"What Does the Dietitian Order?" @ Jason's Deli

Reviewed February 13, 2011 by a local RD

3 out of 4 Forks

The staff at Jason's Deli is very friendly and willing to answer any questions, or modify any dish to meet the needs of a customer.  I enjoy the option of ordering a half sandwich and the salad bar. I usually order a half Big Joe or California Club sandwich with a side salad (the salad bar) and that comes at a reasonable price of $7.99. There is also an option to get a half sandwich and soup or half sandwich and fruit for $6.99. The salad bar is unlimited and provides a variety of lettuce options (iceberg, romaine, and spinach), many different vegetables, peas, sunflower seeds, hummus, yogurt, and light/low sodium salad dressings.




The prices at Jason’s Deli are very competitive with restaurants of similar nature. Each sandwich comes with at least one vegetable such as sprouts, lettuce, avocados, tomatoes, or onions. Sandwiches also come with the option to use whole wheat bread instead of a croissant or white bread. Jason's Deli has a “light” menu with calories, total fat, and total saturated fat included on the menu underneath each menu item. The majority of the sandwiches/wraps come with regular or baked chips and a pickle; however, the menu includes specific sandwiches that have the option of choosing fresh fruit as the side item (which comes at no extra charge). You can order a sandwich (that does not specifically come with the option of fresh fruit as a side) and the fruit would be an extra $1.49.




Menu and nutrition information is available online. Overall, the restaurant is a very pleasant place to dine.

Jason's Deli has multiple locations in Knoxville and offers both take out and dine in options. This restaurant received 3 out of 4 forks because there is an additional charge to substitute for some side dishes (one fork was dropped because appetizers are not available).
