Awesome sandwich!! This is our usual go to place for a quick lunch. The owner is real nice to all the customers

Great lunch time food. The bread is always so good!! Note: There are two locations! read more

This place has always been good until now. They skimped on the meat. Never was the case. I'll try again to see if this was just a one time incident. I would have complained but this was a to go order. read more

The bread is what makes this sandwich stand out from others. It's almost like a thinner pretzel bread but a little crispier outside (without being crunchy). Easy to order, pretty quick to get our food and it came out prepared just the way we requested. I wouldn't mind a few additional menu items to choose from, but maybe that would slow them down and they don't want to mess with that. I'd recommend this spot for an easy lunch any time. read more

Zero's Sandwich Shop - Zeros - Sandwiches Near Me - Houston, Texas

This is a unique spot, but you'll feel like you're home! The lady at the counter will call you babe, and you will feel all the love when she does. The sandwiches are huge (even the smalls!) and yummy!! We got ours to eat there. It's a tight fit in the restaurant, but everyone just goes with the flow. The restrooms felt just about as big as the rest of the place! That was a surprise!! If you're staying, meeting, or working near Discovery Green, Zero's is a short walk. Definitely stop in! read more

Great Service and Friendly staff. I'm a first timer so I'm excited. Heard good things.

Delicious sandwiches with perfect bread and very nice service. Will definitely be coming back again for more sandwiches.

They have the best sandwiches on fresh made bread. The cookies are awesome. The customer service is so friendly.

I love the mom and pop shop on Lamar street - they are so nice and attentive I always get a small sandwich and it's hugh I love the bread, soft and fresh The sandwiches are so good and very filling read more

Run and get a sandwich as fast as you can! I'm in town for a conference and started walking having no idea where to go to eat. This was the find of the trip! Homemade bread that is to die for! They loaded the sandwich with toppings (the pics don't do it justice). I got a small sandwich and couldn't finish it all. The workers (maybe owners) were all super friendly too! read more

not good! never going to this joint ever again. inconsistent pricing, not in sync with the internet prices. I enquire about the size and I got a terrible sandwich, stale bread, insufficient meat and a generally cold, bad sandwich read more

No bells and whistles at this very small hole in the wall sandwich shop, just great service and great sandwiches. Had the Italian and it was great. The bread is a bit different, I think it's a Cuban style, thin but very good. Highly recommend Zero's. read more

20 years ago I used to work downtown and I just happen to be there this past week and decided to try zeros which I fondly remember as having an incredible sandwich called the zero very much like a muffaletta when I tried it. I was so impressed and it took me back to when I used to work downtown. Still a mom and Pop type restaurant that serves homemade sandwiches on their homemade bread, very delicious and next time I'm downtown I definitely will go back to zeros again. read more

My sandwich was Excellent and the people running the shop were very kind. They opened a few minutes before 11am.

