Sandwich King — Restaurant in Irvine

A superb sandwhich shop snuggled into a relaxed business complex!

After days of seeing the vibrant open sign as I drove toward Skypark Circle from Redhill, I finally decided it was time to trek across the parking lot to investigate this subtle spot.

My coworker and I strolled around the corner of the building, whereupon we were immediately aware of the savory scent emanating from the open door of Sandwhich King. Our stomachs growled with fervor at the enticing smells wafting endlessly around us. Stepping inside we were wide eyed at the simplicity, cleanliness, and peacefulness of the establishment. To our right, behind the counter, a welcoming personality erupted from the gentleman running the establishment, beckoning us closer. The wall-to-wall wide menu was crisp, legible, and easy on the eyes ; it laid out the multitude of options available to us from the skilled kitchen staff. We quickly found ourselves ordering several sandwhichs, sodas, and some of the soft chocolate chip cookies being offered.

Our meals were prepared at a respectable rate and we hurriedly returned to our own office to eat. Unwrapping my BBQ Beef sandwhich (with onion, pickle, and provolone) I came face to face with a perfectly portioned piece and reunited with a aroma not unlike those residing in the restaurant itself. The next moments are a blur as I was taken on a journey of taste few expect to experience from such shops - I was not disappointed at all with my choice. The flavor unfolded on my tongue and the soft, yet crisp, bread cracked lightly with each gentle bite. Before I knew it the delectable sandwhich was gone, my only regret being I didn't get a large (but the small was already big and honestly the perfect size to not be overstuffed). I rewarded my good decision by unpacking the 4" wide chocolate chip cookie I had also bought.

5/5 would recommend, 5/5 I will...

A real sandwich shop that makes sandwiches on actual sandwich bread, not a hoagie roll. Sandwiches taste like they came from your Grandma's kitchen.

Spent $30 on two regular sized sandwiches and two sodas. More expensive than Subway but far better quality!

The breakfast Burrito is fantastic and contains potatoes not greasy hashbrowns. They are an ample meal if you are hungry, and can make two meals for a...

I love to pay for delicious food but these sandwiches are just okay. They are certainly overpriced, even for Irvine. We left paying a total of $32 for one regular sized and one large sandwich with a piece of carrot cake. Too bad, we just moved into the area and we frequent our local eateries. I understand they want to make a buck but this is...
