Firehouse Subs Long Shoals — Restaurant in Asheville

Anyone who has had Firehouse subs and still does not believe think or say that this is the best subs they've ever had, then they don't know anything at all about subs. I know that everybody has different tastes and there are people who have a general taste which is usually based on an average of what all people combined like or don't like and I like to feel that I am one of those. Firehouse subs is by far and away IN EVERY SINGLE WAY THAT YOU CAN SEE OR TASTE A SUB SANDWICH, FIREHOUSE SUBS IS HANDS DOWN THE BEST THEIR SANDWICHES CANNOT BE TOPPED BY ANYONE AT ALL!!!! NO SUB SHOP ANYWHERE IS BETTER THAN FIREHOUSE SUBS!! The only negative about Firehouse subs is that they are also by far and away the most expensive sub shop you will ever eat at. But I love them so much that I don't care if I have to empty out my bank account to have the world's greatest tasting sub sandwiches. And for those of you who still don't know, yes, firehouse subs was created founded and perfected by actual fireman from Orlando, Florida... Thank you for responders for all that you do and for creating the greatest subs...

As you can imagine, it wasn't enough food like it should have been. It tasted great, I'm not putting down the quality. I wanted more. Maybe I need to order double meat next time? But it definitely didnt look like the photo or other subs I've had there in comparison to the amount of filling between the bread. Staff was friendly and they were closing up, so I didnt call because I figured they were already...

Meh. Called the store before arrival to see if the store was open. No one answered so I figured they were slammed. Nope, no one here and three people behind the counter. As I am typing this I can here them laughing about turning the "open" sign off early (about 25 minutes from what the door hours state). Also, and this is just a personal preference, it always makes me nervous when the two guys making my sandwich are whispering and laughing while they are actively working on my sandwich. Minor points deducted because this is a personal preference. Food came out on a reasonable time and the staff acknowledged me leaving, but did not acknowledge my arrival. No big deal I suppose, but it seems that the higher than average cost for a sandwich should pay for somewhat better than...
