If there's one good thing about Jersey, it's food. And if there are two foods specifically unique to quality in Jersey, they're sandwiches and pizza.
I had the Oh Cherry, a big foot long of a sandwich and it was much bigger than I thought it'd be (I was expecting regular bread size portions). It was so delicious that I coudldn't possibly let ANY of it go to waste. I've never had a cherry spread on a sandwich before and had no idea it'd be so delicious! I'm from Montclair so we're not exactly neighbors, but if ever I'm in Union County again I know where I'm going for lunch!

Professional and friendly staff. The meat and toppings in my sub was fresh. However, the bread was hard, definitely not made the same day, but tasted 2-3 days old. There is no way the preparer could not have known it was hard when serving it.

I'm sorry, but this is some of the worst food. I've ever tried. The lentil soup was just like water and lentils. The spicy tuna was just not even spicy. The bread was stale, the black bean salad.The lettuce was wilted.I don't know not at all, what I expected

I was looking forward to trying out this sub shop today after reading the reviews. It's right in the middle of downtown Cranford where traffic is always busy, and parking is extremely limited. Sub-Ology doesn't have a designated parking lot and I never found a spot.
Looks like Google requires "stars" to post a review. I'm giving them 4, because the subs on their website "look" tasty. Disappointed...
Love this place and the owner is awesome. The first time coming in here I was overwhelmed because I have dietary restrictions so I made sure to come after the lunch rush. The owner behind the counter could tell I was taking extra time to look through the menu and after stating my preferences to him he kindly said "What can I make for you? I'll make you anything you want." I'll never forget that...It was my first real sandwich in years. Thank you!!!

Sub-Ology had AMAZING options and service was fast! Everyone here was super friendly! They have all kinds of chip flavors (BBQ, dill, sour cream & onion, salt & pepper, jalapeño) as well as offering an assortment of different kinds of packaged candies! They also have many options for drinks in the coolers! I ordered the Sub-Ology favorite and it was delicious! Will definitely come back here to try all the other different kind of Sandwiches! You can even customize your salads here as well!

UPDATE 2: They deleted their response. Nice.
UPDATE: The business' response to me has completely turned me off. Specifically, the lines, "Please contact us directly next time its probably easier then a 10 paragraph review," and "If the purpose is to leave a review and hurt our business then that is your choice. If your purpose is to get our attention then we are listening and willing to make it right."
My purpose is to leave an honest review.
My choice next time will be Pastosa.
**** I got the Alla Siciliana with a 2 oz bag of chips. Came out to a hair under $26.
Before I get into it, the sandwich genuinely tasted good. The bread was perfect, and was the standout. No notes on flavor at all.
My issue is with the ratios of ingredients on the sandwich. The Alla Siciliana is supposed to be comprised of imported Prosciutto di Parma, fresh burrata mozzarella, fresh pesto, extra virgin olive oil, arugula and thick balsamic glaze reduction, according to the online menu. The full hero costs like $21, so you'd think for that price at the bare minimum there would be a fair amount of prosciutto and burrata.
My sandwich had two incredibly thin slices of mozzarella that didn't even reach to the ends of the hero (they ended a bit less than halfway). And yes, it was mozzarella; burrata is supple, this mozzarella was dry. And if it WAS burrata, well....damn. Not great.
I had less prosciutto on this sandwich than the height of my pinky nail (and I keep my nails short). In fact, there was more arugula on the sandwich than there was prosciutto.
The cross section of the sandwich was decent, but there was almost nothing toward the ends of the hero. Just plain bread.
Also, there was no pesto or balsamic glaze. I took the sandwich apart to confirm after a few bites. Unclear if there was EVOO, as that is an ingredient that's a bit harder to discern (although I guess if it is this hard to figure out if it was there, there's probably a good chance it wasn't present at all).
Again, what I DID get tasted good, it was just so, so minimal. I sincerely want to give this place another shot, maybe it was just a bad day and they were off. But I think I'll stick to the cheaper end of the menu next time.
Will update this review if I go back.
