Months later I saw them on diners, drive-ins and dives and started calling my wife to come into the room so she could see the place I brought the incredible sandwiches home. if they love a classic Brooklyn-Deli, this is the place for them!
Came here after seeing the review from Belli, it was a great sandwich, nowhere near as full as the reviews from belli though. Flavorful and big enough for 1 person to eat.
