Destinos is the best sub shop I've been to in MA, which puts it high in the running for best sub shop in the US and the world. They have been doing it since '59, so clearly they have something good going. They also only make subs. No pizza, no calzones, no BS, just subs!

I worked at a sub shop and know what it takes to make good subs, and it's all here at Destinos. I eat there about 3+ times a month. I will lay out my reasons below:

1- Fresh bread and many homemade ingredients. Fresh bread makes a sub, and they use delicious Piantedosi bread (at my shop it was delivered daily, I would assume they do the same).

They also have home made meatballs that are so tender you could take your dentures out to eat them. I mean what other sub shop home makes their meatballs??

The steak is always tasty and the cold cuts are also great. As well, the (shoestring) fries are always FRESH and delicious.

2- Correct layering of ingredients. I mean it's just so important to have everything layered all nice. As well, there's never too much or too little of anything- veggies, sauce, etc. Even with the pickles, it's like they know to put a couple of extras on because some are gonna fall out while you're eating.

3- Consistency & customer service. I have not had a bad sub from there ever. They always look the same, taste the same, are out quickly and always exactly how I ordered it.

As well, they are always very nice there. Sometimes being nice to customers is not emphasized, especially in spots that have been in business and will be continue to be in business for the foreseeable future, but it clearly is there and it makes a difference! It is clear that they want you to have a delicious sub.

My ONLY complaint is that they use chunks of tomato instead of slices, and the only mistake you can make in ordering is getting a small!
