Camille B.

I've been coming here for years and I am always satisfied. The owner and people who work here are amazing. They're friendly and have never made me a bad sandwich. The other day one of them was cracking jokes with me and I'm SO used dealing with emotional robots at most places that I didn't know how to respond. I hope I didn't offend him for my delayed laugh lol. But yeah, the food is always amazing. Took a friend here who used to live in NYC (so you know how high his sandwich standards are) and he was very impressed with the sandwich we had and told me this was the best sandwich in all of abq! I agree with him. Keep up the great work guys!

Blue Bell Ice Cream

Want a different kind of sandwich? Here ya go. Yup there's plenty of Beatles memorabilia. What would you expect with a name like this? Besides a simple sandwich menu you don't have to settle for chips. We had the waffle fries. For sandwiches I had the meatballs - tasty with a flavorful sauce. The wife had Steak & Grilled Onions - nice flavor, tender meat filling & the onions tasted sweet. They carried Blue Bell Ice Cream - our favorite. Just right for a scoop, a shake or something rarely seen anymore a malt. None for us today. The sandwiches filled us up. Talked with the manager about the 6' sandwich in the case. He showed a video of the making of 2 - 10' subs. Each was made on a single roll made from their oven capable of making 10' long buns - impressive.

Hankering for some great submarine sandwiches? Look no further than right here in central New Mexico. The Yeller Sub Restaurant has been pleasing customers for 46 years - that makes the restaurant older than most everyone who works there, but not quite as old as Jim Tritten's mustache. Great food. Speedy service. And great ambiance - lots of interesting things on display, including a tribute to fallen military personnel. And yes, you get a very nice veterans' discount if you ask. Highly recommended. Just watch us enjoying ourselves by clicking on the following YouTube video link. https://youtu.be/sgYXkIjzfoo?si=GJSqXNzJ2DDvchRN

Homemade chips, nice & hot.

We now live in El Paso, Tx and when we are in town, we have to go to Yeller Sub. They Taylor Sandwiches to your order & they are amazing. Chips come out hot. Made on the spot.

Hot On-Deck Torpedo with grilled onions and mushrooms
Trenton B.

Best subs in Albuquerque! The subs are flavorful and the bread is very soft. They pack a ton of meat in there! The owners were both there working and they're so nice. They keep the restaurant very clean. It has an old-school diner charm to it. Highly highly recommend!

Pastrami 7", homemade fries, mocha almond fudge malt.
Robert S.

First time here and.....The fresh homemade fries are crispy and warm. The pastrami sandwich was tasty and the milkshake was perfect! I held the door open for the manager/owner and he rewarded me with a nice discount. I was not expecting that at all. I'm just disappointed that I didn't come here sooner. I'll be back.

Bacon torpedo and criss cross fries
Ashley E.

Super friendly and fast service. The food was delish. We had two different torpedo sandwiches and the criss cross fries which were like beer battered waffle fries and were to die for! I'm shocked I didn't try this place sooner. Absolutely better than any of the chain sandwich places. I will be back!!

On Deck and chips!
Anthony E.

I have been eating here over 20 years. The food is always great. They're always hustling in there to get the food out. They get pretty busy. Place fills up quickly.

Super Yeller Torpedo
Robert C.

This place is ok. The sandwich I got was pretty good but not spectacular. It does have a cool inside and they have an ice cream station. It was good enough that I will go back and try again

You know, when a deli that serves sandwiches has a line clear outside the door by 11:15 AM, there…read moreis probably a good reason. That is why we always arrive by 10:30. Seriously, Tully's is a great place to get lunch, pick up ready-made meals to take home, indulge in sweets, or listen to opera (did he just say opera?). Yes, opera with real Italian dinners ... stay tuned to their social media for the dates. We love coming here for all of the above. Great food, counter service, and sufficient tchotchkes to keep you entertained. Our highest possible recommendation. Come on down; we promise you'll like it. P.S. Try the Joe DiMaggio - it's terrific, and we're comin' back. Click the YouTube link below to see what we ate. https://youtu.be/4LotIHxltYo?si=e7Pz1JCTQ8iOpZQK

