Saw Gianna’s 2 star review below because “the vibe was off”, I felt the need to give a 5 star to offset her craziness. Gianna sounds like a tweeker, I wouldn’t trust her opinion.

Anyway, I’ve been coming to globe for years. Quality food at a fair price. It’s a small business and they create a homey feel here.
Can’t go wrong with the brat and German potato salad and don’t forget to finish it off with an underberg.

Southern California's premier schnitzel sandwich.
Globally recognized schnitzel expert with four decades of experience. This establishment offers the finest schnitzel in Orange County. However, a wider variety of options, such as Jägerschnitzel, Kochkässchnitzel, or Schnitzel with hollandaise and asparagus, would be a welcome addition.

Please continue your excellent work.

Great place since many years. Owner focuses more on Sandwiches as the old German customers are getting fewer :(
However, they still have a great focused selection of great German gems that warm my heart, and sausages, meats and cheese are great quality, like “back home”.
And the German beer selection is really nice.

THANK YOU!🙏

The food is both delicious and unique. Not just a sandwich shop. Every time we go it is a terrific experience. Everyone behind the counter is welcoming and helpful. Highly recommend.

These guys are beautiful souls and their goulash was wonderful. Worth driving up there from San Juan Capistrano and I’ll be back gentlemen!

Thank you and Happy New Year!

I ordered the goulash for New Year's Eve dinner with my German mom. We loved it! Just like my Oma used to make. It was A LOT of food for $20 a meal. Really great!

There is not another food establishment in Orange County like Globe Deli . It combines classic Old World food blends , translates it to a modern age , and also has the classic Orange County vibe and personality with the owners . Simply the best restaurant in Orange

A hole in the wall place in Costa Mesa. Under previous ownership, food was great. Sean the new owner has done a great job of continuing same quality experience and food. We do not live local, so when we have the time, we make a special trip for lunch on Saturdays. Our favorites are the beef dip and the turkey Reuben. The beers on tap are always good. Always a good meal and friendly people.

Parking: It's a strip mall, lots of parking

Walked right into that one didn't I. The vibe is off in that place if you don't believe me go look for yourself. Sandwich was good I can't knock them for the food.

Southern California and OC”s Best German deli & shoppe. German traditional beers on tap as well as bottle. Fabulous shop for Beers, treats such as chocolate, gummy bears cookies, etc. etc. I have enjoyed their Buckhurst or Nuremberg on
Baguette with homemade potato salad. A current fave is fine liverwurst with Swiss cheese to go (add fig jam) for my gluten free menu. (I heard it’s called “Jenny’s Special). . Shoppe: Going back to my Bavarian roots. Under new management, which is still in the same family, excellent quality menu, friendly staff…No rushing , come relax and enjoy a pint. ( pre-order if you are in a rush..) #germandeli ##germangrocer #globaldeli #germanshop #germanmenu

Been going here for over 10 years and the food is great but went yesterday afternoon with my younger sister and was met with poor service and what seemed like a racist confrontation with the new owner. First, no greeting when we walked in just an employee looking surprised to see us. Spent about $50 on sandwiches and brats and when going to pay, I had a $3 gift card balance which I had received from their employee Meagan on a previous visit where they forgot about our food. So I just wanted to use the remaining $3 balance and I paid the rest with my credit card. So then the owner examines the gift card and starts asking me where I got the gift card from, and when I explained where I got it, the owner mumbled some random comment and quickly took the card to the back and then the employee started questioning my story as if I was lying as to where I got a $3 gift card remaining balance, which by the way was the third time I had been there since the new owner, and my last. He kept claiming I bought their gift card from an auction. The employee seemed to back off as I had to raise my voice and repeat myself again as to the gift card drama. My sister was extremely uncomfortable as soon as we walked in and felt like it was racism, saying we were being targeted with an accusatory tone. This used to be family owned but new owner seems like a financially stressed accountant suspicious for the wrong reasons. And obviously they have no grasp of technology where they could literally look up the record of all gift cards and not accuse customers. Will go back when ownership changes again
