Ne vous fiez pas à ma tête de Terminator T1000, je ne me restaure pas qu'avec de l'huile… mdr
WoW, un resto qui est resté comme dans les années 1975 tout en restant impeccable & d'une propreté impeccable.
Le menu est étoffé & les suggestions sont nombreuses & assurent un repas délicieux.
La quantité & la qualité sont au rendez-vous &, chose rare aujourd'hui, le client n'est pas vu comme un portefeuille sur patte.
Faites un retour à l'époque des restos familiaux & conviviaux qui permettent aux travailleurs un coin tranquille pour leur pause repas tout comme les repas en famille.

Had a great Lunch with my brother & good friend. We we're greeted at the door immediately, with a smile. Waitress came to our table pretty quickly. Once the food cam the silence also began as we ate without talking to each other until we were done... Excellent smoked meat of course. Can't wait to get back & try some other items on the menu.
We were 3 , one had a onion soups with too many croutons & not enough onions . One had pizza , got it & then 25 minutes later the both of us received our food. I have smoked Big meat sandwich plate & a smoked meat plate.
I can not understand how a deli can have frozen French fries . Garbage fries, 1/4 pickles is not enough. Not my favorite coleslaw either, too liquidity . I took the bigger size of smoked meat but it was not big at all. I would be afraid to see what the regular size is. The smoked meat was average in taste. I will not be back & I believe it is overrated. Same your money, we had 35 minutes for lunch & it took over 50 minutes .

What happened here? It used to be an east end institution. I've devoured many juicy sandwiches at this place over the years. Now the meat is like those boiling pouches you buy at the supermarket.
Was able to order a Whole Cheesecake for a Birthday party (24 hour pre-order).
Not to mention Jarry is a Go-To spot when we crave a good smokemeat sandwich.
One of the best I & My guests ever had.
Creamy & Silky YUMMY 🤤.
Loaded with Whole Strawberries.
We could have fed 20 people with the size of the cake.
staff is always friendly.
Thank you to the Staff especially the person who makes the Cheesecake.
The waiting time was too long, the staff had a dismissive attitude towards the delivery person, & they didn't even seem to care about the presence of the delivery person waiting.
