I've been there a couple times they were closed when they said they were open on the door then one day they were open. I figured I'd stop for a sub. They had no cold cuts. Why are they call this a sub shop read more

Food so good wish I could get a sub every day. The service is great and the ambiance is amazing. Feels like the steak sub just melts when I bite into it, heavenly. read more

Food always fresh and just so tasty. I got Philly chicken wrap . My husband also got a cheeseburger sub he loves it .

Late night nirvana. The chicken finger sub was great. Thin chicken fingers bathed in buffalo sauce and stacked high on an amazing roll. Exactly what you want, exactly when you need it. Definitely coming back to try the plate, and probably everything else. I can't believe we almost went to pontillos. *shudder* read more

Best philly on the block for sure. Best sammy in the city! Great service. Wish they had longer hours. read more

South Wedge Hots and Subs reminds me of those divey fish-n-chips spots from across the pond. You never think about them when you're retrieving your vehicle from the bar next door in daylight, but they're all you want when you're stumbling in the dark. Nothing here is remarkable except for EVERYTHING after sharing a bottle of fireball with the neighborgood rat that everyone says puts out but, for some reason, just wants to cuddle. I don't remember asking how you like your eggs?!? Get out! Subs and decent Mac salad. 'nuff said. read more

South Wedge Hots and Subs - American Near Me - Rochester, New York

See all

After being pissed off by the horrible service of Mark's Texas hots for the last time, I gave this place a chance and am SO GLAD I DID. I'm a big fan of their Alexander Plate with the cheeseburgers and chicken fingers, fresh toasted bread and delicious slightly spicy meat sauce. The price can be a little higher than other spots but the taste and abundance of food is perfect. The staff behind the counter are pretty laid back and are willing to work with my accommodations and have proven to quickly fix any mistakes. Thanks for catering to my late night munchies! read more

South Wedge Hots and Subs - Plates on plates on plates on plates on chicken fingers. - American Near Me - Rochester, New York

The bread is the star of the sub show at South Wedge Hots. Crispy outside with a fluffy and tasty center. My buffalo chicken tender sub was beautifully toasted. Like many of you reading this, I am a loyal Wegmans chicken tender sub aficionado but I had to give this a try - and I'm glad I did! The "large" is maybe an inch shorter than what you'll get for a Wegs large, but the flavor is comparable if not better (also it's a buck cheaper). You see, the tenders on a Wegs sub have a tendency to slip themselves out of their cocoon of dough forcing the diner to use his/her fingers to sloppily shovel the meat into his/her orifice - can be messy friends. The fried and sauced cock strips at SWHots however are thinner and flatter, allowing them to sit snugly as you unhinge your jaw to consume their tender flesh. Divine. I'll be back for the plate. Stay tuned. read more

South Wedge Hots and Subs - Cross-section of the buffalo chicken tender sub, LTO, blue cheese, pepjack - American Near Me - Rochester, New York

As much as i want to love this place for its late night appeal, I just can't recommend. Still it's a family business (husband and wife man the grill and register), and they deserve a shot from time to time-- like late at night, when you're fairly wasted. The cheeseburger is not at all bad, but most of the food is frozen like a brick when they prepare it. They dump it right on the grill or in the fryer. And it's just discouraging to watch them cook it. I've had mozzarella sticks that were barely warm when I got home with them. if the food were passably good (cheeseburger aside), I'd recommend this place just for the weird black-walled ambiance and grouchy counter service. because they're a Mom and Pop shop, I keep trying. you should too. LOCAL matters. read more

Read the hype here and the garbage plate didn't disappoint. I think it's the best in Rochester--and I've had them all. The couple who runs the joint know how to spice the meat sauce (it's super good); I recommend paying an extra dollar for a double scoop. Better than Dogtown. read more

