Cheba Hut "Toasted" Subs — Restaurant in Riverside

My sister and I tried this place for the first time a few days ago. I had heard of it, but neither of us knew what to expect. We looked over the menu, and my sister went to place our order to go. Here's what she said about her overall experience: The customer service is a 5/5. The girl who took the order was great. She was nice and professional. The location is a 4/5 considering it's in the downtown area, and she had to park on the street and walk a little to get to the restaurant. The appearance is a 5/5. It has a nice vibe, and she'd eat there if it wasn't so packed. She said the inside was full when she showed up, so I took that as a good sign.

Now onto the sandwich ratings: My sister ordered the Apollo 13 and rates it a 5/5. She says it's delicious, and she'd definitely order it again. I ordered the Kali Mist and added green bell pepper, cucumber, and banana peppers to it. It was phenomenal. I rate it a 5/5. It's a spicy sub, and I don't usually eat spicy food. However, I can handle a slight kick, and this sub was the perfect level of spice for me. It was on the milder side, so it wasn't too crazy. If you eat spicy food, this wouldn't be spicy at all to you. It is flavor packed and a good size. We both ordered an 8". I was worried the sandwich may be dry, but the sauce they put on mine was bomb! It was sauced up perfectly. Not too little, and not too much. I'd order the Kali Mist again. Everything on the menu looked soooo good, so I just may try something else next time I order.

NOTE: The sandwiches were so good, we didn't stop to take photos, but the pictures on their website...

Overpriced, basic sandwiches, chicken tasted bland and gooey, looked like tyson frozen sliced chicken. imo your just paying for a "weed" experience, staff looked like they needed a smoke break to lift their sprits. So if u want a true "stoner" exp. They won't care and just slop together a sandwich. I asked for no shrooms no onions, had to pick em out, no big deal. I can eat shrooms n onions but I just didnt want them on my sandwich. Plenty of better places to eat, I'd stay away from this one.

They have kool-aid=1 star, weed theme=1 star, the sandwichs get 3/10, bread was good, sause was good, didnt get chips idk y when I ordered a combo. They have a hipster environment, they have a bar. They need to make serious changes to the quality of the food tho since thats why your there not to get a "maui wowie" or "white widow" now if it was laced with thc it would be a different experience but the sandwiches cant be saved by cool nicknames or just a bunch of stoner stickers everywhere. Stoner food made by stoners. Just being honest not trying to sound like an upset customer, it is what it is and the people have a right to know before...

I had to deal with the rude female staff worker with a hat i wish i had gotten her name but she was extremely rude who not only argued to me about my sandwich being made wrong and had to be remade many times to the point i just didn’t even care what i got anymore so i ate it and left feeling extremely unsatisfied when i had to wait longer and longer which was basically almost an hour. Now i understand being packed and understaffed but being RUDE was what upset me when i paid and kept getting the wrong thing and tried to be respectful about bringing it up to her. On the bright side the bartender was great with her drinks and the service she provided was outstanding.

I will be coming back for the bar but not the food and i do not recommend the food aspect of this place unless you would love to wait more then 30 minutes for a mystery sandwich that you DIDNT order.

This review wasn’t meant to put anybody down but more to shed light on what felt...
