bigg jay Posted May 7 Report Share Posted May 7 12 minutes ago, Brandon said: We checked out Firehouse Subs off of Regent this afternoon, we stopped by at noon and the line up was 25 long so we came back an hour later. Much more quiet at that point with only 3 customers in front of us, it ended up taking 25 minutes to get our subs. I assume things will speed up once staff is more experienced. The subs just like the other location are massive in size and really tasty. I think most people would be completely stuffed with the smaller size sub , it's really dense and full of meat. I also noticed two doors down next to Bar Burrito that a place called "Boustan" is coming soon. Yet ANOTHER shawarma place opening up... it's funny that for years we had none and within the last 3 or so years 5 places have opened up. When I saw the sign I thought it was a mini Boston Pizza... it had the same colors, almost the same name, a logo with what looked like was a pizza slice, and a similar font. While it's nice getting new things... I think this area is covered with enough middle eastern food restaurants. The area could really use a Jimmy The Greek or Thai Express. Tried Firehouse on Friday evening and the line was the same. They definitely do not skimp out on the meat but almost to a fault. It was so messy trying to keep that whole thing together. I'll take that over not enough meat though. bustamente and rebusrankin 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wife brought home a variety of subs tonight, they are a bit pricey but all I can say is good bye Subway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Duper Negatron Posted Monday at 11:55 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 11:55 PM Just checked out Sam's with the family tonight. Nothing fancy, but the schnitzel was light and crispy and the family enjoyed their burgers. I would go back. MOBomberFan and Brandon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whistle dog was done dirty by the gross relish. You'd think a bacon cheddar dog was impossible to screw up. A hotdog with real cheddar cheese, bacon, mustard, sweet onion and a slice of pickle (optional ketchup and or mayo) would have been amazing. I'm making some later today on the BBQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
