As a…read morefirst time customer who lives on the complete opposite side of town, I decided to grab a bite while nearby. I saw the reviews (4.6 stars at the time) and thought I'll give it a try. Boy, was that a good decision. The staff was incredible in terms of service, recommendations, and made it feel like I had been a consistent customer for years. I grabbed the "ribeye in a sack" and tatertots with a drink, it shook out to $15. It tasted like $150. Now I will come back again for sure, even if it is out the way. If you happen to be the area, don't think twice. Make the right choice. You will not be disappointed. Thank you again Andy', see yall soon.

Off a recommendation from my regional director, I drove to Andy's sandwich shop which is literally…read more3 minutes away. I called in my order in and waited 2 minutes and was out the door. Andy's has a wide dining room and I know it get crowded. $14 dollars got me a Reuben all the way, French fries and an enormous drink. I did not get napkins and a straw in the bag but I did not ask either. The Reuben was hot and fresh. The fresh were warm and unsweetened Ice tea was oh so cold with a lot of ice to wash it all down. All and all, Andy' s sandwich shop was worth the trip in 3 minutes.

This was my hubby's favorite spot in town to get an egg salad sandwich. He said this location (and…read moreonly this location!) made it fresh every day and did it right! When teen and I were nearby we decided to pay homage to Dad and go in and have lunch. Of course I got the egg salad sandwich and teen ordered an Animal Sub. I remember Mark always asked them to toast the bread twice, so I did the same. The sandwich comes out on warm toasty bread, and is overflowing with egg salad. Truly - get a fork! You'll need one. Add a dollop of salt & pepper and that's all you need for a yummy sandwich. I can only eat half of their 6", so it's nice to have another half to eat later or the next day for lunch. Teen's sub was hot and she said it was fantastic. Staff is pleasant and quick to respond if you have a need.

This is a larger restaurant with a good bit of indoor seating. The menu is large; loaded with hot and cold subs, hot dogs, soups and more. I got the Italian and really enjoyed it. The sub was hearty-- loaded with meat and veggies. The staff was great. The service was quick! There was a bit of a line and I was in and out without 10 minutes!

We had dinner at ClarkeBros over in Riverside this evening. They're at 2545 Riverside Avenue, right…read moreacross from St Vincent with parking available at the side of their entrance. This is one of those places that we love but haven't been to in far too long. We both tried things that were new to each of us tonight as well, which was cool. I ordered The Ole Smokie, with everything on it and choose cheddar cheese. My first thought when it was brought to the table was "oh, I'll probably have to go at this with a fork & knife" but I decided to give it a shot as intended. I'm glad I did because the bread held up surprisingly well! As far as ingredients go, the brisket was good and smokey. There was a good mix of everything else and more than enough cheddar. My wife ordered the Chicken Cheesesteak. She also had a choice of cheese and she picked whizz. The thing that separates this from what people might expect is that it's chunks of chicken, not shredded chicken. She said that's not a bad thing at all, just a change from what some might exoect. She thought it was a welcome change. She liked their cheese whizz a lot and liked the roll as always, so she was glad she tried it. It's worth noting that both sandwiches were big enough that we both took half of each home. I didn't get the name of the two people that were working there this evening, but I'd still like to give then a shout out. They were both incredibly patient with the customers ahead of us and they didn't make us feel rushed even though we were there fairly close to the time they close on Friday evenings. Another good visit to Clarke Bros. Here's hoping it doesn't take us so long to get back here again for the next visit!

They're open Monday through Friday, 6a.m. to 3p.m., and between customers standing in line and pick up orders, it rarely slows down. There's a dining room if you opt to eat in, but I often call ahead and take my order to go since I live nearby. Their daily lunch and combo specials are the way to go if you're a baller on a budget. The Hot Pastrami Sandwich Combo with Fries and a medium drink is only $7.99 (try it on a sub roll instead of regular bread), made to order, and always delicious. On Tuesdays, their lunch special is Country Fried Steak with White Gravy, Scalloped Potatoes, Green Beans, and a Biscuit for only $7.59. Their specials vary from day to day, so check out the menu pictures before making the trip! The owners are an Asian couple and always friendly when I'm there, even though they're constantly busy taking and filling orders. Whether you're there for breakfast or lunch, everything on the menu is fresh, tasty, and affordable, so stop in and show Stan's Sandwich Shop some love!

