| - If my stomach had a Hall of Fame, it would have a section dedicated to Capriotti's.
Last night, I went to the Tempe location for the first time, and man-o-man, was I in for a treat.
I've been a fan of this chain for a couple years. I discovered a location near my home in Las Vegas and ever since, I have been a huge fan!
Of course, I hopped on my trusty Yelp app, and made sure that the Tempe location was the closest to Scottsdale (for now...there is one coming soon), but then...like a Coke machine in the middle of the freaking Sahara desert, I saw it....a YELP DEAL....for CAPRIOTTI'S! SWEET BABY JESUS! HELL FREAKING YEAH!
I paid $7 for a $15 deal and parkoured my way down to Tempe like it was nobody's business. Parking was a bit of a problem since it was a game night. I also had to deal with the traffic from the ASU/USC traffic, but I love Capriotti's enough to brave any kind of traffic.
The shop is small, but nice. Two TV's. Enough seating. Friendly staff.
Tonight's addition to my imaginary Hall of Fame: Large Cole-Turkey with Ham. Yeah, I added the ham. I'm renegade like that. I guess you can say that I just go with it.
The Cole Turkey is: pulled turkey, cole slaw, provolone, russian dressing, and mayo. So, so good.
If you are a Capriotti's virgin, the large is a 20' sandwich. It's no joke. It can feed four people. I had my sandwich cut into four pieces. I ate one of them, put the other three in my fridge.
All in all, I really like this location. Staff, food....everything. Perfect. If I ever come back to Tempe, this is my spot...even over Jimmy John's. Yes.
Capriotti's GREATER THAN Jimmy John's
