“We were visiting from out of town and what a great choice to go to Primo Hogies!! The whole staff was incredible!! Food was great! If anyone is on the fence about what they want to eat, this is the place to go! Thank you guys!! Looking forward to coming back!!“

“Probably the best sloppy joe I’ve ever had. I rarely leave reviews, but this place deserves it, 100%. The guys who make the magic happen inside of this establishment are always happy, and welcoming, leaving you with a memorable TASTY experience. Also, the hot dogs are out of this world. Will keep coming back as long as they’re open ❤️“

“I have been eating at Earl's for 15+ years. Personal favorites are the Pork and Fries, Salmon BLT and Cuban Club, but all of the sandwiches and sides are excellent. New Orleans Turkey Gumbo is an underrated choice for something outside the sandwiches as well. Ingredients and staff are the best and I have never had anything but great food here.“

“This place has really good banh mi at good prices. I think they may have changed their bread recipe recently, because the bread used to be too hard but now it's soft with the right amount of crisp on the crust. Ham Banh Mi is hard to beat.

Vietnamese coffee also really, really good.It's the best option I've found in NoVA for both Banh Mi and Vietnamese coffee.“

“The Sandwich Shop is awesome! I’ve had every sandwich a few times, and some dozens of times. They are all great. And the fries are the best! But if you don’t want fries, get the cheesy bacon tater tots! You can’t go wrong. This is a real gem in Vienna.“

“We enjoyed a quick supper and it was fabulous! Great service, generous portions, reasonable prices and yummy too! Thanks for a wonderful first visit...“

“We got the bacon egg cheese croissant sandwiches. They are fresh & delicious. John drank coffee and said it was really good. I drank bottled water. I would eat here again.“

“Wonderful service. Top notch store manager. Had a lovely conversation with her. She has a great relationship with the team. The store is impeccably clean and the food is delicious.
Thank you for great service !
All the best

“IF YOU LIVE WITHIN 500 MILES OF THIS PLACE, STOP WHAT YOU’RE DOING AND GET YOURSELF A CHICKEN CHESAPEAKE SANDWICH IMMEDIATELY! #wow #11+“

“Our go-to sandwich joint. Jay is the best!“

“The cookies are so fresh and full of flavor. Also am a big fan of the coffee.“

“This was my first time going to this place. I was searching for a nearby place that had sourdough bread sandwiches and this one came up so I decided to try it. It did not disappoint. Very refreshing to not have to drive to Lorton 15 minutes away! thank you!“

“Coming from nyc and discovered this on the go and it was just delicious. Kimchi burrito was incredible (must get) and so was the brie sandwich. Came in a second time and got the pork katsu and was also amazing. The place is nice and clean and the way the burrito was carefully wrapped in a nice foil with the logo was a great touch, like you can tell they care.“

“The owner goes above and beyond. Upon entering, she took our order and we sat down.
A large group walked in shortly, and she wanted them to be comfortable so she pulled over a table and chairs, and urged that she wanted them to be comfortable.

We ordered the pancake platter, mango tango smoothie, and the Philly cheese steak.

The pancakes were fluffy, eggs cooked to perfection. And the sandwich was nicely composed. Not oily like most Philly sandwiches. The bell peppers in the Philly tasted fresh and the meat was soft and tender. Flavors, overall great.

The place felt like a home, and everything made to order.

I’ll be back with an appetite to support this small business.“

“Wow, I'm SO excited to have a great sandwich shop in Ballston!!!! The sandwiches are so freaking good, and I'm usually not big on fries or home-made chips, but I finished it all, they're both so delicious. The bread is so good too, and everything is reasonably priced. This is going to be my go-to sandwich place in the area. I can't wait to try their cocktails next!“

“We love the food ?“

“The seasonal coffees are the best :)“

“Donny is the best at the Lorton Market location!! He was very helpful..he will make your day!“

“Exceptionally delicious sandwiches. I have no quibble with their size. One is hard for me to finish in a sitting. I dream about the tasty bread, but the fillings are also top tier and wonderfully balanced in terms of flavor. I go whenever I’m in DC, and never had a bad sammie yet.“

“I had a great experience at Subway. The restaurant was clean and well maintained, and I was greeted as soon as I walked in. The staff was friendly, patient, and prepared my order exactly as requested. The ingredients looked fresh, and my sandwich was made quickly without sacrificing quality. Overall, the service was efficient, the food tasted great, and I left satisfied. I would definitely return and recommend this location to anyone looking for a quick, fresh meal.“

