    Enjoy that sub and pickle.

    Firehouse Subs Fact: The founders behind Firehouse Subs -- two brothers who come from a family of firefighters  -- built their business from humble means. According to CNBC, Chris and Robin Sorensen only had $100 to their names when they first opened Firehouse Subs in Jacksonville, Florida in 1994. But the brothers believe that being broke led to the eventual success of their national sandwich chain. ― mashed.com How can you not love Firehouse Subs? I'm a fan of their Smokehouse Beef & Cheddar Brisket™ (USDA Choice beef brisket smoked for 16+ hours, cheddar, mayo, Sweet Baby Ray's® BBQ Sauce) and mac & cheese. The mac & cheese is always worth the couple extra bucks for the combination upgrade. Because you know what helps wash down a sandwich? More carbs! Yum! Great sub place. Come here, get a good meal, and enjoy life.

    Moldy Bread

    I was incredibly disappointed to find MOLDon my sandwich bread. I am shocked at the oversight, especially since this is VERY OBVIOUS mold. I normally love firehouse subs and I usually find the quality to be pretty standard across all locations, so I didn't think anything about trying a new location. I should have!!

    Firehouse has always been one of my go to sandwich chains, but this time left me wanting a little more. The service was poor and the food came out after about a 20 min wait with no other customers in the store. The food tasted average which is expected but was more upset about the overall experience.

    I just found out that they are running a program called name of the day. Name of the Day for 12/10: If your first name starts with Sh or Si, show your photo ID at any participating U.S. Firehouse Subs and get a free medium sub with any purchase. New name tomorrow. Due to nationwide product shortages, some locations may be unable to offer shredded lettuce as a topping. I will have to start keeping an eye out for that. I got their new Prime Rib Steak Sub that is being offered for a limited time only. It is a seated, slow-cooked prime rib, melted provolone, and caramelized onions with garlic mayo, deli mustard, lettuce, and tomato, all on a toasted sub roll. I had the garlic Mayo and the deli mustard on the side. What I now realize is that without those items the sandwich is quite plain. I thought I wouldn't like those spreads but they are actually really good. I guess next time I will just keep it on the sandwich.

    This is a 9.00 brisket sub

    Always loved firehouse. Good food good service. Tough to say I'm probably moving on to a different sandwich shop. Slow service, and the value is awful now. The medium sub is now about 3 inches wide and has about half as much meat. This location has always been solid but this trip was anything but. Manager was rudi ding a client and I was waiting to order, there were like 5 other people behind me. They had 4 employees cleaning and 1 making sandwiches. Needless to say food was not coming out like normal. I'm probably going to switch to Ike's or knuckles or even subway at this point. Sad

    STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING AND READ THIS--Portillo's at 7200 W Ray Rd in Chandler Has Just Redefined…read more"Heaven on a Plate" with the BIG BEEF DIPPED and That CHEESE SAUCE... OMG! I've had Italian Beef before. I've loved Italian Beef before. But nothing--NOTHING--prepared me for the transcendent, jaw-dropping, flavor-explosion experience that is ordering the Big Beef DIPPED at this Chandler location. If you haven't done it yet, you haven't lived. And if you've had it elsewhere but haven't had it here with their cheese sauce... well, buckle up, because you're about to discover your new favorite thing on the entire planet. From the second you walk into Portillo's on Ray Road, you can smell the magic--crisp sport peppers, rich au jus, and that unmistakable aroma of slow-roasted beef that makes your stomach growl instantly. But the real moment of truth comes when you look that server in the eye and say: "I'll take the Big Beef, DIPPED, LOADED with cheese sauce. And I mean loaded." Watch their face light up--they know. They understand. This is not just a sandwich; it's a ritual, and this location performs it with reverence. Then it arrives. Oh. My. Goodness. The bread is drenched--and I mean perfectly, gloriously drenched--in that deep, savory au jus, so every inch is saturated with rich, beefy flavor. It's not soggy; it's luscious. It's a sponge for joy. And then... the cheese sauce. Sweet, spicy, velvety, liquid gold--it's like someone took pepper jack, dreams, and a touch of heaven and whipped it into a creamy, molten ribbon that cascades over every millimeter of that dipped bread and tender, shreddy beef. The first bite is not just a meal--it's a religious experience. The crunch of the giardiniera, the pop of a sport pepper, the warm, juicy beef, the cheese sauce pulling in golden strands... it's an OMG moment so intense you might actually forget your own name for a second. You'll hear yourself making sounds you didn't know you could make. You might cry a little (happy tears). You might order a second one before you've even finished the first. And here's the thing--the Chandler location executes this with flawless, almost artistic precision. The line moves fast, the staff is smiling, and they don't skimp. They don't hold back on the beef, they don't drizzle the cheese sauce like it's an afterthought--they PILE IT ON with pride. You can tell this team lives for these moments. They're not just serving food; they're delivering pure, unadulterated happiness. Even the atmosphere feels electric--like everyone in the room knows they're about to have their day made. You'll see strangers nodding at each other in mutual respect over their sandwiches. You'll hear "OMG!" echoed across the dining room (seriously). And when you finish that Big Beef Dipped--cheese sauce glistening on every corner, not a drop of au jus left--you'll sit back with a food coma smile so wide it hurts, already plotting your next visit. Bottom line: If you are within 50 miles of 7200 W Ray Rd, you have no excuse. Go. Right now. Order the Big Beef DIPPED with EXTRA cheese sauce. Thank me later. And maybe bring a napkin--because that cheese sauce is so good, you're going to want to lick every last drop off your fingers. Five stars? Try FIVE OUT OF FIVE STARS PLUS A STANDING OVATION! This is the best sandwich I've ever had in my life, and I'm pretty sure it's illegal to be this good.

