Sub sandwiches and teriyaki rice meals all at one place. Delicious spicy chicken teriyaki!!! Chicken is soft and many and we can order half or full sizes. Huge advantage if you are budgeting. Full size meal is good for two person. My pics are showing Spicy chicken teriyaki (full) $9. Delicious, fresh tasting crunchy veges and large portions. Don't forget to pick up face masks here too for adults and kids for so cheap. Loved the selection. Highly recommend this place!!!! read more

Sub King is a bit out of the way in the industrial area of NW. It's open for lunch service only. They do teriyaki chicken and subs + few other things. I have always got the subs here because they fulfill my craving for a very basic old school sub. Nothing fancy, good bread, good quality ingredients and simple. Don't expect gourmet, just tasty and simple. About $14 for a thick footlong or so read more

The staff here is so friendly!!! We came in for lunch with my grandson and they insisted on giving him his noodles for free and even gave him seconds !! they have sub sandwiches and great stir fry dishes so you can get a little of both cultures. It's outta the way in the Industrial District but they are definitely worth checking out. I love family forward establishments and this is definitely one of my favorites read more

Loved stopping off at Sub King on my way to the beach to grab a quick bite to eat! Sandwiches were packed and tasty, lots of topping options. Staff were all super kind, you can tell it's a family business! Lots of parking, we went around 11 on a weekday and there was a decent rush for lunch, but sandwiches still came out quick! read more

Not only was the food great, but the service was on point! The plate I ordered was so big I had 1/2 for lunch on a Monday and the rest the next day read more

I'm sitting here at Sub King just gorging myself. I ordered a customized Chicken Philly and ohh man it's amazing. The chicken melts in your mouth but the best part of the sandwich is the bread they use, fresh and gourmet. Everything is delicious and well worth a try and I promise you'll have no regrets plus you'll be supporting an awesome family business. Cheers!! read more

Sub King - Customized Chicken Philly. - New American Near Me - Portland, Oregon

The food is not that great! Salad was yellow rotten lettuce and the chicken was raw in the middle. The customer service is bad when you ask ANY questions about the food they get very defensive! I work near by and 11 of us have had some kind of food issue here we all will be waiting for a new restaurant to open soon. I would not take the chance getting sick! read more

Food was great really only thing in the area do they have a captive audience for lunch. Great service. Food is above average

I have been going to this place for lunch since 2010...at some point along the way I always ask for no onions, no tomatoes and would like pickles instead. They charge extra for pickles so I've always felt that if I take off onions and tomatoes I shouldn't be charged for the pickles. I am also a very good tipper because I appreciate them doing this. Well today I was acosted by I guess the manager saying that I do this everytime I come in here. This was probably the 4th or 5th time in 7 years, I don't eat there that often and I don't always get a sandwich...and he's like, yeah, you did this to my parents too...so I'm guilty because I thought it was reasonable to do a 2 for 1 exchange. He said he loses money even though my tip which is usually very generous would more than cover it. I'm certainly not going to tell anyone to not go there. The food is good and usually they are very nice to me. It's not even about the money just fairness. So tomatoes and onions combined is worth less than 4 little sliced pickles and he will go broke if he doesn't charge me is the way he put it. I don't know if he banned me permanantly but he said he doesn't want my business so I will not go there anymore...again, nothing bad to say about the place, just surprised that this guy decided to pick on me on my birthday... read more

A fantastic sub shop that also offers much more. The staff is quick and friendly. Go support this great family owned business! read more

I have visited this location for many years and the quality, value and service is always good. The food at Sub King won't blow your mind, but the sandwiches and teriyaki are all pretty good. I do believe that the white bread option could be better. What they have is fresh bread, but a bit spongy like "Wonder Bread". If you want a decent lunch at a fair price, Sub King is a good option. read more

Went here with a group of friends and we tried many items on the menu, all of which were delicious. I started with the a green curry chicken and rice which was great. We also had their homemade Zuppa Toscana which was equally delicious. We then split several sandwiches which were all great. Additionally, we had an order of there teriyaki chicken which was perfectly cooked. The service was friendly, quick, and efficient. When in the neighborhood I would go there again without hesitation. read more

