“Great place for your favorite sub, mines the Italian for sure! Get yourself in here, you don't know what your missing. I've been coming here for over 35 years, it's a must stop for me , when I come in for a Cubs game from Rockford.

“I had a bad experience with a different Jersey Mike's with customer service, liking the sandwich I went to this location. Everything was excellent. This will be my new store. Connor and his crew were great.“

“I dine in this nice place many times a year! This is my favorite spot to pass a nice evening. I go to this spot at least once a month. The meals are fantastic, the staff is friendly and the prices are affordable. I enjoy being in this restaurant for a nice dinner.“

“This place is a gem. Family-run business. Friendly, personable service. The place is very well-maintained. The layout of the store is very appealing, and the fact of a 24-hour Subway inside a gas station/mini-mart on a busy corner in a hotel zone with neighborhoods nearby makes the place indispensable. Nice selection of basic phone cords and chargers, along with other expected items. The locals I saw coming and going seemed to appreciate it as well. I wish these folks the very best. 5 stars all around…“

“They Philly cheese steaks, so good very good Customer Service they fix your food The way you want to fix . I am a very particular either. I don’t eat at any restaurants. My son told me about them say they fool are so good so I took a chance tonight to try their Philly cheesesteaks when I tell you it was good. It was really good. I would recommend anybody to try their Philly cheesesteaks. I get them 10+10 stars“

“Afeera was very helpful and patient, it’s my first time at Charleys and first time in Illinois and I was happily surprised to see a cheesesteak place inside of a Walmart instead of McDonalds, Charley’s was on my radar coming here and being able to get an old school was definitely a good afternoon meal, thank you 🤙🏼“

“Great cheesesteak. A nice change from the usual gyro, hotdog, or burger and open late for another option besides Portillos in the area. Definitely worth trying if you’re in the mood for a change like I was!! Would only recommend takeout though…inside is nice but the whole place smells like diesel fuel because of the fuel tanks under ground in the gas station lots surrounding Charley’s….only disappointing take away. I’d get a headache eating inside for sure.

Parking: Only a few spots so take out is a better option.“

“Great experience, delicious food , appetizers and desserts. I like the decor in old style . It’s very convenient location , just a few steps from the CTA blue line. German beer is great and a lot of cocktails to choose from. Our Polish waiter Krzys ( Chris ) was very nice and patient . Thank you“

“I’ve been eager to try Mortadeli since it first opened, and after hearing so many rave reviews, I finally had the chance to stop by for lunch yesterday. Let me tell you, everything everyone says about this place is spot on! First off, the food is absolutely delicious. Everything on the menu is so tempting, it was hard to choose, but I went with the meatball sub and pasta salad. As someone whose grandmother made the best meatball sandwiches, my expectations were high – but Mortadeli’s version did not disappoint! It was fantastic. The pasta salad was also amazing, fresh, and perfectly seasoned. The atmosphere at Mortadeli is incredibly inviting – it strikes the perfect balance between classy and cozy. The staff are very friendly, and you can tell they genuinely care about making your experience special. The service was top-notch, with attentive staff and quick delivery of our food. One of the owners even took the time to chat with us a bit. Another pleasant surprise was the parking – I had my doubts at first, but we found a spot just around the corner with no problem at all. Overall, the experience was fantastic, and I’ll definitely be back. Mortadeli is a must-visit!“

“One of my wife and I’s favorite spots. If you’re in the area, this is a must.“

“I work for ALDI corporate, and we've had Rammys cater our team building event in Elk Grove for three years now. Their subs are AMAZING, they are a breeze to work with and so friendly. My group loves the subs, the bread is fresh and don't get me started on the turtle brownies. On a personal note, the tuna sub is superb. Im very picky about tuna salad and I loved every bite. Run, do not walk, to Rammys.“

“I ordered the regular Philly cheesesteak combo with a peach lemonade. Everything was delicious. The restaurant is clean and atmosphere peaceful.

