What people say, in short

Turkey and the Wolf is a sandwich spot people recommend for lunch, with the heirloom tomato sandwich singled out when tomatoes are in season and the collard green melt praised as a standout vegetarian option. The fried bologna sandwich and head cheese tacos also have fans, and one visitor counts the bologna among the country's best sandwiches. Not everyone is won over: one diner found it overrated despite the buzz, another was let down, one objects to the price of a bologna sandwich, one says the sandwich is very greasy, and another calls the food mediocre and fatty without much flavor.
