Hot pepper philly 14"This sandwich could have easily been for two. Their sandwiches have an authentic taste of what you would expect from a mom and pop sandwich shop. The portion of meat was very generous and the peppers were not over bearing as to steal away from the philly steak taste. In addition to the sandwich I got an order of fries. The fries were a nice golden brown just how I like them. In all my total was around $11. Nice deal for two even though I ate by myself. It was too much to eat in one sitting so my sandwich is covering two meals. Very pleased :)

I am all about supporting my local businesses. Especially, if it has been in a business for a long time and looks like a true hole in the wall. Usually, they are doing something right to keep them a float for all of these years. However, that was not the case here.I had read that their cheesesteaks were pretty decent from the other reviewers. I came in and got a 14 inch mushroom steak. It was lacking in meat and flavor, it was very bland. They did not have much as far as sauces to help boost up the flavor either. A bottle of A1 and tobasco. Also the 14 inch was just 2 7 inch subs. That proved to be good because I ended up just taking home the other half and adding some extra ingredients at home to make it a little bit better tasting. I must say the price point was good, but the wait time was pretty slow too.

I brought my lunch today for work. Except, I needed to go on a bank errand during my break. After leaving the bank Mr. Submarine caught my eye AGAIN. I had to stop. I needed to find out if this place had a good sub. Sandwiches are my favorite food, and some how the name reminds me of The Beatles, Yellow Submarine. The first thing I noticed walking in is how clean it looked and smelled in there. I like when restaurants take pride in cleanliness. The set-up here is counter staff. Order at the counter and pick-up at the counter. I asked for a recommendation from the cashier. He highlighted numerous choices for me kindly. I'm into spicy foods so I ordered the Hot Pepper Philly. I walked around the place after I placed my order and look around. The decor here was pretty minimal, but decent for a family ran sub shop. I notice they have all kinds of things to fit everyones taste. From salads to wings I say they have a fitting menu. The prices here are more than reasonable, so this beats out other places around here in value.I picked up my sandwich and bought a whole pickle. It's been a while since I've had one of those. When I got to work I dove right in. This sandwich is huge! 7 inches, unlike the 6 inches you get anywhere else and priced at $3.89! BOOM! I'm sorry, but thats exciting for me. Great taste, the beef was very well seasoned and the veggies were fresh. They use mayo and a house dressing that gives the sub a kick. The bread was nice, warm, and soft. This is the first sub that actually held together through the entire session.When I want very delicious and inexpensive subs, this will be my spot. I am proud to have gone in and tried it myself.

Okay, so I've been getting philly cheesesteak sandwiches here for a few years. It's certainly a hole in the wall, but the food is great.The inside is rather small and not incredibly comfortable, but it reminds me of the little "ma and pa" sub shops that I eat at whenever I'm in New England. You don't get too much of that down here. It's just very cozy and laid back, but I normally just order to go.My last visit here, I ordered "The Grand Philly" It comes with lettuce, tomato, onion, and mushroom. The bread was perfectly fresh. The vegetables were fresh and they added just the right amount of sauce.

Slightly disappointed. I got the 7" steak and cheese all the way with toppings and a side of fries. On the plus side this place is cheap, less than $7 for these two things.Downside was the place had a funky smell when I walked in, though it was clean. Several other reviewers raved about the bread but I just thought it was OK. The sandwich was big, but the bread sort of overwhelmed the fillings and they didn't have a lot of flavor impact. I used quite a bit of habanero sauce to fill out the flavor (I eat way spicier than the average Yelper.)The fries, while probably frozen, were cooked nicely but had no salt so you have to shake it on at the table. Last annoyance was they included no napkins and I had to wait for them to get it behind the counter.Unfortunately Papa Geno's judging by all the locations and their Yelp great reviews, has this place easily beat.

I came here on a lunch date with my lover and have to say i was quite impressed! This sub shop is sort of in a ghetto area and looks kind of run down. I ordered a turkey sub and my bestie ordered a philly cheesesteak sub. Both to my surprise were tasty and TOASTED...i just love when my subs are toasted. i hate eating a cold sandwich :( The place is well kept and clean which is nice since it's in a ghetto area. Also they sell pupusas here...so don't think you are limited to subs. The chip selection is large and has a lot of variety..which is great. On the whole Mr. Submarine is a great lunch spot and without question i will be returning and i propose you try the philly cheesesteak sub because it was simply delish.

I had a chicken sandwich, it was decent but they left off several of the toppings I ordered. I wouldn't say that this place is any better than subway, but because it's local and not a chain, I'm definitely more likely to support it. Cookies were just mediocre as well. I'm a huge cookie fanatic and I might still go to Subway after I get a sandwich here to get cookies.

This place is so good! Sure, it's not the coolest location and it's not the prettiest shop, but great googley moogley are the sandwiches divine! My favorite is the super, but all the steak sandwiches are awesome. The ladies that work there are kind and speedy. Oh, and it's cheap! I got a steak sandwich for 6 bucks, cheaper than if I got a burger from Wendy's. It's been around for decades and I hope it's here forever!

Get the Philly or the Hot Pepper Philly, but expect slow service. I suggest calling ahead.I've been going to this place for years and it's still a favorite. It's not the best location, but don't let looks scare you off.Also, no, Papa Geno's is definitely NOT better.

This joint is proof that looks can be sooo decieiving! Driven past Mr. Submarine IDK how many times & never stopped. Man I totally have been missing out. Let's just get this out of the way: Yes, this spot is what many would consider "in the hood". Ummm...this is not the real hood. No it's not West U or The Heights, but it's not the SW side either. ijs... Service was friendly & quick. On to the important stuff: the food! They've got the sub shop standards & a variety of Philly steak style options. What's different about this place is they serve their sammies warm, but will serve cold on request. Their subs are also either 7" or 14" vs. 6/12. I had the Italian sub & man was it delish! They weren't skimpy on the meat or the veggies. Veggies were fresh & it had the perfect amount of mayo, oil & vinegar. But man oh man that freakin bread stole the show! It was sooo warm & soft. Tasted like it'd come straight from the oven to the prep table. Def not your standard chain sub bread. I'm tempted to ask if they'll just sell me the bread solo. It's just that good. And you cannot beat the price. Their sub combo is a 7" sub, drink, chips & a cookie for $6! Most 7" subs are around $3 if you don't want the combo. They also have wings & I saw a sign for papusas. Will be back for sure.
