I recently had the pleasure of trying the 'Volcano' veggies wrap, which exceeded my expectations in terms of freshness, juiciness, flavor, and presentation.
The service was prompt and efficient, and I was impressed enough to save the location for future visits.
My only suggestion for improvement concerns the pricing of add-ons. When I attempted to add protein to my $16 veggie wrap, the $12 charge for beef seemed excessive, bringing the total to $30 after tax.
I believe a more reasonable $5 add-on fee would be ideal, even if it means a slightly smaller portion size.
Despite this, the quality and taste of the food were exceptional. I appreciate the attention to detail and care in preparing the dish. With a minor adjustment to the add-on pricing, I believe this establishment has the potential to excel even further.
Good luck!

At $18-20 for a 7” take-out sandwich, it should be excellent. And it was! Prices are still out of whack.

I got the Salty yesterday. It was expensive. My fault I didn’t realize it was pricey. Most of their sandwiches are in the teens, mine was $30
While I’d probably opt for any of their other sandwiches in the future… damn the Salty was a tasty sandwich. These guys make a solid brisket sandwich. The staff are friendly too.
Great sandwich shop!

Small but mighty sandwich shop. Fresh roasted turkey on Dutch crunch…your choice of add-ons and condiments make this the best sandwich in Marin and So many choices to customize your favorite sandwich. It is situated in a small grocery store so you add on soda, chips, cookies etc.
First time at this deli and very disappointed. We asked for pineapple habanero sauce on our sandwiches but when we received our sandwiches, there was nothing but mayo on it. The turkey meat was gross. And the grossest part is that people working there do not wear gloves or hair net. The guy that was making sandwiches pants kept falling off his butt and you could see his underwear and he kept pulling it up and kept touching everyone's food with same hands. Everyone kept touching everything else and then touching food with same hands. Yuck!!! Never going back there. My sandwiche went into the garbage.

Best sandwich in Sausalito, with a lot of fresh, fun, and unique ingredients. I suggest you order a rando sando and give those sandwich artist full artistic freedom over the sando, you won’t be disappointed.

Was traveling and punched in deli on my trucks navigation and pow found this little gem. I had the turkey with the works and i was blown away. The fresh turkey and fresh toppings were amazing. Tasted like a turkey sandwich with my personal garden toppings…so fresh i loved it. I ate my sandwich in the parking lot and made a point to go back in and thank them for such a great sandwich. I travel for work and eat a lot of deli sandwiches and this is hands down the best deli sandwich i have had in years! Well played Davey Jones, i look forward to many more sandwiches every time i travel near Sausalito.

Amazing wrap, can't recommend enough! I finally got the chance to visit Davey Jones Deli and was not disappointed. My Vulcan sandwich was beyond delicious. The perfect combination of fresh ingredients. The staff were super cool, and though I was a bit distracting with asking a lot of questions, they were kind, patient, and I could feel the passion for the place. I also got to hear about the compassionate sourcing of materials and am so happy about the lower carbon footprint of my sandwich. Can't wait to go back and hope many more get to experience this awesome deli!

I never write reviews, but we were so disappointed I had to for this place. The man who took our order wouldn’t let us make it how we wanted, which was a simple sandwich order. The sandwiches we received were honestly gross. The turkey was gray, yes GRAY. It was under seasoned, bland and the vegetables were not fresh. Plus the guys making the sandwiches didn’t wear gloves. To top it off, our sandwiches are about $15 each. So disappointing.
I’m a bit dumbfounded. This is where expectations and reality don’t align. Came in yesterday for a sandwich after seeing the rating. The guy working the counter wasn’t very friendly. When asked for suggestions he didn’t know the menu well enough to give one out. His response was it’s whatever you like. I don’t know what that even means or how that response helps in deciding. The menu itself is pretty busy adding to the confusion. And some of the sandwiches seemed slightly redundant. And various options/upgrades that don’t make a whole difference for a sandwich. Cut the options out. Focus on fewer but higher quality ingredients. Keep it simple all around. And maybe they need a clearer menu.In terms of sandwich-the amount of turkey in the sandwich was minuscule and perhaps a bit old. The veggies seemed mushy/wilted. The whole sandwich seemed mushy. Flavor was just ok. I didn’t eat the second half but was still hungry. Just unacceptable especially for the price they are charging.Sandwiches here don’t come cheap, which I don’t mind if it doesn’t seem cheaply made. Also having an Italian sandwich option would be good. It’s probably among the most popular type of sandwich, so for a shop not to have one is an interesting choice. Retraining the employee would be another place to start as well.

The best sandwiches I've ever had!! It's in a convenience store, hence the low score for atmosphere.
Please do not come here for the sandwiches. My partner and I made a special detour in order to try this spot (the deli nestled inside the bait shop was touted as being creative, incredibly delicious, and worth even a "4th meal").
The staff are not properly trained (efficiency, understanding/familiarity with menu, sanitation etc. - no gloves and frequent cross-contamination) and the amount of meat given is embarrassing. The turkey is not deli meat but rather chunks of actual meat -- which under the right circumstance, should theoretically be *better*, but because it's not stored properly and it's also aggressively dried under the oven -- absolutely inedible :(. Thankfully, the owner accepted responsibility and allowed me to return my uneaten sandwich for a refund. (I took a single bite and promptly spat it out - just to be clear I'm not making up my review and I did have a chance to taste the food.)
Davey's is trying hard to be exciting and innovative, but they don't have the basics down, so the result is an overpriced disappointment. A Subway sandwich would literally taste better even though it's much simpler with more basic and "cheap" ingredients.
I feel bad for them because they might be understaffed, but from observing them work, part of it also is not having a streamlined process in place. It's why corporations like Starbucks can churn out fifty drinks in 10 mins with almost no error, but their place struggles to keep five orders straight, with people sometimes running into each other, forgetting orders entirely, not knowing what has already been pre-prepared, etc.
Better top-down training and storage of ingredients would easily solve these issues. Sometimes less is more, too - a sandwich can be amazing with simply meat, some veg, a pickle, and cheese. Not everything has to be hyped.
