Most Disliked
Some visitors find it challenging to secure a seat during peak hours, especially on Saturdays at 8 AM when the deli hits full capacity. This can lead to longer wait times for those hoping to dine in rather than take out.
Another common concern involves the limited dinner options, as the deli is significantly busier for lunch. While the lunch menu shines, some diners express a desire for more dinner selections. Although free parking is available, finding a space can occasionally be tricky during high-traffic periods, resulting in some frustration for patrons. A few diners have noted that the popular items tend to sell out quickly, so it’s wise to arrive early.

I called a few minutes ahead (short notice) and ordered an Italian Combo sandwich. Along with that, I grabbed a bag of Wise Sour Cream & Onion potato chips. Everything was good and the staff was very friendly. I was in and out very quickly. They had lots of other good food options here besides the deli sandwiches and grinders. It is a nice place to grab some good food that is healthier than many of the drive thru options...
