"I had the grilled chicken sandwich the other day and it was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. Flavor, the ingredients meshed well together, and it was still hot when I had received it from my dasher. I also got a mint, lemon, and ginger water and I loved that!!"
"I ordered Hummus dish with shawarma chicken hoping for blend of flavors and the entire dish was bland. Also ordered goat cheese BLT and it was a mess, and also bland in flavor. Spent a lot of money for something I'm not going to eat. Disappointed."

"Everything in this order was pretty good! 👍 My favorite is the Vanilla Shakes."

". Service was outstanding and the food was great. Would order again, got a pizza and an appetizer. Pizza was perfectly cooked"
"Salad was warm and hardly any lettuce or toppings and it cost $8. Pizza was lukewarm, undercooked but had burnt crust to the point it was black. The rolls were fantastic. This is so disappointing because I used to love bertuccis and hadn't had it in a long time, was really looking forward to it."

"I wanted to give 5 Stars but had to deduct one because of a few miscommunications that I hope will be addressed in the future. This was my first time ordering from here. The name is "Old Country" and all the Pizza photos appeared to show only classic hand-tossed crusts, and the menu didn't describe any other options. So, I was surprised when the two ten-inch pies I got ended up being deep dish. Thankfully, they were amazingly delicious! Others might not be so forgiving. Unfortunately, they also made substitutions for the desserts I ordered. I ordered the Bread Pudding, Chocolate Tarte, Coconut Tarte, and a Brownie, and was delivered 3 Chocolate layer cakes and 2 Baklava. Again, thankfully the cake was amazingly delicious, but it wasn't what I ordered. And I didn't want three of the same thing. I haven't tried the Baklava yet, since that wasn't what was wanted at the time. It looks great though, and given the quality of the rest, I'm sure it's probably awesome too (though certainly better if it had been wanted/eaten fresh). Ultimately, since they were out of MOST of the desserts I actually ordered, I would've requested the refund instead of the substitute, and I suspect they knew that and that is why they didn't contact me to ask. Again, since this is my first time ordering here, I hope they read this review and just communicate better next time."
"Closest thing I could find to a north shore beef but really disappointing. Beef was overcooked not rare at all, dry as the non-seeded roll it was on. Pizza is just ok. Second time I've ordered but won't be back for a third."
