20 Best Sandwich Shops in Irvine

“The soup, the salad, the sandwich, and John along with all the service team!!“

“I love the cool clean freshness of modern architecture and light the restaurant provides; with a decided touch of old ranch atmosphere; you can be left alone to yourself, or join in community. The food is varied, always fresh, healthy, creative modern nouvelle cuisine along with more traditional dishes, the ingredients definitely high quality -California Sunshine. If you really wish to muse, meditate, read, or silently work, the place is surrounded by little nooks and crannies in the midst of nature. You can even lull yourself to a nap, abandoning all care for a few precious minutes. Or else you can sit outside in community, perhaps choosing a more intimate table conversational setting on certain days, resolving the woes or the theories our world is constructed on. All together a complete experience🙏 Thank you.“

“We are locals, and sometimes even walk over with the dog to sit outside and enjoy the outdoor tables, and the delicious sandwiches. They do a great job and always offer great service!“

“The environment was just so welcoming and beautiful. The inside had an atmosphere that was so fun and nicely decorated. The service was amazing all the employees were really helpful and made sure to make me feel important. This place is great for people who enjoy healthy options that still taste delicious! Everyone can find something they like here. 100% recommend!“

“I genuinely recommend the First Sandwich. We ordered from here multiple times, and they never disappointed us. The food is fresh and tastes amazing. I love the avocado walnut salad; it’s very refreshing. The sandwich is flavorful. The clam chowder bowl is creamy and well balanced. They gave us so much food with reasonable price. The owner is always so kind and attentive. Highly recommend!“

“This is my favorite sandwich shop! Out of all the amazing menu options, my current favorite has to be the turkey pesto sandwich it’s so good! I’ve seen a lot of people ordering it too, so I guess it’s pretty popular. Everything else on the menu is delicious as well. They also have plenty of drinks, chips, and even cookies and smoothies, so it’s a great spot to visit with kids. Plus, they always play classical music, which makes the place feel super cozy and relaxing!“

“Love the Monster! Turkey, ham, roast beef, swiss and avocado! yum!“

“Amazing sandwiches! Quick and delicious!“

“Need a quick bite simple and tasty, this is your place. I ordered the cowboy I believe that’s the name but it was so good !! It was a great recommendation. The atmosphere was cool the music was good. Seems like a busy little place but I’ll definitely go back .“

“I work on Sky Park Circle and have tried most of the spots around.

Food: The sandwiches are tasty and beautifully prepared. I haven't tried the full menu - but the quality of ingredients seems good and the salad is fresh & crunchy. I've attached a picture to highlight the presentation.

Service: The small team are always polite and professional.

Atmosphere: The atmosphere is a little unusual. No music and normally quiet so it can be a little awkward on arrival first visit. The artwork is quietly really cool. Vintage super-wide film photographs of trains with completely flat perspective on the walls which you might not even notice on first glance. It's one of those places where its simplicity grows on you. But some areas would benefit from an update - the seating, the drinks fountain, the acoustics and the music situation.

The prices are high. But as is everywhere on Sky Park Circle.“

“This subway is right next to my work and I come here consistently. The ladies who work there are extremely sweet, and friendly with their customers, im always so happy to see them because i know every interaction i have with them is a good one. I order the same sandwich every time and I’ve never had any issues with them. I would recommend customers to come here to this Subway at the Mobil Gas station and the gas station workers are extremely sweet too. I only have positive things to say about these workers. I believe one of the subway employees who is always greeting me is Belen, and she is AMAZING. Honestly 10 out of 10 customer service, she is an outstanding worker!“

“​I cannot recommend Philly’s enough! We recently visited with a large group, and from the moment we walked through the door, we were treated with a level of hospitality that is rare to find. The food was absolutely delicious—every dish was fresh, flavorful, and served hot—but the stellar service is what really set this experience apart.
​I want to give a special shout-out to Raul and Rodrigo. They went above and beyond to provide us with truly special service that made our entire afternoon. They took incredible care of our class of adult special needs students, showing immense patience, respect, and kindness. They didn't just take our orders; they made sure every single student felt comfortable and valued, attending to our group's specific needs with a genuine smile.
​It can be challenging to find a venue that handles a larger, diverse group with such grace, but Raul and Rodrigo made it look easy. They were attentive without being intrusive and made sure every detail was perfect. This kind of inclusive, top-tier service deserves to be recognized. We are so grateful for the wonderful memories and the fantastic meal. We will definitely be returning soon!“

“I just had a Super Sub on the new Rosemary Parmesan bread. It was the best Italian sub I've had in a long time! The man who served me very patiently explained what prosciuttini and cappacuolo are (and told me about an off-menu sandwich with both of them that I might try next time). He prepared it Mike's Way, as any Italian sub should be. When I told him it was my first time patronizing a Jersey Mike's, he even threw in a free cookie :-) The quality of every component from the bread to the toppings was apparent when I bit in. I'll definitely be going back since it's just down the street from my home.“

“I came here to try their sandwiches because I saw the great reviews online and thought it wojld be so good. I also saw so.many ppl say how good Reynolds was on Instagram so I came by today. Thr owners were so kind and sweet. I got iced hazelnut latte which was delicious. I also ordered a sausage breakfast burrito , chicken Caesar wrap with ranch, and turkey cheese panini sandwich which were all so good and huge. The portions were generous and the inside of the restaurant’ was clean and aesthetic as well. Def coming back to try their other ham and burritos.“

“Service can be a bit slow at times due to how small the Subway is. Staff usually gets orders correct and are quick to apologize when they make mistakes. Today however they decided to toast my sandwich without me asking them to and quickly ushered me a long pay without me being able to correct them. The sandwich was still good but I would have preferred it not toasted.“

“I absolutely love this Subway restaurant. Being open 24 hours is a huge plus for me, and the staff is always friendly and attentive. Every visit leaves me satisfied. Although there have been a few instances when the food quality wasn’t ideal, my overall experiences have been overwhelmingly positive. I would definitely return without hesitation.“

“I like this Jersey Mike's. I miss your really great manager Ashley. The thing that concerns me is the Shore Point system. Your place doesn't honor specials from corporate. JULY is double point month. Yesterday we bought a giant I was told I had to make internet contact to solve the shore point issue. Not good!!! It is not resolved.“

“Bummer, no Togo's near me (Fountain Valley...hint hint 😉), so I drove way out to grab a ton of huge sandwiches for the fam. Lasted two meals!

They're seriously unlike other places. Amazing bread, meats, and cheeses. The meat is thicker than the bread – unheard of these days!

Best sandwiches ever, and the best customer service too (IMO).“

“I really love Flippoly sandwiches. The egg sandwich style from last time was delicious, but the new Korean street food style sandwich with cabbage is even better. It's crunchier, has a great texture, and feels healthier, so I could eat it every day. My kids say they could eat rosé tteokbokki and noodles every day too?.
Personally, I highly recommend the kimchi fried rice and green grape juice!??“

“The cookies are so fabulous! Everyone that works there remembers me and they always greet me with a smile and a warm hello.“
