Recommended by local. Nice customer service but food horrible. My hotdog was cold in the middle and the buns was stale. So disappointed. Daughter's Italian sausage was rubbery. Don't go. Plus realized I did not get pizza puff. Pissed. read more

Not worth it and they will do you dirty if you order uber eats etc , it's almost like you're just donating to their cause so good luck

Might be one of the worst sandwich experiences. The bread didn't have any substance and the filings for the veggie sub were sparse, dominates by this veggie pattie, which was probably the main issue. Not like a veggie sub from Fontano's other similar places. I'm sure the other sandwiches are great, but don't go for a veggie sub here. read more

I ordered a burger and fries. A few hours later I was throwing up and experiencing severe diarrhea (blood too). I'll spare you the rest of the details but I was on and off the toilet every 5 to 10 minutes for a 7 hour period. My stomach is still cramping 14 hours after the initial symptoms. I would not recommend. read more

The price is right for what you want! Well, that is if you are looking for late night drunchies such as a pizza puff or a Philly cheesesteak. Most of the items come with free fries. Never had an issue with service and always had my orders to go. read more

The food is good. I've been a customer for more than a decade now. However, their service has fallen off greatly. The young woman and man who work Sundays are incredibly slow and don't communicate honestly with customers about order statuses. My friend and I waited more than 30 minutes for an order of drumsticks and fries only to keep being told, "Two more minutes." Several other people had come in after us, but got their orders. We just cancelled the order and went elsewhere. read more

DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE! This was the first and last time I will order from this place. Ordered a HOT corned beef sandwich. Picked it up on time and it ice cold. Bread not grilled or even toasted, come on! Thrown in a bag...San which not even put together, just wrapped with things everywhere. No dressing. Terrible. read more

After a year+ on the lookout for this elusive Chicago delicacy, I recently had the good fortune of locating & eating a Jim Shoe (aka Gym Shoe) at Super Submarine on Ashland. For those not in the know, the Jim Show is a corn beef, roast beef and gyro meat filled sandwich originating from Chicago's South and West sides. I paid $14.99 + tax for a 12" beast of a sandwich. The meat was minced, mixed, and served on soft sub bread, then topped with mayo/tzatziki, yellow mustard, giardiniera, shredded lettuce and tomatoes. A blend of three famous sandwiches creating something amazingly delicious and completely American. Why choose one when you can have ALL THREE?! The Jim Shoe has claimed the number one spot in my heart (and stomach) as Chicago's best sandwich. read more

This place is amazing for late-night food. Ali is super great and competent. I came in on a Saturday night when there were like 20 people in the lobby. There were 2 guys working and they did an amazing job of preparing everyone's food. I had the catfish along with the hot wings. Both things were perfectly seasoned. I've also had a chicken sandwich on another occasion, which was also really fresh and good! read more

This place has FIOY* written all over it. It's easy to find the latest greatest trendiest restaurant - I dare you to find better food for a better value, and a nicer owner. That's why locals know best. Four of us ordered a feast fit for eight hungry people. 5 hot dogs, Wings & Thighs, Onion Rings, Fried Mushrooms, French Fries, Drinks - I don't think there was a fried item that escaped us. Total bill? $24. On a normal day we would have spent around $12. They make the perfect Chicago-style dog, and the onions and mushrooms and fries were extreme finger-licking goodness. But the superstar was definitely the fried chicken. I would walk 12 miles in the snow barefoot to sink my teeth into one of these drumsticks. Crispy, juicy, meaty - mercy me, it was so delicious! Most every meal comes with drinks and fries, so if you are strapped for cash, for a few mere dollars you can be sure you are going to leave full and happy, with a couple bucks left in your pocket. No-frills interior, late night window service, and simple, good eats. *Found It On Yelp read more

Small whole in the wall place. Would only recommend for drunk food after the bars if nothing else around is open. Food is decent if you're under the influence. Hygiene and cleanliness could be better. read more

