    I never been to this place before but it was an awesome visit. The cashier was such a Doll just because she took her time with the 4 of us making sure when get what we ordered. Her name is Ms Britney The food was great and the place was very clean. I didn't take pics of my food because we were press for time

    Firehouse Subs are some of my favorite destinations for sub sandwiches and for me, it's almost always the meatball sandwich. I think the reason is it's something that brings back fond memories of growing up and loving them as a kid. My aunt made a mean meatball grinder. One time I ate 3 of them in one sitting, something my belly regretted for the next couple of hours. The concept here is counter-served fresh ingredient offerings made-to-order by a friendly staff and the result is delicious consumable food. Just from experience, some of the most popular items on the menu include the Italian Sub, the Club on a Sub, and the Firehouse Meatball Sub. They also offer a variety of sides, such as mac and cheese, chips, and cookies. Get a combo and save. Oh, and the fountain drinks are all the same price no matter which size you choose. They cover a whole range of sauces from mild to very hot. You can also add a variety of sauces to your subs, including Firehouse Original, Sweet & Spicy BBQ, and Honey Mustard. They offer a variety of vegetarian and gluten-free options. Super friendly, clean, and located near the intersection of Slauson Ave and Crenshaw Blvd.

    All good on this first delivery from this particular Firehouse location . Order was correct and delivered in a timely manner - Bravo !

    Tiny 4'inch sub for $9

    I've eaten here twice, and both times the subs were underwhelming. This last time my sub was drenched in sauce and the bread falling apart. Lastly, Firehouse is very overpriced for what you get. A small 4inch sub for $9 is way too pricey. Go to Mike's Deli down the street, the subs are better and for a few dollars more you get a superior sandwich.

    Amazing service and hospitality! The man knew his hot sauces for my sandwich. Which was actually amazing for my sandwich!

    I cannot rave enough about Firehouse Subs. My wife took me there to tag along. I ordered a tuna fish sub. I was going to eat half and save the half later, but I couldn't do it. It was so delicious. I had the whole wheat roll. I ate the entire thing in one sitting, then returned and got a foot-long and ate the whole thing in one sitting. Also, my wife and children love their sandwiches. It is amazing. I also love that they like to do serious community service work. Several checks of over $1 million have been raised and donated to community efforts. Eating at the firehouse is a win-win situation for everyone. The atmosphere is clean, and the restaurant's ambiance is a deli counter experience. I highly recommend the Firehouse Subs at Madera Heights.

    Footlong Italian sub

    ### 2023 review 14/100 ### Since the SaMo location closed down, I came here for my Italian footlong. Ordered ahead on the app with all my fixings + also added a comment: do not cut my sub in 2. Showed up 5 mins after notification that my order was ready. But the girl behind the counter was just about to start making my sub. No biggie. 10mins wait she said. Guess fresher made! Then she asked me if I want all the ingredients and lettuce/tomatoes, etc. boxed on the side. Ugh? Oh she thought I meant "do not cut the bread" when I noted do not cut my sub in 2. LOL. Nope I'd like you to assemble my sub please ^_^ hahaha too funny. Fresh ingredients. Nice cut deli. Only thing is I would ask for the dressing on the side 'coz it gets the bread soggy too quick. Easy parking in lot. My new go-to location.

    Ask mustard, point which mustard, I'm ONLY PERSON HERE at 9:05pm Tues- I hear the girls bla bla talking- nobody used any mustard. ‍

    Employees tonight not sharp. 1) She never heard of the chicken parm- I had to show her on my phone, then the other woman told me no it's no longer here 2) She SPECIFICALLY said there's no specials today- but aren't there specials every day? It's Tues, my opening words were "Turkey bacon ranch?". So is she denying discounts to EVERYBODY all day??? Costing everybody a extra $2? Maybe management knows this **** 3) She and I pointed at the Dijon mustard together - on their little display box- I pleaded for extra on my sammich. Then I get home - NOOOOO mustard. Like ZERRRROOO. I was the ONLY person ordering- not like a busy time with a line. They were just back there gossiping. 4) I still left a $2+ tip at the beginning. This is not a helpful practice I would think at least mustard would come out of it.

    Got to try this Chicken Parmesan Meatball Sub @ FireHouse Subs

    I don't throw out 5 Stars very often. I'd go as be to say I rarely do, but Firehouse Subs straight up earned it! So let's start with the bad because let's face it, there isn't much bad! The parking lot and location is the worst that I can say negative about this place! If you're headed bear coming west bound on Slauson there is no left turn into this shopping plaza, so head up to the light at Home Depot and make a Uturn. It can get busy at lunch time and the parking lot only has one drive way in and out so it can get congested at times. But that's the bad, that's it! The good, and it's OH SO GOOD! Until today, I had very visited a Firehouse Subs, but the commercials currently running for the Parmesan Chicken Sub running on TV, I had to seek out this place. Sadly this location is the closest to me within 25 miles! (Please fix that asap!). The bread is super fresh and when a hot sub, it's toasted perfectly for an outer crust and soft inside! The Parmesan Chicken Sub is served on toasted garlic bread which let's face it, that's the way all meatball subs should be done! The chicken meatballs were so flavorful and the provolone melted cheese on top was perfection! My only complaint was my own doing and I ordered a small (which is half of a 6" sub) and i deprived myself of the deliciousness of a whole sub! TIP: Go Big! You're going to wish you did! The location was clean, had friendly employees making the most delicious subs which let's face it, within one block this street has amazing sandwich competition, but Firehouse is bringing it! They hold up against some of the best Subs LA has just down the street! And the fact that they give back to local first responders and fire departments earned them the extra star in my heart and belly! I'll be back & I'll be back often!