Cheesesteak: Tasty. Sufficient amount of food for the price. I would order again. Now, keep in mind, I am not reviewing its authenticity but taste. There are varying schools of thought on what ingredients should be included on a Philly cheesesteak.

Fries: Fresh and delicious. They literally make perfect fries. I got mine salt-free. Yum.

Lemonade: simply delicious. I usually skip the beverage when ordering a take-out meal. After reading the reviews, I decided to give it a try. So glad I did. I don’t care for much sugar and this one was just sublime.

I highly recommend trying this Charley’s. This was my first time and I will certainly be back!“

“Staff has changed over the years and they aren't their strongest right now. Call in orders should be simple but the cashier was very spacey and didn't want to charge me for what all I ordered thank God for the older cooks that kept telling her what I ordered!! And for a pick up it took awhile to just pick it up. Won't be going for a while“

“Sam runs an amazing place! Super friendly, and the subs are PHENOMENAL!“

“We were at a neighboring business and decided to try this out. What a stroke of luck? This place is great! The menu is divided into 5 sections. Cold Deli, Off the Grill, Create your own Dagwood, Veggie, and Wraps / Salads. I got the grilled Classic Italian on multi grain bread . The bread was substantial to hold up to the meat, but not dry. The sandwich overall was on the messy side, so be ready with some napkins. My brother got the Philly Cheese Steak, we are not from the east coast, so cannot validate the authenticity of the Philly portion of the name but he said it was a darn good sandwich and they did not skimp on the meat. My husband got the cold Ham & Swiss, but the staff offered to serve it hot. We also tried cheese bread with tomato sauce. This was OK. It would have been a fine snack, but the sandwiches turned out to be so big (we each got regular size - the large must be huge!), we really did not need the appetizer. The fries are "fresh-cut," and they really mean it! There is a hopper of russet potatoes (I guess about 50 potatoes) right next to the fryer. We did each have a chocolate chunk cookie (we really only had a bite of it because we were full), they are really spot-on with the "chunk" - the chocolate was substantial peices. A tasty end to the meal.“

“the food is great service is very friendly and the place is clean“

“A longtime gem. Under newer ownership, the food is just as good as the original. Check out the freezer filled with an assortment of their amazing soups! Service isn't the fastest, but food is prepared as ordered. Decor is fun (Star Trek!), although starting to show its age (the poster of Mr Spock in the ladies room is getting ragged). Parking is a bear, many of the nearby spots must be paid online.“

“The subs here are amazing—great cuts of meat, excellent flavor, and overall really high quality. My only complaint is the salad. I ordered one and it was mediocre at best: basically just shredded iceberg with a handful of black olives, a few pickles, and some cucumbers. For nearly $8, it felt like a rip-off considering I could’ve bought a whole bag of shredded iceberg at Juul for about a dollar. Iceberg doesn’t have flavor (it’s basically water), and while their vinaigrettes are delicious, they’d be much better served over a spring mix or microgreens. Bottom line: go here for the subs—the meatballs especially are phenomenal, I’d eat a whole bowl of them with gravy. But skip the salad, it’s not worth it.“

“This place has pepper/egg sandwiches every day of the week during lent season. 👏👏👏😍😍😍“

“Amazing Products, Amazing Knowledge of It's Products. Customer service is phenomenal. And we will definitely be back without a doubt.“

“The wraps and salads from The Sandwich Club are top notch. They don't skimp with the meat and I am often stuffed after one of their wraps. The meat quality also exceeded my expectations. It was much better quality than what I'd expect from a small sandwich shop.“

“always fresh food and friendly customer servers. yummmy food“

“A lovely downtown sandwich shop. We got an Avocado BLT, Shrimp and Crab Roll, Turkey Club, and a Cubano. Everyone loved their sandwich and enjoyed the ice cream dessert too. Staff was very helpful and I loved the style of the restaurant. Our only critical comment was the turkey club could have used more bacon (which was delicious). We can't wait to come back!“

“Good place all around. If you're looking for a quick bite, this is a good place to stop. There's a big variety in sandwiches and salads to try, and of course there's pizza and panzaroti made in the word fire oven.

