Subway

I’ve dined at this location alone, and with my kids, and the service is always great, with friendly sandwich makers. The food is fresh, and delicious, the restaurant is clean, and one of the largest subways I have ever been to.
I would highly recommend this sibway

As you might expect from the address, this Subway is located in the same parking lot as Ronnie’s theater. I sometimes feel a little silly when I review a place after only one visit, but as they say, you never get a second chance to make a first impression.
My husband is fairly certain that this Subway has been in existence for quite a while, but it looked brand new. The interior was clean with a layout and décor congruent with newer Subway restaurants.
The service here was great. My sandwich was made by an incredibly polite young lady. In fact, all of the employees were polite and friendly.
The food also was good. My bread was soft, and all of the veggies looked fresh. Sometimes Subway has some iffy-​looking lettuce and cucumber slices that have been kept so cold they have become translucent and slimy. (If you’ve ever had a cucumber slice like this, you know what I’m talking about.) However, I didn’t see anything at all visibly wrong with any of the food here.
So, why am I giving this Subway only four stars if it had a nice interior, friendly employees, and good food? It’s because they keep their restrooms locked. The two restroom doors each displayed a sign that stated restrooms were for customers only and that you should ask the cashier for the key after placing your order. Sure enough, the door to the ladies’ room was locked.
In my mind, such a sign would be posted after a restaurant has had a significant problem with people coming in for the sole purpose of using the restroom. I’ve seen dozens of these signs in highly populated urban areas where most businesses do not even have public restrooms, in shady neighborhoods, and at gas stations in the middle of nowhere. Maybe I’m missing something, but this shopping center doesn’t fall into any of those categories. I mean, even the McDonald’s in the Haight-​Ashbury district of San Francisco had an unlocked public restroom. You just had to wait for the druggies to come out. And I’m not kidding about that.
Okay, so big deal. Right? I’m a paying customer anyway, and if I want to use the restroom, all I have to do is ask for the key after I place my order.
«Would you like chips and a drink with your sandwich?»
«No, just the sandwich and the key to the can. I have to pee, and I’d also like to wash my hands. Did you hear that, fellow diners? Kitty has a full bladder and is a fan of good hygiene practices!»
Then what? I take my food with me into the restroom? I leave my food unattended on a table while I go to the toilet? If I get my honey mustard all over my hands while I’m eating my sammie, do I get the privilege of using the restroom a second time?
I’m going to assume they have had some kind of restroom-​related incident (s) here and that the restroom restriction isn’t a money-​saving measure. However, I’m deducting a star because the signs are off-​putting and kind of ridiculous.
However, if you are in the area and have no immediate bowel or bladder needs, check out this Subway. It’s a pretty good one.
