Little King is an Omaha classic. There's just something about the oil-and-vinegar on the shredded lettuce, and the combination of all the other flavors. It all works so well together - and normally I can't stand lettuce on sandwiches. I only ever get the Royal Treat so I can't comment on the other menu items. Except the big pickle. Really, really big. It was delicious but probably way more sodium than I need, especially alongside a meal of cured meats. My mouth is watering so much thinking about it. I will probably get it again next time anyway. I'm giving 4 stars because the way they stack the sandwich is kind of strange and difficult to eat, since the meat and cheese aren't folded. read more

Little King - The Classic! Royal Treat! And also a gigantic pickle - Delis Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

I asked the owner a simple question about my food and him and the worker on shift turned it into a whole argument. If this is how they treat there costumers at this location they won't stay open very long. It was annoying having to argue with the workers about my order in front of other customers. This is the most unprofessional I have seen any company act. read more

Went to the Dodge Street location about 730 and ordered a foot long Italian. There was only one person working, so I knew I was not going to get a sandwich quickly. Oddly enough, it came out almost immediately. I got home and found out why. The meats and cheese base was obviously pre-made, stuck together like school glue, and at least 2 days old. Never again. read more

Can you give a place a negative star rating? Based on my last visit, that is what I would of done if possible. I waited a day to post this to cool off and I am still upset on how we were treated. We have supported this store for years, even through Covid, this was one of our main stops. They changed their Customer Appreciation program 2 years ago and we signed up for the new program. It was not as good as the old one but it is what they have. They sent me an anniversary text the other day and it stated Little King Alert: Thanks for being a part of our program for 2 year! Use kiosk or click tlcx.co/u1au @location to redeem 50% off your meal up to $5. We decided to drive the 25 miles to visit Little King in the Old Market. We went and ordered my favorite, the number 11. It started when at 2:00 they only had white bread, already out of all of there other breads. That was ok and we ordered our sandwich and had it made. When I presented the text, the lady asked her son what it was and he spoke to her in another language. She then took $2.50 off a $13 order. I asked why the discount was not $5 as the text said and she said you get 50% off of $5 and that is $2.50. I explained that is not what states and the son and mother started yelling at me that is what it says. Now the Dad comes over and is yelling that as well. I told them that is not what it said. They took the sandwich and said that they would give it to the homeless and not to come back. This is to a loyal customer of many years and when they were wrong. They are not appreciative of the customers and loyalty of the money spent there and to yell at a customer when you are wrong! I will never step foot in there again and suggest others to do the same. Not only could I not use my reward there, I could not use it at other Little Kings as I had to select it and it only allows a few minutes to use. This is not view towards all Little Kings as I still love the other locations and I suggest people to support them. read more

Little King - Clearly shows a $5 discount not $2.50 - Delis Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Visiting from out of town, I woke up hungry for something of substance. I was the first customer of the day and very excited to get the royal treat aka the big daddy of Italian sandwiches! We were greeted by a friendly owners. I love how it's a family run operation and you can feel the care and service the provide to their customers. Everything was fresh and tasted amazing! After a day of eating queso, bbq, and all around parry food, it felt great to nosh on something fresh! Would def recommend and if I lived nearby I would be coming back often! Sandwich was piled high of fresh veggies and they didn't skimp on the meats and cheeses! Half a sandwich is more than enough to get me thru until dinner. read more

Little King - The 11. Royal Treat King Size Sandwich. Sooo good! I split half with my hubby and this will keep us full all day at the zoo! - Delis Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

This is just one of those times where I hope good people who deserve the world get it. The folks who run this store are kind, sweet and polite. Every time I visit I'm greeted with a smile and great taste. If you choose a sandwich shop in town, please choose this one :) read more

Nice family run Little King, very fresh (like a Deli has to be) and very good value. My favorite Deli in east Omaha area, every time I am here it is clean, with great service. I had a toasted BLT with pepper jack cheese, omy goodness, look out, amazing. My date had the Italian club also good, as they always are. read more

Drove to the little king on Cass. Arrived at 6:15 pm. Sign on the door said open till 7. Door was locked and staff just looked at me. No note on door or anything about dining room closed. ​ read more

