This delicatessen has unlimited potential! GREAT location at busy intersection! Parking is a bit tough, but I wouldn't let that stop me. The people are nice and the place is clean! Bread was fresh, the only problem was that the sandwich at $7.95 was extremely "cheap" in terms of amount of meat and cheese on the sandwich!!! I couldn't believe that the guy (owner?), weighed the meat! What? I've been to many delis over the years and they all slice the meat directly into the bread w/o weighing it! It was like Amateur Hour! There was much too little meat and only 1 very thin slice of cheese! This Screams: "CHEAP"! You might be a Cost Control Freak, but you are certainly not Customer Satisfaction Minded! These guys could be making lots of money if they gave their customers a real good sandwich, as it wouldn't take long for the word to get out that this deli made exceptional sandwiches. People, but especially MEN want to get a sandwich that satisfies them. They got the biggest problem solved ... Location, location. Unfortunately, the current sandwich size isn't going to bring in the crowds. Stop using the scale like they do in those "Franchise" places where the corporate office plans everything out for you and allows only so many ounces per sandwich! Those places are a joke and they Suck. Get back to being an Old School Deli and differentiate yourself from all your competitors! Be bold, think outside of the box that everyone else remains safely in. Give people something to talk about and to remember YOUR DELI before everybody else!!!! Wake up!!!! I'll try you one more time the next time I am in that area. If the sandwich is still a Wimpy Sandwich, it'll be the last time I come in. The ball is...

Read moreFour of us ordered sandwiches and three of us were more than disappointed. You would expect an Italian deli to have good procuitto but it was HORRIBLE. It smells bad and tastes even worse totally inedible. My Turkey & Avocado BLT (as well as my coworker) should leave out the word avocado because this was the amount of avocado on these sandwiches. Inexpensive food, i guess you get what you pay for. Very disappointed will need to travel a little further next time for lunch while we...
