Great locally owned spot with awesome service! Employees are very helpful and can help you create the best sandwich. Portions come in ounces of meat and they are very generous. You can get multiple different types of breads (toasted or not) and wraps. My personal favorite is the BLATT which is bacon, lettuce, avocado, tomato, and turkey! I did try the tuna salad and the pickle taste was way too strong, won't be getting that again. This place can fill up at lunch, but usually plenty of seats.
This is a no frill sandwich joint. Sandwich are always solid. Super flavorful and never a bad experience
Drove by this place so many times on my lunch break and today I stopped in! It's a local spot in Mesa and they're doing things with a high standard. Went in for lunch on a Friday and it was pretty busy! Got the Knuckle Sandwich of course and a freshly baked chocolate chip cookie. They have tons of sides and deserts to choose from. They also support other local restaurants too and sell their product there. It's a great place that feels welcoming. Stop in and see for yourself!
Out of bounds 100% YES to Knuckle Sandwiches! We ordered the BLATT, Philly Cheesesteak & a bowl of chili. The restaurant was packed & our food was still ready super fast. I also highly recommend the Au Jus sandwich. Everything at Knuckle sandwiches is delicious! The service is excellent too! It feels like the way things should, with old school values! You're greeted & treated like family.
Watch out, look out! Epic sandwich coming to your face! I have been going to knuckles for a minute now, and just realized I had not posted a review - bad on me!! Knuckles consistently delivers awesome sandwiches. I have not had a bad sandwich and I have tried multiple offerings from Knuckles. If you want a challenge, give the Dagwood a try!! So good, but I won't lie, I was unable to finish this behemoth! In the area and you have a hole in your stomach, stop by Knuckles STAT!
This is a very nice place to grab a meal. Be advised they stop serving breakfast at 1030, which is too bad because they had some very good dishes on the menu. So we ended up having lunch which was very good. The Reuben sandwich with pastrami was very good. The chicken salad sandwich was also a winner. The staff was super friendly and were the ones that recommended the sandwiches... winner! The menu was pretty entertaining too. They had cute names for the different dishes. They also have "diabetic cookies" which were good.
I was craving a sandwich and a soup moment with the cooling temps this week! Decided to check out Knuckle Sandwiches and they did not disappoint! They have a massive menu, from classics, paninis, wraps, specialty sandwiches, classic deli sides, baked goods and even various size options for some of the sandwich options. I placed an order for pick up, you can utilize their Yelp page directly or their website. I went for a 9 oz of the Hot chicken, which came with grilled chcken, peppers,jalapenos, cheese, lettuce and I added avocado. Along with a cup of their soup of the day, chicken tortilla and their seasonal loak, pumpkin bread. I placed it in advance for a scheduled pick up and they send a link and email with tracking so you know exactly where they are at in the process! Parking is a breeze as they are in a shared lot with ample spots. The inside had plenty of seating if dining in. The service was extremely friendly and handed me my to go bag. I immediately duh in upon getting home and really enjoyed it overall! The sandwich was huge, I ate half. Came with generous protein and was extremely flavorful. The tortilla soup was okay, not my fave, but still tasty, The pumpkin loaf was extremely moist and the streusel topping was delish, but I think i would go with a different treat next time! I found the prices to be extremely reasonable as well! Overall it was delish and they seem to have a lot of options, including GF and are a great option for any sandwich cravings or needs!
I was at Bashas next door and decides to stop in for a sandwich. I've had their Ceaser Salad with chicken before and it was good but nothing special but it's salad. Their chocolate cake and Zucchini bread are great choices for a sweet tooth. My son liked the pasta salad and I enjoyed their sandwiches. Portion was big and filling The staff was average no one went above or beyond but at least they were courteous. I like the decor and it's got plenty of seating.
This is great place if you're in a rush and want a really good sandwich/salad/food. My husband and chicken salad sandwich and he said it's the best he has ever had, I had the be checked sandwich and it is quite tasty and large price are good and staff is friendly and ready to answer any questions.
We stopped here for lunch wanting to try something new. The food is fresh, you can order small, medium or large sized sandwiches. We both went with the small (which were plenty for us), they come with a pickle slice. These sandwiches are definitely stuffed full of whatever you order. (Reminds me of good NY deli sandwiches). Prices are really reasonable. We had barely sat down and they were bringing our order out. So fast. Ample seating area too. On the way out I got to talking with the owner Roscoe, apparently he owned it previously when it was Schlotzsky's too, was never there then. Really nice guy, runs a really nice place. Stop in and say hi. I know that I'll be back.
