When Blake's first opened in Asheboro, we were so happy to find another small business to support…read more We are both gluten and dairy intolerant, and Blake's has a GF seasoned bread that is delicious. I always order the fluffy on GF with no cheese, and he always orders the Italian on GF with no cheese. There is cross contamination, so if you are celiac, you can ask them to change gloves, use a clean knife, and keep your sandwich away from the others. We have almost never received the correct order without cheese the first time, but they don't make a fuss when asked to remake the sandwiches, and they are very apologetic. These sandwiches are generous with the meat and other fillings, and the pizza-crust-as-bread works so well. We also get their delicious potato salad with our sandwiches. The seating area is not huge, maybe ten tables, but we've never had to wait for one, and we often take our order to go. The restaurant is clean, and parking is fairly convenient. Even with the issue of having to remake sandwiches, I still rate Blake's a solid five star. It's consistently delicious, and I like supporting a small business in my home community.

I stopped into Massimo's for lunch while returning to Winston-Salem from Charlotte. The parking…read moresituation is a little funky/limited because a significant portion of the adjacent area is being developed, into a Love's Travel Stop if the fine folks at Massimo's are to be believed. It's a smaller spot with the ordering counter and kitchen in the back and maybe seating for 26 or so. The folks behind the counter were friendly and the order process was simple. I got their sandwich special, the Buffalo Soldier. It was chicken cutlet with lettuce, tomato, blue cheese, and ranch on ciabatta. I made it a combo with chips and a soda. With tip I think the total was around $17. That was a touch more expensive than I was expecting especially with just a bag of chips on the side. The sandwich was good. Between the blue cheese and the ranch it was really creamy and most of the toppings slide off with the second bite. I don't mind a mess though! The ciabatta bread was the perfect compliment for the sandwich. It was a cute spot and I especially liked the creative sandwich names. I'd go back and try the chicken ceasar wrap next time.

The ambiance is a local spot, I noticed lots of people grabbing to go orders. I felt kind of "basic" when I ordered the grilled chicken club, because of all the "international" and unique options there were. But when my sandwich came out and I bit into it, it was far from basic. It was a top tier sandwich. The bread tasted freshly baked. Airy, crispy and soft. The marinated chicken was tender. What stood out the most though was the addition of the green sauce and honey chipotle sauce. It's a brilliant combo that worked so well with this sandwich. I didn't put the thing down once until I was finished it was so good. I also had the Dominican potato salad. While I'm not sure what made it Dominican, it's on par with all the other great potato salads I've had. Lil papi has gained itself a new loyal customer. I can't wait to try more!

(4.25) O'Brien's is the kind of classic deli every city…read moreshould have. It's a small space - a few tables inside and a few tables out - but don't let that or the line you are likely to encounter deter you. They crank out sandwiches quickly here. Said sandwiches include about two dozen hot and cold offerings as well as the ability to build your own. The meats are Boar's Head, but the desserts and soups are made fresh in-house. Check out the display case for salads and sides that might catch your eye. O'Brien's prides itself on its Reuben, and so I went with the "mini" version (a quarter rather than a half pound of meat) with a pickle for my first visit here. Ordering at the register was a breeze, and I was fortunate enough to snag one of the tables for dine-in. Though I was a bit skeptical that the Reuben would match the hype, it delivered. I don't know that it is without a doubt the best version I've had, but it is definitely up there. The grilled rye was nice and crisp, and I appreciated that they used both mustard and Russian dressing. That, plus the meat, kraut, and melty cheese, made for a very satisfying bite. At $10, the sandwich proved a good value, too. Unpretentious and nostalgically comforting (for Northern transplants, at least), O'Brien's is a well-oiled sandwich-slinging machine. Though that Reuben will be hard to top, I look forward to giving one of their other offerings (maybe a Cuban, maybe a Spicy Italian) a try.

This is an updated review…read more I know I can't just add 5 more stars on and make it a 10. But that's what it is with this week's (4/20 - 4/26/26) special sandwich, The Lava Pocket. Pepperoni, grated parm, shaved parm, mozzarella, provolone, banana peps, onions, fresh pesto, infused marinara, sun dried tomatoes, Italian seasoning. Bruh. I have ordered dozens and dozens of sandwiches here and always take it to go. While waiting with a cold Heist IPA, the smell was just too alluring. I ate the whole thing at the lunch counter. It should be noted that having your sandwich come out before you finish your first beer is exemplary service manifest. It's probably going to be added to the menu. Just in case it isn't, get there THIS WEEK. Lava Pocket is the new