    Jalen had exemplary service. Suggested I try the spicy Cajun chicken sandwich and I think I'll only be ordering that from now on!

    I always order the Italian - best sub in town! Great sauce, fresh ingredients
    Dave W.

    Easy parking, great sandwiches! Best sub in town. Wish there was one closer to me ( west side). I always get the Italian, with cheddar and sour cream Ruffles and orange Fanta zero drink. Great chip and drink selection. They even have gluten-free bread.

Nothing succeeds like excess. In fact, most people will need a take out box for one less meal to cook. Delicatessen means delicate eating in German, but at a Jewish American Delicatessen, the emphasis is on the Eating, which I am not complaining. 1) I requested an off menu item of having a Reuben sandwich where half is Corned Beef and the other Pastrami. Brent's Reuben has warm Sauerkraut, grilled Rye bread, melted Swiss Cheese, 1,000 Island dressing. Thinly sliced, multi-layered Mound of Pastrami is a bit on the dry side. Curing doesn't create a deep meaty Umami and spicing is present but attenuated. The Corned Beef is moister with bit more Umami & plush, thin multi-layered red colored meat. I have to say the Pastrami at Langer's is cured more intensely to bring out a deep Umami as well as more complex and complementary spicing of especially warm spiced cloves that adds aromatic richness. Brent's Pastrami doesn't seem to reach that kind of apotheosis. 1b) I asked for the steak fries to be fried two minutes longer for a crisper finish which was honored. Not much in way of that distinctive potato earthiness, but acceptable. 1c) Coleslaw is mayonnaise based, watery, bland, but a good cruciferous, fibrous veggie to add more fibre, healthful phytochemicals to counter the meat overload even though it isn't flavourful 2) Carrot Cake is closer to a delicate, dense, moist spice cake. A slice is enormous since it is cut from an extra tall cake studded with crushed walnuts and a cream cheese like not too sweet frosting. At $14 it could feed 4 people. Service is fine. They take your order and run with it. Bit of tunnel vision where it may be a bit hard to flag them down. But the job does get done. Overall 3+ stars

I stopped in just before the lunch rush--a good strategy, especially on a Dodgers game day--and everything clicked from the moment I walked in. The first thing that caught my eye was Elizabeth carving lamb right off the bone and building my French Dip sandwich in front of me. That's not theater; that's the way they've done it for years, and I loved every minute of it. The lamb dip was outstanding, just as I remembered. Add a crisp pickle, a side of coleslaw, and a Miller Genuine Draft, and you've got a lunch that doesn't need any fancy introductions. The sawdust on the floor may be gone, but the personality certainly isn't. Philippe's still feels like old Los Angeles. People share tables, strike up conversations, and enjoy a meal without anyone rushing them out the door. Then there's something you almost never find downtown anymore--free parking. That's worth mentioning all by itself. Could I explain why I'm giving Philippe's five stars? I suppose I could. But when you have friendly people like Elizabeth, a fresh lamb dip made right in front of you, reasonable prices, free parking, and more than a century of Los Angeles history, what more could you ask for?

If you're visiting the area, I highly recommend making a stop here. My biggest piece of advice is to go early because it gets incredibly busy by lunchtime--and for good reason! Keep in mind they are closed on Monday and Tuesday. While you can order online, I'll always choose to go inside so I can browse everything they have to offer. Their selection of fresh pasta salads is fantastic, and the desserts are always tempting. Whether you're craving lasagna, spaghetti and meatballs, a chicken Parmesan sandwich, or one of their many other Italian specialties, you really can't go wrong. Be sure to check out the wine section in the back left of the market. It's extensive and absolutely incredible! This is the kind of place that keeps people coming back year after year, and it's easy to see why. Being Italian American and growing up with an Italian mother who loved feeding everyone, this was one of our favorite places to visit together. Those memories make every trip here even more special. My personal favorite is the Godmother sandwich--hands down one of the best you'll ever have. It's packed with flavor, made with quality ingredients, and it's the sandwich I find myself craving every time I come back. One of the things I love most about this place is the atmosphere. It has an energy that immediately makes you think of family. Everyone is genuinely kind, welcoming, and happy to help, making you feel right at home the moment you walk through the door. It has that warm, old-school Italian family vibe that's becoming harder and harder to find, and it's a big part of what makes this place so special.
