Sub Station II Food Review

Randleman Road is not a normal place. It's most definitely an oddity of misplaced businesses. The Burger King is a Chinese Restaurant, The KFC is now directly next to a KFC, and Sub Station II occupies an old Hardees. I had never been to a substation till last Saturday when I decided to stop in after driving by there and noticing they have a drive-thru. For me it ain't worth going if you've got to go in.... That, and I had to be home in like 30 minutes with food before Shannon starts her job.
I wouldn't even write about this place, except for the food was so distinct, so differently good, I think I found an excellent replacement for my long removed Miami Subs.
While I'd love to say this place is cheap, it isn't. Nor is it all that expensive. It's average. The price doesn't reflect the ease with which you can call in your order and pick it up on the way home. Nor does it really express how really good these sandwiches are.
For about $10.00 you can get a cheesesteak and fries, which will knock you off your leather reclining 6 way powered seats and into the trunk. Be sure to ask for it "All the way" to get your daily does of healthy vegetables.
To get to the heart of the sandwich, it's not a Philly, and not completely a NY Cheese-steak. It's something in between a Miami Style and a New York Style which would geographically place it somewhere in South Carolina. That's oddly where this business got it's start. It's a combination of vinegar, mayonnaise meat, cheese, and veggies that give you a uniquely tart steak and cheese. It's literally distinct but recognizable. The best part is it's authentic, addictive, and one of the few places in Greensboro you can get a Great cheesesteak.
