Hands down best sandwiches in the city. Been going here since I was a teen (always envied classmates whose parents got them lunch from here for field trips in elementary). Turned a few friends who did not grow up in the area into converts over the years as well. My favorite has got to be their pastrami COLD on toasted dutch crunch - I know, Simon and the gang always gave me the look whenever I say "cold," but I enjoy it cold, what can I say? The Mr. never liked pastrami from anywhere but he enjoys it here, and that says a lot because he's such a picky eater. His usual is cold salami on dutch crunch.I've recently taken a liking to their Turkey Club which is hella good! I was upset when the news first came out about Roxie's turning hands and I've just been sending the Mr. in for our order ever since. Today I had the pleasure of meeting Mick and he's just as fun. I'm very happy that they've kept the quality of Roxie's sandwiches and to know that the place is in good hands.Cheers to the new team and hoping for Roxie's to stick around for as long as I'm still alive!

I stumbled upon this sandwich shop, and it was a delightful surprise! The menu offers a wide variety of creative and classic sandwiches, all made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. I tried the tri-tip and pastrami sandwich, and it was filled with flavor--perfectly seasoned, with generous portions. The bread was fresh and had just the right amount of crunch. I wasn't a fan of the sweetness in the tri-tip. The pastrami was the winner for me. The staff was okay, and the location can get packed quickly since it's also a convenient store. If you're a sandwich lover, this place is a must-visit!

A sunset sesh at the beach calls for sammies for dinner. I got my friend and I the joker special (SM). I like sammies but my sandwich holding skills are below average and would make every asian parent disappointed. Don't let the size fool you, although i ordered a small, these were very filling. And the joker special? YUMM. If you haven't had Roxie's, do yourself a favor a make your way out here. Good service, good food.

Their famous sandwiches are always delicious. The parking is easy and the service is fast and friendly. My favorite sandwiches would be the crab salad, the hot link, or turkey bacon avocado.

This spot comes highly regarded by those who have eaten here and also many who've heard of the folklore legend of Roxie's but haven't gone here yet and keep talking about wanting to try it.So... I tried it. The business area of San Jose Avenue near Balboa Park is booming and we were in the area having Ice Cream @ Balboa Ice Cream, down the street and wanted a meal beyond the dessert we came to the area for and Roxie Food Center was PERFECTThe service was super friendly. The sandwich was made to order and both fast and fresh.The prices are on par for what sandwiches cost in Y2KXXIII (2023) and way way way better than any sandwich chain by leaps and bounds. The quality and quantity is all here. Solid meat to bread ratios you'd never ever find at a chain sandwich shop like Subway, Jersey Mike's, etc. and it's real deli quality sandwiches here. Accept none other and you'll be challenged to find a better place than this.I had a Pastrami and it was hot, lean, moist, tender, juicy and flavorful.

I believe I got the Turkey Club with no bacon, average sandwich... I got it hot. If I were to rate it out of 10 I would give it a 5/10. Expensive, I'd rather go to Little Lucca. I waited about 10 minutes to get my sandwich and my total came out to $18. The store is crowded inside.

If I want to treat myself, I got to Roxie's and get a junior joker sandwich. The combo of the meats, coleslaw, jalapeño, and bread *chefs kiss* it's just so good. (I always get it on hard sour though, more bread structural integrity ;] )The staff there are quite nice, and it's great to have a spot in the neighborhood with so many snacks and household essentials! (Some medicines in the front, cleaning supplies in the back)

Had the Joker that mercifully I split with a friend. And some whacky but good chips. I'd rate that sandwich easily in the top 10% (like, ever). So take that for what it's worth, and get down to Roxie's. Staff was super nice. It's on the other side of town, so I won't be a regular, but otherwise, it is sandwich heaven! Store with a counter situation.
