    I seem to be going through a mini tuna obsession lately. For the past few weeks I have found myself searching for deli or sandwich shop that does chopped tuna the way I like it - with mayo, celery, light black pepper and finished with hot and sweet pickled peppers. I can go for years without even thinking of it, but every once in a while I just gotta have some. Slack's Hoagie Shack is a regional chain in these parts. They have a large menu of everything that can be stuffed into a torpedo roll and eaten. They happen to do tuna particularly well. They seem to grind it, more than chop it, making for a smooth, plyably, dense consistency, that hangs together well in a sandwich, and accepts additional condiments easily. It is not overly moist, so it is not given to slipping out the back door, and keeps it's shape until bitten. One hoagie is enough for two meals for me, as the standard length is about 12 inches. Their bread is pretty good, but mine may have been past its prime, as it seemed ein bissel dry. In the Trenton area, with so many Italian bakeries, this is almost inexcusable. Fix this, and 5 Stars await. Service was excellent, with easy ordering by phone, and smiling takeout once at the shop. Facility was also immaculate.

    Hoagies are really good. Food is freshly made. I shared a small Philly cheesesteak with my wife and it was plent. It must have been 14" or so. Wife and I split that with some fried pickles. Both were delicious. Staff wasn't super friendly, but at this point I'm thinking is a regional thing. They weren't rude, but lacking any southern hospitality. If you are in the area or visiting Sesame Place, it's a must. After my first bad experience with a philly cheese streak from a vendor in Reading Market in downtown Philly, this place delivered and lived up to the hype.

    Slack's is a low-key gem and a local favorite for many. After hearing so many great things, I confirm it's definitely a fun spot with diner vibes, and it's great to come with friends. The food wasn't my favorite. I ordered the pizza fries, which were too thick cut for my liking, and it didn't seem to have come straight out the kitchen; the cheese was a bit hardened, and I think the staff was a bit distracted at the time. I was a little disappointed by the experience, but I'm open to coming again. They're more famous for their hoagies than anything, so hopefully I get to enjoy them the next time I'm in the area!

    This place is hidden amongst a group of stores in a strip mall. I visit occasionally for lunch since it is very close to my office. Service is not the best in terms of friendliness but you can order and get your food within minutes. They are a tad overpriced but they give you a lot of food for the money so I guess it evens out. Food can be hit or miss. Sometimes they are very good other times not so much. Unfortunately, the latter was the case for this visit. I ordered an American Hoagie and Onion Rings-one was loaded with grease the other with oil . The other members of my party enjoyed their cheesesteak hoagies and fries.

    We ordered dinner for the family and tried several dishes so we could sample a bit of everything…read more There were a couple bright spots (the onion rings and ranch were excellent), but overall the meal fell short of expectations. Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich - This was the biggest disappointment. The chicken breast was extremely thick and had a grainy texture that made me wonder if it was chicken breast with rib meat. If that's the case, it gives the impression that quality isn't a priority. The breading also fell off with almost every bite, and the sandwich wasn't well proportioned (one oversized tomato slice that wasn't cut evenly). Most importantly, it didn't taste like Nashville hot at all -- more like "Nashville not." Shrimp Po' Boy - Below average. The shrimp had a slightly fishy taste, and the bread didn't resemble proper po' boy bread. The greens were a spring mix, which felt like an odd choice. Traditional shredded lettuce would have worked much better. I've had po' boys in Louisiana, and while I wasn't expecting complete authenticity, I was expecting something closer to the spirit of the dish. This version missed the mark. Smash Burger - Probably the best of the three mains we ordered, but still just average. I've honestly had better smash burgers at chains like Shake Shack. Sides: The fries were great. We ordered the beer cheese sauce, which was fine but not necessary. The onion rings were the standout -- perfectly crispy with a clean bite. The homemade ranch served with them was excellent. Overall, I really wanted to like this place more, but the food didn't deliver enough for me to return.

    Stopped back to try some more menu items. Tonight it was the chicken cordon blue sandwich and…read moredrunken Taylor fries. The beer cheese was not the best and the pork roll a bit too chunky didn't make a perfect bite. As always they rock the chicken sandwiches out of the park. Juicy, tender, full breast, breaded and crisp. Flavorful ham and nice honey mustard. Keep it up Coop - we will keep coming back and trying different items.
