Pretty subpar experience overall. Walked in at 1pm on a Thursday; no line, no rush. An employee with a septum and nose piercings (not the problem, I have both) appeared from around the corner, planted herself in front of the register, and offered absolutely nothing: no greeting, no acknowledgment, just awkward eye contact and silence. When I placed my order, every interaction ended with a flat, dismissive "is that it?" Same interaction for my partner. I've worked in customer service since I was young, alongside my mother who owns a small business, and this was some of the worst service I've encountered. Cold, unwelcoming, and completely unprofessional. Should've went to the Lacey location like people were saying. Bread was really good, especially toasted. Sandwich was decent. read more

I mean... this is on me. Truly. I forgot how bad this place has gotten. This is all lettuce and a couple slices of meat. Not an Italian. Been going here for over a 10 years... and this location keeps getting worse. DO NOT COME TO THIS LOCATION. They apparently don't like state workers and live for school trips. read more

Meconi's Italian Subs - Anyone want a lettuce and salami? Italian (Whole) - Italian Near Me - Olympia, Washington

Meconi's - Olympia, WA It was my first time here so I asked the guy who was ahead of me in line what I should get and he recommended the Italian Cosmo style which means they toast it up so the meat gets activated. I also got garden salad 1000 island dressing* both were delicious . * The thousand Island dressing was actually "Newman's own 2000 island dressing" which was not my favorite. It has bacon in it which I've never heard of in 1000 Island and there was no sense of relish either. Typically I think of 1000 island, it's ketchup, mayo, and relish. The food came out in a matter of minutes and they brought it to my table. I would say a half sandwich is plenty for most people. I thought I wanted a whole she recommended a half and it was plenty. 30 minute parking around back read more

This is a great place for lunch. Whether you have it for take-out, delivery, or catered, their food tastes great. The service is very fast, although it can get crowded during the lunch hour. I always order online and then pick it up. The ambiance is usually super quiet until lunch. At noon the place gets full and the conversations get amplified. I love their Philly cheesesteak sandwich or salad. The meal deal includes a drink and chips or cookie. Their ingredients are always fresh and their bread is really good. You can also customize your order by adding or subtracting ingredients. The prices are not bad for lunch food. All in all, you will enjoy having lunch here. read more

I stopped by this Italian sandwich shop for the first time recently, and I was pretty impressed with the portion sizes. I ordered half a Philly cheesesteak, and when it came out, I honestly thought it was a full-size sandwich. For extra toppings, there's an additional charge. They have a solid selection of soda on tap and teas in the fridge, which is nice if you're looking for a drink to go with your meal. On my second visit, I tried the Southwestern salad with added chicken and chili on the side. They don't offer any toppings for the chili. The salad was great, but the chili was a bit too tart for my taste. One thing to note: you'll have to find street parking, and it can be a bit tricky. Be mindful of the lunch hour--there's usually a large crowd, but they're relatively quick at serving your food, so you won't be waiting too long. read more

Meconi's Italian Subs - Italian Near Me - Olympia, Washington

Good tasting sandwiches at a low price. Friendly staff. Nest to avoid lunch hour as it gets really busy.

Good place to stop for a sandwich when you're passing through Olympia. Excellent meatball sub!

It's basically build a sandwich with quality ingredients from a local business. Had a great BLT. The garlic cheese bread was just not good. I do not recommend it. Zero stars. It needs to be toasted well, the cheese melted well, spices to zest it up and not slapped together like a sandwich. read more

I stop by on occasion whenever I can for lunch and it's always busy, but the staff there are great at balancing the lunch rush.

I'd say Meconi's is a 3.5 but since that's not an option I went with a 4. The bread is AMAZING and fluffy and the subs are really tasty but they don't have many toppings. The toppings that they do come with (meat, lettuce, tomato, onion) are also a little on the sparse side. Portion size overall is pretty large though. A 6 inch is definitely filling. The cookies are made fresh each day. Tried the snickerdoodle & it was okay but not amazing. Wouldn't get the cookie again but would definitely go back for a sub because the bread was bomb. read more

Best Italian Sub Only sandwich I ever crave and want to get outside of home! Homemade fresh bread is perfect! read more

Good sandwiches, bread is always fresh. Chicken Philly my fave. Soups and chili tasty. Cookies are great, all 3 flavors!

