“All the waitresses there are very friendly“

“Love the cheerful, friendly welcome and the first timer helpfulness! Delicious sandwiches prepared to order, personal preferences are catered to. Always something new to try, creative variations.“

“Aside from the fact this place is literally down the hill from me.. the owner & his beautiful family are Gucci ASF. Always smiling no matter what.. I've seen him take over this place, update & upgrade expanding not only his professionalism but the overall popularity in owning/running a well established business. I highly recommend stopping by for one of his infamous handcrafted deli sandwiches. Yooo, you don't even knoow!! 🤤 As for the liquor aspect of it, your boy's got a top notch selection of shelf spirits varying from Bourbon, Rye, Tequila, Gin, Vodka, Scotch whisky, Amaro & even Bitters! Oh Mylanta Georgia I almost forgot.. 🤗 this family owned business even has the types of snacks & munchies we all crave; don't let me get started on the Mexican candies yo 😆 I'm telling y'all if you still think it's too good to be true, just see for yourself!! Well worth the spending xoxo“

“Bomb place to eat very good sandwiches. Try it out you'll like it�“

“Amazingly consistent…Every bite feels like the result of years of perfecting balance and flavor. You can taste the care and craft that goes into every sandwich — from the fresh ingredients to the thoughtful layering. Whatever you order, it’s always just right. Truly a masterpiece in sandwich form.“

“I was in this restaurant for the very first time recently, and I left just completely impressed. I was in town doing business with the great folks at El Cajon Guitars and Music. Getting new strings on my guitar, and Frank and Maria suggested this diner—and I’m so glad I listened to them!
The whole spot is comfortable, but the service is what stood out, as much as my roast beef sandwich.From the minute I walked in the door, Vicky—the owner—was wonderful. She was the only one working there, but she didn’t seem rushed at all. She greeted me with a big, bite, genuine smile right away, and we had a pleasant little conversation. Right off the bat, I didn't feel like just a number; I felt like a true friend, and that warmth made me feel immediately at ease.
I got the roast beef and cheddar sandwich, and I decided to take it to go. I drove over to Lindo Lake to sit and enjoy it, and I must say, the sandwich itself was truly wonderful. The beef had a great flavor, and what made it perfect was the freshness of the fixings, the tomato and lettuce were crisp and bright, which really balanced the meat out. It was so good, in fact, it was almost as good as the ones my Mom used to make, and that’s the highest praise I can give!
In fact, that sandwich was so good, I had a little trouble keeping it all to myself! While I was sitting there, a goose waddled right up and was looking at my sandwich like it wanted a piece of it. I had to laugh; even the local wildlife knows good food when it sees it!
If you're looking for a fantastic sandwich, you absolutely ought to stop in here. I was a first-timer, but It certainly won't be the last visit. My dad always taught me to support the businesses of my friends, and Vicky truly made me feel like a friend. I’ll certainly be back to support her business and try other sandwiches. I highly recommended this diner for a truly great experience.Thank you, Vicky for making me feel so welcome at your place.“

“Everything on the menu , It’s all good !“

“los tacos de cabeza y tripitas son los mejores... la asada, adobada la birria el pollito riquísimo todo las aguas frescas deliciosas“

“The best quality , service and prices around! Don’t go anywhere else“

“This is the only place I get lunch from! I started going because it’s so close to my work but I only go here now because the food is always delicious and seriously SO fresh. The owner and his family are really the nicest people ever. The food is such a great price and the portions are so big that even the half size fills me up! This place will forever get my business! I have photos of the Italian but forgot to take a picture of my delicious Cobb Salad. I recommend this place to all my coworkers!“

“Awesome sandwiches!!! Must have if in the area“

“One of the hidden gems in this area. Whenever I'm in the area I always make sure to come by and pick up a sandwich or two.
The lady working there is always so nice and smiley, it certainly made today's rainy weather feel less gloomy.

The prices are very generous and the ingredients are very fresh.
-The mayonnaise, mustard, banana peppers, red onions, lettuce, tomato, and giant slither of pickle ("pickled" cucumber?) was very well-balanced, nothing overwhelmed one-another.

-I ordered The Valley Melt -corned beef, turkey (on sourdough I think)
The other was The Pastrami melt
And 2 slices of Bacon on the side (which was devoured as soon as I got in the truck)

“If you’re looking for a delightful dining experience, look no further than Sunrise Deli New York Style in Spring Valley, CA! I recently had the pleasure of visiting this gem, and I can’t stop raving about it.

From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warmth and enthusiasm by Ashley, who provided top-notch customer service. Her extensive knowledge of the menu made my decision-making process a breeze. After hearing her recommendations, I ordered the Chilaquiles Verde, and let me tell you, it was an explosion of flavors! The dish was beautifully presented, featuring perfectly cooked sunny side up eggs, seasoned country potatoes on each side, and two delicious sausage patties that complemented the chilaquiles perfectly.

To top off my meal, Ashley suggested mixing their special blend iced tea with a splash of lemonade. This refreshing concoction was the perfect balance of sweet and tangy, enhancing my dining experience even further.

Overall, Sunrise Deli is a must-visit for anyone in the area. The combination of exceptional service, delicious food, and a welcoming atmosphere makes it a standout spot. Thank you, Ashley, for making my visit so memorable! I can’t wait to return and explore more of the menu!“

“Kind, helpful people, amazing fresh food! They hand make the chicken salad so I try to call before I get there to give them time. They are amazing.

Dietary restrictions: They work so hard to meet all my difficult allergies. They are always so kind.

Kid-friendliness: They are awesome and will not cook up your human or animal children.“

“Best sandwiches :) The bread makes it!“

“I shopped today. It would be in-fair to rate the store at this time. The store was slammed, I mean SLAMMED! Due to the Covid19 scare. I did simple shopping and I was there for three hours!“

“So, I recently tried this restaurant on a whim when ordering through Postmates. WOW, I was impressed. I got the sandwich with the roast beef and the coleslaw, and it was absolutely delicious! Furthermore, the prices are outstanding, especially considering the high quality of the food. Check it out if you are in the area--I am sure that you will not be disappointed.“

“I am thoroughly impressed and grateful for the staff at this location.We were out of town and returned on Christmas and needed a ham for our Christmas dinner.I got to the store three (3) minutes before they closed, and they STILL served me with patience. They were scheduled to close at 4:30 p.m. and I got there at 4:27 p.m.I really thought I was up the creek and would not our dinner meat. Needless to say the thought caused me to be in a slight panic. ALL of the employees were calm and patient in processing my purchase.I'll always remember this experience with gratitude.“
