It's been a long time since I've visited a Jimmy John's. This experience was unparalleled to past experiences. I ordered a Little John #3. All the customizations were completed to perfection. The tuna is remarkably better from what I remembered. My biggest critique is consistency. My first order was perfect. I came back a few days later and the bread was dry and I was shorted -protein. The manager Nino addressed the concern by providing me a sandwich on my next visit which was executed to perfection. If the consistency improves I will bump up to 5 stars. It also appears they are going through some staffing changes. This is why I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt for the mishap. read more

Jimmy John's - Store Front - Sandwiches Near Me - Houston, Texas

Incompetent on delivery dispatch. Manager is a compulsive liar. Owner doesn't care. Adding hot sandwiches was a mistake.

Delivery is usually pretty quick but sometimes it takes 30 minutes when my office is 0.5 miles away. Pretty good at getting the order correct but please don't ever disrespect my sandwich again when I ask for EZ on an ingredient... asked to go easy on the pickles and a regular amount of cucumbers.. I can't believe y'all seriously cut ONE PICKLE IN HALF and put that halved sliced pickle on a sandwich and called it a day... the amount of cucumbers was equally as sad. read more

Jimmy John's - A sad, dry Vito sub - Sandwiches Near Me - Houston, Texas

=COVID-19 REVIEW= Ordered Little John #4 online for 'immediate' pick up with a little customization on the sub (extra tomatoes, extra pickles, etc). It took me probably around 20 minutes between the time I placed the order to the time I arrived at the restaurant but my sub was ready to go. The lone cashier working behind the counter was helping another customer when I walked in, but the manager immediately came to help me get my pick up order. Both the cashier and the manager were wearing a face mask so kudos on following the Covid protocol. Once I got home, I checked my order and it was done right. Except that it was missing the napkins - not a big deal. read more

I've ordered several times without an major issues. Usually they miss something on the sandwich items, but not enough for recourse. Today, the order took 50 mins for delivery and the sandwich was almost completely wrong except for the meat. My porch was dry and it was not raining when the order was dropped. The driver did not knock or ring the bell, but I saw and immediately retrieved. I thought this was almost a joke. The bag and receipt were dripping with water to the point where it looked like the whole thing was dropped in a bucket. Won't be ordering again anytime soon. read more

Jimmy John's - Bag and receipt that was dripping with water - Sandwiches Near Me - Houston, Texas

Food was good. Consistent with other locations I've been to. But like other reviewers, I felt the customer service is lacking. I'm not expecting exaggerated service like Chick-fil-A, but seems like everyone there has a fml attitude. You can fake it with very little effort. Hate your job? Go to Popeyes or McDonald's, where that sh*t attitude is expected haha. And this wasn't a one off. I've been to this location about 3 times, spread out over 4 years. Every. Time. Not that often, right? I wonder why. Poor ownership and management. read more

The workers were friendly but mask-less. I kinda like the workers to wear masks for their and my protection. Kinda grossed out the tuna was in a sliding drawer close to the floor and the worker had to lean over to scoop it. Jersey Mikes forgot my pickles again. read more

