Cranky Old Mission Guy snapped this pic and noted, “Is it just me, or does this beautifully-rendered sign look like a lascivious, half-digested turd?” Nope, definitely not just you.
Sidenote: between Rhea's, Mr. Pickles, Pal's Takeaway, and Jay's, I always seem to forget this place exists. What's up with people always complaining about there not being good sandwiches in the Mission?

Okay, so the sign sucks, really sucks, but this place ROCKS. Juan, the owner, is this awesome, charismatic guy who can make pretty much any sandwich you want. The specials are pricey, but if you go stock you can get a pile of tasty meat, on homemade bread, for $5. I generally go for the Cosa Nostra (it has about 5 other names there) but is essentially enough Italian deli meat to be considered “lethal” anywhere but the south.
Block your eyes from the sign, but don’t deny your taste buds an awesome sandwich!
That sign is …umm…uninspired, but that sandwich sounds delicious.
the sign sucks, but the sandwiches RULE
this place is great and juan is such a charmer.
when he first put the sign up i asked him what was up with the disturbing sandwich outside. he wanted something controversial and to get people wondering all about it.
“but really? the tongue?”
“hey, i got you talking about it, didn’t i?”
mission accomplished, juan.
