Lou’s Giant Subs & Deli

Lou’s was a quick stop before an afternoon meeting in Pompano Beach and I was pleasantly surprised with Lou’s quality and quantity of the sandwiches. We had the chicken steak sub and a turkey, both very filling for a half portion. Meat & cheese is cut right there for the sandwich and chicken was breast, not the pressed junk I get @ home in Philadelphia. All & all, a good spot for lunch.

First time yesterday. I had never heard of Lou’s and I give them a OMG. I’ll be back real soon and may even tell my wife. Also, those chips are two thumbs worthy.

Great giant subs. the closest thing your going to get to laspadas. Always go with the foot long Italian and the also have a great selection of chip and the have a fruit punch waterfall awesome

I had the steak sub and was satisfied with the quality. I also added mushrooms. It was about 8 bucks and definitely worth it. Would recommend this place to others as it was clean and the food looked delicious.

Got the whole 12″ Super Italian and I ate it all. It was good. Lots of meat, thinly sliced, on a fresh roll. Classic and delicious.
This is an old school sub shop. No frills, just order, pick-​up, seat yourself and check out the décor. Recommended.

I’m finally reviewing Lou’s. I have been coming here for years and I’m giving a 5 star rating because I have never had a problem. Food workers customer service has always been consistent irregardless of who’s working and that is a very important part about having a successful business especially in the food industry. Lose is part of Pompano it’s been around for years and is a staple on Dixie Highway

Good local sub shop, large sitting area, good parking, fresh sliced deli meat for each sandwich, lines moves quickly, one of the better sub shops in the area, stop in to give them a try.

Horrible customer service!!! Last 2 times I went I had to just leave before ordering… You can’t pay me to go back there… Young unprofessional people.

The sub was tasty. I think I was expecting more. It was simple. I ordered 6 inch roast beef and turkey sandwich with spinach, salt and pepp, with olives and banana pepp. I was incredibly amazed. Service was quick, so a check of my bucket list.

I ordered lunch today with my coworkers. Not only were our orders wrong, there were orders missing. We called. After trying to tell me they sent all the food they made me another sandwich.
That sandwich was by far the grossest steak & cheese sandwich I have ever tasted. I couldn’t even eat it. Don’t waste your money. It’s not worth it. We will never order from here again. If I could give a half a star, it would still be generous.

My family and I have been patrons of Lou’s Subs since the 80’s. There has never been an argument in my family on where we will eat when we all came back home for a visit. This place has yet to disappoint. Today’s visit was superb as always. Everything this is fresh and made to order. Listen people this not your average sub shop, seriously. I even tried the lobster soup, amazing and favorful. Good food and great service what else could you want for?

I always go with the Italian. It is delicious and tastes very fresh. The meats are carved on the spot which is amazing. But it is also their downfall because it makes the wait twice as long. I ordered a sub online to get there and wait for an additional 10 minutes. I left without a sub and disappointed. I would call in an order. The only reason they have three stars is because the subs are really great.

Drove by several times but doesn’t seem inviting. Had the steak n cheese. Sub was great, made the way I like it. If it wasn’t for Unilocal I would have never eaten here. highly recommend

Good stuff, soup was amazing. We were looking for some true Philly Cheese steaks and Lou came though. Nice people and atmisphire too.

Holy shit! Typing this while chewing… All i can say is, AMAZING. I got a large Italian in order to save half for later. This thing is HUGE and so tempting to finish the rest right now. One of the best subs I’ve ever had. I will definitely become a regular here. If only i had discovered them sooner. Perfect bread and perfect meat to bread ratio. Perfection. And a friendly staff, i walked in and out quickly great service.

