New to the building and found that we have this little convenient cafe downstairs. I ordered the Monday special a turkey avocado wrap with chips and a drink. It wasn't a giant jumbo portion but it was reasonable like portions a person should be eating so I was cool with it. The wrap tasted super fresh and lettuce was crisp and everything was just good and refreshing tasting. The others I was having lunch with ordered an Italian sandwich and a ham and turkey and everyone was happy with what they ordered. It was a good simple lunch no tricks no giant food or super tasty fatty gimmicks it was fresh, quick and good. read more

Such a cute little café right next to my work, which was perfect for a quick lunch break. I ordered the avocado toast and loved the twist they put on it: cream cheese, everything bagel seasoning, hot honey, and a sprinkle of crushed pepper that gave it a little kick. The portion was just decent and at $7.99, it's a great value for the quality. Super convenient location for me since I work in the building next door. It's part of my regular lunch rotation. I've had their bagel with cream cheese as well as the breakfast burrito which were decent. read more

I decided to go to Cafe O' Deli for a warm bowl of chili on a rainy cold Monday. The fall in Cali is not usually cold but due to the rain, I chose something warm. They had a few different soup choices but I chose chili because it's hearty and full of protein. I ordered the half sandwich and soup combo thinking it will be enough for a light lunch. To my surprise, the bowl of chili was amazing! The owner told me that their soup is made fresh daily and not from a can. Wow I can really taste the difference. The chili was full of beans, and ground beef. It was topped with cheese, crackers, and my favorite, Tabasco sauce and boy, it was the perfect combination of tangy spicy and heartiness. I also ordered the hot pastrami sandwich on a baguette bread. Usually baguette breads are hard and too brittle but not the bread here. They did a great job in keeping the bread with perfect softness. I especially enjoyed extra pickles with the right amount of mustard. While the seating area was not crowded because the time was late afternoon, I highly recommend this place. It's cozy, friendly, and the food was perfect! Bon a-petite~ read more

Oh yeah! the O'riginal Club sandwich was a winner. The presentation (albeit in a plastic to go box) was pleasant. I ordered the wheat bread toasted and it came out just right. The sandwich was filling. I ate half and I saved the rest for later. Easy access? Check! Right off the 5 and the 133 Simpsons Dart Board? Check! Plenty of parking? Check!

Mediocre sandwich shop, pretty much what you could make on your own at home with 2 mins of effort. Bread from a sterile loaf, meat and cheese from pre-sliced packs, store bought macaroni salad. I would assume the only clientele coming here are those from the business park that are too lazy or forgot to pack a lunch. Our office has picked up food from here a few times and it never fails to disappoint. read more

Upscale cafeteria food. Fair, quick and satisfying. Exactly what I expected. First time here. Not surprised but not let down either. Asian family run (not talkative but not rude. their English is good). Pretty quick service. Soup was pricey for what it was but healthy and fresh (veggie). Sando (italian sub) was ok. Fresh bread. Easy in and out. Would I come here again? Absolutely. Would I crave it from a distance, maybe not. read more

Oh yeah! I found my new lunch spot at work. My new job is hectic and I don't often get a chance to leave and go enjoy my lunch so when it came time to pick a place to eat one day, I was happy to discover that I could walk here and get my lunch. This cafe is only open for breakfast and lunch. They open early and stay open until about 3:30, so there's plenty of time to get breakfast or lunch. I only go for lunch but occasionally I feel like breakfast too. Prices are a bit steep but customer is amazing. Even with a line, they move quick. You can pay with your credit card because they a Square setup. I usually get the deal of the day or a sandwich/soup combo. You can't really go wrong with any choice - I've liked them all. Lunch comes with a pickle and this is my new go to spot. read more

Cute little hole in the wall in the middle of a business park. The store is run by Korean ahjummas, which means "aunty" but refers to middle-aged women. What this means to me is basically everything that you order here comes with that special home made touch. They specialize in sandwiches and soups but have a variety of other things. If you don't know what to order, you can always go with the daily special which is what I tend to do. They deliver too I think but I'm not sure what the requirements for that are. read more

After my pleasant experience couple weeks ago, i returned here to try another sandwich with couple of my friends. I noticed that the shop had gone through some makeover, not a dramatic one but just enough to give a nice vibe. I must say the roast beef sandwich i had today was an excellent choice. My sandwich had generous portions of meat and vegetable with a special spread, making it very flavorful. I had a bite of friend's tuna sandwich which had just the right amount of sauce, not too tangy and not too soggy, just right! They also had daily specials which caught my eyes which i'm very eager to try next time. read more

