Spicy Buffalo Chicken Wing Pizza
Natalie C.

Started our day off with coffee, which this place was a quick, convenient walk from the cabin we were staying at. Coffee and Lotus drinks were good, quick, and affordable. Locals are so sweet. Was greeted by the workers immediately and then also by a group of older gentleman having breakfast. Had ended our night with a pizza that sounded too good to pass up. It was delicious and also decent pricing. Tip: One lady told me that the medium & large pizza are basically the same amount of slices, ones just a little bigger, so incase you want to save a few bucks. Again the locals amazed me by asking about our puppy and chit-chatting. We've been to other small towns and some people are not as friendly to vacationers, so it made our trip wonderful. 10/10 recommend this little deli though for a quick bite or a quick drink. I think their sign said live music on Fridays as well, so pop by to see what's going on(:

I suggest checking their hours - I was there on a Tuesday but it says it's closed on Yelp. Nitpicky wise, I was watching their video drink offerings while I waited and ordered a hibiscus gin and tonic. It was given to me in a cosmopolitan style glass, with no ice, instead of the glass in the photo (a normal highball glass) Tasty but very hard to pick up and got warm quickly. My sandwich took way longer to get than I expected, especially as I was the only customer at the time - I've worked on the sandwich/cold line at multiple restaurants in my day, so I don't think I'm out of line in having timeline expectations. I think part of it was while I ordered a cold sandwich (on purpose, toasty bread tends to cut the roof of my mouth up), they ended up toasting the bread as if it were a hot sandwich - and I assume the person didn't know the menu. I said I'd wanted regular/plain chips and I got maui onion, possibly that was the only option or it was that and salt and vinegar, I was a bit confused by that. While that wasn't optimal, the sandwich was extremely delicious, with ingredients evenly distributed (hey usually there's a big lump of meat in the middle and stuff is all over the place, so I really value this!) and the bread was in my top 5 of all the breads I have ever had a sandwich on in 50 years of being alive, going to culinary school, and being picky about where I eat. Wherever they get their rolls from is made of magic. I admit I don't have a ton of experience in places in smaller town counter service places where you bus your own table and tip before you've even gotten food. I felt awkward when I tried to make eye contact/body language in a drawn out way to say thanks to the employee 8 feet away on my way out to say thanks and it was great! but they were engaged in a personal conversation with a relative that had come in - and didn't look at me or acknowledge me at all as I left despite facing me and not really be able to miss me being there. I may be old fashioned, but a friendly greeting and a polite goodbye is my expectation when I'm the only customer in a place, regardless of what I tip. So basically I would eat there again - if I was local I'd make it a go to, but as a visitor to the city, I sure wouldn't tip 25% tip when ordering, after my experience for sure. I'd considered going back to get pizza for dinner due to pizza reviews, but felt too awkward after the impersonal experience. Long review but I have a lot of feelings about my money spent on food service. TL:DR Eat there at least once if you are in the area, because your taste buds will be happy, you can decide if your customer service experiences are good personally or not and you want to be a regular/how to tip.

Reuben sandwich, salmon sammie and some chili
Matt C.

My wife and I decided to have our family time at a little cafe/deli called Union Square Deli. She is a frequent customer and has been since she was first pregnant, and had to drive by often to go to the doctor's appointments. I had never been, but since I'm a Yelp kind of person, I'm curious to try new places. The menu seemed unremarkable, like menus I have seen before. But a couple of things I will remember. It's not only a deli, but also has an ice cream area, and a whole separate section for bar/ alcohol area. Also, as you'll notice in the close-up picture, they seem to have what I consider dark rye bread which I find at very few places. My Reuben sandwich was extra yummy because it had thick dark rye bread, with what I consider a fair amount of meat, and tasted very good especially with some chili dolloped on top. Also for you people that have Celiac or are gluten free, my wife would approve, because they have gluten-free crust for the pizzas, and gluten-free bread which she had on her favorite sandwich the salmon sammie. The chili was also gluten-free approved.. For those looking for some ambiance, it seemed pretty low-key on a Saturday afternoon but I also noticed on their chalkboard they seem to have open mic night every Friday evening.. For those of you who like extra sauce, the waitress was very nice and she brought me some Tapatio and a bottle of ketchup:)

Second time visiting and decided to try the veggie panini with a side snickerdoodle cookie. Starting out, service is quick and attentive. Very accommodating for substitutions and super friendly. Lovely little seating area with a cute little bar. Food came out quickly. And plenty of food it was. My panini was about twice the size I was expecting. Toasty with plenty of filling, I thought the honey mustard was a nice contrast of taste with the veggies and provolone I had them substitute for the Swiss. Took home the second half for a snack later. The snickerdoodle was good size and had a good amount of cinnamon sugar. The only change I wish was that it would be slightly warmed until a light crust developed. I am notoriously picky about my snickerdoodles as warm cookies were the main reason I showed up for high school. All in all, I would definitely recommend this deli. We'll be back soon.

