Primo Hoagies

I would give this a 5 but delivery is rough. I have always picked up which seems the way to go. I called at like 1120am and got my two sandwiches at 1250pm. I snapped on the delivery guy but he was right, its a Promos problem. DO NOT GET IT DELIVERED IF YOU CAN HELP IT.

My coworker steered me into a cab to go to this hole in the wall on Ritner. There’s no way I’d brave the narrow, car-​lined streets to drive here either so you’re already in about $ 18 for a cab ride if you’re not a native and stay at a hotel near the airport. The hoagies (wasn’t really clear on what a hoagie was either before my visit here) are so over the top good that you may want to base your hotel choice on its proximity to this place so you’re not subjected to hotel restaurant mediocrity and spend every last penny of your food budget on the good stuff. Cacia’s Bakery next door will seal that decision if you visit both shops like we did. This is the first Primo and the friendly staff are obviously proud of that. Locals flock here and really the sandwiches will sell themselves to anyone who goes here once. The bread is soft but hearty enough to take the fixings. I got a Bada Bing which was so tasty I almost cried I hadn’t thought to buy the full sized one as I ate it on the plane home. Despite frantic Unilocal searches I haven’t found a single shop in the greater Seattle area that can touch this franchise.

So good! Second time I have eaten Primos from this, the original location, and they do not disappoint! Last time I had the Italian, this time the Suprimo. While I definitely prefer the flavor-​loaded Italian, both were excellent and filled me up just right! We called ahead today, and I particularly appreciated them double-​checking with us that we were coming to that location – I can only imagine how many people call the wrong location of a chain to place an order! I’ll be back soon– and Happy hoagie day!

Omg the hoagies… delish. They are now on grub hub so u can get delivery!!! I absolutely die for their Italian hoagie, but the roast beef or turkey schwartzie is my JAM. Perf amount of meat, cole slaw and maybe slightly too much russian dressing — ask for light dressing if you prefer. Never disappoints, great pickles and chips avail if you’re crazy like me and like putting chips on your hoagie!!!

I had the old Italian hoagie and the pasta salad. I give the hoagie a 3.5 and the pasta a 3.0. The staff was friendly and the service was prompt.

Not much to say. Best Hoagie in the USA! Friendly and professional staff. This is the original location and I still think it’s better than the rest.

. I always call and order before I go, or you may wait 10 – 20 minutes depending on the current demand. It’s never a ridiculous wait, and always quite worth it in the end. The staff is always sweet in my experience, and will always drop the «babe,» «hon,» and «sweetie» so common of most of us South Philly Italians. Overall a great place for a quick, super satisfying meal.
Primo is a local chain. So you can’t go wrong at any of the locations.
Prices are reasonable for the quality you receive!

Top flight establishment. That’s all that needs to be said. Italian Hoagies and the other deli fair are some of the best in the city. Not much can beat their diablo sandwiches. The bread makes this place truly special. They serve a great seeded, thick Italian roll

Today was our first day traveling to Primo to get a hoagie… we have each had them at catered events, but never ordered our own. We decided to split a Nonna’s Veggie (Primo size). While we were a bit surprised at how long it took (we called ahead and we were the only ones in the shop), the sandwich was good. The bread was perfect, as expected, and the broccoli rabe added great flavor. I wouldn’t say it’s the best sandwich I’ve ever eaten, and I think my fiancé liked it even more than I did. But I would definitely go back, especially to try one of the meaty sandwiches. And for $ 7 and change, 2 people were quite satisfied for a meal!

Primo’s is absolutely delicious. The bread is always fresh, and every hoagie is packed with quality ingredients. I always call and order before I go, or you may wait 10 – 20 minutes depending on the current demand. It’s never a ridiculous wait, and always quite worth it in the end.

I now know what the perfect hoagie tastes like thanks to this place. Old School Italian is as good as it gets.

Costly at nearly 10 dollars a piece. However it is well worth the money. Once you have a primo hoagie you will not want to go anywhere else.

Obviously, they have very good sandwiches. But try the sides, too. I had the tortellini parmesan and its was great.

I’m from north nj and I alway swore we had the best pizza and subs. I am officially changing that to hoagies. I had the most amazing turkey and american cheese in my whole life today. The bread was extremely fresh. There was alot of meat the perfect amount of lettuce n onions and the hoagie wasnt drenched or vinegar and mayo it was just right. I will definately be ordering from here atleast once a week this made me happy!!!

Best hoagies in town by far sometimes you might bump into local celebs/​politcals takeout only. Selections are many more than expected great sides as well. Never a bad experience and I’ve been going there for years.

I like this Primo’s. The girl that owns it (I think she owns it?) is very typical South Philly, and I don’t mean that in a bad way. She just doesn’t take any sh*t from the guys that work with her, which I love! The sandwiches are always pretty good from this particular Primo’s. My only complaint, which is across the boards at all Primo’s is that the sharp provolone that they put on the sandwiches is like a thickly sliced brick. Why can’t you slice it thinner guys? Or maybe shred it and crumble it over the meat. No one wants to bite into a brick of cheese. It takes away from the tastiness of the sandwich.

I was barely scraping by when I lived a few blocks from this Primo’s, so I could only afford to splurge on a monstrous Primo’s hoagie once or twice a month. But man, it’s no exaggeration to say that they make the best sandwich I’ve ever eaten. If you’re vegetarian, don’t be deterred by the meaty offerings (which I hear are quite delicious) — allow the Veggie Diablo with everything to astound you.
It was at this location that an old man recommended I call ahead and pick up an hour later to really let the oil soak in. That might sound gross, but it’s making me salivate as I type this five years later. Primo, I love you forever.

I dream of Primo Hoagies all the way in Sunny South FL. I’m not supposed to eat Gluten, but a Celiac Attack is so worth it. Primo Hoagies oozes South Philly. They’re family owned, everyone is nice and the Hoagies are extremely delicious. It’s a sandwich shop, you can’t eat in here. I also think they close early, like before dinner.

This place is great. It feels like a small, family-​owned neighborhood business. I expected their customer service to totally suck, but the girl working there was super nice.
The hoagies are pretty good. And although the bread is delicious, I think the hoagies are a little too bready if you know what I mean and mine was a little on the dry side. But the upside to that is if you don’t finish yours in one sitting you can easily go back and eat some more without it being all gross and soggy.
Of course, this was my first time there and I made the mistake of ordering a whole hoagie. This thing is enormous – seriously it’s like three hoagies in one. I normally have an embarassing appetite and it was too much for me.
One star removed for the breadiness and the fact that I called my order in, went 45 minutes later and still had to wait for my order.

Primo’s Hoagies is a chain of sandwich shops that originated here on Ritner st I love their Hoagies! They start with the great seeded Sarcone Roll, Italian meats and Cheeses and fresh lettuce, tomato’s and onion and their sandwiches are constructed very neatly so that you get a taste of everything in each bite. I like how they have Cheese, Pepperoni, and Olives for sale there to nosh on.
