50 Best Sandwich Shops in Houston

“This THAI TURMERIC LEMONADE is the absolute best ever….. I plan to stop by everyday 😍“

“I’d rate this spot a 3.5/5!
This restaurant is located inside of a Walmart so there was plenty of parking which is always a relief.

My friend and I ordered the following:
6 PC Lemon Pepper Wings w/ fries
6 PC Mango Habanero Wings w/fries
Philly Cheesesteak Meal w/ Strawberry Shake
Ice Cream Cone

Despite it being pretty busy, our order was ready in less than 10 minutes. To start off, the strawberry shake was decent! The ice cream cone was also good but it was a little too soft- the ice cream was already dripping and collapsing when we received it.
As for the food, the wings weren’t bad! The lemon pepper wings naturally maintained its crunchy texture better than the mango habanero wings since it’s a dry rub but both were good nonetheless. Also, the mango habanero wasn’t that spicy (for spice reference, I enjoy eating flamin hot cheetos). Now I’m curious to see if the scorpion sting flavor is really that spicy.
I wasn’t able to try the Philly Cheesteak but my friend said it was good and very filling.
In terms of the fries, I’d recommend getting the Cajun seasoning (it’s no extra charge) since the normal fries lack some salt.“

“This was very yummy!! Stop in and try the vegan bahn mi sandwich!“

“Another Houston winner (I may just start a blog the way I’m eating Houston up 😂)! Visited this establishment this weekend and simply, The Bacon Jam Burger sliders…Delicious! That jam! Served with fries and extra Cajun season salt with the dynamite dip! My God! The staff was wonderful! Would recommend and definitely coming back to try the salads!“

“Subs taste great and I love that they offer 3 sizes to match your appetite. Enjoy trivia on Tuesdays. The place is always spotless clean.“

“Fresh bread toasted sammie. Everyone was very nice. I’m a potbellies girl, so that’s my bar, but this was a good sammich“

“My family, visiting Houston, fell in love with this place and got lunch there everyday. The owners are exceptionally welcoming and thoughtful, as are all the staff. The sandwiches are delicious, with quality ingredients. The setting is artful and bright and airy. Try it“

“First time trying this place and it’s 10/10 amazing!!!“

“Great hole in the wall, with delicious gyros and salads. I'm sure there's more, but those are my favorites!
Food is consistently perfect. The place is very basic, you definitely want this for the quality, not for the location. When I eat here, I notice a lot of food-to-go pick-ups.“

“Food is incredibly delicious and fresh. This restaurant is so very clean. All of their employees were so helpful and kind as it was our first visit. How I wish they had one in Lafayette, Louisiana!! Looking forward to eating there the next time we are in this area.“

“Amazing food and great service. We buy for our staff regularly. Highly recommend you won’t be disappointed! Luv luv luv“

“I came here on my break while working the election on March 3rd and wanted to get some banh mi for my wife and I. I got meatball with egg and pate and she got chicken. Hands down, this was the best banh mi we have ever had. Both of us agree. Everything was so flavorful and tender and juicy, and the bread was perfect too. We don't live in the area but may have to take a trip to come back sometime. I'd love to try their BBQ pork my next visit.

I'd also like to note that the service and conversation was absolutely excellent. The entire experience was wonderful and I'd recommend this place to anyone and everyone!“

