An Artesia Classic! Everyone has their go-to sandwich. These days, I go for the hoagie w/ BBQ sauce. Congrats on 50 years! To another 50. read more

I'm honestly stunned this place is rated above 3 stars. Looking at pictures in the reviews makes me feel like the bar for a "good" sub is super low. I felt like a sandwich so my partner and I came here because I wanted to support a local business and skip Jersey Mike's. Unfortunately, I wish I had just gone there. Ordered an avocado and bacon submarine. It was ready quickly, which was nice. The sandwich itself was very sad. The bread was the wonder-bread version of a submarine baguette. There were a few sad strips of bacon that had clearly been sitting a while. It was very light on all the ingredients and didn't have much flavor. I won't be back. The only reason I gave it two stars instead of one is because it was easy to access, quick, and the avocado on the sandwich was a decent amount. read more

My mom is a regular at this shop and we've all enjoyed their sandwiches, but today she was greeted with hostility and unprofessionalism. She ordered a sandwich and mistook the avocado inside as fungus. My mom went back just to ask if it was - not demanding a refund. Immediately the woman at the counter started yelling at her in Korean, touching the sandwich and the inside of it with her bare hands. My mom just wanted to know and had no desire to ruin the business. My mom asked if they could remake it since the lady at the counter touched it with her bare hands, but she refused and continued to yell at her. My mom was embarrassed and just took the sandwich and left. The man behind the counter was trying to defuse the situation and apologized, but the way the lady responded was extremely unprofessional. Unfortunately, they lost a regular customer. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Standard fare, clean indoors, no a/c though.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Manned by one older lady, she was quiet and took our order then quietly prepared them. We did take out and she very kindly boxed them up for convenient handling. I got a hot pastrami / came with mustard and pickles (I was craving more meat). The hot meatball sub also is topped with melted cheese. I prefer a heartier bread - these sandwiches could not stand up to the sauces. Would do in a rush, also accepts Venmo or Zelle, it was cash only the day we came. read more

Tj's Submarines gives you exactly what you're looking for in a sub! The chewy, soft bread and fresh ingredients make these sandwiches perfect.

This is IT!!!! I have found it!!! A shop just like my mama's shop in Cypress (Subs N Grub). Local friends, please visit. I know it's not in Cypress but it'll be worth your while! Before you read my review, you should know this about me: 1. I'm a southern Californian born in Taiwan. 2. I've lived in north Orange County all my life minus the four years I spent in UT for college. 3. I love to eat, and refuse to eat anything I don't think taste good. REFUSE. 4. I don't mind spending money to eat well. 5. My parents owned two sandwich shops while I was growing up. I worked there as a kid, through college and beyond, so I'm a big fan of mom and pop shops. If you need a snapshot: Service - 4/5 - prompt, on it, though she forgot a few things ;) Food Quality - 5/5 Selection - 4/5 Pricing - 5/5 Parking (ease, available) - 5/5 I have seen this place several times when I would visit the 99 Ranch Market if I'm driving down Artesia instead of another street and wondered if it's any good. Telling my husband, he became interested. We tried it the day after Christmas in 2025. We had four sandwiches (yes, we're piggies): - polish sausage: mustard and pickles, came with melted mozz cheese on top - turkey avocado: I asked for the vinegar oil dressing on top - pastrami: mustard and pickles, and I asked for onions on top - turkey bacon avocado: everything was so good, we decided to get a fourth...lol What is so GREAT about this place is the woman behind the counter. She is warm and friendly and you can tell, humble. The bread is from Glasso's (because any sandwich shop that doesn't use Glasso's will never be great), produce and meats are fresh and the bacon is crispy and not greasy. In other words, JUST LIKE MY MOM'S!!!! I cannot believe how good everything was. No Philly Cheese by Juline, kids. So sorry. But only my mom did that well any way. I will DEFINITElY be going back again!!!! read more

My favorite local sandwich shop. Been coming here for years. Family owned. Owners are very nice and always welcoming. I always get the same sandwich because that's how good it is. I never want anything else. I order their turkey bacon sandwich with everything on it add mustard. I love how they crumble their bacon. Bacon in every bite. I do miss their chicken soup. I hope they bring it back. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Small shop. Tables available inside. Always clean. Quiet.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommend! read more

Clean and cozy mom and pop sub sandwich shop. I love the old school feeling of this place. The proprietor a older gentleman and I believe his wife. What I like it's not a subway or Jimmy John's type so patients waiting for your order. These kind of establishments are key to the community. So the subs come in 6 in or 10 inch the menu board is old school so ask what come in your sandwich. These are made to order so it makes it great. They have a vegetarian sandwich that's cool ! Nice looking sandwich and first bite. Mmmm I like it it is good very good well made taste fresh better then the the chain shops. I had the pastrami no mustard don't judge lol pickles and a dash of mayo. My wife got Mestball sub. She has only had subway and made her own. The sub is good marinara sauce is good out does subway. Cleanliness = 8 Quality = 8 Taste = 9 Customer service = 8 Packaging = 8 Overall = 9 I would come back read more

