Firehouse Subs

Come on people seriously? This place is awful. I always go by this place and my husband and I thought we would try it. I ordered the steak sub and the meat tasted like dried up dog food. Also they have no good sides to go with the sub. I hate subway and I would rather eat their steak sub.

WOW! I must have been living under a rock. Tonight I made the top 3 best decision of 2015 and decided to go to Firehouse Subs. Let me tell you what, I have a new favorite restaurant.
I wish I would have been the boss on that show «undercover boss» because the kid named RJ who helped me was a CHAMPION! The guy was full of positive energy and went out of his way to make one hell of a sub.
Firehouse subs … Keep doing what you’re doing… Because you are awesome and if we had more RJ’s in the world it would be a better place!

This place is now my new favorite sub place in Toledo. Staff is really nice and helpful and you can choose between 120 different flavors of pop, teas, and Lemonades.

Never been here before and wow I got a say thy have some amazing sub’s I ordered the new York steamer absolutely awesome! Friemly staff that seems to enjoy conversation with customers and very fast service I badly waited at all and they have a mixology cokeacola machine enough said!

The subs here are decent. The meat itself is very flavorful but the rest was pretty bland. The staff working was very nice and and happy to answer any questions you could have. The subs themselves were put together very well, but the size of them are not worth the price.

First time eating their subs; likely the last. I had the turkey bacon ranch sub, 8 inch. It wasn’t bad-​tasting, but it wasn’t flavorful by any means. It was incredibly small too. Although 8 inches in length, it was like half the size of Subway or Penn Station sub’s width-​wise. I normally can’t finish any sub in one sitting and I easily finished this and was still hungry. It was awfully pricey all points considered as well. Staff was friendly and the place was well-​kept.

The brisket sandwich is so good. The girl that worked there was so helpful and friendly. She could not have been any nicer… We will definitely go back again. When someone greets you with a smile and is helpful you want to go back.

it’s a wonderful establishment, very clean in all areas. and they talk to you which is awesome!
I love the firefighter theme as my grandparents were cops. i had the steamer.
notice the rack of hot sauce they have numbered from 1 – 10 based on hotness
they have a tv as well. oh wait and mini firefighter hats for the kids. what’s not to love?
and my lawd, who can forget the soda fountain from hell?!?
it’s got a touch screen with like 140 different kinds of soda :O
a little expensive but that’s why the lord made coupons. better than jimmy john’s which is more expensive and isn’t as good. and subway started out the exact same way.
I’ll go back on my next off day for sure.

Baller subs. They make them right in front of your eyes and they are really good. Nice selection of hot subs and the soft bread is excellent. The beef brisket with BBC sauce and Nacho cheese is literally the crème del la crème of garbage food. Now if only they had french fries like Penn Station. …

Why 5 stars? It’s the best (and if not the best, a very close second to Penn Station) in its niche. Which niche? Fast food sub chains, of course! I’ve had pretty much everything on their menu, and everything has been totally satisfying.
I think FS does the meatball sub better than any other chain. It’s an awesome sandwich, period. The pastrami (NY steamer?) is outstanding, also. The Italian sub, however, in my opinion, not so great.
TAKE NOTE: Another cool thing is the row of hot sauces that you can sample. Some are mild and some are VERY hot. Personally, I would avoid trying the «10“s before you eat your sub… you may burn the HELL out of your tongue and, hence, be unable to fully enjoy your awesome sandwich!
I would also AVOID the touch screen pop dispenser. Each time I’ve tried it, it’s given me way too much soda water, and not enough pop syrup. If you’re giving me that much soda, you better be giving me some cheap scotch to go with it.
Firehouse subs is definitely worth a visit every now and again.

Awesome subs, a little longer wait but it was well worth it, staff was friendly.

my son and I went in. Great service and GREAT food!!!

What is a five star review? A one star?
Answer: the easy reviews. It’s tougher to choose anything in between.
I give Firehouse Subs five stars for accomplishing what I assume they set out to do: to offer quality subs at a reasonable price.
I got the brisket; Patrick got the turkey bacon ranch. The brisket was, in a word, amazing. It is their signature sub and I expected it to be awesome, but it exceeded that. The meat was tender, the bread was great — awesome sandwich. It was like a pulled pork sandwich in many ways. I modified Patrick’s sandwich to the point that it is beyond commentary, but he ate it.
Were we to stack them up against some kind of competition, I would say Penn Station, with the win going to Firehouse.
For any of you familiar with or living downtown, check out some of the vintage firefighting photos featured on the walls.

I had the Steamer. Pretty good sub for pastrami. Penn Station still wins for hot subs in my book. Will eat here again though!

What’s this? Am I really reviewing a chain fast food restaurant? Hear me out!
We popped in today, in the mood for a quick sandwich and a taste for something new. This recently opened, locally owned and operated franchise had been recommended by several friends so we thought we’d give it a try.
The interior’s red, black and white color scheme and layout immediately reminded me of five-guy’s. There is a cute mural on the wall of the mudhen’s stadium and a Toledo fire truck. Very cute.
All of the subs looked pretty good, and I went with the «new york steamer» which includes Corned beef brisket, pastrami, provolone, mustard, mayo, and Italian dressing. My wife got the italian.
We had to wait an oddly long time for our subs to be prepared. Thankfully the sandwiches were terrific! My sub instantly reminded me of my recent visit to Katz Deli in New York. No, of course it wasn’t as good as Katz (nothing is) but the meat was REALLY flavorful and beautifully moist.
The addition of a few different hot sauces, pulled from their huge variety of flavors really kicked it up several notches. As a hot sauce fan, it’s great to be able to try new sauces, and make each bite a little different.
If you’re in the mood for a sub, and want something a little higher quality than the typical chains, definitely check this place out. But just don’t do it if you’re in a rush.

Firehouse Subs gives Jimmy John’s, Subway, Quizno’s and all other sub franchises a run for their money! The subs are deliciously steamed to perfection. The meat and cheese practically melts in your mouth. I have only had the Hook & Ladder, but I am excited to try more! This was my first time dining in, and the atmosphere made me love this place even more. They have this awesome futuristic (touch screen) pop machine that gives you 120 choices of beverages. They have an array of hot sauces displayed and labeled according to hotness. You can watch the game on their flat screen tv while dining. Also, part of all profits support firefighters. I hope they open many more of these all around Toledo!
