My Hero-Subs

My husband and I love this place. They have amazing subs. My favorite is the 12 inch meatball. I love the marinara sauce they put on it & it’s covered with melted provolone cheese My husband gets the cheesesteak. The subs are a great price it’s only $ 3.99 for a 6 inch & $ 6.49 for a 12 inch. They also have subs for $ 1.99 for lighter eaters (less meat). However, when we go there we always get the bigger sandwich. My husband eats the whole sandwich and I save half of it for later. We eat here often and would highly recommend it to anyone that is craving a tasty sub!

Love love love everything we had. The ultimate steak was awesome. The meatball pepperoni was delicious too! Great prices & yummy!

Not bad for 1.99 for a 6″ turkey sub. Décor is old and dingy and a little dirty. Good for college kids and those on a tight budget

My pastrami must of been swimming in the Dead Sea. It was showered in salt

Where’s the meat???
You definitely get what you pay for at this place!
I had the turkey (if that’s what that was) avocado and bacon sandwich, there were literally two of the thinnest slices of «turkey» on it!
The girl at the register asked us to sit on the left side and eat because she already cleaned the right side! Are you serious!
So let me get this straight you want us to sit on the dirty side because you are trying to go home?
It was 5:15, the place closes at 6:00.
Between her sweeping near us while we’re eating, the loud music coming from the prep area, and the two employees yelling back and forth at each other it’s safe to say that was our first and last visit!

Service is fast and normally pretty friendly. Can’t beat the $ 2 jr subs. I remember back when they were $ 1.25. Tried a regular sub for the first time and it was basically the same as a jr sub with 2 more pieces is meat and more lettuce. Not really worth it for double the price. The reason I’m only giving it 3 stars is because they gave me some old ham in my sandwich. You can tell when ham is fresh, and the ham in my sandwich had a grayish tint to it. Also it always smells absolutely horrible in there and the dinning room floors have black build up around the tables, which is easily removed with some degreaser and scrubbing which tells me they don’t worry to much about deep cleaning the place.

Such a great find! I’ve been getting my sandwiches here for about 3 years now and it is absolutely my favorite place to go when I’m craving a good sub, and the prices are awesome too. My favorite is the turkey Jr because it’s filling, bit doesn’t have too much meat to make you feel sluggish, and the bread is absolutely amazing! I’ve tried many many different sub places and this is my go to place. So yummy the only thing I don’t like is they’re closed on Sundays, but other than that, ¹⁰⁄₁₀ for me!

It’s truly a diamond in the rough! The subs here are so nicely done and I always love to come here before I start my work shifts!
They have Jr. Subs which are $ 2 and they are perfect if you’re looking for something cheap that will fill you up! If you’re looking for larger and more filling sandwiches they have from turkey to pastrami, cold to hot sandwiches.
This place is run by a family from what I’m guessing as there is always the same 2 – 3 people here every time! They’re very friendly but it can be a bit slow with orders when you come with large groups of people.

Delicious little sandwiches for dirt cheap! Yummy! The single layer six inch mini sub is perfect for a decent sized appetite that doesn’t require being stuffed to the gills. Love that Italian dressing. Regular sized sandwiches both hot and cold, are way cheaper than subway and taste better, kind of homemade. Their bread is delicious and actually adds to the sandwich instead of being– well– just bread.

Rude employees and rude owner. Business owner knowingly breaks California Civil Code section 1748.1. When confronted with the fact that their actions contradict California law, they bar people from their business so they can continue to illegally rip off their customers. No respect for their customers and practice illegal business practices. If they knowingly skirt around laws you can only imagine how much they respect health codes. Oh, and know that their «salads» are two spoons of dressing away from being called soup. Sandwiches aren’t terrible, but the place doesn’t look clean. Buyer beware.

Decent place for a quick bite to eat. What attracted me were their prices! I like their junior sub which only cost $ 1.69. It’s pretty small and there isn’t much in there considering the price for the junior. I think it’s decent if you’re on a very low budget. It’s a plus for me cause it fills me up, since it doesn’t take a lot to fill me up.

Good alternative instead of going to Subway. Skip the $ 1.99 subway specials. Only have lettuce and tomato and barely any meat. Went here and got the 12 inch turkey with extra turkey. It was delicious. The wait for the food is way longer than going to Subway. If short on time, skip this place or order by phone.

