| - Hate when I feel compelled to write a bad review....but...
Counter staff was nice...no complaints there, but in the end, it's the food that counts. That's where they fell WAY short. Ordered a meatball sub. Maybe I'm spoiled having lived in Chicago for many years, but this was terrible.
The right (and wrong) way to do a meatball sub:
1. Use an Italian roll, not a loaf of sesame bread
2. Slightly butter and toast it on the grill, not just plain, crusty dry bread
3. Don't skimp on the meatballs - a 12 inch sub (as this was) should have 6 meatballs (especially when smaller), not a chincy 4 with an inch of dead space in between and on the ends. Yours is a bread sandwich with a little meat thrown in.
4. Make sure there is PLENTY of sauce. Mine was so dry, I literally had to microwave spaghetti sauce at home and add it. I have had MANY meatball subs in my life, and I've never felt it necessary to do this. It was like they wiped the meatballs off before dropping them on the dry bread.
C'mon Mama's...just because this isn't Chicago or NY, there's no excuse for such a bad, basic menu item like a meatball sub!
