The last 3 times they've at least attempted to rectify their mistake... meaning we had to make a 2nd trip to pick-up whatever it was they forgot.

It seems whoever took the order didn't write it down... wish I could say this was a big surprise! So we were fully willing to pay the difference and make the 2nd trip once again. But because it was near closing that was not made an option... just a sorry and goodbye. So now... after 6pm on Sunday, we are thinking of what 2nd meal we will have to purchase and pick up.... because this plain pasta is just not going to feed the 2 of us.

Both good but very garlic centered, I love garlic so I don't mind but maybe next time I'll get something else to balance it better. Service was good.

It's my absolute favorite breakfast burrito in the area. I get it with eggs over medium- comes with chorizo, potatoes, cheese and bacon. Great portion, amazing texture and the flavor is on point from start to finish. You can actually taste each component instead of everything turning into one salty breakfast blob. Every bite has something going on in the best way. Seasoned perfectly. Chef's kiss. The homemade salsa is fire too. Spicy, flavorful and exactly what the burrito needs. It cuts through the richness, wakes everything up and makes the whole thing even better. Dangerous stuff honestly, because now the burrito feels incomplete without it. I believe they got a mild and hot. Fries were bomb too. I ask for extra seasoning and they come through. The ketchup was also weirdly good, chilled and delicious. Could be Heinz, could be homemade, could be magic. Either way, I want more of it. The vibe's chill and down to earth. The people here are genuinely great imo. Friendly, easygoing and consistent every time I've stopped by. You place your order, they give you a ticket and you pay when it's ready. They also have a fun drink selection, including Calypso drinks and Stewart's root beer in cans and glass bottles. I respect a deli that gives the drink fridge some effort. There's seating when you walk in and more seating in the back area of the deli. Parking can be hit or miss and the spot is easy to pass by, but that breakfast burrito is worth circling the plaza for. I've done it. I'll do it again. Easy recommendation, the consistency of their food and service is on another level. I'm excited for my next haircut.

I have a business around the corner from this particular jimmy johns so we've ordered a lot from them in the past. A couple weeks ago I had a very bad experience with this restaurant over a side of peppers I know seem ridiculous needless to say the manager or managers handled it very poorly. All I wanted was the side I ordered with my delivery and when I called they assured me they would send them right over. This was after waiting almost 45 minutes for my order to be delivered. When the delivery guy showed up I asked why it took so long and he stated they ran out of bread and that they should of called me which they didn't. I said that's fine so I paid him and he left. Then when I notice no peppers and it's clearly printed on the receipt I decided to call and ask if they could please send some over. Well after the first no show I called again and ask to speak to the manager again and they said he or she was off and that she was the new manager that had just came in so I explained everything again and she offered me a free sandwich and she would send it right over with the peppers. I told her she didn't have to send over another sandwich just the peppers. I wasn't looking for a hand out or anything free just my peppers. Well after another hour and no peppers I called and spoke to her and she stated that I told her I didn't want anything and that's why she didn't send me anything. I got frustrated and just said that it was ridiculous and told her I would not be ordering from them anymore and hung up. I emailed the corporate office and they got back to me in a couple days and they said the franchise owner was told about it and that they would call me. Well its been a couple of weeks and no call or even an email from owner guess that where the employees learned it from. All I wanted was my peppers no free sandwich or voucher or anything just my side of peppers. Thanks to poor customer service I will no longer order from jimmy johns read more

I had always been told that Jimmy John's was the best place to get a sandwich/sub so I decided to give it a try. I walked in and I was not greeted, the employee (Emily) asked me if I was ready to order & I smiled told her that I wasn't since it was my first time there and I didn't know what to order. She responded that she would give me more time & never suggested or explained how they work. The way she responded made me feel like I was taking up her time. I assumed that it was like Subway and you tell them what you want as they prepare it. So I told her what type of sub I wanted but I was never asked if I wanted to add anything to my sandwich. I am very disappointed, especially on their customer service. read more

If you want a good, fast, quality sandwich Jimmy Johns is the place for you! Some of the best customer service around. I ordered the Turkey Tom and it was so good! I literally paid and got my sandwich which is perfect as I don't have a lot of time on my break. They have all natural meats no preservatives and you can definitely taste the difference from soggy nasty deli turkey you get at most places. On top of it they deliver. Yes no more pizza when I don't feel like going out to order some food. Thanks Jimmy. Welcome to Downey I'll be back. read more

The whole secret to this place is what time you go and who the crew is that is making the sandwiches. When I go here during the day the sandwich's are 5 star excellent. However I came on a Saturday evening all guys working and the sandwiches were not good. People that evening seemed more interested in talking to each other than making the sandwiches. Had to look outside on the sign to make sure I was at the same place. I recommend you go during the day, your order will be ready sooner and taste better. read more
