Way more expensive then youd think for a sandwich joint and not significantly better than your average Subway or Jimmy Johns. In fact, Ive never been to a sandwich place I liked less. The first time I went, the food was way too salty, the second time they charged me 5 bucks for a single slice of bread with lettuce and tomatoes on it. The star they did get was for variety of soups and salads, and everything can be to go very easily.

The Picnic Basket is so amazing! I wish that I lived closer because i could eat their salad trio everyday! They offer so many delicious salads but the Kale Salad is my favorite! Also, their catering side, Gourmet Food Works catered my wedding on July 4th and everything was outstanding! The set up, execution, tear down was all perfect and the food was delicious! We received so many compliments on the food!

The daily specials at this place make it so hard not to eat here every day! Our employees go here for lunch a few times a week because the food is so great and it is very affordable. Did I mention that the soup is to die for? This is a great little lunch spot that you have to check out if you are in the area. Be sure to bring your appetite though, the combos are quite massive.

I have been eating lunch here for about 2 months now that I work in the area. Food has been consistently great, service is good and pricing for the quality and quantity of food is hard to beat. Love that they do specials also for when Im feeling something a little different. Co-workers recommended this place and now Ive continued to recommend it since my first time.

We had their catering branch, Gourmet Food Works, cater our wedding. The prices were the lowest of anywhere we found on the area, and yet the food tasted the best! Amin is very passionate about what he does, and will do whatever he can to make your event perfect. Other caterers take note, this place has set the bar very high so you better step your game up.

Ive been eating here for over 20 years now. The owners are wonderful and get to know you. The food is delicious and there is always a line (that moves quickly). They have a variety of sandwiches, salad, soups, and sides. Theres something for everyone.

Great service. Delicious food. The manager, Ivan, is wonderful, trying to accommodate everything we wanted for our daughters wedding. Thank you very much! We recommend him/them to everyone that wants an affordable and delicious food.

The best beef sandwich I ever had was here. Surprisingly tender and good! Gets very crowded at lunch time and counter service gets confusing, Need to know what you want as they get a little testy when its crowded.

My wife and I had a wonderful lunch in the comfortable atmosphere of the Picnic Basket. Handmade sandwiches with fresh ingredients. We will not hesitate to use their catering services at our next family event.

I have been going to this establishment since I was a child and the quality has never changed. Great bread and meats. The tuna mac is to die for and the sandwiches too.

Always excellent with heaping sandwiches. As good today as when they opened. Go here often and make a special trip. The super combo is filling and inexpensive.

Excellent sandwich & salad restaurant. The expansion a few years back really helps with seating. Dont fear the line - these guys are fast and delicious!

Very expansive for breakfast - The size of my cereals with Yoghurt was ridicolous!

Where else can you get a 1/2 sandwich that tastes better than one from home.
