Recently came back here after living out of state for over 10 years and this place is still as amazing as ever! Lines can be long at prime times but the wait is worth it. Big portions and affordable prices, you can't go wrong. I ordered half a sub and only managed to eat half of it in one sitting. My favorites are the #5 (super sub that has it all) and the #11 (meatball sub). Everything is fresh and tastee and you won't regret it! If you love some spice in your life, don't forget to add hot peppers- you will not be disappointed! Also, the potato salad is amazing- not too creamy and just tastes super fresh as it has big chunks of potato. Oh Tastees how I've missed you.... read more

A fellow coworker brought this in a few days ago. I loved how fresh and soft the sub was. The vegetables were fresh as well. The sub was loaded with stacks of cheese. Overall, a delicious snack for a fair price. read more

Tastee Sub Shop - 14. Whole Cheese Sub - Delis Near Me - Edison, New Jersey

A solid sandwich . Nothing fancy. Nothing extra . Solid bread , solid deli offers and fresh toppings. The portion is big so that's a plus . I got a whole (largest ) tuna , and it was okay- good . If I am ever was craving a regular deli sub , this would be a go to . I wish they had more hot sandwich offerings like steak and cheese but it's an old school traditional sub shop . I think they get a lot of regulars and that's because they know what they are getting when they enter the doors . read more

Went to this place on the recommendation of a colleague. It looks like a hole in the wall but is very busy. They staff inside was very friendly and didn't rush me to order. There were two tables inside but pushed to the side. I decided to eat in my car. I ordered a roast beef with provolone, lettuce and tomato, OV, oregano. They did ask twice what I wanted on it but it's better than not getting what I wanted. The making is like an assembly line. First they cut the roast beef and put that and the cheese on. The next step is the other stuff. I got a water and small cup of macaroni salad which was really good. I should've gotten a bigger container. I would've given 5 stars but on the first half of the sub the roast beef wasn't to my liking, as it wasn't rare enough. It was borderline well done. On the second half, the roast beef was rare. I do recommend this place and will definitely try them again when in the area. I hear their Italian sub is superb. read more

AMAZING ! I am a huge sub person and when my friend told me these were the best subs he's ever had, I had to try them ! I traveled 25 mins simply to get this sub but it was well worth it. This place must be popular because when I walked in there was a line about 15 people long, but it moved super fast. My half sub plus a drink was o my $7 which I think is an absolute steal. The quality of the meat and toppings were great and the bread was soft just how I like it ! I will be returning here for more ! read more

Tastee Sub Shop - Turkey, provolone, mayo, lettuce, oil, vinegar, salt and pepper on a white roll - Delis Near Me - Edison, New Jersey

You cannot order Doordash from this store. They mess up the order every single time. You have to be standing there watching. I just paid $54 and got a single sub. I didn't get the platter I also ordered. And, my sub is made wrong. Once again. I asked for lettuce, onions, vinegar, and hot peppers. I said to put the vinegar and hot peppers on the side, and to put a ton of onions, more than even the lettuce. I cannot eat a whole sub from this place in one day. I can barely eat 1/4. So I do NOT want the vinegar put onto the bread, because it will get very soggy. So what do I get? I get a sub with the bread drenched in vinegar, the salt and pepper on the bread, and NO ONIONS. Not a SINGLE string of onion. I don't know why the orders would be wrong all the time, since the instructions are in writing. Another thing is, I prefer to have the cheese put on last, because it then helps to hold down the onions (if you get any) and the lettuce. Instead, they put it down right on top of the tuna, so instead of the condiments being pressed down into the tuna, the cheese makes it slippery and the lettuce and onions slide off the sandwich. The cheese could be acting like a wrapper to the veggies and instead they put it first, like a barrier to the mushy tuna. Also, the vinegar should go ON THE TUNA, not the bread. The cheese could act like a barrier against the bread getting all soggy. I'm very angry right now so I'm complaining, but I will say the tuna is awesome, the bread is usually fresh, the line moves fast, I love the pickles, and the potato salad is good and fresh. Also they rarely answer the phone. It's always unavailable. read more

I consider making a sandwich a type of art form. For me, all the components have to come together. Since I am not big on sandwiches and subs, it's very hard to please me. From the bread, meats, toppings and dressings, if something is off, I will open up the sandwich and try to fix it. If I really don't like it, I make my husband finish it for me and I would go make myself a bologna sandwich instead. The long lines here are constantly present but it moves fast. Parking is tiny and it's hard to get in and out of the lot. Have patience. A second location is in Franklin Park, less busy and just as good. The first sub I ordered here was the roast beef. Upon first bite, I remember widening my eyes, letting out a Mmmmm and slapping the table hard. Finally!! Someone who can make a dang good sub. I couldn't wait to take my second bite. Since then, I have tried the tuna fish, ham and Italian sub. I recommend them all. My son who is also not big on subs, loved it. It has just the right amount of fresh meat, toppings and the dressing wasn't overpowering with vinegar like most other sandwiches. The meats are sliced to order, the bread is nice and soft. You can ask for hot peppers on the side if you want. When President Obama was in office, he did a tour of successful small businesses around the U.S. Tastee Sub Shop was one of his stops. He said that he enjoyed his sandwich very much. If it's good for him, it's good enough for me. read more

