My guy... If you are even thinking that you might need a sandwich, this is your place. You can't go wrong with any of the Italians. Everything is fresh and scratch made and the service was absolutely phenomenal! read more

Came on a weekday evening because traffic was so bad coming home from work and I was REALLY craving an Italian sub. So I decided to stop by and get one at Tuccis! let me just start off by saying that they load the subs up!! The portions are huge for about ~$13 a sub so that's a plus. Ordering and checking out was quick and service is no frills but it's nice to see they remember locals orders. I ended up dining in which was partially why my rating is a bit lower. I would recc taking out since there wasn't anyone bussing the tables so it was a bit untidy. I was really excited about the sandwich but the cuts of meat were a bit tough (prosciutto) and I probably should've gotten white bread since the wheat kinda fell apart. I'll have to comeback and try a diff combo. read more

I got a french dip w roasted garlic a while back here & bit into it & got a bunch of bits of what was unmistakably the woody, root part of the garlic head which you're supposed to fucking throw out, not put into the damn food. I ended up throwing the entire sandwich away. Nothing was enjoyable about it. I don't give a shit if i'm the "unlucky" guy who got the bad sandwich. If you're running a goddamned sandwich business there isn't supposed to be a "bad sandwich". Literally went to subway afterwards & got a meatball sub. At least they're consistent & don't put vegetable scraps in my fucking food. I'm still mildly traumatized from the food I got here. That shit was so gross. read more

4.3. I've been wanting to try Tucci's for a long time and I'm happy I finally did. The strip where the joint is located is very gritty and beaten up - I guess that adds to the philly charm. and I can appreciate a no frills restaurant with mineral fiber ceiling tiles that have also seen some sht... However, i do appreciate a place that seems like it's super clean,. Anyway - I had a chicken cheesesteak and it was fantastic! I will def get that sandwich again and want to try others. Might be a little big pricey but I guess if you compare it to Jersey Mikes or Cheba Hut or other sandwich joints, it's not egregious. The dude working the counter was really nice too. read more

What's up with sub places and ceiling tiles? Corralling in Austin to draft a fictitious sports team into existence takes quite the physical toll. TSS was there to tape me up. Our party tried each section of the menu, none being disappointed with what was presented. A personal favorite bite was the Austin Club, but not by a long shot. My favorite trait of this strip mall sando sanctuary was the sweet sounds. When the kitchen is on AUX, the restaurant feels in sync. This isn't your Top 50 playlist, rather a TUCCI MEGAMIX worth the extra decibels. Don't expect a "$" price point or anything extraplantary, but solid solid solid lads - enjoy. read more

Love the sandwiches and service - dont like how they leave phone off the hook sometimes because they are busy and the price of their signature Philly Cheesesteak is at least $8 too much. read more

Food: 4/5 delicious Service: 5/5 quick and fantastic Parking: 5/5 easy and plenty Value: 2/5 Ambiance: 2/5 Pros: Loved my tucci's sub! The whole wheat bread is delicious. The veggies are fresh and leaves a gentle acidic taste that you love on a big sub. This place is identical to the one on the west side. The guy who took our order was friendly. The chips here are also good picks for potato chips. Con: The subs are on the pricier side. We got a 14 in and 7 in and paid $36. I personally wouldn't frequent this spot for the cost but would happily visit once or twice a year to get a better-than-usual deli sub fix! read more

Tucci's Southside Subs - Tucci's sub on wheat - Sandwiches Near Me - Austin, Texas

I've been craving a philly cheesesteak for a few days so I finally decided to give in. But no regular sandwich would do; I wanted something that would transport me back to the city of brotherly love. I've had one from Snarfs, which is close to my house, and I know it's good but I wanted MORE. I recalled Tucci's had great sandwiches even though I haven't been in years. So I went out of my way to go to this place. Walking in, it looks different. More bare. I recall there being a whole display case that held the meats and cheeses. Maybe they got rid of it after COVID. The menu was streamlined which made ordering quick and easy. They had a philly with jalapenos so I got that (full sandwich) sans jalapenos but with everything else. It took about 10-15 minutes. It was a large sandwich and it smelled lovely so I couldn't wait to get it home. Unwrapping it I noticed the bread looked really good. It was sturdy and toasty underneath my fingers. Sadly, that was the highlight of the sandwich. It wasn't a bad but it wasn't what I was expecting. It didn't transport me to Philly. But then I reminded myself I've never been there so WTH WAS I EXPECTING?! First, the meat to bread ratio wasn't good. Although the bread was good (perfectly toasted and buttery) the 3-5 inches at each end of the sandwich was bare, just dry toasty bread. The middle of the sandwich was a bit better but it still wasn't as meat heavy as I would have liked. A shame because the quality of the meat was good. But it had to compete with the abundance of green peppers and biting into a mound of that so often was unpleasant. Even more disappointing was that the onions and mushrooms advertised in the description of the sandwich was at the total opposite end of the spectrum....completely absent. I was also disappointed by the cheese. It was there, in essence almost. Not nearly enough. I recall them advertising they only used Boar's Head Cheese. I didn't see that in the shop today. Maybe that should have been an indication to me about the cheese being used here now. And somehow, the sandwich was dry overall. Sad to say, I'd pass on this. I would have been more satisfied at the other place I referenced earlier. They have a better philly overall and it was cheaper. I don't think going Tucci's for bread that's a bit better but lacking everywhere else is worth the almost $30 price tag. read more

