My husband and I consider ourselves sandwich connoisseurs, and we honestly can't believe we don't come here more often. I usually order a simple turkey and cheese, but this time I went with the Super Bird (plus onions) and was in absolute heaven. My husband ordered the Fuggedaboutit, and we were both blown away.

We came specifically to try the famous Caesar wrap we saw all over TikTok, which people have been raving about. Honestly, it was really disappointing: Missing Key Ingredients: There were no croutons in the wrap. Flavor & Temperature: The dressing didn't taste like Caesar dressing at all, and the chicken was served cold. Overall, the flavor was way off. Chicken Quality: I found fatty cartilage pieces in the chicken, which means it wasn't cleaned properly before preparation. Overall, between the high prices and the subpar wrap, it unfortunately didn't live up to the hype. Wouldn't go back and wouldn't trust these tiktokers.

The owners were working that Saturday, and we learned they have been in business for 11 years. They were incredibly friendly and welcoming. I ordered the Shaken Garlic Steak, and my wife had the Banh Mi. The bread was flaky on the outside and soft on the inside. The meat in both sandwiches was tender, and all of the ingredients were fresh and flavorful. I also enjoyed the homemade macaroni salad, and the oatmeal cookie--made without raisins--was a light and tasty treat that completed a delicious lunch. We only wish we had discovered this place sooner. It will definitely become a regular stop for us whenever we travel to the Los Angeles area.

We tried the pork belly and the cubano sandwiches. They were excellent in every way. The cubano was true to spec. Tender ham, mustard pickles on a beautiful roll. Simply delicious. The Pork Belly was spectacular. The pork was tender and flavorful and the cucumbers, cilantro, onions and jalapeños made it a flavor delight. All on a delicious roll. Just writing this makes me want another one! However, there's one thing you do not want to miss. Their newest addition is Salt Bread. These are sold 4 to a package and and are like the yummiest croissant you've ever tasted. I was sitting waiting for my order to be completed when the owner cam out with a bit of one on a fork. I was hooked. They're already baked, but the instructions are to put them in an air fryer (we used a small convection toaster oven) for 2-4 minutes at 350. I also like them split and toasted. They're fantastic! You'll want to put The Sandwich Society on your restaurant list! (And you'll want Salt Bread in your pantry too!).

The firehouse decor and overall branding of Firehouse sets apart from so many other Quick Service restaurants that are redesigning to be more "professional" (I prefer the term "sterile"). Out of all the restaurants in this shopping center that I have patronized in my 23 years as a local, Firehouse Subs is my new favorite on account of great service, a charming ambiance, and an AMAZING product!

The quality has just been so utterly consistent. These baked goods truly taste rustic and homemade; I believe the freshness is guaranteed and everything is baked daily. I always buy the shuku pan to make sandwiches my daily lunches and the country bread/sourdough for my avocado toast and breakfasts. The sandwiches made in-house are also recommended especially the chicken katsu and the assorted ham/tuna/egg salad. I like the croquette and egg salad in a bun especially. All of these are savory and flavorful yet subtle. I also recommend any of the pastries including curry pan, melon pan, and of course the strawberry croissants but beyond that I also really like the strawberry banana croissant and blueberry croissant. There is also a selection of drinks made in-house café-style as well as bottled Japanese drinks. The staff are friendly and I really like the space even though it's small. You can find seating outside especially if you avoid rush hours. Of all the three locations, this one is my favorite because it's so rustic and historic and really fits in with the overall vibe and aesthetic of Old Town Tustin and the El Camino Real. Please check this bakery out; it's one of the best in all of SoCal in my opinion.

Many of them contain alcohol, which makes it difficult for families with children, as well as guests who don't consume alcohol for personal or religious reasons. The desserts look amazing, and my kids would love to try them, but unfortunately our choices are very limited because of the alcohol content. I really hope Cream Pan will consider offering more alcohol-free versions so everyone can enjoy these beautiful desserts. We love coming here and would love to see more options for all guests.

Told us everything is made in-house, even the sauces! That's really good to know and makes me feel better about the food. She even gave me a free delicious cookie for being a first timer! And she comes around from time to time to check on us to make sure we're enjoying our food. Really nice to receive this kind of attention from a fast-casual restaurant. The Santa Maria BBQ Salad looked good but I asked her if they could substitute the chicken with the Chimichurri steak and she said "sure!" And surprisingly they did not charge extra! I love restaurants that are flexible like this. My salad bowl was SO good and filling. Lots of good stuff in it: chopped salad mix, coleslaw mix, Applewood-smoked bacon, crumbled goat cheese, corn & black bean salsa, grape tomatoes. Served with chipotle ranch dressing and blackberry BBQ sauce on the side, and a fresh baked focaccia bread. The only thing I wasn't a huge fan of was the cold meat. I was under the impression that the meat was going to be hot. My BF got the Southwestern Sandwich. It was delicious. All the Southwestern flavors were there but not overwhelming. The sandwich was hot and juicy. For a restaurant that makes everything from scratch, their prices are very affordable. Both our meals were only $27 total. Friendly service, great food and good prices - what not to love?

I would give it 10 stars if I could! From the friendly service to the delicious sandwiches to the extremely affordable price, Oscar's is the best choice when you need a quick bite to eat during work hours or on the weekends. Nowadays it's really hard to find quick, healthy choices for an affordable price, and that's the main reason I'm so glad I discovered Oscar's. I commute from LA to Orange County at least 2-3 times a week and I always look forward to my lunches at Oscar's. Highly recommend the BBQ Chicken salad, macaroni salad (as a side), chicken sandwich, or turkey sandwich. read more
