I wouldn't call it a deli really, but the food served here was on point and for a fair price. I picked up a serving of the Shepherd's Pie; ranch-flavored chicken wings; and $0.99 Dasani water. The chicken wings were pretty good, but the Shepherd's Pie is what did it for me. Not only did you get a heaping pile of it, it was definitely kind of the comfort food your mom used to make. It was so filling I could have done without the wings. The station itself is a bit run down but it's actually pretty clean, considering (unless you're from some affluent neighborhood). Customer service was good but nowhere close to the "omotenashi (おもてなし)" you'd experience in Japan. The bathroom was a pretty standard small gas station bathroom. It was clean but with that 'perma-stench' aroma. You access it from the outside by the diesel pumps.

They also offer a 5% discount if you pay in cash, which is a nice bonus. I got "The Hummer," which has turkey, feta, black olives, tomato, onion, and lettuce on rye-pumpernickel with mayonnaise and house dressing. It was so good. The bread was SUPER YUMMY and looked beautiful too (if you care about aesthetics). All the flavors blended together really well without anything overpowering, and it had this refreshing quality to it that made it stand out. I would definitely order it again. My partner got "The Sauté," which is turkey with Parmesan, Cheddar, Swiss, and a mix of sautéed onions, peppers, and mushrooms on a warm poppy seed roll, plus lettuce, tomato, mayonnaise, and house dressing. The roll was good and it was very flavorful but is was the combination of the veggies, turkey, and melted cheeses gave it a lot of depth. Everything tasted fresh. I got a combo with Mrs. Vickie's salt and vinegar chips, which is always a good sign. And the sweet tea--wow. It wasn't overly sweet, but what really stood out was the flavor. You could actually taste the tea, with slightly minty, earthy notes that made it feel really well done. That's rare. Overall, for what this place is, it deserves all stars. The staff was kind and helpful, the food came out quickly, and everything we had was genuinely good. P.S. There is no photos because I forgot due to it being so da** good!

Not even three bites in the whole thing ripped in half.The onion rings were disappointing. They were pretty dark and were soft and doughy when they cooled down. I barely ate one and won't order them again. I will try this spot again for the sandwich and maybe I'll try the fries next time.

The Rueben sandwich had about 1/2 inch of meat and was barely 1/2" high including the sauerkraut! It was served with paper and a toothpick. The chicken cashew salad had four pieces of cashew and it was about 1/16 of the size of a big nut. The bread came apart and you could not eat it with your hands. It was on a thin paper plate. It was so the thinnest possible layer of chicken and was not Bibb lettuce but cheap shredded iceberg lettuce. The two salads were served in styrofoam and were boring and cheap. This all cost us $69 for a cheap poorly made lunch.

I used to work there years ago. At that time Tallahassee Jimmy Johns were the most expensive of the franchise in the country. The individual owners are allowed to charge more than corporate. I once personally heard the owner justify this by saying that college kids with their parents credit cards are too dumb to notice when they are getting ripped off. The franchise owner in Tallahassee is a greedy jag off whom failed out of college himself and had to have his rich father buy him into the franchise to get a life he couldn't accomplish for himself. Jimmy Johns in general are ok, but I would never recommend the one in Tallahassee to anyone. read more

Let me start by saying that parking can be a bit of a challenge, but I was here early enough before the lunch rush so that parking wasn't an issue. I would say that that would probably not be the case if I came about a half hour later. The ambiance here is about what you would expect from a Jersey Mike's Subs. It is bright and inviting enough, but definitely a no-frills type ambiance. My go-to at Jersey Mike's Subs is an Italian for a cold sub and the Big Kahuna for their hot sub. Both are good and I would recommend either. Jersey Mike's Subs are my favorite of the national sub chains. Something that I think is a huge plus is that Jersey Mike's Subs are pretty consistent at any of their locations. That says a lot to the training Jersey Mike's Subs offers to its franchisees. I would definitely recommend this particular location.

Try to outsmart the rush and come in at 1:45 p.m., when the place is empty, and you can still wait 18 minutes just to be acknowledged by an employee. By 1:30, they are all outside smoking blunts, and as a customer, you clearly mean very little to them. I am done with this location. My $12 a week may not seem like much, but do the math. That is $624 a year this store will no longer get from me. I might consider giving this place another shot once it becomes public knowledge that the guilt-driven tip prompt is gone from the point-of-sale screen. These employees are making far more than restaurant servers, and this service does not justify asking for tips.
