My husband and I stopped in after 4x4ing for lunch. This place exceeded our expectations. Owned by a married couple, it was meticulously cleaned and clearly cared for. The menu was extensive and our food was simple and delicious. The sub bread was fluffy and crunchy, everything was made in house. We would 100% return if we weren't visiting. A++++ read more

Stopped in today for first time. Delicious..... Owner seems super nice, friendly, and helpful. Ordered a ham and cheese that way, very tasty sandwich. Loved the bread read more

Best submarine sandwich I have had in a long time. I used to love the Italian subs we made a Papa Gino's when I was a kid. This was as close to that as I have found anywhere. Mary had a Roast beef and cheese and loved it. The subs are made on a hearty baguette and the ingredients were fresh and plentiful. Highly recommend! read more

I grew up where sub sandwiches were not only "invented" but rose to an art form. Big corporate chains didn't stand a chance against some guy in a corner deli who made subs "his way" and his devotees would not accept any other way a sub would or should ever be made. Of course I have my favorite subs but I've always kept an open mind and whenever I visit a sandwich shop or deli I always order a traditional Italian sub made "their way". I've had some great ones and I've had some that are embarrassments to the whole genre. But unless the place simply isn't trying I always give them an A for effort. I do get a little irked however when they try to get away with selling an inferior, or very tiny, sub sandwich for a ridiculously expensive price. So let's talk about the new kids in town, Subslinger. They are obviously not a corporate chain nor do they look like some guy's fantasy of becoming the next Ray Kroc and franchising with 100,000 locations. They look like what they are, the sincere effort of a guy (or guys) who put a lot of thought, labor and love into opening their own store. What you see when you walk in is obviously the work of their own hands, probably working all night and day with saw and hammer in hand. I know, I've been there doing that and the results turned out to be less than "fancy". I'm glad they didn't blow hundreds of thousands of dollars on fancy furnishings, signage and advertising. They are building their business the smart way, and I would so much rather walk in and see the owner right there greeting me and hoping I'll like his place and will tell others about it. Although the "look" of the place doesn't bother me (we'll see if the influx of winter residents are so kind) I have to offer my honest opinion that they are still a little rough around the edges in what I call presentation skill. I had the small Italian sub and it did look like a child's size on the oversize paper plate. My first impression was that it was quite a bit overpriced. I was wrong. Like some of my favorite back-east sub shops they put a lot more meat than veggies in their sandwich. That sandwich that I guessed was too small was much more filling than I thought it would be, with just enough veggies. The bread (which they say they bake themselves) is different than most other sub shops in that it doesn't look like a French roll sliced in half but more like a cup that the ingredients are placed in. Take a close look at the picture I posted and you'll see what I mean. Doing it this way keeps the stuff from falling out while you're eating it. Their homemade macaroni and potato salads (I tried both) truly taste fresh and homemade. They are a little pricey but worth it and to be fair, the per-pound price is probably less than what you would pay in the supermarket for that so-called deli stuff. Yes, these guys are still feeling their way in the classic "crawl, walk, run" manner and I'm not going to nitpick the tiny details I'm giving them 5-star because I want others to give them a chance. I'll bet in a year from now (after a season of winter residents) they will have ironed out all those little nits. read more

Did not disappoint. Went for lunch today we had #1 Italian Sub and #26 Turkey Avocado Cheese. All sandwiches served cold, except meatball. All subs can be toasted. Subs are served "this way" or "that way". Forgive me but I forget which is which. Lettuce, tomatoes and onions. One comes with oil and vinegar the other mustard and mayonnaise. The two guys working the counter rock. They are friendly, polite and funny. I wish I would have taken a picture, unfortunately we inhaled the subs. Go before the secret gets out (the only opened yesterday) they are sure to be packed before long. read more

Yum yum yummy.... I had the number 26 which is the turkey cheese and advocado, stuffed full of meat, cheese and tons of goodies. We also had the 6 which is the meatball sub....omg thank you Subslingers the meatball sub was out of this world. #youguysrocks #1sammichmakers #stuffed read more

Subslingers is, without a single doubt or question, the best sandwich shop in the entire world. The customer service is unmatched, and the subs themselves, TO DIE FOR. I have never eaten a sandwich that has even came within a 1/10th of being as good as theirs. Number 4 add bacon, thank me later. read more

The bread is so fresh, roast beef is freshly sliced, cannot recommend this place enough. Also the small is actually quite large.

