Jersey Mike's coming to Da Metrys... (1 Viewer)

I like Jersey Mike’s.. to me, it’s the best of the national sub chains, like Jimmy John’s, Subway et al.. although Firehouse Subs is pretty decent as well.. You will get lots of NOLA people complaining that Jersey Mike’s subs arent as good as po-boys or other authentic New Orleans fare- but that isnt what it’s trying to be…. It’s for people who are mostly in a hurry, want something not too expensive , not too unhealthy and that they can get to-go and pretty much know what youre getting in terms of consistency , without wrecking ur body as much as true fast food does .

My thoughts exactly, it was my go-to sub place when I lived in Pensacola years ago and I like it way more than any other chain...

Yeah my only problem is i eat there so much that at this point im a little sick of it.. then again, i only get like 2 or 3 things on the menu, i should probbaly branch out a little .
 
No 17. Every time. I have literally never had any other sub. They have one in Mandeville and I go 2 or 3x a month.



Happy to see Metry getting.
 
I dont know the #s, but at Jersey Mike’s im usually about that Italian sub life, ’Mike’s Way’ add spicy mustard and jalapeños .. sometimes i get the turkey & provolone.. every once in a while the Chicken Bacon ranch, or the Philly Cheesesteak, hold the cheese .
 
if you have had the Philly, then you have had no 17.

my first time, about a year ago, ( just after we opened our Northshore office ) I wandered in and saw the Philly. I can't explain how picky I am about this sub. So when deciding, the owner happened to be there and started to give me low down on the more best selling subs. I said "I think I gotta try the Philly, but I gotta admit I'm pretty picky about that sub". He said if its not what I thought it would be its on him.

never tried another sub since. Regular, bag of harvest cheddar sun chips and Pepsi ( which is the only time I drink Pepsi )

My first day back in Metairie, I told entire office how crazy it was Metairie didn't have a Jersey Mikes.

Looks like it will be next to Clearview Mall- in same strip as Izzos Illegal Burrito. Looking forward to this. I may treat the office so long as everyone gets the Philly lolol.
 
Not a fan of Subway, but I do miss a toasted sub at Quiznos every now and then!

Their Philly is the best of any chain. It's been a while since I've lived near a Jersey Mike's, but I can't go and settle on anything other than the Philly.

My only problem with their Philly, and the reason i tell them to hold the cheese- is that they use something called ‘white American cheese’ on it.. which is just their version of the American cheese product crap that most fast food places use to save a buck.. it’s nasty, and it cant even legally be called cheese , since it’s literally just chemicals mixed together to try and approximate the taste of cheese.. but, i digest…. Anyway, it never really occurred to me until typing this thread, but next time i may ask them to make me a Philly using the provolone that they use on the turkey and the Italian.. i dont see why they wouldnt do it .