Have you ever frequented a business not knowing that next door down or two there was a diamond in the rough? Well the scenario here is I must have approximately 30 plus check ins two businesses down from here and did not know here even existed until I saw some flyers at building where I work. Jimmy John, Jimmy Dean, Paula Dean or whatever name is placed on a business or product somehow fails to attract me unless I have come into contact with the actual food. There were some bbq potato chips that got me started this way. Looking for a quick meal between the day job I remembered about the flyer and yelp/google map helped me find here. Wait, I am familiar with this area, I come here almost everyday, what? It has always been two doors down and I never noticed it? Well heck let me get another business try under my belt. After skimming through a few reviews and noticing more than a dozen 4+ stars I set myself up and went in. Friendly counter help, clean floors, smell bouquet of bread and semi loud music. Someone during the shift must have found a song they liked and cranked it up a few deci's oh well. I ordered some Night Italian Sandwich or whatever it was called with the bbq chips that I tried before. It did not knock me off my feet but I could genuinely tell you that it's a tad above Subway, Quizmo's etc. The bread was not the soft type but I guess I could describe as a pull apart texture, which is good. The ingredients did not overwhelm each other and nothing on the salty side. I forgot to mention about the speed of your order, I think this is one major selling point of Mr. John's ventures. As soon as I paid I could almost see my sandwich 3/4 way on a 3 man, er there was a cute little short hispaniclady in the middle, line. Wow, like my quick tip, this place puts McDonald's and any fast food time's to shame. The sandwiches here are cheap as in price, $5.50 will get you filled while there are smaller $4.50 options. A $5.50 sandwich with chips will run you almost in the $8 range. Seating, there seems to be seating for about 25 to 30 people so if your trying to get here during a lunch rush then you might want to bring you some extra napkins if you get here after noon because you most likely are going to be dining in your vehicle. Inside was clean, the restrooms were clean but don't expect to get in fast if somebody else is already there because it's only a one man deal, wait patiently outside or dig into your pocket or purse for your purrell. There is music here for your listening enjoyment while your eating but they had that baby cranked up. I walked to the counter and nicely requested it to be turned down a hair which they happily did, very accommodating but if you were hear at this particular visit at 4:00 pm on a weekday you would have understood. No flat screen to watch here, boo! In all, I would give this establishment it's fifth star had it had an oven to toast their sandwiches but let's just say here hidden is the fifth star, I really like here better than Subway but not as much as Quizmos (toasted sandwiches and that addicting batch 427 hot sauce). There are fountain drinks here. ============================================ Tips to new yelpers: If you can get on a computer and access yelp.com, you will notice a "talk" and an "events" close to the top.

It saddens me that this is the umpteenth time that "Freaky Fast" is NOT "Freaky Fast". I don't work far from this San Felipe location, however, they certainly take their sweet time in delivering 3-4 sandwiches with sides. I order well before noon, do the online thing and make it as easy of an order as possible. It took them 56 minutes to deliver, this time. Anytime you call to speak to the manager, he is very gruff and quite frankly, he doesn't care. After this last time, I will send our lunch business else where. Jimmy John's Freaky Fast motto needs to be updated as Freaky Slower than a Turtle. read more

Got their tuna club sandwich and it was made just the way I like it with extra cheese. It was fast and good. Idk why this place doesn't have 5 starts. Good customer service! read more

Good and fast sub sandwiches! I'm a big fan of the Italian, and Jimmy Johns does it quite well. I've been coming here for years and have found the place pretty consistent. Pro tip: Ask for your sub thin cut if you want to trim down on the carbs. My one annoyance with the place is that when you get your sandwich they are a little cheap on the napkins and give you a dinky small cup for water. read more

I like to come to this Jimmy John's location at lunch time during the work week. They have fast and consistent service if you're looking for a quick meal. I like to order the #4 Turkey Tom, which is turkey breast, lettuce, tomato, and mayonnaise on an 8-inch sub sandwich. You can also add extra toppings like provolone cheese, and you have an option to get it on wheat (your sandwich will be in sliced bread form, not a sub in this case). For under $10, you can upgrade this to a full meal which includes a drink and a bag of chips. What to order: -#4 Turkey Tom (turkey breast, lettuce, tomato, and mayonnaise), ask for provolone cheese, and put it on wheat bread Pros: -Fast service -Value Cons: -None read more

They messed up a simple BLT that too twenty minutes to receive. So disappointing. Then, George offered me chips to "make it better". I want the original order. read more

Terrible service from the manager, service was very dismissive didn't offer me chips or a drink didn't even feel the need to tell me my sandwich was ready just left it on the counter and moved on with his day. You should never judge a book based on the cover and this is also Jimmy Johns not Gucci there was no need to discriminate against us. read more

This location is not Freaky Fast. And calling to address the problem will not help. They do not care about you or their future business with you. I suggest just going to pick it up yourself if possible. Or, better yet, just go to Jersey Mike's. read more

WoW! Just called to ordered a veggie sub that comes with Avocado spread. Because I asked for the spread to be on the side rather than spread on the sandwich it was going to cost me an extra $2.00 but free for them to take the tomatoes off. Seriously! The only reason I'm ordering a veggie is because your Quality of turkey is not what it used to be and no you are not Freaky Fast! read more