Had been eyeing this place for a while and finally made the trek with a co-​worker. Very glad I did.
Very small divey place that’s hard to spot but still pretty clean. Thankfully we arrived at a time that wasn’t busy as there wasn’t a long line or shortage of tables and gave us the opportunity to scan the menu a bit. I ended up going for a chicken salad sandwich with bacon. I was tempted to order a Monster but I’m honestly glad I didn’t, because my sandwich was already overflowing with chicken salad. The salad had a lot of mayo too, which I like, and was just overall really good. I have yet to try La Spada’s chicken salad sandwich, and am a little eager to compare the two.
Finished it off with some sort of… brownie/​cookie hybrid. Cookie base, fudge brownie on top drizzled with caramel. The cookie part was a little hard but it actually worked really well texture-​wise with the gooey brownie part. Still would’ve preferred a chewier cookie but it was a great (gluttonous) way to finish the meal.
When it comes to cold cuts I’d still slightly lean toward La Spada’s, but this place has way more variety when it comes to their menu with their hot subs, so it gets a 5 as well.

Good spot for a quick freshly prepared sandwich!
Enjoyed a 6 inch Italian on soft bread with flavorful meat. Lots of soda and chip options and felt like it was a more authentic sub experience compared to the pre cut meats of the sub giants around.
The inside is cozy and it gets pretty busy around lunch time. I was tempted to try the steak and cheese which seems to be the goto from what the regulars around me ordered, but was still pleased with my Italian.
Overall this place does not disappoint and will see more of me soon.

Great place for a quick fresh sub!
I heard about Lou’s on one of our dive trips down from Jacksonville. we filled our tanks right up the road … Dive shop suggested Lou’s. LOVED it! Always made it by Lou’s when in town… NOW that I moved to the Pompano Beach area — I keep coming back for more! We love the fresh subs and always have a good experience. Lines can sometimes be lengthy during peak times of the day, but we have learned not to go during lunch. I had the BEST chicken pesto sub yesterday. This is my fave sub shop in Pompano. Décor is a dated and dress is relaxed as you can see in the pics, but it’s fun décor… lots of fish and super cool pictures taken throughout the years. They keep the place neat and clean… gets a little loud during busy times, but well worth it.

When it comes to the world of subs, Lou has them all from their «Super Italian» (my fav) down through crabmeat, tuna, turkey, ham cappacola and more plus a «Lou’s Monster» which if you get the 12 incher, it really is monster. He also has different soups every day of the week, various items off the grill, salads hot subs, steak subs, wraps, deli sandwiches and hot plates of varying pasta based dishes and a barbecue pork platter.
Lou’s is big, bright, and roomy with plenty of seating and pleasant sport fishing décor. The staff is particularly friendly and quick not only to pick up on your name but amazingly remember it when you return.
Though an Italian Sub and an Italian Hoagie are essential the same without a wits bit of difference between the two, when it comes to them I must confess that my personal preference would be for a Laspada’s Original West Chester Pennsylvania Hoagie.

I can’t believe this is my first time at Lou’s since I have lived in Pompano for almost 3 years. The restaurant is definitely old school, it’s been around for over 30 years. After reading several reviews about Lou’s famous subs I finally got over there to try one out for myself. The guy that created my sub was friendly, I ordered a small roast beef sub with all the fixings, he quickly assembled it, I was actually surprised by how quickly it was ready, I took it to go.
Once I unwrapped my sub and started biting into it, I realized why it was assembled so quickly, it was a freaking mess, stuff was just falling out of it on all sides! There was no tucking in of the fixings, everything had just been thrown in. The bread tasted fresh and it was delicious, and the roast beef had a nice flavor however it was overcooked for my liking, I prefer by sub roast beef to be rare, there were some areas that were on the medium rare side but most of it was medium to medium well, and the fixings were also good for the most part, the sweet peppers were delicious, and the lettuce, tomatoes and onions where good, however I didn’t care for the black canned olives. I love that they now have their own herb garden, I can definitely taste the difference and freshness, their homemade potato salad with the fresh herbs is unbelievably good, I wish they cooked their Roast Beef more on the rare side. Service is very attentive and friendly. Overall good sub if I am in the area.
