Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop, known for its award-winning, hand-crafted cheesesteaks, turkey subs and more, announced the opening of its new Phoenix location at 3890 W Happy Valley Road, Suite 160. Capriotti’s introduces local communities across the U.S. to the brand’s 49-year-old tradition of slow-roasting whole, all-natural turkeys in-house, and other one-of-a-kind sandwiches made using the freshest high-quality ingredients.
Founded in 1976, Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop is an award-winning fast-casual restaurant brand known for crafting extraordinary sandwiches. With more than 150 locations across the U.S., the brand is home to fan-favorite subs like The Bobbie—voted “Greatest Sandwich in America”—and unique offerings like the Capastrami, Cole Turkey, and premium American Wagyu Cheesesteaks. Capriotti’s continues to grow with a goal of reaching 500 locations by 2032 and has been ranked on Fast Casual’s Top 100 Movers & Shakers list four years running.
The new location is owned and operated by local husband-and-wife team Anthony and Julia Austin. Originally from Las Vegas, Anthony served in the Air Force and was stationed at Luke Air Force Base in Glendale for four years before making the area his home for the past two decades. Julia, a dietitian at a local hospital, values fresh, high-quality ingredients in both her profession and daily life, making Capriotti’s commitment to quality a natural fit for the couple.
Anthony grew up visiting Capriotti’s in Las Vegas and became a lifelong fan, often stopping by the local shop with his family. When he and Julia had the chance to bring the brand to their own community, it felt like a seamless extension of their connection to Capriotti’s.
“Capriotti’s has been part of our lives for so many years that opening our own location just felt right,” said Anthony. “We’re excited to share the sandwiches we’ve loved for so long and bring that same experience to families here in Phoenix.”
Capriotti’s in Phoenix makes it easy for guests to enjoy their favorites with convenient order-ahead, online ordering, and third-party delivery options. The shop also offers catering for events of all sizes – from corporate meetings to birthday parties – with selections like cold sub trays, box lunches, and a hot homemade meatball bar.
