I just love when people make an effort to veganize a cuisine and culture that isn’t typically accessible to vegans. Ben & Esther’s does just that, bringing New York Jewish deli culture to the west coast! The sandwiches, deli items, and baked goods are all excellent, the people are friendly, and it’s a memorable experience! Highly recommend

Amazing, flavorful sandwiches! What was left for sides options didn't look too appetizing, but if the potato latkes had been in stock I'd be curious to try. Unfortunately no bathroom

I love Ben & Ester’s! Their bagels are so good. I had the lox and the macaroni salad and OMG I still crave it. It is definitely pricey but worth it IMO. There aren’t any comparable places in SD that I’ve been to.
