Description
Run by the family behind Lil' Frankie's, Supper, and Daddies, this corner of the neighborhood empire pairs a relaxed atmosphere with a beautiful interior. The kitchen keeps things straightforward, serving menus for lunch and late night that feature curated retail items alongside sandwiches built with freshly shaved meats. The preparations lean toward simple, clean combinations—like roast beef with tomato, lettuce, and sauce, free of heavy flavorings—served alongside rotating specials like the Employee of the Month.
