From start to finish I called and spoke to KARMA and she helped me and was so kind and efficient you can tell she really loves what she does. Wow wow wow i'm at a loss for words. I literally called this morning for a last-minute order my pregnant sister wanted to make all her food for her baby shower and she's stressed out this morning and I said you know what I'm going to call old world and see if they can do it and they were able to make me 18 quarts of macaroni salad last minute and they did it with a smile !! If you we're thinking of ordering food for your party from here, please do it and all their food is always fresh and so delicious. I'm so thankful. Thank you again KARMA read more

Grabbed the Italian Grinder. It was decent in terms of taste, but too pricey for what I got. Sandwich is small and they aren't very generous with the meats. Staff was polite and they are located in a plaza with plenty of parking for convenience. I probably won't come back due to what felt like an inconsistency with the pricing and quantity/quality. I would pay 10 dollars max for what I received, not $17. I don't think the problem with the sandwich was the quality of the meat when I referred to quality I meant more in the care it takes to assemble and produce a balanced bite. When I bit into the sandwich, it tasted more like a salad than a sub. The proportions were off. They also have pasta and pizza so maybe those are better choices to check out on your visit. read more

D’Onza's Old World Deli - Very little meat in the grinder. Too pricey for what you get imo. ~$17 - Delis Near Me - Upland, California

Love this place!! You can't go wrong with any option on the menu. It's ALL good! My mom loved their broasted chicken and potatoes. They are amazing. My son loves the spaghetti with a meatball add on. Seems pricy for $4+ but it's a good size. The bread is AMAZING! All sandwiches are fantastic. Today I ordered a steak sandwich. It's very clean and spacious. Plenty of seating even when they are busy. Some items take longer to make like the lasagna, so be patient. It is worth it! read more

6/26/26 D'Onza's Old World Deli Upland, CA...Stopped by here for the 1st time with my great friend Nat of over 25 years. What a pleasant surprise! I should have come here sooner!

Italian deli with a classic vibe to it. It's family owned and operated and is located in a strip mall in Upland. It's a classic deli in that it has a good menu of different sandwiches along with prepared foods (and it seems like one of their specialties here is 'broasted chicken'. I came in during a late afternoon one day and was unsure if I wanted a sandwich, the chicken, or one of their prepared dishes. The folks here are very, very friendly. You can see that they have real pride in their place and the food. I think I met the owner and he was just as friendly as can be. He was telling me about the usual favorites and the meatball sandwich sounded really good. The meatball sandwich was a good size and it was very very delicious. For sure did not disappoint. I really wanna come back and try their chicken or even just grab stuff from the deli counter. This place is a gem. read more

Definitely one of the best hole in a wall spot I ever been :) This place reminds me of being in New York.. every vibe is Brooklyn all over.. the decorations and even the servers itself is NYC. The moment when I walked in with my dad doesn't feel like I'm in the IE. Their service is top notch cause they accommodate us through out our lunch. I ordered their Brooklyn Bridge Grinder, which is a classic Italian sub with their own twist.. Mann that was so good. I'm actually craving it right now while reviewing this lol. When I bite into it.. super hearty and pack of flavors from its vinaigrette sauce. My dad ordered their famous fried chicken.. I tasted it and damn no wonder it's famous. Overall, definitely a food spot to be whenever I visit Upland. read more

This place is so delicious! A staple at our house. They are also very accommodating and amazing staff. My wife was pregnant at the time and couldn't have cold deli meats so I asked if they could fry someone the cold meat and without hesitation they helped me out. They are the absolute best! I love the ambiance in there it reminds me of Italy with all the amazing selection of wines. A must try if you are in Upland! read more

Wow! The kind of place where you have it for the first time and just what excited because there's a new go to Italian sub that meets your needs. I'm a huge grinder fan. My favorite in the LA area is Baycities.. if you know you know.. with that said, the Brooklyn Bridge grinder is the next best thing I've ran into. We visit this area often so I look forward to having this many more times. The menu and all the foods along with the pastries look great. My wife ordered the eggplant sub and she liked it more than the one at Baycities. Staff was friendly and the place is a clean little gem with delicious smells that make it very inviting. read more

I have to say, all the goods I've tried here have been really good. As far as food, I've had a sandwich here before and it was also good, but it wasn't anything too extraordinary. Solid food and even better sweets. I also want to shout out Jason, he is the man ! read more

Me and my son love this place ! All the soups are fresh and delicious. The staff is always very friendly and help me with my tray.

The pastrami tasted like it came straight from the old world but with fresh, modern flavors. It was sliced incredibly thin and paired perfectly with the melted cheese. The service was professional, warm, and very welcoming. We're already planning to come back to try even more. We also tried the chili, which was loaded with rich, robust flavors. Thank you -- we'll definitely be returning! read more

D’Onza's Old World Deli - Pastrami Hot Sandwich - Delis Near Me - Upland, California

Great old school Italian Deli. Great meats I got Pastrami, Corned beef and rare roast beef to go and a pastrami sandwich there. The bread and rolls were exceptional. Nice friendly people working there. I'll be back. read more

I've been coming to this deli since I was a child and their food has remained excellent over the decades. Monday I took my husband here for lunch. We ordered the Brooklyn Bridge Grinder sub and the Veggie sub, which did not disappoint. For sides, we got potato salad and pasta salad. Those were delicious as well. I really enjoy the food here and will continue to patronize this business. read more

.., my second round with Donza's and it was better than the first. I had chosen the pastrami sandwich on my first visit and the flavors did not disappoint, but for the size and price I was. My work colleague is obsessed with their ham & Swiss and cannot stop talking about it! So I finally came back and he was right lol. Their Ham & Swiss is definitely larger than their pastrami, not significantly but for the price which was around $13 I believe, I'd def come back for it. The bread was firm but giving, ham was freshly sliced and savory, the Swiss was a nice touch, the thinly sliced pickles were definitely the cherry on top of this beautiful deli morsel of goodness. I can still taste the flavors in my mouth and it makes me debate on coming back sooner lol, thank you Donza's! read more

