Killer roast beef sandwiches since 1967.
The recipe for our famous roast beef sandwich is simple: 100% real top round beef. Slow roasted on-site for three hours. Shaved extra thin. Served medium rare on a lightly toasted buttered bun. And topped with a dash of secret seasoning. It’s the same way we’ve done it for over 50 years.

Placed the order, 3 sandwiches including the new southwest roast beef. They all came out raw. Then was told all their roast beef is cooked medium rare and an internal temp of 133(which isn't even Food Safety admissible, considering Food Safety temp is 145 degrees). Never again.

My friend and I have been favorites of this delicious roast beef for decades.
But at this location we were saddened to be presented with roast beef that had so much gristle it was inedible.
So sad we will not return to that location.
I hope other chains don't follow this ones lead.

It was good but not worth the high prices for so little food.