Why is this place getting such good reviews? I have no idea! I was pretty excited even though many people have posted "I wouldn't come here sober" or "after a heavy night of drinking...." but everyone seemed to state that this place was special. I mean I've been to some amazing late night bar foods that I would even eat while sober (although mentally after thinking about the caloric intake sober I probably wouldn't) but this place has nothing special about it. I posted an updated picture of this place. The sign is a faded yellow that it isn't easy to read what you are ordering. The bullet proof glass is a testamate of how long this place has survived in this location. Scared to order anything on the "fish" menu, we decided some burgers and fries. The "cook" pulled some frozen prefabbed burgers out of the freezer and some non-special buns from the pantry. He grabbed a bag of frozen non-special fries out of the freezer and put it in the deep frier. Then it just became a waiting game, let everything get unfrozen and pile everything up. Trust me, you can make a better burger and fries at your home, there is a jewel near by, it will be healthier, cleaner and tastier than whatever will come out of this place. I don't understand everyone's infatuation with their fries either. I mean even the bad reviews throw in a "at least the fries were decent." I think this was the first time that my wife and I didn't finish the fries from a burger and fry combo. Maybe he had just changed the grease or something but they were really nothing special. Yes, this place may be inexpensive, but that comes at a heavy price on your taste buds (or lack of any great taste) and your waste line. Skip it, move on, sober up. read more

Yes, this place is a dive. Yes, it has bulletproof glass between you and "the kitchen" for a reason. Yes, you can make food better than this at your home, especially if you have time and talent. But, the place is called "Super Sub." What the *^%$ did you think they were serving inside, homemade gnocchi served in a plum reduction sauce? Some of the other reviews here are borderline crazy. Coming in with expectations firmly in check, my wife and I came by for lunch yesterday. We ordered the regular gyro combo (gyro, fries, can of soda), and the single cheeseburger combo (again, with fries and soda). Total: $12. For $6/person, you get exactly what you'd expect--good-enough fries, a burger that is questionably ground beef, and a pretty tasty gyro with very tender meat and a pita that did the job. The place was clean enough for us and the service was fast. Solid. Next time, I'm coming back for the two hot dogs and fries combo, which is somehow only $4. If there is even a hint of actual hot dog in the hot dog combo, this might be the best deal in the city (well, for cheap dives anyway). read more

Super Submarine is one of those fast food spots that you can count on te be open late, friendly,fast and affordable. I have only ever ordered delivery but it never takes longer than an hour. I've only ever had 1 complaint and after calling the restaurant they rectified the situation and refunded my money and apologized. I usually order the 5 piece chicken tenders which comes with fries,coleslaw,garlic bread and a drink for $8.99. If I want something quick this is one of my go to spots. I only give it 3 stars because there are plenty of fast food spots like this located on the Southside which are better all around in my opinion. The chicken wings are very good and seasoned perfectly too. Tip: Try the lemon pepper seasoning on your fries. Also, if you haven't already tried it; "Do-Rite Donuts" chicken tenders and chicken sandwiches are SERIOUSLY FINGER LICKING GOOD!!! read more

Super Submarine - 5 piece chicken tenders - Sandwiches Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Literally stumbled into this place because I was drunk, and thought I would try this over La Pasadita. Super Submarine has a super menu. They have sandwiches, wraps, gyros, fries, anything that will taste good if your super drunk! I had the special "Jim Shoes" which as roast beef, corn beef, and gyro meat. It was an overload of flavor. This place is interesting, super drunk spot for sure. read more

Dirty restaurant with terrible customer service. Come on my lunch break for a quick bite. Card machine isnt working, Guy tells me he's gonna write my card # down and charge me later when I refused he took my food and told me its "not his problem the card machine doesnt work" will never get my money again read more

