Nestled near Costco and across from a few dirty magazine shops, Grinders is a shining jewel in the rough. The sandwiches are creative, east-cost / Italian, authentic and delicious! After sampling my…

Sandwiches alone deserve full 5 stars. A good comparison in level of flavor would be to Freemont's Caribbean Paseo. Grinder's sandwiches are Paseo's Italian Equivalent. Crusty rolls and chewy yet…
