This review is for the roast beef and roast beef only. A while back, I fell down the rabbit hole of an r/Boston thread that debated where to get roast beef and Mike's ranked as one of the top places particularly for its authenticity and value (apparently, Redditors are staunch in their belief that North Shore places should be avoided, or anywhere else that requires a fork and knife to eat the sandwich). Anyway, we pulled up on our way to Costco and ... my expectations were not high. It seemed like a typical fried food joint right across the street from the Encore.* Well, this is a lesson to never judge a book by its cover because the sandwich was phenomenal. There's a reason why that sign looks super vintage, it's been around for decades. We got the super beef three way (BBQ, mayo, and cheese), and after the first bite, I wished we had each gotten our own sandwich. The onion roll was super chewy and pillowy, the beef tender, the sauces combining in perfect harmony. UGH. I'm not a beef person at all but I could've eaten the whole thing myself. If I'm in the area next time, I might take it to go - there's not much seating and you're just looking out at a parking lot and the street. PARKING: Just a warning that if you pull in from Broadway and park on the front-facing side, you may have to back out onto Broadway, which gets pretty busy. There are spots further along the other side. *I looked up later to find that Mike's was sold last year for $5.5 million to the same development group that owns the Encore. Hope it sticks around!

This place is good for quick greasy food. I love that it is open early at 9:30 am. For those of us who go to work early, the 9:30 am "lunch" comes in very handy.

Bring a scale. I bet if you order a super and a regular after 9pm they weigh the same. Last time I was here the beef wasn’t even properly sliced. A shell of what it once was.
Famous spot for roast beef. The lady in cash was very kind and helpful. I got the Super Roast Beef 3 way and onion rings. Onion rings needed some salt but the roast beef was great (although a little cheese or mayo would help more).A solid 7.5-8/10 in my opinion. Great place for a roast beef.Dietary restrictions: Leave the cheese out if you’re lactose intolerantParking: Limited parking optionsKid-friendliness: Yes; it is kid-friendly.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes; wheelchair accessible

The beef is solid. A little on the small size for a super but still good. The fries were good as well. Had one when it came out and it was hot and fresh. They got a little soggy on the drive home but that's to be expected. The onion rings were not great. Great value though and maybe the closest beef spot to Boston. Food came out quick as well. Worth a trip. Would give 3.5 if I could
Always great !!
