Highland Super Submarine Sandwich Shop

Fast service. Sandwiches and cash only. Restrooms clean. Bread is soft and sweet. Thin lettuce. All was fresh. They're turning lots of sandwiches. Looks like lots of local traffic.

The sandwiches are amazing. Super sub for the win. All the way from Oregon to try. Probably try the Chinese food next time.

A wonderful sandwich spot that is always delicious and consistent. The only complaint I have about this place is that they close before 7 PM and randomly for a week or two at a time and the only way to find that has happened is to drive to the restaurant. It's almost 2024, this place desperately needs a website or a social media page so it can inform its customers of when it is actually open.

This place is known by locals as "The Chinese Sub-Shop." Currently, they only accept take out orders.My review is solely on their 12" Chicken Sandwich which is perfection. Just order it if you are hungry and trust me, you will be happy.Staff is small and all are very nice, friendly and reliable. This place has been around since 1969 and their quality has lived up to the years.A must whilst in Memphis.

CASH ONLY!!! Didn't get to get anything to eat since they are cash only. They used to be good though.

It took me nearly 29 years, but I finally got a sub from the legendary Chinese Sub Shop (known formally as Highland Super Submarine Sandwich Shop).I ordered the 8-inch chicken breast sub with all of the standard toppings (cheese, lettuce, tomato, salt, onion, Italian dressing and mayo). I skipped the mustard as I've found it that it can sometimes overpower the other flavors on a sandwich. Let's start with the bread...man oh man. It was sweet, soft and lightly toasted. It did a great job of holding the contents of the sandwich together. The white slice of cheese was heftier than I expected. The chicken breast was lightly fried, which I did not expect. I'm usually hesitant to order chicken breast sub sandwiches as I've found deli-style chicken breast meat to be on the drier side, but this was delicious, juicy and flavorful. The breading was relatively light, so I didn't feel like I was eating a traditional fried chicken sandwich. The combination of lettuce, tomato and onion added a familiar texture to the sandwich. The condiments, specifically the Italian dressing, added a unique zing to the sandwich that elevated it to another level. The oily and vinegary concoction paired well with the creamy mayo. The two were well distributed on the sandwich, so no bite was dry.I was torn between the 8- and 12-inch options, but I'm glad I stuck with the 8-inch. It's a very filling sandwich. Of course, I wish credit cards were accepted. But I'm willing to make a stop at the ATM for this place. It's that good.

Awesome spot! Locally owned, cash only! Great little spot to get a quick bite to eat! Has a good variety of options.

Just over here in California wishing I was able to get the famous sub shop subs. Miss seeing you guys and eating the yummy food. Glad to see you're still serving the community. Hope to be back soon.

I've been going here almost a decade and the food is amazing and consistent! If you love sandwiches, this is one great place to go. Don't forget to bring cash only.

Memphis icon. One of my favorites since childhood and it's barely changed at all. My favorite subs.
