star provisions

excellent quality!. the quality of thesandwichesare out of this world! i got a falafel pita and my boyfriend got a reuben and both were great! the quality of the ingredients is what makes otherwise normalsandwichestaste even better here! the inside shop is cute and the atmosphere is great. i loved the outdoor seating area and bridge across to more shops. definitely go and give this place a try. oh and the rosemary sea salt bread was very yummy!

try not to become addicted. so, i had just missed the 2pm cut off to get in line at taqueria del sol and decided okay may as well finally check out star provisions. so glad i did and now i have a new go to. i was rather ravenous today, i ordered 2 sandwiches, a fried chicken breast, and a few pastries. not all to be eaten there at once, but figured while i'm there get some good food to eat for the day. i had the chicken sandwich, with romaine, tomato, bacon and green goddess dressing and the roast beef with romaine, tomato, and horseradish mayo. thesandwicheshere are worth every dollar they charge. each bite is perfect! the freshness of their baked breads used for thesandwichestops it off! that was the best sandwich bread i've had to date, h&f seems like generic brandbread by comparison. when you walk into star provisions, you know instantly that this is a place for those who know how to eat well. this isn't the place for those with non-discerning palates who would just as soon eat a $5 footlong with the same vigor. this is a culinary enlightenment house, in which you realize that how you've been eating before is a lie, a matrix built to turn your wallet into one of these *holds up a battery*. also, because my birthday is in this wonderful holiday ridden month, i waltzed right into their meat and refrigerated section and bout a few grams of black truffle to make some luxurious risotto. this place is fantastic! extremely friendly staff as well.

in the small "l" shaped room where you order sandwiches, i've been eyeing star provisions ' muffuletta. there is just one slice left and it's a late lunch, so things are disappearing right and left. my wife expresses interest in an entrée item; item is gone from the shelves. as i point to the sandwich on the menu, the last slice of muffuletta disappears. so i order star provision's reuben instead. star provisions is about one block south of the intersection of 17th street and howell mill road. you'll know it by the collection of cars moving in and out of the lot and the apparent inability of there to be any parking spaces in that crowded environs. but understand, it's more like a bee hive than a static entity, so turn in where everyone else is, and drive cautiously. an opening generally appears. we have been there once, but far too late for any sandwiches. the sandwich shop was closed. so we headed back, to grabsandwichesand then pick up a new slice of high end cheese from tim the c

less than impressed. my co-worker raved about the delicioussandwichesand fresh breads... but my excitement stopped the minute i ordered my food. the cashier was unplesant and unattentive. she seemed more annoyed than helpful when customers asked her questions. i understand there are times when people are tired, but please don't give me that crap. i go to fast food chains for that crap, not a $10 sandwich shop. thirty minutes later, after 2 people behind me got their sandwhiches, i finally received my sandwich. i was upset, of course..i only get an hour lunch break and how long does it really take to make a sandwich? the bread was good but the rest was ok. it was not worth the time, the money, or the congestion on howell mill for this mediocre sandwich and service... the whole experience left a sour taste in my mouth. my advice: find a friendlier sandwich shop that appreciates your business.