We had a sandwich and a salad the first time we went and they were very good. As were the cookies, and lots to choose from. Will have to go back and check their other offerings. It also has a deli counter with cheese and meats.“

“Gabby is the best, every time I come in here she treats my family and I like we are part of her family. Smilling faces and great attitudes make coming in here a pleasure, even when we are waiting in line. I should have filled one of these surveys out a few visits before.“

“LOVE this place 😍...wish they would open one closer to me, I travel 3 hours to get my fix .. probably should move back to the area lol ..so much cheaper than the S-Way place ..and better, always crowded ..“

“This is a great location and lots of seating inside. Doesn’t feel small like other locations. Super friendly service and as always great food. I plan on patronizing this location again very soon!“

“I cannot say enough good things about this place..was warmly greeted and the restaurant was very clean and well stocked..food was very good, great fries! Very nice experience, will definitely be back .was so impressed with how nice the staff was!“

“EVER SINCE MY COWORKER BROUGHT ME HERE, I DON'T GO ANYWHERE ELSE FOR SANDWICHES!!! THIS PLACE KNOWS SUBS!! AND THE PEOPLE THAT WORK THERE, ALWAYS FRIENDLY AND ALSWAYS HELPFUL WHEN ORDERING FOR LARGE GROUPS. THE GUY THAT MAKES THE SANDWICHES IS A MASTER!!! ALWAYS MADE RIGHT!!! PLUS TRIED THE LASAGNA, MIND BLOWING!!!“

“Stopped by today on a Wednesday evening for the first time ever and I was stunned. Food was super good, fresh and the staff working today (May 14th) was incredible! Me and my girlfriend customized our subs a bit and we didn't have to repeat ourselves once. Place is kept extremely clean and the staff was just impressive. Food quality was top notch and its my new go to place!“

“Favorite place. Super delicious 😋“

“Ive been to almost alll Submmarines but this one takes it for the win! They were so welcoming and friendly and super clean for a small sandwich shop. Not only do they have a wide variety for subs and add ons but they also sell hot dogs , italian beefs , burgers and pizza puffs as well as so many side options from fries to mac n cheese bites! Give it a try and you wont regret it! Super clean , very nice family people 10/10And at the end the nice gentleman gave my daughter a free lollipop! Such a great experience and place full offf flavor and some crispyyyy golden fries“

“Sure! I had an amazing experience at Mr. Submarine at 8542 Ogden Ave in Lyons, IL. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm, friendly service that made me feel truly welcomed. The staff was attentive, polite, and eager to make sure I had everything I needed, which really stood out.

I ordered a combo sub and a pizza puff, and I have to say, it was exactly what I needed. The food came out fast and fresh, which was a relief since it was the first thing I had eaten all day. The combo sub was packed with flavor, with perfectly sliced meats, fresh toppings, and just the right amount of seasoning. The bread was soft yet sturdy, holding everything together without getting soggy. The pizza puff was crispy, cheesy, and delicious, adding the perfect touch to my meal.

Not only was the food top-notch, but the overall experience was fantastic. The staff really goes the extra mile to ensure customers leave happy, and that level of service is rare to find these days. I left feeling completely satisfied and already looking forward to my next visit. If you’re in the area and looking for great food, quick service, and a welcoming atmosphere, Mr. Submarine is the place to go!“

“just had dinner at this location, used the restroom and a cockroach came crawling under the door the size of a coin dollar & i have a video of it for those who dont believe me. i will not be coming back my stomach is turned upside down & i feel so sick right now.“

“Nothing!!! This has to be the ABSOLUTE WORST Jersey Mike’s I have ever dealt with!!! Can’t get anyone on the phone to help w a mobile app order……didn’t even get the food we paid for!!!“

“Go every time I'm in the area. Grilled pastrami Reuben“

“very good sandwiches and I love sweet tea“

“My middle daughter told me about this place and she wanted me to bring her a gym shoe sandwich actually 2. I tasted it when I got up to Washington and wow it was good. So when I got back to Chicago I went and bought one and I took my girlfriend with me and bought her one as well. We both enjoyed it immensely.“

