| - I finally made my way to Gandofo's for lunch last week after hearing rave reviews from my boyfriend. We missed the lunch rush, arriving at 1pm, so the service was pretty quick. I agree that the menu was a bit overwhelming, being it my first time there and all, but after analyzing the options I chose the Brooklyn Bridge.
On a side note...there were certainly some interesting combinations, such as roast beef+pepperoni+pepperjack cheese+BBQ sauce+butter+mayo. Not for me, but I suppose New Yorkers are much less picky than me.
So getting back to my sandwich....service was quick like I said, no complaints there. The sandwich, well....it was ok. The bread was really good, definitely a step up from Subway, but it completely overpowered the sandwich. I don't know if my particular sandwich came with less meat, or if the assembly line had a light hand, but I was definitely left with a bread sandwich with a side of meat. Plus the "veggies" consisted of a small amount of shredded lettuce with one half slice of tomato. I LOVE veggies on my sandwich, so this really disappointed me.
So to recap: I'd come again, but apparently would have to pay for "extra meat" and would definitely make a special request for extra veggies. I think I would choose the big "S" over this place though, if simply for the variety of veggies available.
