I've always enjoyed Jersey Mike's sandwiches, even though I don't get to come here very often and…read morethis location in Visalia was clean and well kept. The food was delicious, the sandwiches were fresh, and overall, I had a good experience. You can definitely taste the quality, and it's a solid choice when you're craving a good sub. My only real complaint is that it's a little on the pricey side. I don't mind paying a bit more for a good sandwich, but it does add up, especially if you're feeding more than one person and then making it a meal with chips and a drink. The other frustrating part was the rewards program. I wasn't able to get points for my purchase because I didn't have the app downloaded and ready to go right then and there. Basically, I missed out on earning points because I didn't sign up fast enough. I understand how rewards programs work, but it would be nice if there were a little more flexibility for customers. Allowing me to add my receipt after the fact would have been nice. Overall, great sandwiches and a clean location, but the prices and rewards system keep this from being a five-star experience.

Other than that; no complaints. Service I've heard is super nice and I can report that it still is. Super friendly mom and pop sandwich shop making some very good sandwiches. Can't discuss ambiance yet until I can make my way down to see it for myself. This sandwich took me by surprise. For $13 you get a ten inch sub. It was packaged nice, it looked big and full of meat. Bonus there cause alot of places get skimpy, they sure don't. The inclusion of mayo was different but not bad, It gave an added butteriness to the overall flavor which was nice. The meat itself was seasoned, maybe a little over salty at first, but again, this sandwich was one that really grows on you. The bread was soft, a little chewy but added to the texture to add another positive note. It was a sandwich so good, it was absolutely worth finishing. It's made me want to come back and try out a cold sandwich and even the Mexican food they have on the menu. I'm big on an Asada Burrito and they make one! So can't wait for the next time to come down and give them another try!

Was driving down the 198 and needed a place to eat. I came across the Visalia Mall and decided…read morethat I wanted to eat something at the food court. With such a large selection of places to eat at, I found myself wanting everything-- anything sounds good when you're hungry, am I right?-- and soon I decided I would try somewhere I've never been to before, Charley's Grilled Subs. I first came across Charley's and found a rather welcoming cashier ready to take my order. I have never eaten at Charley's so I asked the cashier, who seemed to have this mesmerizing smile, for recommendations. Soon enough I was given a Bacon 3 Cheese Meal including fries and a soda (in which I substituted for their specialty blueberry lemonade). I was absolutely grateful for the cashier's recommendation as I started to eat the meal. I had the option of adding seasoning to my fries, in which I took advantage of in order to provide more flavor to my crispy, fresh fries. The specialty blueberry lemonade surprised me as Charley's includes actual blueberries into my lemonade that gives a much more unique and refreshing component to the drink. The main entree, the Bacon 3 Cheese, was absolutely phenomenal. I loved how the sandwich was full of different, unique flavors from a variety of cheeses, how the bacon provided a savory taste to compliment the saltiness of the cheeses, and how the crunchy, buttery bread component helped to pull the whole sandwich into one delightful experience. I really would like to thank whoever the cashier was for providing me with such an amazing sandwich, and I would now like to try everything else on the menu. If you are reading this, whoever gave me the order, I am grateful for your recommendation and service, despite not having ever experienced a place like Charley's Grilled Subs!

We stopped in at El Mana for breakfast and had a great time from the moment we walked in! The staff welcomed us with a smile and even brought out some fresh chicharrones with red salsa on the house, which was a nice touch. Everything tasted fresh and homemade, the plates were big, and the food came out hot. The place was clean, parking was easy, and our server was really friendly, which made the meal even better. The atmosphere was great! But the food is what won us over. The breakfast plates were hearty and filling, and the tortillas were so fresh and tasty that they honestly stood out. You can tell everything is made with care! Give El Mana a try, I am glad I did! read more

Absolutely loved this place! The food was fresh, flavorful, and tasted homemade. The breakfast plates were generous, the tortillas were delicious, and everything came out hot and perfectly prepared. The salsa had just the right amount of kick. What really stood out was the friendly service and welcoming atmosphere. You can tell they care about their customers and take pride in their food. If you're looking for an authentic Mexican breakfast spot with great portions, reasonable prices, and amazing flavors, this is definitely worth a visit. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

I seldom write reviews while on the road, but let me tell you, if you're in the area and you want…read moresome good and tasty breakfast food, look no further, this is it!! We had the chilaquiles with steak, for my wife is a chilaquiles aficionado, the steak was cooked exactly as we wanted it, and the seasoning on the steak was simple yet exquisite. While the chilaquiles were some of the best we have had. We also had the pork chops and eggs, and the chops were cooked to tenderness and juiciness. And the toppings on the chops were fresh and complimented the chops nicely. We could tell all the food ingredients were fresh and reflected this in the flavor and quality of the food. I seldom finish hash browns on any dishes I order for breakfast food, and let me tell you, I licked the plate clean. The ambient in the restaurant was very quiet and homly. And the customer service was exceptional nonetheless. I wish we lived closer to this place so we could come back to it more frequently. If you haven't tried it, try it and you won't regret it. It is important to mention that one dish being ordered that we kept on hearing over and over was the old fashioned breakfast plate. Which I'm sure must be just as good as the dishes we ordered. Price was not expensive considering the value and amount of food you get. The reviews this place has are well earned and makes justice to their reputation. The bathroom was clean and well kept for those who would like to know. Try it and you won't regret it. Cheers!!!

When we arrived we were the only people in the restaurant, but so long as that doesn't bother you, it is worth a visit! We had the quesabirria as an appetizer, which was very tasty. The appetizer was huge, which I feel justified the price ($16). For dinner, we split the two enchilada combo with rice & beans, which was also enjoyable. The green sauce was spicier than expected but overall we both were happy with it! Again, enough to split, so I felt the price was justified ($16). The only item we tried that I did not feel was justifiably priced was the churro and ice cream dessert. I've had fresher churros and ice cream from a local food truck for almost half the cost, and unfortunately the dessert just left a lot to be desired for the $13 cost. The churros were fairly hard and the ice cream had ice chips throughout; I'm guessing it's not a frequently ordered dish. Flavor was great, but for $13 I would have expected better quality. All in all it was a satisfactory visit and I wouldn't be opposed to coming back!
