Anton ShusterJanuary 27, 2017Try the JCVH: a housemade pork sausage patty, sliced ham, Russian slaw and a slab of Swiss. Order with fried baked potato chunks, with salt and pepper or taco style (topped with ground beef).
Sam CatesJuly 27, 2022Fried chicken po boy is UNBELIEVABLE. Crispy frying, good level of spicy. The tartare sounded pretty good too, but it will have to wait for next time. Friendly people, delicious food!
Jack ReevesJanuary 4, 2023Fun hole in the wall. Great variety of sammies, something for every palate. Cute little staff puppy running around too. Best part.
Quality ingredients, inventive yet comfortable sandwiches, beer and wine on tap, outdoor picnic table seating, and a good overall atmosphere.
- Chris CamargoMay 5, 2018If you like a good Italian sub, get the Jersey Sub! You won’t regret it. Also, this cardboard Jimmy Carter in the men’s room is pretty rad.
Denise FJanuary 25, 2020I'm sad this place was sold. I hope the quality of sandwiches or the place keeps same or better. Always had good time, everything is delicious and service so friendly!- Neel HajareMarch 12, 2023Steak tartare sandwich is great! None of the others were anything special. Skins were way over hyped, but, of the styles, buffalo was the favorite
Kayleigh HarringtonOctober 23, 2017Every sandwich is a good choice. We loved the mean sandwich and the buon appetito.
- The vibe, outdoor tables on a warm day, is great. But mainly it's all about the sandwiches and the potatoes!!!
Haley BAugust 21, 2017The meatloaf sandwich is made cold (including the meat). Our skins & ins had hair fried into it. Hopefully a one-time issue!
Stephanie WuNovember 30, 2019Top notch sandwiches with quality meat. The burger is 30-45 day dry aged beef.- Adam LazowskaMay 12, 2017House made pork sausage covered in ham? Who cares what the acronym means, just sign me up.

"Meh beers... San Diego brewery in Seattle. Definitely recommend trying out the numerous local breweries (Reubens, Peddler, Stoup) nearby instead of this spot."
Drew Milam - 9.2
