| - Upon moving to Charlotte a friend of mine was showing me around the area while we discussed the foods I was so happy to be able to try again. I mentioned how much I liked Jimmy John's and a few other similar chains. She immediately turned to me an and commented that I eat like a college kid. Yes I do! Proudly.
I had my first Jimmy John's in Dallas-Ft. Worth. It made it to San Antonio several year's back and immediately became my goto place for a great sub. I'm not sure how many times I came up with an excuse to visit that location, but when I moved to Hawaii, I was was forced into a self-inflicted abstention for 2-years. I did get to eat one sub in DC while on a trip, but it wasn't until I moved to the Steele Creek area and discovering the Ft. Mill location did my love affair with the #5 Vito begin anew.
This location is across from Baxter Village off 160. It's not the easiest store to get to, but if you are a lover of fresh bread, no obstacle will get in your way. My first visit here was in November 2016. It was probably at 730. There were several crew members on staff, but very few of them seemed to be interested in my overly-excited presence. I ordered the #5 without much fanfare and asked about their day old bread which they sell (I love their day-old bread. I pick it up to make my own sandwiches, garlic bread, &c. It is just a great addition to any meal and a huge reason I am always thinking about stopping by). They were out for the day. After a few moments my sandwich was complete and we were off. The staff didn't leave much of an impression on me.
When I got home and carefully unwrapped the original Italian sub with genoa salami, provolone, capicola, onion, lettuce, tomato & a real tasty Italian vinaigrette: Hot peppers included. It was everything I expected and the taste was simply divine.
It took a few weeks, but I headed back once again in January. Like the first time there were several team members mulling around. It just didn't feel like I was in the presence of cohesive well-oil staff. They seemed to be going through the routine, but the excited I've received from other locations has much greater. Like before we got our #5, a Soda, and some chips as well as 3 loaves of day-old bread and departed.
The meal was just as great as before. The team is efficient and I have zero complaints about the quality of the product.
Our most recent visit was this past Friday. We got our usual and picked up some loaves once again. This time we were there later and they were preparing to dump the day-old bread for the night. For the first time in three visits, the team was smiling a bit more and even offered me some of the bread since it was about to be tossed. That was a nice touch.
What can I say. This Jimmy John's is there. I visit and the service can be decent. Nothing beyond that is special aside from the those amazing subs and best day-old bread ever.
I'll be back.