I've been coming here since 2007 and cannot even describe how good these sandwiches are. I mean, if it's good enough for Obama am I right?! Anyway, freshly sliced deli cheese and meats and amazing bread to accompany it, nuff said. There's usually a line but it's worth the wait! Can't beat a huge sub for less than $10. Just go. You won't regret it! read more

Place was epic once upon a time. It's still good. Generally fresh. Solid on all fronts.

Amazing local sun shop for that just right deli sub you look for in Jersey! They even have a picture up front with Obama visiting. The place does get busy around lunch time. Loved the turkey sub with their hot peppers. The Italian sub is also very "tastee." A go to if you're in the Edison area and wanting a great deli sub! read more

We're in New Jersey again. Back to my favorite sub shop to buy sandwiches for a family gathering (lunchtime). I found out today that Whole Wheat Bread was available for an additional 40 cents- a good deal since Tastee's subs are substantial (pun intended). We also requested and received extra containers of Onions, Vinegar and Chili Sauce so that family members can customize their Tastee subs. We fed 6 people with 3 subs (half a sub was leftover). Service was fast, friendly and efficient. read more

Still a popular place... This sub shop has been around since 1963. Stopped in for takeout, of course. The place is pretty small allowing only 7 or 8 customers to social distance at a time. Prices are dirt cheap. For her a 8 inch turkey sub on white for less than 5 bucks. My sandwich is a very popular # 5 Super sub (16 inch) with ham, salami,cappacola,proscuttini with the works. Whole wheat bread was still fresh and is 45 cents extra. 5% off if you pay cash. My only drawback is both are a little light on the meat. Total was about 18 bucks. Believe they have two other locations in Jersey. That being Franklin Park and Lawrenceville , all opening in 63. read more

They have the best sub sandwiches that I've ever had in Jersey. This is strictly takeout but they are fast and precise in making your order. It's set up like a deli and if you pay cash they'll give you a discount. read more

It's not a foot-long Subway's sub. It's like Subway's cousin who's been hitting the gym with a hot girlfriend. Mine was about 18"? It's so long that they know to cut it into fours. The cousin's personality though is down-to-earth and he's still that slightly older cousin who used to teach you how to play videogames. The taste is a classic deli-style sandwich with a spicy kick if you decide to add in the red pepper sauce / banana peppers. All in all, a great sandwich shop if you're looking for something big, clean (not greasy if you get the cold cut combo) and hoping to have enough left over for that night's dinner or tmrrw's lunch. I got the Tuna and Buffalo Chicken. I recommend both but the Buffalo chicken was especially great. read more

I hate leaving low stars for reviews but what happend to this place? The last THREE times ive ordered the roast beef its been gray and super chewy. I literally had to pull the meat off cause it wasn't even edible. I keep saying it must of been an off day and ill try again, two times, Until now. read more

Lets just say they call themselves Tastee Sub for a reason! Everything is fresh. Blimpie and Subway is in no league here. This place has the best sub in NJ. They are a small shop and there are some tables. The place is busy especially weekends and on NFL, NBA game day. There is a parking lot but it does get busy at times. Next time I'm in town, I'm stopping by again. read more

Tastee Sub Shop - Order to go and can't wait to dig in! - Delis Near Me - Edison, New Jersey

What can be said that hasn't already been said about this NJ mainstay? Hands down the BEST sub shop I've ever been to in the entire country. I've been to 43 of the 50 states and have tried subs in almost every one of them. Mostly out of a craving that just couldn't be satisfied. Tastee Subs delivers the quintessential ESSENCE of what a true Jersey Sub should be. The type of sub that stores across the country, and a certain chain I won't even mention, try to recreate but just miss the mark every time. Tastee brings me back to my childhood growing up in Edison in the 70's and 80's, when there were a few spots that made subs just like this. Sadly those places are all gone, all except for Tastee which has stood the test of time and still delivers the same amazing product! Often imitated but never duplicated, Tastee will always be the #1 spot for Jersey subs! read more

