  • "I need to start by saying that I live in the UWS but work in Hudson Yards and discovered this gem last week. I purposefully come home on my lunch break to get a sandwich here… they are THAT good. Extremely well thought out sandwiches with incredible flavor. Love that you can order ahead of time. 10/10 food, service and staff."
