Update (2017): Quiznos is no longer operating in Malaysia. :( It's a pity, because their sandwiches were really good.

I bet you're feeling hungry right now just looking at this temptingly juicy sandwich. (¬‿¬)

If you're a frequent of 1 Utama like me, you'd probably have noticed the new eatery called Quiznos Subs which opened recently, located right opposite Papparich and just a few doors away from TGI Friday's.


At their grand opening last week, I had the opportunity to find out for myself how good the world famous Quiznos toasted subs tasted.

Interior of the outlet

Work area where the subs are prepared

Established in Denver, Colorado in 1981, Quiznos Sub is the pioneer in toasted sandwiches. Offering unique, chef-inspired submarine sandwiches (also known as 'subs'), soups and salads in an enhanced chic ambience, Quiznos maestros carefully craft their mouthwatering and flavourful subs using butcher-quality meats, all-natural cheeses, chef-designed signature sauces and toasted artisan bread.

Preparing the sub

Wait for it to come out through the toaster

Adding the finishing touches

After placing your order, the first half of your sub (meats and cheese placed on bread) is prepared. It is then put through the toaster (yay for melty cheese!), following which the vegetables and sauces are added.

Baja Chicken Sub

First up is the Baja (pronounced as 'ba-ha') Chicken sub (6" RM 14.90), which is a combination of chicken, smoky beef bacon, all-natural cheddar, onions, Baja sauce and chipotle mayo, laid on your choice of white, wheat or Rosemary Parmesan artisan bread. The slightly sweet and tangy Baja sauce and rich chipotle mayo went very well with the crunchy onions, generous portion of chicken and slices of beef bacon. Of course, everything tastes better with melty gooey cheese, ha!

Zesty Steak Sub

Next, we had the Zesty Steak sub (6" RM 15.90), one of their signature subs, which had beef slices, mozzarella and cheddar cheese, caramelised onions, sautéed mushrooms, honey bourbon mustard, and zesty grille sauce atop a bed of white bread. If you love meat and gooey cheese, this is definitely the one for you. The mixture of caramelised onions and juicy sautéed mushrooms complemented the perfectly sliced beef steak, and brought together by the mustard and zesty sauce. 

This is what I call a beautiful mess

We were also invited to try their new addition to the menu - pizza! Basically, their pizzas are open-faced, slightly crispier, flat bread versions of their subs, so you can order your favourite flavours in pizza form. The pizza was accompanied by a helping of their air-fried waffle fries.

Did I mention the pizza is rectangular?

Honey Mustard Chicken Pizza

What we have here is the Honey Mustard Chicken Pizza (pizzas are priced from RM 7.90 onwards), which has toppings of chicken, beef bacon, Swiss cheese, tomatoes, onions and a honey mustard dressing, all on a perfectly-toasted rectangular pizza base. There was so much chicken on the pizza that it was literally falling off the sides. I kid you not. Each pizza is cut into 4 slices, so if you're with 2-3 other people, this would be a great appetiser or snack. I absolutely loved this one.

Air-fried Waffle Fries

Yup, seems that it's air-fried using the same toaster that toasts the subs

The air-fried waffle fries can be ordered a la carte (RM 6.90) or with a drink (RM 5/6) to accompany your sub. Unlike your regular fries, these are air-fried, which means less oil and less greasiness. Proven with my own eyes + tastebuds. They're just as crispy as your regular deep-fried fries when served fresh, but they do soften and become less crispy after a while. Best to consume as fast as possible, which isn't that hard. :P

Om nom nom nom ψ(｀∇´)ψ

Are the subs worth a try? Yes. Will I be back for more? Definitely.
