Food

There are plenty of fresh soups and sandwich options for carnivores and vegetarians alike. Lots of fresh salads including Greek, Sesame Chicken, and Capri. Homemade soups include White Chicken Chili and Tomato Vegetable, both of which are excellent.

Sandwiches are served on toasted Annie's Bakery Bread and include a pickle and side of your choice. All the deli sides are amazing, especially the pasta salad.

One great healthy choice here is the Garden Vegetable sandwich featuring avocado, sweet onion, vine ripe tomato, green bell pepper, cucumber, sharp provolone, local lettuce, and lemon herb mayo on multigrain bread.

The range of sandwich options includes selections such as Cranberry Turkey Pesto, Tuna Salad, Club, Chicken Salad, as well as a whole lineup of specialty burgers.

Prices range from $9-15, which is not bad considering you get to choose a side.

Service

This is a counter service restaurant, so not much in the way of service is involved. Your order will be brought to your table.

Atmosphere

The vibe here is no-frills and casual. If you are seeking something trendy and modern, it's best to look elsewhere. This place can get busy and the seating is a bit cramped. Despite the less than spacious layout, the interior is clean and well maintained.
