When I tell you I love Jersey Mike's, I mean it in a deep, borderline-spiritual way. Not many know…read morethis, but during my college days, I managed a Jersey Mike's. I had a small, scrappy team of 12 who could whip up sandwiches faster than a Formula 1 pit crew. Those were wild times. We didn't just make sandwiches; we made giants-absurd, cartoonishly large creations. These were Scooby-Doo-level sandwiches: towering monstrosities where you'd need two hands, a spotter, and maybe an engineering degree just to take a bite. I swear, some of those subs looked like they were designed to fuel Olympic athletes for an entire season. And the meat? Oh, you'd think we were carving up slabs for a medieval feast. But I digress, let's snap back to why we're really here. Today, I ordered the #8 (Club Sub), a turkey and ham classic with provolone, bacon, mayo, and a crisp layer of lettuce and tomatoes. Now, let me be clear: I'm usually a #9 guy. The #9 is my sandwich soulmate, my ride-or-die sub, the one I'd defend in a court of law if it ever came to that. For reasons unknown, the app didn't let me select it, and I'll admit, there was a moment of panic. But then I looked at the #8, and I thought, "Alright, let's give you a go." And let me tell you--this sandwich was beautiful. The turkey was tender, the ham savory, and the bacon crisped to perfection. That mayo brought everything together, and the veggies were fresh enough to remind me of my mum's garden back in the day (a bit of an overstatement, but you get the point). I got it "Mike's Way," of course, because who wouldn't? The vinegar, olive oil, and seasoning drizzle made this sub sing like Sinatra on a good day. Picking it up in person added another layer to the experience. There's just something about walking into a Jersey Mike's. The atmosphere hits you like a warm wave of nostalgia--slicing machines humming in the background, the aroma of freshly baked bread in the air, and the hustle of the team working in perfect sandwich-making harmony. It's fast-paced, but not rushed, with a sense of order and camaraderie that feels oddly comforting. It's the kind of place that makes you feel like part of the process, even if all you're doing is watching from the counter. This Jersey Mike's team absolutely smashed it. Their focus and hustle reminded me of my own crew back in the day--working hard, probably having a laugh or two in between orders. So to those workers today: Enjoy your time with each other. These days may seem fleeting now, but someday, you'll look back and realize you were building something special--sandwiches and camaraderie alike. I'm proud of you lot. Keep making those subs with heart and pride. Five stars, no question.

He became, in my opinion, belligerent and rude. The staff tried to placate him, but he wasn't listening to their explanations. After a few tense minutes he left. I know his behavior upset the young lady who had dealt with him. She and another employee stood their ground while still being polite and professional. Kudos to them for keeping their cool.

Great for groups, families, or even a casual solo outing where you just want to sit back and enjoy good food without any pressure. Bonus points for the laid-back atmosphere--it's easy, it's fun, and it just works.

The 2 words have evolved into so much more, one would even dare to say it's even evolved into a belief or fantasy. When the Israelites wonder the dessert for 40 years i can only think they were doing to search for something. If cheba hut had existed at that time im sure those 40 years would have been cut short. The environment not only leaves a warm feeling but becomes a beacon! Cheba hut is what lamps are to moths, a light house to a sailor in a storm, a horse to a cowboy, a home run to a baseball player, a touchdown to tom Brady, a god to an atheist, a candle light in the darkness that is life. The staff and restaurant itself deserves so much more praise for the amazing and clean experience provided. If there was one word to describe Cheba hut, it would and could only be........ utopia. Cheers to the most amazing place on earth! Also lovely job to the management team!!

I'm not sure what happened however, there is ONE thin slice of turkey meat, and a CRAP TON, of lettuce, onions, tomatoes, pickle and sauce, and an extremely thin sliced piece of bacon. My sandwich is supposed to be a Turkey Sandwich however, it's more so vegetables, with the slice of turkey being an afterthought. Being that each sandwich costs a little over $11, I was highly disappointed... If I wanted a veggie sandwich, I would have ordered one, being that the options were available. It's a one and done for me... sadly We really wanted something other than, Jersey Mikes... I digress

You can taste the lemongrass but not overpowering. My favorite part of the bowl is the nuoc mam sauce that is poured over the warm noodles. Then you let it sit for a minute so the sauce is absorbed. Oh my Yum! Aside from the noodle bowl, we stop by once a week to grab my daughter's favorite mango slushy with lychee jelly. Such a delicious combination. The drink is smooth and not too sweet. We had the chance to try their mochi donuts before the machine broke. They are smaller than the mochi donuts that we usually buy from the other side of town. But their donuts are always fresh and the icing is not too sweet. It is sad that they don't make donuts anymore. I was heartbroken when the lady at the counter told me that they will stop making the donuts because they wont be replacing the donut machine. I'm so happy that this little gem opened up by my neighborhood amidst the fast food franchises. I hope for this business to thrive as we need more small businesses like Daily Banh Mi in the Potranco area that serves good food.

The whole menu is à la carte, by the time you get a burger, fries, and a drink, you're easily looking at a $20+ meal for one person, which feels steep for what you get. Both of our burgers were overcooked. They'll make peanut butter a topping but can't get the patties right? Make it make sense.

Always hate when food trucks sell out, though it is understandable. Friendly employees, ready to answer any questions regarding the menu. What did we choose tonight? *Fried Mushrooms were unsatisfying. Slacking on flavor, breading overpowered. *Southwest Turkey Melt Sandwich, full of creative ingredients. Avocado, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, pico de gallo, and even some kettle chips! Turkey was tasty deli thin cut, flavors came together well. Texas Toast was grilled with the right amount of butter an oil (you know how often places serve it drenched in oil!). I will say that the cheese was a little firm and the sandwich a little lukewarm for a "melt". Chose *Potato Salad as the side, which was tastier than expected; appreciated that there was not as much mustard or vinegar as most. *Mushroom Swiss Burger ironically had cheese that was far more melted than the Turkey Melt. Which was awesome, of course. Fresh and flavored sliced mushrooms (unlike them fried ones), a tasty fat patty (moist, tender, maybe a little extra flavor needed), and buttery, slightly sweet buns. Overall excellent. Came with *Fries, which were satisfactory; some were burnt and dry. Dessert was a *Fried Twinkie with Raspberry Drizzle. Oh, it was heavenly.

Charles and Luke assisted me and ensured that my chicken sandwich was made to perfection. The sandwich was piping hot and I enjoyed a nice cold lemonade to accompany my sandwich. As I ate, Charles and I struck up a conversation and I found out that he along with several crew members were fellow veterans.

After gobbling down my first half, Charles grabbed me a to go box for my sandwich and I even grabbed a hug on the way out.
