The wait staff was not very welcoming, which definitely impacted the overall experience. When visiting a restaurant, especially one with such a great reputation, I expect to feel welcomed and valued as a guest. I was also disappointed by the inconsistency in the posted hours. The hours listed on the restaurant's website differed from the hours shown on Google, which can be very confusing when you're trying to plan your visit. Another concern was the payment experience. The restaurant placed two separate holds on my account--one for $1 and another for over $100. I understand that temporary authorization holds can sometimes occur, but having two separate holds was unexpected and added to an already disappointing experience. Hopefully, this was just an off experience, but based on my visit, I would hesitate to return.

I think we went on a Saturday night and it was pretty busy. There was almost a line out the door, but it moved pretty quickly and we were able to find somewhere to sit. For drinks, we got the Espresso Martini, Thin Mint Martini, Caramel Mudslide Drunken Shake, and Tiramisu Drunken Shake. My favorite was definitely the Thin Mint Martini! Everything we tried was on the sweeter side, so just something to keep in mind if you prefer less sweet drinks. For dessert, we got the Birthday Cake, Carrot Cake, Chocolate Mousse Tart, and a Cannoli. Everything was delicious! The Birthday Cake and Carrot Cake were especially cute, and I loved that the cakes were smaller portions, perfect for sharing and trying a few different desserts. Overall, such a cute late-night spot for drinks and dessert!

Service: The line for the desserts moved really fast. We had a lovely interaction with Jason (who was probably one of owners), about how his grandmother, Carmella, was from Philadelphia.

There's a comprehensive cocktail menu and the French 75ish and the tiramisu martini were both delicious ($18 each). The prices are super comparable with other bars downtown. They have a full bar if you'd like a standard cocktail or any other creation I'm sure they could make it. Our server was great and very attentive. The kitchen stopped serving food at 10pm which I wish we had been told when we came in because I tried to order fries at 10:04 and was told I couldn't. Which I understand I just wish I had known. The place is pretty small and dark and very quiet so the perfect place for a calm nightcap.

There was an option to do a "half bottle" which gets you just a touch more than a glass so we thought that was perfect for the two of us for just under $40.

Gotten takeout here twice and loved it both times. Sandwiches are pricier than most, but that money goes into quality ingredients used creatively. They have a vegetarian sandwich that is better than most meat-based sandwiches that I've had. Staff are friendly. Only complaint is that the ordering and waiting area feels a little cramped. read more

The interior is straight forward with ordering at the counter and then picking it up when done. The are a number of great beverage choices and of course chips or maybe even some pasta salad to go with your meal. We started with the Ranch Jawn with Calabrian hot buffalo roasted chicken, greens, Rantcha sauce on toasted garlic bread. I was expecting a sort of chicken parm vibe, but it was completely different. The chicken is shredded with a nice heat to it. The greens are super crunchy with the tangy Rantcha sauce. If I would have to describe it, I would say it tastes like a buffalo chicken Caesar salad sandwich. What it does really works and makes for a light summer meal. Up next we tried the Bear with cool roast beef, melted provolone, Balsamic Peporonata , Pepper Shooter aioli on a toasted seeded long roll. The roast beef was succulent and tender and a decent portion! The Peporonata, sweet peppers slowly cooked with onions, olive oil and tomatoes provided a nice sweetness to the sandwich. It was interesting that the melted provolone was on the bottom of the bun which was just the right level of cheesy goodness. Finally, we ordered the sandwich that put them on the map. The Such a Nice Italian Boy with Mortadella (with pistachio) , hot and sweet Soppressata , chili relish, burrata, red onion, greens, tomato, sharp provolone with a homemade Italian vinaigrette on a ciabatta roll. I can see why this sandwich is the foundation in which the Pass is built upon. We ordered it to go for later and the owner was gracious enough to pack the wet elements in separate containers. The meats were much like the Bear super tender and sliced thin. What really brought it all home was the chili relish and the vinaigrette which totally elevated the sandwich to a new level! It was a total flavor bomb and one of the best Italian sandwiches I've had. This place is great for a sit-down lunch, but I think it is a great place to pack a picnic lunch to take to the beach in Mt. Pleasant.

This place was very busy during lunch time. 2 Italian boy sandwiches ($19/ea) took about 20 min to prepare. Area wise.. the sandwich is small. However, volume wise it is pretty packed. I appreciate the fresh ingredients (burrata) and the meat piled to the top. Despite its height, the sandwich was cut neatly and easy to eat. I ate half immediately and had the other half for dinner. It's definitely a splurge and not my favorite Italian sandwich (the ciabatta was a little hard) but it certainly is good!

The crispy chicken cutlet with prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, fire roasted peppers, and balsamic is perfection. The chicken parm sandwich is equally as impressive! As a first time visitor, they even give you a free cookie, which is such a thoughtful touch. The owner, Christian, made the experience unforgettable. As a fellow Fairfield County native, he went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. He was kind, generous, and had us sample the gluten free protein bombs and house made chips, which were amazing, along with their Arnold Palmers. The hospitality here is unparalleled.

All of the staff were wonderful and seemed to enjoy working there. It's also beautiful, bright and clean. The Boss is a must for anyone from Jersey.
