The staff I’ve encountered here are incredibly nice. Earlier this year, I visited during an intense downpour and saw a young couple outside, shivering in the rain as they tried to sell small cacti for spare change. They had been displaced from their home due to violence, and their shelter was full for the night. I wanted to buy them some hot sandwiches, but I only had enough money for one in addition to my own. I took a leap of faith and asked the woman at the counter if they might have an extra sandwich that hadn’t been sold. To my surprise, she graciously made them an entire extra sandwich at no charge, so each of them received one.

This is a great sandwich shop and the sandwiches are great but sometimes they can be a miss depending on who is working/making your sandwiches. read more This is a great sandwich shop and the sandwiches are great but sometimes they can be a miss depending on who is working/making your sandwiches.

The menu is slightly confusing as they only list meat and vegetarian options, but it seems that anything veg can be made vegan if you ask them to. My meatball sandwich had vegan cheese and a vegan spicy mayonnaise type sauce on it, along with fresh and pickled vegetables and it was really delicious!

The menu can be a bit confusing since it primarily features meat and vegetarian options, but it appears that all vegetarian selections can be made vegan upon request. My meatball sandwich came with vegan cheese and a spicy vegan mayo, topped with fresh, well-prepared vegetables, and it was absolutely delicious!
