| - I really wanted to love this place. A sandwich shop that emphasizes "clean" food? How great is that?! Alas, not great enough.
First, let me say the employees are great. Despite being really busy they were very friendly, very helpful, and very cheerful. They seem to have a good team there. Kudos for that.
We went with the "pick 2" option. You can buy half or whole of most things, and then there's a "pick 2" in which you get two items. The pricing per item is different than the half or whole, and I assume the quantity is also (but am not certain). Anyway, that's what we did. I had the "Italian" and a bowl of turkey chili. When they arrived I was surprised how small they were. I paid around $11 for a tiny sandwich and a tiny chili??
Well, maybe the flavor will make up for it. Except it didn't. The sandwich was small in every regard. Not a lot of filling (meat, lettuce, cheese, etc). The bread seemed a bit crumbly. Not exactly dry, but sort of. The chili was a bit soupy but had decent flavor. A bit more meat/beans would have been good.
In short, don't believe their product photos. The chili isn't that chunky, and the sandwiches aren't that big.
Overall, very underwhelming. The combination of good people, "clean food", and a decent (if small) chili gets them two stars. But I definitely wouldn't come back for another sandwich, especially not at these prices.
