FIRST OFF! When asking how do you make your Meatball…read moreSandwich there is 1 correct answer! These guys NAILED IT! I know some of you are uneducated about the quality of a meatball sandwich & that's ok, I'm not judging so do not be offended. To begin... This is a neighborhood place just like back east , nestled in a neighborhood on the corner hidden from the strip mall garbage. When you come here, and you better, do not be distracted by the path to tasty food. It is in an older neighborhood with minimal parking but fantastic personalities, service & FOOD! Upon entry it's a time warp for us who grew up in a time that was better. This is a good Olde Fashion deli that sells great food with amazing service. Franks is a family place. Back to the real topic... Meatball Sandwich; when you ask what is the cheese that use & the owner is educated on quality be states "Provolone on the bottom, Mozzarella on top" just know you're in the right place! The flavor is top notch, added some cherry peppers to spice it up just right, bell peppers & onions are standard. Took it to go, drove about 20 minutes to where I needed to be, the aroma was teasing me, the concern of the sandwich being cold or soggy rang in my mind while driving the 17 to the 10.. I was nervous, anxious & salivating.... Opening the togo container to see the glorious sandwich! The meatballs are still hot, the sauce is holding place & the bread is still bread, not some soggy remnant of dough! Thank you for the pride, quality & tasty sandwich.

My friend and I live in the Surprise area and are hooked on Frank's Deli. We make sure to head to…read moreFrank's once a month. In my previous visits we have had the Meatball, Sausage, and Ruben sandwiches. I was hoping to try the Steak sandwich and was fortunate to get one today. Last time we went to Frank's they didn't have it on the menu that day. It comes with cheese ( I chose Provolone ) , lettuce, tomato, and mustard instead of mayo. The steak is Pork Butt ( a shoulder cut) . I loved it. It was sooo moist, tender, and flavorful. Another sandwich for my repertoire . My friend had a Meatball sandwich. You can't go wrong with that choice. Needless to say he loved his sandwich too. Today we got lucky to get a table to have our lunch. You have to come early for lunch . It gets crowded around 11:30 .

Overall, there were definitely more hits than misses. The deli offers an impressive variety of hot foods. The sandwiches coming out of the kitchen looked fantastic, and there are plenty of pasta dishes and traditional Italian entrées available as well. We didn't order a hot meal on this visit, but we'll definitely be back to try one. The market section is also worth browsing. They carry a wide selection of pastas, sauces, olive oils, canned tomatoes, and other Italian staples. My only suggestion would be to expand the specialty pasta selection with options like squid ink, spinach, or roasted red pepper varieties. Of course, we couldn't leave without visiting the bakery case. We brought home an assortment of Italian cookies, a black and white cookie, a Napoleon, chocolate cannolis, and a brownie. The brownie was the one item that didn't impress us, but everything else was delicious and tasted fresh. One thing to be aware of is parking. The lot is quite small, and both we and several other customers ended up parking across the street. It's not necessarily something the business can control, but it's worth mentioning if you're visiting during a busy time. The fact that this shop has been around for decades says a lot about the quality and loyal customer base they've built over the years. Overall, we had a very good experience and are looking forward to returning to explore more of the deli offerings.

Love the authentic vibe and the people.

Their cannolis are made fresh and they really are amazing! The espresso tastes amazing! One thing that really stands out to me is that this deli/ grocery has been in business for a long time and the owners/employees are so welcoming and make you feel at home! They welcome you with genuine happiness. They have outdoor seating and they offer to go. They do have 2 spots for accessible parking and a few ramps.

However, the two other Jewish deli spots have really gone downhill and Scott's just keeps on delivering great food, hearty portions and fast, awesome service.

The coleslaw was okay but without that flavor punch from the pastrami, the overall sandwich fell a little flat for me. The rye bread was good, but I was hoping for that classic deli rye flavor and texture that really complements a good pastrami sandwich. The pickles were also a disappointment. I'm used to a pickle with that crisp, juicy snap and strong briny flavor, and these were softer and didn't have much of that traditional pickled taste. The fries were also cut very thick, which may be their particular style, but they weren't my favorite. As far as service, my server was meh, At one point I had to get coffee refills from other servers because my server seemed to disappear at times and didn't quite check up on me. It wasn't terrible, but it definitely took away from the overall experience. I will say, I know I may have a higher bar than most when it comes to pastrami. I grew up in LA eating at places like Langer's, Canter's, and Nate 'n Al's, so I'm used to pastrami that has a really distinctive, peppery, savory flavor and those crunchy deli pickles. I'm glad I tried Scott's, and I can understand why people enjoy it. Overall, Scott's did satisfy the craving for pastrami, so in that sense it scratched the itch. But unfortunately, I don't think I'll be back. And im back on the hunt

I Don't Know "What" ALL the Hype is, About This Place. To The Public - BEWARE - For The Price That They Charge You, for An 8" Sub Sandwich - Which Could Cost You $8.00 With Tax. You Are Going To Get Very, Very "Little Meat" On Your Sandwiches - "Paper Thin". (A Hairline - If Your Lucky) The Rest is ALL Going To Be Lettuce. Piles of It. Very Little..Tomatoes. (Maybe 2 - The Most) Jimmy John's is Very Skimpy "On Everything" ! And Their Sub Sandwich Bread is Very Skinny....and Small. We Love Pepperchini's on Our Sandwiches. ALL they had, was Hot Cherry Pepper's. We told the Cashier. We have Never had Hot Cherry Pepper's. Could you put them, On The Side ? (So we could try them). (They might be too Hot for Us). She said, "She Couldn't Do That". Ha. They had to be PUT, INTO Our Sandwich ! Ha. What a Joke. Ha. What is "The Reason" For That ?? Whether There Placed On The Side or in Your Sandwich. What Is The Reason ? Can anybody give me, an answer. Anyway, We Went to Pick-up Our Sandwich. (At The Happy Valley Location in Phoenix, Arizona) Oh My ! The Staff had No Customer Service Skill's. No Smile's, No Thank You. No Nothing. They Just Stared at You. Like They Didn't Want to Be There. They were "All" In Their 20's. You Know, I Blame "The CEO" of Jimmy John's. And The Founder of Jimmy John's. For Allowing ALL Of This, To Happen. For The "High Price's". For Being "Skimpy" on "Everything". No Jalapeno's, No Peppercinni's, No Bell Pepper's, No Pickle's, etc. And For Making The Rule's For What They Are. I Blame "Management" of "Each Location" of Jimmy John's. For Not, Taking "A Look" at "Their Employee's". For HOW, There Treating, "Jimmy John's Customer's". I Mean, Read The Other Review's. All "Other Location's" at Jimmy John's. Have a 2 or 3 Rating. ALL OF THEM. Am I The "Only One" Who Received "Bad Service" At Jimmy John's ? I Will NOT Be Returning To Jimmy John's for A Sandwich. It is Not A Good Sandwich. And Their Customer Service is Terrible. And I Don't Think. That They Are "Going to Last" - "In Business". read more