I stopped by South Wedge Sub and Hots with my friend on our way to an outdoor movie. She promised me that they had great subs - but I told her I wasn't that hungry and didn't end up ordering anything. Smart girl that my friend is, she decided to order a large Chicken Finger Sub thinking that I'd get hungry later. Thank God that she did. I actually ended up getting into the sub before she did, and what greeted me was Submarine Sandwich Bliss. So good! Normally I'm a Dibella's/Wegman's Sub kind of girl - this sub rivaled them. I dare say, I might even prefer it! For starters, their sub is Billy Fuccillo style HUGE. The thing must have weighed a few pounds. The toppings, chicken and roll all fused to make a delicious sandwich. The roll itself was amazing. Nice and soft on the inside, with a chewy crusty outside. Perfect! I wish I could do more justice to the restaurant with my review. The best I can do is to ask you to check it out for yourself. I hope you won't be disappointed! read more

South Wedge Hots and Subs - Chicken finger sub. Very good! - American Near Me - Rochester, New York

the best plate in rochester. Best service. best dedication. FULL PLATE. They always do the absolute best and their selection is perfect. I always get the s clinton plate and it's never disappointed. read more

Visiting Rochester, I am foodie, I have traveled around the world, I am telling you that Cheese steak sub I had was totally LEGIT. Plenty of meat and super cheesy. I wish I had taken a pic, but I was so hungry after the flight. It was so tasty, it was the first thing I thought about when I woke up the next morning.....not even joking. I honestly wanted to eat it again the following day, but I'm too embarrassed to go back 2 days in a row for the same sub! I'm gonna wait a day! read more

I love chicken finger subs. This place missed the mark. It was unbearably hot inside waiting for our food. This is NOT a place where you eat there. The woman had the tv turned up ridiculously loud to where we couldn't hear what she was saying when she was two feet from our face. She seemed annoyed to be bothered by our order. The bread was really good. The chicken finger sub was fine. Really bland and nothing memorable. The chicken tenders and fries plate was super dry. Super. Dry. read more

Was referred here by a friend . Decided to take out after a long day of work . Got the daily special of cheeseburger combo which included fries and a drink for $5.75 Husband got the same thing . We were both a little disappointed . The cheeseburgers were small and very thin and a bit charred . A large amount of fries but the fries were plain tasting and something similiar to a bag of frozen fries from wegmans . They were very dry also . Well it was ok but won't be back read more

Good burgers, huge serving of fries. Perfect place to grab a late night bite. I don't have anything else to add

Was sceptical about getting the chicken finger sub but it ended up being one of the best I've had. The bread alone was super fresh and perfectly toasted. Not to mention the fact that the sub was huge! Will be coming back for sure. read more

South Wedge Hots and Subs - Chicken finger sub w/ buffalo wing sauce - American Near Me - Rochester, New York

I've been coming to this place for a couple of years now and I'm never dissapointed. I usually call in and pick up my food and they always have my food done within 10-15 minutes. They are the only place in Rochester that I've found to do a decent Chicken Finger sub that rivals places like Jim's Steak Out in Buffalo. For some reason I find a lot of Rochester places will not mix the chicken fingers IN the sauce and then bake them. Most of them just give you sauce on the side. South Wedge does it right! I have not had their Plate yet, but I would imagine that it's pretty fantastic, as everything else I've had from them has been great. They also have massive serving sizes. A "small" batch of fries is an extra large any place else, and a large is enough to feed four people. Recently, the city has told them that they can't stay open past 2am due to "too much foot traffic blocking the sidewalk". They have a petition you can sign to have them be approved to stay open later. I encourage you to sign it, as they are places like Mark's across the street and street vendors and McDonald's right down the road that are all open past 2am. I'd like to see these guys get the extra money and be able to serve their amazing food to the masses. read more

Okay, this place was one of those "I'm in the mood for a sub right now!!!" stops. I have never eaten here before but the sign did say Philly Steak Subs here. That was enough for me to try it out.... next time I will check my YELP app before I just dive in. They asked what I would like on the sub and in true "me" style I went with non-traditional toppings. LoL, just had to be a little off center. The sub was actually kind of good. But have you ever had a taste for something and when you got it, there was just he slightest thing that didn't seem right? Halfway through the sub it hit me, the bread!! It was just slightly underdone...is that even possible? You toasted the bread then made the sub but it was still a little gummy for lack of a better word. So I took it home popped it in the oven, yeah we still use those, and it was great. Maybe it was a busy night, maybe it was that time of day or maybe they wanted to go home? I will give it one more try and let you know, but not tonight! Enjoy. read more