This is Tastee Subs, this is what all other New Jersey subs shops(and major sub chains) strive to be. Since 1963, Tastee has been making good subs for the central Jersey crowd and they do it well. So well, that President Obama made it one of his stops when he was campaigning years ago. They obviously are doing everything right. I have been going since I was little, so I can't really tell you how many of their sandwiches I have had over the years. But nothing has changed since the beginning. Except they added wheat bread within the past five to six years. If you go during lunch, be prepared to wait. Tastee is small and lines snake outside the building. There are literally around six tables inside, so most people tend to grab and go. I have had most of the menu but I tend to go for the Italian meats and usually add either smoked or honey turkey to it. Ordering is simple, you step up to the person slicing meats and tell them your order then step to the right for your veggies and dressing. Lettuce, tomato, onions, oil & vinegar, oregano and of course hot pepper relish. Add chips and a drink and you are on your way to the best sub you've ever had, or will have. Being that I live in Texas, I get one rarely now and it ends up on the airplane with me. They are accommodating to that. They will put the oil, vinegar and pepper relish in plastic containers and put a piece of wax paper between the top bun and meat and wrap it in foil. So I thank them for that little extra. Just go, from wherever in the country you Yelpers are from, but go and get a Tastee sub at least once in your life. You won't ever forget it. read more

Purchased a #2 sub, the sandwich was huge and delicious. Only sub place I frequent, fast service too! read more

This seems to be a great local sub-shop which touts that Obama has been there. It offers very limited variety but what they do offer is delicious my friends and I all got different subs but they were all good and very reasonable! If you need a quick bite that will fill you up for the whole day on the cheap this is you spot! read more

I've been here a few times and if you want a straight forward old school sandwich spot, this is your place. No frills, right to the point, nothing fancy but filling sandwiches. From the minimal set up and decor, what you see is what you get, and I personally appreciate that. They're generous with their slicing and their rolls are pretty fresh. No complaints on any of my trips and would recommend them to others for a nice old school sub. read more

Fell off...I think they changed their turkey...haven't been in a minute but don't taste like it used to! Tighten up!!!

Great hidden gem in town. They have perfected the classic subs. They don't have a plethora of add-ons. They kept it simple which in my opinion is their speciality. Lettuce, tomato, onions, oil, vinegar, and hot peppers. No toasting. I got the cheese sub which came with 3 different type of cheeses and had all the add-ons added. The Italian bread was fresh and really soft. You really can't go wrong with Tastee. A must try if in the area. PS don't be surprised if there is a line and you have to wait awhile. read more

My family have been loyal customers of Tastee Sub - been going there for a few years now. They're known for the taste but also its respectable quantity relative to its price. However, we ordered today and were in absolute shock. They've gotten STINGY, and only put ONE or TWO slices of meat within the subs (ordered the #1 and #5) - it's RIDICULOUS. Incredibly disappointed - don't know if we'll be ordering from here again. read more

3.5 stars This place looks like it's been here for years. I got some sort of sub roll for my lunch. Layers of processed meat and cheese in a wheat roll. It made the day in the office more bearable. I never did go back, but that's because I wanted to explore some of the other eateries nearby. My other reviews will cover most of them...mainly Indian and Asian. read more

I used to rave about the sandwiches at Tastee bit the past few times I've gone to get my usual salami ham and cheese, the portions on the sandwich were much smaller and more importantly I'm really not quite sure what kind of ham they used but it was not what I was accustomed to getting. It was fatty and had an odd flavor. Certainly not a high grade ham. Entire sandwich was disappointing. I will try them again though. read more

Super fresh wiches and super fast. Better have your order ready as they are fast. Have it with vinegar and salt pepper oregano

Solid 4.5 for this place. Love the subs here! Just the right amount of meat packed inside; not skimpy like some other places. You can order a 6" or 12". They do offer hot sandwiches in addition to cold cuts. Bread is fresh and will soak up all that oil and vinegar (if that's your thing, because that's definitely my thing). Just your usual lettuce, tomato, onions, cheese to put inside; nothing fancy. Wish they had banana peppers though. Cash or card (but they offer 10% off if you pay cash) Private parking lot (just slow down so you don't miss the entrance on the busy road). Great spot! Highly recommend. read more

Quite simply the best subs around. The bread is right, the amount of cold cuts is right, the hot pepper "mush" is perfect and the discount for cash is perfectly funny. And Obama ate there, LOL. But really I go out of my way to get a sub here. Our favorite is the super sub It's under $10 and includes 2 kinds of ham salami prosciutto Cappacola Pepperoni and Provolone. read more

They had been doing better with paying attention to order notes lately. Simple notes like oil and vinegar and hot pepper relish on the side, but they have failed yet again on my Uber eats order and not having o&v and the tasty hot pepper relish make the experience and taste incomplete. So-so experience this time Tastee! read more

Used to absolutely love this place, big meat filled subs with fresh toppings. This time around I asked for extra meat, was charged extra, and you'll see the pic below. I can only imagine the lack of protein without extra meat. Seems they've become stingy :( not sure I'll be as loyal of a customer. read more

The popularity of this place makes me laugh. I'm from North Jersey so I know a good sub when I eat one and Tastee certainly makes a good sub, but its nothing more then a blimpie sandwich with more meat. They carry no frills cuts and cheap drinks. I guest the hype around this place is due to the lack of good competition in this area. What ever it is its working. I wish them continued success. read more