Huge portions and the best Cuban in Jax!…read more Blue Boy Sandwich in Jacksonville has the best Cuban sandwich I've found in the city, and I've been looking. What we got: Cuban Sandwich: Everything you want in a Cuban is here. The bread is pressed and toasty with a nice crunch on the outside and soft on the inside, and the layers of roasted pork, ham, Swiss, and pickles are perfectly balanced. Every bite is savory, tangy, and satisfying. Fried Oreos: Soooo good! And the portion is HUGE. I'm not exaggerating when I say you get your money's worth. It's generously stacked, filling, and easily one of the biggest sandwiches I've had. Come hungry, or plan on saving half for later (though you probably won't want to). The quality matches the size, too. Nothing feels skimped on or thrown together. It tastes like a sandwich made by people who know what a Cuban should be. If you're in Jacksonville and craving a real Cuban, this is your spot. I'll definitely be back to try the rest of the menu. Tip: Go hungry, because the sandwich is bigger than it looks!

Some restaurants survive for decades because of nostalgia. Others survive because they continue…read moremaking food worth coming back for. Blue Boy Sandwich Shop has been doing both since 1962. I stopped by for lunch after being invited to try their Cuban sandwich, a fitting challenge for a shop that has built its reputation on oversized portions and doing things the old fashioned way. The bread is baked in house, the mojo marinade is made from scratch, and that attention to detail shows up in every bite. Calling this sandwich "large" doesn't quite capture it. It's enormous. Thick enough to make you question your strategy before the first bite, and easily enough food for two, maybe even four lighter eaters. Inside the soft house-made bread is a generous stack of mojo marinated pulled pork, thick slices of ham, Swiss cheese, pickles, and mustard. It's substantial without feeling sloppy, every ingredient has a purpose. The timing of this visit couldn't have been better. I had just returned from two weeks in Miami, where Cuban sandwiches and Medianoches were part of my regular diet. Those flavors were still fresh in my memory. Blue Boy isn't trying to recreate Little Havana. This isn't served on traditional crusty Cuban bread, and that's perfectly fine. This is Jacksonville's interpretation, a Duval Cuban that respects the original while confidently doing its own thing. The pork is juicy and packed with citrus and garlic from the mojo. The ham adds saltiness, the Swiss melts into every layer, and the mustard and pickles provide the sharp, tangy contrast that every great Cuban needs. It checks every box while carving out its own identity. Some sandwiches are lunch. This one is lunch, dinner, and maybe tomorrow's snack if you somehow manage not to finish it all. Blue Boy proves that honoring tradition doesn't always mean copying it. Sometimes the best local classics are the ones that confidently become their own tradition.

My husband and I got food here thinking it would be a delicious hole in the wall since it's always…read morebusy in the morning. WRONG. I got the Philly cheesesteak. Hubby got an Italian sub. So wrong on so many levels. The Italian sub was not flavorful. It literally tastes like they put cheap Italian dressing on some cheap meat and American cheese and called it a day. The Philly was horrible. The meat, fine. The toppings??? BANANA PEPPERS????? American sliced cheese with shredded beef and canned mushrooms. CANNED. I got food poisoning later on from it all. I will say if you go make sure you look at reviews first on what's popular. Giving the benefit of the doubt we didn't get something good... BUT.. If you are a restaurant you shouldn't be serving crap food anyway.

The ambiance is very sandwich shoppy- the ladies who work there are extremely kind, talkative and welcoming! The camel rider was the best! Will be back to get that! The steak n sack was similar to a Philly cheesesteak- moist and delicious! The roast beef was real roast beef (well done) with the home made flavor and deliciousness. I prefer med rare, and never mentioned that so I'm unsure if they offer different, but will ask next time! The kids were happy to have hotdogs, chips and the best limeade! We will be back!