I came in for a quick bite and was surprised at how delicious it was. I ordered a hot buffalo chicken sub expecting it to be smaller than it was. I couldn't even finish it. Not only that, but it wasn't too greasy and was very well marinated. Even the lettuce, tomatoes and onions on it were fresh and delicious. These guys do not cut corners, and they make sure every sandwich is well-made. I suggest that anyone in the South Wedge/ Monroe Ave area to stop buy. You won't regret it. read more

Got an amazing buffalo chicken finger sub. Loaded with chicken fingers and cheese. It really was the perfect chicken finger sub. The bread was fresh and not too soft and not too hard. Tons of flavor and tons of toppings. They're open late too. read more

South Wedge Hots and Subs - the kitchen - American Near Me - Rochester, New York

I love it here. Food is always hot and fresh. It's clean too! So many other places I'll get a steak sub and it tastes like dirty fryer grease/dirty griddle and it makes me sick and I can't even eat it. Their portions are excellent too. My subs are always packed, they don't skimp you on meat. Highly recommend! read more

You've got to hand it to the name of this place and Yelp, together they will confuse anyone who's attempting to find it by neighborhood. Anyhow, I've given Hots and Subs three chances with three different orders and have found the food to be Meh each time. I'll try the Cheese Steak next time and if that doesn't knock my socks off, that'll be it for me. I keep trying them because I want to support small, local businesses and I've heard nothing but raves about their food so I'll give them one more chance. 4/17/17 edit to above review: Went back on 4/13 to try the oft recommended Philly Cheese Steak. Confused to find Boss and Country Sweet sauces as ingredient options. Since I wasn't interested in a Rochester Cheese Steak, I decided to pass on the Rochester sauces. Once made I ate most of it and unfortunately found it to be Meh. It wasn't that it was bad. None of their food has ever been bad, it's just ... Meh. The owners are very nice, the food is cooked to order and I wish them lasting success. But I won't be back. read more

game changing product. very filing and sufficient at a great price. both my wife and i are regulars. love the owners and great conversations. read more

I live right down the street and didn't try them out right away, but one day I was in a hurry and just ordered a sandwich, omg, huge amount of deli meat, fresh thick roll. Quick, friendly service, super reasonable cost. Have come back several times and never disappointed. read more

Love it here. Great service and food! Pro tip; get the philly steak with boss sauce, onion, banana peppers and mushrooms (which are 1.00$ extra and no matter how many times I've gone she reminds me every single time ). Their trash plates are also excellent and very late night. Closest rival to dog town. read more

Best subs and garbage plates in town. The price is fair and the portion is gigantic... Been going here for years and still love it till this day.. The owners are great people and the food is unique and delicious.. read more

I didn't get a chance to try their food. I called and asked if they delivered? The response I got was "We don't deliver, we don't take phone orders, walk in only. Thank you goodbye. " They hung up before I could get one other word in. I would have walked in to pick up but he was so rude I didn't bother. I picked up food at another restaurant. read more

Great place with great people.Always nice and everything I've gotten has been excellent.The Philly cheesesteak is awesome!!

Excellent food. Plates are fantastic, subs are equally good. The inside is small so plan for takeout. But the staff is friendly, dedicated, and seem to want to put out a quality product with the aim for repeat customers. Try the philly steak, it's amazing. read more

Try the Philly steak wrap. You won't regret it

I've had a few of the plates and I must say they are delicious. The price points are excellent compared to the competition. I had a hangover today and the Mt. Hope Ave plate took care of that non sense better than any medicine on the market. Highly recommended!! read more

Great no-frills, greasy spoon type of place. Good for grabbing a quick sub.
