“Honestly... giving this place a 5 stat because it is actually good, it is so big, and less than $5. Enough said..... The area is a bit sketch, but you won't be there for too long so it is okay! Come with a friend as parking can be hard. It can get pretty busy but they are fairly quick. I have never heard of anyone arodering a sanwich from here and being dissapointed. Our group recently orderd 1 pork, 1 tofu, 1 chicken, and everyone was satisfied.“
“Absolutely incredible. This little sandwich shop deserves so much praise. The owner is super chill and nice. It’s very small but has cute outdoor seating. Very European, relax and enjoy kinda vibe. The sandwiches we had where the most amazing sandwiches I’ve ever tasted. Super affordable prices too, which is rare to find in the Bay Area. I will definitely be going back next time in in San Fran“
“A place on 24th St., the salvation to have a coffee, eat a good sandwich, have a beer and if you like everything Italian you will find it here! The guys are very friendly and the owner can't even speak of, I really liked it, I recommend it!“
“I tried the Waffle Fries with Mick Sauce and the Carzle Sando at Deli Board, and let me tell you, it was a taste sensation! The Carzle Sando is loaded with Romanian pastrami, brisket, provolone, cherry peppers, pickles, cole slaw, and Board sauce, all snugly nestled in a garlic French roll. The Romanian pastrami was especially savory and mouthwatering.Although it leans towards the pricier side, the quality and taste justify every penny spent. The waffle fries were crispy perfection, adding a fantastic crunch to the meal.And here's a sweet bonus - there's a cozy little park just across the store, perfect for enjoying your meal in a relaxed setting.“
“I've been hearing about how great the bánh mì's are here and this past weekend, I finally made time to try. We went on Sunday morning around 10am, and there was a short line. After ordering, it took maybe 10 minutes - not bad, since there were quite a few people waiting for their food. My partner and I ordered a beef bánh mì, and bánh mì xá xíu, both with a fried egg. Also got nước rau má and bánh giầy. ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. We got to the car, and devoured the sandwiches in 5 minutes. Every thing was fantastic. Felt like I was reliving my childhood snacks. Will definitely be back!“
“Love this bakery so much, you can never go wrong with their baked goods, don’t sleep on their pizza especially the pepperoni it’s so good! Along with the great food they serve they have an even better service, they’re very welcoming and kind.“
“One of the best wine bars in the city! Totally unpretentious, incredibly welcoming, and always a good time. The menu has a few changes regularly and there's ALWAYS a fantastic and varied wine selection. You can tell that every person who works here is passionate and loves what they do, one of the true gems of North Beach.Great spot for a romantic date in the evening, perfect place to chill with friends in the afternoon. Highly recommend the tastings - especially on Wednesdays! If you get a chance to take a class DO IT! You'll learn so much!“
“The owner may have changed but the sandwich was awesome and made just the way it was 30-20-20 years ago. Italian combo-get the large, enough for 2 meals or 2 people- on sourdough with the works! Prices have gone up but hey, everyone has raised their prices everywhere.“
“Now this is a bomb sandwich. They don't skimp on the ingredients and it's a monster. This is easily 2 meals for me. Go all-in for the pickled onions and crunch.Vegetarian options: There are at least 2 vegan sandwich options on their fixed menu, and you can also "build your own" and feature hummus and avocado with a mountain of other veggies.“
“I came across a reel on Instagram and today when we visited the Hall of Science I had to go to Southside Station. They have some of the best chicken sandwiches I've ever had. The chicken was crispy, big and tasty, the slaw was perfectly tangy and and the sauce hit the spot. Perfectly balanced flavors in a big delicious sandwich. In addition, we tried the garlic noodles and the curly fries whichwere really good. Portions are good. I recommend this hidden gem. I'm definitely going back for the sandwich and will try the other items on the menu.“
“It's a cool spot with great sandwiches. The best really.But seriously everyone in the shop is super cool and nice but the guy on the register. I think he might be worse than the red head chica they had doing it before.Been a regular since they opened as I live and work in neighborhood.But dealing with that guy is the worst.Tip- order online. Let the app tell you when it's done to minimize your interactions with the dude.“
