This was my hubby's favorite spot in town to get an egg salad sandwich. He said this location (and…read moreonly this location!) made it fresh every day and did it right! When teen and I were nearby we decided to pay homage to Dad and go in and have lunch. Of course I got the egg salad sandwich and teen ordered an Animal Sub. I remember Mark always asked them to toast the bread twice, so I did the same. The sandwich comes out on warm toasty bread, and is overflowing with egg salad. Truly - get a fork! You'll need one. Add a dollop of salt & pepper and that's all you need for a yummy sandwich. I can only eat half of their 6", so it's nice to have another half to eat later or the next day for lunch. Teen's sub was hot and she said it was fantastic. Staff is pleasant and quick to respond if you have a need.

This is a larger restaurant with a good bit of indoor seating. The menu is large; loaded with hot and cold subs, hot dogs, soups and more. I got the Italian and really enjoyed it. The sub was hearty-- loaded with meat and veggies. The staff was great. The service was quick! There was a bit of a line and I was in and out without 10 minutes!

This is one of those places that we love but haven't been to in far too long. We both tried things that were new to each of us tonight as well, which was cool. I ordered The Ole Smokie, with everything on it and choose cheddar cheese. My first thought when it was brought to the table was "oh, I'll probably have to go at this with a fork & knife" but I decided to give it a shot as intended. I'm glad I did because the bread held up surprisingly well! As far as ingredients go, the brisket was good and smokey. There was a good mix of everything else and more than enough cheddar. My wife ordered the Chicken Cheesesteak. She also had a choice of cheese and she picked whizz. The thing that separates this from what people might expect is that it's chunks of chicken, not shredded chicken. She said that's not a bad thing at all, just a change from what some might exoect. She thought it was a welcome change. She liked their cheese whizz a lot and liked the roll as always, so she was glad she tried it. It's worth noting that both sandwiches were big enough that we both took half of each home. I didn't get the name of the two people that were working there this evening, but I'd still like to give then a shout out. They were both incredibly patient with the customers ahead of us and they didn't make us feel rushed even though we were there fairly close to the time they close on Friday evenings. Another good visit to Clarke Bros. Here's hoping it doesn't take us so long to get back here again for the next visit!

Huge portions and the best Cuban in Jax!…read more Blue Boy Sandwich in Jacksonville has the best Cuban sandwich I've found in the city, and I've been looking. What we got: Cuban Sandwich: Everything you want in a Cuban is here. The bread is pressed and toasty with a nice crunch on the outside and soft on the inside, and the layers of roasted pork, ham, Swiss, and pickles are perfectly balanced. Every bite is savory, tangy, and satisfying. Fried Oreos: Soooo good! And the portion is HUGE. I'm not exaggerating when I say you get your money's worth. It's generously stacked, filling, and easily one of the biggest sandwiches I've had. Come hungry, or plan on saving half for later (though you probably won't want to). The quality matches the size, too. Nothing feels skimped on or thrown together. It tastes like a sandwich made by people who know what a Cuban should be. If you're in Jacksonville and craving a real Cuban, this is your spot. I'll definitely be back to try the rest of the menu. Tip: Go hungry, because the sandwich is bigger than it looks!

Some restaurants survive for decades because of nostalgia. Others survive because they continue…read moremaking food worth coming back for. Blue Boy Sandwich Shop has been doing both since 1962. I stopped by for lunch after being invited to try their Cuban sandwich, a fitting challenge for a shop that has built its reputation on oversized portions and doing things the old fashioned way. The bread is baked in house, the mojo marinade is made from scratch, and that attention to detail shows up in every bite. Calling this sandwich "large" doesn't quite capture it. It's enormous. Thick enough to make you question your strategy before the first bite, and easily enough food for two, maybe even four lighter eaters. Inside the soft house-made bread is a generous stack of mojo marinated pulled pork, thick slices of ham, Swiss cheese, pickles, and mustard. It's substantial without feeling sloppy, every ingredient has a purpose. The timing of this visit couldn't have been better. I had just returned from two weeks in Miami, where Cuban sandwiches and Medianoches were part of my regular diet. Those flavors were still fresh in my memory. Blue Boy isn't trying to recreate Little Havana. This isn't served on traditional crusty Cuban bread, and that's perfectly fine. This is Jacksonville's interpretation, a Duval Cuban that respects the original while confidently doing its own thing. The pork is juicy and packed with citrus and garlic from the mojo. The ham adds saltiness, the Swiss melts into every layer, and the mustard and pickles provide the sharp, tangy contrast that every great Cuban needs. It checks every box while carving out its own identity. Some sandwiches are lunch. This one is lunch, dinner, and maybe tomorrow's snack if you somehow manage not to finish it all. Blue Boy proves that honoring tradition doesn't always mean copying it. Sometimes the best local classics are the ones that confidently become their own tradition.

