The best chicken curry salad I have ever had hands-down and I've had a lot. I think they put watercress in it, but I'm not sure. Just the right amount of sweet and savory. Texture was delectable and so tasty on the Acme sweet roll. I should have just eaten half of it, but I could not stop. Can't wait to have it again and I will take pictures next time.

I'm so glad I did because they did not disappoint. Everything I've had has been fresh, flavorful, and consistently delicious. In fact, I've already been back three times since my first visit, which says a lot! I also have to give a special shout out to the turtle chips. They are absolutely addictive and have quickly become one of my favorite things on the menu. If you're looking for a great sandwich spot in Oakland, I definitely recommend checking this place out.

Oh wow. This is a top shelf sandwich spot, with reliable deli classics and highly crafted…read moreinventions. The sandwiches are very well balanced. We ordered the Sisig Bolillo and Chicken Caesar Wrap. Both were relatively saucy -- the sisig with rendered pork fat and the wrap with Caesar dressing -- and the sauces layer in a great deal of flavor. Yet neither sandwich was overwhelmed by moisture, thanks to their breads. The lavash was a bit plain and, indeed, benefitted from the Caesar dressing, while the bolillo might have been delicious on its own as a crusty baguette. The crumb happily suspended whatever mayonnaise and fat melted into it. Pairing the deli's heaviest special with a lighter item made for a happy balance as well. The sheer volume of shaved pork calls for a fresh lettuce chaser.

They are best enjoyed within a few hours after buying them. The bread will get soggy if you let it sit overnight. We ended up eating them right there on the sidewalk today. If you are just buying bánh cuốn, those ready to buy rice roll with cured meats plates, or egg rolls, you can skip the line. That's what the counter guy told me. The left line is just for ordering sandwiches. Note, that little parking lot gets full. There's plenty of parking on the other side of International Blvd. by the liquor store.

The bread is always fresh and it's a hefty portion ( I always split my sandwich into two). It's generally a quick to go order spot but you might have to wait just a little bit ( under 10 minutes). My go to order is always number 13. Meatball and egg is my favorite but I've had a bunch of their other options and they're all solid. Right as you enter the store there are also a variety of drinks and sweet treats you can pick up as well. Tips: It's a clean and no frills takeout sandwich spot located right off of International but there's also a small parking lot behind the gated fence that you can park in. They take credit card but there's a 3% fee.

When I think of a sandwich that has the ability to make my mouth water just thinking of it, few…read morecome to mind, but what the sandwiches they make at Southie is definitely one of them. I've had their Spicy Hog, steak with mushroom, a few Cubans, but the one that I always come back to is "The Balls" sandwich. First off, this sandwich is massive, so be sure that you come here on an empty stomach. These beef meatballs are seasoned to perfection and bursting with flavor. The balls are covered in their red sauce with provolone and Grana Padano, which gives it that nutty and salty flavor that pairs extremely well with the meatballs and baguette. All the juices and cheese just get soaked up to perfection. The baguette bread they use is supplied by La Farine, which is just a few meters away from each other. Just putting out there that La Farine is hands down one of the best bakeries in Oakland, so it makes sense that this sandwich would be so dang good. I'll be honest that I'm not a big fan of the chips or those chips in general and could be fine with just the sandwich. If you are going to have any sandwich to eat here first, I would highly recommend you try "The Balls" because I promise you will not be disappointed. I will always say that the dozen or so times I've been here, the staff are always so friendly, and the atmosphere is very down to earth. The price of their sandwiches is in the $20 range, but the quality and portion make it totally worth it.

Don't come in solo expecting a side table.

Want a free sandwich?…read more Complete this puzzle and it's all yours! The pastrami sandwich here is sooooo good I actually ordered two of them. This is the first place in the world that had me eating rye. I hate rye bread, and was worried because there are no substitutions, but the sandwiches here were so good and the bread didn't taste like the traditional prison food hard rye bread. You changed me Krispy Joe's, and had me eating stuff I never would have. Also, drinking stuff I never would have. I bought their chai and lemonade, both were 5 stars, and they offered me their pickle juice electrolyte drink to try. I was skeptical at first, but again they made me a believer. I hate pickle juice and pickle flavored anything in general. Yet, they converted me once again when they offered me a sample of their pickle-aid. It tasted like a mild tasting plain Gatorade. If I were still training for a marathon, I would totally buy this! Back to their amazing sandwiches. They are made with such care, dusting every sandwich that's made to order with their secret spices while toasting the meat and bread. The slaw was fresh and herbaceous. Again, made with care and craftsmanship. I am rooting for this business to expand and take over Ike's Sandwiches. I believe in you Krispy Joe's, you have my vote!

Finally found a good pastrami sandwich to satisfy the craving. Krispy Joes is a small coffee shop…read morein Emeryville on San Pablo Ave. that also has some delish pastrami sandwiches. You might want a cup of joe afterwards, so you don't fall into a food coma. Loved the OG sandwiche w/ pastrami, melted Swiss, coleslaw and thousand island dressing. All of their sandwiches come Jr. size and I feel like I made the right call of upgrading to the Regular (4oz.) for more meat. Going to 4oz. I feel like was the standard size of what you'd expect in a pastrami sandwich: Would definetly recommend calling ahead or preserv online. I was a walk in and waited about 15-20 minutes. But I must say, they were busy pumping out online orders. There is limited seating in the coffee shop and not really a dine-in for a group larger than 3. Would definetly recommend if you're having one of those good ole pastrami cravings.
