Reviews
PROS
– great location, plenty of parking
– online order system is great
– supposedly offers a wide variety of sandwiches, both savory and sweet
– my favorites are egg salad, fiery chicken, loco moco and shrimp cutlet. Also their sweet sandwiches are great and well filled.
– bread is freshly baked, incredibly soft and fluffy. Bread sold separately. The bread reminds me of actual Japanese bread eaten in Tokyo
– Friendly and polite staff. Everyone always smiles
CONS
– savory sandwiches are overpriced for the value. I paid $6.80 before tax for 2 shrimp cutlet sandwiches. Picture shows that only 1/3 of the sandwich is filled. This is consistent across majority of their savory sandwiches where I pay these prices for eating plain bread. If I’m paying such prices for a tiny sandwich I expect a good balance.
– The ratio of stuffing to bread is bad. 2/3 of every sandwich lacks any stuffing especially the edges which are always empty. There’s not even butter! Skimping on stuffing is one of the cardinal sins in my books.
– Never ever have I received, ordered or even seen all the varieties they claim to sell online in person. Yesterday at 11am on a Saturday, when I asked about the loco moco I was told they “were sold out.” How can you sell out of a popular sandwich at 11am in the middle of your work day? What are you doing in the kitchen for the next 3 hours? Are you serious? My assumption is that they don’t and will never have all the varieties available that they claim to sell. This is a serious offense to my tummy. Produce evidence of said sandwich or remove promises from your site.
– limited hours and timing. They’ve never expanded, don’t allow same day orders online and continue to “sell out” like it’s a good thing. Well it’s not. If you’re constantly out of sandwiches you are not successfully forecasting how much to produce.
– tipping culture is out of control. You’re running a takeout window! Expecting tips when I’m going out of my way to drive, spend time and money to arrive at a small shop where they don’t even offer seating, is asinine. Pay your workers living wages and stop shoving off your responsibility to consumers who don’t even get the joy of eating a complete balanced sandwich.
I have issues with how this business operates and I hope they improve. In the meantime, go check out their sandwiches and make up your own mind. For me, I’m limiting my intake until I see improvements.
They are fresh made, they will go bad fast in the fridge. Definitely eat it in the same day if you can.
Service is friendly, but sometime you do have to wait in line for a while and the shop is small and gets crowded. Things will sell out if you go after lunch time. But ordering online ahead of time ensures you get what you want.
1. Okonomiyaki
2. Miso Katsu
3. Mango Cream
Honorable mentions:
– Fried Shrimp
– Crispy Chicken
Participation trophy:
– Crab Croquette
The only one we didn’t like:
– Matcha Strawberry
Too sweet, especially with the adzuki bean. It might have been good if it was just strawberry and matcha cream.
2 sandwiches per person, 3 if you’re particularly hungry or just eat a lot, like me!
I was in Seattle for 5 days and we came here twice. Once was to take sandwiches on a hike, which was perfect. I was worried the mango cream wouldn’t survive the ascent but it lasted well! The second was our last lunch before my flight. I took extras on the plane and they were delicious.
You do have to go early as when they sell out they’re out for the day, but its worth waking up for.
I usually go in the morning and they normally have everything I want
Today I got a sandwich on sale I can only assume it was from the day before. It was like they just made it and half the price!
I have tried half the menu by now and haven’t found a sandwich I didn’t love
This is a must try place!!
