BEWARE BECAUSE THEY WILL OVER CHARGE YOU!!!!!!!!!
I ordered a ham, turkey and swiss half sub with hot peppers. The sub is $4.75 and the peppers on a half sub is $0.50 for a total of $5.25. Yet, every time I order this sandwich they would give me a different price. Sometimes $6, other times $6.25 and each time I would go over the prices on the menu and tell them that the sub that I ordered is $5.25.
Every time I would challenge them on the price they would have some smarmy reply; "Oh. Only for you this time," or something equally condecending.
Well, I've had enough of their bad math. I was in their shop earlier this week and the owner (I think he's the owner) called me the "$5.25 guy." "Oh," he laughed, "you're the five twenty-five guy! We haven't seen you in a while; that's what we call you, 'the five twenty five guy!'"
I suspect that they are cheating EVERYONE EVERY DAY. Just think, it's easy to do. We have busy work lives and race down to get a bite to eat, not thinking that the place you're patronizing is picking your pocket! -

I got up this morning (yes, morning) craving meatballs. And after a lengthy consideration of buying beef, making some bread crumbs, mincing some herbs... eh... too lazy... I decided that I actually had an urge to get a meatball sub. I had a vague recollection of a place a couple of blocks away called "American Hero" and decided to check it out. So I walked over there and discovered a roomy spot in the shadow of the Citi Building, with about 9 or so tables. I got all set to order my sandwich, and made a horrible discovery.
This shop called "American Hero" DOES NOT SELL MEATBALL HEROES!
Unacceptable. Alright, disappointed, I decided to put off the fulfillment of my craving for another day and merely satiate my hunger. So I went with my old standby sub shop choice: Chicken cutlet with lettuce and mayo. I then watched the counter guy pop a cutlet into the microwave. Taking the sandwich home, I found that the cutlet, of course, was soggy, rubbery and generally over-nuked.
The service is fast and friendly here, but that's all I can say for it.
