What a fantastic find! The sandwiches are huge and delicious. The focaccia bread is one of the best I have ever had. The young lady who served us was a delight! We will be back!

Speaking with Les about his concept for delivering an exceptional food experience, it really resonated with my own thoughts. The expectations were set high and I can honestly say I was so impressed with the sandwich. I strongly recommend trying this restaurant. Absolutely amazing!

Great new spot, took some sandwiches to go to Britannia. Owner and cashier are super nice. Had both the Bambino with coleslaw and the So Seoul and both slapped! Will definitely be back to checkout the patio

Delicious! Really glad to have such a great sandwich shop in the community. I had the "Brooklyn Beef" which had fresh baked bread, and delicious brisket as the main highlights. Everything tasted exceptionally fresh, nicely balanced, and undeniably delicious. Would recommend in an instant.

The vibe stepping into the shop was very cool. My wife and I absolutely loved our sandwiches.. 100% we're making the drive to try the other options. Trust me, it's worth it. You can tell the owner has the passion for his business. He was extremely friendly and it made the experience even better. 10/10

Forget Subway, THIS is the place for a fresh, delicious sandwich. Had the NYC Beet & my son had the Club: both amazing! They compare in size to a full sub but the soft focaccia bread is top notch. You will not regret swinging by. We will visit again hands down.

I had a world-altering experience here, in more ways than one. First, the vibes were impeccable and conversation with the owner was easy breezy. Second, I learned a great deal about the origins of the Lone Star franchise. Third, my partner and I shared two of what I'm going to say were "the best sandwiches in Ottawa" (feel free to quote me), so clearly made with love, know-how, and creativity. I can't wait for the next opportunity to bike out there! Run, don't walk!

This sandwich place is incredible! There are only a few menu items but it's because they do them perfectly! The panini bread is so light and delicious. We have tried the Bounty Miller, the Chicken Bruschetta, and the Club and all of them blew us away. Portion sizes are also generous. Very kind staff! Atmosphere is a 4/5 for now but will be fully 5/5 once their patio is open I am sure!
