  La Bodega is one of those places that I always meant to visit. Now that I've done it, I feel dumb I haven't been eating here sooner. Tucked on the corner of Jefferson Avenue are some of the tastiest, most affordable sandwiches in the area. I was just telling a friend recently that I spend a lot of time in Tremont, but I'm not always up for the expensive fine dining. Enter: La Bodega. My new favorite.
  
  Yes, as others stated, this is a small sandwich shop. But really, does one need a Marie Antoinette style seating arrangement for sandwiches? No. Just grab a seat in the cozy back area adorned with local art or settle outside on one of the small bistro tables. La Bodega has a huge menu (see my photos!) with plenty of options for all dietary restrictions and taste buds. But not to mention, their menu is just crave-worthy! I'm not one of those people who ever *craves* a sandwich, but La Bodega changed my mind. I had the #30 Chicken Salad wrap with Lemon-Almond, Lettuce, Tomato, and Onion. It was huge and delicious. This chicken salad felt healthy, had a great lemon/almond flavor, and had me full for hours. I forget the number (#46?), but my friend loved his pizza style sub.
  
  Oh, and on the way out, the owner (I think), said, "Have a great day, thanks for coming in, Lauren." Now, 9/10, I usually introduce myself when I visit a new business. But on this day, it was a million degrees, I probably looked crazy and was slightly grumpy, so i'm not even sure if I introduced myself. It caught me off guard in the best way possible. What nice people! I'll be back very soon!

  The hummus wrap (19 I think) is just okay. Ask them to add hot sauce!! Giving 3 stars because I think the value is worth it, but it's also obvious no one vegan created this pita sandwich. I'd love to see some more creativity and options for non meat/cheese eaters!

  Excellent little sandwich shop on the near Westside. Plenty of hot and cold sandwiches to choose from and they have space inside or outside if you want to sit down and eat. I usually get the #27 but surely plan on trying other sandwiches since its so close to where I work.
  
  Good friendly staff and the food is made to order hot, fresh and quickly.

  Little sandwich shop with a big punch. Delicious made to order sandwiches, and the option of healthier choice sides such as fresh fruit or salad if your into that kind of thing.  Bag of bbq chips is usually good enough for me.

  First time here. Ordered 4 sandwiches and only one was half way decent. The veggie sub was 9.50 and it was ALL bread. There was ONE tiny strip of red onion , a few red peppers and not even a whole tomato on the WHOLE entire sub. Very disappointed.
