“The overall experience was good. The place could use a little sprucing up, some new ceiling tiles. The food was really good! Very fresh and yummy. Friendly and kind staff. Would recommend and will go again. Their orange chicken is the best I've ever had.Vegetarian options: You can order any dish with or without meat.Dietary restrictions: They will easily accommodate as needed.“
“This Mexican restaurant is one of two that we frequent in Santa Cruz County (the other being Los Pinos). This restaurant is closer to fine dining than the other one.Their chips and salsa are great (we love the hot bean dip), and their food is very good. There are lots of consistently good dishes on the menu.Service is usually very good and the atmosphere is usually good as well.Highly recommended.“
“My #1 personal go-to spot in Santa Cruz for amazing flavor and hefty portions, the doner here is the best I've ever had! I haven't been able to enjoy Nick the Greek since I tried Arslans, the difference in quality is night and day.I highly recommend this place to anyone and everyone who has not yet made the trip here.10/10, would recommend.“
“The place is a small family owned restaurant. Food is delicious. This place is definitely our go-to spot when we are in Scotts Valley. We ordered. For starters, we ordered satay chicken with peanut sauce and egg rolls. As an entree, we ordered the Basil chicken, pra-ram chicken with mixed vegetables, peanut sauce, and spicey seafood . All were delicious. This place is worth checking it out. Prices are reasonable.Parking: Lots of parking this restaurant is in the shopping center.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes. Disable parking right in front. No stairs. Easy access.“
“I moved to Aptos 49 years ago, and Eric's Deli was a happy surprise. Close by, excellent salads and sandwiches, super soups, and genuinely friendly service. Low key seating and no obnoxious noise. No alcohol. It's still here, now with multiple locations, but the quality hasn't suffered from time. Congratulations to the real Eric!Vegetarian options: Feels natural to order.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free choices clearly identified. Food is not oversalted.Kid-friendliness: Lots of kids with grandparents!Wheelchair accessibility: Of course!“
“It's deeply pleasing to take a drive through Kings Village, in Scotts Valley, and be reassured that the very first Erik's Deli still serves as a landmark there since 1973. I was a young 13 when my folks would treat my twin brother and I to an outstanding experience in THIS VERY SPECIAL DELI in 1977. The family and I would divulge our saved appetites here often, throughout the following 2 decades, and never an iota of a let down. Adventurous sandwiches and soups/salads to satisfy delightfully. A special mention must be honored though;**An order of THE BEST clam chowder served up in a sourdough loaf bowl IS A PRIZE FOR MANY PATRONS** - a must have dish!!For some various reasons, my path led me elsewhere... away from Erik's warm comforts for too long of an absence (about 25 years, although I still resided amongst these beautiful mountains & valleys with their gulches and folds teeming with life).Until just last weekend, my young neighbor suggested eating lunch at Erik's Deli, since we were in Scotts Valley for a remedy of resolve.I am 59 now, and upon walking through the entrance doors up to the ordering counter, I was transmuted instantly to a youth of my teens again (as the atmosphere was pristinely preserved EXACTLY as I remembered). Excitedly, without referring to the menu, I recalled all my favorite memories of sandwiches. As the pot of clam chowder tempted my friend and I through the deli glass, a "Sea Dog" and "Marrakesh Express" sandwiches, respectively, were ordered. We both gave in to 'the temptation' without a pause, and added 2 large servings of Erik's Clam Chowder to warm our innards.??ABSOLUTELY AND IMPECCABLY DELICIOUS.ALL OF IT!!Great job and high regards to the staff. I flat out fell in love with this place AGAIN.Thank you Thank you Thank you!!! (and a heartfelt appreciation for my young neighbor's suggestion, which led us to this gem of refreshing proportions... for my own special tryst and fond reunion. FIVE STARS, BABY!!??See you again, very soon!! ???? ~ Happy Thanksgiving Day to my loved ones and all of you!!“
“After dropping off the 7 Winklesticks and two boxes of Bluehanker Gobblygoons to Uutaacuss Coombaba the Sea Urchin diver from Uganda I was whipped. I think he's going to use those things to scrape the barnacles off his trawler, and I told him that's not what they're designed for, but he just mumbled and made some popping noises like the Bantu tribesmen do. He paid me and I couldn't get out any faster. I made a beeline straight for Eric's DeliCafe they're the best on the coast.5 stars all day long. ☆☆☆☆☆“
