Large portions with good service and taste. Lines can get long at lunchtime and sometimes closes early due to selling out early, so come early or risk finding closed doors.

Pretty standard bay area italian-ish sandwich shop. Came here for a meal while visiting the hospital nearby, as I generally love this kind of place. Food was great, but wish I looked to elsewhere.
I got a corned beef with everything on dutch crunch, which was awesome. They put a lot of work into every ingredient, and the sandwich was massive. It ended up being both my lunch and dinner, and it is the sort of sub I'd rather have for dinner, but the place is geared for lunch only. It was super satisfying but an especially greasy rendition of a bay area sub.
The food was really the only positive though. This place clearly gets a steady business from long time patrons, and they have no interest beyond that. I went to check the menu before visiting, which they don't have anywhere but the board behind them. Their "online ordering" is a fax form without options spelled out. The interior is...bare bones, nothing at all inviting. Easy points to laugh off, but it seems like the sort of place that's going to go out of business and blame everything but their absolute lack of investment in the place over like 30 years.
The person who made my sandwich was nice enough, but other staff were cracking jokes about me and calling me slurs in Spanish. I wouldn't come back, which is probably want they want anyway.
EDIT: Went back once more for a second chance and I’m glad i did. Got a different sub (roast beef) and it was made well. Tried again and got the chicken and it was great. My first visit was definitely a mistake but the following visits more than made up for it.
The person making my order misheard me several times. The sub I opened up when I got home was not even close to what I wanted. The bread was completely soaked through and it had items I didn’t ask for. I couldn’t imagine anyone wanting this much liquid on a sub. I’d like to say they gave me the wrong order but I don’t think that’s the case. Please make sure there is no communication errors before leaving the store. $20 down the drain.

I THINK IT NO LONGER HAS THE SAME FLAVOR AS BEFORE.
Soooo, I have heard the hype of the legendary little lucca in SSF. I have been meaning to try it for a very long time yet never did because there’s always a long line outside the building. Was excited to find this place. 1. Not so crowded, have no seating area (maybe outdoor, limited space). Service is very slow because they took order and made it. Guess they think having a line is one of their appeal or something. 2. Price: very pricey for a sandwich. Why, you may ask? i have no clue. Maybe because of the size. 3. Sandwich size: ginormous. Those things are huge and heavy too. I was having hard time carrying 2 of those without plastic bags. 4. Flavor: meh. It was good and juicy, but the meat is very less for it’s size. The ratio between meat and bread is not balanced. That’s the thing disappointed me the most. For around $20 per sandwich, those things better be loaded with meat… yet what I got is just loaded with sauce and lettuces. Lol. Disappointing.

The foreman at San Francisco airport bought us a
sandwich for lunch.....AMAZING ...sandwich was huge and the best sandwich I've had in years
We ordered the Mortadella and roast beef sandwiches. Both were good, but the bread was a bit too thick and hard. There was a long line, but it moved fairly quickly. If you’re with a group, it’s better to split up and order individually, or else you’ll have to wait until one person finishes preparing all the sandwiches. Also, keep in mind that hot sauce is added by default. It's not overly spicy, but if you prefer no heat, don’t forget to ask them to skip it.
The sandwiches here are freaking delicious and the service is top tier. I highly recommend giving them a try if you're in the area. The food is that amazing.

Absolutely phenomenal sandwich! And huge! Managed to eat it all somehow. Had their hot pastrami with Swiss on sourdough, delicious! Staff was friendly and endearingly sassy

Love these sandwiches. Every time in the Bay Area we stop for one
Parking: Very busy location. Huge parking lot but hard to find a spot
My cousin recommended we visit here on our way to San Fran and I'm so glad we did. The staff was very attentive and made everything you order with care. I love the personal touches they put into the making of every sandwich. The prices I thought were very reasonable for the amount of meat and toppings in each sandwich, it's like paying Subway Sandwich prices but getting all the premium ingredients. They have like 50 different sandwiches and so many different breads to create a vast variety of options. We ordered 6 different sandwiches not realizing how big they turned out to be. I eat a lot and I could not finish one whole thing. These are definitely made to be shared and should be eaten as soon as possible before the sauces make them soggy. I forgot to take pictures of the actual sandwiches before we ate them. There's usually a long line and this is because they take such good care of every customer that comes in and makes everything fresh. I highly recommend this place.
