Yummy veggie sandwich! My first time visiting and the sandwich didn’t disappoint. Large portion for a 6 inch, and was stuffed full of sprouts, lettuce, onion, tomato, avocado, mayo, pickles, and cucumber with cheeses. Glad we ordered at 10am because it was ready by 12. Be prepared to wait if you walk in. Not a sit down place. Great drink and chip selection. Highly recommend!

I got the bologna sandwich, me and my brother grew up on bologna sandwiches. And the bologna was just delicious. With American cheese, mayonnaise mustard I’m really not a lettuce, and tomato, and not a fan onion. but the sandwich was off the chain…. which means delicious.. I recommend it, and you won’t be disappointed on my opinion..

I don't give many 5 stars, but this is hands down the best sandwich shop I've been to in a long time. I got the Cuban, and my wife got the French dip. Absolutely delicious. Great bread, great meat, and cheese. I highly recommend this place. One thing I would like to suggest, get an online ordering system please so we don't have to call over and over and get a busy signal! Lol

MSM is an absolute gem! They make hands-down the best sandwiches, and every bite is pure magic. My go-to? Mike’s Deluxe, a masterpiece of perfectly paired meats and cheeses. But honestly, you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. The Philly is a flavor-packed winner, and the Club is just as satisfying. No matter what I order, I know it’s going to be ridiculously good. A little pro tip - MSM gets busy and for good reason! Ordering ahead is the way to go if you want to skip the wait. They’ve got a couple of tables for dining in and a great selection of drinks to pair with your meal. If you’re craving a next-level sandwich, do yourself a favor and head to MSM!

This is the kind of sandwich I dream about. If your a guy who gets a 12 inch at a sub chain you only want about a medium here. I ordered a large and ate until I was stuffed and still had half a sub. Prices are good, and they have a good selection of chips and soda, not just your standard 3 flavors like most chains..I want to give an extra shout out to the thick slices of gabbagoul . YUM! Be warned there is often a 30 to 60 minute wait during the peak hours... Trust me it's worth the wait. Just call and order your sub ahead of time if you don't want to wait.

8/14/24: you have got to be kidding me. I can't believe how amazing this Mike's deluxe sandwich tasted. The meats, the cheese, the mayo, the bread were all so wonderful. I can't wait to go here again. Quantity for the price is amazing and they have fresh fish daily! Can't beat it.

Tried a few sandwiches here now and they're all winners! They have excellent bread. The portions are super generous. A 9" sandwich here might be a lot more sandwich than you expect because the bread is quite wide and they are generous with the sandwich toppings. I appreciate that their sandwiches have the perfect ratio of meat & cheese to veggies. It delivers decadence balanced by freshness so that it's not overly rich.

Went here for the first time yesterday around 6pm. I was told it would take 30 minutes and I was ok with that. The other people in line were nice to talk with. Got the Mike's deluxe with bacon and it was really good. The 9" was more than I could eat which was surprising. I'm looking forward to going back.