“Can't find a better sandwich.Any other sandwich chain only scores 1 or 2 compared.The roast beef was tender, thinly sliced, the onion jam sauce so delectable, the bun was perfect. Been years since I've had a sandwich meal that surpassed the taste of Q's.It's an 11.“
“Take note: I actually went to the location in the mission which is an incredibly cool place to stop by. Lots of italian products, wine and very nice staff. Sandwhiches were excellent. Special shout out to staff at this location. I had embarassingly ordered the sandwhiches at this Sutter location. I was going to just reorder them but the staff there contacted the manager at the Sutter location and he said they'd forgive me this one time. So generous of them. I will definitely be back!“
“Excellent food, excellent customer service. The veggie panini was full of perfectly cooked, flavorful veggies like eggplant & zucchini. Pesto is delicious. My partner loved his meatball sandwich, and the owner brought him generous tastes of pulled pork and bacon.Can’t believe it took us so long to try this spot. We’ll be back soon!“
“A great little gem in a bustling historic location. Great to sit at a little table in the plaza and watch the people and pigeons! Friendly and prompt service. Drip coffee was fresh and hot. High-lite was the tasty croissant breakfast sandwich. Made fresh on the spot and not reheated like most cafes. Lots of toppings and options - next time I’ll try a veggie bagel sandwich!“
“Classic old school Italian Deli owned by the same family for many decades. Great friendly service. Delicious fresh custom made sandwiches. My favorites: the Italian beef. Also the mortadella with hot coppa on sourdough sliced w/red onions & giadineria Don't forget dessert. Order a cannoli.“
“My go to place for Banh mi and noodle soups. I order from here at least twice a week. They are always nice and friendly. Even if they are busy they still knowledge me. My favorite is the meatball sandwich add Cha Lua. The bread is always crispy. The noodles soup is filling and doesn’t make me sleepy like from other places.“
“Love this cozy streetside shop. Reminds me of NYC. Get a hefty and tasty breakfast sandwich on focaccia for a hefty price but well worth it. Blueberry muffins are bomb. Wish there were drinks besides coffee but there is a shop just down the street where you can get some Martinelli’s. Bada bing bada boom.“
“Remember the grade school taunt, "If you love something, why don't you marry it?" I totally want to marry this sandwich. In fact, I want to commit polygamy. These sandwiches are THAT amazing. The pork belly sandwich has these crispy nubs of deep fried pork skin, thoughtfully diced so that your teeth don't struggle, scattered on top of the filling of the most tender slices of pork belly imaginable. And the Le Dip? Don't get me started. The sirloin is perfectly cooked and shaved so thin that you get the mille feuille effect (Have you ever had mille feuille tonkatsu? Yeah, it's like that). The horseradish sauce is bracing, not overwhelming. And the sandwich fillings are nestled in this special Vietnamese baguette which is unlike a French baguette. It has a glassine crust that shatters the moment your teeth make contact and gives way to a pillowy interior. Eating this sandwich is the type of experience that makes you melancholy the closer you are to the end because you don't want the experience to come to an end.“
“The Sanfranpsycho tasted great but was overhyped in my opinion. I got so many recs for this sandwich and while it tasted great, it was nothing exceptional. The service was nice too and this is a grocery store so there's no seating. Would recommend!“
“Came here on a rainy day and was surprised to see it packed. Seems like a popular work from home spot, which also means quite hard getting a seat on a weekday especially during lunch. The french onion soup was flavored, but dare I say a little too much cheese that most of my scoops were just hardened globs of cheese. Cappuccino was delicious and so was the pastry! Would come in again but this time take it to go and eat outside near the park :)“
“I have only been to the SF location once which is shared with a local wine shop. I was a regular at the now-closed Santa Monica location. I have met both brothers (very friendly) who own the business and wouldn't be surprised to see more locations pop up in the San Francisco Bay Area.My go to order is the Mt Edna Salad and Chicken Tetrazzini sandwich (which tastes like your grandma's chicken pot pie) or OMG sandwich. Their hot sauce is fresh, made in house.Definitely recommend stopping by if you are in the mood for a hearty sandwich with fresh ingredients and well-toasted bread.“
“I picked up the Gotti sandwich today. The chef is definitely not shy with the food here. Sandwich was seasoned and super tasty I can't wait to come back and try another one. I finished half of it shared the other half of my friend and then ate his half wow great value.The staff is also fabulous which just rounds out the experience and makes me want to come back.“
