    The sandwiches may be expensive, but they are worth every penny. Not being from CT, I only get to enjoy Vavala's when I'm in town visiting my husband's family. I can tell you that I dream about these sandwiches. The bread, the meat, the toppings ... all cannot be beat. The Blue Wave sandwich is THE BEST!!! If you're in Darien, it's definitely worth a visit.

    The Blue Wave is great, but seriously, you're paying 15 bucks with a drink for a sandwich!  I've gone here for years since it's close to my work and I always used to walk out feeling ripped off.

    This place is Amazing.  Best ham, egg and cheese sandwichs on the planet.  There is no doubt.  You must go here for sandwichs, hot subs, cold subs, awesome pre-made pastas and snacks.  These guys are a big part of the Darien community - supporting local teams and posting all local sports news on the wall.  This place is great on any scale.

    Whenever I review something I review it comparably to its competitors.  Unfortuantley for Vavala's there are better deli's/catering places in town.  Actually, vavala for catering is good, over priced but good.  As far a deli I was two gripes about it. 1) The price.  You can buy the same food at the same quality if not better quality for cheaper.  It is crazy how overpriced they are.  2) The food is good.  They can make a good sandwich.  However, I just am never wowed by it.  The best feature about vavala's is the service the main buy and owner I believe is name is Sal is a great guy and everyone who goes there is practically a regular and I think they go there because they like Sal, not for any other reason.

    Okay to be fair - Valvallas DOES have really good sandwiches, there's no denying that, but I give two stars for being grossly expensive.  A basic turkey on a roll will set you back $7.50.  If you grab chips and a drink, you're paying ten-eleven bucks for what SHOULD be a $7 lunch.  It's not a huge deal, but I just wish the prices were a little more down to earth.
