| - My husband and I love Capriotti's, and have been regular customers of the Craig Road/Home Depot shop for a decade. We can honestly say that we have never had a bad meal. The consistency of high quality subs and the great variety make this a place we can't resist, no matter what our bathroom scales may say! We've never had guests that we haven't treated to Capriotti's, and we've never had a rude encounter with any of the staff.
Some marvelous subs to try - great with a group, where everyone shares:
Capistram--melt-in-your mouth pastrami with no gristle or excess fat. Both the swiss and provolone cheeses add another layer of flavor to the pastrami. The Russian dressing pulls it all together. The Cole Slaw adds texture and juice. Bibs might be advised, since this sub can be drippy-licious.
The Bobbie -- Thanksgiving on a sub, just the way we like it: Turkey, cranberry sauce, stuffing and mayo. When we have Thanksgiving at someone's home, and we don't get leftovers, we like to stop at Caparotti's the next day so we can pretend we're enjoying all those yumdiddy-great leftovers.
Cole Turkey -- a "Bobbie" without the cranberry sauce or stuffing. For those who want to assuage their after-Thanksgiving guilt by avoiding sweet cranberry sauce and an extra bread product. I still like it loaded full-tilt-boogie with the entire table of treats!
Slaw Be Jo - thinly sliced roast beef, tender and moist, lathered with Russian dressing, mayo and their sweet-savory cole slaw, topped with provolone cheese. It's a toss up when you're in a beef mood whether the Slaw Be Jo or the Cheese Steak is the tastiest. We normally rely on a coin flip, since our taste buds crave both!
I don't do red sauce so I rely on the opinion of guests from out of town who tell us they love the Sausage sub with marinara sauce, as well as the meatball sub. I'm also not an italian meat and hot pepper fan, so again, I rely on the opinions of those who love this combination.
Yes, I hear you. What the heck am I doing living in Las Vegas if I don't love Italian or Mexican food? Fortunately, at Capriotti's, there are choices to suit everyone's taste buds.
I've yet to taste a better cheesesteak anywhere in the valley, nor a finer hot pastrami.
Note to service dog users: the staff is welcoming to service dogs, and you won't have any problem with access. They keep their distance, practice good service dog etiquette by not trying to pet the service dogs, and always take time to remark about how well mannered they are.
I only wish I had some photos to share, but the truth is, I'm always so anxious for that first bite that I forget to aim the phone.
