Dont sleep on these little spots. That's what this city is about! Small sandwich shop with big flavor!!! I went into this small local corner shop and got "The Cristopher" Great great sandwich and will definitely try another sandwich next time. The gentleman behind the counter could not have been more personable.

I ordered Compton's for a cozy breakfast in bed on a Saturday morning. It was insanely delicious and hit the spot! I got the Greenpointer, which came topped with hot honey and a hash brown. This may be my new go-to! I can't wait to come back for lunch and try out some of those sandwiches. I highly recommend this.

My husband heard great things about Compton's, so we decided to drive 30 minutes from Long Island to try their sandwiches. It was around 10 am, the girl who took my order was nice and helpful. We got the mozzarella sticks, french fries, chopped cheese, Philly cheesesteak and The Jimmy sandwich. My order took a while- ppl who ordered a single sandwich after me got theirs first, which kind of irked me. We weren't a big fan of the mozzarella stick breading- it tasted hard (overfried) without having much flavor. The entire family loved the fries and the chopped cheese- both were seasoned to perfection. The chopped cheese is comparable to the one @ Hajji's in Harlem. The Philly cheesesteak was disappointing because the meat wasn't chopped thin enough, so there were random large chunks that were very chewy, and there wasn't enough cheese whiz. The Jimmy sandwich was great with just the right amount of spiciness (my fave). If you're craving some good sandwiches, there are some diamonds in the rough here.

I Brought my daughter along w me so we could try some sandwiches from here she got the ROB which was basically like a Turkey bacon club. She did enjoy it it was a pretty big sandwich and looked good! For myself I brought the crispy fish unfortunately nothing about this sandwich was crispy and I ate it right away, it had cheese, arugula and lime aoli. This place looks to be better for people that eat meat than non meat eaters in my opinion. The location is small I do believe they had an area outside for outdoor seating.

Fantastic sandwich destination in LIC (but pretty much Astoria, if you ask me). Ordered the Burrata combo and it was as decadent as the description. The salt from the cured meats was balanced perfectly by the creamy burrata and fresh mozzarella. The vodka sauce kinda got lost in the mix. Ordered the Jaclyn to try a hot sandwich. The eggplant was perfectly fried and the balsamic fig glaze was the star condiment. I wish I could get that as a side and dip the sandwich. Couldn't get enough. This place has so many amazing sandwich options, it was hard to settle on 2 for this trip. Might have to come back and sample another 2. Also not too far from the ferry so you can enjoy this with a riverfront view!

Yelp's Summer of Sandwiches is a great way of spotlighting local businesses that I might not have ever visited on my own. I dread coming to Astoria, but for Compton's delicious sandwiches, I would make an exception. I found parking on a lazy Wednesday afternoon, a couple of blocks away. On Google Streetview, Compton's had a covered street hutch for dining, but has since been removed and there are 3-4 tables and chairs on the sidewalk now. Ordering my sandwiches to go, I waited a few minutes and heard my cheesesteak being made by the satisfying pinging of the spatula hitting the steel flattop grill chopping up the steak. The first sandwich to come out of the kitchen though, was the Burrata Combo. It's a great cold hero sandwich with lots of crusty & creamy mozzarella on top of layers of hot & sweet soppressata, ham, prosciutto & arugula topped with their vodka sauce. The Vodka Chicken Parm hero was pretty good also with a crispy fried chicken breast topped with mozzarella and again with vodka sauce. But my favorite had to be the Spencer (named after my Yelp buddy?). It is a tasty, perfectly seasoned cheesesteak topped with provolone, peppers, onions and sauced with red pepper aioli. It was like perfection on a slab of bread. I think taking home it home took away from it's full flavor, so I can't wait to come back to try out all the other sandwiches for breakfast, lunch & dinner and eat them on the sidewalk, piping hot!

What a great sandwich shop. Great staff and awesome menu options. The sandwiches are made very well. You get what you pay for here! Quality ingredients and great combinations of ingredients equal an awesome sandwich. I will be back to try the CHADIE

Some of the best sandwiches in Queens without a doubt. Bit pricey but what the heck. I just wish the drive into Astoria and finding parking was much easier but yeah, great sandwiches are worth the travel. Their "Tony" and "Chadie" are both Must haves.

Holy moly sweet mother of god! Okay, I'll be the first to admit, ordering a meatless sandwich is kindaaaa sacrilegious... but this gem... checks all the boxes! I can't believe I'm saying this but I'm so satisfied! I was originally concerned I'd have to order this and a chop cheese to feed my appetite, but the jaclyn is a complete showstopper. Seriously, I didn't think it was physically possible to fill up on a veggie sandwich aside from mushrooms, but I'm a brand new woman! Top 5 sandwich for me, fosho
