Don't let the outside fool you. This is a great deli/dinner. Great sandwiches. The roast beef was super rare and the pastrami was delicious.

It is not much to look at. I stopped in for a quick "to go" order. I was pleasantly surprised with an old-fashioned, Deli sandwich. The turkey was sliced thin and piled high. The turkey was delicious and their homemade coleslaw was AMAZING! I went there out of convenience, I go back for the taste.

Great stop to grab a delicious sandwich and drinks on the way to the beach. Combo sandwiches with Russian dressing and coleslaw are yummy. Staff takes your satisfaction very seriously.
