About this spot

💡 Tips before you go
- Order the 'No Mayo' option if you prefer a lighter sandwich, as the default spread can be heavy for some palates.
- The shop is often packed during lunch rushes, so grab your order at the counter and wait in line rather than waiting for a table.
- Try the Italian sub with provolone cheese to get a taste of their most popular house-made meat selection.
