    Well I lived most of my life on sandwiches of all sorts, from east cost to west cost, and I cant never resist a good sandwich it's my happy place, and let me say this is my second visit to beach hut deli, and blown away both times and hoping to continue to do so, this sandwich hits all the right buttons and will put a smile on your face that'll be very hard to wipe off, so congratulations to beach hut deli to one of the best sandwiches I've ever had in California, and sorry I forgot to take a before picture because I was excited

    4 out of 5 's. When they get a dark beer there, I'll give a 5 Otherwise it's a five star local neighborhood hangout. Good sandwiches, good service, fun, relaxing environment (indoors or outdoors), this is the spot. PLENTY of places to park if you're a BIkE If you're driving it's MORE CHALLENGING. Enjoy! This weekend I had the classic BLT with avocado. Yummy before biking & body surfing.

    My husband and I were really disappointed with our Cali Cheesesteak sandwiches. We were in the area, so we had to stop by and pick up two Cali Cheesesteaks. I was so excited to eat my sandwich. I was starving and had been craving it all day. Unfortunately, something was off. It didn't taste like how we remembered it. It was lacking flavor and cream cheese. I frequented this place because they were so generous with their cream cheese and their Cali Cheesesteaks were meaty.

    My Company recently ordered Lunch for about 100+ people from Beach Hut Deli, and the Sandwiches and Salads were amazing, everyone couldn't get enough.... so the next day, I had to find them & have lunch there again. I had never had Cream Cheese in a sandwich before, but it was delicious. Where have you been my whole life? The staff was super friendly, gave recommendations, and when I ordered the Santa Cruz Pastrami Sandwich, they recommended me getting it hot, which adds melted Provolone cheese. Amazing. This is a great spot to visit, and they also have Beer on tap. There is lots of parking, as it is in a Plaza, and it's on the North East corner of 17th St & Irvine Ave. Go check them out!

    This sandwich spot has been all over my Tik Tok and it was exciting getting to try it out. They have indoor and outdoor seating, we decided to sit outside since it was such a nice day out. The sandwiches are made fresh to order and they don't play about loading up your sandwiches. Definitely the best bang for your buck. Like do you see the amount of avocado on the sandwiches??! We loved both of our sandwiches and it was a great lunch, the XL is definitely for bigger appetites or to be shared. It was busy on a Saturday afternoon with in-person and takeout orders, we only had to wait a few minutes for our food to be ready. ig: @cravingswithcat

    This was my first time visiting and the sandwiches here exceeded my expectations! Kurt and his team took good care of us and gave their recommendations, which were the Surf Bird with turkey, avocado, bacon, and cream cheese and the Malibu which is their pastrami sandwich. You can tell they use the freshest ingredients and quality meat. Probably one of the best pastrami sandwiches I ever had, and they use the same pastrami as the iconic Langer's Deli in LA, which makes sense! Every bite was just so good, I can't recommend this place enough. Bonus points for the cool patio they have with a pool table + $2 draft beers EVERY FRIDAY! I will definitely make the drive again to come back.

    WOW their sandwiches are great!! Have been looking for a great sandwich shop in Costa Mesa/newport and I think I've finally found it. They cover two of my most important conditions for a good sandwich: flavor and size. The Surfin Bird was not only super fresh and delicious, but GIANT! Definitely worth the money especially with what places like Jersey Mike's/Mendocino Farms are charging nowadays! I think our favorite was the Malibu which was a super simply pastrami sandwich with avocado, but they have to put something in there that just takes the flavor to the next level. Aside from the food, the employees and owner are incredibly kind and the entire atmosphere is so lovely. It truly feels like you've stepped off of the beach at San Onofre into a little hut for some good. Best part, they have wine & beer options too!! Definitely want to try their $2 Beer Fridays and their new trivia night on Tuesdays! I think they have a deal for thursday beers as well but will have to see. HIGHLY recommend to anyone passing through or local to the area!

    Oh my goodness that was delicious. Lets start with Elana and the Service. 10-10 ,she was very helpful and knew the Menu so well I took her suggestion and it was instant appreciation. I had the Malibu Sandwich and when I tell you it was a hit, it is as instant. The Garlic Bread was a perfect choice to hold everything together. The Pastrami was tender and flavorful. The Avocado gave it a different but delicious texture that has to be experienced for yourself. This might have been my first time here but certainly not my last. I will probably dedicate the next couple of days getting through the complete Menu. Maybe February, because I'll most like get the Malibu the next couple of times. This was a hit.

    Great tasting sandwiches. I ordered the Skinny Dipper and Malibu and they both hit the spot. Kind of on the pricier side with smaller portions when compared to Board n Brew who I think is its main competitor, but it still doesn't take away from how good it is. Great beach vibes with reggae playing in the background, a bar where you can order beer, and plenty of TVs with sports on.

    We love grabbing sandwiches from Beach Hut Deli in the Newport Beach! The Surfin' Bird is always our go-to and the beach bites are sooo good!! Everything is super fresh, portions are huge, and the staff is honestly so sweet and amazing every time we come in. Such a fun, easy spot to keep coming back to! We also love their Aloha Fridays with $2 beer ALL DAY LONG! Such a steal! Love this spot!

    Truly one of the best Reuben sandwiches I've ever had. The quality is top notch. Awesome atmosphere with lots of TVs and a really spacious outdoor area with a pool table. They're also dog friendly! I wish I lived closer.

    I'm a beach hut fan, specifically this location. I always get the California sandwich and am always satisfied. My only complaint is I ordered sprouts in my sandwich but didn't receive any at all which was a bummer. But I love how much avocado they put in this sandwich. The peperoncinis are delicious too along with the spicy ranch.

    The place is super cute! Beach vibes! Soooooo good! Loved everything that we tried! The Sunburn was my favorite! Try the Cider it was yummy too! The staff were sooo nice!

    First run at it, and it was legit! Sandwich was so dense with Turkey. Pay for quality is the deal. I am alright with that.

    Very tasty. My sandwich was a mess. But that was probably my fault. Parking can be tricky, but worth it. We will be returning.

    Deli Nerds is one of my fave local eats in Costa Mesa. Good price, good food, and good people. My…read morefave is the banh mi slider but their breakfast choices are also amazing. Every time I go to Deli Nerds, I am greeted by the warmest staff and most welcoming vibes. Will definitely recommend. Parking is plentiful and the patio is beautiful. The facilities are clean and the service is superb!

    I decided to try this place out today and drove there from my house in Newport Beach. The food was…read moregood, but I was very disheartened at the portion size based on the cost. I ended up getting an egg cheese and hash brown burrito that cost me $10. If I wanted to add a protein, it was another five dollars, which is absolutely insane. The other challenge was in the picture you'll see that it's not very big and the ingredients are on one side and the other almost half of the burrito is folded tortilla. The staff was very nice and accommodating, but the value just simply isn't there. There are a lot of places that have a really good burrito that have much more in the way of ingredients inside it and cost the same. If he looks at the picture of the breakfast burrito on this Yelp and compare to my burrito, you'll see that the one in the Yelp pictures got twice as many ingredients not mostly tortilla as you could see on the left of my picture. Pretty disappointing.