I love Jersey Mikes and just on taste alone will always be a loyal customer…read more This location is new but it needs help. I don't think I've come in once where they haven't been super short staffed and most of the team seems newer and confused. They do always handle the crowd and the pace with friendliness but you can tell the employees are sometimes tense with one another and it doesn't seem like they're set up for success. The restaurant is always clean, and I do feel like they have good people working here, I'm just hoping they can get their staffing issues and training figured our so this Jersey Mikes can be here for a long time!

I ordered the Seafood Platter. It took only a few minutes since it was raining. The food was good. I tried ever without sauce first. Seafood potato salad was really good. That didn't last long. The crab cake was deep fried and nice a brown. Before I knew it, it was gone. The larger shrimp and fish were good. Food over is 5 stars. But then comes the customer service. I used the drive-thru with you give your order to come under the patio cover. Cash only does make it hard for people to pay who aren't familiar with Nesbit. Once I received the change back, it was almost like it was throw at me. The server did apologize so I didn't take offense to it. Wish they asked you if you needed something else like Ketchup, Hot Sauce or Mustard. I shouldn't have to stop at Popeyes to pick up sauces for the food on the go.

A Philly cheesesteak, fries, drink, and boiled peanuts were included with the tour. The cheesesteaks have a little extra in the mayo. The crinkle fries had seasoning salt which is always a win. You cannot find canned peach sodas everywhere, but they have them! I tried the Cajun boiled peanuts which were tasty. I did not like boiled peanuts when I tried them years ago. The food was prepared in a timely manner, and both gentlemen working were friendly. There really isn't anywhere to sot to eat, but this would be a nice addition. There is a mural on the outside of the store which was painted by FSCJ students. I'm going to stop by for breakfast the next time as this is my favorite meal, and hopefully the grit bowls are what I imagine them to be!

Very nice staff, and it seems very popular, there were a lot of people dining in. People were leaving as I was entering and coming in after I left. I ordered the Steak Pita (no tomatoes,) it comes with mayo, lettuce, tomatoes, banana peppers, American cheese, and steak. I wanted to change the cheese, because I don't care for American cheese on my steak lol, but I went ahead a kept it the way it came. My coworker ordered a hot dog (they gave several options for toppings.) Her hot dog look as if it were grilled, she said it was awesome! I began to eat my lunch, my pita was very tasty! I was "chowing down" (hadn't eaten all day) when unfortunately, I found a stand of hair in my food. No biggie, it happens (it was so good, I wanted to keep eating!) I immediately called the restaurant, they were so apologetic, and more than happy to remake my food. Not only did they remake my food, they brought it to my job for me!!! Yes, they brought it to my job!!! They are awesome people, great customer service, and my food was great both times!!! Try them out you won't regret it.

I wish we had more of these old school, No Frills sandwich shops where I live in Orlando periods the sandwich shops we do have here are usually priced significantly higher I do not offer what's the many is the basic sandwiches that a place like this should offer. So since I am in Jacksonville regularly on business, when lunch time rolls around, I will often seek out one of these sandwich shops. As I said, the menu is filled with old time favorite sandwiches and the prices are definitely more than competitive. There is absolutely nothing fancy or trendy about this place, but this is a perfect place for someone to come in and grab a meal and be on your way in a hurry and not take too hard of a hit on your wallet. I would definitely recommend Stan's Sandwich Shop if you are looking for a simple meal at a good price point.

He showed me stacks of real cheese AFTER his wife laid a slice of processed cheese food on my egg on the griddle, scooped it up, with sausage, and placed between white toast. I tried to explain what they'd served me, hoping they might remake my order; or, at least prevent another customer having the same experience. I received a blank stare.
