    Definitely NOT a Chicken taco salad with extra lettuce.
    Jane D.

    This was supposed to be a Chicken taco salad with extra lettuce. It is less than 1/2 full shell with literally only 3 small chicken pieces. I called and they said it was a full scoop of chicken and to check under the toppings. I did... still only 3 pieces. I will choose Pancheros or somewhere else next time. Definitely NOT worth the money or the extremely long wait considering the lobby still isn't open and the drive thru took 26 min! Lesson learned.

    I've never been.it's a hour walk away it should be closer.last time i walked somewhere an hour away i got robbed by a man who spoke in tongue but his stance and body language was fluent in violence. i will never walk anywhere past two miles away now.

    Don't look like a breakfast burrito to me.

    Full disclosure, I have an emotional bias towards this chain. My wife and I would frequent the one…read morein Ames Iowa in college and spend money we made collecting cans. Was a great deal for fast high quantity food. Today's visit went about as well as we could've hoped. We got to try all our old usuals and they were just as good as we remembered! The only real down side was the "shrink flation" of portions, but I'm not surprised given the all the changes that happened over the last 6 years. Oh yeah and one pandemic. Core memory... We got a lot of food to try and sample as much as we could (we usually do on a first visit to a place to see what we like and have more reasons to come back). The churro could've been warmer, but it was a good combination of crunchy and sweet which I was okay with. The burrito taco combo was great, though the spicy green sauce is what sealed the deal for me on it. Fries were 99 cents as a side, couldn't say no! Nice and hot when we got them! Yummy! Chips and queso was also good. Cheese was steaming hot! Quesadilla was massive! We added Pico but think we will ask for it on the side in the future. Breakfast burrito with bacon was as good as we remembered, but like mentioned before not as big. The Pina drink was pleasant. We will likely get it again. Tastes like pineapple! The automated ordering machine was nice in our case since we could look closely at all the options and take our time, but in the future I think I'll stick with talking to a person (which I think is an option for ordering? There is a drive through so for sure there is a way). Food came out promptly with minimal staggering. Our server was pleasant which is a plus these days. It was kinda empty and quiet inside which we don't mind, but if that kind of atmosphere is off putting to you, you have been warned. Though a train going by occasionally does break the silence quite dramatically. Also, the train. Don't forget about it if you are trying to grab a quick bite for lunch! We certainly will come back again for some comfort food and reminder of "good-O'l times"

I have yet to find a more delicious chain sandwich than this order right here. Jersey Mike's truly is A SUB ABOVE! Rating = 9.1/10). Brownie (For a pre-packaged brownie, I was pleasantly surprised with the moist texture and great flavor. Rating = 7.3/10). Service: I had one of the best customer service experiences in recent memory today. I was welcomed in with a smile when I stepped in the door, the order was quick and accurate, and the cashier carried an entire conversation with me as they were preparing my sandwich. Pure class! These are the little things that truly matter to me as a customer, and I knew immediately when I left the store that I would be leaving a 5-star review when I left the building. Hats off to the management, training personnel, and front line workers - your efforts are noticeable! Ambiance: While I did not stay in the store to eat my meal, the tables and floors looked clean and orderly. Overall, I am a huge fan of the Jersey Mike's brand, and it is visits like today that remind me why I have no problem giving the company my business.

Maybe I'll consider it both ;) I've been ordering Jersey Mikes boxes for the past few years of Iowa Hawkeye tailgates and they are a fan favorite. (Honestly, my only qualm is I wish they had an option to cut them in half? As a half sandwich at a time for a tailgate is far easier to do. ) We were in NL for a basketball tournament and needed sustenance. My kids are obsessed, as I mentioned. And my better half is both a Danny DeVito and Italian sub fanatic. I ordered quick via the app-- it was ready for pickup in no time. We never ever have issues at this location with service. Also! I got my first reward from the app! My loyalty points paid off with a free giant sub. Love it.

This Coralville outpost is inside Coral Ridge Mall, right by Target and the carousel, making it an easy stop during a shopping run or post-movie snack craving. Service is typically fast and friendly, true to the brand's reputation. The team runs a tight ship, even during busy lunch rushes. The vibe is casual and family-friendly, with a steady stream of hungry shoppers, toddlers in tow, and teens grabbing nuggets between stores. The only real con? It's mall-only. No drive-thru, no standalone--so if you're hoping to swing by on your way home, you'll have to brave the mall crowd. Also, full transparency: one time, my friends and I did end up with some post-meal stomach drama, but that was once out of many visits--so it may have just been a one-off. Pro tip: mobile order ahead if you're in a rush--it saves time and helps you avoid the lunch hour line that can build fast. Can also order on DoorDash or ubereats as well. Closed on Sundays of course like all Chick Fil As. Great spot for a reliable bite while out and about! Maybe even go to the ice skating rink- probably before would be better on the stomach unless you find some time to rest :)

The ambiance was very nice with a large fish tank and cozy booth seating. Service was excellent--both the host and our waitress were very attentive and welcoming. The food, however, was where things fell short. I ordered the lemon pepper chicken with broccoli casserole and mashed potatoes. My father had chicken tenders, shrimp, and a loaded baked potato. He really enjoyed the potato and tenders, but said the shrimp was a definite skip. My broccoli casserole was extremely bland, the rice bed had uncooked crunchy pieces, and the mashed potatoes were just okay. The chicken itself was decent in flavor but unfortunately undercooked--still pink in the center. I didn't send it back but definitely should have. Overall, the service and atmosphere were great, but the food quality just wasn't there. I'll be skipping Cheddar's in the future.
