I CANNOT believe the number of 5 star reviews. I have NEVER seen a restaurant that operates solely on the use of microwaves. My son got a breakfast BLT sandwich. After being microwaved, the bacon was so hard he couldn't even chew it. 3 sandwich meals for over $60 for microwaved food is INSANE. Not to mention, reading these reviews, the owner is so utterly disrespectful. Go literally ANYWHERE else!!

Just gonna keep it simple. Watched them prepare the food behind the counter. And by prepare, I mean they put the cold ingredients in a container and then microwaved it. The results were as you might expect. You can see the microwave in the photo. Lmao. Lowered to one star for the snarky response from the owner. Point being, for $15, I don't want gas station food that's heated in a microwave that I get with bits of the food scolding hot and other portions still cold like I just made an at home hot pocket. If you want to give your customers that and arrogantly claim that this a food industry standard, I hope your client base will have some semblance of intelligence to see beyond that. Best of luck. Alright we'll have a back and forth lol. "Mmm kay. If you just didn't like the food or my team messed up, fine." Read my review again. I stated why I didn't like your food. The food was scolding hot in spots and cold in others. I know why it was that way, because it was microwaved. For forty years in the business, I'm amused that you seem to think this is the optimal way to heat food, as opposed to any other operation that does fast casual like a Chipotle which keeps their food heated to avoid food borne illness. I can find microwave quality for $5 at 7-11. And just to preempt since you're clearly responding to my feedback with zero sincerity, no, I don't think Chipotle is a gold standard, it's an example, an example that I don't even enjoy eating at, yet they still hit the mark better than your business. In operation for 40 years and your take away from my review is that microwaves = everything bad. In the business for 40 years and instead of responding to criticism with sincerity, you're sarcastic and dismissive of your customer. At this point dude, the way you've handled this exchange is a bigger indicator of reality to anyone interested in this place than anything I could have said about using microwaves lol. Give a fool a rope and they'll hang themselves.

What a phenomenal location. The sandwiches were out of this world, definitely get something with their homemade chicken, you won't regret it. Their soups and cookies were also homemade and incredible. We're only in town for a few days but we'll definitely be returning here again before we leave. The owner and staff are incredibly friendly and the location itself is very clean and comfortable. This is a must for anyone visiting, you won't regret it!!

The sandwiches were very delicious, the staff was nice, we really liked the atmosphere, there are pictures on the wall. There's an outside space for eating if you want it too.

Great sandwiches, great service, and great prices. Sandwiches: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Value: 5/5 We stopped in to have a quick lunch before hiking in Park City. The owner was super welcoming and answered all of our questions. The folks making the sandwiches really want you to have the perfect sandwich. They were happy to adjust the hotness/spicy level of my husband's sandwich and were more than happy to do half n half meats on my sandwich. Lots of options for toppings, including your usuals and some specialities. Side pickles to boot. The baked goods all looked delicious. It was evident that a lot of locals are dedicated to the place, which is always a good sign. They strive to make the customer happy and value folks coming back. I picked up a quick latte on the way out and they made sure it was perfect and offered to remake it as needed (it was good right out of the gate) Highly recommend if you need a good, solid lunch in the Park City area.
