About the Business
Business owner information
Mike B.
Established in 2008. After opening our first location in West Roxbury, Ma we decided that a vibrant and eclectic neighborhood like JP would be a great fit for us to expand into. We are know for our inventive sandwiches and paninis, fresh salads, Monster Burgers, and thin crust pizza. Thus far, our decision to open in JP has been a great success. We love the small town vibe here!

Great food always friendly staff. It definitely needs a reno / paint and deep scrubbing. it's looking quite 'worse for the wear'
It'd also be nice to see a wider range of art such as JPLicks has.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Stephen L.Boston, MA02Apr 23, 2024

The first time that I tried this place, I ordered a Cuban sandwich and I really really loved it. It was very delicious.
Today, me and my boyfriend decided to order dinner from here, he ordered a burger and I ordered a capresse melt and I must say that I am very disappointed at it. It supposed to come with mayo and pesto and it tastes more like mayo and eggs. They put a lot of mayo and you can't even taste the pesto. It's supposed to be a "melt" but the cheese wasn't melted at all. I thought that it was going to be sliced thing melted mozzarella. It was cold thick mozzarella.
Next time I'll just stick to the Cuban sandwich, I pretty much just ate half of the sandwich because it wasn't good at all and to end, they put a lot of red onions. It would be better think sliced onions in a moderate amount.
Would never order again this sandwich.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Deedee M.San Leandro, CA8197770Jun 27, 2022
I want to give them more stars because their food is good when it's right, but for me that's not often!
Yesterday I ordered a Leo the lion on a wrap (it came with wilted lettuce, weird American cheese, on a poppy seed roll which I'm allergic to smh & I had to dig through that lettuce to even see any chicken salad. Wish I could've tried it at least. I also ordered a Texan no tomatoes. (Texan had tomatoes, the chicken and bread were burnt & there was barely any bbq sauce but plenty of tomatoes.
Since I picked up right before closing, I confirmed with the man that my order would be right because the last time it wasn't, and they told me to mention that when I came back in. He nodded said it's right & he made sure.
Nonetheless I get home after a long day hoping to enjoy our subs, and we ended up throwing them away & having to order out.
Such a disappointment because when it's made right, it's so goodHelpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 2 - Marc S.Foxborough, MA01Jun 17, 2023
Good Morning,
I placed an order yesterday for a company meeting. I placed the order at 12:16pm to be delivered to my store on Washington St. in Roxbury. App said approximately 30 - 45 minutes. When the order finally did come, about 2pm, I found out too late that the driver left the order on the sidewalk in front of the store for anyone to help themselves, which they did. What kind of delivery service is that. Not only were you over an hour later than promised, but the entire order was not edible by the time it was found. When I called the number available I was told you would refund less than half the cost I paid. I received nothing, and that's what it was worth. I will dispute the charge with my credit card company. How can you justify charging anything at all for such a horrendous experience.

They have a surprisingly excellent turkey burger (mine had cheddar, bacon, avocado, tomato, and lettuce. Everything on it was just right- the right portions, the right freshness, the right textures, the right bun (loving the seeds on the top), the right flavor, the right side of fries (skin-on fries too, yum). All this for only like $12, ready in like 7 minutes? Yes, please.
The Cuban is solid too- not authentic because it was on a pressed herb foccacia (which BTW was excellent), but tasty and satisfying. And there's lots to choose from on the menu (hi, elote tater tots, what?), and I'm guessing most of it is pretty solid as well.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Kat M.Boston, MA0333Nov 25, 2023
Underrated, great menu. Fast service and friendly staff. I usually sit by the window to people watch. Compared to the [grocery deli up the street], it's a good value.

I understand an establishment not allowing dogs. What I don't understand is why they thought it was ok to serve me a COLD slice of pizza to go.
I came in to grab a slice TO GO with my puppy under my arm. The girl at the register told me there were no dogs allowed so she would fix me up to go. Which I expected. She could have asked me to wait outside until it was ready, which I would have happily done. Instead she threw my pizza in a bag, charged me, and rushed me out. Real Deal was my favorite pizza place. But I now have to find a new one. Thoroughly disappointed!!!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Max H.Boston, MA01Jun 20, 2023
The food, drinks, and service was very good. The ambulance was mediocre and the lighting wasn't the best but over all it was very enjoyable.
