Surf Side Deli

Every great sandwich starts with soft, aroma-filled bread. The customer service was fast, and the sandwich was delicious. I will definitely be returning! Parking kind of Sucked but I made it work

Awesome hole in the wall spot. Great sandwich on delicious fresh bread! Very hard to find parking, location is tough but the food was worth it. Limited outdoor seating, directly in parking lot. Order to-go

You already know I'm a sucker for hoagies, so this review is about to be lit .I first tried half of a leftover hoagie from Surf Side deli last year when my hubby randomly stumbled up this eatery when he took a hoagie to-go on his lunch break at work-- he called me while he was eating on the road and said this was THE best sandwich he's ever had in his life and that he'll be saving me the other half to try later when he gets home-- aww, how sweet . lolHe got home a few hours later and the hoagie still held its shape and still looked appealing-- I took one bite and said "are you kidding me?!, if it taste this delicious now, I can't imagine how amazing it would be fresh !!" . FYI-- when he told me the name of the hoagie was JUST THE TIP, I died laughing and said "welp, we BOTH love just the tip" . Recently, we finally had the time to head over there to grab some fresh hoagies and really check the place out. We got there a close to noon and got lucky with no long line. The setup is super cute and totally gives California vibes-- love it . There's plenty of seating indoor and outdoors. The cashier that was working was very friendly and was patient with all my foodie questions-- he even gave me a just the tip sticker !! Don't forget to grab some chips and beer to go with your hoagie ! Here's what we ordered:Just The Tip-- raeger Smoked Tri-Tip, BBQ Sauce, Herb Mayo, Lettuce, Tomato, Jalapeno Crispies and Provolone Cheese on an Artisan Baguette . I want to start off by saying it's the PERFECT size and its honestly the most beautiful thing ive ever seen. Its super juicy, like the tri-tip has been marinating in its own juices and the flavors are savory, smokey, and freakingggg IMMACULATE . Baguette was super fresh-- fluffy on the inside and crisp on the outside. Love the herb mayo, provolone cheese is my FAV, and jalapeno crispies are a WINNER . If you don't know what to order, get this one, FOR SURE. We also decided to grab something new to us, which was the USS NIMITZ--Oven Roasted Turkey, Applewood Smoked Bacon, Lettuce, Tomato, Onion, Cheddar, Avocado and Herb Mayo on an Artisan Baguette . This one would definitely satisfy the craving for a basic sub . Everything was super fresh, but it just was a little bit on the drier side for me-- I think I would've loved this one with EXTRA herb mayo and as a protein-style lettuce wrap instead . I wonder if they offer that ? Ill ask, next time !All in all, another fantastic hoagie shop and I can't wait to come back and take another bite of just the tip. PS: I think they offer a spicy version-- You must bookmark this and try them out for yourself !

Cowabunga dudes and dudettes! If you're cruising for some righteous eats after catching some totally tubular waves, then make sure to hang ten into the Surf Side Deli in Point Loma. Located in a funky little strip mall full of fishing shops, this bodacious deli serves up some gnarly grub that will leave your tastebuds hanging five.Scoring a parking spot can be a bit of a bummer with all the switched-on surfers filling up the lot, but it's well worth maneuvering into a tight spot to soak up the heavenly aromas wafting from this hip hole-in-the-wall. One whiff of the fresh baked bread, veggie crispers and premium deli meats and you'll be amped to snag a table.I bellied up and ordered the Admiral's Avocado Delight sandwich - which may just be the most epic thing ever assembled between two slices of bread! Layers of creamy avocado, veggies galore and thinly sliced meats dripping with flavor all came together into the most mouthwatering meal since I paddled out at Pipeline. This glorious sandwich was a totally tubular taste treat!I washed it all down with an Arnold Palmer, which was a tasty mix of lemonade and iced tea. But as stoked as I was on the eats, I was majorly bummed that this bodacious deli closes up shop at 5pm. With my day gig keeping me hanging ten in the office late into the evenings, their early close makes scoring a handcrafted sandwich a bit tricky.So if you're looking to get pitted on some awesome eats, be sure to carve out some time before five and make the epic journey to the Surf Side Deli in Point Loma. Cowabunga! This shoreline shack serves up the sickest sandwiches in town - but you gotta get there fast before they shut it all down. A shore thing for good times and great food!

I never thought I would admit this but I love just the tip. Always good service here and quality is great. Parking can be scarce if it's busy.

Have to say this has to be a local favorite. Great sandwich with an awesome surf reggae vibe. Tatis returns is a pretty decent but I think I need to drop some spice into it.

This is one of my most favorite delis in San Diego, I try to find a reason to eat here anytime I am in the area. They do hot and cold sandwiches right. They have seating inside or out on their patio. Parking is tight, so carpool if you're coming with others.

Awesome spot for a good sandwich. Kind of hidden but good service and food. Nice chill atmosphere with a good seating area that is kinda hidden but spacious.

Dude, if you're reading this instead of grubbing down one of these bomb sandwiches you're already losing out. Best sandwich on the Point & I'd put a tri tip sandwich up against any sandwich in the city. Beyond the great fresh subs & salads, the local vibe isn't a put on, it's legit. Do yourself the favor and put your order in already. No Barneys. No Randos. Just the tip!

One of the best sandwich shops I have ever been to. Delicious bread with a crisp crust and soft chewy crumb. Top quality meats, especially bacon. Quality cheese & vegetables as well. Sandwiches are neatly made and done so quickly! My favorite Mac & potato salads too. Herb & black pepper, not sweet.
