Great place for lunch if you're in the area. Staff is always really cool and they throw in a cookie with your food. Last time I went I went with the half and half with the chicken Cesar sandwich and the chicken pot pie soup. Both were great but the soup was super choice. Plus the have a rotating soup menu for real broth heads such as myself. Plenty of parking and they are super quick especially if you call ahead. There is plenty of seating inside and they also have a few tables out front. Definitely grab a sandwich if you work in the area.

One of my favorite deli's. When I started working in the area, my coworkers would rave about this place. I was sold when we had some sort of event and Lit'l Pepper catered! Around 2019, I switched departments and started working in La Mesa so I missed this place on the rotation. Glad to say for the past year, I'm back in the area and happy it's back on the rotation. Their sandwiches are great but as of late, I've been getting the 1/2 salad and soup combo. My favorite day is Thursday as one of the soup choices is the spicy chicken sausage gumbo. One of the best things is that when we do order lunch, we do so through their website. I'll always note who the order is for on the little memo line and they'll print a little ticket to attach to each order--it's so well packed! I love the attention to detail and they always get it right. If you order in, they're pretty efficient, and the line moves quickly. Can't forget their cookies! Always a wonderful way to compliment the meal.

Love this little local deli located in the Kearny Mesa area of San Diego. It's a little hard to see from the street because the area looks like it's a bit industrial and it's almost hidden. But I think this is actually an advantage for locals. The place is always busy during it's lunchtime rush but you have the opportunity to place your order online or the phone ahead if you'd like.I've had both breakfast and lunch here and it has yet to miss. For breakfast, I love their croissant sandwiches, especially the Ham and Cheese. It is PACKED with lots of delicious ham, melty cheese and fluffy egg. For lunch, they are known for their Jurassic Pork sandwich, which is a definite winner for juiciness and flavor. But for other options, may I suggest my personal deli favorite - the Chicken Salad sandwich or the wrap! So good and they don't skimp on the chicken either. I'm also a fan of the Gyro sandwich stuffed with tomato, onion, lettuce and feta cheese, served with tzatziki. I definitely am looking forward to more sandwiches from here. I also want to try the many soups they have (they have daily specials for them!) and the salads look plentiful and delicious. Lastly of note...the employees seem to always be welcoming and friendly. Definitely a plus!

I was looking for a breakfast spot that I haven't tried out and I came across this spot and one of the pictures showed me favorite breakfast food: an egg and cheese croissant. I visited late on a Wednesday morning so parking wasn't a problem and the lot looks like it would suffice even on a busy day. I was greeted by friendly staff who didn't make me feel rushed at all. There's lots of seating inside and the place looked pretty clean. I ordered an egg and cheddar cheese croissant and then I opted to add turkey to it. I also got a delightful oatmeal cookie and was given a complimentary sugar cookie and a small cup of the soup of the day with my meal. That was a kind touch. While the sandwich was a touch subpar and left me wanting more flavor especially from the egg and croissant, the cookies are a must and if you go for nothing, go for the cookies. I appreciate the lovely staff that was there, so I'm willing to give this spot another shot. I'll try a more popular item next time.

This is my first time and the Service is goood they are welcoming! They were very attentive and patient and understanding. They were very informative and the manager is splendid. I wish him the best and to have nothing but blessings and a good day. He's very kind and their entire staff. They have great choices. I ordered Thai beef and yummmmmmm... I ordered the half and half and it was good because I get the best of both worlds. And their bomb chicken soup! It's filling! They even have chips and cookies and it's clean! Come check them out they're so good! And they're so hospitable this is real service and a real good restaurant that makes you feel good when you go in and when you leave. I was having a horrible day and their kindness helped more than they know. Thank you to the staff! I am now a regular I'll be coming back!

Nearly a year ago I was fortunate enough to stumble upon this Gem of the City. One expects the sandwiches to be consistent and the soups as well, after all, you simply follow the recipe. But for the service to ALSO be consistent is rather unique in San Diego. If you eat out a lot you know what I'm talking about. Poor Service 60% of the time. But not here, here they always greet you with a smile and are so helpful. My only sandwich place. Easy on the wallet, great parking, offering super quality Roast Beef. I only order the R.B., can not speak to other proteins.

This is absolutely my favorite sandwich spot in the world. I don't care what anybody says. This has the best of the best. The place is amazing. The owner is freaking awesome. And if you can get the comeback sandwich, get it that's what I get every every single time and I just keep coming back.
