    Poor service when food made wrong. Should make as ordered and redo correctly when you make wrong without trying to charge customer 2nd time for sandwich not made correctly twice

    It's a cute spot but not worth waiting 33 minutes for a sandwich to be made when you're the only person in the shop

    Good subs and service. Worth the wait. If you like very chewy brownies, they have them.

    Got the tuna and cheese sub and it was the best. Great service. The steak and cheese was better than I've had in a while.

    Excellent subs and brownies! I had the veggie sub toasted. It was fabulous- crunchy toasted bread and creamy cheese with crisp veggies!

    HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BUSINESS! PLEASE SUPPORT!…read more I have lived in California, New York, Washington, Kuwait, Iraq, and now Virginia and this eatery is where I have found the best food! The service was amazing and the people were so kind even when I ordered way too many items for 2 adults and a child. You can't go wrong with anything here but I highly recommend the chicken noodle soup, the club, and the cold plate; the pasta salad was to die for and SO fresh! Had to end up taking food home because we couldn't finish everything and we definitely weren't letting it go to waste! Overall, this place makes you feel like you're apart of their family. You can tell they use high quality ingredients and really care about the people they serve and the food they put out. I can't wait to come back to try different sandwiches!

    We stopped by The Downtown Eatery today, located on High Street in the heart of downtown…read morePortsmouth. This is a fantastic place to enjoy a great sandwich for Lunch. Wendy was doing double duty handing both the counter, as well as making the sandwiches. I ordered a Corned Beef and Pastrami Sandwich with a side of Potato Salad. My Wife had a Turkey Sandwich with a side of Macaroni Salad. Both were excellent. They are generous with the meat on their sandwiches here, and we probably could have split one for both of us along with the sides that we ordered, but what the hell, you live only once! Chris, the owner popped in, just as Wendy finished making our sandwiches, and chatted with us for a while. He and Wendy both made us feel right at home! If there one small critique, I would encourage them to get a liquor license. Otherwise, everything was great! I highly recommend this wonderful eatery in Portsmouth!

    Before I begin let me start off by saying that this review is solely based on my personal…read moreexperiences and my personal experiences alone, now that my disclaimer is mentioned let us begin!. I been here to this location last week but unfortunately I forgot to check in, but I made sure that was the first thing I did this time. As soon I walked in I was greeted immediately by the staff on duty,meanwhile I was checking in so I didn't forget on this trip!. This was the first time I walked in any type of business and I was the only customer in there, my last visit was kind of chaotic because the store was jam packed with customers. Lucky I knew exactly what I wanted so I was quick on the draw when they asked what they could get started for me. It felt like I was the very first customer when they first opened up for the day because all the customer service was given to me, probably because I was the only one in there at the time, but nevertheless I enjoyed the brief moment of customer care!. I ordered a giant # 16 which consists of grilled onions and peppers and white american cheese!. I asked if they could put extra onions on my #16 giant sub. No grilled peppers on my sub but I would like to have them on the side. They obliged me and started to make my sub. As soon as the sub making began I was given a slip yo take to the register so the cashier could ring up my order correctly. After a short while they said could they make another sub because one of the employees made a mistake and put grilled peppers on my sub. I said no big deal we all make mistakes from time to time but all you have to do is make it right with the customer and they made it right. I started to leave off a star because of it but I said to myself. " why would I do that because they made a slight error between them when preparing my sub "?... so five stars the the employees at Jersey Mike's subs!!!.. they also was kind enough to give me two tickets for a free chips and drink when ordering a sub, so again kudos to them for making the right sub wrong but in the same breath they made it right times 2!!!.. I will also add the fact that I was the only customer in the store gave off a very relaxed vibe which you hardly ever experience when there are other customers in the store! I will definitely be back here again because I really enjoyed the experience they gave me. Outstanding customer service, hands down!!!.. You know since leaving Brooklyn NY it has been hard to find a good sandwich and I will say this place has the next best thing! Here in the south they call them subs, when I first moved down here I was like 'what is a sub'? Because in Brooklyn it was called a "Hero"!!!.. so let's say Jersey Mike's has the best hero in the south!!!..

    I love the #9 my favorite sandwich soooooo GOOOOD next time I might get extra cheese next timeread more

    Cozy little spot with limited parking & seating, we went there for breakfast on yesterday, very…read morefirst time for both of us, so wasn't really sure what to expect... it was very busy and crowded, which is understandable on a Saturday morning, of course we had to wait to be seated, which was about 35 minutes, the waitress was very nice and attentive, however, the food wasn't hot when brought to us, the cheese never melted in the grits, just kinda sat on top and I couldn't finish my eggs due to lack of temperature. I don't see myself returning.

However, since the reopening they went so downhill I can't even believe that it's the same place. We arrived and they were busy, we grabbed a table and the staff came over we got coffee. Then we ordered, while waiting we had to get there attention to get more coffee which in a busy place is no big deal. When the food came over the waitress said can I get you anything else? I said how about some utensils to eat with? She left and never came back! Thank God we got spoons for the coffee or we would have had to eat with our hands!!!! Extremely disappointed, the staff was walking around but no utensils came? Then I got up to pay and the prices must have gone up without them putting it on the menu? If you decide to go, i wish you luck! As for me if I plan on spending over $30 for breakfast I will be doing it someplace else. I can't believe in the times we live in where the prices are so out of hand when you decide to spend the extra money to go out, it should be worth it!
