The bread was fresh, the meat was not over cooked and the onions were cooked perfectly. The employees were all friendly and happy, which made me happy. This is a far cry from the crap they serve at Jersey Mike's in Sarasota Florida. Because of Sarasota's poor quality food and poor quality of people working there, I have not been to J Mike's in 4 years. Thanks to Dubuque Iowa Mike's, I can now enjoy the steak and cheese sub I've been missing Thank you Franchisee, for obviously respecting your people, it shows in the quality

I order a #7 frequently, so believe me when I tell you I've never had one quite like this location's. The energy in that place was unmatched and incredibly contagious. In that moment all I wanted to do was drop my plans and join the crew behind the counter. If you hate being happy, avoid this place at all costs, but if you enjoy occasionally dabbling in joy this is the place to be.

The cheese is "processed cheese product" and looks like government rations. The place is tiny with as few booths but somehow it's still dirty - sticky table, unswept, etc. And flies everywhere - like 10+ flies buzzing around you, your food, and the food behind the counter. The bathroom was nasty, person making my sandwich coughing up a lung into my food with no mask on and barely spoke to me during the interaction. On top of that the prices were same as Jersey Mike's which is about 50x better than thise place in all respects. The quality of food this place is using my sub these bulk orders of cheapest ingredients possible means my sub probably cost them 15 cents to make. How they're charging and people are paying like $10 for a sub here? Wild.

It's also located inside of an old bank, so we wanted to check this one out. We were seated immediately and received great service. The waitress was new, but already familiar with the menu. She made recommendations and was very attentive. We started with the pretzel and I can't wait for you to see the photo of how huge this thing is! We all three ate some of it, and there was enough for two people left once we were all done. It's massive! For the entree, I had the chicken quesadillas, my husband had the salmon bowl, and my son had the French dip. The food was all very good and if he chooses Dubuque for college, we will definitely be back!

I thought maybe it was me, but observed her rude to others. This is a restaurant's first chance to set the tone, and she is not doing them any justice. We got a table and ordered drinks. My mom got the loaded Bloody Mary, which she said was delicious. It also was LOADED. Get this for sure! My SIL got the broasted chicken and said it was tasty as well. If you like chicken, it would be worth trying. Sadly I got a Mushroom and Swiss burger and it was fine. I always get burgers well done from a food safety perspective. It was medium at best. We already waited 40 minutes for food so I didn't send it back. The server never came back to ask how our food was either. My niece got a grilled cheese on the kid's menu. It was 90% bread for a 4 year old. Parents don't get this option! It's not worth the money. I know they were busy so trying to be respectful of that. Unfortunately the service was slow, the staff lacking and the food average to below, so go for a drink but choose your food wisely.
