    I never write reviews, but this is by far the worst customer service I’ve experienced. The Asian guy who works at this location shouldn’t be in customer service at all. I used to come here often because it’s close to where I work, but I’ve finally had enough. The last time I visited was on October 3. I ordered online to avoid interacting with that same guy. I got two Power Bowls to go, and when I asked for a bag, instead of being polite or apologetic that they had run out, he rudely said they didn’t have any. Imagine people ordering more food for takeout and being told that in the same rude way. And it’s not just about the bag. This branch has the worst portions compared to other Subways. I’ve been to other locations, and their portions are always great, so I know what the right serving looks like. This guy always skimps on the meat and veggies. I even saw him once giving away vegetable toppings to a Pizza Pizza employee next door. No wonder the servings are bad. It’s clearly not just me. I’ve also seen him be rude to other customers. One time, a delivery driver in front of me asked how many items were in the bag, and he dismissively said everything was already in there. The driver calmly explained he was just doing his job and double-checking, but the guy clearly didn’t care.

    This Subway is the worst one I’ve ever been to anywhere in the country. So cheap and poorly run. The only reason they stay in business is because of their location in the mall—there’s nothing else nearby. Otherwise, I doubt anyone would go there.

    Never been to a subway where I was able to order, have them make my food and pay in under 5 min with 2 people ahead of me. Very clean restaurant, and Olivia was incredibly helpful!

    This location always cheats on meat ingredients and skimps on veggies. They're manually inputting prices to raise the price on each sub, then ask for a 20% tip on the machine. Worst location in the city, no attempt at customer service. Given multiple opportunities to make things right and always argue instead of taking feedback. Avoid this place if you can - consider this review a warning to anyone considering wasting their money here.
