Are you kidding?! This deli is nothing short of a little slice of heaven! THE best grilled cheese I’ve ever eaten- onions, pesto, amazingness.. we had a crew of 17 hungry people and were accommodated graciously. Everyone on our crew raved about their sandwiches and pizza! Can’t recommend enough πŸ™ŒπŸΌ

We walked into this place for a sandwich because it was the place across from the first parking spot we found when getting into town.....and it was AMAZING! The sandwiches were some of the best I've ever had, even just the turkey club was out of this world. The attention to flavor and ingredients shines through. Thank you for such a delightful experience!
