I got the Italian on white. Might be the best sub I ever had . There's a lot of sub places out there this one is at least top two.

Great food and great atmosphere to enjoy Kevin was there and made the trip even more exciting Just remember your favorite movie when it is very busy as they call out your order by your favorite movie I had the towering inferno and wife had the chicken salad Definitely will be back again to try a different sub read more

Love this place! The subs are delicious and generously stuffed. I'm not sure what I had, I told him to make me one of his favorites ... I think it was the bada-bing, whichever it was Fantastic! I hate that I forgot which one he said it was because it was amazing, but I'm looking forward to trying them all to figure it out. The owner and staff are all happy to help with any questions or suggestions and all seem very happy to be there. This little gem is located in a large office building in the south point business complex, but super easy to get in and out because it's on outside of the building by main entrance with lots of parking. I'm so happy I stumbled across it while visiting another office in the building. I'll definitely be back and highly recommend this restaurant read more

Tried Hollywood Heroes & Subs and ordered the "Love the Drake" Club Sub, loaded with turkey, bacon, and provolone. As someone who's eaten more sandwiches than I'd like to admit, this one instantly jumped near the top of my list. The turkey was sliced perfectly, the ingredients were fresh, and every bite delivered. If you're sleeping on Hollywood Heroes, you're missing out on one of Jacksonville's underrated sandwich spots. The only real question is why did it take me this long to try? read more

Stopped in for lunch with my sister on Saturday. Service was friendly and entertaining. Got to try The Bear and the Bada Bing. Both were SO GOOD. Cannot wait to return and try more things! Atmosphere is casual and parking is easy on the weekend. I can't say how it is during the week because it is in an office complex but the parking lot is large. You will probably think you're in the wrong place the first time you follow the map, but trust the process and get yourself a very tasty sammich! read more

You need your GPS to find this hidden gem, but it is well worth it! All the excellent reviews I've seen and read were spot on. The moment I walked into Hollywood Subs I was warmly greeted by the owner Kevin. His gratitude for each customer who came in and genuine pride in his food was palpable. There were many sandwiches on the menu that appealed to me. I decided on The "Love the Drake" Club Sub with turkey, bacon, and provolone with lettuce, mayo, & Italian dressing. Every single ingredient was fresh and delicious. The bread was soft with a nice crust and look at how thick that sandwich was! They are on DoorDash for the delivery lovers, but you have to go in-person at least one time to meet Kevin. And find out why the shop has a Hollywood theme! read more

Great sandwich shop. The villians theme gives the place interesting personality. They have a nice selection of hot sauces. My favorite is the Trinidad ones. The bada bing sub was full of meat and flavor. Definitely with the price. Easy to find once you park youe car. read more

This place has been on my "must-try" list since this past summer! After seeing fellow Jax Elite James D's glowing review here on Yelp and a new, fun and quirky Jax foodie share it on Hollywood Hero's Instagram page (@celsjax), I was sold. I literally hopped in the car and drove over. I'm actually really glad we came in for dinner instead of lunch. My boyfriend and I got to chat with Kevin (the owner), who's super conversational and friendly -- we both enjoyed that a lot. I was told lunch can get insanely busy, so going at dinner time was nice. It gave us a chance to get a little one-on-one menu rundown (which subs are the most popular, which ones are Kevin's personal faves, etc.). The shop is tucked slightly off the beaten path, but honestly? I kinda like it that way. It gives it that hidden-gem vibe. I ordered the Towering Inferno, which has "all the hot meats." As someone who loves medium-to-hot spice, this one hit that perfect middle ground -- flavorful with just enough kick without being overwhelming. Even if you enjoy more of a mild spice - you could handle this sub. I picked exactly the sub I thought I'd love... and boy, did I ever. Next time I'll go for the 12-inch instead of the 6 so I can save half for the next day. Prices here are super reasonable, especially for Jax. I grabbed jalapeño kettle chips and a soda from the fridge, while my better half went for a hot 6-inch "Leading Man" sub with Doritos and a Coke Zero. We both loved our subs so much we had to order a third one to split (I know, total BigBacks over here). We tried a cold sub this time -- the Bada Bing -- and it was just as delicious. All three subs were fantastic, but I'm definitely more of a hot sandwich girl, so the Towering Inferno still takes the crown for me. It has its own special sauce -- tangy with a little kick -- that really ties it all together. Can't recommend this place enough. Hidden gem status: confirmed. Kevin is amazing; he's expecting another girl with his lovely wife so please show him some extra love with their new baby on the way this month (November 2025) read more