Poor little king worker...she was working alone on the weekend with a really long line. My sympathy extends to her. However, esp when you're making food right in front of the customer, you should be sure that you use clean practices when making their food. She swiped at her brow and hair a few times (no hairnet) and didnt change gloves between customers..I definitely had an onion taste on my bread which I didnt really care for since I didnt order any raw onions on my sandwich...but the guy in front of me did. She also rushed and just slapped a lot of the ingredients on the bread while making it. I want to believe this is forgivable bc she seemed really stressed out and it's not her fault no one is working with her on a holiday...but still. I do like that the deli meat and cheese is sliced super thin and freshly sliced for each sandwich. The sandwich we ordered and shared we actually really enjoyed, it was one of the king's favorites (royal treat) on the menu. It tasted fresh and for $5.25 also a little steep for the size (maybe 6-8 inches). Mixed feelings on returning. It does remind me of jimmy johns. read more

we ordered 3 sandwiches and a bowl of chili to have them delivere. when we received our sandwiches ALL 3 were wrong! I tried calling the store 3 times-twice was no answer and the 3rd I started by saying our sandwiches were wrong the owner told me they are NEVER wrong and I should just eat it. I told him 1 person was allergic to onions which rhey had put on all sandwiches and he repeated they NEVER make sandwiches wrong and told me to bring him the receipt and hung up on me. I went into the store and he yelled at me saying I was trying to get food for free-I had stated I wanted the sandwiches remade or any apology and he said NO WE ARE NEVER WRONG! That is when I also noticed my receipt and my credit card were billed 2 different amounts! I usually never recommend not to use a business but this one you should clearly avoid!! read more

Little King WAS so great back in the day!...the number 11 was salami, ham,capicola, prosciutto and provolone. Mortadella is basically boloney with chunks of fat. Oh my the good ole days!!! read more

Who would've thought a sandwich place would've been the best food of our trip?! It was the best sandwich I've had! I had the Royal. My mouth waters thinking about it! read more

Being a Little King fanatic, I have eaten at almost all the Little Kings in Omaha , NE. This is my second best. They are very welcoming when you get there. They make the sandwiches with stacks of meat and fresh veggies. They never disappoint! Great place to grab a sandwich that will satisfy your hunger for hours. read more

So I didn't have breakfast & it was lunch time so I was hungry. I originally set out from the Doubletree to go to Subway. But then I figured I could have Subway anywhere, I wanted something special. Whipped out my Android phone & found Little King. The dude working the counter was great! Provided information about their sandwiches, meats & the origination of the business 40 + years ago. I was trying to be healthy and ordered the #3 Grilled Mesquite Chicken on Wheat with lettuce, tomato, green pepper & brown mustard. Had to be a little naughty and add bacon to it. While it was perfectly tasty & adequate I was left wanting. I should have ordered their signature sandwich with the works or something else along those lines. read more

Since the new management around 2020, this Little King has been outstanding. It is run by a family that works very hard and they make HUGE sandwiches with lots of meat and cheese, fresh bread, and great toppings. Always friendly and definitely the best value for a hearty sub you'll find anywhere. This is definitely my favorite Little King, wish all their locations were run by this family. read more

I was not overly impressed with this place. The deli meat sandwich that I ordered was not bad, and the bread was great. It just didnt really stand out at all. Service was a bit lethargic read more

It'd be fine but 2 out of 4 people making our sandwiches had their masks under their nose. Literally breathing onto our food they're putting together. read more

Bread was the best. Service and greetings were outstanding. Royal treat is the way they treat.

This is my favorite sandwich place ever ! The meat and cheese is freshly sliced and the deserts and soups are made fresh daily I love all the employees I've met here as well. They're all super friendly and make a mean sandwich! If you get a chance to meet the manager Dave you'll love the restaurant even more ! Definitely recommend. read more

I have little king once a year on the first Saturday of December every year because when I was little we went to tha star city parade in Lincoln and then walked around the corner for lunch after and had Little King so every year on the first Saturday of December I have Little King it should really be on the calendar by now as Traditional Little King Day read more

Great sandwiches! The bread is awesome, and quality of the meat is top notch. They even slice your meat right in front of you, so you know it's fresh. Little King is like a better quality Subway; I'll be back. read more

A great little deli shop that we happened to stop into on our visit to Omaha. Highly recommended!

