""I met Dave in his Chagrin Falls store and had the absolute best sandwich of my adult life. I applaud his quirky approach-very original. He is affable and uniquely philosophical, as are his sandwiches."" -Geraldo Rivera ""What a colorful life. And what fantastic subs. Dave created a sub empire out of a little shop in tiny Chagrin Falls. Amazing!"" -Michael Belkin, Live Nation/Belkin Productions ""A revealing and psychedelic life journey-always dreaming big but never forgetting his past, culminating in the creation of the best and most unique sub chain in the country. Enjoy the ride in this soul-baring and entertaining trip fantastic!"" -Thomas R. Brule, Brule Law Firm, LLC ""Not just Chagrin Falls, but all over northeast Ohio. They are great subs and I have always loved the concept. Great job, Dave!"" -Judson A. Kline, Mayor of Orange Village, Ohio ""I went to high school with Dave Lombardy. There is no doubt that he was destined for great things. I remember when he opened his first sub shop; he made Subway look like a homemade lemonade stand. Dave was just incredible. Obviously, other people realized that, too, and bought franchises. His book tells us the story of how it happened. It's a lesson we can all learn from and build our businesses accordingly. Thanks, Dave, for giving us the secret sauce to success."" - David Spero, President/CEO, David Spero Management, Inc ""What my parents created, people can only hope to do. It will forever be a part of their lives and will always remain 'Dave's Cosmic Subs.'"" -Brandon Lombardy ""I remember the days when I was a little girl, I would beg my father almost every night to let me climb into his two-door Mercedes to turn on the car radio and blast ""Ride My Seesaw"" by The Moody Blues. My father taught me true love for music. When my parents first opened Dave's in Chagrin Falls, they asked me to paint a small mural inside the shop, which, to this day, is still there. Little did I know then that the artistry and drive in my parents would come through me in every aspect of my life today. The energetic atmosphere, the 70s electric tunes, the juicy Italian sandwiches-it's the love story of Dave's Cosmic Subs. Proud of my parents and my brother for believing and building a company that will live on forever."" -Rachael Lombardy ""My husband created something that people said he never could. Nothing's been as gratifying as watching him prove them all wrong."" -Maryann Lombardy
