Sautéed mushroom and onion omelet
Connie L.

I've been here a few times while working at a client in the building, either for lunch or early in the morning when the client's office suite wasn't open yet. I'm not sure when the deli itself officially opens, but in my experience the building's doors open to the public at 7 AM and the deli has been open when I've gone in shortly after 7. They have a pretty wide variety of menu items, including paninis, wraps, sandwiches, etc. They also have a pretty huge selection of candies and snacks, and even some aspirin up front. The breakfast menu includes sandwiches, pancakes, and omelets. I've had the omelet twice and it's been delicious and hot (they make it to order), but a bit expensive in my opinion--although this may be because it's supposed to come with potatoes and toast and I always get it without those. Service is usually pretty quick if it's not too busy, but it does get super busy during the lunch rush hour, and I have even seen some short lines around 8:30. The staff I've encountered have been friendly and polite. There's plenty of seating and the seating area is surprisingly nice, with tables, hightops, and comfy seats in the middle. There are 2 TVs that play C-SPAN in the morning. The coffee of the day is self serve and nothing too remarkable. The free wifi is pretty reliable, even with VPN. The deli is located on the Terrace level; I used the stairs adjacent to suite 130 to get down from the 1st floor. Overall, a pretty good place to hang out in the morning if you're in the building, and a decent place for lunch.

They won't serve breakfast after 10:30. Lost my business. Place was empty and rather than fry me an egg, or two they sent me away.

A really nice little go-to for lunch. Fantastic veggie options like a veg burger and delicious grilled cheese with tomato.

Twisted Sweets and Savory - Hungarian on Jalapeño Bagel sandwich!

Sometimes you just want to reward yourself with something sweet and…read moredelicious.  That's why we decided to head on over to Twisted Sweets & Savory.  We had never had chimney cakes before - an omission that shall not be allowed to happen again because - Yum!  These are like if really sugary donuts were stretched out into long snakes of dough and then coiled up until it made a wonderful open tube to be coated with all sorts of great things. We chose to do the pistachella and the bounty.  They both featured Nutella and if that wasn't enough, one added crushed pistachios and the other coconut flakes.  They were very tasty but very rich and between the two of us, we had to admit defeat before finishing them both.  Happily, there are to go boxes to bring home any remainders.  The space is very clean and there are tables and lots of napkins (which you will need because these treats are both awesome and very messy).  The staff was very friendly and the parking is easy in the lot out front.  We will have to come back again to try some of the savory options to definitely be followed up by another dessert one. MMMMMM

Twisted Sweets and Savory had been on my radar for quite some time. Yet, it took us quite a while…read moreto give it a try. In part, that was us not quite able to figure out exactly where it was. Grant Street, it turns out, is disjointed. In other words, it's not like it's just a straight shot from one end to the other. We stopped in here on a Saturday around 4 p.m. The place closes at 6 p.m., and are closed on Sunday. At that time of day, they weren't at all busy. The young man at the counter took our orders, and someone working in the back made the sandwiches. We just ordered savory items, so we can't speak to how the sweet items are (although some of them sounded so good). I ordered the salmon sandwich, which consists of: "Choice of your chimney bread, spread with dill cream cheese, filled with smoked Atlantic salmon, spring mix, cucumber, and red onion." The bread choices are everything bagel, jalapeno, and cheesy. I chose the everything bagel and asked for no onion. I found this sandwich to be tasty, but I thought they could have gone lighter with the dill cream cheese. The bread had a nice crispness. My husband ordered the ham and Swiss sandwich, which consists of: "Choice of your chimney bread, spread with paprika mayo and filled with black forest ham, Swiss cheese, fresh romaine hearts, spring mix, sweet pepper, tomato, cucumber, and red onion". He wasn't happy with the paprika mayo, as he says mustard would have worked better. Nor did he care for the sweet peppers. Now he knows not to order the default setting for this sandwich but instead to customize the toppings. They work with DoorDash, which, when ordering online, gives the option to customize one's order. There are high tables, the type that are found in bars, for those who want to eat their sandwiches there. The place is kept very clean.

Stopped in tonight with a few friends for a quick sando. I wasn't in the mood to cook and neither…read morewere my buddies, so we came here for an easy meal. I'm a big sandwich fan and generally make them at home because most shops don't add enough meet or toppings. I think I found my new sandwich shop. Checked out the menu and had to decide between the roast pork and broccolini or panko breaded fried chicken sandwich. Both sounded good, but after I found out the roast pork shoulder is made in house, the decision became really easy. My friends ordered the fried chicken with double chicken ($4.00 upgrade). The staff were very friendly and efficient. It was close to closing but everyone was super nice. They called us to pick up our orders and I was somewhat surprised by the feel of my sandwich. It has some heft to it. I sat down, opened it, and you can see what I had in the photo. Good bread can make or break a sandwich. My sandwich roll was slightly toasted with a good crunch and the inner part was nice and chewy. The sandwich had the perfect ratio of pork and broccolini and was covered in melted cheese and had a mayo/mustardy sauce. There was also just a touch of what tasted like crushed red pepper which just set the sandwich off. I was thinking Reading Terminal Market level of good. My buddies chicken sandwich was ridiculous. Two fried chicken breasts with all the toppings on a nice roll. It was tasty. This place is a real deal sandwich shop. The have the standard sodas and also have Dr. Brown's, Perrier water, San Pellegrino, draft beer, and other beers and seltzer drinks in cans. The chips are the Dirty and Route 11 chips. It's like they selected the best things to go with their sandwiches. Location is a little tricky to find and parking is tight, but it's totally worth the trip. I will definitely be back, but probably get everything to go. If you want a really good sandwich that is stuffed with filling for a fair price, you need to come here and try it out. You won't be disappointed!

Solid Italian sandwich, the arugula on it was a little new for me when I think about a classic…read moreItalian sandwich. I suppose if there is green on one I'm used to shredded lettuce dressed with oil, vinegar, salt and pepper. Sandwich came out quickly which makes it a great lunch spot.
