The well-seasoned meatball sandwich had enough provolone. The meat in the Philly Cheesesteak was tender and natural. Although too sweet, the pulled pork was moist and tender. The star of this sandwich was the creamy and cheesy Mac n' Cheese. The Clubbin' was a turkey club that was pretty standard. I didn’t like the Grilled Cheese because the sweet fig chutney was dominant.
The Cajun Chicken wasn’t too spicy. The chicken was moist and tender. The calabrese salami, capicollo, jalapeno jack cheese, garlic aioli and red pepper spread made it enjoyable. The plain Ham & Cheese was ok.
The Montreal Smoked Meat sammie had enough salt. The Banh Mi had a tender beef brisket was nicely sauced with a sweet and aromatic sauce. It could've used more pickled carrots to balance the sweetness. The Smoked Turkey sandwich was average.

Of the Kale, Arugula and Asiago Caesar salads, I liked the Kale the best. It had dill ranch, bacon, jalapeno jack and garlic crostini. The bacon and cheese added saltiness. I wasn't a fan of the Arugula. The Caesar had asiago dressing and bacon, making it creamy and salty.
Probably the best was the side - the Mac n' Cheese. With the capicola and the mac n' cheese became spicy and meaty. The Kettle Chips, including Salt, Dill and Jalapeno flavours, were crunchy and not overly greasy. The more "interesting" items were tasty and fulfilling. I would pay the extra cost for the sandwiches I liked most rather than defaulting to Subway.

The Good:
- Really tasty mac n' cheese
- The more unique sammies were on point
- Loved the kettle chips

The Bad:
- Is on the pricier end, but not that much
- Standard items are there to appeal to a wide range of customers, I would choose something more interesting
