051 Subs

I’ve driven past this place a million times and finally had the chance to try it one day when the pizza place up the street turned out to be closed after I pulled into the parking lot. I was in a rush, so I decided to get a sandwich to go.
I ordered my usual-​an Italian with pickles and onions, mayo, and O&V-a bag of chips, and a soda. While I waited for my food, I went to pour my soda and there was no ice. I can give or take ice, but the problem is that with some machines, the ice is what keeps the soda in it cold… so the soda was bordering on warm. I decided that I would just get some ice when I got to work.
I went back to the counter and suddenly had a sneaking suspicion. The woman who had taken my order and payment was busy working on my sub… WITH HER BARE HANDS. Now, perhaps she washed them after using the bathroom, touching money, pens, trash, and god knows what else, but I dídnt know that. All I saw was her preparing my food with HER BARE HANDS. Gross. I have trouble believing that any sanitary restaurant would actively make somebody food without wearing gloves, especially coming off cold and flu season. It makes me wonder what else they are unsanitary about. No wonder another reviewer said that some people they knew got sick!
I am not the type to complain or make a fuss, so I politely took my sub and sadly left. I ended up stopping at Winn Dixie close by and getting another sub. I decided not to throw the original sub away and would maybe give it to a homeless person, but I never saw one. So into the garbage it went. :-(
I wanted to like this place. I am sure their cheesesteaks are as good as the reviews say. I am from the Northeast and a sub place that suits my fancy is hard to come by. I guess I will have to stick with supermarket subs for now, and just keep looking.

.I’ve been going here for over 4 ½ yrs., today I will not go back, it cost $ 8.50 for a sub with lettuce and tomatoe, I ordered the steak and cheese with jalapeño, it was was terrible, wish I had my money back. Also $ 3.00 for lg. fries now, I paid $ 21.00 for 2 subs and fries, I coulda/​shoulda got steaks. Not bashing, but they have gone to a cheaper way to produce there product, will not go back.

I can’t believe this place gets such high remarks. Cheese steak is not good. Bread to meat ratio is way off. It’s steakums

The absolute best cheesesteak sub I’ve ever had! Don’t let the appearance of the place scare you! Just get it to go!

Great cheesesteak. Only giving four stars because there may be a little too much bread, but the flavors were good. I’ll be back.

I have to say, fantastic sandwiches! We’ve driven by dozens of times and never stopped in. We finally did and I will tell you this, we will definitely be back. Fantastic! We had the 051 cheese steak, man, yummy! I can’t wait to try one of their other sandwiches! Go there!

Really good cheesesteak. Could have gone heavier on the jalapeños. Bread was nice and fresh. Will definitely be back.

Just moved to the area from Winter Park and passed this place MANY times often wondering what type of subs and other food fare awaited… With no website, I turned to Unilocal and was pleasantly surprised with all of the high reviews. I’ve been there and done that with Philly cheese steaks all over the U.S. so I had to try since it was only a few blocks away. I must say that all the other Unilocalers are right, SIMPLY FANTASTIC PHILLIES and at a GREAT PRICE. 051 can go toe to toe with LaSpada’s which was my go to place until now… I’ll be back to try their other subs!
God speed and go eat!

I was really unsure about eating here but I like to support local restaurants. I’m highly IMPRESSED. I ordered a chef salad with the homemade vinaigrette which was amazzzinggg! I also tried the Italian sub which was huge and very tasty! I’ll definitely order from again!

Get the 051 cheesesteak! Really great .
I tried this place because I figured any place this rundown and still in business must be doing something right and I couldn’t of been more right they make amazing cheesesteaks

I was hesitant to eat here, as it’s kinda sketchy looking. I was pleased to find that it’s a surprisingly good spot. Their bread is always soft and delicious. Fries were fresh and crispy. We love the marsala sub.

They have great cheesesteaks, and everybody in my work has been going there for years. But recently three different times people at my work including me got sick after eating there. So we all just stopped going. It was a shame because their cheesesteaks are good.

Great food. Had one of their subs and for the price you won’t find a better sub anywhere.
Only reason for 4 stars is the place is a little itself is a little bit run down.

I ordered a large caesar salad and a bruschetta app, there was a $ 10 min I didn’t hit with both items so I ordered a garden salad as well. Portions were large considering the price so I won’t complain there.
Delivery was extremely fast and they were able to take my debit card through a square reader when they arrived which was very convenient.
The garden salad came with a house made vinaigrette which was very tasty.
The tomato bruschetta was a white hoagie roll cut in half, buttered, with sliced tomato and melted cheese on top… not really what I was expecting. But ya know, I ate most of it anyway because who doesn’t love grilled cheese?
All in all, not the most fantastic food I’ve ever had but I will probably order from them again.

Hands down the best cheesesteaks in C. Florida. Just order what you want on it.
I get 3 cheeses, bacon, and jalapeños.
Enjoy.

Great food at a great price!
Seriously one of the best local sub shops. In fact, I am having it for lunch today!

I have driven past this place for many years never stopping in and decided to give it a try after reading the excellent reviews on Unilocal.I was not disappointed at all. Got the Philly cheese with onions, peppers, mushrooms, and it was loaded and excellent. I’m not from Philadelphia so I don’t know how they compare, but it was the best I have had here in the Orlando area. I definitely won’t wait another ten years to go back.

While visiting a friend in Florida and in town for business, his family suggested the 051 Sub shop. A group of us went a little past the lunch hour and were pleasantly surprised at the quick service and great quality of the food. No one at our table of four got the Philly Cheesesteak, but we’ve heard they are delicious.
I got a club sandwich that was large and had crispy bacon on it (my fav). The bread was fresh and the sub, although I think we ordered 6 inch — was more like 8 inches. Others seemed happy with their subs, but I can’t recall what they were. There isn’t a lot sitting room inside, but there is a spacious covered porch — very Florida style.
The menu isn’t expansive, but if you’re in the area… try this place instead of chain sub shops. Yum! Also — not sure they take cards… not 100% but I’d bring cash just in case!

I’ve been ordering a take out sub here and there from them for 2 years now and it’s perfect every time.

Great subs. I go there whenever I am working on that side of town.