I've been going here for almost 40 years - not sure what it's going to take to get it through my…read morehead that Tully's just isn't to my taste. Over the years I keep going back, about once a year: I've had their sandwiches, their pastries, their pies . . . all kinda "meh" and all priced pretty reasonably but not inexpensively. Sandwiches give you a lot of everything . . . except flavor. Pastries are . . . fine. Pies are . . . fine, and kinda small (and not inexpensive, maybe reaching towards pricey); it's the kinda thing you are willing to pay for in order to bring it to a gathering, only to find almost no one bothers to eat it. And so you don't bother. The cookies are pretty good, actually. (And, yes, I know Italian delis - my Italian grandparents brought me to them in New York when I was a child. However, I'm not judging Tully's against these (as in "it's not as good as Back East"), I'm just saying it never really turns my crank.) Today I had a hot chicken, cheese,onion and pepper sandwich, the Carmela. It was a lot of food. But . . . not a lot of flavor. A whole lot of drippy mess in the bottom of my basket, though: water absolutely sopped through the (completely unmemorable tasting) bread loaf and pooled at the bottom of my basket as I ate in. The potato salad served alongside was fine - like what you'd get at Albertson's. The chicken was tender and . . . essentially without flavor, not even salt. There had clearly been a little marinade (I could sense some oregano and maybe garlic in there) but man could this thing have used about five times as much seasoning and then a healthy dose of a vinegar/garlic/oregano dressing on top of it. Bland. Lots of food in that $17 (almost $25 with tip) sandwich, but not a lot of enjoyment. I've had other Tully's sandwiches (both for here and to-go) that were better, but I can't really recall any of them . . . and I _never_ rush back. Like I said, this is a place I think about ("Hey, I'm right nearby; I should try Tully's again!") about once a year . . . and then, meh. To be fair - I believe that I am pretty out in left field on this take: Tully's is popular and always hopping. Get here early unless you want to stand in line. I only had to wait about three minutes to order, but by the time I left at noon this Friday there was a line to order all the way from the counter to the door. In terms of the room, it's a deli. Reasonably well set out with a decent amount of seating set out well, as well as some outside seating that you might want to try when it's not in the nineties. You order at the counter, pay, go get your own fountain drink (they also have some beer and wine, which they will serve you), find a seat and they'll bring it to you. When you're done, you bus it yourself. Pleasant staff - I don't regret tipping, although they don't do much. (As others have mentioned, if you get a cup of water, Tully's generously gives you a decent sized Solo cup - another plus.) It's fine. If you go, at least get yourself some cookies - they're pretty good.

We decided to try this place today after I saw on social media that they had started carrying…read moregluten-free bread. I was excited to give it a try since gluten-free options can sometimes be difficult to find in Albuquerque. When we arrived, they weren't too busy. I looked over the menu and narrowed my choices down to The Kind sandwich or the Not'Chos with chicken. I explained to the person taking our order that I have a gluten allergy and asked about the ingredients in both items, as well as what precautions they take when preparing gluten-free sandwiches. Unfortunately, he really didn't have a clue. He had no idea about any thing I was asking. He did say everything is prepared in the same area and that the sandwiches all go into the same oven/toaster together. I was really disappointed to hear this. It's frustrating, simply offering gluten-free bread doesn't make an item safe for people who medically need to avoid gluten. The employee taking our order had no idea what cross-contamination precautions meant when I asked about them. After asking several questions, I decided that the Not'Chos seemed like my safest option. I was told they are placed in the oven on their own paper, so although I was still hesitant, I decided to give them a try. Unfortunately, I became sick shortly after eating them. My husband and daughter enjoyed their food, so I can't speak negatively about the food in general. However, based on my experience, I definitely would not recommend this place to anyone with celiac disease, a gluten allergy, or anyone who needs to strictly avoid gluten. I really hope they consider providing better employee training and putting proper cross-contact precautions in place, since they are advertising gluten-free options.