“Good afternoon my husband was just in there and one of the employees have her child there. The little girl is running around the store. Coughing on everyone. The line is backed up. This is unacceptable. People are walking out because the little girl is running all around the store and she's coughing all over the place. Y'all losing money“

“The best hummus ever. You can also buy it locally at Whole Foods and Safeway. Wide menu of salads, spits sandwiches, soups (!), and pizza. Outdoor seating but makes great picnic or carry-out. I especially love the turkey Veggie Hummus pita sandwich. It’s so good!“

“Ordered Taylor Gourmet on Uber Eats. It came up as a black owned business near me so of course I wanted to check it out to support. And the food was great! I ordered the California Avenue sandwich. I should have gotten a regular size but I got a large and it is just that. A Large 😂 I also tried the cracked spuds and they were ok. Would def eat here again ! Thanks for the freshness“

“This is my favorite Subway. I have been to many subways in my lifetime. I've never been impressed to where I thought I'd write a review. I've come here three times so far and each time I was greeted with a smile. The vegetables are always fresh and the store is always clean. The employees are always patient with me and my kids because we never know what we want. One day I had gotten off of work and got some mud in the store from my boots. They were not angry at all, definitely didn't do it on purpose, but they could see how exhausted and hungry I was at the time. Because of how nice they are to me, my family and the atmosphere this will be my forever subway! Keep doing what you're doing. ❤️❤️“

“Try to come here when it isn’t lunch rush if possible. Not enough workers to handle the amount of people coming in on their lunch break. Our order only half-came out so to speak, my husband got his food but I almost got someone else’s food and had to wait longer. The wait was worth it though, my chicken pesto wrap was excellent and hubby’s Korean fried chicken was good too.“

“This family-owned market in DC is a real hidden gem! The coffee is always fresh and flavorful, and the sandwiches are out of this world. Their Italian sub is a must-try—loaded with quality ingredients and packed with flavor. Friendly vibes, quick service, and everything feels made with care. Perfect spot for a coffee break or a hearty lunch, I’ll definitely keep coming back!“

“I’d like to share my appreciation for the excellent service provided by Muhammad and Waway and also the very polite and nice one aynalem. They were anll incredibly professional, patient, and attentive throughout the entire interaction. They made sure all my concerns were addressed clearly and went above and beyond to ensure I was satisfied. Their positive attitude and willingness to help truly made a difference. Thank you all for such outstanding customer service!“

“We had breakfast there: omelette and croissants w/freshly brewed coffee! The place was very clean and the personnel was very friendly and patient. I would go back!“

“Ingredients are fresh, service is quick, customer service friendly! The bulgolgi sub ran me $18.07 for just the sandwich itself. It's a bit pricey imo, making this place a special occasion to stop by rather then being a regular weekly visit for your average customer. I would repeat 🔁 just not all the time :)“

“The food, coffee and service was excellent as usual !“

“I only purchased a soda but the gentleman working was nice enough to let me use the restroom. The store was very clean ,he was very polite and the bathroom smelled decent. When I get a craving for subway this is the place I'm coming to. Its comforting knowing a place keeps things clean..helps food digest better.“

“The good: Omar was great and he was so helpful and nice, he even went over the deals of the day. The other lady not so much, she had bad attitude, and rude come backs when she barely put cheese on the sandwich and then when I asked her which sandwich had jalapeños she asked Omar to open the sandwich because she didn’t remember. Her attitude was terrible! All she had to do was make a mark on the sandwich that was different, that was it. The only reason I take a star is because of her attitude, other than that it was good service.“

“Love this place. Nice selection of beer, wine and snacks. Associates are always friendly and helpful. I switched from leather to an electronic wallet all at once and their cashiers basically showed me how it worked. ? Thanks for everything, guys!“

“10/10, never disappoints. The breakfast sandwiches are customizable and always filled with protein, the coffee beverages are delicious, and they freshly squeeze orange juice (literally best OJ I’ve ever had in my life). Prices are great too for the area, and the servers are lovely!! Love this spot so so much!!“

“I had a great experience at this Subway location! The restaurant was clean, the ingredients were fresh, and the service was fast. Sam was awesome,very friendly, patient, and made my sandwich exactly the way I like it. It’s not common to find someone who cares about the customer experience as much as Sam does. I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended! ✅“

