DAD'S Sandwiches - Capitol Club Baja Bird . Soooo good - Sandwiches Near Me - Sacramento, California

An institution here in Sacramento. If you're just looking for a good sandwich, here it is. Beware, they do take a bit to prepare so order online if you don't want to wait. And take plenty of napkins because this is not a clean nor mobile food. My go-to for the last decade is the Hot Blonde. So much fun ordering that one. It is really delicious though. Perfectly cooked chicken with sauces, cucumbers, cheese, on delicious bread. There aren't many places to sit inside but the staff is hardworking and work hard in pushing out orders. Not much of a theme inside other than brewery-male man cave, haha. I'm not here for the vibes, just the sandwich please! read more

Food: The sandwiches at Dad's are a hefty lunch. I got an Angry Roadman. The sandwich was massive, and it had so much turkey. I do worry that the grilled onions and peppers were lost in the abundance of mayonnaise. Service: The service was quick and they walked the sandwich out to me during lunch time in less than 10min. During a rush and on a time crunch, Their system left no gaps in time. Ambiance: The casual outdoor patio was really comfortable with the nice weather. read more

We waited about 30 minutes for a cold sandwich and a grilled cheese, so if you're stopping in for a quick lunch during work, be prepared for a longer wait. The staff was friendly and courteous, which was appreciated. However, the restaurant and bathroom were not very clean during our visit. The food itself was excellent. The only item that missed the mark for me was the potato salad, it didn't taste like traditional potato salad and was more similar to hummus mixed with potatoes. One thing to note for families: the kids' grilled cheese does not come with fries or a drink, which was a little disappointing. Overall, the food was delicious, but the wait time and cleanliness issues took away from the experience. Items we got: Beach Bum Turkey, Bacon, Avocado, Cream Cheese, Dad Sauce, Spicy Mustard, lettuce, tomato, onion, green chilis on Classic Griller Grilled cheese. Jack and Cheddar on sourdough with a splash of Dad sauce. Potato Salad Red potatoes, eggs, carrots, onions, pickles, and peppers with secret seasonings and sauces. read more

Visited DAD's on a late Sunday afternoon for the first time and ordered the beach bum sandwich. You can easily find free street parking out front or within a short walking distance. There was a little line when I came but it moved quickly. The sandwich was fresh and tasty. Loved the outdoor seating, which can fill up fast on a busy day. read more

First time here, I ordered the Hot Blonde sandwich to split with my coworker. It was definitely enough for two people as it was packed with ingredients. It was so flavorful! I would order again but minus the cucumber. It kept throwing me for a loop when it would burst in my mouth. I was surprised that they didn't have a meal deal so you had to pay separately for chips and soda. Additionally, all the seating is outside so definitely a take and go in the Sacramento summer heat. read more

What a frickin' find! You have to step off of the R Street "commercial" block to find Dad's, but you will be glad you did. I just liked the fact that it is a fun muraled old house set up with a screened front door and a counter to order from. Place your order and grab a metal bar stool out front on the street (there is like a dozen or so) and sit at the narrow high bar with your fellow diners (they are all friendly) to chow down on your fantastic sandwiches and/or salads. We ordered the Kings Reuben and a Southside salad. Both of these were awesome! One of the best Reubens I have ever had outside of a specific Jewish Deli I love. Dad's is much closer to home. Their menu is quite extensive on the sandwiches both hot, grilled or cold. You gotta check them out! read more

Summer is definitely here and there is no better way to enjoy a sunny Saturday afternoon, than with a tasty sandwich! I ordered a make your own cold sandwich. It was on sourdough bread with mayo, yellow mustard, lettuce, provolone cheese and turkey. When I say they give you a lot of meat I'm not joking! They do not skimp on it at all. It was the perfect classic sandwich. My hubby ordered the capital club, and he said it did not disappoint. Of course I had to have a little taste. once again they did not hold back on the delicious meat and bacon. Bread is always soft and fluffy and the veggies are crisp and delicious. The place is small but inviting. Seats are limited inside but outside there is room to enjoy the Sacramento weather. Service is fast and friendly. They bring your food out to you. Dad's Sandwiches is a must try, and I repeat visit is mandatory. read more

This place is super well rated even though it's in a hidden area and I've been wanting to try it based on the pictures online I was really expecting a huge sandwich and for the price. I ordered the hot blonde with light hot sauce. It's a chicken, avocado, cucumber, and saucy sandwich. Overall, it was good but not do the expectations I had based on other reviews and pictures As you can see in the picture the bread was really thin and the sandwich overall wasn't all that big (think pbj size) read more

Great (big, tasty) sandwiches. Reasonably quick service. The inside is small, but there's plenty of seating outside. Fully endorse the Beach Bum and the Angry Roadman. Either sandwich would've likely been enough for both of us, but we still managed to demolish both. read more

