First of all Erica's service was excellent attentive and thoughtful as I was with my 82 year old mother. I loved their new old dinner Ambiance. I have to admit the classic caddy parked right beside me, was cool........ And then the food came Everything was scrumptious even down to the Cuban coffee with toast. Ty Original Sub! read more

Hidden in the corner of a tiny plaza off University Drive. Very surprised to see a courtyard sitting area with a few vintage tables next to a stone fountain producing a tranquil sound as water trickles down near a woven patio swing with a canvas top shade. The walk up window had signs strongly advertising that they serve coffee. The window was not ajar and a few peeks inside with no contact from the four employees on the other side do not sure if the window was actually active for taking orders for thirsty customers. Forced to go inside and glad I did. The entire café was decorated in vintage Cuban-American heritage including a 1950s red Chevrolet transformed into a dining booth with black & white vinyl seat covers. The flooring continued the theme with large black & white squares. Each table had a diecast vintage car in addition to an impressive collection of them on the wall. It was not crowded but hectic at the counter with a few orders but the smell of cooked potatoes on the flat grill was amazing. Ordered a cortadito from the double chrome coffee machine that was ready quickly and sat outside on the patio and enjoyed the strong roasted scent of the Pilon Cuban coffee. The gender neutral bathroom was spotlesd and also had the vintage theme with black & white square flooring. Will return for a sub sandwich on my next visit. read more

I was at the medical supply store when I saw the sign for Sub Cafe. I remember reading Yelp and seeing some reviews and decided to go in. It's fun when you walk in. It's totally a 50's style diner with a cutout of Elvis, and pictures of Marilyn Monroe and the . The booths look like car seats. I liked it! The restaurant is not huge, but they have big booths (7-8) that hold 2-4 people on each side. There was a line before me, about 6 men, and 2 cooks behind the counter. You order and they make it, then ask if you want to eat in or take out. I wanted to eat inside (although there are a few covered tables outside). It's very clean inside and a nice low key atmosphere. The cooks have an established routine. They can toast and grill and do both at once. One of the cooks apologized for the wait, but it was fine. They are both older men but quick and very pleasant. I ordered the ham and cheese with scrambled eggs on Cuban toast and it was delicious! Ham was salty enough to taste it and the Cuban bread was so fresh! It also was way bigger than I thought it would be! I could only finish half - but it was delicious. They serve breakfast all day and also have hamburgers, hotdogs, salads, gyros and few other things. All types of coffee from cuban to American. All in all I definitely would go back. I saw some Yelp reviews that said they had changed and were not very good before, but I disagree. read more

Original Sub Cafe - Muy buen lugar para disfrutar una rica compañía con los mejores sándwiches - Cafes Near Me - Davie, Florida

We've been coming to Subcafe for years! On every other visit, I would give 5 stars, but today, we waited for over 45 minutes for our two sandwiches to be made. Normally, we order our subs to go, but today, we had some free time and the weather was beautiful, so we decided to sit out on the patio. The server was so sweet and took our order shortly after being seated, but then we just waited and waited. I'm not sure what the issue was since it wasn't that busy, but regardless, the sub I ordered (hot zesty Italian) and the double smash burger my husband ordered were amazing. The burger wasn't actually a smash burger, so it ended up being two huge patties, but still delicious. It came with seasoned fries which I also really enjoyed. read more

Original Sub Cafe - Outdoor seating at the iconic sub cafe. - Cafes Near Me - Davie, Florida

An adorable pocket-sized diner that is worth it for the vibe alone. My dad is a regular for the all-day breakfast, but since it was lunchtime I went for the bbq brisket sub. The latter was tasty but greasy; would probably choose something else next time. They were out of coleslaw which did not help, and also the meat pies which we wanted to try were not available. But like I said, it was cute, and the service was amiable. A keeper for me. read more

This has been around for a long time but this is the first time that we've eaten here. There are 2 entrances; the entrance to the right is for dine-in and the entrance to the left is for take out. They also have outdoor seating if you prefer to sit outside which is what we did during our visit. My husband and I split a Philly Cheese Steak #2 which came with Onions, Green Peppers and Mushrooms. We were surprised at how delicious it was and that the bread was so soft! I don't know what seasoning they used but it was very flavorful. We're sad that we've never been here before and have been missing out all these years. We will definitely make this one of our "go to's"! read more

We were looking for a place for lunch and happened upon The Original Sub Cafe. We are happy we did. Service was perfect. Our server was friendly and made sure to ask all questions to make sure our order was perfect. The space is combo take out and sit down. It is clean and has highlight reviews on the ceiling. There is a giant car booth - which while kitch, it takes up a lot of space and if they are busy it can pose a problem. I had a tuna sub and an amazing cafe con leche. The tuna sub was fresh and not mayonnaisey tasting. My cafe con leche was the perfect temp and level of sugar. They offer 3 sizes of the cafe con leche and 2 sizes of the subs. I had the 8 inch and took 1/2 home. My daughter had an egg and cheese sandwich, which she loved and a can of Arizona Iced tea. My husband had a Cuban sandwich. He said it was nicely packed with meat and he ended up taking 1/2 home. We also ordered a side of fries. The pricing is very reasonable. Service was great. Food was great and we will definitely be back. read more

