This BBQ restaurant DOES NOT TAKE ORDERS ONLINE! I ordered thru GrubHub and drove 25 minutes hoping to get some good food. I was told that the restaurant does not offer online and the owner was out of town and had some one who cannot cook anything that hasn't been pre made. I said okay I will get my money back from GrubHub. I asked what can I get and was told that they can only make me a pulled pork sandwich. I said ok, and for my troubles they said don't worry about paying the 5.00 for the food. The sandwich was so wet from the thin sauce it lacked good BBQ Flavor. I will not comeback for more. CAUTION!!! Do not order online for this restaurant!! read more

My wife and I ordered the mushroom cheesesteaks on DoorDash. What we got was hamburger patties on sub rolls with cheese. No grilled onions and about 6 mushrooms on the side for both subs. We took the subs back to the restaurant which is also called Philly Fresh on DoorDash. The owner was extremely rude to us arguing with us that it was steak and that grilled onions were not on the menu description. He refused to give us a refund and told us to leave the restaurant. We went out to the parking lot and he followed us out still yelling at us. Yelling that if we didn't get out of his parking lot he was going to call the police. Just to inform anyone reading this, we had ordered cheesesteaks from here before and thought they were good. This was our first time there and found the restaurant to be dirty. He is the rudest restaurant owner I have ever met. read more

I was door dashing and I had to pick up an order from this establishment for delivery, it was midnight so I was surprised to see the place was open this late during the week. I walk in and the Mr Jeffrey or whatever his name is , was standing behind the counter . He asked me what I needed , I said "I'm door Dash" he said , "what's the name?" I told him the customers name , and he said "hold on" . So I waited . He started a choking sound , and then proceeded to say something I couldn't hear , so I went to the side counter , I see a bag on the counter and he is is standing there just staring at me. I look at him and ask if the bag is the customers . He clears his throat , says "he can't talk" . I am a little thrown off by the strange interaction , so I ask again just to confirm if the bag was for doordash , as he is standing there just looking at me , very awkwardly .He then says "Yes, now get the HELL out of here." This was a very strange thing to say to someone who's doing a delivery for your company, or anyone for that matter , so I looked at him unsure if he was just goofing around or serious , I then asked him , "I'm sorry... what was that?" He then said "take it and GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE " . If this is how your treat people who come into your store for no reason , it would explain why your place was empty and why the owner is having to work late at night . I couldn't imagine being a staff member to a person this rude . What was the reason for this kind of interaction with a door dash delivery person? I'm just showing up to do a job . Had this been me from 5 years ago I would have thrown the order in your face and told your old , over weight balding ass to deliver the food yourself and keep the attitude as your tip. Learn some respect , we don't earn enough as delivery drivers to be talked to like that . "Get the hell out of here " why? In what way had I deserved that , I spoke 4 words to you , I wasn't rude , I didn't come in being disrespectful. I walked in to provide a service that your establishment uses . I was doing my job and I do it well. This man needs to get his attitude and his issues in check and not talk to anyone as if he is better . If you were better then maybe your reviews would be as well. You can always tell a fake 5 star that a family member or friend writes . It's the one that is posted to either discredit a negative review , or posted immediately after a negative review to keep the facade up. I don't know what your going through or your struggle , but it's not my problem or any one else's . I will be telling everyone not to eat here , as well as leaving this review on multiple platforms . In 3 minutes I was shown that it is possible to ruin your own business . Just follow the guidelines of this rude ass hole . Good luck , someone needs to stay home and retire already .... read more

Slim's BBQ can't be beat. Best tasting, most tender BBQ meats this side of the Mississippi. I chose the "Bill Davis" BBQ sauce among the variety of sauces and it is outstanding! (I understand that Bill Davis is a local legend). Crispy fries served hot, perfect cole slaw. When I found out that Slim's was serving Breakfast, I had to try it. My eggs were masterfully prepared with crispy bacon, delicious home fries and Texas Toast. Fresh Hot Coffee and the price is so low! Do yourself a favor and try this hidden gem for yourself. Bring the family. I guarantee they'll love Slim's BBQ and breakfast of champions. read more

Slims is the best hole in the wall we've found in the tricity area. Cheap, chill, and tastes good. We had 2 tacos, pulled pork sandwich, french fries, cheese steak, homemade lemonade, and a soda for $18. The food was enough to feed 2 people 2 meals each. The atmosphere was a nice hometown feel, and Jeff, the owner, is easy going and friendly. Everything we ate was pretty good. The pulled pork was delicious, fries were scrumptious, and the cheese steak was good. The lemonade and ice teas are actually homemade cooked in the sun. The lemonade is incredibly sour, just right for those who love to squint their faces. Tacos were ok. The pulled pork tasted much better on the sandwich bun than the tacos, but you can't beat $0.50 tacos. We will definitely be returning. read more

