Ellie KravetsFebruary 19, 2016Lovely neighborhood spot w/friendly owners. They roast beef, turkey & lamb in a house & bake their own sourdough bread.On the weekend the place transforms to social neighborhood club w/happy hour!
Michelle WarrenMarch 7, 2014Fresh sourdough bread is to die for! All the sandwiches are HUGE and definitely shareable, especially if you're on your way to or from the beach. Food is great, but the service was slooooooooooow.
Rebecca WhiteMarch 26, 2017Friendly staff and quality food. You can bring your own bottle of wine and only pay $10 corkage. I love the owners and live music on the weekends!- Rebecca WhiteMarch 26, 2017The owners are nice and friendly. I love the homemade soups and baklava. Favorite thing is only paying $10 corkage for a bottle of wine.
Benjamin LevyFebruary 28, 2015#2 sandwich is an all time favorite. One of the best spot in the neighborhood and perfect when hanging by the beach.
Sumi Lee LevyAugust 9, 2014Excellent sandwiches and beautiful jazzy rock performance on Friday evening 6:30pm
Fantastic sandwiches. Get the #6 combo (turkey/salami/cheese) on Dutch Crunch!
Abbey KeckSeptember 22, 2013Get a turkey breast sandwich with Swiss cheese and avocado on soft roll, warmed up. Yummmmm.
Awesome Gyros and fresh Rotisserie Meat. Daily specials rock.- Mediocre deli, greek sweets were stale; we tossed them. I had a chuckle reading their "About That Darn Wait" sign; a hilarious humble-brag! "We're popular so an egg salad sub takes 35 minutes to make"
- Kawika's Ocean Beach DeliJanuary 16, 2014We are not closed!!!! We are open from 10am to 4:30pm daily.
Marsh GardinerOctober 15, 2016Excellent gluten free options and celiac-friendly awareness of cross contamination issues. They make their own gf sandwich bread options, too.
- The place isn't the same anymore. The menu is (mostly) the same, but their prices have risen to ridiculous levels. The new owner is smug & rude, the customer service is sad! We miss u Fredy!