    I love Portillos! This is a new location and closer to my house, which I am excited about!…read more The first thing I noticed was how much smaller this location is compared to the Tempe location. Plus it didn't have that nostalgia vibe Tempe's location has. But, I was there for the food. I ordered my norm, which is a Chicago style hot dog along with some cheese fries. When my order was called, I picked it up and sat at a window side table. I tried French fry first and it was Luke warm and limp. I had to take it back and asked for crispier fries. They automatically upgraded my fries to large. The fries were just a little crispier and a little warmer, not hot. Weird! But the fries were tasty! Now my hot dog. It wasn't much warmer than my first batch of fries. Plus it didn't taste as good as the Tempe location. It was still good, but I think if the hot dog was hot it would have been better. My wife suggested maybe it's because their grill is new and isn't seasoned yet! Hmmmm! Maybe! But it was still good. I paid another visit and ordered another Chicago dog and a Fish sandwich. The hot dog was the same as my last visit. But the fish sandwich was a different story. It was actually a very good fish sandwich. I rank it higher than the other fast food restaurants; such as, McDonalds, Arby's, Burger King, and Culver's! I do want to try their charbroiled burgers! Although I had the Italian beef at their other locations; I haven't tried it here. So I'll have to give it a try also!

This Whataburger location is a few minutes away from the casino on the way back to Phoenix. Ambiance (N/A): I used the drive through to place my order. Service (4/5): While service wasn't a big part of the experience, the lady taking my order was friendly. She also asked if I wanted regular or spicy ketchup. My food was ready within a reasonable period of time. All in all, what you hope for when you're ordering fast food. Drinks (4.5/5): I spent four years in grad school in North Carolina so I'm a big fan of sweet tea. Whataburger has freshly brewed sweet tea. And even their medium size is a Texas-sized cup. That makes their beverage options a winner in my book. Food (4/5): I'm from Texas and Texans are big on Whataburger. It's nice that they have several locations in Phoenix. It reminds me of home. Some of my favorite items on the menu include the honey butter chicken biscuit (on the breakfast menu), the honey BBQ chicken strip sandwich, the chicken tenders basket with gravy, and really any of their burgers (pretty solid for fast food). This time around, I went with the avocado burger which is served on Texas toast. It's not everyday you find avocado on the menu at a fast food joint. The burger was above average (I came in with the proper expectations). What I really enjoyed is the fries which were fresh (rather than sitting under a heat lamp like you typically get at a fast food restaurant). With their homemade ketchup, it made for the perfect side. Whataburger by no means has the best burgers in town. Not even close. But if we're talking fast food joints overall, they're top five in my book (I may be a little biased ;)).

    Every 4 or 5 years I have tried this location again, and every time I say I will not be back. Their…read morebeef tastes more like filler than ground beef, and my green chili burger only had green chili on less than half of the burger.
