6.4.25: I've been wanting to check out this sandwich spot and had a chance after having to drive in to CDA to pick up my new reading glasses. It was around lunch time and I prepared myself for this place to be busy and I'm glad I did. When I arrived, there was a long line of people waiting to order, almost all the tables inside were taken, and there were several people standing around waiting for their order. The ambience was definitely hustle and bustle and probably louder than usual. This didn't deter me as I got in line and prepared to put on my "patience" hat lol. While standing in line, I had plenty of time to look at the vast menu, which everything sounded great. However, I'm still not eating meat and I went with "The Vegg." It consisted of: fresh avocado, sunflower seeds, lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, onions, cucumbers and sprouts with your choice of cheese and dressings (taken from the menu description). I chose to have it on sourdough bread, with provolone cheese, and add cranberry sauce. I made my meal a combo and added a fountain drink and a side. As for my side, I went with Greek pasta salad. I saw a handful of dessert options that they make in-house and I couldn't take my eyes off this huge rice krispie treat. So I got that and a couple of big chocolate chip cookies. It took quite some time for the order to come out, which again I knew and didn't mind. People watching was interesting. My food was well worth the wait. The sandwich was sooo fresh, crisp, and very scrumptious. I got a half and it was huge. The bread also baked in-house was delicious and wasn't very sour. So if you like a lite sourdough then try this one. The veggies were plentiful, juicy, and crunchy and loved the cranberry sauce addition. I would get this sandwich over and over if the quality and taste is consistent every time. The Greek pasta salad was that of what you expect a traditional Greek pasta salad would have in it. It was a decent sized portion and had good seasoning. I'm looking forward to coming back for sure. Now let's talk about the rice krispie. It was so big, as big as my hand (see pic for reference lol). This rice krispie became an instant fav. It was soft and not overly sugary or saturated in butter. The best part I enjoyed was that they use whole mini marshmallows (see pic). The chocolate chip cookie was great with a good crisp outside and a soft but not undercooked inside. I'm looking forward to coming back to repeat this same exact meal--that's how much I enjoyed it. Despite it being lunch rush hour, every employee was working diligently and each one I encountered was smiling and nice. I also saw some cupcakes in another case that looked awesome and will try one of two of those next time. read more

It's a good sandwich, but not awesome. Would I eat there again? Yes. But only if because I'm in the area. They said that the bread would be toasted, but really it was just warm, not toasted. The tuna was a little on the sweet side for me, and I'm just not a fan of sweet-savory food. For instance, I hate pineapple on pizza, despite liking pineapple by itself. I think their tuna has sweet pickles in it. I'd like to try another meat, because even after all my complaints, they managed to make it tasty enough. So, it's worth giving a shot. read more

Omg! The probs are huge!!! The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. A "whole" sandwich is 2-4 meals depending on how much you eat.

The restaurant: It's very cute love the way it is set up. The beer on tap is a nice addition. I should have ordered a cupcake they look fantastic I regret not taking one to go! Service: was great, friendly crew, it was clean, we got our food in a timely manner Sandwich: I ordered The Italian, the bread was soft and tasty, meats and cheeses were great. Would have liked more lettuce and maybe some oil & vinegar on mine. My husband had turkey and cheddar on sourdough he said it was good. Soup: I ordered a cup of Chicken Dumpling, not good very subpar, bland even with addition of salt & pepper. The chicken was gross, some kind firmed squishy cube it was really not good at all! That is too bad because everything else was good. I gave a 4 but it would have got a 3.5 if that was available. read more

The food was actually good, but it wasn't what I wanted or asked for. There were seven types of bread on the menu. I wanted sourdough, but they were out. I was told they had only wheat or rye, so I asked for rye. What I got was white bread. The staff seemed somewhat inexperienced and disinterested. read more

I love this place. It's not that it produces a bunch of unique stuff. Rather, it's just a good honest, deli with fresh meats and veggies and bread with all the classics and not too expensive. It also is able to move a good amount of people through quickly at the lunch rush, so you don't get too jammed up if you're in a hurry. read more

Sandwiches were very good, but the wait time was extremely long. I counted 6-7 employees working but very unorganized.

Can't remember the last time I had a sandwich this good. And they are humongous! Top it off with a great friendly staff.

My husband and daughter visited this place after school one day, and raved about it, so we decided to check it out together today. It has now become my favorite local deli! I tried the EZ Breezy sandwich along with potato salad, and both were amazing. You can really tell they use high-quality ingredients, as everything tasted fresh and homemade. I added a little salt to my potato salad, as a personal preference, but it was already delicious on its own. We also indulged in their chocolate chip cookies which were incredible, and took home temptation cupcakes to share later because they looked irresistible! And, as an added little bonus, they had a Big Berkey water filter, that we appreciated! The overall vibe of this place speaks laid back, comfort, and quality. I can't wait to go back! read more

Beware, if you get a large sandwich you will be full! A great spot to get an amazing sandwich.

Such great food and what an awesome value!! Great service as well. Will return again and again.

This is a marvelous establishment. Their sandwiches are brilliantly assembled and far better than average. Tarry not and enjoy this excellent place! read more

Excellent sandwiches! I have been 3 times now and I have been impressed each time. The only downfall was on the last order I asked for my sandwich warm and it was cold... Easy fix. read more
