I love subs, this place does it right…read more I am fine with all levels of subs but when I want a quality sub I come here. Solid menu variety, but the meat is the crown jewel here and the oil/red wine vinegar sauce they use makes the meat shine instead of overpowering it like other sub chain sauces. The sub feels fresh, from the bread to the cheese, and they don't skimp on the sauce. Great Heartland location close to lots of retail and other food shops. Ample parking and easy to spot. There's a good handful of tables inside for individual or pair seating, and service is pretty quick. I pre-ordered on a busy day and only needed to wait 10 to 15 minutes on a weekend evening. They do minor promos through their own loyalty program , but I find they offer better discounts on Uber/skip/etc.

~solid 3.5 stars~…read more Can down on an excursion with the work folks in the hunt to find new joints. We wanted to try some Hoagies! The place is quite small but we called in and the owner was nice enough to keep the big table for us. We all barged in and and he started making the food in front of us. I ordered the Eggplant Parmesan Hoagie with their large fries. I would say I did enjoy the sandwich and it was filled up quite nicely. The fries were crispy and fresh out of the fryer. I also got to try their cheese stick which were okay, it was just plain cheese breaded with no flavour. Overall, decent adventure.

September 4/2025: Dinner with Bruce/Cathy/Al & Dawn…read more This is a brand new remodeled restaurant with many start up pains but still a solid 4* to be sure. The service was a bit slow & disorganized but that's to be expected given the stage of the start up. Our server(s) were very nice & did a great job of looking after the table & were very attentive. The beer I had (Moretti-$8.50) wasn't as cold as it should have been, so the server replaced it. As for food...I ordered the Mesquite BBQ Chicken Pizza ($18.99) which was on special at $3.00 off for Thursday. The pizza was delicious. Perfectly done but it lacked enough BBQ sauce. It was good on the toppings & I asked for it to be well done which it was. The owner was very kind & was clearly working on making our dining experience as good as it could have been. As a new Spot they offered espresso & churros as a no charge promo. This was a casual but good dining experience. Great menu selection so that means if definitely go back. It's a solid 4-Star.

YOU HAVE TO BE LOCO TO EAT HERE. This place is a disaster…read more It's mother's Day/ 2026. They have one server who doubles up as the greeter. The entire restaurant, except one table, was empty. We waited until she came by to the main door, to escort us to a table. Ordered a Margherita - she comes back to say they don't have the ingredients for it. So I switched to a Coke. Comes absolutely flat. Zero fizz. See picture. It's been 20 minutes. Feels like a total disaster so far. Waiting for the food. Hopefully the kitchen is staffed and we won't have to wait hours for food. Hope floats. 35 mins from the time we placed the order for food. Nothing yet. Just checked all the 5 star reviews by the professional 'local guide' reviewers and realized everything is for sale these days. We called her and she said our order is not even in yet. And now we are leaving. She did not charge us for the flat coke, by saying "I'll pay for it". Just when I told my wife, that this experience wasn't really the servers fault, she tries guilt shaming us instead of a genuine apology. Every thing that can be a disaster in a restaurant, was a disaster here. Dont make the mistake of going here. Especially if you're celebrating or if it's a significant day for you. Never mind the paid for, "5 star" reviews by the "local guides"

Hello foodies today I bring you a mixed bag of reviews from this small italian and portuguese…read morerestaurant. I would say its primarily takeout but they have one or two tables inside. They are located in a small plaza on the north side of Qieen st behind a gas station with plenty of parking . They serve your typical fair with pizza. Pasta , hot sandwiches, and Portuguese grilled chicken ... Today I ordered three sandwiches, the veal sandwich with hot peppers, the italian sausage sandwich with grilled peppers and onions and the Porruguese Chorizo sausage sandwich plain. 3./5 rating on average for all three sandwiches even though they were not all equal in quality and taste. Let's start with the veal as I feel this was the worst of the three. For a guy who has tried practically every veal sandwich in the GTA I think I know what makes a good veal plus I am half italian. Raring 3/5 a very large sandwich great portion size with I think two layers of thin cut veal could of used another layer not typical . However very hard not tender at all most likley overly deep fried, correct preparation is a shallow fry so it dosnt get hard , i found it very hard to bite through the sandwich because how tough the meet was. The second let down was this was definitely not home made tomato sauce very very acidic canned sauce . If you never had another veal sandwich it's probably not bad but in comparison to much better in the GTA it falls really short Italian sausage 2.5/5 is my rating again great portion size big sandwich several sausages cut in half in sandwich with some really tasty grilled peppers and onions , but again this sausage was not fresh very hard overcooked and probably sat in fridge then reheated days later making it very hard and difficult to bight through not one bit of tenderness...and same issue with the canned sauce extremely acidic. Portuguese Chorizo sausage sandwich was the best one. .3.8/5 .Another generous large portion size .but on a more positive note .the sausage was better cooked not so dry and hard very very flavorful and maybe because it was not drenched in that acidic tomato sauce it was a good sandwich at least much better then the previous two The olives were just fabulous tasty spicey and perfect highly recomend thos with your meal 5/5 Service 5/5 was very friendly fast my food was ready in about 7 minutes from the time I ordered. Very average sandwiches but not the worst veal and sausage sandwiches i have had

