I left San Francisco 4 years ago and make a point to bring cash every time I will be coming back to SF so that I can swing by here and grab a sandwich. I love their House Hot Sauce and my fries never make it to the bridge when I'm on my way out. YUM. Getting hungry just thinking about this place!

Wonderful sandwich shop! Owner was amazing and very welcoming! Now the sandwich was the best part. Recommend the hot pastrami and ask him how he makes his favorite!

I've been wanting to try this place for years! I've had my Fav sandwich spots all over the city, and Yellow Sub now will dominate that list! As they boast “The restaurant's welcoming atmosphere and affordable prices make it a neighborhood favorite, drawing in loyal patrons for over 30 years.” must try!

OMG THIS PLACE IS ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS 👌. The sandwiches are HUGE! Each one hand-made with love. We walked almost 2 miles to go here because it came highly recommended. IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT- 10/10 wonderfulness! We wanted to go back, but it was our last day in San Francisco. Im headed there on my next trip.
Try it. I promise you'll be hooked! 😉

Classic sf spot. Talked to the guy. Hes pretty chill, got a few kids and just loves making sandwiches. He’s good at what he does what can I say. His name is romi or something like that. To be honest, not a big amount of meat but still really good. Super solid sandwich, I think my Beli gave it a 7.3 which is pretty actuate.

I visited this place once and loved it. The staff was friendly, the food was very yummy and their chip-cut fries were a standout. They’ve been around for 50 years and it’s easy to see why.

Not to be dramatic or anything, but this is the best sandwich I’ve had in a while. The place is run mom and pop style and everything is made to order. The sandwiches have lots of meat and good, toasted bread. Get them with the works.

One important note - the place is cash only. If you forget cash they’ll be happy to make your order while you run to an ATM two blocks away.

I look forward to returning!

We live in the neighborhood, so this is one of our go to places for sandwiches. And come with an appetite as one large sandwich is a meal for two. Or two meals for one. Although the pastrami was delicious, I was disappointed with the last one as it was more bread than meat. Kinda disappointing when you get towards the end of your sandwich and all you're doing is eating a bread roll.

Old school. Cash only. Huge portions, a large sandwich is like 4 sandwiches elsewhere. Visiting from the East Coast and I approve.

Edit: Tried their fresh cut fries and they are to die for.

The sandwiches over here I like no other my hand to god. Their steak & cheese tasted so good I wanted to shutout to the rooftops. The owners made me feel very welcomed I loved the imagery inside the building. I would highly recommend this joint to anyone.
