Food came out very quickly and very hot. The dishes can be customized and the breakfast burritos come with a fresh fruit and berry cup. Both the breakfast sandwich and the burrito were very filling and large. The bagel was a little dry but they have a condiments table where butter, syrup, jelly, and peanut butter are in individual single serve containers so you can make your sandwich as you like (I added butter to my bagel sandwich). Has street parking but shares it with other nearby shops. For the winter season there is an outdoor, covered patio pop-up.

Worth the Wait at Jersey Mike's…read more Stopped by the Jersey Mike's on SW Vintage Parkway in Ankeny today for a quick dinner pickup. We placed our order through the app (super convenient) for a #6 Roast Beef and Provolone and a #55 Big Kahuna Chicken Cheese Steak. ## The Experience The place was hopping during the dinner rush when we arrived, which explained why our wait was a bit longer than expected. That said, I was impressed watching the staff hustle behind the counter - everyone was working efficiently and still managing to be friendly to each customer. No small feat during a lunch rush! ## The Food Our sandwiches were absolutely worth the short wait. The #6 Roast Beef and Provolone ($10.95) was made perfectly - tender roast beef with that delicious combo of provolone, red wine vinegar, and fresh veggies on their rosemary parmesan bread. The #55 Big Kahuna Chicken Cheese Steak ($10.25) was equally impressive - juicy philly chicken with white American cheese, just the right amount of jalapeño heat, and those perfectly grilled onions. I appreciated that they followed our "extra love" special instruction too! ## The Value At just over $21 before tax for two substantial sandwiches, the value is solid. These aren't your average thin cold cuts - Jersey Mike's doesn't skimp on quality or quantity. ## Overall While it wasn't the fastest pickup experience, the staff's positive attitude and the excellent sandwich quality more than made up for the slight wait. The Ankeny location seems well-managed even during the dinner rush, and I'll definitely be back (though maybe avoiding peak dinner hours if I'm in a hurry). Next time I'll remember to take pictures before devouring everything!

I enjoy their produce section, along with their healthy choices options. I also like the overall look and layout if the store, uncluttered and vibrant.

We appreciated it.

There aren't many fast food or to go food places that have soup. This place does. My favorite is the chicken wild rice, but on this day, they didn't have any left, so chicken dumplings it was for me! I got the 12 oz size. The kids are so well fitting, that I was able to put this in a bag to take to car and no leaks! Grab the croutons for extra flavors. 5star for a bowl of soup? You bet! This was something I was craving and readily accessible and available on this day. Lots of chicken, dumplings. Great amounts of herbs. In fact, I'm craving it again as I write this. Are my tastes simple? Maybe. But that soup was perfect for them. I do go to many fast food places, but can find the treasures in each one. Lot parking here. Friendly staff. Great prices in most things-the coupon from the app got me this 12oz soup for $0.99 plus tax. CyHawkApproved.

I went thru the Jimmy John's drive thru at the corner of Ankeny Blvd and SW 2nd street between…read more11:30am and noon. I placed my order and wasn't told the final price until I reached the window. The price was several dollars more than the advertised price plus tax on the drive thru board. I was told at the window they had price hikes, but did not have the material to make the changes to their menu. I heard that both from the worker and on site manager. I believe you should honor your price you advertise until you make official changes to your menu. Both the worker and on site manager would not match the price on their menu. However, I was offered a free cookie. I declined and left with no food. I contacted corporate customer service about this location charging more than the price they advertise. They person I spoke with is getting the issue escalated to a higher level for investigation. I'm making this post to make those who eat at this location to be mindful of what you are getting charged based upon what they advertise. I hope they get their menu pricing fixed fast.

Unauthorized Tip Charged, plus poor food quality…read more. Very disappointing experience. The food quality was poor--the chicken looked old and tasted off.

Not exactly what I'd call 'freaky fast', and seemed like a bit long with no line and 6 people working. Food was ok, but loaded with a massive amount of shredded lettuce that kind of overtakes the sandwich. I don't eat at JJ often, so wasn't aware you can get onions, peppers, etc. if you let them know. That would have helped, because the meat with a couple of tomato slices, mayo, and a heaping of lettuce lacks a bit of flavor for my taste. Bread was good (we all got wheat).