If you read the reviews you might think this place is bi-polar. The food is okay, and I do like the breakfast sandwich. But pretty bland overall. It does seem pricy but not over-priced. Place is usually busy but really no competition nearby. I had a great Korean deli near my last job but this not it. No warm and fuzzies from staff. That is fine but it does affect clientele. It is convenient, edible to good, and fairly quick. I do not bother with sandwich stamps and the should stop the program because that seems to be a major source of frustration read more

I work across from here, so naturally I was bound to cross paths with this place in one way or another. There really isn't anything that stands out here; it's simply cafeteria-style food that's decent enough, but a little overpriced. I'd rather drive down a street or two further for better quality food at a lower price, however, this place is good for convenience, especially if you're pressed for time! read more

Food is sustaining. Nothing stands out. The male owner is the sandwich nazi...like the soup nazi from Seinfeld. He doesn't smile. He's very curt. But what annoys me most is the stinginess. I work next door. Sometimes I take my team there for a quick bite. They have a frequent customer card. You get a stamp for every sandwich purchased (according to the card). On 2 occasions I have purchased multiple sandwiches and only received 1 stamp. When I asked him about it the second time he pushed back at first. Then when I challenged him more he said that he did give me multiple stamps. It was total BS. Another colleague had the same issue with him. So congrats - I'd rather get in my car and drive to another place like Sandwich Plus, than support this shop. read more

I work in the area, so I go here from time to time. There's not that many places around (besides the Spectrum, and that can be such a headache sometimes). Just alright - they have the standard stuff. I feel like their customer service could be a little better .... i.e. more friendly/nicer/welcoming. Whenever I go in there I feel awkward... Convenient for walking, however. And they do deliver (however the turnaround time could be shady, so check on how long it would be). I'm also rating down because they tend to microwave a lot of their stuff. I can just bring food into the office and microwave it myself. I don't like how the eggs and bacon/sausage aren't fresh, etc. So, I'd probably stick to the fresher, colder things like salads and sandwiches. read more

Walked over after being stuck in meetings since this morning. Good chicken salad sandwich. Accidentally ordered wrong bread so came back to order an additional slice of squaw bread - which I was then charged $2 for. I didn't even end up using it since i would have needed to slice it and add mayo to it... when I just really wanted to eat. Also hurt to pay $3 for an 8.4 oz Red Bull but hey... they know we're addicts and we. Will. Pay. Perhaps if I wasn't HANGRY, I'd bump it up to 3 stars... perhaps. read more

Pros: -Great quality breads, meats, cheeses, and veggies. -Convenient walking distance from many offices near by for lunch. -Breakfast sandwiches like the O! Muffin are def better than a McMuffin for just about the same price. - They put your sandwich together perfectly. Nothing dripping down the sides or spewing out the back. They are perfect...everytime. -Daily specials!!! -Delicious sandwiches just like grandma makes them with quality ingrediants. -O!Card, buy 9 sandwiches get the 10th free. -They deliver! Cons: -Slightly overpriced. I dont like paying 10 bucks for sandwich small drink and a bag of chips, but that't typical of a Togos type establishment so can't complain too much. read more

It's a sparsely decorated sandwich spot, with a little bit of seating, but it's clear this is a grab-n-go type place. After picking up the sandwiches, I cut both in half and ate half of each. I can't really remember what I got, but that was kind of besides the point anyways. They offer a variety of breads, so I opted for dutch crunch and a regular french roll. The dutch crunch wasn't as good as others I've had from other notable sandwich places, but the french roll was great! I liked the construction of the sandwiches, as they were tightly wrapped and not over-stuffed. Good ratios and not too large as to not be able to wrap your mouth around it. But as for the content itself, I just wasn't blown away. It was perfectly normal, but I didn't feel anything beyond that. As a lunch place, I feel like it's a good option if you want a sandwich, but if you've got something closer to you that is marginally similar, I'd head there first.

