"BELOW Average DEFINITELY WILL NOT BACK. Wife and I had an afternoon together and decided to eat for lunch. There were some other (tested and true) comparable options and chose Mr. Pickles on Oakdale Road, Modesto. wife had never been there; I had, but it was a while. What a disappointment. Especially no din available. They had removed all the chairs and tables. No well drinks only $2 $3 not very cold bottles drinks and a very minimal selection of these. Very loud environment due to its ongoing Covid practices; everyone still masked with Plexiglas barriers makes it almost impossible to hear each other while exchanging order information on the counter. I ordered a big sandwich and as offered various regularly occurring sandwich toppings and say yes, and thank you I was informed that they all add ons, at an additional cost, and for an already overpriced, smaller than average large sandwich. The sandwich was really scrupulous and bland... totally underestimated. And finally the free cookie. Lol. The free cookie was about the size of an oreo and the consistency of a well made bisquit and about the same color brown. This sandwich shop is compared to Togos, Quiznos and Subway, not to mention the Mom Pop type shops where the premimiun placed on quality. I can do without the awake atmosphere. Covid has done enough UNNECESSAR damage.... I will not protect a place that still unnecessarily embraces it, but does not even have the service and quality to secure the inconvenience they impose on the customer."
