Two years later they opened the Dry Creek location."

Consumer Comments
"The service was superb. I will go back and tell everyone I know about the restaurant!"
"The Holey Guacamole sandwich was overstuffed and beautifully presented. The warm fresh baked everything bagel was filled with appetizing white turkey meat. The turkey meat was enhanced by the fresh lettuce, tomatoes, avocado slices, and slivers of green pepper. A fresh sour pickle was placed on the side. It was delicious and nutritious, and I enjoyed every bite."
"I would definitely return to this restaurant. It was cozy, and the food was great. I was impressed, I plan to return."
"This restaurant was affordable for the high quality product I got. It was high quality food with real ingredients presented in a deli type of way and I got a good deal for the price. It was obvious that everything was made from scratch. I will definitely go back to this location."
