Quiznos had amazing quality when they first opened but it dropped when they tried to compete with the subway $5 footlong deal. They should have differentiated themselves as the premium sandwich brand because while subway is pretty good, Quiznos early on was a whole other level. Me and my housemate at the time used to go there and order 2 subs, one for now and one for later (that often worked out to be right after the first one was done, in practice).
There were some locations that stayed open around here for a like a decade after, but it was always disappointing going there. They were still better than subway but only marginally.
I like Firehouse Subs these days. Not quite as good as Quiznos at its peak, but closer to that than Subway (which was always better than Mr Sub).
Absolutely this. Subway pre sliced meats and (at the time) lack of toasting was a perfect thing to target. 'Yeah you can pay $5 for a sub the size of a size ten foot with meats that come from a factory, but you get what you pay for. Here at Quiznos all our meats and cheese are sliced fresh in store, the bread is always fresh, and every sub gets perfectly toasted to order. Try us and see the difference.' (then show a wimpy subway sandwich next to a cheesy melty meaty quiznos sub).
Really is too bad. Here in CT, Jersey Mikes is expanding- their deal is they slice the meat right in front of you so it's fresher. They also do fresh grilled cheese steaks on a flat top grill, those are WAY better than the subway 'cardboard tray of single serving meat' approach.
Agreed except I don't recall a time that subway didn't toast their sandwiches, though you had to ask specifically of you wanted the veggies toasted since they usually just did the meats and cheese.
Quizno's had a steak/cheddar sub with this mustardy BBQ sauce that I can still remember pretty vividly.
One of my usuals was a prime rib with this sauce that I can't even remember other than it was delicious. I think the other one I used to get was a phily cheesesteak, though can't remember for sure. They were very popular around that time, I remember McDonald's actually had the best philly cheasesteak sauce at the time from the ones I tried, but Quiznos would have had a better overall sandwich if they did do one.