“Charley's came to my life extremely randomly, I have never heard of it until today! I was in Walmart and just got done with doing inventory at all three of my properties, I currently manage in Houston, and I saw this restaurant in the Walmart that I had never seen before. The pictures looked delicious, and I just had to try one of their cheesesteaks. The Walmart I frequent in Atlanta has a Subway inside of it and I'll be honest I am not a fan of Subway, I was starving while shopping then suddenly I was overcome with joy because I got to try a new place.
When I got to the register there was no one in line so I was taking my sweet time making my choices, I ended up going with the classic cheesesteak and a real blueberry lemonade, the cashier was really young and we had a casual conversation while my food was being made.
I got my order and I was so hungry I decided that I was going to eat right then and there. The space was really big, they had plenty of tables and chairs, they actually had a cool backdrop and throne you can take pictures on! It's really cool to see. If I had someone with me, I would have taken a flick.
The food was tasty, I honestly don't know if it was because I had not eaten all day, and my taste buds were heightened, but my cheesesteak tasted a bit salty. Again, in their defense, I worked out and played basketball all day without eating, so that could throw my taste out of whack. With all that being said, the food was good, very filling, I do believe I received an adequate amount of food that I paid for, and that is always something to smile about. Next time, I am going to try their chicken and one of their milkshakes.“

“Never disappoints! Friendly staff and fast service!“

“the loaded tater tots are banging the stuff belly Texas with barbecue sauce is banging both of the tuna sandwiches are delicious they are also delicious with half and half that is without the bread the strawberry lemonade tea the blackberry lemonade tea or both banging the new chicken Po boy you must try it ASAP it's banging. 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯“

“Stopped in today and had a great sub. Kept it simple with the basic Italian. The bread is amazing and ingredients are fresh. Best of all, very friendly and helpful staff.“

“My husband and I have been coming off and on (honestly we need to go more!!) for about 6 months after passing by it for years on the way to other stuff and MAN do we regret not coming earlier! We mostly get the Italian Sub on Zesty Parmesan and oh my goodness its the best sub sandwich in Houston, I would put money on it! We call in our orders and it never takes more than 5-10 minutes, which is conveniently the drive time to get there from our house. Not to mention the owners are the friendliest people in the entire world, developing deep relationships with all their clientele. They had our orders memorized by the second order. Can't recommend them enough!“

“Great food Excellent Service and friendly workers“

“Thank you Jacob and the entire staff for the amazing hospitality and delicious sandwiches!!! Love this place and everyone is always so nice!!!“

“Great for hanging out with family!“

“Delicious Super Fast service great customer service Chicken Portobello Hot Sub“

“Martha was great as soon as we walked in, she greeted us was happy to serve us. The subs were done to perfection with love!!! We had stopped at a different location but left because the employee was not pleasant as we walked in she was already in a bad mood, so we decided to drive a little further and it was so worth it!“

“great place to pick up a quick bite.“

“Work Lunch
If you want to dine in, diner style, with tablecloths on the table. Don't worry if you are ordering to go, the sandwiches stayed warm all the way back to the office.
And the best part is that it was all delicious! Everyone was happy with their choices!“

“Quality, flavorful, healthy. I went with the avocado and quinoa superfood ensalada. It was perfection. Order now… can’t wait to explore their menu! I’ll be a regular….well done.“

“Nick and the crew at this establishment consistently delivered exceptional service. We will undoubtedly return. The service was flawless and the food was fresh and appetizing. The cleanliness of the premises was also noteworthy. If it were possible, I would give them 10 stars for every aspect of their service. Thank you for treating us with respect and providing superior customer service!!!“

“tapiocas and sandwiches are so good and flavorful“

“Todo fresco limpio y sobretodo con una buena atención y las medidas necesarias 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻“

“Not sure what the man’s name is that was working , but he made mine an my husbands sandwich perfectly!! He was all by himself but still took his time and made sure it was perfect. Greatly appreciated that. He is an amazing worker! And so friendly :)“

“I received a coupon in the mail but unfortunately was having trouble using it due to the system claiming it had already been used/expired. Itzy generously helped me out with my little problem ? and provided me with the best sandwich I have had in years!!! She is so sweet and even went as far as to offer me recommendations. Love subway!!!“

“good!“

“Zero’s Sandwich Shop – Downtown Houston- Dallas St

Their homemade bread steals the show. It is crisp on the outside, soft and warm inside. You can taste the difference in every bite. My go-to is the chicken breast sandwich, simple, fresh, and perfectly balanced. No gimmicks, just a solid, meal made right. Friendly folks, fast service, and real flavor.