When you're craving an old-school style hoagie and a real sub sandwich spot, it seems like the usual suspects of mass produced, average sub sandwich shops exist too frequently. Luckily, places like TJ's still exist and are the reason why you should absolutely support non-chain and local businesses. I stumbled across this sub shop while looking and craving for a sandwich spot. Thanks to Yelp I was able to discover it as I regularly visit from out of town. These sandwiches always hit the spot and are made with love. Personally, my favorite is the club sandwich and the cool thing is any of the subs can be made as salads. They have a nice variety of sandwiches as well as chips to pair with your subs. There is plenty of indoor dining and is a fantastic spot for lunch. From every visit I notice there is a steady stream of regulars for lunch and that's fantastic to see. I love finding local spots like this. You can also order ahead if you're on a time crunch, but they do a great job of making your subs in a timely manner whether it's for to go or dining in. Definitely would strongly recommend! read more

I have been going to TJ's for years usually when I go to my bank. I'm always happy to go there because the workers are friendly and cheerful. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I like eating inside the restaurant because it's always clean and there's newspaper front from World War II on the walls[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], I always get the TJ special and it's fresh and delicious. The selection of meat is perfect, the roll is soft, and the spice level is great for me. I can't review the other sandwiches on the menu because I always just get that one because it's the right one for me. read more

My favorite sub spot. Truly the best all around! I've been going here for years. They always have fresh ingredients. I'm always happy with the service and the food. The owners are also very kind and have great customer service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The environment is clean, organized, and has a cool aesthetic with vintage newspapers on the walls.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Thank you for existing, TJ's! read more

I tried their sandwich today and it was just meh. Not worth the price, plus they charge $.75 to use the credit card. That is against the law in Ca to charge more than 3 percent for using the credit card. read more

I really liked this place back in the mid seventies when the original owner worked there. That guy knew how to build a great tasting sandwich. I always saw high school classmates there. Now it's just not the same anymore. The flavors are muted. The same pictures are still on the walls and it looks the same but maybe it's just me missing the old days. Times have changed I guess. read more

I had to try this place today because I was craving an Italian deli sandwich but I won't visit again the sub was so dry I asked for extra mayo but in all honesty the sub made me sick I feel like throwing up. I'm not sure if the Turkey was bad the avacado or all of it. I do not recommend this place. read more

I had high hopes for this place because of all the promising reviews, but I'm kind of still hungry. For the price, I expected more. There wasn't much meat in both sandwiches. The amount in the pastrami was particularly disappointing. There was just a lot of mayonnaise in the turkey avocado and mustard in the pastrami. If I came back I would definitely get a large. A small is 6 inches and a large is 10 inches. The decor inside is really random, but service is friendly. There is a $0.75 charge for credit card so bring cash. read more

A good sandwich shop in the artesia area! They have a pretty good menu of sandwiches! I opt for the pastrami with mustard.. Good soft bread and a good amount of meat inside.

Tj's Submarines - Avocado Turkey Sub - Sandwiches Near Me - Artesia, California

Still fresh and delicious. They still wrap the sandwhiches in plastic which is an epic and vital step in sandwhich making. As simple as it sounds, it preserves The freshness. Corporate sandwhich spots rarely wrap in plastic that I've seen. Ordered a veggie sub ( large) and a large hoagie also, both with avocado and sprouts. The bread here is always fresh and soft also, and yummy every single time and was again tonight; ingredients were fresh and vibrant and freshly crunchy just like I craved. Confirmed tonight that When I crave a sandwhich I literally crave TJ's. it's been a while mainly because I'm in the area less, but came here tonight and they did not disappoint. if your idea of a sandwhich is fresh ingredients and simple bliss they are still highly recommended. read more

I'm no simpleton. My taste buds are learned for sure. As learned as they are, they recognize taste when it hits them. As a meat lover...The Veggie sandwich is ! Pro tip: ask for turkey breast in it, and you just got yourself a sandwich that can put Italian genovas to shame! The veggies complement the meat well, and the bread is amazing. It looks like a lot of carbs, but it's a perfect balance when you take each bite. I love seeing small businesses kill it like this. Clean workspace, clean seating, ran by a mom n pop Don't believe me? Go try it read more

Small mom & pop shop- honestly, 5 stars because it's quick service, to the point, priced just right, and pretty good. Only negative is the shops a little run down, but it's a mom and pop shop- so can't expect too much. read more

Coworkers wanted to eat here and I let them talk me into it. Maybe I came on an off day before? I tried the BBC (Beef & Bacon & Cheese) and it was really good. I think I asked for extra mayo which helped with the ratio to moisture issue I had before. BIG sandwich. I may have to try another sandwich to see where it really lands. Coworkers did say their sandwiches were on the dry side, so you may just want to get some extra sauce or whatever as a rule. Idk... time will tell. read more

I've been wanting to part ways with franchise sandwich places for a while now, so searched through Yelp recently. I'm so happy I found this sub sandwich shop! The owner is super nice, and the place looks tidy. Today was my first time, and I ordered a large tuna sandwich - it was fresh and delicious. I like how she made the tuna mix spread. It's very flavorful. I can't wait to come back and try their other options. I may ask her to beef up the fillings a bit though, as I'm not much of a "bread person." Highly recommended. Thank you! read more
