The meatballs are pretty decent, but I have made better ones with a recipe I got online for best meatballs ever. If you are on the UES and need to redeem your MealPal credits, this is a good choice to try once. The guy who worked there was nice and at my request allowed me to try the truffle sauce they sold there for $20 for a large container. I guess this is what they use for truffle pasta. However, there is no way I could use all of it in 7 days so I didn't buy it. The sauce was pretty trufflely.

My latte had a strong espresso flavor and mixed nicely with a good ratio of milk. Cold brew was also solid and not overly diluted. Also super affordable for a regular cup size! The Le Parisien sandwich featured good brie cheese and decent ham; however the bread was stale and to the point it detracted from the overall taste. I think I might have been a little disappointed cause I had high hopes for a French place to have solid and fresh bread. Curious to see if it was a one off thing or a trend. The store itself is super cute! Limited seating with only 2 tables inside and 1 outside but it has lots of cute French decorations mixed with a rustic vibe. Food came out at a reasonable time during brunch hours.

It was good, and I think they have a menu with enough variety for you to find something that you'll enjoy (also some vegetarian sandwiches as well) but I don't know that I'll find myself feeling the need to come back (but also I'm not HUGE on sandwiches in general). The bread was good, fairly fresh and had a nice dusting of flour on it, the meat was a solid portion, and the quality of ingredients was good/fair. I think if I lived closer I would definitely give them another shot. People really seem to like them and this is one of a few of their locations, which are all successful! So come check it out, especially if you live in the area!

I will come back to sample more of their fare. Great for a quick nosh or to pick up dinner on the way home from work.

I've been clamoring - CLAMORING - for a place like this in the Upper East Side. Most Asian…read morerestaurants in this neighborhood are fancy sit-downs, so it was exciting to see a quick, casual stop for Asian "finger food" (for a lack of better word) within my vicinity. Joju specializes in modern Vietnamese cuisine, serving meals like bahn mi, loaded fries, and rice meals. The menu recently added soy garlic wings, and since I am a fiend for Asian-style fried chicken, I of course had to have it. While all of the beverages looked tempting, especially their non-alcoholic soju refreshers, I needed caffeine to offset the afternoon slump that was about to follow, so I ordered a Vietnamese coffee. The wings were huge! It was notably crunchy, saucy, and juicy. There was a decent skin to meat ratio, (I so hate biting into a mouthful of breading), and the meal came out piping hot. It was clear the chicken had been fried per order. Those who know me know that I can't live without rice and would eat it with almost any meal, including fried chicken, so I did request it on the side, although the wings don't come with it. The man who took my order did me a solid and served it with mine, anyway. Good lad! I've been wanting to try Vietnamese coffee for a while now, and it was everything I imagined it would be. Sweet with a bitter backend - but not too bitter! I'm still new to coffee, and I pucker up at anything too intense. This was just right. My meal at Joju satisfied me, mind, body, and soul. I hope it is here to stay, and I hope that a shop like this is a catalyst for other quick Asian food stops to follow. Korean and Filipino restaurants - I'll be waiting!

I was so craving pho and Lyly really hit the spot for me. No wonder this place gets packed even on a random weekday lunch! Only thing is they only serve 1 menu entire day. The dinner menu IS the lunch menu. And there are no lunch specials. Which may deter some people. However the prices are not unreasonable at all. Even for lunch. Overall highly recommend !

The decor is super quaint and definitely had that no frills vibe, letting the food be the star of the show -- no distractions. We started with the papaya salad (a must), veggie spring rolls, and the shrimp rolls -- all so delicious. The fried food was not too greasy, the papaya salad so fresh and crunchy. We all split the mains. If you don't get the crab noodles here, that's incorrect and you have to go back. I would go back here solely for this dish. The noodles were perfectly bouncy and the sauce coated everything perfectly, and the crab chunks were wonderful. I don't even remember the other dishes tbh. But I'll tell you about them -- branzino was a skip for me, curry was good but I prefer Thai or Japanese curry and this seemed like an in between. Then for dessert: Vietnamese flan. Like all flan, it's gonna be sweet as hell, but they do a nice job with the coffee flavour to help balance that out a bit.

There was a line, of course, there always is, and the wait was longer than what we were willing to endure for fare as simple and as common as a sandwich. It was worth the 20-minute wait. We ordered the Milano special, packed with cold meats, tomatoes, pickled peppers, cheese, and lettuce between two soft sesame rolls. It looked magnificent. It tasted magnificent. It was a sandwich to rule all sandwiches. I'd brave the line for that any day.

This time I added more olive oil on one side and heated the top cover part of the bread to make it crisp. This sandwich is big and has lots of vegetables in it as well.

The place they have between Park Avenue and Madison had a sitting room in the back and a couple of tables outside with a cover on top. You will love their sandwiches and there is a line. It is definitely delicious. Very European style line as if I am in Italy.

I first found this place through TikTok, where people were hyping it up in Italy. I was pleasantly…read moresurprised to find out they had a location in New York City, so I obviously had to give it a try. There are a few locations, but I decided to visit this one because it was the most convenient for getting to and from home. I got there around 7:00 PM, which felt a little close to closing time since Google said they close at 9:00 PM, but it wasn't busy at all. In fact, I was only the third customer to place an order. I ordered the La Summer sandwich and added pesto. After sitting down and taking my first bite, I immediately understood the hype. Without a doubt, this is one of the best sandwiches I've had in a very long time. I'm not even a huge sandwich person when it comes to subs and deli meats, but everything tasted incredibly fresh. The ingredients paired together perfectly, and you could still taste each one individually. The only thing I'd change next time is the meat. I had no idea prosciutto was a type of ham, but honestly, it didn't even taste like ham to me. It was sliced paper-thin, slightly salty, and worked surprisingly well with everything else. Next time, though, I'll probably add salami just to see how it compares. Overall, this sandwich was a solid 10/10, and I will absolutely be back--whether it's to try a different sandwich or, if we're being honest, order the exact same one again with salami added. I will say it's on the expensive side, but that's New York City for you. Apparently, all of the ingredients are flown in from Italy. After tax and tip, I paid a whopping $28 for a single sandwich. That said, it was incredibly filling and definitely kept me satisfied. The workers were also really nice and accommodating, and the indoor seating was beautiful. The atmosphere felt like a fancy Italian café, complete with couches and artwork throughout the space. I wish I had taken pictures, but honestly, I was too busy enjoying what might be the best sandwich I've had in years.
