Jimmy John’s

Ate here for the first time in downtown Phoenix. Was going to have a turkey sandwich but the turkey looked disgusting! Then opted for the tuna which tasted terrible and ultimately made me sick!!! Will NEVER eat there again!

OK, I really like the convienence of sandwiches delivered right to my office. JJ’s had been very consistant and delivered good food. Unfortunately the quality of the food has gone the same way as most chain sandwich shops. We’ve been super busy, I needed to order out twice this week. TUESDAY: Ordered a club sandwich with extra meat. No extra meat. Ok one miss, not too bad. THURSDAY: Ordered a tuna salad sandwich, onions extra. Opened the wrapper and I got tomatoes, cucumbers, extra mayo and all of the water they should have drained off the tuna. Bread was soaked, dissolving into this gooey mayo colored pile of gloop.
Time to quit JJ’s like Subway, Quiznos, Port of Subs and all the others before.

So, I was squatting down in the office, trying to assemble a marketing banner, when the seat of my slacks blew out. Like, totally ripped open the seam from crack to grundle. My fat ass. In the washroom, I used safety pins to close the seams; the water activated and soaked my left pant leg. Oh, I should mention by this point my slacks were off. Needless to say, I was *not* going out for lunch. Jimmy John’s and their fantastic fast delivery saved my bacon… and my dignity.
Feeling especially glum, I ordered what I thought would be a sensible meal: The gargantuan, a bag of chips, pickle and a cookie. Let me tell you, this is more than an ample meal. To the sandwich I added sprouts, cucumbers and hot peppers, all of which swelled this sammie to gigantic, gargantuan proportions! The veggies were fresh, the meat was fresh, the bread was fresh. It all pulled together perfectly. Not unlike my slacks.
Lately I’ve been on a pickle kick. So, being able to add a pickle to my meal was a ray of sunshine. And JJ’s pickles are huge! Brandee even said so when she leaned over my shoulder, saying, «Wow, your pickle really is big!» So, there you go so.
In all honestly, I finished all the meal except roughly half the sandwich. It really was a lot of food. Which made me think that maybe it was my pudgy bottom that was the root cause of my wardrobe malfunction. Meh, ef it!

I prefer Jimmy John’s over Subway, and this one is your typical JJ’s. Fast and well prepared subs. Friendly crew that work here as well.

Let me preface this review by saying that my hubbs really liked jimmy johns. I believe he ate here for a bulk of the time he was working in phoenix. I’m not certain if it was due to the inexpensive cost, or the quality of the food here.
I had tried it once, it was a sandwich that housed a variety of deli meats, easy on the sauce and some lettuce. I’ll admit the sandwich was decent, meaty and good chew on the bread, but definitely isn’t something I’d crave.
Nonetheless, he enjoyed so I didn’t mind stopping by to give it a try.

This was the worst experience of ever had a Jimmy John’s I went through the drive-​through and got an unwhich the lettuce was oldit was wrapped in properly I know it’s hard to wrap the sandwich in lettuce but the one in Scottsdale’s that’s a perfect every time the sandwich was disgusting and it fell apart right when I opened it it was such a bad experience I immediately logged on to Unilocal
The tomatoes were tiny and two of them were the end pieces
The lettuce was old and super wet (0crunch)
Not much avocado spread
all the taste my Unwhich usually has did not exist on this sandwich everything was so old I felt I had been robbed
And I usually love to treat my self to an Unwhich
Clearly this isn’t a good location and wasn’t the quality I’ve come to expect from being spoiled from the one in Scottsdale

I really love jimmy johns and most locations are ‘freaky fast’ as they should be… But NOT this location! Every time I order from this locations it takes from 45 minutes to an hour to deliver (Note that I live 0.7mi from the location). Other than that, sandwiches are real good!

I like JJs because it’s fast and affordable.
I called in My order and by the time I walked there it was finished. Today I had the #12 which is one of my favorite sandwiches, I think primarily because it has turkey and avocado! Get extra veggies, peppers and it’s a delight. I would recommend it to anyone.
Bön Appétit!

Same issue I have with the other location, the staff sick, rude and not helpful. Likewise, I hate their deceptive marketing, the reason they are“freaky fast”, is because they only delivery within a 5 minute radius, apparently I am in a Jimmy Johns dead zone, sandwiched (ha ha) between two stores that will not deliver to me.

