Sandwich Spot · Midtown East · 25 tips and reviews
Vicky Davis: The hot dishes & daily specials are remarkable and the sandwich line is always the length of the place, but worth the wait. Not cheap, the portions are huge.
Victoria G: Finally get the hype for sandwiches. Best hot sandwiches I have ever had. Get the Sgt Sweet Pepper on a hero. It's off the menu.
David Li: If you enjoy being fat, have them keep the skin on the turkey. Perfection

Talia Z: The portobello sandwich is excellent!
Douglas Kurdziel: They have moved some hot sandwiches (like the wonderful Telera and steak sandwich) to the counter in the back - don't miss them!
Jackie Burnbaum: If you're an Italian food lover, this is heaven. From the chicken Milanese salad, goat cheese tarts, refreshing salads, great lunch spot

Patricia S.: Certé's catering transformed our office party into a gourmet experience. The food was delectable, and their staff was courteous and efficient. I highly recommend them for any corporate event!
Noël Duan: For $1.75, you get an oatmeal raisin cookie bigger than your face. I would take a picture but I already ate it.
Raja H: Come here for the Montauk Hangover sandwich. Fried duck egg, creamed corn with pancetta, a spicy lobster sauce, and crispy fried leeks on a roll. (credit to Serious Eats)