I went here for lunch after a coworker recommended them to me. I ended up getting a whole veggie sub on wheat. It was pretty tasty, and I liked the addition of cream cheese instead of the usual cheddar or Swiss. They were nice enough to add bell peppers since they ran out of cucumbers. Also, it should be noted that the sandwich was huge. I could've just gotten a half and still would've been perfectly satisfied. For $6 something for the whole sub, it's a pretty awesome deal. I know there's also a Subway nearby, but I'd rather pay the extra dollar and some cents for a better sandwich. Didn't hurt that the people that run this place were super nice! Another place added to my work lunch spots! read more

Ok, so I know why this place is so popular because of 2 things: The location & the sandwiches. Let me explain. The location plays a big component in to why this place is busy. There's not really much around this part of industrial Portland. The options are limited. Admittedly, if I worked in this area, I would probably frequent it quite a bit, because you can only have so much McD's before you want to take a bullet to the head. The second major component for its popularity is the portions. The sandwiches are huge! And for those who work in the area, it takes a large meal to satisfy you with the amount of hard work you're doing daily. This place will definitely take care of that hunger. Here's the thing, if this place were anywhere else in the Portland area, it would more than likely be struggling with the amount of sandwich options that are out there. This place harkens back to another era. An era when we didn't mind processed cheese slices on our sandwiches and we loved bologna. But most of those types of shops are long gone. With sandwiches coming a long way, it was disappointing to me to eat the sandwich. It did however bring me back to my childhood but let's be real, we now know what goes in to processed foods, and I'm not down with eating that. So, if you're looking for a large sandwich reasonably priced, or your out of options in that part of Portland, or you simply want to travel back in time and be reminded of a long gone era, than this place is for you. As for me, I'll be looking for Bunk or Lardo's for my sandwich. read more

Really fast and friendly service, very affordable prices. The sandwich I had was great and I'll definitely be back to try what else they have on the menu! read more

This is my go-to spot for lunch. They have a chicken teriyaki special for $5.99 that is plenty of food, and you can upgrade to a larger size for a few dollars more. They have a rotating lunch special for $7 as well. All their subs and sandwiches are great - my favorites are the hot pastrami and french dip. Fast and friendly service. read more

Very good sub shop that offers much more. Good family owned business worth supporting

For review # 958 I decided to review this place and its tasty, heated pastrami 'wich, in honor of Yelp Legend Chuck B. Chuck left us to join the great review board in the hereafter a little over a year ago, and #958 turned out to be his exit number on El Camino de la Vida. There were few things Chuck loved more--aside from God and She Who Must be Obeyed (patent pending)-- than a great reuben, and when 1,000 island and kraut was not available, a heated pastrami would suffice. Sub King is on a truly desolate stretch of St Helen's road, which was formerly known for the Yankee Pot Roast, the only game for miles in any direction. The Pot Roast is of course long gone, and in its stead is a strip club, and a smattering of mini marts and adult video stores. I guess that's what some people would call retrograded progress, hey Chuck? Bully to Sub King for being the rare, family-friendly venue all along this blasted, industrial strip. The heated pastrami was quite good even w/o the Reubenesque accoutrements. The toasted wheat roll was a fine complement. Sub King also offers Yakisobi noodle dishes, steaming hot, and a variety of Bento plates. You could do a whole lot worse, or have to drive quite a ways, to do appreciably better in this zip code. Miss you much Chuck! Think about you all the time. Rest in peace.... read more

You can find better subs and .All they care about is there money .Didn't have a good customer experience

I want to like this place. Reasonable prices, good sized portions, nice staff, fast service. The bread though. It's not good. It's fresh, but it's just low quality high fructose tasting meh. Sadly it completely ruins every sandwich they have. read more

Guys at work told me about this place, and I've been coming fairly regularly ever since. Really good stuff, especially in the area probably one of the better local places to go. If you work around here or are passing by, come check this place out! read more

Great place to eat. Lots of meat on subs. Everything is very fresh. Restaurant is clean. The restaurant is owned by a family of very nice people. I wish I had come in sooner. They also offer teriyaki chicken and a large assortment of cold drinks. I don't think you will go wrong here. Enjoy! read more

Everything we ordered was beyond delicious . The French dip is amazing as well as the tuna salad. We are from california and visiting the Portland area. Don't let the surrounding area fool you or make you have second thoughts on stopping. The food here beats any food truck or Fancy restaurant. Service is top notch. Ordered a meatball sandwich to go and that looks even better. This is a must go to place;) read more

These guys are super nice, the price to value is fantastic! And food is pretty damn good too! They have daily specials worth checking out like bento and yakisoba. The egg salad w/ bacon is the bomb and the daily soups are great.(my fav is the Thursday beef barley) Sub King completely destroys Sub Way. Besides the awkward decor/atmosphere this place kicks ass! read more

Beats the hell out of subway!!! The admiral has just about everything but the kitchen sink on it, and Tim is boss!

