Well it was my first and last time to go to a port of subs. This was my first time to go to any port of subs. I was at first impressed that they slice the meat and cheese but looking at the condiments was another experience. The condiments looked very sad and not fresh. I asked for toasted I never expected that the sandwich would not come out the way it did. The sandwich is closed and they just put in folded and smash it not heated at all. The girl that made the sandwich seemed distracted I was trying to engage with her no one else in the shop but me she was non responsive. I didn't think the shop was up to standards as far as cleansed and I was just in the order area. I think they need to be inspected for cleanliness and other issues. read more

My online order, Pick Up was delicious! They did include tomatoes and I did not request them, but thankfully, that was a happy surprise for me! I did order a second sandwich that was just pepperoni and american cheese the service was quick. The store was very clean and quiet. That surprised me since it was lunch time on a Sunday! read more

I really hate writing poor reviews but the sandwich I just purchased is inedible. I was a regular customer years ago when I worked on that side of town and the owner was always present - the food was always fresh. Today I almost walked out when I saw the veggies which did not look fresh but I figured maybe I was just being picky. Now as I tried to eat my sandwich it's obvious the bread is extremely stale. Whoever took over this location should have continued running it the way it was operated before. I took a few bites and now it's going in the trash. How disappointing. read more

This place is dirty and if a phone order is not picked up the re sale it on the next order. With cheese hard - lots of nasty going on inside. read more

We used to love port of subs so much! Now they put the tiniest amount of meat possible, the toppings are inconsistent, and the bread is so dry :( read more

I basically got a mayonnaise sandwich. Did not get the bread I ordered. The worst ever! So disappointed

Hot pastrami hit the spot. Called ahead- it was ready exactly on time. Order and topping were correct.

9/23/24, I ordered 2 sandwiches and a Potatoe Salad for Monday Night Football via DoorDash tonight. Very good taste ! Another wise decision !! read more

We placed an online order. Both sandwiches barely had meat, too much mayo and the bread was not fresh. Will not be going back.

Ordered two sandwiches, one was vegetarian and they did not ask if I wanted the slicer to be wiped before they sliced the cheese I selected. No big deal, moving through the process I felt very rushed when the entire restaurant was empty including the seating outside. The soda fountain also had strange taste after selecting two different beverages. This is my third or fourth time to this location after Dave sold to a new owner and I will not be returning because of the service and how rushed I felt during each visit. read more

Good sandwiches and great service. I would definitely recommend. They're just consistently good

Was at Port of subs today in Merced and it was noon time and only one employee working,backed up line.Employee handled my food and my money without changing their gloves. Ever since this business assaulted new owners it's gone downhill! I don't believe I'll be going back? read more

Went to restaurant and none of the employees were wearing mask. That could be the owners police....and that's ok, but if you have an employee SNIFFLING they should either not be at work or wear a mask when asked. Yes I asked and he said ...sorry no Well obviously if the policy is not to wear one when asked. I'll give my money to another business . read more

Great sandwiches nice staff I come here sometimes really like their food items and choices and fresh meats. Definitely will eat here again.

Rachel made me an amazing sandwich and it was delicious. Great service. The bathrooms are well maintained. I give my experience 5 stars.

This place has the best sandwiches!! Have been going there from past year. The new owner sunny is really nice. All of the employees have great customer service. Ordered a salami sandwich and it was delicious. Everything was on point! Would recommend to anyone for the best sandwiches in this town. read more

Port of Subs - Sandwiches Near Me - Merced, California

Location is clean inside but staff didn't seem to be very friendly as I don't think they said one word. I let them know I had a mobile order, was given my order and not one word was spoken between either of them but whatever, we all have bad days. The sandwich tasted ok. The bread and lettuce was fresh but I had ordered a hot sub to which was still code and didn't even seem to be toasted. The meat was very thin to the point you couldn't even taste it and I didn't have a lot of veggies added to drown out the taste so I should have definitely been able to taste it. The brownie was fresh and tasty. Last time I ordered, my meal was delicious which is why I picked Port of subs over any other sub sandwich place we have in Merced but it left much to be desired. I'm not sure what changed between 6 months ago to now....but something has changed and not for the better. I felt a bit cheated paying $18 bucks for a sandwich (if you add avocado it's $3 extra) and get very little meat and eat mostly cold bread. I'm not certain I'll be back again and may start venturing away from the once beloved Port of sub. read more

They make a pretty good sub (I like the #10 chicken and provolone). Unfortunately the last two times I placed an order for pickup on their app, the sandwich was not ready at the stated pickup time. In fact, in both instances the staff hadn't even begun to make the sub when I arrived at the time given to me for pickup. In neither instance was the place busy, so I'm guessing staff were just not checking the incoming orders (and if it had been busy, presumably they could have given me a later pickup window). What is the point of having an app if customers are going to have to sit around waiting for their sandwiches to be made anyway? read more

Went yesterday for lunch...had to add more meat to my sandwich after getting home. Disappointing...the meat was in a flat single layer totally not how they used to make it. All I could taste was bread. read more

My favorite sandwich place. Good food, good service, and affordable prices. Would recommend.

