Our Hero's
Sandwich shop
👍👍 Been craving a nice deli since moving from Philly but haven’t had any luck. It is a cash only spot but the sandwiches there are simple, delicious and pretty affordable. The service was quick and the bread was nice and soft. I would recommend and definitely will be returning.

Hot dog restaurant
👍 You don't really see standalone shops that sell hot dogs other than the hot dog carts in central park.
