They are seriously the nicest people. The food was great too. The prices were almost baffling to me... they could charge way more than they do for what they serve and the reputation they have from the Letterman stuff. But my girlfriend and I had a really nice lunch for $25, including two sandwiches, a bag of chips, and two sodas. I wish I'd been in town long enough to try their breakfast sandwiches, which by the way appeared to be like two bucks each?

FANTASTIC egg and cheese sandwiches. It's in the details—the rolls they use are crisp yet soft—and they toast them on the griddle by default. The super friendly staff always asks if you want salt, pepper, ketchup instead of leaving you to disassemble the sandwich to put them on yourself later (as too many delis do). And, for a place in the heart of a tourist area, it's super reasonable. Has become a morning routine for me. A++++ Would buy again!