Ever since they changed ownership at this location, the sandwiches have been noticeably mediocre. The staff consistently fails to add correct ingredients, both in person and through door dash orders. I would not recommend going to this location. read more

I've never written a food review but this experience was special. I ordered a meatball maranera sandwich and a Ceasar salad. What I got was dry meatballs on bread with a lot of shredded parm and a shredded onion and tomato swimming in cezar dressing. When we took the sandwich back to be remade the new sandwich was soggy and wet and when I bit into it it felt like I had bitten into wet sand and it tasted of pepperocinni, which, is gross considering they don't come on this sandwich. I fear this place is what you see on kitchen nightmares and we will not be good back. So much for trying a new place. read more

First time visiting and I love the sandwiches. They have garlic parmesan bread that is delicious! There were three employees working. One in the back cleaning which I am assuming is the manager, and two making the sandwiches. A male and a female were working on making the sandwiches. The man was rude for no reason and didn't seem like he wanted to be there but the female was nice and was patient with us. The male employee working ruined the experience for me but the female definitely brightened up the mood for my husband and me. I would definitely come back but at a different time. read more

Another town, another Port of Subs. This location just happened to be on my way home from a shift. Not sure if it was just me, but it felt like all eyes were on me for a full 10 seconds: no joke! I was not even greeted when I walked in like I had been when visiting other locations. Then I went to the counter to order. I had seen an employee and what looked like a manager talking in the back. They knew I was there but no one came out to start my order for about 2 minutes. It was only until a crowd of 10 people came in at once that 3 workers came out from the back to start serving. Then, I know they were rushing because of the swarm that came in, but they could have been a little more considerate when handling me and my order. My sandwich looked a little haphazard with ingredients falling out. Overall, my meal was stll delicious, but their customer service needs a refresher course. read more

I went in today to get a quick lunch and service was fast and great! Rachel was very welcoming and attentive to sandwich requests. My sandwich was delicious and I was even prompted by suggestions to add to my meal. The restaurant was clean and the vegetables were fresh. My visit to this restaurant was very pleasant and I would definitely return. Great service is very hard to come by these days but Rachel's customer service was excellent! read more

I was here this past Wednesday and i was greeted by the staff very friendly! Something I didn't experience my first time there , 2 young lady sure helped me out plus the sub was delicious! read more

Oh my god! This is honestly the best sub place ever! I placed a catering order last minute and the staff was super fast with completing the order. The owners were so nice and friendly when I went to go pick up the order. They also gave a complimentary salad tray with my order. Everyone gave so many compliments for the food. It was fresh and delicious. I am very satisfied with their services and will definitely be coming back. The place is always kept very clean and tidy. Love this place and their service! read more

Ever since this location got new owners, it has been going downhill! I went in and the owners did not even greet me and i didn't feel to welcome like i normally would've.Definitely not coming here as much as i used to. read more

very POOR service. do these employees know their own menu? do they know what veggies are? i asked for a #16 which has chicken breast, i was given sliced turkey...? i let the employee know that i wanted chicken breast she continued to make my sandwich and did not care. at the end i asked for spinach, she just closed my sandwich as messy as possible. i asked if she added spinach she said yes and to NO surprise there was no spinach in my sandwich. i was standing right there correcting her and she didn't care! highly disappointed. read more

Owners seem very rude. Didn't interact with me nor my family when going in.

It's still a pandemic and the sandwich preparers aren't wearing face masks... witnessed one sneezing in the raw air with the buffet of sandwich toppings open. The other one was voiding helping the first make orders during what appeared to be a rush. Then saw the second one on her phone while very slowly walking out the trash... is there a manager here? This store is wildly unmanaged. read more

I always go to Port of Subs with a positive experience, but recently went in during an incident with one of the male employees allegedly being inappropriate with middle schoolers. I can't support a business like this anymore unfortunately and will not be coming back. read more

Unfortunately, Port of Subs completely derailed my schedule today. First world struggle, I know. I ordered online (thinking I had cheated Murphy's Law for once), set my pick up time to 1:15p, and arrived at 1:10p or so to find my order had been forgotten about and placed on the side of the register. While the cashiers were politely apologetic and refunded my money (everyone who works there is pleasant) and I truly did understand how busy they were, this experience left me irritated as hell. Moral of my almost delectable narrative: don't order online unless you're ready to have to awkwardly interject an already busy, longish line of hungry customers only to find your sandwich has not even been birthed yet. (Also, I tried the Cheetos Chicken Fries at Burger King today. They were alright. The box they come in is cool.) read more

This review is specific to the catering option Port of Subs offers. I submitted my catering order the morning of the event (roughly 2 hours before I needed it) and was not disappointed! I ordered two platters for a party of approximately 30 people. I ordered the spectacular sub assortment and the wrap tray. I ordered both trays without any condiments because not everyone likes mustard or mayo and I wanted to make sure everyone ate. Also, because the spectacular sub assortment allows you to order up to 4 or 5 different types of sandwiches I was also able to order the vegetarian option for those who do not eat meat. Upon arriving to the store, two employees were prompt at providing me with my order. Not only was the presentation beautiful but they also asked if I needed any condiments, plates, napkins, or anything else. Also with my order they provided me with two containers, one including the shredded lettuce and the other including onions, tomatoes, and pickles (for free!!). They also separated the vegetarian option from the other trays so that there was no confusion and was easily accessible to those wanting that option. The two gentleman also walked out my order and placed it in my vehicle for me. Customer service was on point and they definitely went above and beyond! I received so many compliments on the presentation, quality, and the value of the order! I will definitely be ordering more from this location! read more
