| - If you want the best BLT ever, come to Blimpie! The bacon is AMAZING...crispy, not chewy, and LOTS of it! I always get it on the parmesan bread...it's fantastic. I don't get other sandwiches there because the BLT is so darn good, but I've seen them make other kinds and they always slice the meats and cheeses fresh.
This particular store is not the closest to my house, but I drive the extra couple of miles because the one on Tatum and Shea isn't dependable. This one on 64th and Greenway never opens late or closes early. They are quick, polite, and affordable.
The only reason I don't give 5 stars is that frankly, I understand the opinions of the previous Yelpers about the owners' personalities. (Forgive me if I butcher the spellings, but Prasad and Sailu are the owners. They are Indian and they do have accents as such so you'll know if that's who you're talking to. At least one of them is there at all times. I have only ever seen 1 other person on shift at a time with them.
Personally, I am always relieved when Sailu is working as she is much friendlier to me than her husband is and she has great customer service skills. She always remembers what I want...even down to asking if I'm going to get "regular mayo or chipotle mayo this time". I love it. It makes me feel like she really cares about her customers. I love that she wraps my foot long as 2-6 inch sandwiches. This makes it easy for me to eat half right away and save the other half for later if I wish. Prasad...well...I think maybe it's a cultural thing about women that causes him to come across as kind of unfriendly to me. My ex bf and I used to go in a lot and those two men got along famously...but I see a completely different side of Prasad if I go in now on my own. He makes my sandwich well enough, but he doesn't really speak to me and it's slightly uncomfortable. I'll still go in either way though because the BLT is THAT good.
PS: They have Pepsi products so I'm an even bigger fan. I don't normally get a soda, but if I do, I want it to be Pepsi. :)