“Nestled in SF, this charming sandwich shop offers a culinary experience like no other. With its fresh ingredients, premium meats, and warm customer service, it is a delight for the senses. The inviting aroma of freshly baked bread sets the stage for a mouth-watering adventure. Each sandwich is a masterpiece, carefully crafted with attention to detail and bursting with flavor. From the warm welcome to the last satisfying bite, this shop is a true gem for sandwich enthusiasts seeking a taste of perfection. And to top it off, we got t-shirts to remember this exceptional experience.I highly recommend you visit and take a bite!“
“places like this are what makes San Francisco so great. totally unassuming from the street, but very clean and tons of seating options, both inside and out. Service was genuine and welcoming. My breakfast was 10/10 and wildly affordable. 100% compostable take out boxes/ramekins.Definitely will be backVegetarian options: lots of “build your own” options with veggies clearly listed.“
“I've been going to the Dublin and Livermore Sourdough sandwich shop since they opened. The food is always great, as is the service. Since I live in Livermore, I go to this place almost daily. The owners are so nice and always greet customers when they come in. I had them cater a huge pickleball event for our Tri-Valley Pickleball Club and they did an outstanding job. I highly recommend them as the premier sandwich shop in Livermore and the Tri-Valley.“
“Today I ordered the meatloaf sandwich it was absolutely delicious, the thousand Island dressing on the sandwich makes it so incredible! I don't believe I ever had such a delicious meatloaf sandwich like this. Great job will definitely be back, Sincerely GladysVegetarian options: Just take a look at the menu for yourselves and you'll see got to go and check it out, simply the BestDietary restrictions: Many food selections, just ask and they will take care of you with great customer service.“
“Worth trying but not necessarily returning. The sandwiches were good but not great, fresh ingredients and well prepared but nothing nocks your socks off in terms of flavor. Ihad the Dagwood on Dutch Crunch and also tried the pastrami on a soft roll and both were just OK. Sep 2015.“
“A very good Hoagie sandwich, atmosphere is alright. This is a hole in the wall fast food place. I'm just here for the food, not the ambiance. I rook my sandwich home and its one of the best that I have tasted. It was hot, cheesy and ooozzzing with flavors. A must try.Parking: No issues with parkingWheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible“
“This is a good lunch spot for FiDi. Sandwiches are $12.50-$14. Salads are $10-$11. Prices on their website are outdated. My sandwich , the LLB special $12.50 was roast beef, turkey, ham, swiss, provolone on dutch crunch, was alright. The New England Clam Chowder $8.50 was chunky and not filled all the way up. That tasted OK as well. Friendly service for a counter style restaurant. Kitchen was fast taking account they were busy. I was pretty full afterwards.“
“Simply the bomb, no matter what you get on the menu. Neighborhood staple. Locals only type joint. Pictured is the biscuit sando with chicken apple sausage. The biscuit goes crazy… with some syrup? Game over The banana bread is so lite and served warm!!! The chocolate cookies also always hit. Personally a fan of how they actually cook the onions all the way through so that they’re sweet with your potatoes!! It’s all in the details. 10/10 service always. Very rare quality joint. I’ll probably cry the day they close.“
“I've now been to Deli Lama about four times and have had a great experience every time. It's in a random part of town but usually there's parking nearby even though some of the spots might not look legit because of construction but regardless, the food is tops and it's a great value too. I've never made it early enough to get breakfast options (and I love breakfast burritos, so I wanna do that some time) but their sandwiches are really solid. I got the TPA most recently on Dutch crunch and it's filling and a great deal! Definitely wanna try more different options but will just have to get up earlier!“
“First of all, Ann at the counter is just a lovely person to be greeted by. It was a pleasure and she was warm and welcoming from start to finish.Okay, I ordered The Pastrami to go. My thoughts, being a first timer, were to go with a classic. Something that shouldnt be made wrong in any sandwich shop. They didnt disappoint.It was everything I expected in a pastrami with one caveat: I had it on Dutch Crunch bread.(first time having it on that kind of bread)They had a bunch of other options, not just pastrami. If youre in the mood for a good sandwich in The East Bay, head to Oakland and hit up Lunch Box.“
