  Okay, so I kid you not. This particular store will have our food delivered anywhere between 13-18 mins flat each time we order!
  My family and I actually have begun setting a stopwatch timer because we can't figure out how they are able to make the food, cook it, and deliver it that fast.
  Who woulda thunk we would be amused by how fast they deliver and taking bets of when they will arrive. The food is always correct and it is consistently good.

  Well all I can speak on are the so called subs.
  
  Before I go there the only reason I rated this place 1 star was the order lady was polite and seemed to be genuinely nice.
  
  My wife and I live in Port Charlotte full time and my wife looked this place up through "Yelp". I have to say again this is only about the subs and nothing else.
  
  Now my wife got a Taco sub and I got an Italian. I must say my wife will eat anything. The only reason I mention that point is from the pictures you can see she ate nearly half of the sub before her non-discriminatory taste buds had enough. I on the other hand, yes it may seem snobbish, it only took two and a half bites before I had sensory overload! OMGOODNESS "BAD". I have had some late night pizza's, half drunk in Germany, from the back of a chuck and puke wagon, ( if you don't know this term Google it )!!! Number one Germany isn't known for pizza. Beer and Sauerbraten or Sauerkraut yeah sure. So to say the cold slabs of round disks with no flavor at all was better is saying a lot!!
  
  Now to be very real. If your older than 50 have had any kind of heart issues this place may place you in cardiovascular pain. For you younger it means a heart attack! Why pray tell????
  
  The salt content could not have been higher if I had taken a bite off the Dead end of the "Dead Sea"! That sea you are unable to sink while swimming, due to the high salt content. Look it up!!!
  
  Now I know this place isn't in Rome.... No I wasn't expecting Rome quality pizza. Remember, I said these were called subs not pizza. But to even call these subs it would be better to call them "Round Up". ( ok I'll tell you this one. Round Up is a weed killer. Well really a defoliant. It kills anything that grows )
  
  Now, I'm trying to figure out how this place makes any money using 50lbs bags of salt on each sub?
  
  So, the only conclusion that rings of any logic has to be; "When we ordered, I asked for lettuce, tomatoes, and banana peppers on the sub"! Why? Because the sign said nothing about those items.
  
  Here is my logic!! The nice lady taking our order says back to me, "Well we put them on the side!" Hummm never heard of that I think to meself??? So I asked, " Could you place them on the sub? Figuring, I didn't want to handle those items. Waite for it.... here it comes. So, the only logical reason for 50lbs of salt would be because, I asked for "Them to put the lettuce, tomatoes and banana peppers on the sub for me".
  
  So, here it is! Some one was angry because they were asked to put the lettuce, tomatoes, and banana peppers. "ON THE SUB"
  
  Now if my logic holds fast, what else would be the reason someone would put that much salt on this sub? Hang with me here!!!
  
  If that's the reason do you really want to eat here?
  
  Now I know someone will say, " Really 50lbs of salt?"  Ok.... maybe not 50lbs perhaps it was only 5lbs!!!!
  
  I've included the pictures of both subs. Of which I will not "ARGUE" the point that these were never subs. Just small welllll done pizzas folded in half. Oh I read the plaque on the wall which showed an old photograph of how the "Unique" crust was discovered. Let's all be honest... the dude ran out of sub buns and folded a small pizza skin in half to stand in as a bun. Then called it "UNIQUE"
  
  SO FORGET ABOUT THE SUBS.... Being a strick snob of how and what constitutes a sub, "I fully admit to being a snob in this case!"
  
  So, if you want a highly salted folded small pizza shell passed of as a sub then I give thos place 38 stars********************************************************* no I didn't count the stars!

  We have been to this HH many many times. Very happy with their quick service. Our order is always correct and ready for pick up. Staff is usually friendly and attentive.

  Cheap ownership. Probably should close this location down if the owner has to charge customers for parmesan cheese packets when you order a pizza. Times must be tough on the owner. What a disgrace. Will not purchase from hungry Howie's again

  Use to come here all the time. Now they've done nothing but raise the prices on everything. Cajun Bread is now $4.99 instead of $3.99 & sauces went from 2 for $1 to .79 each. Use to go every week but I'll never buy from them again! Not worth the money at all. Out to take advantage of people.