I've been to this place before, but the location in West Covina. I remembered them having really good sandwiches. Never tried the soup though. This place is actually really big inside. Love the way it's decorated kind of like old Timey Italian. The service here is really good. The people are friendly and very helpful. The girl at the counter was super sweet and gave me the top two soups to choose from. I ordered the 16 ounce cup of soup and half sandwich. I decided on a turkey sandwich. It's always my go to and perfect with a cup of soup. I asked the girl what were her most popular soups, and she suggested the vegetable beef barley so I ordered it! My husband ordered the clam chowder and a hot pastrami for his meal. The turkey sandwich was delicious but it could have came with a little more meat. The soup though.... Great choice it was fire!!! Huge chunks of beef, and soft flavorful veggies! Wow so glad I took her advice! The broth was so yummy and packed with flavor. The pastrami was really good as well they did pack that one with meat. The clam chowder was not good. My husband had to change it for the chicken and rice. The chicken and rice was good as well not as good as the vegetable beef but had loads of chicken chicks and rice and veggies. I will definitely be back to try their roasted chicken as that's all I could smell while I was there and it smelled divine! Thanks for your hospitality old world deli! read more

D’Onza's Old World Deli - Roast Beef Hot Sandwich with Au Jus , Sicilian style pizza slice, and a small pasta salad . - Delis Near Me - Upland, California

Haven't been here in the recent months but my husband pointed out today that Donza's was added to the business name while we were eating our food. He guessed it was under new management. The tuna sandwich I had, I didn't finish, the pickles in there were good but the tuna salad itself was okay. The raspberry drop cookies are still there and I grabbed a few along with the chocolate drops but didn't eat them yet. My husband said his brooklyn bridge sandwich didn't taste the same as before and his chilli was more soupy. The potato salad seems to be the same but the mac salad doesn't have the same seasoning as this used to one of my favorites. I hope the broasted chicken hasn't changed, may come back to confirm. read more

I was intrigued when I was yelping around and I saw a name change from Old World Deli to Donza's Old World Deli. I had to check it out for myself to see what changed. Per staff I heard that the business has been recently acquired. But fans rest assured, it has been taken over by close friends of the original owners so they have kept a lot of the original vision and all of their recipes, with some minor modern touches like having an Instagram. The Old World Deli is my beloved home town Italian deli. I come here any time I need some Soup ($5.50), Eggplant Parmegiana ($18.25), or Lasagna ($18.25) and always always adding the garlic bread no matter what I'm ordering. I always have to get extra garlic bread because my dad loves that garlic bread too. Pricing has increased throughout the years, but I don't mind paying the price to support a local mom and pop shop. Until next time Old World Deli! read more

Service is great and their turkey sandwhich was good. A little on the pricey side for a sandwhich shop but other than that decent. Clean and ample tables for you to eat in. Macaroni salad was good but can't say it was my favorite of all time. I'd be back for a sandwhich. read more

I was excited to check out this place with all the reviews I heard about it. Being from New York, very skeptical about delis in California. Unfortunately, when I walked in there was nothing on the shelves that look good and the deli counter was maybe on par with stater Brothers as far as salads go. The icing on the cake was when I ordered an eggplant Parmesan sandwich and when I got home, it was egg salad. The guy behind the counter baby should've realized that the bread it was served on wasn't a roll that should've gave him the clue. I'll stick with Claros way better choices, and way better deli meats. read more

Our go to chicken if we are craving for fried chicken. Their rib eye sandwich is very good to

Picked up two sandwiches for our road trip. We got the ribeye sandwich and the old world deli club. Ribeye sandwich - this was my favorite of the two. The ribeye was perfectly cooked, thin enough to chew and eat in a sandwich, and stuffed with tomato and lettuce and dressed with a nice horse radishy sauce. The bread was crispy and good. Old world deli club - this was packed with deli meat. It was more of a classic sandwich. The white bread was a delicious guilty pleasure. This sandwich will get soggy easily if you don't consume it quickly. Lots of space to dine inside and very clean. Very easy for grab and go for the road. read more

It's not the worst, but it's not the best either. It used to be a regular stop for me, but the quality and pricing have changed. I feel like I'm getting less quality for more money now. This might be a reflection of the current economy, but I was very disappointed during my last visit. The staff is friendly, and the place is clean, but I just don't think it's worth the price. Even the larger sizes of soup or chili aren't worth the expense. I don't think I will be returning any time soon. read more

Would give them 5 because the food is good but, the prices are extremely high. Soup is 4.95 and they want another dollar for cheese or anything extra. Spent $50.00 and they still don't even think to give us a side of cheese for the kids soup or chili. Kind of crazy . Claro's is a way better option. read more

New to the area... we fancy the "Old World Delicatessen" In Covina so I had high expectations. One word, disappointed. $77 got my family 4 sandwiches, 2 Ham & Swiss and 2 Brooklyn Grinders combos with Brocolli pasta salad w/tri color noodles, 1 cup of chili. Per my ham and Swiss eaters, sandwiches were good but they prefer Jersey Mikes. My Brooklyn sandwich- my bread tastes like it was from the old world because the bread was so hard to bite through. The cup of chili was good. The pasta tastes like it expired and we threw it away- waste of money! The stars are for the Sweet bread - chocolate chip pumpkin from the Old Town Bakery in Ontario and the 2 ham and Swiss sandwiches. This place is family friendly and nice inside though. Customer service is friendly. I'll drive to Covina for Old World Deli cravings read more
