Not a big deal, but they should go back to the old one.

When I raised this concern, I was informed that the menu was "outdated." How is it possible that both the printed and online versions are outdated? Why should I pay almost $4 more for something that is misrepresented? I could easily purchase all the ingredients from Crosbys and make five sandwiches for that amount. Ultimately, I decided to go home instead. It's frustrating to hear that the menu in my hands is “outdated.” Restaurants need to move past using rising costs as an excuse and start seeking innovative solutions. Necessity fosters creativity, and it’s time to stop making excuses. Simply raising prices is not a sustainable strategy.

Unfortunately, I decided to try something new: a chicken salad on a sub with tomato and onion. There was way too much mayonnaise—enough to completely overpower the chicken! I couldn't finish it. Mayonnaise shouldn't be the main ingredient in a salad. I’ll definitely come back, but I won’t be ordering the chicken salad again!

Some of my favorite pizza on the north shore. Underrated. The regular cheese pizza would hold up in NY, even better than most. Sandwiches are great too.
