  • Question
    Will they charge for sauces?

  • Question
    How long does it take for them to make a meatball marinara sandwich?

    The same amount of time it takes for them to make any other sub. The meatball marinara is kept hot on the counter next to the other hot meats. Asking for this is the same as asking for any other sandwich, hot or otherwise.
  • Question
    What kind of peppers do they use when you ask for hot peppers? They are kind of diced and colorful?

  • Question
    Any restriction as to the amount of any specific veggie that a customer may want on a sandwich? The server was counting spinach leaves and jalapeno peppers as if there was a number she couldn't exceed.

    Nope. The worker was simply estimating the cost of your meal. Extra vegetables and meat cost more money.
