Snarf\u2019s Sandwiches<\/a> is taking a bite out of Dallas-Fort Worth, with its first restaurant open near Love Field Airport as of Dec. 8, 2025, and more opening in North Texas neighborhoods in late 2025 and early 2026.<\/p>\n

The restaurant was created by Jimmy \u201cSnarf\u201d Seidel, who got his nickname from a former girlfriend who said he wolfed down his food. That was in the 1980s, and Seidel still answers to \u201cSnarf.\u201d His sandwich shop, which started in Boulder, Colo. in 1996, has grown to 50 locations.<\/p>\n

For more than a decade, Snarf\u2019s has sold bestsellers like the Italian sandwich and prime rib and provolone in Austin. <\/p>\n

Blanketing Dallas proper with Snarf\u2019s restaurants is a strategy it also used in Austin, said director of marketing Helen Wood. <\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s much more effective when we can come in with several locations in different areas of town,\u201d she said. <\/p>\n

\u201cPeople learn the name and start to experience it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Seidel was drawn to Dallas because his nephew attended Southern Methodist University. Seidel told The Dallas Morning News in mid-2025 he was excited by the \u201cvelocity\u201d in the Dallas dining scene.<\/p>\n

His restaurant group, now based in Denver, will likely open 10 to 15 Snarf\u2019s across the United States in 2026.<\/p>\n

Whereas some sectors of the food-and-beverage industry are slowing down as 2026 approaches, Wood said Snarf\u2019s is cautiously optimistic about next year.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur food costs, labor costs, building costs are going up,\u201d she said. \u201cBut we are very fortunate, in that we are in between fast food and high end. We are accessible for people who might not want to be spending high-end dollars right now but are still focusing on quality.\u201d<\/p>\n

The top sellers are the Italian sandwich, made of salami, pepperoni, capicola, mortadella and provolone. The meatball Parmesan and pastrami and swiss are other favorites, Wood said. <\/p>\n

A 7-inch sandwich costs about $12. <\/p>\n

Customers can also opt for the Not on the Menu Menu, a selection of 10 more sandwich options like a German hot dog, chicken cordon bleu sandwich, cheesesteak and more.<\/p>\n

The first Snarf\u2019s Sandwiches in Dallas-Fort Worth opened Dec. 8, 2025 on W. Mockingbird Lane.
