Ordered some sandwiches to take to the beach this weekend and they were awesome. We got the hot poppa (has hot cheetos inside) and the chicken ranch crunch (has doritos inside) and they really hit the spot! They both came with a pickle and some macaroni salad too.

Great sandwiches. Whatever you want and will made.
Order to go. Very little space. Plan on 40 minutes so order ahead. Three people work all day making sandwiches as fast as there can. It’s just that busy.

I’ve been coming for years, it recently
Got real skimpy on their sandwiches in terms of how much meat , I guess expecting customers not to notice. But I definitely notice paying 15 bucks for little meat and lots of lettuce. Pretty discounting .i used to love the sandwiches, really sad. Hopefully owner sees this, cuz I guarantee things will slow down in the deli. Thin layer of meat in an Italian. Make it make sense . This has happened 4 times in a row. I’m done eating there. Not worth the buck.
A top sandwich spot in San Diego and I agree! The sandwiches are hefty, not dry, and attractive on the price. The quality of their meat is very good. Highly recommend.

Honestly kinda let down. We were excited to try this place but both our sandwiches came out wrong. One was missing the “Fat Boy’s Way” (even though we selected it), and the other didn’t have oil or vinegar. They also threw chips inside the sandwich, which we didn’t ask for (but know could be 🔥)— and it was weird because they were only on like a quarter of it, and tasted old, like off-brand Cool Ranch.
For almost $20 a sandwich, you’d expect way better. Probably wouldn’t go back. Plenty of better spots out there.

When I opened my sandwich the meat smelled rotten. It was not made with the requested toppings or condiments. All around horrible experience. This was my first time attempting to eat here.

I worked in the deli industry in New York (Long Island specifically) for 10 years+ so I take my sandwiches very seriously. I am also very critical whenever someone else makes prepares my sandwiches for me. Having said that, I have yet to be disappointed with Fatboys...Boards head products, generous portions, comes with sides and reasonably priced. Best Deli in North Park and one of the best sandwiches in San Diego, highly recommend!

Listen…I love this place. I’ve been coming here for years and nothing beats their sandwiches. However I’m just not sure I can come back after this. I ordered a deluxe Italian on 4/5 at around 1:20pm. I’m eating the sandwich when I suddenly bite down on something HARD. I THEN PROCEED TO PULL A BREAD CLIP OUT OF MY MOUTH! I just can’t believe how oblivious you have to be to do something like this. I get it’s a busy store and you have a lot going on, but this is a huge hazard. I could’ve choked on it. Hopefully this is a wake up call to the store to be a bit more careful in the future when making your sandwiches!!
Disappointed, they got both my sandwiches wrong, the meat smelled weird & they no longer carry the eggcentric sandwich i even went there for! The staff was very polite though!

Wanted to get sandwiches here after a soccer game they did not want us to order I see they have a whole digital menu when we asked what are choices are they pointed to a basic make your own sandwich. After seeing all the choices available via Tik tok and here wow we got shunned hella bad what a shame. Kids were super looking forward to trying this place too😕😕😕😕😕
