Reviews Summary
Diners consistently praise Rock n' Jenny's for their delicious and generously portioned Italian subs, with many highlighting the unique toasted bread and fresh ingredients. The warm, inviting atmosphere and friendly service add to the positive experience.

"The food is pretty good. I recommend the meatball sub, great tender meatballs, good sauce and lots of cheese. My only compliant is the thickness of the bread with this specific sandwich. It could be a little thinner so you can enjoy a real complete bite, but that is just me.
Inside is a small center with a wall of mirrors to make it look and feel bigger. Some outside seating as well. I recommend getting it togo and enjoying somewhere close so it is still hot."

"Been here tons of times, love this place. As of recently I’ve noticed the sandwich quality go down, using less ingredients, teenagers in the back not caring about the food being presentable at all. Get my pastrami sandwich and guess what! Virtually no pastrami.
Thanks for the lettuce and bread sandwich. You need to do better Jenny"

"I'm new to this place, and started with the 6" meatball sub. It's an excellent sandwich with two big, tender, and tasty meatballs with tomato sauce and mozzarella on a nicely toasted bun. The dominant flavor is oregano, which I think they could lighten up a bit."
