Opinions de Grinders Submarine Sandwiches Alameda
I am not exaggerating when I say Grinders was the sole, driving force behind our 'Bay Area Comeback Food Tour' after our geographically misguided move out of state. My boyfriend’s joy was bordering spiritual; he hadn't had this particular sandwich in twenty years, and these babies were appearing to him in dreams. Also, a rousing shoutout to the owner, Peter. He is genuinely one of the funniest people you will ever meet. Peter, you made our pilgrimage back feel exactly as magical as our childhood memories. I will be back every time we return to the Bay Area, and I will be relentlessly shilling for a Grinders sub for the rest of my life.
I don't get on this side of 13 very often but when I do I always stop at Grinders Submarine Sandwich Spot for an Amazing lunch! I had just dropped off Pernod Leer's Warthog, Walter up at his compound atop Broadway Terrace, and thought I'd bop across hwy 13 for a Grinder, and it proved to be a great decision because my sandwich was Heroic in every sense of the word. ☆☆☆☆☆
The reason why this is such a good sandwich shop is that all you need to do is ask for what you want. Simple. It's even easier because the owner will go through a bunch of sandwich ingredients and ask if you want them. Yes , no easy peasy.

Amazing sandwich shop. Able to customize everything that goes on the sandwich and the person that takes your order is extremely thorough. Loved it!!!!!!
Know what you want, be prepared, get in get out. Really enjoyed the ordering, no faffing about. Sandwich was solid, bread was good. Ingredients were a little underwhelming, but for the speed and price I'm not complaining. Big fan.
I was born and raised on the East Coast, where grinders were invented, and this is the best grinder I’ve had in California. The owner is pleasant and super friendly. It’s great to have a no nonsense straight shooter who takes his business seriously. He provides a service to this community and needs an award.

Great simple sandwich shop. And the proprietor is passionate about his sandwiches! He says he imports his turkey from South Carolina and has a special recipe for mayo. Default is served on a hotdog bun, not sure if you can choose anything else- next time I will ask. Cute neighborhood too.

Really unique but delicious, traditional submarine sandwich place. Popped in on our drive home and was surprised when we walked into what felt like a closet. They definitely specialize in take away orders and quick pick ups, but they make a mean sandwich. you won’t find a regular menu, just be prepared to answer a lot of questions and you’ll get a high quality sub!

Sandwich was great, but even so, it was too overpriced to get very often. Please make it more affordable and I will come back, but as is, I can’t spend 50 bucks on 2 sandwiches and chips
Sandwich was good. But don't think I'll be back. My 9 inch sandwich came out to 19.56. Pretty much if you want to add anything to the sandwich will take it there. I think I added bacon. I guess maybe more upfront of add on price. I'm guessing the basic bread and meat and lettuce will be around $14. I guess it's my fault when he asked what I wanted on the sandwich and I'm just saying yes or know. Next thing I know the screen said 19.56 lol
While the subs are decent, the service sucks. This guy has had a chip on his shoulder since the 90s. Also guaranteed to make women feel uncomfortable. Learn better people skills, and don’t charge $30 for a sub.

I was very disappointed with my experience here. The person who greeted me was very friendly and lively and got me excited to eat here but did make a weird comment about me “following the stereotype” when I said I am vegetarian. I didn’t pay it too much mind but that should’ve been my first red flag and should’ve walked out then. Then he got me excited again, saying they have a very special bread that no one’s complained about for 30 years. Imagine my surprise when it looks like a Costco hot dog bun. I paid extra to get avocado, extra cheese, and veggies in my sandwich, coming out to about $25 for what you see in the picture

Perfect...if you like salt. Even when I specifically asked for no salt and pepper something in the filling was almost inedible for its saltiness. Service is slow and clumsy. He reads off the options rather than the customer picking them from a buffet (like Subway). Then we wait "ten minutes" while the sub is assembled. Easily 15 minutes to get a sub. And there is no atmosphere save storage room. Cases of drinks line the very very tiny closet that serves as the restaurant. And no dine in at all. Not recommended; Subway is just a couple blocks down the street, go there.
I keep trying this place because I want to believe they can make a good sandwich, but it is just so bad. The ingredients are basic and the sandwiches just don't taste good. That's the bottom line. Aside from that the ordering process is stupidly overwhelming. He speaks quickly to make it all speedy, but there are 100 questions coming at you at once, about every little thing. And at the end of the day, it's still not yummy. I'm finally going to give up.

Rude owner. Sandwich fell apart, bad value. Sandwich fell apart. Meat is very low quality.
By far the most expensive sandwich I’ve ever had!! 💵 💵 💵 I thought $15 or $16 for a sandwich was expensive. But $31 dollars???? This is a one time mistake and I will not be back a second time. Save your time and hard earned money 💵. It is not worth it! The place was a mess. Looked like a storage room. I peaked in and had to ask if they were open. I thought maybe they were closed and were in the process of restocking and cleaning up. This is the lowest rating I’ve ever given. I gave 2 stars for customer service due to the ladies that were making the sandwiches, they were nice. The sandwich 🥪 was fine. But definitely not good enough to justify charging $31 including a soda. For $31 you can buy an XL pizza 🍕 somewhere else and feed a whole family!! Not a fan of the tall skinny man there either. He might be the owner. I asked him for hand sanitizer, he wouldn’t even provide that! No apologies nothing! Everybody gives you hand sanitizer, it’s a basic necessity! I find him cunning. Just my opinion.
1 star for customer service and speed. Honestly was deeply disappointed with this place. Low effort to make a quality product., And very expensive for what you get. I ate half just outside the place and almost threw it out.

The sandwich was average at best. The reason I’m giving this place a one star, is because all their chips being sold , are expired. Came back to let them know to I needed a replacement and the owner asked if they tasted good. I said no then he said I can grab another. No Bueno
food- first off, it made me sick and i had to leave work. worst “philly cheesesteak” ever: hot dog bug with sesame seeds, dry/tasteless “steak” and the cheese was microwaved melted provolone. hardly able to eat it, which was a good instinct because it made me one with the bathroom. service- lots of pointless chatter, not reading the room of not wanting to chat and do trivia, wasting my lunch break to be talked and then wait for the people after me to be talked at at instead of quick service. atmosphere- nowhere to sit, only enough room for a couple of people to stand inside
Paid over $20 for a mediocre hot dog bun with supermarket deli meat all while the cashier insulted my choices

Not good at all. They say they are a "Neighborhood shop with a no-nonsense vibe." This place is actually complete nonsense. The Google menu is incorrect, and you can expect to pay about three times as much as what is listed there. What comes standard on a sandwich and what you have to add at an extra cost is made overly complicated by the owner and in store menu, and they do not list what the extras cost. Not only do they charge extra for every little thing, but then they don't even put those extras on. I ordered bacon and provolone on mine, and when I opened it up at home it was missing. There is no reason in the world a 12 inch sandwich should come out to $27, even with a couple add ons.
