Most Disliked
Despite the many positives, some customers mention that prices occasionally feel steep for quick bites, especially during busy hours. Another point of contention is the crowd, particularly during lunchtime on Fridays when the deli hits 100% capacity. While the food remains high quality, the bustling environment might lead to a longer wait than expected. A few patrons have pointed out the availability of paid street parking can be an inconvenience, especially during peak times. Overall, while the minor drawbacks are worth noting, they typically don't deter loyal fans who prioritize the delicious offerings and community vibe.

The food is always fresh, the staff are super friendly, and it’s just steps away from Brooklyn College, perfect for a quick bite between classes. Their sandwiches and wraps are packed with flavor, and the prices are great for the quality. It’s become my go to spot whenever I’m around campus. Highly recommend to anyone nearby!

I come for the sandwiches! Fresh & delicious every single time. My go to is the Steph Curry w/ pepper jack cheese and extra chipotle aioli. Can’t go wrong with the flavor combo’s in this - Simply Superior!

The prices are expensive but you’re paying for excellent quality food and big portions too, they never did me dirty on the food and I usually ordered pickup on Uber eats so I never had a problem getting scammed. In fact, sometimes they would accidentally give me a hero instead of a roll lol.

Got the chicken tenders, fries and tres leche cake. It was busy but they are organized so I didn't have to wait too long. Food was yummy as usual :)

I was 36 cent short and they let me slide—instant good vibe. Panini’s good too