Pros: cheap $ 1.89 for a jr sub
Cons: rude (was on phone), bad quality
I really wanted to give more stars because this place is cheap, but the last two times i went I’ve had bad experiences. First off, the staff is rude, the girl was on her phone showing another girl about her shopping experience (i overheard them) and she didn’t notice me when i came in or ignored me… Then the bad quality is for the two times I’ve ate here and got stomach aches. I assume they don’t follow proper guidelines when they store their meats.
Summary: DONT EAT HERE

In MY opinion this place has what I need for a subway sandwhich fix. I always get the stuffer and I’m good to go. Great portions, bread is good and it’s made just right. Henceforth, I don’t do that other chain of which there is one on every corner, any more.

Was in mood for some simple homemade type of deli sandwich today and found this wonderful place right across from my apt!
What a surprise! $ 1.69 6″ pastrami sub??? ½lb macaroni salad!!! This seemed bit unreal to me.
When I got the sandwich/​sub it had 2 thin slices of pastrami&cheese and easy sauce and lettus etc honestly I didnt think it will be good… BUT I WAS SO WRONG!!! for less than $ 3, I was so satisfied with both sandwich and the macaroni!
I will definitely go back to try other meals.
Looking for a simple, healthy, cheap, and homemade like meal and still be satisfied&be full? Def. come check this place out!

Service:/ zombies.
I could eat their sandwiches all day. I don’t like that they charge for anything extra. I would like to add just one topping w/​o paying .30 cents

Just no!!! Made the mistake of coming here on a Saturday bc my wonderful Tummy Stuffers is closed on weekends…
Subs are so cheap for a reason! First of all, this place has a strong, disgusting formaldehyde-​ish smell when you walk in. The «deco» and tables are super outdated and old. 2 girls working are HORRIBLE and cold, no manners.
Ok for the food– SO bland!!! I had a turkey & cheese with mustard. All I could taste was sour ass mustard and bread. The mustard must have been old. I could go to a grocery store and buy that cheap ass Buddig meat and make a better sand which! The meat at Hero’s is that «mystery» meat! «Oh, EW why are there splotches and discoloration in my meat?» Type of meat. BF got the hot pastrami & it was unfortunately the same…

I really wanted to like this place. I really did
Pros: Dirt cheap. $ 1.89 for a 6 inch sub? You can’t get any cheaper ANYWHERE. Place is clean. Love the old décor. Subs are filling and the employees are alright.
Cons: Quality is so so so low… like non edible low. I’d rather eat canned food low. the smell of the place is really strong. Like what ever they use to clean it. maybe use something else? I wanted to sit down and eat there because I love the décor, but just couldn’t get myself to due to that.
Bottom line: I really really really really wanted to like this place because I heard good things about it, but it tastes terrible! I ordered way too much too. I’m a big eater so I ordered 4 of the cheap 6 inch ones with different types of meat and the antipasto salad. Was very disappointed and almost threw up forcing myself to eat 2 of them and the antipasto because I don’t like wasting food. Not only was the meat poor quality, but the bread was too. Maybe different people have different tastes, but I won’t be coming back again. Wish I could say otherwise. I really do.

This place is not bad. I first heard about it from a friend that said the subs are 1.89 for a 6 inch Jr sub. I was amazed at such a price so I of course had to go try it.
I got the 1.89 pastrami sub, And also the 8 dollars ish ultimate steak sub. The steak sub was good, I feel like they could have added more slices of meat though, they were rather thin. The Bacon was nice And crunchy though, just like Bacon should be, And avocado added a nice creamy touch. The bread was Meh, nothing too special.
The 1.89 sub was alright, but for 1.89 u cant expect it to be of 5 dollar quality, so for a 1.89 jr sub, id say its good if ur just hungry and want somethig cheap. They give you one slice of pastrami and lettuce and cheese on bread, and it seems like they splash on some vinigrette.
Bottom line, if u want something cheap, a 1.89 sub will do the job, but of course it will be $ 1.89 quality.

If you are a poor college student looking for a 2 dollar sandwich this place maybe for you. If not maybe skip it. My boyfriend go the hot pastrami which wasn’t too bad. I enjoyed it. I got the turkey and roast beef and it was flavorless! The whole thing pretty much tasted bland. The meat pretty much tasted like nothing!
The girl working the register had zero warmth or personality and looked like she hated life. I think if I was back in the area I would still skip this place.
