10th Avenue Gourmet

I thought I’d update my review since it’s been well over a year since the last time. They definitely have their liquor license back and have a surprisingly decent selection of beers, if a bit spendy. Their sandwiches are still well above average and this place is always hopping.
OH! They also sell lottery tickets now! One-​stop shoppin’ at its finest.

Three days ago I had breakfast (at 4pm) and dinner (at 11pm) here — the staff is friendly, they’re dog-​friendly (which is nice)… but they never actually talk to the customer or even make eye-​contact… one guy is always on the phone, he and the chef only communicate amongst themselves while serving you.
As for the food: (breakfast) I asked for my eggs over-​easy but was given scrambled, and they were not at all good. I asked for bacon but they were out of bacon so they gave me sausage, it was disgusting, it was like greasy «colored, seasoned meat product» and they were out of home-​fries but I didn’t want french fries so they gave me macaroni salad instead, the noodles were overcooked and it was horrifically sweet… (dinner) the roll for my pastrami/​corned-​beef sandwich was a little stale, but the price was just right, and the meats were pretty decent, I got a side of potato salad which was solid, and my beer was dirt-​cheap and ice-​cold.
So – 1 star for breakfast — perhaps breakfast would be better if I had it a more appropriate hour, but they were still serving it, so if it can’t be at least adequate then it shouldn’t be on the menu, right… 3 ¾ stars for dinner… An overall average of 2 stars, I’ve had better, but would consider returning at some point.
