Heh.
And here's the Yelp review from February...
Probably the worst meatball sandwich (special of the day) I have had in the tri-state area in my 32 years of living here, especially for $12. In all fairness I have not had the other sandwiches but with prices like that coupled with underwhelming food and slow service this will be a skip in the future. Joe Hell No!

anyone who pays twelve bucks for a meatball sandwich is retarded. you can get it for $5 at subway if you wait until february.
I don't know about Subway, but $12 seem way out of line. Eight bucks at Vinny Vincenz seems fair.
Yeah ... go to ... Subway?
funny story
Subway is so good! i was so excited when they opened one right by my apt! i just hope a Panera opens soon. do you know that panera has artisan bread? so does dunkin donuts!
i can only dream.
i do not like subway. but i must be the only one.
subway and starbucks should merge with facebook if the three parties haven't already thought of it already. then a chinese company can buy all three and control america by this obvious means of mind control.

Well I never had the Joe Dough $12 meatball, but their $10 brisket and Cubanos are kick ass. Got to give them credit for making lemonade from a sour review!
7/11, Subway, Dunkin... Now Panera? Really? Joe Dough - Hell yes!
I would rather pay $12 to eat a slab of cardboard than go to Subway. Hell it'd taste better, so why not?
In all seriousness, I've had the meatball sub at Joe Dough. It's expensive at $12, but it was actually one of the better meatball subs I've had in awhile. Might even go get one tonight now that I know they have it again.
Yeah, I saw this today, and (aside from the chuckle) I thought; "somebody should photograph that for Grieve.
the cuban sandwiches at joedough are divine and worth every penny.
yes, the brisket is good - and it's expensive.
the attitude that goes with it makes a potential customer a former customer.
is this the future - expensive and rude?
@ blue glass-
Expensive and rude... Everybody wants that "authentic New York City grit," right? And they're willing to pay for it.

....sadly....it almost makes sense...
Ever since Pete's-a-Place closed, I haven't been able to find a decent meatball sandwich anywhere in the First Avenue vicinity. Vinny Vincenz is horrible, as is Iggy's, Stromboli's and the pizza place on 9th Street's. Anybody?
Try Nino's @ Ave A and St. Marks
This makes me WANT to drive from N Idaho and get a sandwich from this place. Oh yeah, so would ANYONE worth their salt in the restaurant industry.
I don't have an issue paying $12 for a sandwich, so long as it's a good one. After all, my last Subway experience cost me about the same (10+ for the sandwich only) for a mediocre, foot-long, turkey on wheat. I'll spend the extra $1.50 for a quality sub in a local shop. But, I'm not easily deterred by one individuals bad experience. :-)
i ate the meatball and the brisket split half and half with a friend.. its not the worst, but I wouldn't go back there. Despite Joedough's better branding, I expect this place to go the way of the short-lived Question Mark Café, that was there 2-1 years ago and probably no one ever went to..
I knew this place had to be in New York. Nobody but a New Yorker can manage sardonic wit anymore.