They are supposed t be open til 6. But don't show up after 5:30 because they are putting stuff up and they wont have what you want.

The sandwiches were good, and very filling! The service was quick, and the staff were all very friendly. My only complaint is the price, as I wasn't expecting to pay $45 (after tip) for 2 meals. As someone from CA, this is more expensive than Italian delis I went to out there! read more

The whole sub sandwiches are large... The pastrami was good and the classic Italian too. I would need to try some more sandwiches before deciding if their rating could be higher. My buddy grabbed them and brought back so can't say much about the service or ambiance yet. Until next time.... read more

While visiting out of town we decided to try this place on a Thursday for lunch. The interior is a typical sandwich deli but the sandwiches are not typical. I ordered the 7" club and it was delicious. Loads of meat and I love their garlic mayo. My family members were all pleased with their choices. The young man that took our order was very friendly, patient and helpful (considering it was our first time). read more

The staff at Tucci's Southside subs have kickass attitude. Sez They: We make the best subs in Central Texas, and nobody else comes close. Sez They: You are about to get pure awesomeness. Your world is about to rock. * * * They definitely talk the talk. But they also walk the walk. Tucci's Subs are definitely amazing. Austin frankly is a pretty lame sub town. The best you can get is Jersey Mike's which is just okay. Tucci's totally delivers. Note that they do NOT deliver by just doing an empty imitation of Northeastern Sub Shop conventions. They know how to do an empty imitation. You want a real Northeastern Italian sub? They can give you one. But Tucci's frankly takes the Northeastern Italian sub shop formulas And goes one up. What is the secret? 1) Keep the Italian "hots" that are the essence of top of the line submarine sandwiches. 2) Add garlic mayo. No self respecting Northeasterner would ever ever put mayonnaise on a sub. Their garlic mayo rocks the world. Their garlic mayo changes everything. If you then follow the basic northeastern rules And add industrial quantities of really good meat ... And insist on really fresh really good sub rolls ... And make sure you have both Italian hots and garlic mayo You get an awesome submarine sandwich. Don't just do sit there reading this. Go there and actually order a sub. When the cook says you have entered a universe of submarine sandwich excellence, Believe him. read more

Omguhhhhh you guys, why is this place not viral on all the local influencers' pages?!?! So damn good, you get no pictures of the sammies. Fantastic service from the guys working, great guidance on their best sellers, and daaaaaaaaamn that pastrami was bangin! Quick service time, friendly workers, excellent food... will be back for sure!! Note to future self: white bread was softer than whole grain option. read more

A special shout out to the guy who cut my sub wrong today at Tucci's Southside Subs. At lunchtime my mischievous stomach had a hankering for a hot Italian sausage sub, not just any sub, but a local shop that makes real east coast grinders (the best!) For health reasons I normally don't eat sausage except maybe once a year when I just can't help it! So I ordered a full-size sub online and requested they cut it into 3 portions (for 3 meals). When I arrived to pick it up, the sub was ready but I was sheepishly told that the guy who prepared the sub had cut it half, as he normally does, before he saw that I wanted it in thirds! So he ended up simply cutting it into 4 portions. I was really salivating at this point and just wanted my sub, even if it was in smaller 1/4 portions and I was thinking to myself, "What if I had 2 guests, who would get the extra quarter?!" Silly question; it would be me of course. LOL. However, when I got back home and opened up the sub, what I saw amazed me. Faced with the mistake of cutting it in half, the guy very smartly cut off one third from each of the halves. In total, this amounted to two 1/3 portions and two 1/6 portions. Ingeniously, the smaller two together amounted to a single 1/3 portion which essentially meant I ended up with three equally apportioned meals. Exactly what I wanted!! Hahaha!! I know that some people would have fretted and fumed about the mistaken cuts and would have demanded a newly prepared sub. However, in the end, I like math solutions and was so appreciative about this guy's awareness of his customer's request, and of his creativity in trying to make things right without waste, that I had to smile and give Tucci's Southside two big thumbs up! And of course the hot Italian sub was damned delicious!! Very nice save. read more

