Word on the street
What locals are saying
Circe's Grotto is a closet-sized, counter-order sandwich shop tucked one block off the tourist corridor on Wentworth, running a tight lunch-only window that rewards the regulars who plan around it. The menu — made-to-order paninis, wraps, and salads on fresh bread with local ingredients — punches well above its square footage; the Tommy McBee panino and the Sprouted Turkey are the repeat-offender orders, and portions consistently run oversized. Seating is scarce, the noon rush is real, and the staff's easy, surf-casual energy is half the reason people keep coming back.
