When you walk into Yellow Sub you aren’t just walking into a sandwich shop, you’re walking into an experience. If you want to support a small business, which would actually be cool of you since tahoe has morphed into a genterrific silicon-summerhome hellscape, this is one of the places you should hit up.Immediately upon entering the warp zone here and finding yourself in the doors of yellow sub, you’re greeted by chill employees.These guys are the greatest, as a sufferer of stage four picky eating, the employees are never judgmental when I ask for my usual sorry excuse for a sandwich, even though it’s sometimes a crime on sandwich building. Salem, one of the employees drew an excalibur (character) on my sandwich wrap because they know I like soul eater. (pictured below) That’s how you know these sandwiches are made with love.It goes without saying the sandwiches are honestly just good as hell. Every time I get something different I’m never disappointed. Unlike port of sub where I can’t even get a brownie without keeling over from subway levels of ‘freshness.’ I mean I don’t even like sandwiches that much tbh but I got put onto this place and the people need to hear this.There’s also just a lot of drink options which I dig. They straight up have more yerba matte flavors than the raleys does which really just says more about the raleys but I digress.Overall fun atmosphere with employees that are chill as hell. I ❤️ YELLOW SUB.

Not a fan. Across the street from a Port of Subs and the sandwich I had wasn't even as good as one of theirs. Not friendly, very slow, and the whole set up is kinda dirty looking. And they close at 4??

Great food and service! Sandwiches were delicious and worth the price. Couldn’t even finish a 6 inch they were so filling. Will definitely return!

My family and I were visiting North Lake Tahoe for the New Year’s Holiday, and planned to take a day off skiing so that we could do a full “Lake Loop” around the entirety of the beautiful Lake Tahoe. Before we set out, I hunted for top-rated sandwiches shops on the South Lake Tahoe side, as the timing would be perfect for lunch.I ID’d Yellow Submarine as our destination, and without a doubt - it fully delivered! I had the Yellow Sub signture sandwich, add “Hots” - a slightly sweet and slightly spicy condiment. AMAZING. My wife had the Turkey Avocado and it was to die for. My son had a custom roast beef and cheese and was in heaven. The best part was that since the sandwiches were so big and plentiful, we each had a small portion to take with us To-Go, which we promptly consumed at our next stop along the Lake Loop journey.Thanks to Evan and the Yellow Sub crew - pls open a location down by us (Encinitas) soon!!

Cool little place that has been in service for over 40 years. We shared a large sub and it was almost too much still. Great fresh ingredients and the staff was super friendly. Stop in and get a sub if you are in the area, you won’t regret it!Vegetarian options: It’s a sub shop so you can make your own, but the veggie sub is amazing.

A family run business that will exceed your expectations for the level of flavour, freshness and the crunch of the bread. Its the best sub we’ve had! It’s gets busy during lunch, but they are quick!

Excellent HERO.The Housemade Lemonade, also deliciousPlace has a cute cafe vibe, clean and in order.Staff super helpful and friendly.Photo is a half of the 6 inch Italian without lettuce

After waiting forever, The sandwich had enormous amounts of ingredients, it was too dry to eat. I suggest if you all are going to succeed you better learn how to please your customers.

Service is great food is exceptional coming from a food critic the only down side is the price it’s not pocket friendly but if a half sandwich will fill you up the splitting the tab with a friend is a good idea $19 for whole sandwich is a bit steep but this is a tourist town and also inflation has grabbed us all by the throat its just in my opinion expensive for a local but man is it good there are only two good places to get a great sandwich in Tahoe and this is number 1
100% the best sub I've ever had!!!
