“This is the best Jersey Mike’s in the entire state of California!! As soon as we walk in everyone is just beaming, smiling from ear to ear, everyone behind the counter was just lovely to talk to. Additionally, there were so accommodating to my wife who has celiac. They were so cheerful, and happy to accommodate her dietary needs. And it didn’t make the situation feel like a burden or a hassle at all. The food was delicious, served and ready to go out the door really fast. Everyone in this restaurant needs a raise upon a raise. Appreciate everyone in this restaurant!”

“Reliable sandwich/wrap/toast spot. The servings are big, ingredients taste fresh, and flavors are balanced. Nothing special, but every neighborhood needs a spot like this! Seating is tight inside but probably could fit 10-15, and there is more seating outside. Feels kind of lame that they charge a few cents more for a wheat tortilla.”

• Take-Out

“This Subway deserves far more credit than it gets. I’ve stopped by multiple evenings (yes, even close to closing) and the staff have always been kind and incredibly accommodating. They’re patient, respectful, and communicate clearly, even when dealing with customers who walk in frazzled or LAST MINUTE. The female worker, in particular, is always gracious. She takes time with your order, listens carefully, and makes sure everything is prepared exactly how you want it. She even remembers returning customers which is more than you can say about most fast-food chains these days. People love to complain about hours, but honestly? I’d rather staff stay on schedule than deal with someone demanding service five minutes before shutdown. Boundaries matter and this team clearly values a clean, well-organized closing routine. That’s professionalism, not laziness. If you want efficiency, kindness, and sandwiches made with actual care, come to this location.”

“I had an amazing experience at this subway! Two ladies (I don't know their name) they provided outstanding service from the moment I walked. They made my sandwich the exact way I wanted. They employees greeted every customer with a a smile during lunch rush. It's clear the team took pride in their work. I will definitely be coming back and highly recommend this subway. Great food and great service.”

Everything from the products they offer, to the service during ordering, to them bringing the sandwiches to our table, was a great experience. The sandwiches were top notch, filled with meat, and will leave you with a happy belly. The extra products they have for sale, like the small batch ravioli from local vendors, the trading card game packs, and the variety of beverages gives everyone an option of something they might want while they're here.

“What a classic sandwich shop! I ordered the sleeper on Dutch crunch! It was huge and I see why it’s called the sleeper! I took half home and ate half there, the lady was kind to warm half of it, but I think it might be better cold. Plenty of seating inside and I was surprised the have a hot grill section as well! For a sandwich less than $20 this spot is definitely a deal! I’ll be back to try some of the hot grill selection next 💯”

“10/10 Vietnamese coffee. I don’t think I’ve ever posted an “after” picture of something I ate or drank, but after that first sip, I just kept drinking and completely forgot to take another photo. I got mine with oat milk, which made it extra creamy without being too heavy. The caffeine level was perfect for me too. I got the boost I wanted without feeling wired or jittery afterward. Service was quick, and I really appreciated that the cashier personally brought our drinks over to where we were sitting. Such a great little community find. Definitely coming back for this coffee.”

Everything we ordered was delicious, and you can really tell they use quality ingredients. The atmosphere was welcoming and had a great vibe, and the customer service was incredibly friendly and attentive. Special shoutout to Jalen, who checked in on our satisfaction and went above and beyond by letting us try their cookies — such a thoughtful touch that made our visit even more memorable. My only small suggestion would be to clean the tables a bit more regularly during busy times, but overall it was a wonderful experience and I’ll definitely be back!”

“Subway San Carlos served me an excellent Spicy Italian made just the way I like it. Mine came on Italian Herb and Cheese bread that was perfectly toasted. Drink on the side was a Dr Pepper, and it was also perfect. Atmosphere is pretty standard for an older location that has not been updated in many years. The tables , food counter prep area, floors and windows are clean and neat Parking in front and back. The one strike against Subway in San Of Carlos was the bathroom. It was obviously not cleaned well for at least a few days. No hook to hang a jacket. Sink drain empties VERY SLOWLY. And when I visited I first had to clear the plugged up toilet and give it a light cleaning before I could use it. Would never had sent kids in there alone because of the lack of upkeep. Close to the San Carlos Transit Center for easy SamTrans and CalTrain access. Except for the restroom, I count this Subway visit in San Carlos California as a win. You may want to stop by yoursellf for some well prepared Subway food too.”

They had a 6 inch special where you get a 6 inch sandwich, bag of chips and a soda for only $6.99. I got the chicken teriyaki special that bad boy was fire. 🔥🔥🔥 If you’re in the area check out this subway. The customer service is amazing and the sandwich was the bomb.
