The combo sandwiches are just overflowing with quality. The ciabatta bread is so crusty and wonderful. The people are so nice and accommodating, and they don't even care if your degenerate companion insists on paying with Sacajaweas because she…More »

It's overpriced. The system for payment is antiquated and ridiculous. The (table) service is abysmal. The sandwiches are shoddily put together, with inadequate bread.
But the PASTRAMI is unrivaled. One bite, and you will forget everything I just said.More »

Peter D: I can't decide between the Middle Eastern Mushroom* and the Goat Cheese Salad.**
Bite Guy: Why not both?

Holy crap that's a lot of chorizo (see pictures)!
We walked in, not needing anything. And somehow we walked out with a large assortment of meats and cheeses. Just know that if you step in…More »

Everything you want in a corner deli.
They make cheap, good sandwiches, and sell beer 24/7.
There's also a nice selection of random items. They even have Pocky.
And they make an official bacon, egg and cheese. But be warned, after noon they charge an…More »

Things I Love About V-Nam Cafe.
1. They spell out what the spice levels mean. (Mild is Sriracha. Medium is Sriracha with jalapenos as well. Hot is all of it plus Thai chiles.) It helps me make an informed decision.
2. You can add an egg to your banh…More »

They are now open on Sundays too!
And amazingly, in addition to having affordable, delicious sandwiches, deli meat here is cheaper than at the grocery stores/delis in the surrounding areas.
Sadly, Jean's Bagel Deli is no more.
In its place has arisen Heaven's Hot Bagel, which has the same…

This won't be the biggest sandwich you've ever eaten, nor the cheapest (all subs are $9), but it could very well be the most interesting. With ingredients like lychee ketchup, pickled blueberries and fried lemon, they are pushing the sandwich…More »

$10.84. That's how much two sandwiches will cost you.
I'm not telling you this because you need two sandwiches. On the contrary, one delicious BBQ chicken sandwich with daikon, cilantro, carrots, etc. will be plenty to fill you up.
However, you will…More »

1. If your dog is blue (in terms of the color), you should take him/her to the vet. There is something wrong. Unless you painted him/her blue; in that…More »