I've been going to Sub King since the owners took it over 17 years ago. My kids grew up eating here as I worked locally. My daughter, in her toddler years, came to know Sub King as "Chicken Rice" because I'd always order my usual "Teriyaki no sauce". Oh....you thought all they did was Sub sands? Oh no! Much more! Tuesdays are Lasagna days! They've always treated my family as though we were part of theirs. After I quit working close by the restaurant a number of years ago, I didn't frequent as often. But now that I have business from time to time at Montgomery Park, it's my goto place for that great lunch before I depart NorthWest. What made me laugh the other day was they remembered all of my various quirks to my high maintenance orders as well as my sons! See you next week!!! It's been a great 17 years of fun treats!!! read more

Great sandwich place. Cheap and fast. I had the Torpedoe....full size. Freaking great. I would wish they had a meatball.

Awesome pastrami sandwich, bulgogi sandwhich and their teriyaki ain't bad either. Good prices and friendly owner.

This was my third visit and I think I'll keep coming back from time to time. The fare in this part of town is very limited

My boyfriend were walking around and saw this place and we loved it! I got the half BLT and it was a huge sandwich! All the ingredients were very fresh, and the cook/cashier had excellent customer service. Definitely would recommend anyone to come here. I will definitely be back the next time I'm in Portland or somewhere else that has a Sub King. read more

This place is rad. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because of its location (no one travels from their home to the industrial district; its mainly a working lunch place), and because the food isn't that particularly difficult or different. That said, this place is awesome; really, really good basic lunch fare. If you're near and are hungry, stop in. read more

Really nice staff. Teriyaki chicken was okay but the French dip was pretty good.

It's just a basic neighborhood sub shop with decent ingredients. The subs are cheap, the staff helpful, and the food served up quick. The subs aren't out of this world, but they're good and a nice alternative to Subway, and they offer some non-sub items as well. read more

This is a former Sub Shop (which I love but are hard to find) even has a similar menu and bread. Great prices. Super bonus: They are open at 10 AM! Torpedo Your Hunger! read more

Pretty good subs in such a random, hole in the wall place. They are always friendly and seem like a pretty clean establishment. I don't have any complaints other than I think they have miracle whip instead of mayo on some of their sandwiches so I just make sure to ask for regular mayo when I order. read more

Great place! I was new to the area, and frankly intimidated by the location - next to a strip club. But I'm glad I gave it a go. There are so few places in the general area where you can get a quick lunch that tastes good, is fresh, and reasonably priced. You get a lot of food for your dollar. The restaurant is clean and always busy. I now have them in my weekly lunch rotation. The family running the shop knows my order as soon as i walk in the door and has it ready sometimes before I'm even done paying. Worth a visit if you are in the NW Industrial Park area and looking for a quick (and good) bite to eat. read more

This place knocks Subway out of the water! The lady who owns it is so sweet and always has a smile on her face. I love going here!

First: the good. Most like your go-to if you're in the NW Industrial area. But after months of trying to like this place, it's official: I don't. I wanted to: locally owned, caters to local crowd. I just can't get a good sandwich: they forget the condiments. Every.time. Even if I request -- even when I itemize - they leave off the mayo, or the sauce, or something else. It's almost funny, but it's really not. They seem to recognize me, but don't value my business enough apparently to care that I would be happy about my food! For $6.00, they can't take an extra 30 seconds to make sure it has condiments? It is repeated back and yet ... once again, dry, lackluster sub, and today half the meat. The worst part is the apathetic - if not hostile - service. I just don't feel good about giving them my money. The woman is always so nice but the man and younger man could not care less. I've been going to Crazy Chicken Bento over on 35th, worth the drive to get food I am happy with, from people who care whether I am happy. read more
