MASTIC SANDWICH CLUB

This place is a little strange. The only reason I went here was because I thought it was a sandwich shop. I was expecting to walk in and see a setup similar to subway but it was far from that. It’s honestly a bodega.... but you can easily be fooled by the name and the way it looks outside. They have a small menu. Only 3 or 5 sandwiches are on their menu. It’s honestly strange. They have a numerous amount of rice, beans, chicken, etc... don’t get me wrong the food is good but it’s not what I was looking for. They need to change the name. Also, they only take cash so beware before you go in and place an order. It surprises me that they only take cash. I think they should have a sign on the door that says that. Most people expect to pay with debit or credit these days. It’s such a shame because they make good food. I recommend this place if you want good Spanish food though.

I figured the Sandwich Club was all about sandwiches, so I skipped it--not a sandwich fan. The other morning I needed breakfast specials for workers at my house and stopped in. WOW! Was I surprised! The various soups, beans, rice....were incredible. And the chicken tamales along with the salsa and tortillas....made for a several delicious meals. Yes, the breakfast specials were good...but the specialty dishes were spectacular. The name does seem like a misnomer only because they have sandwiches....but then SO MUCH MORE. We'll be back for sure.
