Jimmy John’s

My first time trying Jimmy John’s and I learned they’re so fast because they barely put anything on the sandwich! The bread and the pickle are tasty but next time I’ll find another place for a sandwich.

I have ordered plenty of times by now. I’m always wondering if they didn’t listen to my order. I finally called the manager today, he was extremely nice and told him my disappointment. I hope this place can get their orders correct for now on.

Worst sandwich I’ve ever eaten. Husband ordered a club. I got a turkey & mayo sandwich

Let’s start by saying I frequent JJ’s regularly throughout the state; Metro Orlando area, Tampa, Fort Myers, Etc. Just last week, I had the Roast Beef, Turkey Tom & Tuna over 3 different days but not this location. The sandwiches tend to be fresh, high quality & overflowing with the fixings.
Now for the review.
We returned from a wedding in Philly late this afternoon & decided to hit JJ’s in Waterford Lakes while out running some errands. We grabbed To-​Go sandwiches & when we got home I was shocked at the wanna-​be sub in the wrapper! There was hardly any meat & the skimpy lettuce was horrible. I’m trying to post a few pictures so others can see for themselves rather than «trust» my comments. If they don’t show up here then Please look for pix by my account so you can judge for yourself. (Note — I add the yellow mustard & black pepper)
The sandwich was so thin it was almost like a pancake. I asked my wife if she accidentally ordered the Plain Slim but she confirmed it was the original Turkey Tom & receipt showed same.
Let’s just say, Jimmy himself would be disappointed in this sandwich … Poor example of what I’ve come to expect. Maybe this was the exception but I’m beginning to think they’re culture isn’t making it down to the store level — especially after reading some of the other Unilocal reviews here including several people who claimed to have found hair on /​in their sandwiches! EPIC FAIL!

U know. It’s just a clean simple sub made with fresh ingredients and good bread. Always consistent and fast.

I get the unwrap. Lettuce wrap.
Love it. So fresh and awesome how they wrap it so it doesn’t fall apart.
The guys are nice. When I order delivery from work they really are freaky fast.
Never had a sub because I rarely eat bread but the ingredients are fresh.
Friendly employees and the place was clean. Cold but clean

I love the sandwiches. They are fresh and filling. No hot sandwiches, unfortunately, and no salads.
However, I am really disappointed that in the past two weeks their online ordering service has been down. I do not order by phone if I have a choice. Restaurants that have delivery and the ability to take my order online will always have my business over those that do not.

Good subs, but inferior to Publix subs, making it only a late night option for me.

I don’t think jimmy johns is anything special. I enjoy the sprouts on their tuna sandwich but I would eat a subway tuna sandwich over theirs because you can add so much more to it and change up the plain bread to something with more flavor or even wheat. My husband loves this place and he gets the Italian which is probably their best sandwich.
But I’ve just had so much better…

Nowadays everybody is making subs or sandwiches, it’s a pretty simple formula for a business. Unfortunately just because you can put meat and condiments on bread doesn’t mean you’ve got a great sandwich.
Then there’s Jimmy John’s, based in Champaign, IL this franchise of restaurants rivals the likes of subway and quiznos. The menu has two main sections you have 8″ subs and giant club sandwiches with some interesting names like the Vito which is JJ’s version of an Italian and the Billy Club, a tasty roast beef smoked ham provolone and Dijon mustard sandwich. You’re sure to have a tough time deciding but as soon as you order they live up to their «Freaky Fast» slogan. On my last visit I had the Beach Club, sliced turkey, provolone, avocado spread, sliced cucumber, lettuce, tomato and mayo. This Definitely needs to be on your must eat list.

Got our sandwiches on the go. The boyfriend opened his Turkey Tom to find a piece of hair right on top. Fortunately, I didn’t have hair in mine so I thoroughly enjoyed my Turkey Tom. Apparently we aren’t the first people this has happened to, so JJ staff, please tame your hair!
Nonetheless, the sandwiches are so good. Especially with the plain olé white French bread. As for the cheese, why must it cost extra?

Lets start this with I LOVE Jimmy Johns!
This place made me the worst roast beef of all time. I hopefully can upload a picture of this pathetic sandwich that looked like it had been sat on. It was about an 1 ½″ tall and ONE piece of roast beef in it! EPIC FAIL JIMMY!

This JJ’s delivered my sandwich with a big piece of HAIR right on top of it today. I called and spoke with «Bradley» who claimed he was the «Manager». I told him I did not want another sandwich brought to me and simply wanted a refund. He first said he could not do that. When I told him I would be coming into the store for a refund, he agreed. I drove all the way to the store and he then refuses to give me a FULL refund because I ate the chips? First of all, I had to leave work because they delivered my food with HAIR. Secondly, I gave the driver a $ 2.25 tip for a $ 7.75 order. I’m sure Jimmy John’s could have afforded to give me a bag of chips for their MISTAKE. He seemed not to care which is sad because my office of 200+ people has given this location A LOT of business.

