Morucci's Si Mangia Bene

Hours are literally closing until 5pm no where near 5pm it’s 3:13pm and the door was locked 3 employees inside cleaning. They waved as if they were closed. Lol and when you call no one answer…not sure why there is even hours posted let alone a phone. Might as well close the business and start a side hustle or food stand probably save you more money. Don’t recommend at all though.

My office is in downtown Walnut Creek and I decided to take a break from the overpriced, underwhelming, $20 lunches that come with a side of poor service and go for a little five minute drive, where I found Morucci’s. They offer a large menu of sandwiches and salads, and because it was difficult to narrow it down. I decided to start at the top and go with the #1 one Italian sub. It was really incredible! Rather than add on the suggested mustard or pesto, I asked for an unconventional ingredient to be added to an Italian sandwich (Mayo) and I was grateful that they didn’t (outwardly) judge me for my choice, because combined with the Italian dressing it was the perfect creamy, tangy combo. There’s a lovely outdoor shaded eating area where I was able to enjoy my sandwich. I will absolutely be back very soon. I’m hoping to work my way down the menu, but that Italian sub is going to be tough to beat. More Morucci’s, please!

Been coming here since I was a little kid. Staple sandwich shop for everyone in the area. Some of my favorites are the #5, #2, #6 1/2, #13. Salad's are also great. Get the 1/2 salad 1/2 sando, best bang for your buck.

Amazing local sandwich shop! It gets very busy around lunch, so don't expect a quick visit. I recommend the Italian sandwich- the pesto is delicious. Or the prosciutto and mozzarella!

So good! Got the Italian sub but made it hot and the BLT. Both so, so good and you can eat outside in the shade. Will be back.

Best deli around! Economically stellar! There is always a line out the door at lunch time when the weather is nice. The line to order moves really fast so stay and be patient. Once you order you get your food quickly.

As far as the deli goes, EVERYTHING is so good! I love a #4 on sliced whole wheat, turkey/cranberry with cream cheese, sprouts, lettuce and tomato and mayo (TRY IT) soooo delish! Also I have had the #16 tri-tip sandwich toasted. The steak is cooked to perfection like at home. I also love how they have EVERY flavor of Kettle chips and diet soda known to man. The dessert pastries are so good that I have to stay away from those. The pecan bar..omg!

Ok my last two recommendations are the macaroni salad (like homemade) and caprese mozzarella/tomato/basil dish are completely addicting too!

Give yourself an extra 15-20 mins to order and enjoy. Covered tables to sit outside.

Parking: Always lots of spots to park on the street for free.

Every time my sandwich is soggy, I'm tired of complaining and having them remake it.
