"It's hard to find if you don't know where it is, but it's worth the search. The owner was really cool and friendly. Most sandwiches are $5 $7. I had the Chick's Club with chicken salad and bacon on sunflower seed bread, and it was delicious. Fresh bread is big for me on sandwiches, and this one was perfect. I also grabbed one of the brownies, also very good. The service was very quick too. I'll be back again to try their pasta salads and other sandwiches, but I'd definitely recommend it to others. They also do cheap breakfasts if you're on the run and they have soups and breads."

John and his team consistently provide the best lunches in the area. I highly recommend trying the subs, salads, and desserts!

This is a fantastic place for lunch! The food is fresh and delicious, the prices are reasonable, and the service is quick. Be sure to order one of the house-made pickles as a side!

After all this time, I can't understand why COTS hasn't expanded. Their food is always fresh and delicious, and the owner John and his staff are incredibly friendly and efficient. It's definitely worth choosing them over the chain restaurants. View menu

This is the under-the-radar gem you’re looking for: a wide variety of the freshest breakfast lunchtime meals served faster than actual fast food by the kindest, friendliest down-to-Earth folks you’ve ever met. I come multiple times a week with no plans to slow down : View menu

I've known on this place since 2002 but haven't gone in a while. I went on this past Wednesday and then still have. The energetic owner, the ambiance, the massive influx of UMMS staff... it hasn't changed. And if you go for anything, go for the Carnival pasta. It has me sold then and it still slaps now.

I was fortunate to work in the same building for a month, and during that time, I ate at this restaurant 2-3 times a week. I was never let down. There are no secret sauces, fancy menus, or gimmicks here—just fantastic sandwiches! If I had my own deli, bakery, and fresh produce, this is the sandwich I would create for myself. The staff is friendly and wonderful, and the salads are excellent. There are no frills or self-promotion here; just outstanding sandwiches.
