    Beef Cheesesteak
    Diana C.

    The sandwiches here were so good! They are also huge. The service is fine and they're pretty speedy with getting orders together but sometimes it can be hard to hear your number since it's a little noisy. Would definitely go back for the eggplant parm again! They have 2 veggie sandwiches but no vegan items.

    Delicious Italian submarine sandwich. Filled with great deli meats and spicy sauce...the other key factor was a wonderful roll the sandwich was built on. Perfect location right by Pioneer Square and just a few blocks away from King Station... they also have an amazing menu with a few cold options and several hot sandwich options. For Seahawk or Mariners fans it is close to both stadiums...please visit them soon!!! TATSDELI.COM

    I changed my mind. The food is very good. It seems to have improved in some way. I probably just dont like the chicken philly or the dry chicken deli sandwich. This was my fourth time visiting. The portion was huge. They pile it with meat. It was decently priced. I paid $22 after tax. For a small business, I thought it was reasonable for the size. The staff is very nice as well

    Italian Sandwhich

    Visiting in from out of town, I challenged my friend to take me to the best local sandwhich in Seattle. He did not choose wrong. The place is small with limited seating but it adds to the frenetic charm. It smells amazing inside, the sandwhiches are huge, and everyone eating just seemed to be in heaven. He grabbed the tatstrami and loved it. I went the Italian with extra pickles. The spicy peppers were amazing. My mouth was so happy. Def recommend adding some oil and vinegar but my God was this a bomb sub

    Tats makes you feel like you're right back in a sandwich joint in Philly. It's got a major east cost sandwich vibe, which is great. The workers are all very nice, but the Philly cheesesteak... man is it good... I love a good cheesesteak, and Tat's has very easily earned itself a spot on my Mount Rushmore of cheesesteaks. The steak is steak ribbons in stead of chopped I, which I much prefer. The bread holds its form, mostly, the wiz is nice and warm and they give you plenty of it. In a city where east coast style sandwich shops are harder to come by, tat's is the perfect spot for any hoagie, and chief among them, the Cheesesteak.

    Roast pork 12 inch

    2.8/5 I haven't been in years so decided to pop in to see how things are. Ambiance - not much to say, typical sandwich shop. Bunch of seating. Service - service was top notch, the woman who took my order had a huge smile and helped make suggestions on what to try. Food - I tried the roast pork sandwich, with a side of old bay fries and a soda. Total came to $30, so it is a pricier lunch. I have to say after spending $30, I was a little let down. The fries were great, they held their crisp and had a ton of free sauces for dipping. The sandwich itself, although it was very hearty and LOOKED amazing, lacked flavor which was shocking to me. The meat didn't taste seasoned, but it was tender. Sauteed spinach wasn't giving off much flavor either. I thought my tastes were off but I gave a few bites to my fiance and she said the same thing. Would still like to try some of their other options, I would just pass on the roast pork.

    Ordered online with no problem, service was quick for pick up. Meat portions are generous, the bread is fresh and the subs were delicious. Got the Italian Roast Pork and Hot turkey sub.

    Meeting up in downtown Seattle with friends traveling from Australia...and needed a place for lunch. Walked to Tat's as it's the only place I know in dt Seattle and little time to research other options. We ordered the traditional...Philly cheesesteak...beef, fried onions and whiz...yes cheese-whiz. Food came out pretty quick and happy that we were able to secure booth seating. The taste was great...but I did find it a wee bit salty. We all came away very full and satisfied. It was another positive Tat's experience.

    Philly Beef Cheesesteak added hot peppers, onions, mushrooms and cheez wiz!

    Best beef philly cheesesteak I've ever had here in Seattle (I've never been to Philly so not sure how the OG tastes). Service is fast, they mean business so know what you want. Luckily, they have many signs to help you order your food. Everything was fresh and hot. The place was very busy which is a great indicator of a good place to eat. Plenty of seats for dine in or you can order online and take it to go. They also have tvs to watch sports (they are Philadelphia establishment). I really enjoyed my sandwich to which I added peppers, mushrooms and don't forget the cheez whiz! I hope to come by more often!

    Turkey Tatsrami Sandwich
    Tracie E.

    This was not my first time here but my first time since the pandemic when you could pull up in the alley and they brought your order to your car. I ordered a lunch pick up on a Thursday for noon and prayed to find parking, which I did right around the corner. Whew they were busy as usual, packed with no seating and a line - lunch rush! Turkey tatstrami is my go to order, slaw is always a banger and they pack their subs with meat! It did not disappoint and my pictures don't do my sandwich justice but trust me, if you have a chance they are worth it!

    Quite frankly this place was a religious experience. From the moment I walked in my nose was blessed with the beautiful smells of meat, cheese, bread, and wonderful spices coming together in a beautiful marriage. The woman at the counter was incredibly kind and helpful in assisting me with the menu. The service was quick and I received three of the most gorgeous 8 inch sandwiches I have ever laid my young eyes on. When I took my first bite a feeling shot through my soul that I can only describe as true enlightenment. I can still taste my wonderful sandwich as I'm typing this out and I insist you reading this to get up and go get a sandwich from Tat's it will change your life

You order at the window on North side of the shop and pickup at the window on the South side of the shop. There used to be limited indoor seating but that is no more. There are, however, a couple of outdoor picnic tables which is better than nothing. Definitely a take out place. I had the original with Cheese Wiz. They double wrap the sandwich in foil and butcher paper and if you include the paper bag it comes in, you have a triple wrapped mound of yumminess! The steak is chopped finely and the Wiz is oozing all over the sandwich. They cook it to order so it is piping hot when you open it and it smells wonderful. The bun surrounds the contents pretty well but as with this type of sandwich it can get messy quickly. Definitely use caution. Always a crowd here and everyone looks happy with anticipation of the arrival of their coveted cheesesteak (especially me!). Give this place a try and you won't be sorry.

Every bite was super cheesy and meaty. It was absolutely delicious. I could only eat half of it and save the other half for the next day. Honestly, it tasted better when you toast it in the air fryer to get that crispy bun. Otherwise the buns were soggy. Highly recommend trying this place!

The sandwich was great. Hot, fresh, flavorful (quite spicy - but I like it), moist, and large - about enough for 2 people. Packed with meat, cheese. onions, and peppers. I'd order here often if I lived in Seattle. The zucchini fries however were not good, especially for $12. Very bready, the slices of zucchini were too skinny, and portion size was kind of small. It was only good because it was hot and fried. But the zucchini itself had a strange flavor..kind of fishy? I would not recommend these, maybe just stick to fries but everything else was good. Sandwich - 5/5 Zucchini Fries - 2/5 I ordered online, which was fairly simple, and you pick up from a side door of the building to the kitchen in the parking lot (left side), you do not have to go inside.

There is an old ad campaign for an infamous fast food chain that featured celebrities biting into their burgers and having the sauce drip onto them. Tat's sandwiches make you feel like you're actually in one of those commercials, loving every moment as the sauce drizzles down your chin. The bread on both sandwiches is perfect. Toothsome with a cornmeal dusting but moist and gentle against the sandwich fillings. The pastrami is fragrant and tender, and its amped up by its accompaniment of crisp cabbage slaw.

Pro tip: if you happen to have a bag of French onion Sun chips lying around, eat them with the pastrami. It's symphonic. It's worth mentioning that their staff is super friendly and helpful, too!