Funny enough the first thing I thought when walking into this Jimmy John's location was that it reminded me exactly of the Jimmy John's I lived on in college when a new Yelp friend, Bindi S., commented on my Yelp check in about existing on Jimmy John's in college. And that is why we are friends, we are spirit animals. This location off San Felipe, set back in the strip mall with ample parking, is much more serene than some of the other much-higher-traffic Jimmy John locations in the city. This one did not have a huge line unlike the other one on Westheimer where it takes forever-and-a-day to make it through the line; or the one downtown where most of my grey hairs come from waiting in line on days in court chiefly in 2010-2011 when I was trying to sample more in the community than eating at Treebeards all day erry day (not really since they were only open a brief window for lunch.) This JJ location had a very short, manageable line and they moved quickly. That is the point of a Jimmy Johns - their commercials are all about speed and more than any other chain, they actually live up to expectations often. This was just like the one I lived on in college because I would totes come back here all the time, their sandwiches are tasty, things move quickly, and that sandwich is in your hands at least (if not your mouth) in short order. The one in college had the sage wisdom and foresight to be located very close to my frat house - and to be open late - because nothing says happy drunk frat guy like a delicious sandwich in his hands at 2:15am. This one happened to just be next to a shitty grocery store I angrily walked out of since their pizza aisle is bad and they should feel bad about their terrible pizza aisle. There, I put the Dr. Zoidberg hex on that awful grocery store, that is more satisfying than the companion one star review I posted. The Italian Night Club is always a safe option, that vinaigrette comes in hot and heavy to let you know this is a sandwich that takes no prisoners and might stain your khaki pants if you are not sufficiently alert and vigilant with your napkin-sorcery. The Bootlegger Club, the roast beef is approximately 31 times more tasty and fresher than the roast beef you can find at other sandwichery shoppes of 'ye ill repute. And the Ultimate Porker I feel like was handcrafted with me in mind to round the ham-itude of ham with the bacon-osity of bacon to create a truly pig-licious taste in your mouth. If only we could be as sophisticated as Frank Reynolds of Paddy's Pub where we separate all ingredients and just build the sandwich in our mouth - that way you could artfully identify how much of your mouth should be bacon-fabulous in proportion to hammy-satisfying - or you could just let the Jimmy John's guy behind the counter think for himself (or herself as the case may be, whatever's inside of you) and create your masterpiece for you when all you need to do is swipe your credit and be on your merry way with your sandwiches. If you need a sandwich you could not have a better sandwich experience in this zip code. But seriously, don't come here because I do not want to have to wait in line behind you. If you do decide to come here based on the review I have written you grant me an irrevocable right of way in perpetuity to cut in front of you - no backsies on this deal. So (a) you can bask in my Yelp reviewiness that my sandwich singing praises brought you here and (b) I do not like waiting in line so you would be a bad person if you made me wait in line behind you meow that you know, and are on notice, that I do not like waiting in line. read more

"Subs so fast you'll freak." That's the very appropriate slogan at Jimmy John's. What it neglects to mention is that the sandwiches are ridiculously good as well. Tied for my FAVOURITE sandwich place in all of Houston. I don't need gimmicky toasted subs or the ability to check off what I want on a brown paper bag. I want a fresh sandwich served by friendly people. Jimmy John's delivers that in spades. As I've mentioned before, for me, it comes down to Bread, Meat/Cheese, Veggies/Sauce. Bread: The white french bread here is amazing. Soft and usually baked several times a day. The real treat is the whole grain wheat bread that has sunflower seed sprinkled liberally throughout. This is the bread that I judge all other breads against. When I sit down at any place with a sandwich, Jimmy John's wheat bread is the benchmark and thus far, I have not found anything better for the price. Sure, I've had better artisan bread at fancy restaurants charging $30 for a sandwich, but this money, you can't do ANY better. Don't think for one moment that just because this place is economical that it is just ok bread. Sandwich places/restaurants charging 2-3x Jimmy John's cant' touch the bread. Meat/Cheese: Good selection of meat. Decent selection of cheese. From the looks of the slicer (similar to Kramer's from Seinfeld), Jimmy Johns slices their cheese and bread on site. While it is not as fresh as Lenny's which slices meat and cheese per sandwich, you know it hasn't been sitting there for ages swimming in some shrink-wrapped package of goo. Veggies/Sauce: Pretty standard. They'll put a mean guac on your sandwich if you ask them to. I use it as a mayo/mustard substitute. Overall, this place rocks. It is open late and serves up fantastic sandwiches. My favourite is a Beach Club on Wheat. If you're picky about what goes on your sandwich, try some of the slims that come with just meat and cheese. Give this place a try. It hits a sweet spot both in great sandwiches and price. read more