I've lived within two blocks of this place for six years. Yes, I only eat here post-midnight. I used to get the gyros, which were definitely not the best I've had. The hot dogs are as good as any I've had. The polish is great. They've recently stepped up their fry game. I went here last weekend a little after midnight after drinking all day and skipping dinner. The guy behind the counter was battering up some fish so asked about it. He said it was the catfish. Now I like catfish, but never thought about getting it here because I just assumed it would be frozen prepackaged garbage. Nope, he was battering fresh fish on the spot. I got the 3-piece and it was some of the best catfish I've ever had. I think it was $8, came with fries, and was a ton of fish. I'm going back tonight, sober, to have it again. read more

I wasn't even going to give a rating but when i called to complain give feedback and don't get an apology for it ...then here goes ... I ordered a corned beef sub b4 going to my night shift... great price for the sandwich btw I asked for mayo and extra sub sauce to be added (oil/vinegar) the sandwich by default comes with mustard As I was given the food by the cook he promised me I was going to really like it and that he made it very good So of course I get a sandwich that I couldn't eat .... I was at work .... NO MUSTARD barely any mayo.... There was oil on the sandwich but it wasn't with the vinegar...italianseasoning soooo the sandwich absolutely had no taste or flavor basically inedible for me very disappointed threw away the sandwich I wanted to call to ask why there was no mustard on my sandwich and to just let the cook know that his promise of a well made sandwich didn't come thru so that next time they can know not to 4get to put whats supposed to come on a sandwich! Maybe feel better with an apology .... The cashier responds with..... oh ...well I saw him put MUSTARD on the sandwich .... I respond.. I didn't have any MUSTARD on my sandwich and barely any mayo on my sandwich i can't even eat it because it has no flavor but ok thanks have a good night... no apology Of course once I hung up ...now I'm furious of course never going back again... ur sandwich sucks and of course ur cashier does 2 take it from me ur sandwich and cashier will suck from here read more

Tried this place again after getting the munchies for a gyro cheeseburger. Ordered a double gyro cheeseburger (which says it comes with fries and a drink) and a 10 piece drumsticks (comes with fries) for my friend. Since it was about an hour before closing time I specifically asked if they were still delivering (to which the guy said yes, but it'll be about 45 minutes.) What I noticed was that over the phone they charged .10 more than Grubhub and $3 than eat 24 (eat 24 was labeled pick-up only, but had a delivery fee though?) Once again the $5 delivery fee for 2 miles was a bit much. The guy arrives about 45 minutes later with food in tow. Once I get in my apartment and look through it once again they messed up my order. This time I didn't get the soda that came with the cheeseburger (so they up-charged me and then didn't bring the soda.) Last time instead of the 2 gyro pies they gave me 1 spinach pie and sent the wrong drink as well. They improved on the packaging and look of the burger though I have to say. Tried some of the chicken and it was pretty meh and overcooked. 100% messed up orders, the up-charge, and the delivery fee so far makes this place lose a star in my eyes. Never had this problem at other Super Submarines. Don't get delivery, make sure you're in the restaurant so that they get your order right. read more

They always hook it up for me late night!! I love them so much!! They are seriously the best!!! BBQ SAUCE IS AMAZING!!! read more

This place is disgusting. Don't know what kind of hot dogs they serve, but certainly not Vienna beef. Dogs were thin and shriveled; almost looked like beef Jerky. Beef sandwich was dry and flavorless. Ordered at 1am when we were wasted and stoned and could barely eat what was delivered. That's saying a lot. read more

When it is close too 3am your food options are very limited Sun-Thurs. So at least 1 star for being open. The second star for not getting me sick. Wish was better food, but probably never would have came here if I was out for food before 10pm as all restaurants would be open. So if you want better options eat earlier. I had Philly Steak and fries. Too much bread not enough meat, the flavor was not thier. Fries were better than average. read more

Unlike most reviewers, we came here during dinner time on a Saturday night. I was incredibly impressed by the service! The food was what I expected: a massive menu of Chicago-style fast food. I got a hotdog and my husband got a sub. Pretty much all menu items come with a free soda and fries. The fries were quite tasty AND even better with the hot sauce - which tasted surprisingly like Harold's hot sauce. The only negative about the food: they put ketchup on my dog. Now, for the real five star moment: my husband only finished half his sub, so I was trying to wrap it up to take it to go. The employees saw me doing this, and offered to re-wrap it. After all that, they threw in another order of fries! For a fast food joint, I felt like we got better service than we have at some fine dining establishments. A+! read more