So I went here earlier this week for lunch. I ordered the Big John I believe that was the name. Anyhow, it came with lettuce, tomatoes, mayo and roast beef.
First things first the good:
Compared to Subway the bread had a better texture. It wasn’t overly hard or too soft… just right in my opinion. The roast beef tasted pretty good! It actually tasted as if it could be a decent quality beef… but what do I know, this was my 2^nd or 3^rd time eating roast beef. The vegetables on the sub were nice and firm, and not so overpowering that they made my sandwich soggy.
The bad:
For the size of the sub (8inch) it would’ve been better if they’d filled the open spaces with more meat or toppings. The sandwich seemed a bit naked and skimpy.
The ugly:
So this is the one thing that actually made me question their superiority to Subway. THE TASTE OF THE BREAD! Okay, so if Subway uses rubber in their bread, what is it that these guys use?! I can’t explain the taste except if I tasted my hair relaxer, I’m pretty certain that would be it :-/​It had such a chemical like je né sais quoi.
Whew…so after it’s all said and done… I say get your sub at Fry’s haha okay half joking… umm well save a cow and start eating salad, :-) that is all

Sometimes its good to have a lot of choices. But when you’re starving and you just want something… not so good because everything sounded good! I don’t understand the menu’s being huge and plastered high up on walls. I know, I know, take a few giant steps back maybe you’ll see it better. Hell, step outside and look… oh yea, nevermind I forgot my glasses. LoL! I think that was my only issue about the place.
OKay, so I got a 8″ sub with a large fountain drink — 8 bucks. Not bad. I don’t remember what it was called, I think it was the #12. It had avocado, provelone and turkey slices. I love that they pile on a lot of shredded lettuce on it. I asked for sprouts, but she heard sauce. And it got slapped with mayo. Whatever, I was hungry and it still tasted good, except with all that sauce the insides kept slidding out the back everytime I took a bite.
The place was nice, seating is limited. They do have some outside tables. The music is a little too loud. The cashier was patient as we hemmed and hawed and helpful when we asked questions. Once we ordered, the sandwhichs were put together very quickly and the name of your sandwhich yelled out for you at the other end. All 4 of us enjoyed our sandwhichs. 1 coworker got a pickle to eat later. When she opened it later that day, it was sliced in 4, and she gave me one. OMG! I know what I’m getting next time.

AMAZING SERVICE!!! I’ve never actually been to this location but they have delivered to me more times than I could ever count! I never wait longer than 15 minutes, my order is always correct, and even when its 100 degrees out, the delivery guys show up with a smile. Keep up the great work you guys!

This is usually my default if I need lunch fast in between meetings. I order online and like 10 minutes later it is delivered! Bread is always fresh and delicious and the online system is really easy to use to place your delivery order. For a sandwich, its pretty good and the fact they deliver makes it even better.

What can I say, a simple sandwich with fresh baked bread?! Good and simple all the time! Gotta love JJ!

I work for Wells Fargo across the street, and with a limited lunch schedule Jimmy Johns has always came through for me in clutch. I have never spent more than 3mins in the location no matter what time of day I arrived. That is a serious plus.
The subs themselves are hard to mess up, I mean really… If you have something negative to say about a sub from JJ or Subway, just make it yourself…
Thanks Jimmy.

I work downtown and have limited time for lunch, so Jimmy John’s is always the best option when you want/​need FAST food!
I have always had a good experience ordering from this location and on average, my food is delivered in 15 minutes or less.
I continue to order here regularly.

There’s always smiling faces and quick service when I order my veggie on 7 grain bread. It’s fresh and delicious!

Ehh, three stars because of delivery and fast service. If you have to work on the weekend (thanks boss) and you want a place to deliver, you’re shit outta luck in downtown. Soooo Jimmy John’s to the rescue (somewhat) and your food is delivered with pretty quick timing…
As far as the food goes — I felt like I was eating a sandwich from home. I ordered the Tuna. It was decent, but the bread was terrible. It’s french bread, which is hard to chew and without any kind of flavor. The tuna had cheese, cucumbers, and celery on top, so I added avocado for an extra kick… and I didn’t get my kick.
Not eating here again.

I should take Matt M’s suggestion and order online — yeah. This place gets PACKED at lunch. The BLT sub is good, and they do make the sandwiches pretty fast, but… wow. People overload.
The employees are friendly. There’s outside seating, and limited inside seating. This location is next door to Five Guys, which adds to the chaos.
Pros:
Downtown PHX location
Outside seating
Yummy food
Cons:
VERY loud inside
Limited inside seating
Limited chips selection
The dilemma of downtown parking (unless you work within walking distance)
I agree… order online… Lucky for me, I can just walk across the street and pick up mine.

Delivers! In downtown Phoenix! On a Saturday!
While I still don’t feel that this chain deserves the praise that many people give it, I have a new found appreciation for this location. When you work downtown on weekends, your options are already limited. And it’s even harder to find a place that will bring the food to you.