“Delicious 😋 sub love it 😋“

“Great sandwiches! Today I enjoyed the grilled chicken burrito. It was outstanding! Nice and fresh! The beef and chicken cheesesteaks are also delicious!“

“This is the only Subway location that I like. Always clean with fresh ingredients. The employees here are friendly and efficient. Many Subways I’ve visited in recent years have become dirty and poorly run with ingredients that look old, so this is the only one I go to now. This spot has been consistently well-run for many years.“

“Devon & Blakely: The Dynamic Duo of Lunch

In Latin America you have Wisin and Yandel. In Vegas, Siegfried and Roy. In Gotham City, Batman and Robin. In Washington, we have Devon and Blakely.

Their soups are great. Their sandwiches are great. Their salads are something else entirely — vast, leafy monuments to abundance. Each bowl feels like it should come with a carbon offset for the sheer scale of greens involved.

Behind the glass station stands the salad maestro, a tong-wielding virtuoso who rhythmically chops, tosses, and compresses vegetables into submission. The result is a tin tub filled to the brim, a perfectly diced ecosystem of roughage that will take the average mortal 45 minutes to chew through.

It’s excessive. It’s ridiculous. It’s delicious. Devon and Blakely aren’t just making lunch — they’re performing it.“

“I stopped by Pret A Manger in downtown D.C. for a quick breakfast, and it was exactly what I needed — fast, clean, and consistently good. The atmosphere is bright and casual, perfect for grabbing a bite before work or while exploring the city. The staff were efficient and polite, keeping the line moving even during the morning rush.

I tried a croissant and a cappuccino, both fresh and served at the right temperature. The selection of sandwiches, pastries, and juices looked appealing and well-presented. It’s a reliable spot for fresh food, good coffee, and a comfortable break in the middle of D.C.“

“awesome place , current staff are super fast and very friendly,“

“I worked in this area of K St. for about 4 months and AHRA Cafe was my GOTO!! They have a great variety of food, kind staff and a relaxing atmosphere for Business. Clean relaxing and quiet place to get some work done out of your office. Get the steak and cheese you won’t regret!“

“I had the Italian sandwich with all the works, and it was well worth it. The gentleman with locs was incredibly understanding and helpful, and the woman who was managing both the register and cooking was fantastic as well. She may have a quiet voice, but she definitely means business! I never got their names but both of them were very nice!
The staff were friendly, welcoming, and provided excellent service. I'll definitely be adding this spot to my list of essentials whenever I'm in the area for conferences. Highly recommended!“

“I recently visited Panera and had such a pleasant experience overall. The atmosphere was clean, and the customer service truly stood out!
It was actually Easter, and I had a long, emotional day—I had taken my mother to the hospital and, being 8 months pregnant, I hadn’t eaten yet. I was exhausted and overwhelmed. But an employee named Anthony completely turned my day around.
His attitude was amazing—so polite, patient, and genuinely kind. He treated me with such care and respect, and in that moment, it meant everything. This is exactly the kind of customer service we need more of today.
I’m so grateful for that experience—it’s honestly going to be a core memory for me of how customer service should be. God bless him!“

“I visit this subway often for a late lunch and am served by Rahindra on a regular basis. He is always friendly and engaging, very respectful and makes sure my sandwich comes out exactly the way I want it. I have other nearby subways within walking distance, but the friendliness and consistently good experience is why I choose this location.“

“The best Jersey Mike’s in Alexandria! I got the chicken salad sub and a #13 w/bacon for my wife. The chicken salad was delicious and you can’t go wrong with the #13 sub. Nice way to start my weekend and highly recommended. Friendly staff and quick service.“

“La comida es buena pero son demasiado de lentos 30 min esperando mi orden... ll“

“Amazing establishment, incredibly outstanding staff, the place is clean, food comes
Out quick, you couldn’t pick a better place to eat at the Wharf. GRAZIE GRAZIE WILL MOST DEFF SEE ME AGAIN. 💯 best pizza I’ve ever hard. 😍“

“I just got two sandwiches yesterday, and I never had an issue with quality and service. Sometimes, I like to order online also in advance so I can use the coupons. I think in the middle of the day is the best time to go cause I always see at least 3 people behind the counter in my opinion“