We ordered from here on Uber Eats! We got a 12 piece chicken and fries with a soda! Food was still hot when delivered!!! Very good food! Will order again read more

Watch your cards! Somehow, some one ordered $50 worth of food using my card. I live in Atlanta and have not been to Chicago in 20 years. Scam or fraud. Called Super Submarine (773-489-6666) and was told to call my bank, there was nothing they could or would do about it. Very rude and unhelpful. Reported to the fraud department at my bank. read more

This place is by far one of mine and my husband's favorite new places to order from. They have an amazing Gyro cheeseburger and their fries taste like BK fries which is amazing. They also give you a pretty good amount of food for reasonable prices which is great. They also follow our delivery instructions (we dont have a phone) which is also amazing because so many places havent which resulted in our order being returned to the restaurant. I actually just ordered from them now, and can't wait until it get's here. Their prices range from anywhere like 2.99 for cheese fries and up, but nothing is too expensive either. Definitely a new favorite place and I will continue enjoying their good food, good service and good prices. read more

Super Submarine - 2.99 cheese fries - Sandwiches Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Ordered chicken nuggets and a chopped steak sandwich online through UberEATS. Received a burger instead of the steak sandwich. Called Uber back, they refunded the money for the sandwich, but Super Submarine was insisting they provided the correct food. I took a photo of the burger for proof. I like cheeseburgers and never would've cared to get one, but it was not good. Only took one bite. The nuggets and fries were good though! read more

This place is great. I used to live nearby, and anytime I'm in the neighborhood nowadays I stop by. This place has great, cheap, and fast food. Everything you could want when you're hungry, tired, or drunk (speaking with plenty of experience in all three). Shockingly good hamburgers, spinach and feta puffs, gyros, sub sandwiches, the works. Everything is made with care and quickly, and almost always a man named Assad is working: He is one of the nicest, most friendly people I've encountered in the city, and he remembers my name and what I'm doing and even has given my friends an apartment listing when he found out they were getting kicked out of their place. All of this and the man works long, hard hours dealing with some truly unpleasant customers deep into the night. If you go here, say hello. One day I asked him what he thought was best, and told me to order the chicken pita. DO IT, it's so insanely good. This place is fast, with incredibly hard working people that have to put up with a lot of crap (it's one of the only places open all night in the area), and they not only work hard but are incredibly pleasant, helpful, and good at what they do. So if you're nearby, by all means stop in and eat some chicken pita. It looks a bit of a hole-in-the-wall place, but don't be fooled: You will leave happy, very full without spending much money, and you'll probably have great conversation while you wait. I'm surprised to see some negative comments about people who work here being unfriendly, because I've been many, many, many times (again, used to live around the corner) and have always been greeted cheerfully. This place doesn't get enough credit, and has somewhat of a cult following amongst me and my friends. Go here; and when you do, don't forget to try the chicken pita, and don't forget to say hi to my man Assad! read more

Who doesn't like fried food at the end of any night or any time at all? I gotta say, this place is pretty awesome. They have all of the Chicago favorites too. They have by far the best gut buster burger I think I have ever had. The Gyro Double Cheeseburger. Here is a tip, be polite and they will remember you. Tip the guy! You will get food faster and made with more TLC. He is always saying about how people that come in are always so rude. Spread the word! read more

Super Sub has surprisingly decent food for very cheap... The subs are yummy, especially if you're into mayonnaise... they're pretty typical, but in a good way. Everything comes with fries and "free can pop"; it really feels like a bonus every time! I've had the cheeseburger, chicken strips, and fish sandwich as well, and all are solid. The pictures of the food on the wall are kind of horrifying, but just ignore them. Except the picture of the perch dinner, it's too funny to ignore! read more

