The steak sandwich is the best I've ever had. I drive 1 hour from LA just to come get it! It's the only steak sandwich I can order it medium, and it is still super tender. I've had it over 10 times before. On this occasion, while I was eating the first half, the meat was too soft, but I thought maybe just bad cut. I just ate the bread part and spit out the meat. When I looked at the second half, that's when I saw that the steak was almost rare. I went back and tried to explain the situation, but the guy in the front said I ate half already. Told me that if I wanted another one, I would have to pay for it!
To the owner of this place. I genuinely think you have the best steak sandwich, but this type of customer service is horrible. It's not about the money as I'm happy to pay for it but how you make me feel. I know you guys are too popular or busy to care, but it's the little things you can do to make things right and keep a customer happy. I don't want free food, I just want what I paid for done right.
I was really looking forward to trying this steak sandwich shop after my friend’s enthusiastic recommendation, but unfortunately, my experience was disappointing. I specifically ordered my steak medium rare, but it arrived well done—overcooked and lacking the juiciness I was hoping for. This really put a damper on my meal, as the quality of the steak is what makes or breaks a steak sandwich for me.
Maybe it was just an off day, but I hope the shop pays closer attention to how customers want their steak cooked in the future.
Overall, I appreciate the recommendation, but I can’t say I’d rush back unless I knew they’d get the steak right next time
Went to Mario’s butcher and deli on Sunday 6-29-25
I ordered the pastrami sandwich, and french fries. The prices were reasonable comparison to other sandwich shops
I found the pastrami sandwich to be fair, but nothing special. The french fries were just average, nothing special,
I didn’t like the fact that they do not have fountain drinks and outdoor seating only
Overall, I probably would not go there again, Nothing special
I’ve been a few times for lunch and everything has surpassed my expectations! This time we got the breakfast burritos. Breakfast burritos are bomb!! The chipotle sauce that comes with it really sends it to the next level! They make their chorizo in house and you can definitely tell. Delish!
Marios is usually so good, but the service today was straight up horrible. They messed up my sandwich order by putting Mayo on instead of Mustard. When I told them that the order was wrong, the guy at the cash register simply said theres nothing they can do about it?! Sure the line is long, but customer service is customer service. Good thing im not allegric to Mayo- $12 down the drain becuase they did not want to do their job 👎
I got the butcher burger and fries and I honestly think there not a better combo 12.3/10, great environment, service, menu options, meat options, and the meat was perfectly seasoned and cooked on my momma.
Great sandwiches!
Great food!
Over hyped and burger wasn’t even warm. Staff was kind.
Uncle Meat....Delicious!

Busy but always worth the wait when there is one.
Best Steak Sandwich ever!!!
Torn because I love this place and their quality and service is usually on point however their online hours of operation are inconsistent from platform. The platform ended up driving almost an hour and a half only to miss the cut off by five minutes when it said nowhere online that there is a kitchen cut off time.
Ownership really needs to take this into consideration and fix all of the misleading times online
The best sandwich I have had! My wife ordered thed Chicken Cutlet sandwich and I ordered the Reuben. Both were incredible!
