Really looking forward to the day that Salami Mammi opens and beats every "Italian" sandwich shop…read morein this town into a bloody pulp. Monkey's has apparently been around a while and does enough of the basic things right that a friend thought it would be a good idea if I went over and gave it a shot. Since my family moved out here from back east, and I followed a few years later, I've been horrified by what passes as a sub in Oregon and infuriated by the places that put out Italian flag colors, say they have "Italian" subs, then hand you something on leftover pizza crust with unshredded lettuce, mayo, mustard, and turkey that you aren't supposed to question or curse at them about (you know who you are). Monkey's faceplants into this trap by saying they do things "old school." As I've learned out here, if something dates back to the '90s and was here when the mall was an airport and the current staff's homes were farmland, it's "old school." In Monkey's case, "old school" dates ALL THE WAY back to 2000 and, for some reason, involves adding mayo and mustard to subs when oil and vinegar already exists on them. Hey buddy, let me clue you in since nobody's been kind enough to tell you for 26 years: The oil and vinegar are already doing the job that you think the mayo's doing. If Jessup McOveralls comes in and tells you your really decent sub rolls are "too dry" without mayo, it means you aren't adding enough oil and vinegar to the equation. Those condiments should not only serve as dressing for the (shredded) lettuce and (sliced) onions and tomatoes, but should soften up the bread a bit and enhance the flavor of the entire sandwich--especially when blessed with a bit of oregano. Monkeys not only blows through that fairly basic recipe, but commits sacrilege aginst its ham, cotto, and provolone by burdening them with mortadella (Italy's answer to bologna) and CHEDDAR cheese. What, did this "Italian" sub make a side trip to Dublin or Wisconsin? Who the hell puts cheddar on an Italian sub and deems that an appropriate use of everyone's time? And because it's Lesser Beaverton (Aloha), there just has to be a version of this "Italian" sandwich that throws turkey and roast beef into the equation. At least we found some use for that mayo/mustard combo. The "old school" subs dispense with the cheese and slather the mayo and mustard on some combination of ham, salami, and pepperoni. Beyond that, the menu is replete with bacon, turkey, tuna, roast beef, french dip and a bunch of other nods to some of the worst sandwich chains this nation has shoved toward Middle America. I give the place two extra stars for the bread and the staff who was pleasant enough (even if they blew through my "no mayo or mustard" request), but Monkey's can leave the "East Coast touch" out of its motto. These are West Coast subs that went though a Midwest wringer, and whoever is comparing them to Jersey Mike's needs to realize that Covid likely knocked out whatever sense of taste or texture they once had.

I had the classic Cobb salad and was amazed from the minute I opened the box. What a beautiful presentation and what an epic serving size of truly beautiful, fresh goodies and the chicken I added was perfect. The dressing was not overpowering and I was baffled at how much I ate. Always looking for new fries and these were the coolest looking fries ever! I don't know how to explain the shape. Sort of a chubby spiral. We were busy talking so the fries got cold- and they were still delicious! I'm a forever fan because that is a special class of French fries, imho. My son loooved The Cure sandwich and truffle fries - wow, so good, and we can't wait to explore more menu items. The couple behind the magic were super welcoming and friendly! - I loved that my food was ready on time and wasn't already camping out in a bag. This really was such an enjoyable and delicious lunch. I think next time we'll stay so we can take back something for later. 5 shiny gold stars!

The Italian has all the meats, pepperoni, ham, salami, on a nice portion of pepperoncinis, lettuce, tomato , pickled onions, olive oil, red wine vinegar on Focaccia bread. Very good portion of meat, amazing taste, loved the pickled onions, you can have it with chips and a drink. I could not put it down, I had to finish every bite. The owner was very friendly and engaging. The sandwich was ready very quickly. I am looking forward to my next sandwich, I am eyeing the Cubano. The food pod has a few benches along the parking lot. The parking lot also has restrooms. Parking is tight. I did not see a way to pre order.

The inside is pretty basic, as is the menu, but they do have specials on the board. They are cash only, so be prepared for that. The lady at the cash register was friendly and prepared to answer any question we had, she even guessed that we would be splitting our sub and offered to put it on separate plates for us. My daughter and I decided to split the large Turkey, Avocado, and Cheese. Each cold sub comes with your choice of White, Wheat, Lettuce, Tomatoes, Cheese, Mayo, Oil & Vinegar & Seasoning. We went with white bread and all the toppings. You definitely want to split the large, it's 4 large pieces, so basically 2 full sized subs at other places. You can tell that they make their own bread, it's delicious. The perfect crust and texture. Our sub was packed to the brim with everything you'd want in a good sub. Everything was fresh and there was a good amount of toppings and meat. I would definitely come back again if we were in the area.

We visited on May 30 and placed an order totaling about $80. Unfortunately, our experience was…read moreextremely disappointing. After waiting more than 30 minutes, we still hadn't received any food or drinks, while customers who ordered after us were already being served. We checked on our order twice because our children were hungry and there seemed to be no progress. We were told there were computer system issues, which we understood, so we continued to wait. Eventually, after more than half an hour with nothing received, we requested a refund. While the restaurant refunded the food charges, they did not refund the tip. That was unacceptable. Not only was our time wasted, but we were essentially charged for service we never received. What made the situation worse was the lack of customer service. The manager's response felt dismissive, and there was no genuine apology or effort to make things right. A brief "sorry about that" at the end came across as an afterthought rather than sincere concern. It's now nearly a week later, and I still have not received a refund for the tip. Person in charge said they cannot refund my tip from the store but it must be corporate. Wrote a little note on my receipt, put it in the drawer and said they will submit a request. I left feeling completely ripped off and unvalued as a customer. The impression I got was that because this location is in Bridgeport and likely has plenty of business, losing a customer simply didn't matter. Mistakes happen, especially during busy periods. What matters is how they're handled. Unfortunately, this experience was handled poorly.

The fries weren't straight out of the fryer, but they were still delicious, and the chocolate shake really rounded out the meal. Thanks for a great experience!
