We ordered here for catering of 25 people - the sandwiches have been delicious. A little bit small for the price and don't trust the picture menu from 2915 no sandwich costs $5.99 any longer. They are mostly double in price :( That said in 2o24 to not accept any digital payment and credit card and only cash will get them one star off. But the sandwiches have been a success.

Get yourself the chicken teriyaki bowl or plate. It is so so good. I've never actually been to the store but I get it delivered all the time and it's by far my favorite place to get chicken teriyaki! Tender, flavorful, and delicious!! It's also so affordable, only $10 for the bowl. Where else would you get such a good portion for this price??

I was craving for sandwich during lunch hour and that was actually unusual. I thought about going to my favorite spot but decided to try something new and that was how I found Alex Sandwich. Alex Sandwich was managed by a Korean lady. I asked if her name was Alex, she told me she had no idea who that was and she took over the shop about two years ago. That was kind of funny. There were also teriyaki and Mexican dishes on the menu, plenty of selections for everyone. After browsing through the menu, I decided to go with spicy chicken sandwich. I also made it a combo with fries and a can of soda for $2 more. For to go order, I received a little bag of sliced pickled jalapeños that served as pickles. The fries was seasoned and tasted good. The sandwich though, it was actually WOAH good. Basically, it was a spicy chicken teriyaki stuffed in between two buns. It was tasty and texture excellent. Overall I was loving this place. It was quick, affordable, and tasty. They have free delivery with no minimum order. The only downside was cash only, but I can't wait to go back to try their steak sandwich.

We've been ordering lunch from Alex for years and have never been disappointed in the quality, service, and prices. We always get the Chicken Teriyaki Rice: stir-fried chicken + broccoli + onions come with a generous amount of rice, and a side salad (mainly iceberg lettuce). The rice plate also comes with a side of teriyaki sauce and a green chili sauce. I usually use neither because the stir-fried chicken on its own is already tasty! Other favorites: Spicy Chicken Sandwich and the Steak Sandwich. Both are really flavorful but on the greasier side. Can always expect Alex to deliver within 20 minutes of ordering and deliver plenty of taste without hurting the wallet!
