The sandwich was oozing with sauces and there was a bit of a kick to the sandwich with the added chili oil. The bread was baked really well and crunch but also chewy enough.

That being said you can see the employees working their butts off to pump things out quickly. The sandwich was to die for, but I do have a hard time spending $30 on a take out sandwich. It's definitely something that I would save for a treat. Although a small spot, it's very cutely decorated inside, and there's lots of pantry items to peruse while you wait. The location is on beautiful Baldwin Street so there's lots of space to walk around or sit while you wait or while you eat your sandwich.

It's family-run, and you can really feel the care they put into everything--from the friendly service to the way your food is made fresh right in front of you.

Everything is made with fresh ingredients, and their homemade sauces really stand out. The sandwiches are packed, flavourful, and honestly very satisfying.

2026 Birthday Series -- Stop #4: Jersey Mikes…read more I'm kicking off a series reviewing all the places I visited to redeem my birthday goodies in July 2026. Along with an overall rating, each spot gets scored on redeemability (how easy it is to claim) and actual value. Jersey Mike's Redeemability: 5/5 (requires sign-up up for the news letter) Actual value: 10/5 (A WHOLE SET OF ONE REGULAR SIZE FREE SUB (ANY) and a drink!) WOW! Aside from the fact that Jersey Mike gives out the BEST BIRTHDAY FREEBIES out of all the cafes and restaurants (with absolutely no convoluted process to redeem - the staff were extremely nice and friendly), the sub itself was freaking amazing. I got the big kahuna - the beef was freshly grilled with LOTS OF white American cheese that melts all over, and the delicious grilled vegetables on top. I swear to god, this was perhaps just as good as the Philly steak sandwich I had in Philly if not better (as a birthday present). The store was as also super clean albeit extremely popular, with freshly cut meat and cheese served in an efficient speed. Tho I got a free combo, I also saw that the sandwiches were very reasonably priced - the quality and the price were unbeatable and I'll def come back often. I'd say jersey Mike's is my FAV sub restaurant now, far surpass subway but also firehouse sub which I often found overpriced. Highly, highly recommended.

Love that they have different sizes for you to pick from, so we got their giant size and wow it definitely was gigantic! You can choose your toppings ranging from lettuce, onions, tomatoes, oil, vinegar and spices, and more. Since it was our first time, we got it served the Mike's Way which had everything on it. Next time I think I'll opt out of the Mike's Way, since I didn't love my sandwich doused in vinegar - it also made it pretty soggy pretty quickly. However, the sandwich taste itself was amazing and so fresh! I can't wait to go back to customize another sandwich to my liking!

Both of the sandwiches were fresh and delicious; I loved them both. We finished our meal on a sweet note with "Dolce"; combination of Nutella and pistachio. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

If I'm in a pinch, this is a great option for a quick meal!

On my most recent visit, however, the place was relatively empty, so I leapt at the chance to finally try their wares. After a quick perusal of their menu, I opted for The Number Four ("Provolone; prosciuttini and cappacuolo"), and I asked for it with all the fixins. It's a terrific sandwich. I was expecting something fine along the lines of Subway, but this was actually way above average. The fresh bread was the perfect vehicle for a bunch of perfectly-proportioned components, and that Red Wine Vinegar sauce ties the whole thing together super well. Yeah, I'll be returning to Jersey Mike's in the future. I'm especially curious about their various cheesesteaks.

First off - the food in the menu photographs beautifully. The menu looks SO appetizing! I got the vegetarian grilled panini and it was huge!! It also came with a soup (two options, I got the tomato and sweet potato), so at $14 it was a great value. My colleague got a steak and smoked cheese panini which looked incredible as well, and the toppings and sandwiches were just SO fresh. They don't skimp out on the good stuff either, lots of tasty goat cheese on my sandwich...I'm drooling just remembering it! There is a seating area so you can dine in, or take your food to go. The service was friendly and efficient, you can tell they care about the food they're preparing. One thing I will mention - it's MESSY! Make sure you get napkins!

This review is for their North York location…read more There is no seating at their North York location, so it is more of a grab and go establishment. At the moment, they're only selling their nana special banh mi with us equivalent to a supreme cold cut sandwich for $10 with tax. I wanted to like this place, however the sandwich felt off for me. I did appreciate them toasting the sandwich before serving, however something about their flavour seemed to bother me - it might be a personal preference. My partner said he tasted some coconut flavour in their sandwich, which might be the potential reason I didn't like it as much - I generally don't like coconut flavoured stuff. I also didn't like that they don't accept credit card, especially since they're charging tax. Most Asian operated banh mi places don't charge tax when you pay with cash, it almost seems like they're double dipping.

It's quite a busy plaza so parking can be a bit tricky at the front, consider parking on the side and walking a bit if you're able. Inside was quite clean and calm. All the tables and chairs seemed clean and staff were busy making food. Lots of takeout orders. Decent number of tables and chairs but not a ton. Food: Beef brisket with cheese sub. The meat was flavorful and tender. Mayo and bbq sauces were quite tasty. Toppings like lettuce, cucumber cubes, caramelized onions all tasted fresh. Surprisingly very messy - possibly because of all the melted cheese and sauce. Meatball sub - delicious, tender and flavorful meatballs in a marinara sauce on the sub. As before vegetables were fresh and the bread is soft yet holds up against all the filling. French fries - surprisingly really good. It's a vertical crinkle cut so the ridges are vertical to give it more crispiness. The sauce is great with the French fries! Price: Definitely on the more expensive side of things when it comes to subs but quality and taste are really high. Also feels like the sandwich is pretty big for a medium so definitely getting value overall.
