Came here on a whim during my lunch break and I'm hooked. The Pulled Pork was easily the best version I've had this year. Friendly staff, fast service, and they actually got my order right the first time. Will be back next week.
Brought the family on a Saturday and we all walked out happy. Kids loved their food, my partner ordered the Italian Sub and finished every bite. Prices feel fair for the portions. The dining room was a little loud but that's expected on weekends.
Crispy & Co. has become my regular weekday lunch. Consistent quality, generous portions, and the staff has started to recognize me. I usually grab the Italian Sub but I've worked through most of the menu and haven't had a miss yet.
Hidden gem. We were in the neighborhood for an appointment and stopped here based on a friend's recommendation. So glad we did. The Caprese Panini was unreal — clearly made with care. We're already planning our next visit.
Solid spot. The BLT is a standout — bold flavors, well-seasoned, comes out hot. Took off a star only because the wait at the counter was longer than I expected on a weekday. Still, I'd come back without hesitation.
