    I drive by this place multiple times per week and I was finally able to pull in and try it out! I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious it was. I ordered their breakfast sandwich (breaking my diet..) but I don't regret it for a second! I actually don't remember the last time I enjoyed a sandwich so much! The woman taking my order was so incredibly sweet, I really enjoyed the bit of time we chatted. Very genuine and kind person!

    I ordered the French Dip and while it was good I have to mention that it had very little meat on it. The au jus was very bland too. I probably would not order it again. The cafe was clean and the order came in a timely manner.

    Cute clean inside

    Yelpers didn't disappoint! Such a cute, clean cafe. Very friendly service. It will make your day! Prices are a bargain, especially breakfast. Tried the breakfast wrap today, delicious & only $5. Get the spicy mayo on the side if you can't handle spice. Will be back to try the sandwiches & soup soon. Check it out near IKEA.

    Hot Italian grinder and king club.

    First off upon walking up to the door, the owner came and opened the door for us. Such a bright and vibrant man and lovely to talk to. Easy enough to say.. I'm never going to subway or Jersey mikes etc. these sandwiches hit! And they aren't crazily expensive. Such a good sandwich, I got the Hot Italian Grinder and it's a 10/10. My fiance got a king club and it tastes like my childhood on a hot sunny day at the pool. Loved everything about my experience here and will be back!

    Italian Grinder w/ frys

    Ok, so I admit I have been in error for not trying this place sooner!! Finally decided to stop in for a grinder.. Oh man am I glad I did. First off very clean and tidy place with very friendly people. We were behind the lunch crowd so order was quick and easy. The Italian Grinder was awesome to say the least. The bread (roll) was toasty yet freshly soft. The meat and cheese was prepared perfectly, and the "shoestring " frys were fresh and hot,, even the fry sauce was good. All in all it was a VERY filling and deliteful lunch! I can't wait to go back!

    Tuna sandwich
    Debra W.

    I Wanted to try a new place for lunch and decided to try this place based on Yelp reviews. I placed my order over the phone and pick up was fast and easy. The employees were very nice and the place was pretty busy. It was also very clean. I was originally going to give 4 stars because it's like a 3.5 for me but I don't really ever seeing myself go back here. The food wasn't so good, that it made me feel like, "yep, I've definitely gotta back". Unfortunately, it just didn't do that for me. The soup beef and veggie soup we ordered, livery had one cube of meat and maybe a couple slivers of celery. It was all broth. The tuna sandwich was thick and a little messy to eat but satisfactory to eat. The Italian grinder had good flavor but mostly bread and little on the meat. The food was hot and definitely fresh though!

    This is my go-to lunch spot, I really love the Italian grinder sandwich. It's always the same and delicious. They are quick and the staff is always so nice. I also love their breakfast burritos, the hash brown has the best crunch to it and it's cheesy. Yum! Highly recommend

    French Special; Egg, Cheese, Bacon, Sausage, French Toast
    Raul A.

    This was the best customer service and great atmosphere, I walked in and there wasn't anyone, but a few minutes later a lot of people showed up everyone was greeted well. The breakfast was delicious and fulfilling the orange juice was great. I could've ordered another plate but I was on a tight schedule. Next time I'm back in town this will be the first place I will come.

    Meat was actually thinner than the cheese.

    If you're in the Kent area and looking for a sandwich shop that consistently delivers, Jersey…read moreMike's Subs has been my go-to spot for years now--and for good reason. Walking into this location, the interior is clean, simple, and welcoming. It has that classic sandwich shop feel: bright lighting, an open counter where you can watch your sub being made, and a steady but efficient flow of customers. It's not overly fancy, but it doesn't need to be--the focus here is clearly on the food and the experience. The staff keeps things moving smoothly, and there's a sense of familiarity if you've been coming here as long as I have. I actually made the switch from Subway years ago, and I haven't looked back since. What stands out most about Jersey Mike's is the value. You're getting a noticeably larger portion, especially with a "regular" size, which honestly feels more like what other places would call a large. It's filling, satisfying, and worth every dollar. My two staples are the #13 The Original Italian and the #2 Jersey Shore's Favorite--and you truly can't go wrong with either. The #13 is packed with a variety of meats that all complement each other, while the #2 keeps things simple with provolone and ham, letting the quality of the ingredients really shine. That's what I appreciate most: the simplicity. There's nothing overly complicated here--just fresh bread, good meats, crisp toppings, and a balance that works every single time. Everything tastes fresh, at least in my experience, and you can genuinely taste the difference compared to competitors. The bread has the right texture, the ingredients don't feel processed or stale, and the sandwiches are assembled with care. It's that consistency that keeps me coming back. No matter how many times I've ordered from this location over the years, I've never had an issue with quality. That's rare, especially for a chain. At this point, ordering from this Jersey Mike's has become second nature. I know exactly what I'm going to get, and they deliver on that expectation every time. That level of reliability, combined with solid portions and fresh ingredients, makes it an easy choice. I'll absolutely continue ordering from this location--it's one of those places you can depend on when you want something quick, filling, and consistently good.

You'll just have to remember that the location is part of the complex of off-white office buildings. Just look for unit# 269 right off S. 41st (you can see it from the street). Now onto the food.... I ordered the Shoyu Chicken and the Mochiko Chicken combo which comes with white rice and their Mahi Mahi Salad which was so nice and creamy. Everything was very flavorful, portion size was good and presentation was nice. The owner had just made fresh malasadas so I ordered a couple chocolate ones -- so good! Fluffy goodness! Haha! I plan to try the other flavors on my next visit! There is some seating inside but had to get back to work so took my order to go. They have two menu "binders" with photos and descriptions.

I would definitely recommend them for your Hawaiian and fusion cravings whenever you're in the Renton area.

When my order was ready, a few orders were ready at the same time. It was a little chaotic. It's hard to give them a rave review. The burger scene is crowded. Firebite Burger and Katsuburger are tough to beat. And Red Robin is across the street. The "haystack double" at Red Robin is only $12.99, with bottomless fries..
