Would definitely recommend this place! I got the Cobb sandwich on a hero and shared it with a friend! Both of us were very full afterwards. Only around $9 for a hero, the portion was big too. Overall, very satisfied!
A decent lunch place in Midtown East.
I was recently scoping out new lunch spots and came across Toasties on the Yelp app. I decided to give it a go since I wanted to try out a place that offered both sandwiches and salads. The line to order was long but moved fairly quick. I ordered a spicy grilled chicken on pita. Waiting for my order, after I paid, took a while. People were constantly checking the time since the food seemed to be taking forever.
I brought my food back to the office and while it smelled good, it tasted just okay. My pita fell apart from the heaviness of all the ingredients they used. The chicken wasn't bad but definitely wasn't the best I've had. Overall, Toasties is an okay place if you want something basic…Just prepare yourself for a hefty sandwich.
a very simple, basic, quick breakfast joint when you're in a rush or just need something convenient
the food wasn't extraordinary or mind-blowing, nor did I expect it to be. everything was good though!
Great spot for lunch, and a decent (inexpensive) spot for breakfast ($5 wraps).
Their hot sandwiches are really great – really high quality meat and for some things even on site oven roasted. The breakfast wasn't as awe inspiring for the quality of the food, but the price (and size, these are pretty big wraps) is tough to beat.
TL; DR: Take your business elsewhere, as I will be doing with all my future personal and corporate catering needs.
Full kvetch of a real time lunch review fail blog:
I've been hearing from multiple co-workers that Toasties has gone down hill…or they registered surprise when they heard someone still liked/ordered from them…et al. While I've been dealing with this location for just shy of three years, it has only been through delivery and catering for the various companies I support. So I figured I'd give another try today, in person.
Placed a pick up salad order. Schlepped a couple avenues. Went to the register. Was redirected to pick my greens up at the pick up counter. I didn't see a pick up counter. Communication was trying – at best – so I walk in the direction the woman was insisting I go…until…
"OH! *she turns to look at bag right next to her* Christopher?"
I nodded yes…and was given my bag.
*blink….blink*
Schlep back to the office. Open the bag. Salad is chopped, though I selected not chopped…and looked to be without dressing.
Repeated schlep. Went to the salad guys this time. Explained there was no dressing. They didn't understand…or were not believing me…..
When I pull out the salad, they both registered a look of recognition, and pointed to the register.
The new woman at the register – who was the first (out of four) employees to be able to clearly communicate and give proper, nice customer service – literally dropped her shoulders and head when I pulled out the salad; she also recognized it.
She told me there was dressing, just very light, and they were aware that it dries up very quickly (Mgmt: why are any of your dressings non-coating, regardless of them being light or cream-based?!). She then kindly instructed me to ask the guys to give me more, letting me know that she watched them make it, and understood my issue (read: she knew they were being stingy, said something, and lost that battle).
I went back to the salad guys, who already had a side of dressing waiting for me (so it really was that easy to simply give a returning, dissatisfied customer that for which he paid…)….though it barely filled half of the container (it was a tablespoon…at most).
All that, a wasted lunch break, having to stop at a mini deli to pick up dressing…and the salad was no better or fresher (in some cases worse) than less expensive area competitors…plus I can get nearly the same sandwiches/soups/goods at any number of said competitors?
No thank you.
Not what we expected for BFast but it is safe place to grab a bite to go or to sit down cafeteria style.
Pretty much order form the counter, pay at register and wait for your food in a plastic container. We had a bagel with ham and egg and strawberry pancakes.
Good value for what it is.
Plenty of sandwich choices, can't go wrong with anything that has chicken in it.
A lovely chain of Delis in NY, this place is in a great location post or pre or during shopping on 5th Avenue or Madison Avenue. I wandered in here as I was waiting for some of the shops to open on a Sunday.
A range of available options – omlettes, bagels, granola etc etc. My favourite bit had to be the coolers of iced coffee. The guy ahead of me had an iced vanilla coffee, which I decided to copy. The coffee was really refreshing and not bitter, which many iced coffees can be. My granola was yummy and really filling. Pay at the counter and then head to the back for a seating area. My granola got a paid sticker on it, to indicate that I hadn't stolen it!
