This was my first time in an Obee's. I wasn't sure if this particular one located on Venice Island was even open as it appeared from the outside to be closed. I tried the door, and it was open, so I walked in. Once inside, the atmosphere wasn't very exciting. It seemed like it wasn't sure what it wanted to be, a bare-bones sit-down eatery or something else. The online ordering lists chili, but when I tried to order it, I was told the online ordering isn't up to date and they don't offer chili and never have, maybe other Obee's did... huh?

The cheese and meat is sliced to order, the bread was soft, fresh, and not too thick, and all of the toppings were great! Snagged a brownie before paying and it too was excellent. While sitting and eating, about a dozen people walked in over a 1 minute span, they were all in and out quickly.
