Delicacy? More like soul trash (excellent Toro y Moi tape). I say that with love as someone who orders there.

I had it for the first time a few weeks ago and I thought it was pretty dry. Needs to have some brown gravy on the sandwich to help it go down a little easier. I do highly recommend their chicken parmesan with spaghetti though.
