    "The Veggie" with no flavor and two smudges of avocado "spread".
    Sherry G.

    I ordered the veggie submarine. I was greatly disappointed with this "un"glorified cheese sandwich. It was basically a bunch of mild provolone, a few tomato slices, shredded lettuce and two small smudges of avocado 'spread'. There was so little of the avocado spread I thought they had forgotten to put it on the sub so I took it to the counter and was informed that the spread was between the cheese layers. I took two bites of this sandwich and threw the rest away. I decided there was no point in filling my stomach with unsatisfying food. My boyfriend ordered the Hunter's Club sandwich, which he assumed would come on the sandwich bread since it was on the sandwich menu. It came on a sub roll. There is a choice between the two breads listed on the menu but he thought the default bread on the sandwich menu would be sandwich bread. The guy who took our order never asked which he preferred and apparently the default bread is a sub roll, even when you order a sandwich. I did notice that not one person working there ever cracked a smile or otherwise gave the impression that they were customer friendly. I think having a good attitude when preparing food results in better food. Case in point, I have been to the Tyson's Jimmy John's many times and always enjoyed the veggie sub there. The staff members at the Tyson's location are always cheerful, friendly and energetic. The staff members in the Ballston location are the complete opposite; dour, aloof and apathetic. I gave them one star just for existing and another star for the crushed ice their soda machine has (although all Jimmy John's have the same ice). Do yourself a favor and spend your money elsewhere.

    Service is good and fast at this location. The sandwiches are good. The dining room is the best sandwich shop dining area I have ever seen.

    The food was okay, they double charged my card and I was a little annoyed. It's fine otherwise though.

Anyone who remembers this place from years ago remembers taking a number, waiting in line, and getting one of the best made-to-order subs in the region? The sandwiches were worth the wait. Maybe the parents moved back to Italia and the kids got stuck with the greedy landlord. Now its just a lazy we don't care overpriced landlord run revenue generator. 6 years after COVID and the subs are still pre-made dying in over stacked pile on the counter. The rolls are often soggy by the time they reach the customer, and the fillings are so thinly layered that each bite feels more like bread sandwich with some after thought what's inside. It screams KEEP THE COST DOWN. What was once a destination deli now feels like a place that's simply too tired to care. The decline reminds me of when DC bartenders traded free pours for jiggers. Less booze, higher prices, and a straight face while handing it to you 30 minutes later with a clever name like Adam's Apple. Same business model here. Less meat, more bread, and somehow we're all expected to clap. The saddest part is that it's still busy, largely because there are fewer and fewer alternatives. The independent mom-and-pop shops that gave this area character have been pushed out, and we're left with a shell of what this place used to be. At this point, I've had fresher and better-constructed subs from Harris Teeter. That's not meant as a compliment. When customers start comparing a legendary deli to a grocery store sandwich counter--and the grocery store holds its own--it's probably time for some serious soul-searching. Nostalgia can only carry a business so far. Unfortunately, the sandwich I had was living almost entirely on memories.

It only took a quick 10 minutes to receive our entire order, which was 3 burgers, a crispy fried chicken sandwich, loaded fries, and 2 milkshakes! I was very happy with how efficient the service was and the most important part, how delicious every bite was! The smashburgers are made with 100% halal beef and they come out HOT with perfectly crispy edges on the patties and a juicy center. We ordered 3 burgers and each of them stood out in their own way. You can get a single, double, or triple patty burger and add whatever toppings to it too. The jalapeño burger was the star of the show, it had a such a nice and spicy kick to it. I wasn't expecting much but this burger had HEAT! Another favorite was the Juicy Lucy. It was packed with grilled onions and the patty was stuffed with cheddar cheese. A super messy and cheesy option that was definitely worth every bite! I liked that Jon's Joint offered other options too such as loaded fries and fried chicken sandwiches. What I found unique is that for the loaded fries, you can get it with falafel and make it spicy! This time, they had run out of the falafel so I am excited to try it next time. If you're in Arlington and craving a casual burger spot, you need to go to Jon's Joint. You'll get quick service and a delicious meal!

You can tell the owner is really into Superheroes. I ordered the grilled chicken. The good thing is that it is cooked to order. Loved that. Downside, no seasoning, AT ALL. This would be fine, I understand dietary considerations with sodium. What had me perplexed was they had NO PEPPER in the entire restaurant. I've NEVER been at a restaurant that didn't have any pepper. Plenty of salt, seasoned salt and even more salt. No pepper. Burgers seem to be popular. Wasn't very crowded, but seemed popular by locals. It was a "meh" for me. I do however really like that the food is cooked to order.

I only ate half for lunch and then I ate the second half for dinner. I reheated it in the toaster oven. In addition to the vegetarian Cuban, I also got the rice and beans and the yucca fries.

Also got a cafe con leche (Miami style) for my drink. We weren't super hungry so the trio was perfect for us. Everything on it was great, with my favorite being the sliders since it was crispy and a little meaty. The empanada was a little oily but still satisfying, and the croquettes had great crunchy texture. Yuca was okay. I should've gotten a sweeter coffee drink cause I have a sweet-tooth but it was still solid. The inside vibe is pretty chill. You just grab seating yourself and can order on your phone through the QR code that's associated with the table. You can also order at the front. There is parking around the area too (paid and unpaid (if you're lucky)). Glad I came here and checked it out. Definitely a solid chain for a quick bite and refreshing drink.