“Good sandwiches ! Mom n Pop place, a little more homestyle than the supermarket or chain delis. Real avocado not a spread and they proudly state they roast their turkey for the sandwiches daily. Egg salad is good too. And they have Bruce Cost ginger ale ! Yummm. Very small place with no dining tables. To go only .Vegetarian options: Sandwiches, so you can order many vegetarian sandwich options. Vegan may be very limited.“
“Only been here once, but the reviews are spot on. This place rocks! Great food. Excellent vibe. Nourishing & delicious food that is well prepared. I had tortilla soup and fries. Soup was outstanding and the fries were perfect. Can’t wait to come back!“
“Fresh, tasty sandwiches and friendly service. What more could you ask for?This place is one of my staples in the neighborhood. Whether you live nearby or are in town visiting, Bite has something for everyone and never disappoints.The lovely ladies that work here are always welcoming and quick with orders.If you find yourself desperately searching for a late bite after a night out, go here. They’ve saved me at 1am quite a few times.Get the Gotti on a Dutch Crunch. You’re welcome.“
“Had the grilled pork banh mi:the pork was grilled very well, with a great fat to muscle ratio.The vegetables were crunchy, fresh and had a great quick pickleThe bread had a crispy outer shell and soft inside. You get all the crunch and none of the torn roof-of-mouth actionFor $10, this was a steal. Definitely trying their bun cha next time“
“Don’t overlook this little sandwich shop. I read reviews and decided it sounded good. It was charming. Loved the little place. The sandwich was amazing and huge. I had a turkey sandwich with everything on it and toasted. I wish I could share the flavor - but just YUM! While we were there a guy came in and said he had come to San Francisco on business and had traveled across town to come get a sandwich. He said he used to come to the shop on his way home from high school many years ago. It was so good he just had to come back and get a sandwich.“
“We dropped into Gambino’s for lunch on Friday because we were going to the Exploratorium. We just needed to eat before our adventure and we found this place on the corner and decided to try it. The food is absolutely top notch for a little sandwich place. Like real Italian sandwiches and pasta. I ordered the Eggplant parm and Ooo Boy! Totally Heaven. The others had a Reuben, cheesesteak, and The Gentleman's sandwich which they all raved about. We are a bunch of tough critics when it comes to food and it’s my pleasure to say to anyone considering a lunch in San Francisco…Just go to Gambino’s, you won’t be disappointed.“
“Hole in the wall sandwich spot but there’s sidewalk seating if you want to hang out and eat. Great sandwiches, great people. Also other options like breakfast bagels with lox. Fave sandwiches are the Jordan and the Ryan special sandwiches. Love this spot in the neighborhood!“
“I moved from SoCal to San Francisco in June of 2023. I've seen a number of sandwich shops and I pass by Marina Submarine everyday on my way to work. Today I was craving a sandwich and even saw a few posts about sandwiches on social media today, so I decided to stop in Marina Submarine. I've never tried a tuna melt, but it was raining today and it was calling my name. Not only was this tuna melt AMAZING, but it was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had! It's really awesome to try something for the first time and be blown out of the water! The jalapeño on this sandwich gave it a nice subtle heat and added layer of flavor. The sourdough bread was perfectly toasted. First time here and it didn't disappoint! I'm very impressed and I'll be back.“
“We came here for breakfast and had a fantastic meal. We ordered the buttermilk pancakes, New York everything bagel platter, potato pancakes, banana rum soufflé pancakes, and 2 sunny side up eggs with home fries and chorizo. We really enjoyed the banana rum soufflé pancakes, and the buttermilk pancakes are the best pancakes we’ve ever had, as they’re so thick, light, and fluffy. We will definitely come back again when we’re back in Berkeley!“
“Been coming here for years for good reason. The pork and shrimp springs rolls with peanut sauce are sublime. Paired with the also exquisite pineapple flavored potato chips…. You have a meal fit for a king…. Or whatever gender less/ nonbinary system of government you happen to identify with. Cheers!“