Can't say I ate the food, I tried to come here tonight from Daytona. Yelp said it closes at 10, upon arrival I kissed the front door and said goodbye. This place was closed at 9. Since the business owner seems fairly active on his profile, he should edit his business hours. All I did was waist a lot of gas and time. Slims Giant Subs was a giant mistake. read more

First, Mr Jefford C R. of Slim's Giant Subs, you should use spell check and grammar check before posting. I posted what I observed. It's funny that the "drunk friend" as you claim he was, re-entered your fine establishment as we were leaving and your female employee followed him inside with a smirk on her face. You said you would have handled it differently than I did by breaking it up, I guess that was your profound way of questioning my manhood. Well sir, it was not a question of me being afraid, but it was my first time there, with my wife, and we were visiting from out of town. I used my intelligence and left because I was not there to be in the middle of a fight. Another thing I find funny is that you said that you would have broken it up, yet you had your female employee standing in the door so that they would not come back in...hmmm... No disrespect ok. And by your comments, it shows what type of owner you are, but who cares, you are what you are. And as a "yelp guy", I do blame you for the asinine comments that you responded with and it made it even easier for me to decide never to return to your "RESTURAUNT". I hope anyone that goes there do not have the same experience, however, it sounds that it must happen quite often since you claim, falsely, that "fights happen everywhere and when beer and liquor are around it gets worse". Any yelpers that choose to go to Slim's... GOOD LUCK...carry your gun, boxing gloves, knife, fists, etc. because Mr. Jefford CR. expects you to break up any fights that you see and then come in and get some food! But for me and mine...NEVER AGAIN!!!! If I could rate it a negative number, I would. UPDATE: After I posted this, Mr Jefford C R of Slim's Giant Subs continue to carry on like a little boy and still refuse to use spell check. He sent me a message so that no one else could read it. Such a good business man, really knows how to attract new business. This is what he wrote to me. I copied and pasted his message~ "Jefford C R. - Owner - One hour ago Elmer with a name like that I see why your so scared. Good by And good ridence I can't please everyone But stay at home and get some delivery if you can't man up. I give 5 stars for what you did " Very mature business owner I must say. Really, resorting to talking about someone's name LOL. This is what can be expected from JEFFORD. I'm not going to continue to go back and forth with you but if you continue to harass me, I will put it out here so that everyone can see what a jerk you are. UPDATE: 6/28/2016 This is the latest message that JEFFORD the owner of Slim's sent to me because he did not like my review. "Jeff R. Daytona Beach, FL Elmer Stay at home and double lock your doors baby And keep a pillow close by so you can bit that pillow." Ok Jefford R- You really scare me. And I really like the 5 star review you put on your own business, that was funny. And how you put bad reviews on your competition- I think yelp refer it as a conflict of interest- "Conflicts of interest: Your contributions should be unbiased and objective. For example, you shouldn't write reviews of your own business or employer, your friends' or relatives' business, your peers or competitors in your industry, or businesses in your networking group. Business owners should not ask customers to write reviews." Per YELP Jeff R. UPDATE: 6/30/2016 JEFFORD AKA JEFF/JEFF R/JEFF CR- Owner of Slim's Giant Subs continue to send messages to me, now he has resorted to insulting my wife- great publicity. Here is the messages he sent to me- spelling and all- "1). Jeff R. Port Orange, FL Elmer you are as queer as a 3 dollar bill One hour ago 2). Jeff R. Port Orange, FL 57 minutes ago Your queer as a 3 dollar bill I'll pass on Yelp but I'll call you out Elmer pud 3). Jeff R. Port Orange, FL You're Funny 6/30/2016 For your review of: Slim's Giant Subs You new name is Bertha ball breaker 4). Jeff R. Port Orange, FL You're Funny 6/30/2016 For your review of: Slim's Giant Subs How do you like me now I can't believe you Did your wife Steve and you both bite the pillows together" read more

Slims - This is the latest message that JEFFORD the owner of Slim's sent to me because he did not like my review. - Barbeque Near Me - Port Orange, Florida

I don't know where to start...They were still closed an hour after they're supposed to be open...Slims giant subs... More like Slims giant mistake. The doors were locked, and the open sign wasn't even on. We even stopped by to change our money into cash just to go to this restaurant! They even advertised a crab leg buffet on Sunday's! And they're not even open!? Unbelievable! Don't waste your time going here, just stop by a BETTER restaurant like subway. At least their subs are credible and OPEN when they say they are. Yelp really needs to add a half star option, it's a great fit for this place. read more