Cold subs are my passion, they are my weakness. I had literal mafia family who owned a butcher and "grinder" shop in Connecticut and I'd visit them as an 8 yr old to which they would stuff me full of food. This was the start of my love affair that still runs hot today. Utilizing YELP I've tried many interesting places around town to scratch my itch, but the surfer in me is continues looking for that perfect wave; in this case sub. Located in the Century South shopping center in a safe and easily accessible part of town Tucci's is a modest little shop pumping out good food. So, when my kids visited in July, it was on our hit list. Walking in the place isn't fancy at all, but it's clean. A few modest tables line the walls, nothing special but there again, less to distract the hunter from their prize. Be warned the fountain drinks are Main Root which means they're "like" coke products but not exactly and I'll admit better as they use REAL sugar. They also have a drink fridge with more traditional options as well as tea and monster drinks. Rounding out the sides there are an array of chips choices along with a few sugary treats to compliment the meal. The hallmark of any great subshop is first quality meats and secondly them slice them to order. While a lot of shops now slice their own meats and cheeses, few use Boar's Head. With this info in mind, even before I got there, I knew this would be magical! Next, they do bake their bread so another huge win in my book as most just proof up frozen bread which is devoid of the little touches. Finally, the owner was there and was an extremely friendly guy and genuinely excited to take my order while guiding me through what he thought were the best choices to try as I scanned the menu above his head. As delightful as he was, my benchmark are Italians subs so it was game time. I was debating where to get the Gourmet Italian vs the Classic Italian, the difference being prosciutto being added. I'm not a bacon fan and while prosciutto isn't bacon in that it's not smoked, it has a very intense flavor and will quickly overpower anything it's paired with. I proceeded to order my standard sub - extra mayo, oil, and lettuce with regular amounts of tomato, olives, onions (which are thinly sliced not huge chunks) and Oregano. Two things became apparent off the bat; first the prosciutto dominated the experience which robbed me of tasting the high-quality meats. I'll take the blame here but the second issue I had was the meat on top. As a side note, how ingredients hit the mouth affect flavor; which is why macaroni and spaghetti noodles are made from the same things yet taste different. The meat crushed the veggies so it through off the whole experience. That said the quality of everything on the sandwich were great, just unfamiliar, thus in my opinion, poorly executed. One of kids got the turkey and provolone along with mayo, lettuce and pickles. She loved the bread and ingredients but was like minded in that she hated the presentation. My youngest got the ham and Swiss with mayo, lettuce and tomato. However, she proceeded to crunch Doritos into the sub so I'm considering her well taught yet throwing out her review. Overall, they had the same experience as I did. Overall Tucci's is trying to set themselves apart and I can respect that, however the fact they're using Boar's Head IS the selling point. Throwing meat on top changes the expectation and throw off what we're all accustom to eating. So the way around this is if you're reading my review, you now are prepared. Besides that one issue I'd say they have top notch subs worthy of a top billing. I apologize for not trying a hot sub for a review but it's not my thing. My final thought is if you have a "grinder, torpedo, sub, hoggie, etc." craving this is your go to, just tell them to throw the meat on the bottom and you'll have the best experience in Austin. read more

One solid Italian sandwich! I was searching all over Austin to find a good Italian sandwich, was between two places, and this did not disappoint. I ordered the 14 inch gourmet Italian sandwich which was heavy and big enough for two meals. Bread was fresh and flaky, cold cuts were thinly sliced and generous, peppers were on point and the garlic spread was a nice touch. Service was fast and owner was super friendly. They also gave us samples of their freshly made red bell pepper soup as we waited - also really good. Could not have been happier. Parking was easy and plenty of seating. read more

New favorite sandwich shop south of town, hands down! We arrived late (about 30 min before closing on a Sunday) and the team was still so nice and happy to make us some delicious sandwiches. We got 1 "whole" sandwich (which was quite pricey) because we were hungry. But didn't realize that it'd be SO HUGE that we'd make 3 meals out of 1 sandwich! Also got a half which I still couldn't finish in 1 sitting, even though it was SO flavorful and not as messy as I'd feared from a chicken Parmesan sandwich. We'll be back for many more! Great subs in south austin!! read more

Tucci's Southside Subs - Gourmet Italian (cold) & Jalapeño Philly Cheesesteak (hot) - Sandwiches Near Me - Austin, Texas

