Delete. Nothing here that indicates that it is notable. No WP:RELY citations. Appears to be WP:SPAM. Student7 (talk) 17:26, 28 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Fails to pass general notability, since it has no sources other than the store website itself. If we could find a local news article and one national coverage (on a TV show or national publication), this might barely meet WP:NOTE. Article creator is clearly in love with sandwiches, perhaps including spam... BusterD (talk) 22:23, 28 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. gNews search reveals a number of mentions-in-passing of the restaurant in the Rutland Herald ($). The portions of the articles available for free make it clear that none of them are significant in focusing on the restaurant itself, but that the restaurant is mentioned as a backdrop or incidental focus, as in the obituary of the original owner or as a backdrop for life in town. Nothing appears in any other news publication visible through gNews search, so there is no notability beyond the town where the restaurant is located. And not much there. I agree this restaurant fails WP:NOTE. Geoff ^{Who, me?} 18:08, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Very limited sources on article which at any rate fail to meet WP:ORG since none of them cover the subject in depth or make any attempt at showing the article's significance. This one will have to go. Jay _{Σεβαστός}^discuss 19:43, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
