Dec 2025 update:
Coffee is here is trash & I waited 15 min for a breakfast sandwich (human error by dude in the kitchen)
I won't be going back.
Also, BOSSA sandwiches are superior IMO

The bread used for the panini is particularly good. The porchetta & chicken cutlet are my favorites. Price for portion is solid & the toppings are quality. Good service & nice interior. Love stopping here omw home before getting in the metro to bring home a panino for dinner.

Heard great things about this sandwich spot. Went in for a quick lunch to go. Got the chicken cutlet sandwich, arancini, & a Caesar salad. Service was friendly, but it took over 15 mins to get my order to go. After 7-8 mins, I gently mentioned the wait, & it still took rough that much more time to finally receive it. Given the many options for a good fast sandwich in the west, that was quite a let down.

The food itself: the sandwich was good, albeit very noticeably salty. The cutlet was a good size, though the toppings were sparse & The provolone quite bland (while aware that provolone itself is a mild cheese). The arancini was lacklustre. All the said, the Caesar was surprisingly well made with a crispy lettuce, flavourful sauce, prosciutto cotto bits, generous parmesan shavings & large housemade croutons.

Overall, open to trying it again but not exactly running back anytime soon.

The sandwiches here are the best (open on the Main please!🙏) try the chicken cutlet - you will not be disappointed. Great value for money which is hard to come by these days. Cannolis are always fresh & delicious too. A must if you are in the point!

First time customer & my husband & I really enjoyed ourselves. I had the salami Genoa & he had the chicken cutlet sandwich. Both were delicious. The bread was fantastic, did not get soggy but also not too hard to eat. The coffee is really good as well. Special shout out to the staff who were very nice as well. We will definitely be back.

Need more stars.

Wanted a sandwich. Got a sandwich.

One of the best sandwiches of my life. 2 days after eating this sandwich & I'm still thinking about it.

Next time, I will buy two. I can only eat 1/2 (at best, they're huge). I want two so that my relationship with the chicken cutlet sandwich can be extended beyond a single day.

Had planned to take better photos. But, of course didn't have time.