Skip this place, head to Jersey Mikes or even Firehouse.

Good sandwiches delivered freakishly fast. This is my default place to call when I need a meal delivered quickly.

Overall: Quick, tasty subs.
I usually get the #3 Totally Tuna sub and I love that it has alpha sprouts included. I also love that their tuna salad has celery, giving it an extra yummy crunch. The bread tastes excellent too.

Jimmy John’s has been around for some time, but I finally gave it a try after the office won a platter by placing a card in the fish bowl. The motto for the company is «Freaky Fast» and I think that fits the service at JJ’s for sure.
They have a good mixture of subs that are served on their homemade French bread. The bread is a big part of the tasty sub they offer, along with the perfect mixture of ingredients. If you order the subs as they come without adding double of anything, it’s a perfect light meal for the day. It’s just enough to satisfy your hunger without the heavy feeling.
The service is like nothing I have ever seen in a sub shop. Literally all of the staff at this location is extremely nice and completely helpful with making a sub selection. The food is served so fast that it’s weird! It’s made to order but it’s truly «Freaky Fast»!

Jimmy John’s will always remind me of Tallahassee and late nights coming home from Bulls, but I digress.
The bread, both white and wheat, is delicious and fresh everyday. Sandwiches are very fresh tasting and come in a nice variety. Fresh, fresh, fresh… haha, I guess that’s my word of choice for Jimmy John’s. Fine I’ll say it once more for good measure, fresh.
My favorite would be the beach club which is a turkey and provolone sandwich with lettuce, tomato, sprouts, avocado (YUM), cucumber and mayo… va va voom! I get it on the wheat bread and it’s massive! But perfect.
The staff is always nice and service is quick!

This is one of my last stops before driving to NY. Much better than the Subway’s that are along I 95. There’s little chance of getting a bad sub at Jimmy John’s. The roll or bread is always fresh and delicious. The quality of the meat and cheese is OK.
The price is a bit high. They are very shy about coupons or promotions. The sandwich, like others have described, could be bigger.
Service is super fast! The pickle is worth the dollar they charge.
Would management comment on the post stating they charged $ 1 extra for lettuce; they would not give the woman a piece of sandwich wrap paper to bring her leftover sandwich home? I really find that hard to believe.

When we noticed that a new Jimmy John’s had opened in the area, my wife got excited. Despite having eaten at another one before, I couldn’t remember if I liked them. While running errands today, I decided to refresh my memory and stop in.
Entering the restaurant, a number of friendly workers greeted me without rushing me to order. The restaurant is far larger than it looked like from the outside — with a row of booths going back into the building.
Deciding on the Italian Night Club, the only options I was offered were adding hot peppers, chips and a drink. They didn’t ask if I wanted to remove or change any of the ingredients, and there are only two breads available: french and whole wheat.
While those other sandwich places are offering $ 5 footlongs or other similar deals, Jimmy John’s only gets you 8″ for the same $ 5. For $ 6, you can get a larger sandwich — maybe 10″ — I didn’t happen to have a ruler in my back pocket today and I didn’t ask anyone about the sizes. According to the menu, each sandwich comes in only one size. I don’t see why you couldn’t ask for the ingredients of a larger sandwich on the smaller bun, but I don’t pretend to know the inner workings and politics of Jimmy John’s.
Once you place your order, you sit and wait until they finish building your sandwiches and they call you back up. You don’t get to pick and choose your ingredients like the other sandwich places. What you lose customization options, Jimmy John’s tries to make up with quality.
The ingredients looked and tasted fresh, and they were plentiful. A few people on the Unilocal forums have recently mentioned that Italian subs should inherently be a little messy. As I ate mine, ingredients kept squishing out and I’d have to poke them back onto the sandwich. This wasn’t so big that I had to keep smash the sandwich down before I could eat it, but they don’t skimp here.
What Jimmy John’s also has that the other sandwich guys don’t is a couple of decent options for vegetarians. The veggie sandwiches at a lot of other places are just subs without the meat. Vegetarian? Yes. Interesting? No. Jimmy John’s puts cucumbers, avocado spread and alfalfa sprouts onto their normal vegetable toppings. Still not exactly catering to vegetarians, but a much better option.
While their food isn’t exactly the «gourmet» that the name claims (though they admit that it’s very tongue in cheek), Jimmy John’s is a solid choice.
