    Paulie wants a Cracker
    Fox E.

    Paulie over to the side of the road and give these sandwiches a try... they're delicious. One of my fave sandwich shops in Houston, large and good value and makes Subway and other chains taste absolutely awful. More people should give them a try as soon as possible.

    a sandwich wrapped in aluminum foil

    Work team placed an order for pick up - some people got the Reuben, another got their Philly - and I got the grilled chicken pita. It was very good - filled with grilled chicken, potatoes, tomatoes, and pickles inside a pita wrap. Serving size was pretty big and quality was decent! Recommend for lunch!

    The muffing best muffuletta!
    Jeannie K.

    I've been on an effing hunt for a good muffuletta in Houston. What is it, you ask - a hot sandwich of Italian cold cuts grooving in mayo with olive spread. The whole muffuletta is the size of a cross-section of a basketball - it is muffing big. And it is so. Dang. Good in its sharp, chopped-olive glory that I had a small one for lunch and went back for the big one for dinner and then some. It's only $2 in difference but the quantity increase from the smaller sandwich to the full-size thing is by an order of magnitude. Frankly it's too salty for me to eat by itself - I grabbed another baguette from the HEB next door to chow with it. But! The flavors are so amazing that I will be back again and again for this delicious sandwich.

    They have House of Pies

    Let's have a moment of silence for Potbelly and Subway! Paulies Poboys is where it's at. Fast, friendly service with DELICIOUS sandwiches! They offer a goid variety of different sandwiches hot and cold. Very yummy! The bread: I love that the bread is a bit crusty on the outside and soft on the inside. Now, this isn't a thick bread. It's thin so you won't feel super guilty about the carbs or you won't need to scoop the middle out. The sandwich: I was craving meat so I went with the turkey, ham, bacon, and provolone sandwich with mayo. They give you a lot of meat and cheese. The sandwich was a good size. I ate a fourth and it was very filling. The bacon was smoky. Good flavor. The chips: The brand was Dirty and the salt n vinegar chips were tangy and potent. They also carry Zaps and Lays. They offer House of Pies pies. I got a sweet potato pie even though I don't like sweet potato pies. Every now and then I want to see if I will like it if I try another brand but I still don't like it. It was fresh though. I will be back soon.

    Turkey Mufaletta

    The food was good and the service was nice, however I didn't appreciate the staring of me taking my first bite and asking me how is it. Kinda awkward if you ask me... I had no idea who the women was but she was sitting in front of me. She just watched me eat and asked me questions like "How was the first bite? Is it still good? How'd you hear about us? Be honest, on a scale of 1-10 how great is it?" I normally don't mind these things but it was a little disturbing for someone just trying to enjoy their lunch. Maybe asking when I'm through eating, rather than as I'm taking the first bite... Besides all that noise, the turkey mufalleta was good and had good flavors. Just wish the olive salad had more of a tang to it, but that's just a personal preference. Would come back, but I don't like to be bothered and interrogated as I eat. It's awkward.

    I happen to stop by Paulie's Poboys to see how the sandwiches were and also I wanted to try something new too. The one thing I noticed right away was the feeling of a nostalgic sandwich shop with the sandwich board menu, the shelves for pickles and jarred items, and an open area to pick chips and drinks as well. I had to ask first for a suggestion on what would be a good choice. I was told by the manager behind the counter I should go with the supreme, if I was really hungry. I chose that and also the Philly. I am eating the Supreme right now and I can say this is a really good choice for sure. The Supreme has, "Extra imported ham, extra salami, extra provolone cheese, chow chow, mayo, & pickles. Also one thing I really thought was really cool was the art on the wall with the Houston team logos. This was a nice visit and I will definitely stop by again to try more of the selections. On a side note, this is actually my high school friend's family business. I was reminded because of my sister played basketball with her. It was a surprise to me and now I remember from way back. Paulie's also has a location in Bellaire.

    CUBAN POBOY

    I've been on the hunt for a good Cuban for months. I've had Cubans from several different restaurants, most of them from actual Cuban restaurants. I've left disappointed almost every time. Each sandwich was missing something that Cuban sandwiches are "supposed to" have. Fast forward to today. I saw when looking at their menu that they had a Cuban that was right up my alley. I'm not big on mustard only so I usually like some mayo, to break up the "bite" from the mustard. This sandwich was everything. I happy danced while eating it and told my boyfriend I was going to drive back up to the restaurant to give the lady who made my sandwich a hug, COVID be damned. The sandwich couldn't have been more perfect. I will be back, for sure!! Side note: I do LOVE mayo so, that part was great!!

    The guy behind the counter is nice, but this food was terrible. Maybe it was just my food. Hard bread, just overall not very good. I'm forcing myself to eat this right no Thank you to the owner for the response.

    I had the philly hot Poboy combo. It came with a decent sized sandwich a bag of Zappa's chips and i fountain drink. No reflection on the restaurant I'm sure but my bag of chips were way to salty so I had to trash them. (Took my order to go) The sandwich had a nice ratio of bread to meat. There were onions and peppers and should have been topped with crunchy onions but i opted to not have those. The meat was seasoned well and tender. One of the peppers used had more of a tangy taste that I didn't really like. The guy behind the corner was very nice and accommodating. The place was really clean and organized, its a bit of a small space. There is in door seating. I may return to try another sandwich or possibly make adjustments to the philly.

    Cuban

    Came in for lunch on a Friday around 12:30. No customers inside. I was reccomened the Cuban. Tasty, fresh and hot. Chips + drink came out to $14.50 , so a bit pricey but everything now a days is.. inside was very clean and they ladies working the counter were friendly.

    I ordered the Cuban Poboys. it was very good just wish the sandwich was just a little bigger. The do carry some house of pies options for dessert which are very good.

    Straight trash. Sandwich's are light on the meat and heavy on the bread. Save yourself some time and money and go to Jimmy Johns

    I was just passing through downtown Houston when I was looking for a quick snack, and I stumbled…read moreupon this supermarket. what a surprise! The parking was a bit of a challenge, but it was easy enough because it was a calm Tuesday morning. To get from the parking area to the store, you just take the elevator one level down, and then you're right inside. This place is surprisingly big, filled with all kinds of snacks, cookies, and coffee. The highlight for me was their shawarma breakfast wrap. It was top-notch and exactly what I needed. You choose between whole wheat or white pita, and it's filled with scrambled eggs, your choice of fresh or sautéed spinach, and they add potatoes as well. Then they top it with shawarma chicken, tomato, and a delicious sauce. For $8.5 it was worth every bite. Hands down, a five out of five. I also tried their coffee, which was just a standard brew sitting in ice for hours and nothing special. At $2.50, it was fine, but nothing to write home about. The real stars were the cookies. I got a coconut pecan cookie and an almond crunch cookie, and both were absolutely delicious. I didn't have time to explore the whole store, but there was a great selection of fresh produce, chocolates, and all sorts of small treats. Overall, the staff were really friendly, and the entire visit was smooth. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in the area. Five out of five stars!

    My niece and I checked out Phoenicia's for lunch, which was surprisingly delicious…read more My niece has simplistic tastes, so she opted for the chicken burger, which I tried of course. Perfectly seasoned, crispy exterior. The sweet potato fries were equally delicious. I got the Hill Country salad. Same tender but crispy chicken on a bed of greens with berries. So good. Definitely bookmarked as a return option.