4 to a 4.5 Can I…read morejust first start by saying I really underestimated a medium, I was so full, I almost threw up eating the last bite. Yes, that's TMI but that's how full I was lol. I'm also probably just a weakling and shouldn't have forced myself to eat all that. Anyways, I have only heard good things about firehouse subs forever. Surprisingly, my bf has tried it before I have and he too raves about them. I finally had a chance to try a few bites from my friends' subs as they had ordered some through skip the dishes. I was blown away. I tried a few bites of the Italian and the Steak and Cheese and it was sooooo good. Also, for a bootleg Philly cheesesteak, which I know they do not claim to be, it was pretty good!! So a week later I was super craving my own and could not stop thinking about it. Thankfully for me, there's one an 8 minute drive away. Since I had such a good experience with the Italian that's what I decided to order. A medium. Also I had no idea you could add certain extra toppings at no fee, until my gf started ordering them lol next time. Anyways, somehow my friend's sub last week tasted so much better and it was delivery! Lol. Maybe it's because I got whole wheat. I need to make note to stick to white bread next time. The sub was still super tasty, packed with meat and fresh ingredients. I love their buns. They're the perfect softness. I hate buns that are hard and hurt my gums. Ya I'm sounding hella old. I'm super impressed with these subs and it's literally just a sub but I find myself craving them all the time! I can't wait to try all the flavours!

New restaurants often receive lots of hype, but it's not too often a restaurant chain does…read more However, word of Firehouse Subs has been making quite a bit of noise since they've entered the GTA market in the last year or so. Hype is great to generate buzz, but it can also lead to unrealistic expectations. I'm happy to report that Firehouse has completely met and even surpassed my high expectations. I'd heard great things about their meatball sub, so I went with that on my first visit. I had a couple years as a teenager loving meatball subs at Subway, but have since largely moved on due the sub-par meat quality. The meatball sub here is EXACTLY what you would look for in a proper meatball sub. The meat quality is top notch, and that along with the sauce really brings out a great homemade feel. And of course with a sandwich, you can't overlook the importance of the bun and Firehouse has knocked it out of the park in that regard. It should be noted that all subs are toasted here. They also ensure it's toasted thoroughly so it will take a few minutes for your sub to be finished. Beyond that, they only have a handful of toppings to choose from, and ones that are conducive for a toasted sub - so no lettuce, tomato and others. There are still a few others however, such as bell peppers, jalapenos and more. I wanted to wait for another visit before I gave my review since a meatball sub could be a bit easier for a toasted sub place to pull off. I came in today and ordered the beef brisket sandwich. They describe it as smoked for 16 hours, though obviously it wouldn't be the same as a brisket from a BBQ joint. The brisket is deli-style meat, but their fridge is on full display and you can see that it arrives whole, which means they would slice it fresh. Beyond that, once I received my sandwich and began to eat, it's clear that it's about the highest quality deli meat available. It was apparent from the look and the taste, and even the smoked quality was evident. I brought a co-worker on this visit and she absolutely loved her steak and cheese sandwich. It's all about the quality of the ingredients here which makes the sandwiches great. They are also well-staffed here to manage many customers and they're super-friendly. I'm not sure how much I buy into the firehouse theme or even the fundraising/philanthropy aspect of the business - but when the food is this good it doesn't even matter.
