On 6/25/2026 Nancy Everett had this to say:
I ordered the Cardiac. It was great! The bread was so fresh. The turkey salad, veggies, and pickles were delicious. I had not been there in years. It's not often that a food you loved in the past lives up to your memory of it. Today's sandwich most certainly exceeded expectations.
