A lot of hoopla went around a couple weeks ago with the opening of Jersey Mike’s in Brea so I decided to see what all the fuss was about after the fan fare of the grand opening had subsided.\u00a0 Jersey Mike’s is a franchise that has been around for years, with the first Jersey Mike’s opening in 1956 in New Jersey and now over 300 locations nationwide!\u00a0 Mike’s is predominately located on the East Coast with only recently opening in California the past couple years.\u00a0 Quality wise they are above just about anything Subway, Quiznos, and even Togo’s puts on the plate.\u00a0 I would most compare Mike’s to that of the local deli, with fresh sliced meats and cheeses to go along with store cooked bread.\"img_0451.jpg\"<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0Their menu rages from wraps, cold subs, hot subs, and salads.<\/p>\n

Being that this was my first visit I decided to take it simple and order something I would order anywhere else, the #8 Club Sub ($7.75 for regular size) which consists of turkey, ham, provolone, bacon, mayo.\u00a0 The sub had just about the right amount of everything on it, 3 thin slices of provolone, about 5 ham and 4 turkey (or maybe it was 5 turkey I was distracted as I talked to the owner), then piled with green lettuce (I stress this because I’m so used to seeing predominately white lettuce at many sub shops), tomatoes, vinegar, olive oil, spices, and my added choice of banana peppers, mayo and bacon.\u00a0 It reminded me a lot of subs I used to get at the Sub Stop over in my hometown of Stanton, so it really hit the spot and filled something I’ve been missing.\u00a0 Along with the sub I got some Mrs. Vickie’s chips and a soda which brought my lunch up to right around $10.00, before tax, which isn’t cheap when you compare it to Subway but this isn’t the crap they try to pass off as fresh.\"img_0456.jpg\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Overall I was satisfied with my meal, I would go there again, and I already know what I will get on my next visit, the #20 Grilled Pastrami Reuben, and then after that I’ll have to try one of the cheesesteaks and see how to hold up compared to Philly’s Best.<\/p>\n\n