It's fine. It's cheap. The hot dogs weren't great- buns were soggy and the pickles were sliced which to me is just wrong. I can usually justify an occasional hot dog by the fact that it brings me such joy. But not this one. Also the place is kinda creepy, they chased a bum out the time we were there. The fries, however, are amazing. read more

Ok. Most people would walk right past this place. I, on the other hand, love little fast food joints just like this one. I dont know the guys name that works there (probably 7 days a week), but he is extremely friendly and always has a smile on his face. Its open until 4 or 5. Ive never had anything bad here. The gyros is great, pizza puff, yumyumyum, chicken philly, omfg. This place is the farthest thing from healthy, although they do have a selection of deli sandwiches. (I ordered one once, turkey I think, but to be honest, I dont remember eating it. lolz) The servings are generous, and most meals come with a can of soda and fries. If you are on a diet, dont bother. If you want some delicious fast food and damn near any hour of the day, then this is the place for you. SuperSub, keep doing what you do. And thanks for many late night meals. Oh, tuesday, mother frickin tuesday. They have a dollar menu. Only until 8 or 9pm, but hey, its a deal. read more

Let me preface this with I will never go into this place unless I am drunk. (Literally, I make my fiance (what a stupid word) go pick up the food and its half a block from our apartment.) That being said, it is so cheap. $2 fries are perfect for those late nights after Evil Olive. The cheese fries, I just tried, are even more delicious and only $2.75. I think we know how many pounds I will be gaining this year. The gyros are really delicious. My boy is obsessed with the cheeseburgers and chicken burger (its a school cafeteria chicken patty). His advice: don't get the pizza puff. read more

Living across the street from this fantastical place on the weekends is such a saving grace for those long nights of debauchery. $3 gets you two hot dogs, an order of fries, and a pop. Done and done. Just don't look the cholos in the eyes when waiting in line, fights start easily in that place. read more

I'm very, very local, like a block away. I've been patronizing this place for nearly 3 years. I have yet to have a bad experience. Why is this place lovely? It could be that it's open more or less 24/7, till 4am weekdays, and 5 on weekends. It could be because it has more or less anything you can think of that can be cooked on a grill, or in hot oil. Literally, anything. It could be that it's cheap. I can get a Gryo w fries and soda for $6, a 1/4# cheeseburger w fries n soda for $4, or a footlong steak sub, fries n soda for $6. There are always more than 5 chicken strips in the order, for $6. It could be because the staff are friendly. Not to you? You were probably drunk, or rude, perhaps you demanded your food be cooked really fast when there was one person working and 15 people in the store. I've seen it at least half the times I've been in there. This place is the best in the area, by far, for food in a pinch, or when you're drunk late at night. They even serve breakfast. read more

Cheap, greasy delicious food. I've only had it as take out but at the time I was just excited by the soda selection. Weird. read more

I knew it was the beginning of something special when I was eating my first Italian Beef Sandwich at Super Sub. Midway through my second bite of that salty, greasy, meaty goodness, I was pleasantly surprised to find a bonus amidst my juicy beef: a full-length Italian sausage. No, it wasn't nearly enough to have just a sandwich full of meat as big as my thigh - they had to put a fucking sausage inside. The fried mushrooms and orka are incredible. I stayed in Chicago for three months and gained about 13 pounds. Of those 13 pounds, I'd say nine were from Super Sub. read more

Food is good delivery came fast nothing was forgotten and food was fresh and hot!!! Yes i would recommend and plan to eat there again.

This place is amazing. I had my first Italian Beef Sandwich after one of my roommates kept telling me how awesome they are. It's beef with a freakin sausage in the middle. I had never seen so much beef in my life! Because it was close to my apartment, my roommates and I were regulars there. Not the healthiest food, but delicious. And I love the fried mushrooms and fried okra. It's also a great after-hours joint to go to. When my roommates and I left, we had all gained about 20 pounds each. I blame it on Super Sub. read more
