We live a couple blocks away from this place and it was a great find! I had the Philly with peppers and it was great. This is the best philly I have had in Austin. We will be returning!!! read more

My favorite sandwich shop in Austin. They use Boars head meats one of the best deli meats available.I eat there at least once a week.My favorite is the Italian sub. read more

Great hand made constructed sandwiches. Awesome crusty bread and good quality deli meats and cheese (Boars Head)

Always telling it like it is ... First off, although you probably have the pronunciation right, let's make sure ... ladies, it rhymes with your Gucci bag ... fellas, it rhymes with, see that skank over there, she's a hoochie. Onwards ... Ya know how when your visiting your favorite food spots that you usually have one particular dish that you keep hammering? Sure, you want to try some other things ... and you manage to sneak a few bites off of someone else's dish, and once in a blue moon you actually get something else ... but in the end you keep going back to ol' reliable. Hey, that's why you go to that place so much in the first place ... you dig your dish. Tucci's is not like that. You'll walk in the door and although you may have a 'slight favorite' sandwich, you'll wrestle with yourself on what to get today. This wont be because of an 'every thing is just mediocre I don't know what to get Olive Garden kind o way', but rather because you'll quite honestly dig things up and down the menu. Well we need to start somewhere, so let's start with the 'Italian Gourmet'. If I had the chance to roll back time, I'd go back and buy some stock in the Boar's Head meat company. Boy haven't they just infiltrated every good sandwich shop everywhere! All the good meats are on this one including prosciutto, capicolla, black pepper ham, and salami. I think I'm starting to get an unhealthy obsession with salami (that's what she said). I'm new to Austin (9/2010) and one thing I like about most sandwich shops here is they don't need to spew mayonnaise all over my salami (ok Cobra, reel it back a bit). Red wine vinegar is prevalent as a choice instead. If I had one food to pick that has shot farther up my list in me liking it over the last 10 years it would certainly be the red pepper. Here you can do three kinds of peppers: hot-sweet cherry, banana, and jalapeno. When they ask me what kind of pepper I want on my I.G., I just say "yes". Interestingly, they take the last piece of meat and fold it over the vegetables. For some reason, I find that cool. Uh, try the pastrami. Pastrami, sauerkraut, swiss cheese, and spicy mustard: always a Fearsome Foursome (its Super Bowl day, had to work a football reference in there). Get the jalapeno cheesesteak into your mix some time. I got the chicken version, but cheesechicken sandwich just doesn't have a ring to it! One more tip, go off the menu for the Poulatarian (bonus points just for the name). They have it on a piece of paper next to the big menu. Call it an oven roasted chicken and turkey melt on a poppy seed roll. Wow! Check out the menu at southsidesubsaustin dot com. The prices will probably shock a few of you, but the large is definitely a 'two mealer'. Hey if you want cheap and processed crap, why don't you just take the subway over to ... wherever. Long live your Duke! read more

my favorite sandwich in town is located here. chicken cheesesteak, all the way with provolone. amazing. (side note - I wish for a more central/north location, but am willing to make the drive out to the Y for this sandwich a couple of times a month) read more

I go to this place whenever I'm running errands in the area at lunch time. I always get the sub of the day, with chips and a drink for $8.50. Great deal for good quality food prepped by good natured people who seem to love the food they're serving. Can be a bit crowded but i've always been able to get a seat. Definitely one of my favorite spots, especially for lunch. read more

Feeling a little homesick for things that are NY, especially a sandwich, I decided after reading a few yelp reviews that I would finally try Tucci's. Honestly, I was skeptical. It didn't look like much, but I took the leap. I was seriously impressed. I have not had a sandwich like that in months. The hero, yes that's what it will forever be to me, was spot on. The bread actually tasted like home. It brought my stomach back to a place it has not visited in months. Thank you! I will definitely be back again. read more

I had the best veggie sub ever! The bread was fresh and the pickled bell peppers in the sub really made the sandwich! I was in a rush and didn't get a chance to order anything else, but I'll be back. read more

Awesome restaurant, quality products, great soft drinks, friendly service, enough said.