I don't know about the name, The Original Sub Café. This is definitely not a sub shop. It's more like a Cuban Cafè, but with a menu that has a nice amount of options. This is a very cool place. It's awesomely decorated. It's like a throwback late fifties early sixties diner. There is a nice amount of cool memorabilia everywhere, which includes the booths and the table tops. Although it takes up quite a bit of space, there is even a fifty-seven Chevy Belair cut away for a booth. It kind of reminds me of a restaurant in Disney, but with better quality food. Our server, she was great. She had a wonderful personality, she was friendly, really helpful and she made the experience even better. As for what we had. My daughter had an egg sandwich and a giant can of Arizona tea. "She inhaled it!" My wife ordered a café con lettche first, not only was it the largest café con lettche I have ever seen, but she said it was incredibly good! Then she got an eight inch tuna sandwich and a side of fries. Since I don't like tuna, I didn't try it, but she said it was really good. I did have some of the fries. They came out burning hot and were they good. I had a tough time deciding. It was between choosing a Cuban steak sandwich, a Media Noche, or a Cuban sandwich. I ended up going with the Cuban sandwich, which was a choice. I got the twelve inch with extra pickles. At first glance, I thought it wasn't pressed enough. Nope, it was just loaded with meat. Oh yeah, was it good. Next 6 think I'm going to try the Cuban steak sandwich. Oh, I almost forgot, no can soda, they have a soda fountain. They do have can soda available if you want one or some other soda. I'm definitely looking forward to eating here again. read more

You would think a restaurant would be welcoming but I experienced the opposite. I was walking the square with my son and I had some litter in my hand to throw away and upon entering the cafe the mean old man in the store shooed me and my son away saying I need to use the outdoor trash!!! Way to earn potential business guy! read more

Everything in this place can improve. The service wasn't good. They got my order wrong. It was a very simple order of eggs over easy and they couldn't get that right. I would absolutely recommend no one go to this place. It is absolutely terrible. The wrong order cost me $24 for eggs. This is a terrible terrible place to eat.I would absolutely stay away from this place. Make sure they get your order right the first time if not, they will mess it up and charge you. read more

Original Sub Cafe - Stay away from this place - Cafes Near Me - Davie, Florida

Really impressed with this place. It's tucked away in the corner of a strip mall with a few other shops nearby. This place has been around awhile- good sign! The inside of the place is beautifully updated and totally takes you back in time. I love the open kitchen concept so you can see everything being made. They have a little bit of something for everyone, no matter what you're in the mood for they've got you covered. Also the sweetest nicest people work there. Overall, amazing experience (both times I've been there) and will be returning for more yummy food! read more

Original Sub Cafe - Sitting in a car booth with Marilyn Monroe - Cafes Near Me - Davie, Florida

Very interesting sub shop! They were very good about food allergies and gluten allergy which was very surprising for a sub shop.

Came in for breakfast. It's been years since we've been. They have remodeled the restaurant since our last visit. It looks really cool inside. Our server, Julia was wonderful Now, if I'm being completely honest, I did not love our breakfast. I would come back but order something different. I tried their featured breakfast. I figured since it was named after the restaurant it would be amazing but unfortunately it wasn't. I just feel the quality of the eggs, sausage and bacon that I couldn't stomach more than one bite was not good. The people at the tables near us really enjoyed their food. I just think what I ordered wasn't the best I would definitely come back and try something else just based on my past experience, our great server and the other people eating at the restaurants Experience today. read more

Ordered a cuban sandwich and saw a roach inside. I am beyond disgusted and feel like throwing up. DO NOT COME HERE!!!

Like the proverbial tortoise, it took three years for me to get here but I made it! I have always seen signs for this eatery while driving around the Nova Southeastern University area or sitting in line next door at Pollo. Yes today!! This was the day to inch my way there and what a wonderful surprise. The plaza they sit in and the look from afar doesn't do the food justice. They have a tranquil setting for outdoor dining, as well as a "greasy spoon" vibe inside. But, there's nothing "greasy" about their menu. In fact, as their name implies, they are well known for the best subs in the area, but I would say it goes way beyond this zealot zone of foodies. On my first try, happy to see that gyros were offered, that's what I ordered. A very pleasant and personable Osvaldo took my order. It was busy and I could tell by the number of returning customers that greeted him (with one bringing him a bottle of wine, and two ladies identifying themselves from behind their masks as "we are the Atlanta customers"), that this place was worth the wait--even getting back to the office late. Standing in line, I perused the area and immediately the red & white classic car booth came into view. Since I mentioned that I'd soon be late to the office, Ozzie quickly handed me the best gyro I've ever had--particularly because the Greek pita was the freshest and the lamb? Yum!! It was thinly sliced and flavorful. Taking the cappuccino to-go, I vowed to return soon. You'll just have to check them out for yourself. read more