Came here because I was looking for a cheap places to grab a quick bite before leaving home from the Galleria area. I kept hearing all those Jimmy John's commercials on the radio and I teach at a dance studio and my students went to a JJs once and really enjoyed it, so finally I wanted to see what the fuss was about. I walked inside and it was dead. One of the workers was sweeping the floor and came behind the counter to greet me. I took my time at the menu until I finally told him that I've never been here and that it was my first time. He took advantage of this and really gave me a great explanation on how the menu works etc. Still taking my time debating after he told me everything, one of the guys behind the counter saw my indecision and gave me some of the customer favorites and recommendations. I took his advice and went ahead with the Italian Night Club, I believe is what it was called, and he suggested it with the spicy peppers, but I resisted the urge and went without (next time I'm gonna have to try it with though because it was good). After paying through and grabbing my chips, the guy who made the suggestions already had my sandwich done (fast service). The only two things I wish before I sat down though was that, one, I could have been given the option for wheat bread, but I think they only serve white, not sure. And second, I wish I had the option to either toast the sandwich or microwave it. I'm more of a warm sandwich kind of person. BUT I was sold over, the sandwich was great. And of course if I'm gonna try something new out, I'm gonna eat it as is with no modifications. Nevertheless, it was a great sandwich, very meaty, and full of flavor, even with just plain mayo as the spread. I was very satisfied in the end. Definitely will go back to JJs in the future and great job for this location for giving great services and producing a great sandwich. Oh and the places was clean too, always a plus! read more

First off, I'm biased. I work in an office building down the street on weekends and am chained to my desk all 8 hours, including lunch. I order online for delivery pretty effortlessly, click place order, and the food arrives about 10 minutes later. The delivery guys are always professional and pleasant, and I get my food well wrapped and receive exactly what I ordered every time. A+ for consistency. And it tastes good. so there. read more

Out of all the sandwich joints in H-town, one of my 2 favorite places is this place. The store is kept clean, always busy with friendly employees. I usually go for the #3 tuna with added lettuce, tomato & peppers. The tuna is not laden with mayo like most places & the bread (oh the bread!) is so freakin' fresh & delicious. Yep, I love me some JJ's tuna for lunch. read more

When I am too lazy to pack my lunch in to work, this is my go to for a quick delivery if I'm chained to my desk (which is often). One compliment I can give this chain is their consistency - there's a location near my house and I swear I can't tell the difference between a sandwich from there or here. Anyway - I order online and presto change-o! Sandwich appears in short order. It's not the fanciest thing in the world, the options never change and nothing is hot, but hey - you are just trying not to go to your afternoon meetings starving and ready to Shawshank someone in the neck with a plastic fork from the breakroom and this does the trick!!! But seriously - they are good sandwiches and the prices are good too. And remember to tip the delivery dude! read more

OK, so I had never had Jimmy Johns before, but a friend and I were hungry at work and neither of us could leave, lame, so we called JJs. They WERE freakishly fast, and they were defiantly freakishly good. I had the beach club (?), it was turkey, avocado, sprouts, cucumber... it was literally the best sandwich I ever had. The bread was so good, you could taste every ingredient. Thank you Jimmy Johns! For real. read more

Would you like some sandwich with your oil? What's the deal guys, I know this is Texas but I have ZERO desire to be a vegetable oil tycoon, let's be honest we all know it's not olive oil. So why was my sandwich swimming in oil, it literally pooled on the wrapper, and dripped copiously from the sandwich, NO ONE EATS THAT MUCH OIL EVER! Had to salvage what meat and cheese I could from this oil spill they call a sandwich, beyond disgusting. And last I checked "light onions" doesn't mean put half an onion on the sandwich? Freaky fast, nope, rather slow and the sandwich was nigh inedible. Last time I EVER do business with them, a simple sandwich isn't asking too much at all especially at $10. I could have fried seafood in all the oil they liberally doused my sandwich with. read more

Great hearty fresh subs with lots of options. This location is quick. When I say quick I mean I haven't even paid and I have sandwich in hand. Great staff and is always consistent. Parking during lunch gets a bit crowded but other then that, great location and great subs. read more

This place is hit or miss. I've ordered at plenty of Jimmy Johns, and while this one is not the worst (that's probably the MLK - Austin JJ), it's surely not the best. It doesn't appear that a manager is on duty because everyone is just hanging around. Not to mention the consistency just isn't there. They have a hard time accurately taking/making orders. Sometimes they're great, other times not at all good. One time I got the tuna sandwich and it had an aweful fishy taste to it. I suppose whoever made the tuna that morning just didn't really care. Running a Jimmy John's requires diligence on the part of the employee as well as the manager; I don't think they have either. read more