Zero's Sandwich Shop - Sandwiches Near Me - Houston, Texas

I never got the full story when he was alive, but my dad had a serious grudge with the Zero's on Dallas when he was alive and working downtown. I have no idea what it was and it was before Jeremy S. gave yelp unto the world so there are no internet keepsakes of what would have surely been a blistering one star review for the ages, the likes of which I pen these days when I am calling the hits on dem boys whilst listening to 2pac for mood and inspirational quotes. Whatever happened, he would walk (instead of a hop/skip/jump to the Zero's on Dallas from his office) all the heckin way to the Spec's on Smith in Midtown for their deli and back because fuck those guys I imagined him saying. The one on Dallas is the only one that the owner ever ran so I imagine there were words. But as Southie trash, I imagine there were many four letter words too because how else can you tell a guy to properly frig off? Some stories just get instantly lost when someone unexpectedly dies on the other side of the world. Keep in mind this is some years ago. I tried the one on Dallas when he wasn't looking as one of my first yelps, somehow my 2009 review of that one has been lost to the ages, in the time before smartphones and being able to add photos and whatever else keeps my other 1,500ish reviews live these days. After my dad died the only other times I have even thought of Zero's has been on walking past the Beacon eyesore on Prairie on the way to my stories (beers) at the Conservatory, where pigeons and homeless fight for scraps of what is a clearly "chucked away" Zero's special in the gutter. You can tell by the bread consistency in whatever sun scorched day old mush remains. Subway yoga mat bread is so trash not even the pigeons will fuck with that. Quiznos bread these days after the bankruptcy reorg is so on the money you can eyeball that rosemary parm from a thousand yards because the few eagles we have in Houston will come screaming down 50+ stories to snatch that rosemary parm up out of your hands if you do not know Richard Wayne Gary Wayne /karate/ to defend the princess. But then, coupon magic hit and I am here for that because coupons are a godsend to make me try new places that I literally would cross the street to avoid in prior years. $3 sandwich? On a day that is being rough, in a week that is being rough? Send this unto me, spray that mayo all over my mouth holes. This location on Lamar is in a parking garage so you can really dim your lights on what you should expect. It is a classic Brooklyn, under the radar, no frills, no fuckin' tourists allowed type of joint which occupies the same neighbourhood as your Xochi and other high priced joints that really want the tourists all up in her. It is a tiny footprint of a store you enter from Lamar. The tables and floors are not glistening. The guy manning the deli booth is sitting in the back, relaxing, not even manning the deli booth as far as "grasping reach" goes. He looks like the brilliant and criminally-underappreciated comedian Eddie Pepitone but sports fans, he isn't. But still, he tries to be, which really adds to the charm. Most of the charm of this place comes not from it being in a downtown parking garage and being slightly dirty, but from the guy who is like really an absolute unit of an Eddie Pepitone replica. He has the same look, build, humour, whatever. Only thing is he didn't talk about his "eating shirt" so I know that he is not the one I have had interactions with, because I too have an eating shirt, but I am not a vegan as Eddie is so my eating shirt could take his in the alley and make something of it, as things happen back in dimly lit Brooklyn alleys. If you were not raised in a barn, you eventually say thank you for when the guy hands you the lunchmeat sammich you are about to destroy. Normal people are like u r welcome bro, stay quite sexy. This guy, fully Eddie Pepitone, is like (shouting) NO, THANK YOU. So then you need to decide if you just got out-Nova Scotianed, or what. What to heck, buddy. The actual Zero's special this joint puts out is an absolute unit of a lunchmeat sammich. It is large, it is in charge, and there several colours and flavours to experience for an authentic lunch. So what is it? An enticing blend of ham, salami, mozzarella cheese, lettuce, black olives, tomatoes, onions, and mayonnaise captured in homemade bread. Meaty, cheesy, greeny, mayo-ey, take me now. It really is an enticing blend of the important lunchmeats, a spot of cheese, and slimy/slippery toppings to seal the bread down to the meat as the good lord below intended for lunchmeat sammich construction principles, just the same as Brothers Taco House tamps down their breakfast tacos with the beans that vacuum seal everything well and good. Make the innards stay in place, unlike a Chipotle. This is not gourmand dining and this is in a parking garage, not even one of the nicer garages, so there are no tourists around and this is all quite sexy. read more

I love Zero's going back to their days in on Aldine Bender and Greenspoint. It's the bread. But be aware, if you order from DoorDash, you won't get the same sandwich. You get a small hoagie instead that isn't close to filling as the Original typically is. It was still ok but I was disappointed. read more

Delicious, friendly and family run business. Please Support small business, amazing wont regret it.

Zero's is just a small, mom & pop sandwich shop at the bottom of a parking garage on Lamar. I was actually looking for a different sandwich place and was walking by Zero's, decided to head in based on the other yelp reviews. I ordered a small roast beef sandwich (it came with Swiss cheese, lettuce, onion, tomato and olives) and a soda. This was a way better sandwich than I was expecting, I think the bread made a huge difference! Prices were low and the "small" was a pretty good size, I was completely full afterwards. read more

Zero's is absolutely nothing fancy--it seems like a family run local spot. It's a good place for a simple sandwich. My turkey sandwich came out nice and hot--I hear their bread is made fresh--but I'll note that my sandwich came out wrong, though I was able to pick off the items I didn't like. And the cookie was just OK. read more

It's a lovely hole in-the wall with delicious food at a decent price. I'm going to be coming here again!