Chicken Caesar salad
Leung T.

The steak sandwich was good. So was the Chicken Cesar salad. The Pizza was freshly made but adequate. There aren't any places near by at the same price point so you don't really have a choice.

French dip
Stephen W.

We went here for dinner on a Saturday night and had a good experience. Located just minutes away from the Alderbrook resort. It's smallish and a fit for DDD--nothing fancy but making great homemade food. The pizza was excellent, crispy thin crust and generous toppings. I had a small veggie pie and the kid had a cheese pizza. Tons of fresh cheese. My veggie pie was one of the best I've had. The wife had a French Dip and loved it. Everything is cooked in the oven. I suspect we will return before our departure.

I finally made it into Mosa. This is the newish sandwich shop opened by the former sandwich makers…read morefrom MSM deli that was written about in the Tacoma news tribune. I had never been to MSM before but I knew the reputation was good. Coming in I liked the speed and the simple Menu. I had a 9 inch cheesesteak, they have options ranging from 6 in to over a foot. From order to completion was maybe 10 minutes max. So to be clear this is just a sandwich shop. I would 100% recommend it for lunch. And in the category of sub style sandwiches I would pick this local business over any of the chains in the greater Tacoma area. They use real bread from a local bakery and their sandwiches are delicious. Is this the type of place you go way out of your way to visit? No. But if you're in the general area this is a great spot for lunch. I will for sure be back to try some of the other subs.

Had lunch today for the first time.... First…read moreobservation...NO ADA entrance, only stairs, ramp needs to be installed; after a yr in business they should have already figured that out. The staff are very attentive and friendly, the store itself could use some tweaking; more details in a minute. My 9" Veggie was very good, real Deli feel, and two slices of cheese with all the trimmings, but they forgot my tomato slices, which they quickly remedied, and the bread was a bit chewy but still good. Also, when you advertise "avocado" one would expect fresh slices, avocado spread is not a vegetable; I suggest real sliced avocado for the best veggie hoagie, or maybe an option? My husband had the Ruben, he wanted a 9" but also wanted Rye Bread so they said they would make the inside 9" on the 6" Rye, that was nice of them to offer. There was a lot of meat and plenty of dressing, hubby said very tasty,too - however, the meat was cold on the inside and it was a Dark Rye instead of Marble Rye, and the bread slices were very small and thin; suggest getting a larger slice Marble Rye and make it as a 9" sandwich. Drinks and chips are offered at a seperate price. Parking is very limited, and The building needs some work. The eating area is small but okay, the tables were mainly a waiting area for take out, but for those of us who did eat in, the tables were not wiped down once while we were there, and the floor needed a desperate sweep. The wait was a bit long but they were very busy (a very good sign) take out orders are many, and for the most part only 1 person dedicated to making sandwiches. Suggestions: You're busy! Hire more people to make sandwiches and Dedicate someone to the register and taking care of the lobby area, clearing tables, sweeping etc. Honestly, the concept is ideal, and the food is great and can only get better with time. The one thing that I would add for continued success would be a womans ingenuity and touch, just sayin' All in all.... We had great experience. The food was good! And, We will definitely be back. Thanks

TV's on each wall, & looks like a good place to go watch games. 2nd time visiting. Nice to see the two live Christmas trees outside the front of the entrance. I recently learned today that all businesses that have these Christmas trees, will donate them to a needy family that reside in our lovely Hoodsport community. Isn't that absolutely wonderful? We ordered a BLT subbed sweet potato fries and an 8 piece fried chicken and Jo's with macaroni salad for a side. We placed today's order to go and Kathy was very friendly and attentive. Being that it is Monday night football with the Eagles at Chargers, the place picked up business. The lively chatter was welcoming. A stark contrast to the quiet gift my Hoodsport neighborhood up the mountain offers every single day. I met the owner Eric, and Val who went straight to work in the grill area pumping out food. My husband liked his fried chicken , Jo's & macaroni salad. I asked him if money was not a concern, which chicken would he prefer, the Market or Model T? He quickly replied "without a doubt Model T!" It's pressure cooked to order and so juicy!" I had a taste of the Mac salad and it was delicious. One of the best macaroni salads I've tried. I enjoyed the BLT and the sweet potato fries. We did order a $9.99 bowl of the brisket barley soup. It was hearty, full of barley. I would prefer if it had more meat though. There were only tiny bits of meat in the to go container that had me questioning if it was a cup instead of the bowl I ordered. We have leftovers which is nice. And next time, I believe I'll order the taco salad. Val had just made one and its presentation was on point.
