"You know, the first time I went to this place, I had just moved in across the street and I was trying everyone out. My girlfriend ordered the Pork Belly sandwich because she 's Asian and 'Hella Basic ' (Her words). I don 't remember what I ordered but, I think it was called the, 'I 'm not paying attention and this is the wrong sandwich '. I wasn 't impressed. It was a fine sandwich but not enough to get me back there until today, 9 months later. My girlfriend psychotically loved her sandwich because, as I mentioned earlier, SHE BASIC. Any who, I walked in today starving, as I had skipped lunch, and I really wanted a sandwich. I carefully skimmed the menu and landed on the Amarillo by Morning. To say that this sandwich was amazing is like saying, 'Nukes are a bad idea. ' It 's just a disastrous understatement. This sandwich is the reason I will get out of bed tomorrow. It 's the sandwich all other sandwiches should be measured against. The combination of flavors present reminds me of the legendary music from 'Wild Stallions '. Music that aligned the stars and brought about world peace. It 's what we need in this world. To summarize, when patronizing this lovely local sandwich venue, just order the AMARILLO BY MORNING! Don 't hesitate. Don 't deliberate. Just do it. Your perception will be forever changed. Also, this place has a great happy hour with a lovingly curated Beer list, wine list and even a cider list. All those things together make for a stop worth your while. Tl;DR If you don 't like awesome, good things, go somewhere else."
