Little Bistro

This is such a cute little corner deli in downtown Oakland. On the corner of Webster and 15h Street, this deli is in a great location and so easy to get to. Whether you want lunch, a snack, or a delicious smoothie, this place has what you're looking for!I've been to Little Bistro a several times now and I've always left more than satisfied. The menu offers a wide variety of sandwich choices. All of the "salad" type sandwiches (tuna, egg, chicken) are made fresh and from scratch. There are a variety of different breads and bagels to choose from too. If you're in the mood for dessert you can enjoy one of the many cookies baked from scratch. My favorite thing here are the delicious juices and smoothies. All of the fruit used has been freshly cut. Not of that frozen or drenched in syrup stuff. There are some smoothie options already on the menu, but you can create and customize your own. This is a great place to go whether you are in the area or make an effort to get to this charming spot. It's worth it and definitely a must try!

I was hoping to support a small business, but I can't eat from someplace where the person making sandwiches doesn't wash their hands or wear gloves after hanging cash.

I've had the privilege to work upstairs from Charles' Little Bistro, and many opportunities to go the easy route and get a quick lunch there. Also, his cookies are everybody's favorite office treat.He'll whip up made-to-order sandwiches, has several salads and a couple soup options ready-to-go, and makes excellent fresh fruit smoothies, and a bunch of different muffins. But the $1 home-made ginger-chocolate-chip cookie I had today just reminded me how precious Charles has been, and made me wonder why nobody had yelped about him yet.When the place is busy (meaning there are 2 people ahead of you), you can't be in a hurry as it's a one-man operation. Also, there are only 3 small tables, so you may have to consider take-out, which is the way I normally go. This has never been an issue so far, Charles is worth the wait. And did I mention the cookies?

Pretty good sandwiches - the owner is nice and is quick. I will go back for sure. They also have a variety of food here so I like that I can have different things for lunch.

I went in there this morning and purchased a raisin bagel. I took one bite, discovering that it tasted like raid! Took another bite, you would not believe a Silver Fish, or an insect of that type was right there, dead!! Freaked me OUT!!! Called the Health Department, and environmental health dept . to file complaint. Never Again will I eat there!!! Ever

This little bistro maybe small but Charlie makes the best salmon salad sandwish I've ever tasted!!!! It's off the hook!

Amazing sandwich from a local business. I eat here all the time and am never disappointed. Get the sandwich!!!

Little Bistro is a true hidden gem in downtown Oakland. I would highly recommend the sandwiches and salads. But when I'm in the area, I never miss getting the fresh juices, usually the apple-carrot-celery combination. It's far better than any coffee drink for an afternoon pick-me-up!

This little deli reminds me of the delis in New York, except that it's not open 24hr, but darn close!Charlie's like the grumpy uncle who doesn't like to play music at his shop. But his vegetarian sandwich are delish and the cookies are fantastic!If while you're waiting, he's got a seat and the east bay express!