Wow! I was a first time visitor and chose The Super Hero and I am happy I did. It was fresh and delicious and the bread was soft and perfect! Just the right amount of condiments and toppers. I may have even moaned saying "this is so good" a few times while inhaling it on my lunch break. Thank you, you have definitely earned your walk of fame star! read more

Service - fantastic Food - fabulous Ambience - clean, with cool movie posters. As soon as you enter, you're most likely gonna get a big hello from the owner, who clearly enjoys his work. The second thing you'll notice is that the dining room and kitchen area are both really clean as a whistle and there are all these cool movie posters in the wall. If you look closely, you might see the owner in one of the posters. How did you get the name Hollywood Heroes? Well, the owner lived in Jacksonville and opened up several of the Larry's giant sub locations, then he sold them and moved to LA became an actor for the next 25 years. When it came time to raise his daughter, he decided he wanted to come back to Florida to give her a true southern upbringing. He chose the menu, and it is layered with some phenomenal choices. Plus he will add exactly what you want on it, and because I ate inside and talked to him while he was in a slow spot, he even gave me a free drink. Regardless, you can tell he really enjoys his work and his customers. Well, if you've seen any of my reviews, you know this is a portrait where I describe the food . Since I was dining by myself, I can only give you one item that I tried. Sweet Tea - good, great, made with Southern Charm. Lazer - the sandwich was on the hot side of the menu, and it was fantastic. Layered with ham, turkey, and top with provolone cheese. I also added lettuce and tomato, some mayo and I was in love. Open 10AM mornings till 8:00 in the evenings and the food is affordable, personable and is made by a real live celebrity from LA. I wonder if he's dated Jennifer Aniston? Or hung around with George Clooney? read more

Stopped by here for lunch, great sub and super friendly service, the owner was making subs and was engaging with every customer like they were old friends even people like me who had never been there, I got the drake and would definitely get it again.

Hollywood Heroes and Subs could have easily coasted on the novelty of its celebrity owner. A sandwich shop on Salisbury Road in Jacksonville, owned by actor Kevin Porter, best known as "Lazer" in Dodgeball. You half expect a gimmick. But I'm happy to report, it's not a gimmick at all. The subs are made to order. The bread comes from the beloved Village Bakery, the meats and vegetables sliced fresh each morning. The operation is clean, precise, and refreshingly earnest. I started with the "Lazer," the shop owner's namesake sandwich. A classic ham and turkey sub, melted provolone, ordered "all the way" with lettuce, tomato, onions, mayonnaise, mustard, and a splash of Italian dressing. A sandwich I've made a hundred times at home, but never like this. The bread was perfectly toasted, giving it that golden crust outside and a warm, pillowy interior. Balanced, simple, and exactly right. Maybe it's the ingredients, or maybe it's just that Kevin found the right rhythm between nostalgia and precision. Then came the Towering Inferno, their version of an Italian: pepperoni, Genoa salami, capicola, provolone, also ordered "all the way." This one had a bit more edge, the meats giving a gentle heat that built just enough to register, but never overpowered. The lettuce and tomato stayed cool, crisp, and essential. It is, without exaggeration, one of the better Italian subs I've had in this city. It helps that Kevin Porter is also a generous host. Business was light when I visited, so we sat down and chatted about his time in Hollywood, his Jacksonville roots, and how he ended up back here building sandwiches instead of stunt sequences. He's got the kind of story that makes you lean in. In fact, I enjoyed the conversation so much that Kevin will be my guest on the 100th episode of my podcast, Eat Your Content. If you want to hear the full story, and trust me, you do, make sure you're subscribed. Link in bio. But back to the food. Hollywood Heroes and Subs is not trying to reinvent the sandwich. What it is doing is honoring it, getting the details right, and putting heart behind the counter. That's worth showing up for. 4 out of 5 stars Excellent sandwiches, no gimmicks, just craftsmanship and care. read more