I used to come here way more often back when I had recurring appointments in the area, but these days I rarely ever find myself in South OC. Tonight, however, I had a last minute opportunity fall into my lap when I was invited off the wait list to attend a Yelp Elite event at Onyx Golf. Naturally, I had to make an "unnecessary" bakery detour before moseying my way over to the actual main event. Listen -- you have your priorities and I have mine. We listen and we don't (critically) judge! Upon arriving to my old stomping grounds, I immediately went for my usual: the hojicha Basque cheesecake. Some things don't need to be reinvented. It's still rich and creamy as ever, and it's basically the reason I still come back to this place. Since I don't get down here as often anymore, I figured I'd live life a little more frivolously and grab some items I haven't tried before, such as their prime beef curry, kurobuta miso sausage, honey toast, and a GF brownie. My plan for a sweet treat quickly evolved into a larger commitment of carbohydrates, but honestly, I'd like to think of these items as a gift from past me to future me. Brio Brio is also running a promo right now where you get a free cookie with purchase during certain hours. I just want to be fully transparent that I don't remember what those hours are or how long the promo is running, just that it's a weekday ordeal. I know, incredibly insufferable Yelp Elite reporting on my part. You'll simply just have to go in and ask them about it or look for the signage near the register, and then purchase that item you need to qualify for the deal to begin with. Consider my review a very detailed advertisement about a potentially complimentary cookie that idk how to explain the sourcing means for. Lmao, my bad, y'all. Either way, it was refreshing to visit again after all these years. If you're stopping by Brio Brio, you really need to get the hojicha Basque cheesecake. That's singlehandedly the menu item I'll keep coming back for, even when it means I'll be suffering in rush hour traffic on the drive back home.

You order your food yourself on an iPad at the register, and then the wait begins. It took about 20 minutes to receive a clam chowder bread bowl, even though the chowder was already prepared and the bread bowl was already made. Essentially, they just needed to put everything in a bag and hand it over. The food is good, but the service is far too slow for what you're getting. Delicious food, but not worth a 20-minute wait for something that should take just a few minutes.

Sherman, the owner, is absolute class, he's always welcoming, super friendly, and genuinely cares about the food he serves and the people coming through the door. You can tell he takes real pride in running the shop. As for the food? Absolutely incredible. Everything is always fresh, stacked generously, and packed with flavor. It literally never disappoints. I went to the Anaheim location a few time since I live near there, but they can't compete with this place. One time, I placed an order for pick up and I was an hour late due to helping someone with an errand. They gave me a ring and a courtesy reminder to ask if I was still coming or if I was ok, and they even offered to make me a new one! If that isn't service, I don't know what is. 11/10 would recommend.

Lots of outdoor seating with umbrellas, but everything was soaking for us, so we got our order to-go and ate elsewhere. Place your order at the register. Friendly service, but I'd say slow given there was no line of customers, and still took 15+ minutes. I also had to repeat the specifications of every single item, and our order was still wrong (I asked for white flour tortilla and said it twice, but was given wheat). We got a California burrito (avocado, spinach, bacon, potato, egg, cheese, salsa) and All-American platter (pancakes or toast, eggs, and choice of meat and potato). Add two small lattes and it totaled around $45 including tax and small tip. Good taste and quantity for the price, but disappointed by ordering process and incorrect order.

It's located in an office tower but since we were in late, we didn't have to fight any crowds. The counter person was very friendly and helped us with our order. It was warm outside so we initially grabbed a table on the patio but it was actually too warm! So we relocated in the small space inside and eagerly awaited for our food. Our bowls came out piping hot! The chicken teriyaki bowl was great. The abundant vegetables were cooked perfectly (tender but with a slight crunch) as was the chicken. The black sesame seeds added some good flavor and texture to the chicken and avocado. Delish! The salmon bowl was equally good. The peas and spinach added some nice texture to the orzo, which was very flavorful. The salmon was cooked good with a nice sear on the outside. The only bits that were left on our plates was some white rice and orzo. All veg and meat was totally consumed! I'd really love to come back again because it was memorable.

I'm normally a breakfast burrito guy, but their bagels are seriously good too. The food is always fresh and comes right out of the kitchen. They also have a surprisingly wide variety of menu options and a great selection of drinks, so there's plenty to choose from even if you're not in the mood for a bagel. For a small cafe in a busy corporate area, they have their system down really well. They get a lot of business, but ordering is organized, efficient, and usually pretty fast. The staff has always been friendly and helpful as well. Seating is limited, so grabbing a table can sometimes be tough, but if you can get one, it's a great little spot to sit down and enjoy your lunch. Highly recommend Sunrise Bagels.

They have a vast menu however, all I've ever ordered is the bagels. If you look around, you can see people are ordering all kinds of things from breakfast dishes to bagels and even lunch sandwiches. The crew is friendly and they bring your order to your table if you dine in. They have festive bagels like unicorn and holiday colors that are pretty much just a plain bagel with different colors, but it's fun for the kids. We tried their everything bagel and blueberry bagel. We had regular cream cheese on the everything bagel and strawberry cream cheese on the blueberry bagel and it was delicious. The only thing I would recommend is that they could've been a little more heavy-handed on the cream cheese. It was a little light compared to other places around town. I'm guessing I could've specified that when I made the order. We had a nice time, dining in and enjoying our food. There are two rooms to sit in and lots of seating.
