    A great hole in the wall right around the corner on Fillmore street! This asian-owned mom & pop are very generous and helpful with any questions that you may have . As soon as you place an order, they'll whip it out in 3-5 minutes depending on toasting!! They offer a wide variety of bread options from Dutch crunch to sour dough, same for substituting / adding veggies. This time around I got the crab sandwich and it was surprisingly filling and delicious! For the price of a seafood sandwich, you're definitely getting your bang for your buck, I was ordering with the impression that it would be imitation crab meat. When I'm working and on my break in the area, I'll be continuing to support them :).

    Bulgolgi sandwich
    Jaime R.

    Grabbed the small bulgogi sandwich--delicious and flavorful, though a bit light on the meat. Still, an ok deal for $11.45. The shop is small and could use a remodel, but the friendly staff and quick service made up for it. Great spot for a quick bite!

    Hole in the wall sandwich shop next to busy Fillmore street. The subs are a great price but expect a long wait. There were less than 10 people in front of me and I waited for 20 minutes. I got a large number 1 special on wheat. Would recommend if you're in the area looking for something on the go.

    Veggie Sandwich on Dutch Crunch roll

    Stopped by for a quick lunch while working in the neighborhood. Super fast service and the sandwich was very tasty. I live in San Diego now and it's always great to come back to San Francisco and find Dutch Crunch rolls. It's a small shop but they have some small tables inside and outside to sit and eat at.

    There are no shortage of great sandwich spots. While this doesn't make the list of elites I was still pleased. I came straight away for the bulgogi sandwich. This is the type of sandwich offering you won't get many places if anywhere I've seen. It was good but lacked any pop outside of the bulgogi itself. Would 100% order this again if I wanted a sandwich and I was nearby. You would be very happy if this was your local sandwich spot. It's not a spot you can eat at so the ambiance isn't much, but the service was quick and they seem pretty efficient. (4.3 stars)

    Crab sandwich
    Patrick C.

    Clean & delicious crab sandwich. Bread was perfectly toasted, still soft & scooped. Just the right amount of lettuce, tomato, salt & pepper & mayo. I am definitely coming here for this again when I'm in the area & looking for a solid lunch.

    I don't leave a lot of reviews but I work on Fillmore and this is the BEST sandwich spot in the area, inexpensive and delicious they're small cute shop has outdoor seating, friendly staff and the food is great. Highly recommend.

    Amazing. Fantastic. Toasted to perfection. There's no real dining area, so we ate on the one table outside, but thats how you know it's good. Very accommodating to modifications on the sandwich. Our sandwiches in the photos are the small size sandwich which were the perfect portion in our opinion. We 100% recommend a sandwich from this spot and would return again.

    Egg, Bacon & Cheese
    Paolo B.

    Came back for the 2nd time in a couple weeks, and this time it was for the bacon, egg and cheese sandwich, which I had been eying since my first visit. I placed my order in-person and it was ready in under 10 minutes. I went with the bacon egg and cheese on a sourdough roll and requested the large size. They also gave me the option to add lettuce and tomato, which in hindsight I could've done without. Glad they used fresh cracked eggs for the sandwich, which is served as scrambled/omelette style. Wasn't sure if I could order over-easy or a fried egg, because I think that would have elevated the sandwich for me. Overall though, this sandwich was a miss for me. $10 for breakfast sandwich is ok but there was just 3 of the thinnest slices of bacon which was a bit of a let down. If bacon is the main protein, I'd expect there to be a bit more bacon as the sandwich was 95% bread and egg. The sandwich was dry, so I ended up adding mayo and sriracha when I got home to bring out more flavor and cut through the dryness. Definitely would not order the breakfast sandwich again, but would still be interested trying their traditional deli sandwich options.

    Nice surprise. I always pass this place on my way home from school. Decided to try it Friday and no disappointment at all. I had the pastrami sandwich, and the portions and quality were amazing. I will be back. Small but mighty.

In researching places near where we were staying, we learned about the Italian deli and shop. We were looking forward to stopping by to check out the store and grab lunch. The store itself is very cute and charming, full of so many items - fresh meats and cheeses, imported olive oils, pastas, desserts, wine, and liquor to name a few. There is an area where you can get coffee drinks and there is a deli area for ordering sandwiches, pizzas, specialty dishes, and salads. The variety of options is plentiful. I ordered an iced coffee beverage, which was great. My significant other and I ordered a sandwich to go, which we were splitting for a light lunch back at the hotel. The person helping at the counter was not very friendly or helpful with questions. We asked for our sandwich to be made on the Dutch Crunch bread, as we were looking forward to trying it. Unfortunately, when we got back to the hotel, it turned out that the sandwich was made on a regular ciabatta roll, which was not fresh. Additionally, the sandwich was mostly mixed greens. For the price, I expected more meat. With so many great food options in San Francisco, it is likely we won't stop by on future visits to the City.

So much I was worried the ratio would be off. Told a friend that I didn't think it would be good. It would just taste like meat. I was wrong. Coleslaw wasn't too creamy or too sweet. Just right. Only thing I would change is asking for more peppers, they were so good so bright. Waffle Fries were great waffle fries, but the Mick Sauce was beyond great. To me it was like the best tartar sauce I've ever had. Maybe better. I would probably get an extra Mick Sauce and use it on my Sandwich. Friend got the Bradly and gave it top marks. All three meat flavors came through, jalapeños had great flavor that added to the sandwich. It's not cheap, but it's damn good. Be prepared to wait in line. I arrived around 1:50 and ordered around 2:20. I'm sure there are busier times. 100 percent worth the wait. They played CAKE and the employees were fantastic.

I ordered the 49er and it just seemed like a greasy goopy mess. It felt like the bread congealed into a mushy paste due to all the dressing and wetness? Also my sandwich was 1000* even after walking back to my car and letting it cool with the wrapper off it was still way to hot to eat for a long while and burnt my mouth. Maybe they intentionally make them super hot to withstand long distance takeout deliveries... I dunno. Plus standing in a long line with a velvet rope baking in the sun, long wait, lack of parking, navigating skuzzy neighborhood to go there (literally saw a guy going #2 on the corner on my way out)... overall I wasn't that impressed with Deli Board compared to all the rave reviews I have heard over the years. SF lacks truly awesome sandwich places so I will give give this another shot and report back with updates, perhaps I hit it on an off day.

Three people working a tight space with three toaster ovens, and everything comes toasted by default. Their DNA is from pizza making, and it shows. The menu has around 40 sandwiches, so I asked the guy behind the counter for his two favorites and started there. The Godfather: Genoa and pepper salami, oven gold turkey, provolone, and garlic spread on Dutch crunch. Great texture, warm from the toaster, and the garlic spread ties it together. A San Francisco classic done right. The San Franpsycho: it normally comes with honey turkey, but they had rotisserie chicken on the spit so I swapped it in. Gouda, bacon, pesto, garlic spread, and remoulade. The pesto comes through right away and the chicken tastes like real rotisserie. Fair warning: it is messy. It drips. Do not eat this in the car. I could not find a clean way to eat it and ended up taking half home to finish. In their defense, I went rogue with the chicken order so that might have messed up the flow. If you're a sandwich person in SF, put this on the list. I'll be back soon.