Delicious sandwiches and freshly baked bread and cookies - wow! This place is really nice to grab a quick lunch. I have tried their Italian sub, corned beef and chicken cheesesteak and have enjoyed it all. Their bread is fresh and tasty and all the flavors are on point. Ample amount of indoor seating and food is also out pretty quick so thats fast service. Their cookie also tastes nice. Menu is sorted for folks who like hot or cold subs and some soup as well or chips. I usually get hot subs but I would go back for their Italian subs every time I am in town. read more

It's been a while since I've eaten at Meconi's but man these subs were great. I got the simple combo with the default toppings. I didn't think to get it toasted until after it arrived so that'll be for next time! The sub was generously filled with fresh toppings which I appreciated. Lots of mayo which wasn't necessarily a bad thing but definitely more than I'd spread on a sandwich at home. The bread was extremely soft and fluffy but there was also A LOT of bread to eat if you get the whole sub. I ended up pulling off some chunks. But overall it was delicious and super filling! Definitely worth stopping in. Next time I come back I'd probably use a mustard instead of the mayo, add a bunch of extra toppings, and make sure it gets it toasted! read more

Best Philly cheesesteak I've had outside of the East Coast here on west coast and I'm from new York city.

I love a good combo cosmo'd... but to be totally honest, I think it's a local thing. If you're not from here, you're probably not going to be overly impressed with the actual sandwich fixings. (But almost everyone agrees the fresh baked rolls are pretty great!) Their sandwiches are large. You may be tempted to get a whole, but you really only need a half, unless of course you're sharing. Their salads are large and tasty as well. Love their snickerdoodles! read more

My only real complaint is the terrible parking - but, hey, it is Olympia and parking is difficult in most cities. I found the service at the counter to be good. Not overly friendly but not rude, either. Very clean interior and a fairly simple menu board. Chose the "select 3 meats" with pepperoni, coppa and salami. Nice soft roll with cheese, lettuce, tomato, oil and vinegar, etc. Hit the spot for me. Next time will add peppers and olives. read more

Someone should Putman warning non the door "May become an addiction" ... Inwork in the bldg and have found my way here 3 lunches and 2 dinners and it's only been 2 weeks! The Italian and the Canadian Bacon are my 2 favorites along with a side.of potato salad (×2) talented home for dinner! Thus place is the real deal! Staff is friendly and quick! I'll be back (more.often than I would like to admit ! ++Do they have a punch card or rewards system? read more

I had eaten there several times in the past, but today when I tried to order the Egg Salad Sub, I was told they don't make it anymore, but it was still on their electronic menu boards. I told them that I will never eat there again. Be warned that if you want Egg Salad, this is not the place to find it anymore. read more

Good but honestly I would completely avoid the hot sausage and meatball sub, both are completely awful compared to their Philly/Chicken cheesesteaks! read more

The Philly beef was hot and delicious. The beef was tender with just the right amount of spice. They wrapped it well. It stayed hot on our walk back to the hotel. And the service was pleasant. It wasn't particularly cheap. But a good sandwich is worth the money. read more

Love their Phillys .top notch. I drive two towns over to get their food . Wish there was one closer then 25 miles read more

Meconis is a place where I have tried all of the subs, and my only issue is .. I have a really hard time deciding what to get because they are all SO amazing. Anytime I have moved away from WA, I have never found subs this delicious, and it's always where I go first upon my return to WA. The bread is stand alone the best ever . The meats are quality , and the veggies are fresh always . I really like the super clean establishments and the people working in there are always friendly, polite, and get special requests done right. I've been to three different locations , I used to live closest to Hawks Prairie, now I live closer to Tumwater . I really really wish we had a location closer to either Centralia or Chehalis . - just a thought Anyway, I HIGHLY recommend you try more than one kind of dub until you find your favorite. read more