I used to love this place- the new vibe is overpowering and tacky... I'm not sure why they chose a "50's" theme for the place- it needed an upgrade but in comparison it was so cute and peaceful before. Food here was always good! I would still encourage others to go eat but for me it's kind of an eyesore now and I haven't been back because I don't like or relate to the atmosphere. ( This is a personal opinion on the decor- food and coffee is fire.) read more

One of the worst experiences ever. My wife bought 3 subs and fries from them, A cuban and 2 Philly cheesesteaks. She asked for no mayo or tomatoes on the Cuban and asked if they could put it on the side, the cook flat out told her no. After they messed up the order and didnt put mayo or tomato on the Philly cheesteaks and put the mayo and tomato on the cuban and then not giving the fries. When we called they told us to come in and they'd make it right. They only gave us the fries and they were cold and said we should have brought the cuban back. I willl never go back and just go to Laspadas across the street next time read more

Stopped by for breakfast this morning with my boyfriend. We recently moved to the Davie area and were recommended to try Sub Cafe. I was fascinated by their vintage decor and the cool table with the corvette seats. Our server was very nice and they have a large menu offering various breakfast dishes and subs/wraps. The subs looked delicious and I would love to come back and try them. The Cuban toast and pancakes were yummy and the prices are not bad. The coffee was amazing. They also have a little window to order outside to go. Definitely will be coming back regularly for the Cuban coffee and toast. read more

Overpriced sandwiches. Guy who makes them is unwelcoming and terrible customer service. Also, online it says they're open until 6pm on Saturday. Showed up at 3:50pm, they closed the doors in our face and said they "close at 4pm". You're better off going to Laspadas Hoagies across the street, way better sandwiches, prices and customer service! read more

Disappointing vist at SubCafe. Staff hasn't greeted anyone that has walked in during my arrival. Two individuals wait at the register to order that haven't been helped still haven't received service. Staff works with there head down, guessing to avoid eye contact. Staff looks to be busy while only servicing 3 tables and avoid 2 people at the counter. Old man walks in after everyone waiting for service speaks Spanish and received faster service. Informed the manager and was given the one moment while continuing to help the last individual through the door. read more

Disappointing experience. Was up early this morning and decided it would be a nice change to go out for breakfast. I was in the area and remembered a little place that always had great food and service. Cafe window was open, door was open and a man was prepping area outside. I walked in and a man behind the counter looked at me like a deer in headlights saying nothing. I waited a moment and asked, "Are you open?" He looked at me, again with a vacant expression, then at the clock on the wall and said, "No, 8" It was 7:55 so I said' "No problem and sat outside" Someone else walks up and picks up their coffee order at the window. I guess they weren't open, 'for me'. A big part of eating out is the customer service, and I have worked in the service industry all of my life. A warm greeting of, "we are still getting ready and will be open in 5 minutes but if you would like to grab a seat, you will be my first customer of the day. Thank you" and I would have happily waited, feeling my patronage is important. A response of "No, 8" means I am bothering you by being a customer so I'll just go home and make my own coffee and breakfast. I can't comment on food quality since I didn't have any. read more

Friendly service, fresh food, everything tastes great, and the vibe is always exciting here. Highly recommend.

If the Spanish lady is at the cash register she is very racist. I stood there patiently as she was on the phone taking an order. 3 other white /Spanish people came after me and she served them the same thing I just ordered. I have ordered here before and the other cashiers were much more nice and food was good. I have been here since 9am and everyone has been served except me. I will not come back to this restaurant. Very disappointed read more

undoubtedly one of craziest hidden gems of south florida. Prices aren't what they used to be but that goes for every restaurant nowadays. Sandwiches are fresh, real ingredients, real meat in front of you. Service is a quick as it can be. Ambiance is whatever for me because this place is carried by its food, which is absolutely top notch. read more

Food is enjoyable! Atmosphere is quirky and Interesting (like a old school diner type). The coffee is bitter or overly sweet (not consistent). And The reason I leave two stars is because of the customer service. It has not been on just one occasion, unfortunately. My most recent visit has been the worst. The lady taking orders at the time was casually talking to the other staff while I was waiting to give my order, for about 5 minutes. Then I gave my order and went to sit and study. 20 mins passed, I went up to the register and the new employee taking orders had no idea about my order.... He pointed at the lady who was now sitting and on her phone. I ask her, "hi, did you submit my order?" And she shooed me away with her hand and said, go give the other guy you're order i don't know what to tell you." Lol, wild. read more
