A friend and I decided to stop by after seeing a horde of people carrying the characteristic yellow Al’s bag in for lunch. Sandwiches are HUGE here, they aren’t playing around.

One of the best sandwich shops in Boston! They don’t mess around here, be sure to listen when you’re waiting for a hot sub because you are guaranteed to get flamed for being on your phone or not paying attention. Their hot pastrami is absolutely massive, and they don’t skimp on the meat. Bread here is considered top among sandwich shops in the area. This place is popping during lunchtime, but I think it’s always worth the wait.

Love this place. Great subs (they’re huge – the photo is a small). And good value with chips and a drink.

The teriyaki sauce on my steak teriyaki sub was way too salty and there was way too much of it to the point where my sub was pretty much inedible. There was a good amount of steak on the sub, which might have helped make it feel worth the slightly above average price tag had there not been an insane amount of salt. However, there were almost no veggies and very little cheese. The bread was probably the best part of the sub, but even that was fairly average. I will likely not be returning, and if I do I will not get anything with their teriyaki sauce again. The dining area was also messy and disorganized and I did not see anyone wipe the counters or tables at any point over the 20 minute period that I was there. The redeeming factor for this place was the extremely friendly staff and great customer service.

Al’s is known for the best lunch deal in Boston, with high quality sandwich ingredients, fresh baked bread, fast service, and a chips and a drink for a bargain. Now you no longer need to go into Boston to get it! The Kendall area had a sore lack of affordable quick lunch options, and almost nowhere to get a good sub, now Al’s has saved the day.

I happened to stumble upon this place while on a break from my Uber shift and what a surprise, this place is small with not much seating but man the subs are SO WORTH IT.
