The Chicken Pesto was pure homey goodness. You really can't go wrong there. This place is tucked inside a little food hall/shopping center I'd never seen or heard of before. There were only 2 employees but they were just vibing and going with the flow (‍). I'd definitely come back for another sandwich and maybe even explore the other vendors nearby! read more

Second Slice is singing my life with it's sandwiches, grilling me softly with [vegan] cheese, telling my whole life with it's [vegan] options, grilling me softly with [vegan] cheese, yeah, yeah, yeah! Fantastic East Downtown quirky and cool sandwich shop located in the Ironworks building. They have a broad menu of signature sandwiches, including four different vegetarian/vegan options, hotdogs, grilled cheeses, and elotes, including a vegan option with vegan mayo and parm (PRAISE!) Sandwiches can be ordered alone, with chips for an extra $2 or with elotes for an extra $4. Definitely worth the add on in my opinion as the elotes is a decent size portion. I was obviously thrilled to see some vegan options, and went with the avocado vegan grilled cheese on sourdough with a side of elote and man, was it good! The bread was a perfectly toasted and the cheese, was melty and delicious. It can be hard to find a dairy-free cheese with good consistency and this was just right. Amazing. I briefly spoke with the woman at the counter and she was very pleasant and knew a lot about the menu, steering me away from their white and jalapeno cheddar breads as they both contain milk. After letting her know it was my first time visiting, she shared that the sandwich shop has been there for three years now and is open seven days a week. There's ample seating inside Ironworks as well as a few outdoor tables out front. Parking is readily available in the large neighboring lot. Definitely a hidden gem! I can't wait to come back to try out some of their other sandwiches! Yeah! read more

I saw the reviews and decided to try. The service was great. I ordered the houstonian and was given a buzzer. Less than 10 mins later I had my sandwich. The bread was toasted to perfection and it even had the cheese pull. It looked delicious but I have to say overall this sandwich was very dry. I felt like it was missing something, it could be me so I am willing to try something else and update my review. Overall, its a good sandwich but I would definitely get something else. read more

I had one of the best sandwiches in recent years at Second Slice Sandwich. Second Slice Sandwich is located inside the Ironworks building, and they feature a menu of all sorts of panini-style sandos, mostly turkey, chicken, and vegetarian-based. And then diners can opt between different breads, sourdough and seeded bread. I had the turkey melt today... Again, best sandwich in recent memory. read more

They take forever to make a sandwich took about 25 min to get one sandwich , ordered the chicken buffalo sandwich. This was a bad first time the employee forgot about my order apparently my sandwich was way too crunchy he left it in the small griddle they have there . He apologized but thats no excuse for a very toasted bun and forgetting an order will I come back no if the wait is that long on a normal day i can only imagine how it is when busy. My lunch is 45 min and I wasted 25 min waiting on an overly cooked sandwich it was hard and it was not busy here . The place is quick ti gee order just not sure what happened . Ambiance normal it's inside a building with more shops. Thanks to the employee for admitting he forgot . read more

I'm a big fan of their BLTs! The bread is phenomenal and I love the little sprinkles of parmesan they put on the bread. It takes a bit for them to make a sandwich, but that's because they're very busy. Recommend go early right as they open, as I've had to wait up to 30 mins once for a sandwich because of so many people ordering. It's so worth it though! read more

As I stated in my check in, the Italian Club sandwich was flavorful, and worth the wait. The gentleman who made the sandwich, after it was handed to me, realized that he forgot the bacon. He apologized, asked for it back, added the bacon, and then rewrapped it in new paper. In an old Ironworks building, it was interesting to try this place out along with a coffee at a coffee shop in the same building. read more

