Their sandwiches were huge and delicious. Real meat, not that fake meat that Subway serves.

They are a bit expensive but well worth it for what you got.

One opened a few years ago not too far from my home. We frequented it quite a bit. They closed within a few years though.

They were great, a very high quality option. Unfortunately, ours closed, too. Subway is dreadful.

And that's the rub [pun intended]--the ingredients were quality, but they couldn't pass the costs on to the consumer.

It's a lament that I'm hearing a lot from my friends in the food industry. And their attitude is, "yo, you don't want to pay for my ingredients? Enjoy what's left of the menu."

"Their sandwiches were huge and delicious. "

They used to be big, but they changed the size of the loaves they use a while back, basically making a whole sandwich out of what used to be a half-sandwich size. It takes two of their subs now to make what used to be their large. The closest Quiznos to me is a rest stop just outside of Albany, NY on the NYS Thruway. That's an hour and a half from me. My son lives in Troy, NY, and the last time I stopped after visiting him, the cost of two of their sandwiches with tax were close to $20.00. There used to be a Quiznos about 12 miles from me, but it closed 4-5 years ago. A Five Guys took over the place.

We had a Five Guys here too, but it closed within two years. The food was too greasy for me, and way too expensive for this depressed area. A Moe's Southwest Grill is supposed to open in it's place, but who knows how long it will last. This is a small city, and we've already got two Mexican restaurants, and now a third is on its way. We've got the usual fast food, and way too many family owned pizza shops. Applebee's is the only dine-in chain restaurant in this city.

The best subs I've ever had are from DiBella's Old Fashioned Submarines. They use real lunchmeat, and their prices are very reasonable. I can buy a large sub, and get four meals out of it. Again, the closest ones to me are in Albany and Rochester, so I don't get to have them very often. They are also in Conn., Mich., Penn., and soon to be in Ohio.