Tasty sub bowl and raider sub. We asked they kindly made a version of the sub bowl not on the menu but hit the spot with shaved beef and melted cheese with the balsamic dressing. Loved the sub bread and flavor combo kicked up a notch with jalapeños on the Raider. read more

This place is located in an office building without big signage so they rely on great food and service which seems to be working. My husband and I stopped in during a slower time (3pm) so we were cheerily welcomed by the owner and sandwich maker Kevin (he was in the movie Dodgeball!). Upon his recommendation we ordered the towering inferno and the chicken salad subs. Both were delicious. The chicken salad was just the way I like it simple and tasty. But to me the bread is what can make or break a sandwich and theirs is ordered daily from a local bakery so it was fresh and spot on. If you're looking for a great sub stop by, you won't be disappointed. read more

This is a little gem tucked away in an office building, so carefully follow their signs. You walk in and they are SO friendly it's amazing. The owner and staff immediately make you feel like you're a regular. I was getting a sub to split to go. I tried the Lazar and it was great. It was warm and loaded with meat & melted cheese. The bread is so delicious. Not heavy, not toasted hard, but just warm & yummy. Truly unique. They cut the sub into 4 pieces and it was definitely plenty for two to split. I can't wait to go back & try something else. read more

Hollywood Heroes and Subs is a sandwich joint I saw recently on Google with a perfect 5-star rating. Gave em a shot today and had one of the best sandwiches I've had in Jacksonville. Nothing really over the top amazing, but just a really freaking good and proper sandwich. For the price of Jersey Mikes, but you get a full 12 inches and an absolutely banger of a sandwich. Will definitely be going in to the lunch rotation!! read more

What an awesome experience! My DH, DS and I decided to visit Hollywood Heroes and Subs on Saturday (Valentine's Day) after my DH brought home a sub from here during the week. This sub shop is charming & spacious, with plenty of tables encouraging an eat-in experience. Kevin, the Owner, was behind the counter and immediately recognized my DH, greeting him like you would a friend. We placed our order up at the counter and grabbed a seat. Side note: super clever way of naming your order while encouraging conversation is the question at the register. Today's was: What's your favorite Rom-Com? Since I was the last to order, we went with mine, which is "You've Got Mail." Drawing from the owner's years of experience in the movie industry in LA, this sparked a lively conversation of movie trivia, which was so fun! Our subs were delivered quickly. We ordered the Bada Bing, the Leading Man and the Godfather. All were delicious, featuring fresh shredded lettuce, tomatoes and onions. The various deli meats on the sandwiches were all of good quality and delicious. My sandwich was The Bada Bing off of the Cold Villians menu. Featuring Ham, Salami, Bologna, Genoa Salami, Pepperoni & Provolone Cheese, this was a brightly flavored sandwich... super savory & exactly what I want when I order a sub. My son ordered The Leading Man off of the Hot Heroes side of the menu. This sub was a little more simple in ingredients featuring Turkey, Roast Beef & Provolone Cheese, but still held its own when it came to flavor. It should be noted that all of the subs were on delightfully fresh rolls and were the perfect pair for our orders. Lastly, my DH ordered The Godfather which had Ham, Salami, Bologna, Genoa Salami & Provolone Cheese elements. Again, delicious, fresh & flavorful! Then, just as we were wrapping up and getting ready to leave, we did hear that some special guest stars were in the shop making cookies... so of course we had to stay and try those! Within minutes, we were presented with a darling display of heart shaped sugar cookies and chocolate chip cookies, and complimentary at that! A wonderful and memorable way to wrap up our first -- but definitely not last!! -- visit to Hollywood Heroes and Subs. HIGHLY recommend! read more

