"Cheesesteak is awesome 9/10 !!! make sure to add the roasted peppers blend . the meat is seasoned just right and not dry . Order came fast as well food was fresh and hot."
"The chopped cheese is nothing close to authentic. A couple tweaks would take it a long way in creating repeat customers, so a for effort. The roll the sandwich is prepared in wasn't even toasted and felt like the really cheap hot dog buns you get at some obscure, low end supermarket. Not nearly enough cheese, and the roasted peppers and onions were a joke. I don't the the cook knows or understands what a chopped cheese actually is. For now, I'd say it's kind of a sad representation of a true N.Y. bodega chopped cheese. The fries were the perfect texture and packed in a container that didn't trap the steam, keeping them crispy and soft inside.i consult for a living and just wish i could fix this situation before we lose another establishment."

"Chinollo is consistently delicious. Tried the Korean Tacos (2) with pulled pork. They were flavorful, the corn clashed a little so im thinking chicken would be the better meat to choose next time. The vegetable Daily Soup is always a hit for me. Its not like normal vegetable soups, the broth is thick and creamy and the bread they give you with it is fresh and perfect.