“My friend Rebecca took me here when I first moved to the Mission. I revisited today, and the sandwiches filled my east coast deli dreams. The owner of this local place has been behind the counter more than 20 years, and is a talker with a heart of gold. Juan made my sandwiches while smack talking Philly sports teams, made one of the local characters a meal on the house like it was a usual thing, reminded another guy to get the long and short sandwich because his wife gets mad when he comes home without food for her (as a wife that does not know his wife, I can confirm this), and talked to another lady about bologna sandwiches. She wasn't sure about the sandwich so then he gave her a generous taste with bread and mayo and then she decided she wanted a frozen pizza but didn't know where to get one and he gave her directions! To walk and take the bus! I can barely handle my own thoughts let alone other people for more than a few hours so this man truly is a magical unicorn and must be honored. I loved hearing him tell stories about riding his lowrider down Mission. And he makes his own bread. The suns back, so grab a sammy from him and hit the park. Tell him the Indian lady from Philly in overalls sent you“
“Embarcadero Center Gem: Unwrapping the Delicious Secret of 5th Avenue Deli & Market I was looking for something new to try when I got hungry, so I asked my colleague for a recommendation. She suggested 5th Avenue Deli & Market, a small, hidden gem tucked away in the Embarcadero Center near the corner of Clay and Drumm streets. They offer a large selection of sandwiches, non-alcoholic drinks, and chips to accompany their creations. Since I'm not a picky eater, I asked the friendly cashier what their most popular sandwich was. Without hesitation, he declared, "SanFranPsycho!" This sandwich features honey turkey, bacon, Gouda cheese, garlic butter, pesto, and Cajun mayo, all piled high on your choice of bread. I went with sourdough, gutted out and toasted with everything. While 5th Avenue has no indoor seating available, there are benches outside in the Embarcadero Center. I took it back to the office, and with the first bite, I was in love! The sandwich was perfect - the bread was fresh and perfectly toasted, the flavors exploded in my mouth, and it was incredibly filling. I'm officially a fan! If you work nearby and have a sandwich craving, check out 5th Avenue Deli & Market. This is one sandwich experience you won't regret!“
“Been going to Cafe 550 for a bit and as a lover of sandwiches I REALLY love this spot. The proprietor is super friendly and takes pride in his craftsmanship. I've only got the Californian since it was the first sandwich I got and loved it so much I just keep ordering it. Great value here too for a nice big and tasty sandwich! For reference other sandwich spots I like are DeliBoard, Rhea's, Turner's Kitchen and Submarine Center so if you enjoy any of those spots you'll love Cafe 550 too!“
“Dependably awesome! Every time! Food is super fresh, family-run counter, everyone's really thoughtful even when they're backed up. I eat here at least twice a week now. The chicken salad is super clean. Try their house made herb dressing. :)“
“I had never a fans of sandwich, for me all of them tasted the same, till finally I bought sandwich from Crave Subs that it changed my mind lol. It tasted delicious, they also serve halal meat, so it's a plus point for me. The price is also pretty reasonable and the portion is huge.The thing that I don't like is the place, they only have small room and some tables, so it's difficult to find a place to eat especially if it's crowded.“
“We came here on a Saturday and this place was bustling. We honestly probably would have missed it if we didn't overhear someone walking near us across the street asking if they still had strawberry cheesecake. They had such a selection of items but because the products are inside the building on display while the clerks are outside on the sidewalk, it is a bit hard to see how their items look like and therefore a little bit difficult to choose from. The strawberry shortcake was delicious, even though it was super sweet. It was rich but had great flavors.“
“This place is absolutely fantastic! I'm a bagel enthusiast and have tried many around town, but this spot stands out among the rest. We sampled a variety of their offerings, including the Tuna Melt with Cheddar, Chicken Wrap with Tahini Sauce, Turkey Ham, Swiss on Croissant, and Grilled Chicken Breast with Mozzarella—each one was a flawless addition to our day.We grabbed two for a quick bite on our day trip, and it turned out to be a fantastic choice because all four of them were incredibly delicious. The taste, saltiness, and freshness, along with the aromatic blend of the meats and veggies, were spot on. Everything about the experience was just right.We loved it so much that we came back for another visit, and I think my partner might have already snuck in for more. The combination of flavors, quality, and overall experience has made this our go-to spot. We're both smitten with this place and can't wait to indulge in more of their delightful creations!“