Not going to lie, I put off trying this place because I wasn't sure if it was a gimmick or not. After trying it, I'm upset that I put it off for so long. Wife and I stopped in at 330 on a Monday after getting some Christmas shopping done. Was greeted by Kevin with a huge smile. After a few minutes of conversing, you could tell he was genuine. He was really excited for us to try his sandwiches. His wife was incredibly sweet as well. We got the Bada Bing togo, as we were going to split it. He told us to come back and try it while it's fresh. This dude LOVES sandwiches and has such a lovely family. When we left we left, I told my wife "I don't care if this sandwich is good or not, I'm coming back for that same experience. 20 minute car ride and finally got to eat it. The sandwich was fantastic. The bread was toasted perfectly. Meat to bread ratio was spot on. Wasn't soggy at all after the 20 minute drive. It's right around the corner from the house, and we just found our new sandwich spot. read more

Stopped by on a whim after going to a kids jump park. We're from out of town so just went to the first restaurant on Yelp. Wow, did we make a great choice!

Definitely recommend trying this hidden gem. Can't wait to come back when we visit Florida again. read more

DELICIOUS. If you want a good sandwich, you have to come here. We were all craving a good sub sandwich and this came up with 5 star reviews only; how does that even happen in 2025?! Well I'll tell you- a great owner, and delicious product. We were immediately greeted and told we could even create our own sandwich if nothing on the menu called to us. The menu is great so I didn't even have to think about that. We had a bada bing, a leading man, and a tuna that was toasted (technically off menu)! Everything was so incredibly fresh and honestly the perfect sub sandwich (or hero!). You won't just pass it by most likely, so get the address in your google maps and give them a try for a really wonderful sandwich in a nice clean location with plenty of parking and the most friendly guy behind the counter. The inside has some fun posters and a cool movie theme going on to entertain you while you devour your delicious sub. read more

Skimpy portions on the meat and cheese. The sub rolls are of lesser quality. I won't be back.

Excellent subs and a really fun vibe. The owner, Kevin, really helps create that atmosphere. Seems a nice spot to hang and have a chat with your coworkers or pals. Subs were awesome - loved that mustard, mayo, and Italian that came with ours. Never make reviews, but really wanted to afterwards. read more

Stopped in for the first time intrigued by the Hollywood Theme and descriptions on their website. Also prompted by the excellent reviews. This place did not disappoint. Very fresh ingredients, delicious bread, meats and cheese. I had the Raider which is roast beef and cheese, simple yet delicious. The owner was very friendly and obviously takes great pride in what he does. The posters and decor add a cool touch to the ambience. There are a few small tables outside too if you prefer to dine outdoors. Highly recommend will be back. read more

Highly recommend this place. The subs are absolutely amazing and the service is even better. Kevin is so outgoing and considerate and appreciative which adds to the experience. As I've said in other reviews, the fact that they use Village Bread already gives them the advantage which might possibly be the best sub bread I've ever had. Sorry for no pictures: maybe next time. read more

I came to Florida from California 6 years ago, and California is not so friendly to live but the food is awesome. When I found this place after 6 years of living here, I finally found a place that is good as the subs that I had in California. I ordered a foot long nada bing, and I got to tell you, it's the best sub I've had since I moved out of California. I can't wait til I try the other subs that they have. I drove 9 miles and I will do it again and again and try all the subs they have. I highly recommend this place to anyone who appreciates good subs. Lastly, the staff is so friendly, I couldn't help leave the highest tip for the staff. Eat well my friends! I don't have any pictures because I devoured the whole sub within minutes. Haha sorry. read more
