If you’ve been a regular at Subaba Subs in Fort Lauderdale, here’s news you need to know: the sub shop is no longer under kosher supervision. As of April 27, 2026, the ORB (Orthodox Rabbinical Board) has issued a public notice confirming that Subaba Subs has dropped its hashgacha and will be transitioning to a non-kosher restaurant.
What Happened
The ORB’s notice, dated today, makes clear that this was not a kashrus violation or any breakdown in standards. The certification was dropped as a business decision by the ownership. That matters for the community because it means there’s no kashrus scandal here, but the practical outcome is the same: the restaurant is no longer an option for kosher consumers, effective immediately.
What This Means for Kosher Consumers
Once a restaurant removes its hashgacha and begins transitioning to non-kosher operations, it is no longer acceptable to eat there regardless of what menu items may look like or what the staff may say. The moment the hashgacha ends, so does the reliability of the kitchen. There is no grace period. If you were planning a visit to Subaba Subs, that plan needs to change.
The Fort Lauderdale kosher dining scene has options, but spots serving kosher subs and sandwiches in Broward County are not exactly abundant, which makes this loss a real inconvenience for locals and visitors alike. Hopefully another option emerges to fill the gap.
Subaba Subs was located at 4806 SW 28th Terrace, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33314. It is no longer under kosher certification and is transitioning to a non-kosher operation. It had been certified by the ORB (Orthodox Rabbinical Board).