I have been coming here for years, first as Delaware Subs, and now as Tucci's Southside Subs. I can eat a sandwich every day, and these are some of my favorites. The bread is thick and crisp, holding up to the loads of veggies/oil/meats/cheeses on my favorite Italian Sub. Sure the place needs a serious facelift, but I have been saying that for 10 years and keep coming back anyway. Support your local Austin business owner. read more

Tuccis makes a good sandwich. I've eaten at both the Oak Hill and Wm Cannon locations. My only complaint is the decor is just so lacking. I mean Thundercloud is not a really high hurdle. But it feels a whole lot cleaner and put together. Hopefully, Tuccis will do well enough to get some help in the design department. Doesn't have to be fancy. But they could do much better - it appears zero effort has been made. read more

Now that I live way South, even 38th St. Is a bit of a trek for just a sandwich. I've been to Southside before but always had a lukewarm experience. This time the service was really warm and friendly. It doesn't take much skill to make a sandwich, and since the best subs in town IMO all pretty much share the same ingredients it's the service that sets them apart. I don't need a kiss ass or a monkey jumping through hoops to entertain me. Just friendly or nice banter. Thanks for making my day and my Saturday sandwich Southside! I'll be back often. read more

Walked in today and there were 3 employees working. First guy says "give us one second and we will take your order". He disappears to the back then I stand there waiting in line to place my order. About 2 minutes go by and the guy is still in the back, there is a guy cooking and another guy finishing sandwiches on the floor. The phone then rings the kid answers it and takes and order over the phone and puts it in queue to be made. Then he asks me Sir are you waiting to place an order come over to the sandwich counter and I'll take it. He then proceeds to cash out another customer and then a lady walks in gets in line where I was and he takes care of her before he even tries to place my order. So let me get this straight I walk into your sandwich shop to get a sandwich and you tell me to hold on, take an order over the phone, relocate me out of line, then proceed to cash out the customer (understandable) then help another customer that is now standing exactly where I was before you moved me? You don't deserve my hard earned money and that's the biggest problem with South Austin is all the little bullshit businesses have the worst employees. Can't have good food if your employees don't even allow the customer to place an order. Reminded me of being inside of a Mc Donald's. It didn't help the cook had a pair of Jordan's on and probably has never touched a basketball competitively in his life. Typical South Austin Bullshit. I hate being skipped especially multiple times. You don't skip or ignore the person that pays your paycheck. You also don't work in a multi billion dollar corporation and are selling a product that is extremely common. Ill gladly go to one of the other 30 sandwich shops within a 10 mile radius. read more

subway and thundercloud can kick rocks, this is where the real flavor is.

Awesome fresh ingredients, bread grilled to perfection. You can customize your sandwich as it's made fresh on front of you! Tucci, the owner is an active part of the daily grind and is a proud owner, rightfully so! He has a great sub establishment. If I were back in the area again, I'd make a point to stop in. read more

We really like this place. What it lacks in character it makes up for in taste. Great member of SW Austin's lunch options.

I love this place! I usually get the philly cheese steak.. but with chicken. It is reasonably priced and the workers are friendly. Good job guys! read more

This is a really good sub place. I used to like Longhorn subs up near campus, but this place definitely outpaces the other places in town. The meats are not home cooked, but are above average quality. The sandwiches are huge and the bread is fresh and delicious. Lots of topping choices, but let the guy behind the counter make some really good suggestions. Reasonably priced and good people. Highly recommended. read more

Italian subs just like the ones I get back home in Massachusetts, but without the Yankee surliness.