If you're reading this review, and you're still debating where to go, stop debating. This place is fantastic. I walked in, and the owner Jeff immediately greeted me, and struck up a conversation. In between chatting about our hometowns, and about what kinds of things to do in Florida, he recommended a beef and mushroom sandwich. He asked if I wanted a side, and recommended the fried mushrooms. I ordered both, and he made them from scratch. A few minutes went by, and the food was on the table, paired with an au jus from a crock pot nearby. Let me tell you: The food was incredible. If I wasn't so full now, I'd order it all over again. The fantastic food, coupled with Jeff's extreme personable and hospitable service, makes this visit one of my favorites I've ever made on a trip. If you don't stop here while you're in the area, you're missing out! UPDATE: After talking with Jeff a bit more, I asked if he accepted credit cards (per Yelp's question). He told me that he didn't, and that I could just pay him later if I didn't have cash. I do have cash, but it was an incredibly generous offer! UPDATE 2: I posted my review before paying, but I had to add that once he rang me up, my entire meal came to less than $7.50! I couldn't believe it. Wish he'd pack up and move to Detroit so I could eat here all the time! read more

My favorite place to eat. The owner Jeff is a great guy and knows how to use a smoker for real! Daily specials and great prices! I true hidden gem read more

We ordered mushroom cheesesteaks from here (because the owner also runs Philly Fresh Cheesesteaks from this location). The cheesesteaks consisted of ground beef on hoagie buns with one slice of cheese and 6 slices of barely cooked mushrooms on the side for 2 cheesesteaks. The menu says the mushroom cheesesteaks also come with grilled onions. There were no onions. We brought it back to the owner and he said us was Kobe beef. I said that's fine but cheese steaks are supposed to be thinly sliced beef, not ground beef and cooked into patties (sorry ground Kobe beef cooked into patties). He told me I was crazy and it was the best steak sandwich. I mentioned the lack of grilled onion and barely cooked mushroom and he said it wasn't made with grilled onion. He told me that he knew his menu better than I did so I asked him to look. He did, telling me the entire time that I didn't know what I was talking about and that he didn't want to serve me or have me as a customer. He then got angrier when he realized that his menu DOES say grilled onion. He then yelled at us and told us to leave while calling us names and saying that we wouldn't know good food and should stay at home instead. Said that Kobe beef is the best beef and we should learn how to cook. We left the establishment when he followed us outside and continued to now threaten us. I told him we weren't in his restaurant anymore, so why follow us out to continue to harass us? He said he would call the police for being in the parking lot. We left but figured it would share pictures of what he thought were the "best cheesesteaks ever"! read more

This was the worst food I have ever had!! The business was terrible only 1 person working who didn't even know what the menu was even though they only served 2 items at the time we went as we were told. He then took the bbq pork out of the fridge that was in the lobby in the same place you are to grab a can of soda from that looked to be about a month old!! The meat was so tough and tasted like straight burnt charcoal! I am from Alabama and I know what real bbq is and this is worse than dog food no joke! NEVER WILL GO AGAIN! read more

Wow I have been reading the reviews and cant believe you are going off on people who have writen reviews I can tell you this I will not be going in there . read more

Jeff was a nice guy. But the food was pretty bad, the place was kinda weird and now a few members of our party are having stomach issues.

This place is absolutely amazing! I had an Italian sub. All of the sandwiches are made to order and you can get a short one for about $5 and a longer one for $9 and the longer one can feed two people easily. Piled super high with fresh meats and veggies, it really is an amazing treat. Very little seating inside, and a little bit of a wait for them to make the food for you, but more than worth it. Amazing service and staff! I will absolutely go back to this gem of a place. read more

Loved it! We tried the smoked beef, bbq pork, and the buffalo shrimp small sandwiches! Where has this place been hiding!!!?? read more

Can't believe this guy is still contacting me after one bad review. He is stating the guy who cooked for me has seen me at the bar and wants to slash my tires on a car I don't even Own! Now the guy who cooked for me was pleasant who ever he was . Now to say he has seen me I highly doubt since I dont live in your area and to say you have seen me in a bar,I don't think so I do not go to those and rarely do I drink and saying he wants to slash my tires on my Chevy trail blazer which by the way I have never owned one. (When I came in to your establishment I owned a blue Chevy avalanche) which I no longer own either. He maybe your food has gotten better I don't know. I know my first impression of your place was bad. I know the food business is hard and you are still surviving so good luck to you . You have not nor will you earn my business. Thanks. read more

The food was awesome and delicious. We had the bbq ribs which were falling off the bone! Great portions. Afforadable. The sauces are great too! Jeff, the owner is a great guy. He made us feel like family and took great care of us. Had to write a review. Thank you! read more

