Well, after reading the previous review, I decided to check this place out just to satisfy my curiosity, as a retired HEALTH INSPECTOR from California I am very aware of how food is to be handled and the appearance of food handlers. These are my findings. I observed that this establishment was exceptionally well kept and the help were ALL wearing gloves down the whole food service line. ALL food handlers were wearing black baseball type caps as required by health orginizations throughout the US if they are not wearing hair nets. I noticed that there were people working at this establishment whom were of Asian descent, which is not a mark against an establishment as long as they are aware of, and practice safe food handling proceedures. This was my experience when I came in and placed my order at 12:04 (lunch time at most delis) ; There was a line at the door, mainly construction crew and office workers, at 12:09 my order was taken quickly by the man at the register, he placed the order on the ticket line in sequence and my sandwich was dressed by 12:11 then per my request sent through the oven. 12:12 it was removed and dressed with lettuce, tomato, and less the onion as I had requested, wrapped, and handed to me by 12:14. Do the math. That was only ten minutes during lunch with a sea of blaze orange in front of me. That's pretty damn impressive for the amount of staff I could see in the food service area, and I also have to say that the Greek Halibut, as strange as it sounds, is one hellava good sandwich. I will definitely be returning. Of the two reviews about this place, I have to agree with the Recommended rating, as it more effectively describes my own experience. Two things I noticed; phoodcritick neglected to leave information about themselves on their profile, phoney?. They also made a conflicting claim as it was stated the food handler's were not wearing hair nets, but it took the delivery driver almost two hours to make their delivery?
Pros: Fast service, good food, and proper food handling techniques were observed.
Cons: Seating is limited, so go before lunch or take your order out.
