My recent experience at JC's Sandwich Shop left much to be desired. Despite the typically good quality of their food, poor customer service leaves the worst taste in your mouth.The inability to reach anyone by phone, even when calling 30 minutes before closing time doesn’t make sense. Disheartened, I decided to drive over, only to find the doors locked a good 10 minutes before the posted closing hours. It's frustrating when a business fails to adhere to its own schedule.While the food at JC's Sandwich Shop is usually enjoyable, the lackluster service and questionable business practices certainly detract from the overall experience. It's my hope that they address these issues promptly, as they're tarnishing what could otherwise be a stellar dining establishment.

I ordered the JC's special which is a HUGE Cuban sandwich, chips and a 32 oz drink. You can't beat it for $12.95. I loved how quick they were in getting my order to me. The only reason I am giving it four stars is because when I get a pressed Cuban, I like my meat to be hot. The meat on my sandwich was still cold, which is most likely because 1. There was a lunch rush and they got me my sandwich pretty quickly, 2. The sandwich is HUGE so it would take awhile for the meat to get warm/hot as well. Otherwise, the flavor was there, the service was fast and friendly, and the ambience in the restaurant was great. It was very clean and not messy by any means. I will definitely be returning! Thank you, J C's!

Love the breakfast food! Good food and fast service!
OMG! Thank you lottery. This place is tucked in next to the lottery office and man is the breakfast food here is the bomb. I had the bacon egg and cheese sandwich with home fries. Food came out hot and fresh. Please give this place this place a try.

I just had the shrimp poboy Cuban sandwich, it was terrible. The sandwich was dry, the shrimp had an after taste as if it were fried in old oil. The shredded lettuce did not complement the sandwich, the tomato that was supposed to be there was nonexistent. Never again!

First time visiting today, employees seemed a bit annoyed as if they did not want to be there. Not one smile or a welcome. I ordered a ham & cheese sandwich, it was okay. I thought this place was going to be this out of this world experience like some reviews made it seem like, it wasn’t. I will be going back to try the food again and will change my review if anything changes.

Great place, family owned and operated. Every item is excellent, we order from them every Tuesday for our office. Excellent chicken parm, cuban, stuffed potato and crab stuffed. Amazing.
