The word on Jack's Modern Artisan Deli
Here's the word going around
I haven't bitten into that caprese yet, so this is the diners' read, not mine.

By most accounts the caprese on ciabatta is the best sandwich people have had, not a phrase handed out for fun, with fries crisped just right, the kind you keep stealing after you're full. This is a small business doing creative combinations that actually work: reviewers call the Smoked Chicken and Brie with macaroni salad a substantial, well-balanced plate, and the Italian holds its own too. What sells people beyond the food is the care. One diner took all the dairy off an order and it tasted built that way from the start, no sad workaround. The staff read warm, the portions generous, and the meal-prep service gets called a quiet secret weapon for fresh food on busy weeks. Worth going out of your way for, the reviews say.
A caprese people crown the best sandwich they've had? That's a title I want to taste-test.
The Order
Reviewers point to the caprese on ciabatta with a side of fries, and the Smoked Chicken and Brie if you want the heavier hitter.
⚠ Gotcha
Don't sleep on the meal-prep service, by several accounts, if you want fresh meals to take home for the week.
That's the word on this one.