“The place to go when you are shopping at Walmart if you ever get hungry, they have the best sandwiches in town. Are you especially like the subway melt which is ham, turkey, ham, bacon, and probably melted on it and then I had a lot of ingredients. I usually do it with multi Italian bread .“

“Usually love it, but put Mayo & mustard on the 8 subs I bought when I specifically said NO.... TOO far away to return 😣😢😠“

“Mr. Submarine continues to serve up delicious, satisfying food that keeps me coming back. Their subs are consistently fresh, generously portioned, and packed with flavor. Whether I’m ordering a classic Italian, turkey and cheese, or a hot Philly steak, the bread is always soft and fresh, and the ingredients taste high quality. Their fries and sides also hit the spot — crispy, hot, and well-seasoned. It’s clear that the kitchen staff takes pride in preparing solid, reliable meals that deliver on taste every time.

However, the customer service could definitely use improvement. On several visits, I’ve experienced long wait times and a lack of attentiveness from the staff. Orders are sometimes taken with minimal communication or eye contact, and there’s often a sense of being rushed even when the store isn’t busy. It doesn’t ruin the experience, but it does make it feel less welcoming than it could be.

A little extra friendliness and better organization at the front counter would go a long way in making Mr. Submarine a top-tier spot all around. The food already speaks for itself — now it’s time for the customer service to catch up. With a few adjustments, this place could be truly exceptional.“

“Jersey Mike's -Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois. We are super picky about where we get sub sandwiches. Jersey Mike's fits the bill every time. Oakbrook Terrace is our favorite location because of Alicia. The food and smiles she serves is top notch. I'll add some photos in the future but for now, trust me the sandwiches are filled beautifully. Alicia runs the show here from top to bottom. I can't say enough about her fantastic presence. People have unlimited places to purchase sandwiches --- it really helps bring in customers when they can expect to see a long time employee there with such great energy.. We love eating here and I highly recommend.“

“LOVE that they have Gluten Free bread. People without Celiac Didease, don't understand how much they take eating sandwiches for granted. I'm so thrilled right now 😁“

“This location is awesome put my delivery order in. The first driver never showed up and wouldn't answer my calls to give him detailed info on my location. After almost an hr called back Patrick who originally took my order was very professional sent me out another order and I got it pretty quick. I give Patrick 10 stars. I come to this area for work regularly I'll definitely be a repeat customer. Keep up the great work and thank you Patrick.“

“I love ordering great food from this specific Jimmy Johns because the ingredients taste so fresh and I have always had excellent customer service experiences there. The blonde tall guy with blue eyes who works the front counter has always been hella nice to me ever since i first stepped foot in there, and he's not too bad on the eyes as well, which is a plus ;) I wouldnt mind taking him for a ride on my Ninja 400 some time and maybe taking a trip to another Jimmy Johns store for food! X,D He likes my hat too! :3“

“I order lunch from here often and I just wanted to take the time to say I appreciate how hard they make sure to get me my order in a timely manner each and every time. Even when they're short on delivery drivers and Uber cancels. Thank you!“

“Came on Christmas Day, lady behind the counter was very kind. Greeted my boyfriend and I right as we walked in. And proceeded to make the most scrumptious, deliciously packed subs. I definitely would recommend.

Parking: Free parking in the back!“

“I love this place. The cashier was very nice taking my order. The employees we're friendly and courteous. The food was delicious. Me and my mom enjoy our sandwich. Definitely yes will go back and eat againg.“

“I recently started working for the Village of Downers and asked my supervisor for a good chicken salad spot. He recommended Mr. Submarine on Odgen, so I decided to try it out. When I went there around 6 p.m., the night crew was fantastic—professional, quick, and friendly. The salad was just perfect! I’ve been visiting every other day for their salads, and I honestly give the staff a five-star rating — they’re the best! I’ll be stopping by again this Friday to get another salad.“
