Still on the hunt for a decent sandwich place.
I used to live near the Gandalfo's in Bellingham, Washington, where the store was clean, the service was great, and the manager was a pleasure. We were excited to see a Gandalfo's here in Tempe.
Walked in and stood at the counter for a few minutes before we ordered. The guy who took our order didn't know the specials (and the sign is outside, so I kind of depended on him knowing them).. And neglected that a salad came with mine. We took a photo of the "salad" from my husband's account--it was broccoli with a crapload of mayo and some chunks of cheese. It was probably the most disgusting thing I've been served in a restaurant EVER. They only had five salad options, and my usual broccoli bacon favourite wasn't available. I'm pretty sure they would've even ruined that, so it's probably better they didn't have it.
Counter guy had a hard time maintaining eye contact and a difficult time taking our order and writing it down. Surprisingly, it was almost accurate when we got our order--one of the sandwiches was wrong. We decided not to stay and eat, since none of the tables were clean even though it was 2pm!
I'd hope that Gandalfo's corporate would want to save face a little and remove their name from the side of the building where this place has set up shop. We used a Groupon, and even if they offered $20 for $1 I wouldn't go back.
