$16.00 gor a sandwich that had 4 slices of meat. The meat didn’t even cover the bread. This used to good food, now it feels scammy. Literally spent $23 for a sandwich, tea, and cup of pasta. Nothing was good. Will not eat here again. Sysco strikes again

The Play It Again Sam pasta salad has been a favorite of mine for years. Also tried their matzo ball soup and it was 10/10! I highly recommend!

Smelled like home ( I’m from NY) reminded me of a true NYC Jewish deli. The matzo ball soup was amazing. The Reuben was good but a bit over pricey for the size. Definitely will go back and explore more of the menu.