Outstanding! I went for the first time today. I had the #1 --Italian sub and had it "This Way". Medium size--I was blown away. Reminds me of great sub sandwich places back in Chicago. The bread was on point--the meat and the vegetables super fresh. It came with a chili sauce on the side--which added a nice zing and pop to the sandwich. I ate half of the sandwich and saving the rest for later. I was looking for a legit sub place---and I found it here. I will be back. Highly recommend!! read more

My favorite sandwich in Apache Junction, maybe the east valley. The bread is fantastic, and the meats are super rich and fresh. Super small shop feels like home, very friendly staff read more

Growing up there was this sub shop in Chicago's Little Italy neighborhood called Grand Daddy's that I always thought was the benchmark for Italian sub sandwiches. Over the years haven't found a sub as good until now. Highly recommended! read more

My husband always judges a sandwich shop off their meatball sandwich. He said it was one of the best he has had. I had the Italian. It was so good. We both got mediums. Neither one of us could finish . We are definitely impressed. We will be coming back for sure. The only bad thing i would say is they closed at 5 on a friday. read more

We love this place! My kids beg to come here. It is a wonderful family owned sub shop that just make dang good sandwiches! Everything is fresh and made to order by a lovely lady behind the glass! We have not ever had anything bad from here! If you are anywhere near this place stop and enjoy! If you aren't near it drive to be near it! We love small local shops and this is a great one to support! read more

This place is phenomenal! The bread is amazing and fresh baked and honestly they should consider selling the rolls (yes, they are that good!) The sandwich meat is top notch but my favorite is the meatball parmigiana sub; the meatballs are amazing as is the sauce which is sweet not acidic. This is a family owned business and the owners are always there and remember your name. I must say, we are truly blessed to have found this place and I hope that you'll give them a try! Greetings from NJ Steven.... read more

Although the prices are a little high I really like the subs at this establishment. The bread that they use and the meats are all top-notch. I am really glad that there is a quality Sub shop in Apache junction. Try it for yourself! read more

Crusty bread, tasty ingredients. Friendly staff. Prices are very reasonable. Took a little while to get our sandwiches.

Had the pleasure of stopping in for lunch today to try out a sub from this new business. The owner Steve said they've been open less than 2 weeks. I ordered a small #1 Italian, This Way (meaning a certain combination of toppings). Wow, what a fabulous sandwich! Generous portions of meat, fresh toppings, tasty cheese, and super-good bread that is made in-house. I loved that the bread wasn't "heavy" and in no way dominated the sandwich, the way the bread does at some other places. The bread to fillings ratio was exactly as it should be. I can't wait to return! read more

I really missed these east coast style subs! Subslingers did not disappoint! They have a large number of subs so you have plenty to choose from. Last but not least you will get very friendly service! Go check them out! read more

Definitely the best sub/sandwich dealer I have been at since Desert Storm. The food there is amazing! I had the number 1 and the sauce that it comes with is delicious. By the time we got home, 11.6 miles ( I tracked the miles to see how close it is because we will be returning often) my daughter had already finished her food and asked if we could go back and get her another delectable sandwich. I obliged. The owners and the counter boy are very nice! I really felt like I had know them for years. I can't wait to go back to experience the kind atmosphere and scrumptious food. Highly recommend to anyone. Also a great place to pick up a few sandwiches and drop off at the local firehouse. read more
