    I got the roast beef grinder.

    Quality of meat and bread are incredible. I didn't care much for the mayo, mustard, or cheese they used. I wish I could've gone back to try a few different things before I left. If I ever make it back to the area, I will definitely swing in for lunch. This is a great place to stop in if you are in a hurry and on a budget.

    Very friendly people and fast- I liked the rolls and the prices. It does what it should, by providing a fast cheap lunch in a clean atmosphere. The meats are sort of a cheaper cut, and somewhat limited amount on your sub. Especially on a larger roll.
    There's a place in town that uses boars head, but it was closed. I'd return to Em's but I won't make a special trip. It's just average fair on a big A bun.

    I went here every day whenever I had job training in Somerset. Always pleasant service, the subs are the best around!

    Delicious subs/food/snacks! Great place for a quick bite but I do not like to eat-in...great for take out! I eat here at least once if not more a month because I work near by.

    I find it weird that a local chain sub shop has taken up shop in what was once an old Sunoco gas station.  Why?  Because the space outside for parking is drastically higher than what can be accommodated inside for seating.  This place is just odd at best.  Like it's still trying to figure out whether it's trying to be a sub shop or a convenience store.  Look at the pictures, it's a very confusing setup.

    The food is a bit lackluster.  I wasn't impressed that much.  I order basically and Italian sub and was very underwhelmed.  I will give them props because they make these fresh right down to slices their own meat.  By the time I reached my seat after getting my drink my sub was delivered to me.  It wasn't bad, but it was missing something, it tasted bland to me.  I'm all for smaller local chains, but this is not a place for me in the future.

    **Other things to note about this location: lottery can be played here, unisex bathroom, cooler full of drinks, small sides pre-prepared.