This is the best Philly cheesesteak I've had in Austin! I can admit I've been back for more. The meat is so thin and tender and well seasoned,, the cheese pull is like no other, the peppers and jalapeños give it a kick, the bread is soft and it's worth every penny! They do also have colds which are just as good and loaded with toppings. They have a great selection of chips and good drinks. I also love a place where you can pay with your phone. The customer services excellent. Staff is always polite and helpful offering free water while you wait answering any questions and making any adjustments you like to customize your food. Tucci's definitely has a homey, small town deli feel and serves up only the best. Highly recommend, but you will want to return because the food is just that good.! read more

I really wanted to like Tucci's, from the fact there aren't many good sandwich shops around, to the way they represent a bit of "Old Austin", to the way the support local businesses, to the way their staff was friendly. However, my sandwich was simply disappointing. It wasn't bad. It just wasn't worth almost $12 and probably 800 calories. I got the Classic Italian. It wasn't one bit spicy, and this comes from someone who usually can't handle any spice. The bread was limp and the whole thing was dripping in oil. Sad. read more

This place hit the spot for me. Focus was on the food and service. The restaurant was clean, and no fancy frills. There was a sign on the wall by the door inviting you to follow the link or QR code to the current health inspection score. Forgot the number, but it was an A at the time of our visit. Again, focus in the right place. Most importantly, the guy on the register (and all other functions) was super helpful without overdoing any of it. In between transactions he was on to the next thing behind the counter. The other staff knew the operation well, too. Very efficient. It's increasingly rare to have a customer service experience that is so authentic, but we sure had it on our first visit (not last) to Tucci's today. Sandwiches were awesome! read more

Maybe someday. The staff is pleasant and the store was clean too. read more

Great Philly Cheese steak sandwich for lunch today! Service was spot on and ambience inside was exactly how it should be...

The best subs!! We love the Philly Cheesesteak and the Austin Club! Always soooo solid!

Absolutely phenomenal all around! Went for the meatball sub-fantastic. Got it with no alternatives to how they make it and they knocked it out of the park. Loaded with sauce and I loved the extra herbs. I was weary about the onions but it ended up being super flavorful. They recommended the gourmet Italian as well and not going to lie I might have liked that one even better. Absolutely loaded with ingredients. I did change the cheese to pepper Jack, but included everything else and I recommend you do too. I think the garlic mayo/mustard they add was the ideal sauce. Honestly I'd buy that sauce if they sold it in a bottle. Cookies were bomb too, had to grab a few more before we left. Annnnd they have Mexican coke on tap! 10/10! Great service as well! read more

Tucci's Southside Subs - Gourmet Italian. You won't regret getting the full - Sandwiches Near Me - Austin, Texas

Grabbed a spicy Italian sub with my honey! A neighbor of ours just dined here and was raving about it, Jan lived in the northeast for years and was definitely craving a solid italian sub. The menu is adequate and self explanatory. (Detailed description) We decided to split a whole sub and that was huge, lol I was surprised at the amount of meat but Jan says that's the secret to a delicious sub. I didn't think the spicy was "spicy" but more of a mild. Ask for extra peppers if you're into heat. I did like the "tucci's way" of condiments. Very pickley and oniony. Great combo to cut the meatiness. We also got a drink and chips to share. The fountain drinks are Maine root brand and delicious! They also offer some bottled jarritos and Mexican coke if I'm not mistaken. The chips were mostly kettle cooked. Very impressed with the service and ambiance. My partner says this is the real deal. We'll def have to stop by again real soon read more

First time here. We got the Austin full sub, two bags of chips and two drinks and it came out to $33 with tip. We ate in store and started munching as soon as our order was ready. Instantly noticed the meat was a few slices just on top of all the ingredients and the bottom of the sub was already soggy even though we got it toasted. The sogginess continued as we ate. Most of my bites were just lettuce and peppers and ever so often I'd get a bite of meat. The flavor(when there was meat included in my bite) was good and tasted fresh. And the staff is very friendly and the guy at the register was very kind and explained the menu and even told us how the bread is baked. Overall, I'd probably try it again and maybe ask for the sauce on the side? Or none at all? read more

Best meatball sub I've ever had! They make their own marinara in house. I ate it so fast I didn't even snap a picture. Will be back.

I decided to try their meatball sub one more time. The first two times were rather forgettable. Being from the northeast it's offensive for a place to claim they know east coast subs and miss the mark every time. Today, I ordered one without onions (I am allergic) and extra cheese. There were onions in it and no extra cheese and the cheese that was there was stuck to the aluminum foil. They have no clue how to make a real meatball grinder. Furthermore, they were rude on the phone and said I had to bring the sandwich in for a refund - meaning I'd have to drive 15 minutes to see if they correct their mistake. Awful subs. Awful service. I honestly have no idea how they have 4.5 stars. read more
