There is almost always a long line, out the door, part way down the street, to get into this tiny, corner take-out. It's not because of the food. Even with 3 - 4 people working the counter and cash register, this is one of the slowest take-out places I have ever seen. The food seems interesting - sandwiches such as Mediterranean tuna and Tuscan vegetarian, salads, soups. The cookies are pretty darn good. But, all in all, it's just not worth the wait. Sadly, I have gone in several times with a colleague for a cup of coffee and a cappuccino, at around 2pm, with only 1 person in front of us. We usually waited more than 5 minutes for someone to figure out how to make the cappuccino (this seemed to happen almost every time I went, so maybe they're just not that good with cappuccino) and the girls at the cash register seem more interesting in making each other laugh than moving the line along. I got tired of their coffee/cash register confusion, so stopped going. The only plus - it's rare in this neighborhood to find a trendy sandwich spot, if that's what you're in the mood for.
