Well, my husband and I ordered the Italian beef sandwich and it was phenomenal. The crunch on that bread was amazing. Probably the best sandwich I've ever had on Italian beef as a matter of fact, it was the best sandwich ever.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

One of the best pies i have had in a while. Only complaint is the toppings cupping and filling with grease

The Birria Totchos were delicious, but a little more birria or protein would be good. I can't take a nap like I want to after eating them, but the flavor was amazing!