Little hole in the wall mom and pop sandwich shop, which you know means it's gonna be good. First time there and got the Zero Sandwich with everything on it. The bread is fantastic and the sandwich reminded me of a better version of a Schlotzsky's original. Will definitely be going back here for more read more

This place is f*cking phenomenal. I mean, the moment you walk in the door you're greeted with kindness and people who want nothing more than to make your day. The bread is baked fresh every day and it's the best bread i've had in years. The sandwich itself was hands down the best sandwich i've ever had in my life. I'm visiting from Detroit and I'm mad that I don't have Zero's in my city. Y'all should consider yourselves lucky. The warm environment of this "classic" little sandwich shop is top tier. The people are a godsend. The food is unbeatable. Ten out of ten. read more

Zero's Sandwich Shop - Cajun Turkey and Pepperjack - Sandwiches Near Me - Houston, Texas

This small non-descript shop, has some decent specials. $6.95 for a sandwich, bag of chips and medium soda. Why not throw these guys my money, instead of McDonalds. I ordered the BLT, (without Cheese..since it's listed that way) and it came out properly, and promptly. The bread on these is somewhere in between ciabatta bread, and a pannini. Fluffy, airy, and toasted. It looks like a mini space ship sitting it it's small basket, but surely hefy enough to make a very nice lunch. The woman working the register spoke perfect English, and the person who served my food also seem friendly. The counter person also directed me to the Cash machine across the street, when I asked her if she knew where I might find one, saving me blocks of walking to main street. I like this place, and would recommended it as a quick spot for lunch. read more

I don't understand all the poor reviews for this place. I came in for a quick lunch, and it was a great experience. I love the bread they serve the sandwich on. It really gives the sandwich a great texture and feel. Anyway, $7 for the sandwich, chips, and a drink. Great lunchtime deal. Got my food quickly, and I was served by the nicest lady. I'm definitely coming back. Try their namesake - the Zero's! read more

Summary: Waited 40+ minutes and never got my order Today (Wednesday, 04-17-2013), I walked over to Zero's for a quick sandwich. I got there at 11:15 am, well before the normal lunch rush, and ordered a small Zero sandwich. I then sat down and waited. And waited. And waited. And waited. At 11:30 am, the lunch crowd hit and the place filled up. Orders started to come out, but not mine. I twice went to the counter and was told "your's is next." And so, I waited some more. After 40 minutes of waiting and watching people who had ordered their food 20 minutes after me get their food, I left. I will not be back. read more

Its nice that they are across the street from my building. I went in very late in the afternoon - so late in fact that they were already sweeping up and getting ready to close. The staff stopped and made me a delicious roast beef sandwich. Being so close to the tunnels I have tried a lot of sandwiches from a lot of different places. They have their own unique signature and are worth trying out. They are nice people and the quality of the food was good. I would recommend them. read more

I've experienced Zeros on two consecutive days this week. It is around the block from my new job. First visit the young woman who took my order could not confidently tell me the ingredients in their signature namesake sandwich. How big is the regular size I ask. She separates her two index fingers to demonstrate. I thought she was making a lewd gesture relating to my shortcomings. Is it 6"? 5"? Do you want me to ask says she unenthusiastically. No, I tell her just give me a large tuna. A zeros sandwich turns out to be a lot like a torta, except the bread is not as thick. And it is toasted. The tuna was not bad, except it is made with sweet relish. Not my style. The next day I had the Zero-- a torta with cheap pork deli meats and cheese, with the same sweet relish, again toasted. It sucked. And like Greg F, I had to wait ten minutes for my order to be filled. read more

Had the large zero. Best sandwich I've had in a long time. I've worked downtown for 2 years and always passed this place up. The restaurant is really small and grungy looking. Don't let that keep you from trying it. Reminds me of some places in NYC. read more

For those of you in a hurry I'm surprised you didn't think of CALLING IN YOUR ORDER. Duuuh. ;p Anyway, I think the sandwiches are really good and the prices are only slightly more expensive than Subway. Good variety, too. I've never eaten inside, but yeah the decor is lacking and I don't think I ever want to. The guy (who owns the place, maybe?) is very nice and laid back. He's usually the one who takes my order (over the phone). The only time I had a problem was when I requested pepperjack cheese in place of something else. Couldn't taste it at all. Otherwise, good service and delicious sandwiches! read more

Good sandwiches. Can't resist their olive tapenade, just add some jalepenos on a turkey & roast beef. They have a po' boy special w/ chips and drink for $5 that's pretty popular. Expect that you might have a wait, cause they can get busy at lunch time. But they are worth it. read more