For some Nostalgic reason I decided to grab a Royal treat well needless to say nostalgia is dead here. Upon walking in one worker sitting in doorway to back area on his cell phone stood at counter he said he would be with us in a minute. Continued his phone activity the place was completely empty of customers should've been a sign but I stayed sandwich was nothing like I remember , and every table in the place needed to be wiped down the floors need to be swept glass stainless steel out front should be wiped a little too dirty for me. Weird mismatch lighting not that it matters but shows a sign of laziness for your business. Worker went back to phone entire time we were there no actual work ethic. I wouldn't go back here. Little king is dying.... read more

100%. Little King is the way to go. Super fresh. They literally slice the sandwich meat in front of you. Can't ask for more. Plus. They're super nice. I've literally been back like four times in the last 2 weeks. read more

It doesnt look very appetizing when you walk in, the meat is all wrapped in the front display fridge, but everything is actually fresh and delicious. Service is friendly. Great sub... if they say "the sandwich comes with the combo" that really means theyre going to upcharge you for the combo if you get it... i hate when they do that. read more

Amazing!!! Love Little King and always hit up this joint in Omaha! The people are awesome and the value is awesome. This place is the best!

I love Little King. It is always my first stop into town and my last stop before I fly out. It's what I miss the most about living in Omaha (other than family and friends). A sandwich doesn't get any better than this. The bread, meats, cheese, veggies are always fresh! read more

It was ok. I stopped because it has been a favorite in the past. I got the royal treat (actually 2 of them), a half meatball sub and a bowl of chicken tortilla soup. My 14 year old son liked the meatball sub. We shared to chicken tortilla soup and it was good. The royal treat was very bland. I have had them in the past and loved them. I think it was the tomatoes that were the problem. It was made correctly and the staff was very polite and professional. I will probably be less likely to stop there again as it was just OK and tasted much more like the competition than it did in the past. A disappointment. read more

Very upsetting. The cashier charged our friend on accident for $5215.52 on one sandwich. We were a group and got very upset. The manager came in and was very rude...yelled at us. Extremely bad service and ruined our entire trip. No Appologizes were given. read more

Mmm. Regular sandwiches. White bread, minimal veggies, not much to distract you from ordering all crazy. It's close and easy to go to, so unfortunately I frequent here a little too often. read more

Awesome! It's like that other sub shop that I won't talk about on here. I was susprised to be the only one here during lunch hour on a week day....I expected business people to be everywhere. Fortunately, that meant my food and service was quite good. The bread was fresh and tasty and the meats were sliced super thin but they still put quite a bit on. With chips and a drinik it was a little expensive, but I'd be willing to pay it just to come here instead of you know where else. I like the little king special sandwiches, great choice of meats. read more

This place is just a little hole in the wall place but I liked it. I found it kinda pricey for what I ordered. But the food and cookies were good. Employee were nice too. read more

This is our favorite sandwich shop. I love that the meats and cheeses are sliced fresh while ordering. Great prices!!

Pretty good sandwiches with a bare bones college town/no frills atmosphere.great customer service, very friendly. I wouldn't go out of my way to come here, especially if you ate from out of town but they make a good sandwich if you live locally. read more

I think they've recently changed ownership and management (again). They've struggled a bit in the past with customer service but the changes they've made recently are for the better. Friendly sandwhich builders and they have fresh brewed iced tea again, which makes me happy. A regular go-to for me for a quick, cheap veggie sandwich piled high with all my favs. Way better than Subway! ;) read more

Real meat, fresh sliced and piled high. Excellent bread. You have to get a King Royal Treat the Little King Way.

I really like the sandwiches at Little King. But they really need more employees. I've been standing in line for 20 minutes now because they only have ONE employee working - this poor guy is completely overwhelmed. I don't recommend coming here if you're in a hurry. read more
