"I normally don't write reviews, but could not hold my tongue after my last experience here. Before the recent management change renovation, I loved Hungry Hero's sandwiches and atmosphere (I live right around the block and came here very often). In my most recent visit today (post-renovations), I witnessed the manager (who is likely the owner) talk down at his worker in a very uncomfortable and unacceptable way. I will not let my money go to businesses (even if the food is good) that do not treat their workers with respect (at the minimum), unless I see a substantial change."

Consistently one of the best subs that I’ve had. Sandwiches are HUGE!

A hidden gem in the neighborhood! The bread and ingredients are incredibly fresh. I typically try to avoid sandwiches, but I really enjoyed the chicken cutlets! I will definitely come back! View menu

Wowzers! Ordered 8 sandwiches online and although it did take a bit longer than was quoted online for pick up time it was so worth the short wait. Everyone loved their sandwiches, so big you can make two meals or share and the workers were working so hard. Excellent!

This place is the last refuge for great value in the area! They serve fresh bread made to order, and the portion sizes are generous! There's no shrinkflation here—one sandwich is likely enough to feed two people. I can finish three-quarters for lunch and save the remaining quarter for a snack later! I'll definitely be coming back!

Please learn how to make an Italian hero! The Grande Pepperoni with Hot Dry Capocollo, Genoa Salami, and Picante Provolone Cheese, topped with lettuce, tomato, red onion, olive oil, red wine vinegar, and sweet or hot peppers is what you need! It's disappointing that this is the only sandwich shop in NYC that doesn't seem to understand how to prepare an Italian combo when asked.

Wow. Really pleased with this. Split a chicken parmigiana hero. Delicious. Absolutely must split with someone or be really hungry. Excellent quality chicken, great tasting sauce, and just the right amount of cheese. I wish the bread was a tad better (got whole wheat), but was definitely fresh just didn’t live up to rest of sandwich. Will try the other bread the next time. Go hungry and enjoy. Note that there is NO seating inside or out.
