Southern Subs — Restaurant in North Fort Myers

Review written May 2025: …And unfortunately back to 2 stars. After four tries, it’s just unfortunately way too inconsistent. I’ve tried them 4 times; 2 times have been really bad, 1 was okay and 1 was great. Those odds just aren’t that great. This last time I ordered, which was today, the bread was so stale…I had to pull the sandwich from my mouth with entirely too much force to bite the bread apart. I flipped the sandwich over to try and eat it like that, I don’t know why lol, I thought maybe it would help but the entire bottom piece of bread was so soaked in mayo it was completely soggy and disintegrating. The bacon also taste pretty cheap, not sure if it’s freshly made or if it’s just like the heat and serve bacon but it sorta tastes like that cheap heat and serve bacon. It’s so unfortunate because the sandwich was nice looking but after looking back now, I can see how the bacon is just in a clump on one part of the sandwich. The tomato also wasn’t ripe at all, it shouldn’t have been used on the sandwich.

I had previously given them a try twice and wasn’t totally blown away. However this time, delicious and exactly what I was craving! This time the Classic Club had perfectly crispy bacon and lots of it, great tasting fresh turkey, fresh lettuce, tomato and mayo and this time the bread had a nice toasted outside and wasn’t spongy or burned. It was a very delicious sandwich! I also got a pickle this time, which was a nice little side to go with the club! Definitely will try a new sandwich next time since I’ve tried the club a few times, they have some really tasty sounding sandwiches that will be fun to eat through!

While I have been getting delivery, I did have interaction with them on Instagram and I had let them know that my two previous clubs weren’t very good and I was sad as I love supporting good local businesses and they wrote me back with an apology and said they hoped I would give them another try…it influenced me to definitely try again and I’m so happy I did! Looking forward to my next...

Wow! What a shocker! I'd never seen this little hole-in-the-wall Sub shop across Byshore Road from Walmart in North Fort Myers, and didn't think it looked like much from the outside. Boy, was I wrong!

We went in and my son (as usual) ordered a Reuben sandwich. I asked the man working there what he would order if he came in? He told me the Philly Steak sandwich. I said OK, and was I ever glad! That was one of the best Phillies I've ever eaten! (well, half of it was. I could only eat half because it was so big! I'll eat the other half tomorrow!

My son's Reuben, according to him, was big, messy and full of yummy Reuben flavor! He also told me his was the SMALL Reuben! Lol! The big one is even bigger...1/2 lb pastrami and 1/2 lb corned beef! I pity the person who tries to eat that much food in one sitting, although my son would love to try!

If you haven't stopped in, do yourself a favor and get one of the best subs around. He has a rule that you get a free chips and canned soda if you write your first review. It doesn't have to be a good one, just honest. Don't worry. If my first trip in is any indication, yours will be as...

I've been coming here at least once a week since I first tried it a few months ago. I cannot believe I haven't left a review yet! It is hands down the best sub & sandwich place in the area. I've tried so many of their sandwiches and have absolutely loved each of them. My wife sticks with the Italian Sub each time. But I have to tell you, they have the absolute best Reuben I've ever had. I don't like to order Reubens when I go out because they are typically soggy and the sauerkraut is usually raw and bitter. That is not the case here! Their southern Reuben has corned beef AND pastrami, and the sauerkraut was perfect. My wife even liked it and she HATES Reubens. I liked it so much that I got it again last night after having just had one a few days ago. It is definitely not a dine-in place both for limited seating and parking. But the takeout is fabulous! I cannot recommend this place enough. When my kids were visiting, they even preferred this over Pub-Subs that they had to get while in Florida. Check out their menu, they...
