Very nice and excellent service, This was my first time coming here and I ordered the pastrami with cheese and pastrami chili cheese fries, I made the mistake of not asking them to cook it well done.. I like mine a little crispy will return soon.

If you like this type of food I would say it's decent enough for most to enjoy, but some might say there are better options nearby. The prices are decent and they cook your order very fast.

This little bag was almost $30. I was so skeptical about the quantity and quality of the contents. The first thing I pulled out was the overstuffed pastrami sandwich. It was dense and heavy. Well worth the price. The Chili cheese fries with Pastrami, OMG! I sat it on my lap, but it was piping hot, and I had to immediately pick it up. Pastrami spilled all over the bag when I opened the box. And it not only looked good, it was delicious! There was only one person in the store when I arrived at about 11:30 a.m. I quickly learned that phone orders is the pro tip. As I waited for my order a steady stream of people picked up thier food, none looked like delivery services. The place is clean, bare bones with no seating. This place has been on my list for a while. It was well worth the detour.

After Covid, what was their dining room, essentially became a chair-less standing room only and incredibly uncomfortable. The food is as expected and not disappointing in the best cheat day way. The staff being behind safety bank regulated windows is warranted after the lengthy closure of the buildings front. facelift rebuild of the due to the unfortunate attempt of implementing a drive through by the reckless miscalculation of a mid size sedan and delusions of being a bulldozer

Ambiance: Nothing cute about this place, pretty standard burger joint vibes, small wait area, and speaking through glass. Service: We called our order in, and the lady was really sweet, did not rush us through the order at all, and let us know beforehand that they only take cash. Food: I've had the pastrami sandwich before (delicious btw) but this time, we opted for the chili cheese pastrami fries. They came highly suggested, so we gave it a shot. Now this is not a meal you should have often but it was really good! For all the stuff to be on top, it was actually light, perfect topping to fry ratio. I shared the small and were both satisfied.

Fire pastrami sandwich however the chili cheese fries the chili is good. The cheese is some type of weird cheese so I would suggest get the chili fries no cheese and maybe go home and put your own shredded cheese on there because they’re chili is definitely made in house.
