The food was over priced in my opinion. For the size and meat amounts and the selection for toppings. I remember going regularly to the American hero in Loris SC. They had decent sizes and were more filling. The inflation must have made a difference in the portions of meat.

The food was okay. I don't think it was worth the money, especially since the size and limited option for toppings. Last time I visited in Loris,SC the sandwich was amazing, filling and size was appropriate. Now they charge more then before, and their menu online isn't updated. So the prices are way more. I would rather spend 30 bucks at publix for their pubsubs!!

American Hero makes a great sandwich, and the staff are friendly. The meat was fresh cut, and I really enjoyed it.
The restaurant itself could use some renovations/deep cleanings, but the food prep area was very clean, which is the most important I reckon.
I would also like to see an expanded garden section available; there wasnt much variety to the available toppings. The bread could also use an improvement. I would really like to see turkey, ham, and roast beef as a menu item. It's a bummer to have to pay 17 dollars (due to the extra charge) for a sandwich to get that combination of meats that are stapled at others delis.
Overall, the sandwiches here are really good and staff were great, but there is room for improvement in other areas.

My sub was really good, and workers were friendly. The atmosphere was less than stellar...but I'll support small mom and pop over the big guy anyday!

Not busy when I came around 10.30 a.m. Roast beef was excellent. If I'm in the area again I will definitely stop in.

I didn't care for the steak and cheese sub. However, I did enjoy the carrot cake. The cake wasn't super sweet (the icing was sweeter than the cake), which is what I enjoyed the most about it.

UPDATED 12 October 2024: I can't rave about this place enough. Staff is awesome, friendly and helpful!
Sandwiches are fantastic. Fresh cut meats, prepared exactly like you want it. I realized today, as I was eating the sub, it's not just the combination of fresh meats, toppings and seasonings that make the sandwich taste awesome. It's the bread too! The bread is always fresh.
Be sure to stop in sometime...

Looking for an awesome sub? You need to visit American Hero Restaurant!
The subs are made with care and fresh ingredients. Meats and cheeses are sliced specifically for your sub, not cut ahead of time and stored. Bread is super fresh and tasty. It wouldn't surprise me if the bread is made daily in store.
I ordered the ham, salami, and cheeses sub today. It was a tough decision because everything sounded so good.
Subs are a good size! I got a "regular" sub and cities only way half of it. That's good because I can't wait to have the leftovers.
This is definitely a family-run business and they care for their customers. Today is the day before father's day - the staff was wishing fathers Happy Father's Day. That was a nice touch.
I can't wait to go back and try more of their delicious food!!

Decent sandwiches. Fresh cut meat and cheeses. The video games were almost all turned off. The ceiling was leaking and half the restaurant was closed off. The workers were nice enough though.

Incredibly patient & kind staff with my three chaotic children. The sandwiches were perfectly balanced regarding ingredients, condiments, and bread. Also, the staff helped with the video games and air hockey. It was a wonderful afternoon!
