    closed early
    B E.

    Posted closing time is never honored, they always close early without notice. It seems like other reviews have gone inside by 8:00 pm just to be told they are no longer accepting orders smh.

    The Jimmy John's on Central Avenue in Compton keeps a clean restaurant with friendly customer service. My favorite is the tuna. It's good, fresh and not too much mayo. They just recently discontinued their crispy jalapeños which makes me sad, they were sooo good in the sandwich. It's cool, they sell them in the grocery store. Prices are reasonable and you get a free upgrade to a combo after 2pm. You can't beat that deal!

    One bite into old stale bread before returning the sandwich
    Tae G.

    I've given this location enough chances. Today I had all the time in the world to double back and return ANOTHER sandwich made with some of the crispiest, crunchiest, stalest bread ever! The staleness was evident to the touch, even when the manager pressed it. This tells me that employees how to be fully aware they Re using old, stale bread or management is pushing for them to do so. Coincidentally upon my return, the manager said fresh bread had just come out of the oven. He remade my sandwich and noted my JJ account to use fresh bread ONLY for any future orders. While appreciate the manager remaking my sandwich and giving me a free bag of chips, I will bypass this location and drive elsewhere if needed. That's great, but I'm done with this location.

    So small

    How disappointed I am with my sandwich. I paid close to $8 dollars and it was lacking meat and vegetables At least if you are not going to give me more meat and cheese you can give me some lettuce, tomatoes and cucumber. I normally would not give a negative review, however, this sandwich was ridiculous.

    Avocado spread and cucumber slices
    Regina L.

    This was my first time experiencing food at Jimmy John's and it was my last period regardless of city. Overall the experience left a bad taste in my mouth so to speak. I ordered the avocado, cucumber and cheese. I paid total $18 for with chips and a small fountain power aid. When I asked what are the options for cheese, I was informed they only have provolone. (Should of left then, this is a PORK byproduct and I don't eat pork) I had the cheese removed and had got double avocado (they only have avocado spread) I saw a photo advertisement soon after with a sandwich that had fresh mozzarella, so I asked the sandwich maker if I could purchase to add to my sandwich, I was told "that cheese is only sold for that advertised sandwich only" I had never heard of such a thing but ok Once my Togo order was completed, my number was called out and my square sandwich was placed on the counter top.?.? I asked the lady, can I have a bag? "Just reach over the counter and grab one" Is this how customer service is supposed to be handled? (In my head) I reached over and grabbed a bag and placed my sandwich, got a cup, then choose my bag of chips at the counter. I will gladly frequent Togos, and Jersey Mikes as they never disappoint.

    #14 with potato salad
    Florence M.

    This has got to be one of my favorite sandwich shops! They have tons delicious options to choose from, my go to is the number 14 with everything and I add peppers,pickles , and cucumbers with a side of potato salad if it's available. I usually drop by for dinner and they have ran out for the day, they will sub for the pasta salad which is good too but not as good in my opinion. The staff is always friendly and my order is always ready when I arrive.For the quality you get I'd say the price is good and definitely sign up for the email club as they send out really good coupons. The parking sometimes depending on the time of day could be a little tricky. It shares a parking lot with several other businesses such as In N Out, Dunkin' Donuts, Wabba Grill and a few others.

    Where you order
    Robyn B.

    I haven't been in an establishment with such bad service in a long time. I was actually looking for Jersey Mikes and ended up here because I have been to this particular store before and had no problem. I walked in and the young lady at the register didn't great us nor did she give us a smile. Her attitude was as if we were disturbing her day. She didn't ask what size sandwiches we wanted. When asked what a veggie sandwich came with she forced herself to tell me. Still no smile no customer service. The young lady made the sandwiches and called our number and sat the wrapped sandwiches on the counter. She did ask when we ordered was it for here or to go. We clearly said to go. When I asked about a bag she pointed and said I could grab one right there. On the other side of the counter sat bags and napkins that I had to help myself to. Customer service gets a zero for me. I didn't even want to eat my sandwiches after I had to bag them myself. I don't suggest anyone go to the store.

    Menu
    Rihana A.

    I went when they were giving away free sandwiches. I have only had Jimmy John's at a corporate event so they were pre-made. I was not a fan. I decided to try well they were free what better way to see if you like a $9 Sandwich. My first impression looking at the menu is WOW it is expensive. There was a short line outside. The staff took orders then let you go inside to hand the staff your order form. Very quick process short wait for the sandwich and it was not crowded inside. I ordered the veggie delight hold the mayo and cheese. I added the spicy JJ mustard and some peppers. My sandwich was delicious. The bread was soft. The ingredients were sparse I had move items around to find the tomatoes. No picture of the open sandwich because you can only see lettuce. Oh, they do charge $1 to add cheese to a sandwich. So my picky son told the waiter what he wanted on his sandwich as he didn't see it exactly on the menu. The waiter picked one of the sandwiches and did an up charge for the cheese. After further exploring the menu I changed it to a different sandwich and asked to hold some ingredients...no up charge and there was cheese. After eating the sandwich I hate to say if I was craving a sandwich I would go there and spend the money because it was worth it! The 3rd Sandwich was a Tuna and my son said it was alright.

    They wrapped a piece of hair into my sandwich

Yesterday was the first time I've ever been inside the restaurant. Since it was a spur of the moment visit, I went inside to place an order. I was surprised to find the place virtually empty, since it was a bit after 3 p.m. on. Thursday afternoon. It was bright and clean inside, and the A/C was working perfectly. (I was feeling quite warm that day.) I was helped right away. I ordered four different sandwiches. The young fellow who took my order was very friendly and patient with me. It was my first time ordering; he was totally upbeat and helpful! Then another employee came out to help with the order, as a couple additional customers had entered the restaurant. He was also very friendly and upbeat! (I'm sorry - I should've gotten their names. Next time I'll remember!) Both guys were incredibly good at their jobs! They were able to make all of the subs quickly and correctly. It was pretty impressive, actually! They made it look so easy... and it definitely isn't that easy! I'd completely forgotten that we are members of their points program and they reminded me. All I had to do was enter my phone number in the keypad. I had enough points to get the mini sub for free! The whole thing took way less time than I expected. Everything was perfect. It could not have been a better experience. Thanks, guys! I'll be back!

The garlic noodles were flavorful, and the bulgogi short rib steak was tender, juicy, and cooked perfectly. The dish comes with two sauces, and they really elevate the meal. The cilantro-lime green sauce has a nice kick to it, but it pairs incredibly well with both the garlic noodles and the steak.

The service was friendly, attentive, and welcoming, making my first visit even more enjoyable. The restaurant itself has a clean, cozy ambiance that makes you want to sit back and enjoy your meal.

While the menu is a bit of a splurge, the freshness and taste make it a place I'd happily come back to when I'm craving a flavorful Vietnamese-inspired meal. I'm already looking forward to trying more items on the menu!
