Not what it used to be when the shop was apart of the plaza. Ordered food and when I asked for the total amount the guy said " I'll tell you when you get here" and I asked "why can't you tell me over the phone?". He replied " can I just tell you here?" And I said sure. I didn't care about the price just wanted to know because I was trying to rather pay in cash than card. Weird to me on why that couldn't had been said over the phone. Food wasnt good couldn't compare to before at all. Maybe different cooks ? Different style ?

Ordered over the phone for pickup. I asked the price and was told a different one at pick up due to card transaction instead of cash. Asked to honor that price because it wasn’t mentioned at all. Was told flat out no. Bad customer service point blank period.

I’m use to the old location but decided to try this new location out because big blues WAS a see you next time place. I’m so disappointed, my cheesesteak had no flavors at all and was no bigger than a PnJ sandwich in thickness.. sorry to say but they will not see me later.

Big blue subs, SUB-par. So mid and HIGHLY unimpressive. $20 for a whole “big blue” sub and MAYBE $5 worth of food. Generic coke cuts, a single slice of cheese on each section, not a few layers like most are used to. The meat was piled in the center of the bread so it looked thick but when spread out, same level of meat as a subway sandwich. So, I ordered two turkey subs, a chicken cutlet, and a big blue, 4 chips, 1 Pepsi. $100. Absolutely not worth more than $50 at best. I asked specifically for one turkey with American cheese and one with Swiss cheese. I got Swiss AND American on both and neither person likes the other type of cheese.I also asked specifically “for your corned beef, do you make it or is it like a boars head slab?”. The gentleman replied “no, it’s a special corned beef we order and have to cut”. Yeah, they all have to be cut. I get it. It was generic slab corned beef, salty AF and sliced.So, this place would be just OK if it were half the cost. $100 for some mediocre sandwiches just isn’t it. Never again.

So disappointing!!! The move and the new staff not cool. First, the last asked me what to put in a salad, my chicken was dry and flavorless. My family will not be

Been coming to the old location for many years, but won’t be coming back to this new location anymore. We need the Latino cooks backkk!!!! . My chicken sandwich was dryer than the sahara desert.
Excellent service and the staff is very helpful and accommodating when we order lunch for a sales meeting of 4 to 60 people. Thanks for all that you do!!!

I was in Linden for a funeral and got to the train station an hour early. I'd never been to Linden, so I walked down to Wood Avenue in search of lunch and happened upon Big Blue Subs. I'm glad I did. The first thing that hit me was how sparkling clean the place was. The second thing was that they had Italian hot dogs, a delicacy unobtainable in Brooklyn and one I hadn't had in over 40 years. For the uninitiated, an Italian hot dog is a deep-fried beef hot dog (two if you're ordering a double as I did) smothered in grilled peppers and onions and topped with 1/2" thick deep-fried potato discs all nestled in a pillowy-soft pizza roll. I ordered a double and was told to take a seat at one of the sparkling clean tables and it would be brought out to me. My first impression was that this is one huge meal. I started in on the potato discs. The were nicely crispy outside and soft and nearly creamy inside. they were, despite being deep-fried, decidedly not greasy. Once I got through them, I started to eat the double dogs smothered in onions and peppers in that soft, fluffy roll. Despite being famished when I walked through the door, I couldn't get more than halfway through my perfect double Italian hot dog before I had to throw in the towel. I've had more than a few Italian hot dogs in my mis-spent youth, and they were usually soggy, greasy, delicious messes. My Big Blue Subs Double Italian Hot Dog was absolute perfection, It was not greasy, it was not soggy and even the potatoes were perfectly fried, but not greasy. If I'm ever back in Linden, I will definitely return!
THE MEN ARE NICE. THEY ALWAYS MAKE IT