Just started working near "The Y" and was pleased to find such a great sub shop nearby. Their Hot Sausage sub was great, and the other customers were all locals that raved about it, read more

I've been here a dozen times or more. Best sandwich in Austin hands down. Skip the chains and go here. You will find the owner, David, behind the counter making sandwiches himself several times a week. He takes pride in the business and is a financial supporter of Oak Hill Youth Sports. I'm from Chicago originally so I know good food. Tucci's knocks it out of the park with taste, quality, freshness and a welcoming atmosphere. Go here now and try it for yourself! Support this local business. read more

Frist time visit to area. I'm from NE US sub was subpar (pun intended) at best. Bread was weak also. Yes friendly service. Had eggplant special (no sauce) was very dry sub. read more

I absolutely love this shop. Not only is the staff nice, but the food is fresh. The manager, Sarah, always greets customers with a smile. My favorite sandwich, if you can call it that because it is an entire meal, is the grilled portabella. I get the hot and sweet peppers grilled with the portabella and the flavors are out of this world. Tucci's also carries my favorite chips, Zapps. They have the big bags of chips as well so you can share with the family. Don't miss this hot spot. read more

I've tried several sandwiches here, and the worst one was still pretty damn good. I originally tried it because several friends from the Philly area told me it was the best cheesesteak they'd had since they moved here. The hot cap sandwich has become my favorite, but you should try as many as you can. I really haven't had anything I didn't like. read more

The BEST sub! Period. The bread, the meats, the cheeses and the oil and vinegar dressing on that Italian Gourmet sandwich make it one of the top 2 subs I've ever eaten. I live in Dallas and the only sandwich that comes close to this one is at Jimmy's Italian Grocery in E. Dallas. Maybe it's a tie. Anyway, I always time my trips to south Texas so that I can roll into Austin in time for lunch at Tucci's on the Southside. read more

One of the best lunch places in South Austin! Highly recommend the chicken Philly sandwich.

Great subs!! The place could use some updating that would make it a little more appetizing. Once the place matches the food, 5 star sub shop! read more

We had not been here since it was a Delaware Subs store, which closed a few years ago. I was really impressed with the service and the food. The staff was amazing and their salads (sub in a bowl) were awesome. I went two different times and the same girl served us...with a smile and a great attitude. Because of her great energy and good food for a fair price, we decided to make this a regular stop. We just went back again, and had a completely different experience. We called in our order and the young man who answered seemed less than thrilled to take the order. We got there and the salads we ordered were half the size they were the first two times. I asked him about this and he looked at me like I was an idiot and said...this is how we always portion them. I explained again that this is not how they usually make them. I let him know if that is all that they put on their salads, we would not return as customers. He simply said...OK. If this was my business, I would fire that guy in a minute. Your customers are your business and he was not good at managing this situation. I tried to call back to say something to the manager, but nobody was available and there is no email or contact for the owner on the website. read more

We just moved to Austin from Houston, Texas, but have been searching for a good East Coast Italian sub like the ones we have had in frequent trips to Connecticut. We found a decent sub in Houston at Jake's Philly Steaks, but even better, we found it in Austin at Tucci's. A good sub starts with the bread and Tucci's has it. The bread is fresh and crisp but not too crisp and is wonderful. I had the Italian Gourmet Sub and it was packed with great Boar's Head meats. I chose their House made Garlic Mayo as the dressing. Delicious. My husband had the Jalapeno Philly Cheese Steak and said it was better than he has ever had. Again, plenty of meat and cheese and onions and peppers. We topped off our sandwiches with the sweet hot pepper relish that definitely reminded me of the East Coast Italian sub shops. I would put Tucci's up against any sub we had in Connecticut. Also important to me is that the staff was extremely friendly and helpful which you will not find in Connecticut. read more

For anyone who grew up on the east coast (Jersey to Maine) this shop will be very, very familar. Every town up there has it's own local subshop and sometimes two. Tucci's is ecatly the same as those local places. The people are friendly, they only use the best ingredients and take pride in their product. I see a couple of reviews where people say it looks "dirty", well folks, those little shops up north are family owned and they put their money into the product and not into making their shop look like a Mandola's Market. I was a big fan of Jersey Mikes but since I've been to Tucci's it is now THE place for genuine East Coast subs. The Italian has the meats you'd expect in a real italian sub shop and the wonderful soft bread. If there were a Tucci's on every corner I'd weigh about 400 lbs. :) If you're from back East and you want to feel at home or you aren't and you just want a delicious sub you have got to try Tucci's! read more