Went on Wednesday at about 1:00pm for our second experience at the World Famous. There were no crowds, just a few students studying and a large family and another couple or two in the food court area of this small industrial warehouse building. The building houses an array of eclectic, small shops and seems to have very light foot traffic during the week...at least whenever we have been there. There is ample parking across the side street to the main entrance. On to the World Famous Second Slice experience. I ordered a classic grilled cheese with tomato on white bread with added bacon and my husband had the chicken buffalo melt on white, as well. Both sandwiches were ready with minimal wait. No issues finding a table. My grilled cheese was good with a perfect, buttery crunch and a gooey mix of cheddar, provolone and havarti with the bacon and tomato. My husband loved his Buffalo Chicken melt. It was like a panini. Both sandwiches were good sized and the bread to filling ratios were great. The bread itself was delicious and held up to the fillings. I felt like I needed a little more of a flavor boost for my sandwich though, and requested some raw onion, but they only have fried onions which didn't really add the tang I was seeking, but that is just a personal preference. The hubby thought a little fresh onion would have gone well with his buffalo chicken also. I think my grilled cheese was $9 plus a $2 charge for the bacon. My husband's sandwich was around $11 or $12...i can't find my receipt. The prices seemed fair given the quality, location and probable slow traffic during the week. We enjoyed the sandwiches, but we both wished they would have had some fresh onion as a choice. Also, I'm not sure who is responsible for keeping the tables wiped down in a communal eating space like this, but they could have been cleaner. The echo factor in an industrial facility like this can also be a challenge for those with hearing issues. I am not docking World Famous for either of those two things. They are just observations. read more

I LOVE this place. everything I've ordered from here has been amazing and this is my dream panini place. Thry raise the bar for paninis. DO NOT go here if you are in a hurry or are especially hungry. they do take a while , but it's worth it. definitely worth trying for everyone. read more

Italian club, all the way with both sauces, is my favorite sandwich. I can, and have literally ate it 4-5X for a week. Phyllis is always so cheerful and nice when helping me order as well. :) read more

Delicious food, great service, in a neat little repurposed building. Highly recommend this restaurant!

After the rave review in the Houston Chronicle, my spouse and I showed up to try it out. We arrived around 12:30 and noticed two employees working. Neither of them acknowledged our presence. We waited about 10 minutes and decided to leave. I guess they didn't need our business that badly. read more

I love cold cut type turkey sandwiches, but alas, I am pescatarian. However, this place has a bomb tofurkey sandwich. Not too dry (as tofurkey can be) as well as a good balance of all the toppings. If you are wanting a classic sandwich like your mom used to (or did not used to) make, hit this place up! The other sandwiches looked tasty and they have some more inventive ones as well! The ironworks area is fun too and a great place to work/a fun multi-use space. Being a remote worker, hitting up Ironworks, and then getting a sandwich here at lunch time, brings back some of the feelings of being in the office for me. read more

This was our first time to Ironworks Marketplace in EaDo, and we loved it! There are a lot of local shops and a few places to eat. Second Slice Sandwich shop has a great menu with vegetarian and vegan options (and stuff for carnivores, too!). I had the Vegan Houstonian sandwich (with regular cheese) and chips. It was amazing! All of the ingredients were fresh, and it was so flavorful. My boyfriend had the Chicken Bacon Avocado sandwich and he said, "This sandwich is amazing!" The atmosphere is great! It's an open area where you can grab a table and enjoy the shops and surroundings. We are so happy we found this place! We will definitely be back! read more

30 minutes for a sandwich, without prior warning. And there were three people back there working, extremely slow. I asked if it usually took this long, because it was my first time trying the place, one lady said no - one said yes because the bread and everything is made from scratch. I've worked in restaurants, and nothing even at a sit down restaurant would take 30 minutes for a SANDWICH. The food itself was "ok". Elote is not authentic, for the amount of time I wasted waiting I could have gone somewhere else. The Buffalo chicken melt did NOT taste fresh as the lady said was the reason for 30 minutes. Nope. Probably will not try again. Possibly order ahead of you are in a rush. read more

Let's start by giving this shop 5 stars. Hospitality was amazing. The sandwich experience was even better. I will definitely come back.
