NOT ON THE MENU, but I asked the gentleman at the counter what HE makes when he's making food for himself and the crew. Without hesitation he says "The CSC, substitute the Marinara for Ranch Sauce, add bacon, add Buffalo sauce." The young lady at the checkout counter was shocked when she saw the ticket and wanted to know how I knew about their in-house pizza sub. I just said me and my guy over there are new friends; he hooked me up! I've never had a pizza sub before but this was soooo good! I know for sure I won't be ordering from their menu anytime soon!

Awesome hogies for the price, which is comparable to subway. Much more meat than you would get for a comparable hogue at subway. The selection of condiments and vegetables is a bit sparse, but I like the fact that they have Miracle Whip.

This is a must stop… especially for vegetarians. Their seitan sandwich is to die for!!!

Seems to be a must-visit if you’re in town, so stopped by for a bagel. The sandwiches looked fantastic and according to all the other reviews are a must try. The bagel was great and the cream cheese delicious. No place to sit inside so be ready to take out. Service was fast and friendly.

Large variety of sandwiches and french bread pizzas along with some sides and chili. Also have breakfast sandwiches and a quick mart store set up on the side of the deli. Helpful staff tops the sandwiches with your choice of add-ons.

Best subs and cheesesteaks in Ithaca by a country mile. Really good bread quality and sandwich ingredients, and huge portions. Beautiful neon signs, hacky convenience store-items, and the ceiling dripping into a bucket set the ambiance to your gastronomic romp. It really doesn't even get close so there's no second place, but I guess that stand in Wegmans can get an honorable third mention. Definitely don't get the tater tots tho, but why would you at a sub store?

I loved the sub, but the place is almost empty and uninviting; and, honestly, I could get a whole pizza at the gas station with just as much quality for less than the sub cost me.I will not often visit the store in the future; especially if their inventory of goods does not greatly increase.

Best sub sandwiches in town. Particularly love the vegan seitan option, and I'm not even vegan. Great local deli--if you're in town and headed to one of the area parks for a picnic, can strongly recommend this for some foodie satisfaction.

Excellent made to order subs, sandwiches, breakfast and more! Love to get a hot open-faced English muffin egg and cheese on after a long night of work. Or a sub to get me through a long day. The coffee is bold and deliciouss; Always fresh and hot.I was introduced to ssd back in college. One of my teammates was local(still is) and got us hooked so every time we came to Ithaca we got SSD. Now I try to make it a regular stop.

This would have been a easy 5 star rating if the customer service was better. I went to place my order and the young lady with tattoos on wrist is the one who took my order. I explained to her I wanted my sub ran through the belt oven twice. She began to talk over me and Tell me I get it you want it toasted extra crispy . Well I was the only person in line important to know , my sub came out and I requested again please run it twice , she said if she ran it twice it burn so she folded the sub and stuck it in for the third time while baby sitting it ........ see where I'm going with this ? That belt oven bakes food while be ran through the oven . My point is prioritize your time in the restaurant business. Imagineif you were busy . I've been in restaurants since I was 12 busting tables and doing dishes. I'm been a sous chef and a assistant chef for over 10 years in fine dining restaurants. But people's pride and the fact that cooking is becoming less and less of a skill because of machines is the reason I got out and run my own business with animals. People need to listen to what the customer wants and be open to suggestions. It's unbelievable how people don't even do that any more. On a positive not the sub was good. And I will stop bye again. I just wanted to post this complaint so it can be handled differently next time. No worries still the best sub and bank for buck in Ithaca.
