| - Overall leaning towards a lukewarm 3.5 here, but still viable on the pickup sammich market.
I got pickup and ordered the Nelson-- a veggie sub [shoutout to my homey Mikey Pollan]. It was a bit on the greasy side and the bread was a little soggy. However, the veggies were that next level shit. I mean the onions were char-grilled and had a very crisp texture to them. The onions were pretty much the highlight of the sandwich, and I mean that in a good way. The green peppers didn't seem to get the same treatment, or maybe it was the sauce, but they seemed a little overcooked or soggy. Second best part: Egg. Scrambled egg is a godsend on a veggie sammich, and this was no exception. There was some spinach and high quality tomato on there but it was mostly overpowered by the previously mentioned ingredients.
At 8.50 ish per big sandwich, you get fries and a pretty filling sub. I would say a large lunch or a medium dinner. Fries are nothing special, they're the kind that aren't supposed to be crispy. I guess some people like that, but it seems like a letdown to me. They also have smaller sandwiches at the 6.50 price point which I intend to try at some point, if I do I will update here.
It took about 25 minutes to get my sub, even though they seemed a little understaffed. So, faster than curry in the box next door but probably slower than Jimmy John's/Milio's/etc.
On the whole very satisfying, I would go here again.