Bottom line: come for the chicken, stay for the bread.“

“Cornelia was awesome in her customer service!!!!!!! She offered me the senior discount, I did not even know Corner Bakery offered them. Nice friendly service with a smile. It certainly brighten my day and made me feel welcomed and appreciated. Great job!!!!“

“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa“

“Zero’s had the best sandwiches ever! My fiance got the turkey avocado sandwich and I got the turkey cranberry sandwich, two of their specials. I can’t decide which one was more delicious! The bread is fresh and moist, the lunch meet is good quality and all of the toppings they added were fresh and complimented the sandwich so well. They were very fast and the service was delightful, they served the sandwiches right to us. We loved it so much we came back the next day for more. We have left Houston but I know I’ll be thinking about those sandwiches for a long time. Highly recommend!“

“Great place with awesome food and service.“

“First timer, soon to be regular. Fresh, hot, tasty Philly cheesesteak. Friendly staff , fast service.“

“Today's breakfast was absolutely delicious 😋 Anaheim scrambler with oatmeal and potatoes.... it was definitely Time to Eat!“

“Nice and curtsy people food was good and fresh“

“This is one of my favorite Firehouse restaurants. I don’t know why but the food just seems better here. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone. So much better than Subway!“

“The Fiesta Chicken and new Tuscan ciabatta sandwiches are incredible!!!“

“Esmeralda was so kind and made my visit unforgettable. She went out of her way to make sure everything was perfect and the food was amazing! Her positive attitude and care really touched me. She made me feel welcome and happy—thank you Esmeralda, for being so amazing!“

“I love this particular Charley’s!! They food tastes great, they are friendly and my food comes as I expect it. I have tried other Charley’s in the area and back in Chicagoland area and this is my favorite!! Came in today and DeMarcus made today a great experience, very friendly, ensured food was correct and when people have great service it makes you want to come back time and time again and spend your money. Wish more places understood that concept.“

“Great breakfast and delicious desserts! 👍🏿“

“Friendly helpful staff prepared a wonderful veggie sandwich and let me finish eating it in the restaurant even after closing time.“

“Now this is an employee you need to keep! Megan was the only one working during rush hour. She was running back and forth, handling everything quickly, and still had a smile on her face. Meanwhile, her coworker showed up late, but Megan kept everything moving without missing a beat. She is such a hard worker, and this Subway is truly lucky to have someone like her. I will definitely be returning to this location because of Megan and her kindness during a stressful and long wait.“

“It's been awhile since I visited Charley's. This location simply has the Best customer service ever. Tip of the hat to Jocelyn!!! Very pleasant a well as accommodating. Sometimes the food isn't always the reason you patronize an establishment. Keep up the good service and tasty food!“

“Love having this location so close to my house. We have been coming here for years. The staff is always very friendly. The restaurant was recently renovated and it’s very nice and clean. My family eats here at least once a week, sometimes two. Food is always fresh. I often bring one son with me and we dine in then get two subs to go for the rest of the family.“

“I recently visited Charleys Cheesesteaks and was assisted by Jasmine at the register. Jasmine provided outstanding customer service throughout my visit. She greeted me with a warm smile and was very patient while I decided on my order. Jasmine answered all my questions about the menu and made helpful recommendations, which I really appreciated.
She handled my transaction quickly and efficiently, ensuring that everything was correct. Jasmine also checked in to make sure I had everything I needed before I left the counter. Her friendly attitude and professionalism made my experience enjoyable, and she truly went above and beyond to make me feel welcome.
Overall, Jasmine is an excellent cashier who represents Charleys Cheesesteaks very well. I look forward to returning and hope to see her again!“

“I really love this hidden gem it, I literally drive from Rosenberg to buy their baos and asian tamales. The owner is so sweet and they lock their doors because crime is high so just call them or knock they will open if its within their business hours.
Their baos are excellent and prices r better than Chinatown. Its like comfort food for me“