I had a craving for a hoagie so an Italian sub from Meconi's sounded like it should work. I ordered via DoorDash. Not sure if I'll do that again because a person named Sierra picked up the order and came to my house and sat outside for ten minutes and then I got a call that my order spilled so it was canceled. How does one spill a sandwich?? It was awfully sus and DoorDash said they'd refund my money in 3-5 days and no sandwiches for dinner. I made another order because I really wanted a sandwich. The next door dasher sent a text saying the bag ripped, but he'd still bring my sandwiches. Finally got our dinner an 90 minutes later then my original order ( I live 8 minutes away) but have health issues from just picking up the sandwiches myself. My Italian sandwich was decent and the Philly steak needed some seasoning, I was just relieved to finally get dinner. read more

Delicious subs but have received the wrong sandwich from delivery orders numerous times. They've had the right receipt on them, but the wrong contents. read more

Got the original Italian for takeout. The sandwich itself was good, reminded me of jimmy johns but with better bread. The bread tasted super light and flavorful. I'd say the prices were comparable to jimmy johns. I would for sure go back to try more options next time I'm in the area. read more

This was the best sandwhich I'd ever had made by a restaurant! The place was clean and the staff were really friendly and nice. I definitely reccomend coming here! read more

My all time favorite subs. Bread is incredibly soft, plenty of toppings. Sometimes they don't get the order completely correct - items requested not to be on the sandwich are added or items paid for are not added. I usually get a whole sandwich and save the other half for dinner or when I get hungry again. Very simple atmosphere, family friendly. read more

Just ordered a couple sandwiches from this spot...first one was a turkey, the other pastrami. I've been supporting Meconi's for decades and I have to say this was a major disappointment. There was literally one slice of turkey on this $7 sandwich. The bread is great as always (which is why the second star) and the rest of the toppings are fine...i just cannot co-sign on paying $7 for bread and lettuce. Please fix this major discrepancy if you want to maintain longtime, loyal patrons. read more

Best sub sandwich place for over 40+ years! I've been coming to MECONI's since I was a kid. The combo with red Tabasco is delicious. The veggie with Tabasco is also great. All of their salads and soups are homemade and so wonderful. The smell when you walk thru the doors should be made into a candle. Lol all of their food is good. Cannot go wrong eating at MECONI's! read more

The best around. Best bread, fresh ingredients, great customer service. Must go if you stop in Olympia!!

Great sandwich shop. Ingredients were fresh and bread was on point. Would definitely recommend over any other shops in the area. I commute from Tacoma to get their subs. read more

I ordered a Phili Cheesesteak sandwich and it was excellent. I was genuinely impressed because I unfortunately came in expecting to be underwhelmed. I was a little disappointed that we were unable to get the juice for the child in my group right away. We were made to wait for the bottle of juice to come out with all of the sandwiches. Seemed a little silly to me. Otherwise, a fine sandwich shop. read more

Always a great choice, no matter the sandwich. It's an excellent, iconic place for thurston county...

Came here with some coworkers after a meeting. As a disclaimer, I'm not super familiar with the italian sub genre. That being said, they make a pretty solid sandwich. The idea of vinaigrette + mayo is a bit off-putting to me, so I got mine sans mayo. Anyhow, the staff seemed a bit disorganized, and a lot of their interactions assume you're a regular, there's little explanation for a newcomer, and am I supposed to get up and get my sandwich, or will they bring it to my table? So ya, I definitely wouldn't avoid it but they could use some polishing regarding new customer experience. read more

Delicious subs and salads. I have enjoyed every item I have ordered! Sooo much better than the usual sub options!

I don't believe I have ever had a bad sub from Meconi's. I'm old school when it comes to subs. I want a good firm, crusty roll with lots of the good stuff inside. It should drip a little but not so much that you get it on your shirt. The sub should also excite your taste buds all the way through the sandwhich. Nothing worse than a dry sandwhich. Meconi goes the extra mile with their subs. Subway and Jimmy John's are not even real subs by comparison. Service may not always be overly friendly but they get the job done. I just want that sandwhich. Prices are getting a little high but half of a sandwhich is really a full sandwhich for most folk. read more