I have been to this location about 10 times over our last 5 years or so. It's fast food so I really cannot rank it high. But for fast food I like this place. First of all it tends to be clean. It's very busy but I have never been in the store and it not be clean. Second they tend to be quick with the food. As far as quality I am not a giant fan of their sandwiches. The bread is just too compact. The meat and condiments are fine. The location is excellent as it's near my office. The staff is pleasant and helpful. Solid. read more

The commercials are true- delivery is FAST! I always order online and before you know it my sandwich is here, and made exactly how I specific online! I always see Jimmy John delivery cars in the parking lot so they must frequent my building and understand the fastest way to get here, find parking, etc. This is a great, fast, easy way to get lunch in a hurry in the Galleria area without ever leaving your desk! read more

I just want to say thanks to this Jimmy John's location for getting my complicated order right and they were very quick too! I ordered the #13 gourmet veggie, no cheese, no mayo, french bread TBO (take bread out), add hot peppers, extra avocado, with chips --and it was delicious! Wish they had alfalfa sprouts like they did before (and maybe some vegan condiments!), but still a great sandwich. read more

Delivery is always soooo fast! Can't beat the convenience of the app and the quick yummy sandwiches they deliver :P #5 Vito is the best lol.

NEVER ORDER FROM THEM. They forgot to put avocado and mayo in my turkey sandwich. It happens. I was so disappointed by the way they handled their mistake. The driver was unprofessional and can't speak English at all. It took him 30 mins and he finally called me to tell me he was lost and i had to guide him to my location with much difficulty. (no english) It was all messed up. When i called, i had to wait to speak to the manager for 10 minutes and i was told i would get another one right away. THEY TOOK A WHOLE HOUR! and when it arrived, i got so angry, i told him to eat it himself. NEVER ORDER FROM THEM. read more

Ordered a veggie sandwich bc of the avocado and got a sandwich with basically nothing but cheese. Sandwich was very poorly made. Avocado was non existent. Waste of $8 (total with delivery). Called to complain and only offering was to remake sandwich. I am at lunch from work so won't have time to eat again let alone wait for another delivery. Haven't had Jimmy Johns in 6 years and now I remember why! read more

well i prob would have never eaten a sammich from here but caught one of their workers walking the halls passin out free samples... so i snatched up a veggie & turkey from her..real nice young lady.. the sammiches were good i admit (plus being free always makes em taste better) and ill give it mostly to the bread.. will i go to the store..eh prob not but was good !!!! read more

45 minutes to deliver one sandwich less than a mile away. I thought this place was supposed to be fast. Just terrible service in general.

Absolutely my favorite sandwhich place for a chain restaurant. The bread is to die for. The ingrediants are top notch. I eat their at least once a week. read more

They ARE Super fast, we order from them all the time! Orders have always been accurate and yummy! Great for when you forget your lunch and remember last minute! read more

Awesome sub sandwiches. They have such great tasting bread and you can pick some day old ones from the day before for 50 cents a pop. It freezes quite well. My favorite sandwich there is the beach club, lettuce, avocado spread, turkey, cheese, and mayo. The service is quite fast as well. I wish I had one of these closer to me, I'd probably go there a few times a week for lunch. read more

the subs from this JJ is awesome!! finally found a JJ that still has it's quality, I'm happy. my favorite Turkey Tom was filled up with fresh crunchy lettus and sprouts. the bread was to the chewy side, in a yummy way, they dig out the center part of the bread so the texture of each bite was solid and not too filling. After eating a whole sub ( it's a lot but yes I can), I was full for hours but not feeling nasty. I took one star off, tho, because of the delivery service. it is indeed great to be able to order online and free charge for only two subs. but it took them more than 20 mins to get to my hotel room when we are only 0.5 mile away. and there were no napkins in the bag. read more

The person making my sandwiches was on her personal cell phone the entire time. She paid far more attention to her cell phone call then she did to my sandwiches. I don't understand why this is allowed. I have posted a photo of her using her cell phone. It's in a red case, and you can't miss it in the photo. She was STILL talking when she gave me sandwiches. Ridiculous and unsanitary. read more
