Best sandwiches in Los Altos, but sure wish it was open longer (and on Sundays).

Alotta's is a little out of the way sandwich shop that focuses on freshly prepped each day food and a friendly smile and conversation. The presence of this sandwich shop is strong enough that I was recommended this place while flying into San Jose airport. I drove the 25 mins into the quiet streets of Palo Alto to taste the hype. The hype is real. Along with great food there is a Santa Margherita to Porto Fino mural on the wall (attached for your viewing pleasure). I recommend the meatball sandwich and a bag of spiced nacho cheese Joe chips.

Stopped by here for lunch with some colleagues on our lunch break. The bread on the sandwich was excellent and the meat was very tender. will definitely be coming back to try the other sandwiches at Alotta's! Great local spot.

Used to go to Alotta's frequently over the years. Their mortadella sandwich was delicious and my regular. Picked up a hot corned beef sandwich today for the first time in a couple of years and it was terrible. There were literally 2 pieces of thin corned beef and not even 1 whole piece of provolone! The meat tasted old and dry. My husbands pastrami was the same, barely any meat or cheese and tasted old. The only reason for 1 star is for the bread. After enjoying for years, I won't be going back.

Sandwiches are good. The bread makes them. They are a bit pricey thou! Atmosphere nothing special, service is good but the owner not that friendly that takes your money.

Tuna sandwich w/ avocado on their house made bread was 10/10, forget about the Joe & the Juice Tunacado
3/5 to average my experience with my friend's experience. My meatball sub was incredible. Had around 4ish meatballs iirc. Definitely enough meat. My friend went more recently (on a weekday, whereas I've only been on weekends - might be a different person making sandwich), and he literally got one meatball. His sub was a pathetic imitation of what I got. We had completely opposite experiences. If you win the die roll, you'll have an amazing meal. Or lose and you'll regret going. It sounds like management needs to have a word with one of their employees.

Came here for lunch and it was a beautiful find! The moment you walk in you see fresh made meats and the Auroma filled the air. Great menu for the family.

Thanksgiving meals are the very best! Every year I get their Turkey breast, mashed potatoes, stuffing, and gravy in lbs and pints. You have until the 20th to place your order and pick up is on the 23rd between 2-3 pm. You'll love the feasting for days!!