One of the hidden gems of Port Orange!! Slims had amazing food, very fresh, and awesome service! Prices were phenomenal for the amount of food you get! I would highly recommend it. We can't wait to try out the awesome brunch deal!! read more

Great food. You never know what will be cooking when you go in there, but just talk to Jeff and he'll steer you towards what's good. My favorite is the rare steak sub loaded with sweet caramelized onions on locally baked bread. The other night, there was some yummy looking meatloaf, perfectly cooked ribs, and something called Spanish gravy over very dirty rice, which turned out to be from an old recipe and was spicy and savory, and delicious. Not nearly enough people know about this local gem over in Commonwealth Plaza, but they should. This is the kind of local owned joint, with homemade great food, at a great price, with an owner who truly cares about the quality of his restaurant and how much the customer enjoys her food. read more

Went to this place for lunch! We had a giant sirloin steak and cheese sub. It was huge! We fed our entire family of five from it. We also had half of an Italian sub which was very good as well. Their prices are great and the service was awesome! They even gave the kids a free slice of pizza because it was going to take about 8 minutes on the steak sub. Everything is made fresh when you order. Our kids thought the frosted mugs for your drinks were great. So when you get hungry for a sub and you don't want that processed turkey in beef juices from those other sub guys, support a local business and give Slim's a try! read more

Wow what a joke this place has become! I admit it's been two years since I've been here but what a complete 180. When I was here first I had great bbq with good sized sides and awesome bbq sauce. Today I walked in and the owner was walking out leaving behind a female worker who had to be verbally prompted to go over the menu, which wasn't hard cause the chalk board had 4 items on it. She did tell me about premade plates. I ordered the pulled pork bbq and beans. I got it to go as I am just recovering from being sick and have very little energy today. I get home to realize totally unlike last time what I got was laughable. I got three small slices of SLICED pork not the pulled pork I ordered. Not a fan of sliced. Also the beans where in a quarter sized container. Maybe a bite and a halfs worth. Then to top it off there was NO BBQ SAUCE at all!!! Wtf? And needless to say I didn't get the free slice of garlic bread I did last time. Now I'm stuck at home, too worn down to go back out with a meal I paid for and can't eat. Thanks. read more

We visited twice at this restaurant during we spent 5 days at Daytona Beach. After searched the Yelp, we stopped by. Loved it, the food taste is good, the owner (Jeff) is so friendly, the price is incredible cheap. The recipe is different with anywhere else, taste is good, the rib, the pork BBQ, the country fried steak on baked potato are all good. We will come back again next visit Daytona, which is the most favorited beach. And we strongly recommend this restaurant our friends. read more

Let me first start off by saying the owners of this place are awesome! They are always friendly and really helpful when it comes to giving recommendations. I went tonight for a rather late night bite and got the country fried steak with Alfredo Ragu. Let me say that again. Alfredo. Ragu. Omg. It was amazing. The steak was fried perfectly..and the Alfredo ragu was perfect. I got fried mushrooms for a side and jalapeno poppers. Both were fantastic. My fiance got a cheese steak with rare bbq beef and it was great. Seasoned great and packed full. Got some homemade lemonade (a must) and it was the perfect compliment and ending to a great meal. Thank you guys for not disappointing tonight! Or any night! read more

The owner, Jeff, explained everything to us, and served us. Super comfortable, great service, and delicious home made food. Our family of 5 stuffed, with two root beer floats on top. $28. You cant go wrong if you stop at this hidden gem. read more

This place is GREAT!!!! Food is fantastic and Jeff is great!! It's a hidden treasure in Port Orange.

The food here is not bad but the owner's attitude is really horrible. Today was the second time I've seen him yelling at a customer. We just left the parking lot without even going in this time. I won't go back. read more

After accidentally discovering it through yelp last night(even though it's maybe two miles from home) my boyfriend and I were too curious not to check it out today. We went mid afternoon, and the place was empty. We were greeted by a very pleasant friend of the owners. Despite his admittance that he'd only been helping a week or so, his service was excellent and the food was delicious. Very simple menu, presentation and delivery. We both are more than we should have.... I'm still full hours later! And we brought some home. Tab was 17 which included pulled pork and Philly sandwiches, piles of potato wedges and a homemade lemonade and soda. We will definitely return! read more

Great food, great service, great prices! The food hit the spot! Pulled pork sandwich & steak both with loaded baked potato. Delivered at midnight after a long day of travel. We will hit this up again before we head back to reality! read more

Outstanding barbecue. Great price. Good value. And Jeff is awesome. Will definitely be a return customer.
