"In the Reading area for a work assignment. Stumbled on this very unassuming place and decided to venture in as I had read a few reviews online the week earlier...sounded nice but def understated in reviews. Upon entering the establishment, all spaces/elements I experienced felt very alive I knew I found myself a gem, only left to see if the food would be cohesive with the appealing concept of the space. Warm Classy Contemporary; the colors, music, ambiance, smells, lighting and friendliness of staff...a warm welcome and great smooth jazz playing. Everything perfect, colorful artwork, lovely tables settings, lighting concepts. I believe it may have the owner who sat me and proceeded to get specifics from the chefs as to exact ingredients in the soup of the day, right down to the stock used. Then, greeted by a friendly waitstaff, extremely knowledgeable with the menu and helpful as it was difficult to make a selection. The wine selections for Chardonnay we're all new to me, but as all other aspects of this place we're perfect. I did it up...app, soup, entree' and take home for a full meal w/ the Braised Lamb Shank. Everything ordered was over the top in flavor, (contemporary comfy food mix) presentation and freshness/integrity of ingredients. A dining experience you must try if anywhere in the area. Walked in with a smile on my face and left with a big smile. A shame I don't live in the area, this would be a regular and certainly a favorite of mine. Hope to make it back before I leave!"

"Really like this place. Lots of love goes into the food. Definitely one of the better pizza/sandwich shops in town. Great location right off the Ave. They tried doing outdoor seating in the warmer months, but it just doesn't work because it's literally on the sidewalk. Only about three parking spots directly outside the restaurant, so if you're doing pickup, you may have a hard time finding a parking space. You could always test your lock by parking across the street in the giant parking lot, but the owners of the lot have cracked down on people using it to park if they aren't going to shop in that little shopping center. Hoagie prices are kinda pricy. $7.49 for a 6 is pushing it. Pretty much every other sandwich shop sells a large 12 for around that. Tony's is almost begging you to just get their large 10 for $9.99. Then they have their 20 subs for $19.99, which literally saves you ... nothing! It actually costs you an extra penny if you had just ordered 2x 10 subs for $9.99. Usually the price goes down when you buy in bulk/larger sizes. But not here! Come for the pizza, go elsewhere for the subs. Just super odd in the pricing. Good value for the pizza, price gouged when it comes to the subs. EDIT to respond to the owner: You mean using my own photos from my own Yelp review? Bit of an odd thing to call someone out for. EDIT #2: Thanks for reading my reviews! Appreciate the feedback!"
