The [Fazoli's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/philly-cheesesteak-ravioli) Oven-Baked Subs have been announced as the latest offerings for patrons to try out on their next visit to a participating location that promises impressive flavor and texture. The sandwiches come in three varieties including [Meatball](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultimate-meatball-sub), Original Italian and [Club](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/firehouse-captains-club), which are each crafted with a range of high-quality ingredients and finished in the oven to increase flavor.