What we had: Pastrami Mami Beautiful portion of meat with the usual trimmings served with soft fresh bread. The pastrami was on the salty side but not overpowering and may just be what other folks may enjoy. Sacto - Tritip Cheesteak Sandwich It came with a gravy cheese like sauce which I believe is a signature sauce for this establishment. My husband gave this sandwich a 4 out 5 for that reason. He enjoyed the tender steak and he found the bread soft. I didn't care for it much only because it was a messy bite lol - Yes, it was that cheesy. I can see this being a favorite for some. The place is cute with both indoor and outdoor seating. They were blasting reggae music when we arrived and that was all the welcome I needed lol. Staff were coo and, pleasant - it was an all male team and you can tell they were just vibing. Cute inside art on the wall and outdoor mural. Will definitely recommend this spot and will come back to try another sandwich! read more

Baja Bird from Dad's = instant favorite. Perfectly grilled chicken, It's the first sandwich I've had with chicken thigh -- and honestly, great choice. Juicy, super tender, way more flavor, avocado, crispy bacon, roasted chilis, all layered on that crunchy bread... every bite hits. That chipotle mayo amazing. Messy in the best way, super flavorful, and totally worth it -- washed it down with a Diet Coke because balance. Already planning my next visit. Excellent service. Of course busy around lunch, but to be expected. read more

Wanted to try them and thought I had time because Yelp says that they close at 6pm. They closed at 4:00 pm today.

Recently visited while midtown and my other suggested this spot! I went in not knowing what to get, and luckily the cashier recommended their pastrami. We order led one of their pastrami sandwiches to go and made it a meal. We thought their sandwich was delicious! Made fresh, hot upon arrival. The flavors were good. Portion was big enough for us to split to fancy our taste buds. Definitely will be back! read more

Dad's sandwiches- this place is great! You can either order online or in person! The shop is small and has great food! You can get a made to order sandwich or pick one of the menu!

I really like the patio! The potato salad is by far the best potato salad I've ever had in sac! read more

Simply the best sandwich in Sac! DAD's is a small sandwich shop on S Street, and their funky space has a cool vibe with a small outdoor patio. I've walked by many times and finally stopped by on a weekday for lunch. DAD's has a standard menu or the option to build-your-own hot or cold sandwich. If you're in the mood for something different, they also serve hot dogs! I wanted to go with one of their creations and opted for the Turnpike (cold). I ordered my sandwich without onions and mayo along with a small side of potato salad. Service brings your order to you, and I opened my sandwich to check that it was made correctly. We came just after the lunch rush, and I was happy to see everything came out just right. The guy who helped us at the counter let me know that they ran out of small sides, so they upgraded me to a large! I was impressed with the customer service and devoured the sandwich. The bread, thick layers of meat, and mustard made for the perfect bite! I'll be back soon and can't wait to explore the rest of the menu. read more

Tried out dads for lunch, only a couple blocks away so could be a regular in my lunch rotation. Got the Reuben, was really good pastrami, maybe a little too much sauce though. The sandwich was toasted well, and the flavor was great, but it was loaded with sauce and pickles. Next time I'd go 50% less on each then it'd be perfect. The wait is long during lunch time so I'd definitely recommend ordering ahead. Food: 4/5 Ambiance: 3/5 Service: 3.5/5 Marcels foodie score: 3.5/5 read more

Randomly found myself in the mood for a sandwich and matcha combo for brunch and since I haven't had the chance to sample too much of the sandwich scene in Sac, I had to do a lil bit of research to figure out the best nearby options. Tbh, I had initially settled on Juno's based on recs and reviews but it was unfortunately closed on Monday -- a happy accident which led me to discover DAD's, another local favorite. The storefront is a quaint little shop in Midtown along the R Street corridor, with eclectic/amusing decor and a menu that boasts a variety of West-Coast inspired deli sandwiches featuring plenty of avocado and arugula. I opted for the Hot Blonde chicken sandwich while my boyfriend got the Sacto Tri-tip Cheesesteak. Surprisingly, I enjoyed both almost equally (the Dirty Blonde won with only a slight edge over its opponent) despite not typically being a big fan of cheese steaks. As you can see from the dope cross-sections pictured, these sandwiches are PACKED with fresh and quality ingredients. My chicken sandwich was an explosion of flavor with the garlic aioli, brown mustard and hot sauce combo, while the cheese steak had the most delicious beer cheese with delicious peppery notes to complement the tri tip. Personally, my only qualm was that they are a little heavy-handed with the sauces, making these sandwiches a little wet... I'd probably ask for less sauce next time though I appreciated how well they combined together to enhance their respective meats. My bf also mentioned that he would've preferred chicken slices rather than chunks, which admittedly would have made the sandwich more cohesive (my half definitely fell apart towards the end). We stopped by the Mill a couple blocks away to pick up an accompanying matcha latte and enjoyed our meal nearby at McKinley Park. A thoroughly satisfying Monday brunch and I can't wait to come back (the Broadway Burnout and Beach Bum are next on my list to try). Stay tuned to see how this compares to Juno, the next stop on my sandwich escapades! :^) read more

Dad's Sandwiches is one of those simple, no-frills spots that just gets it right. The inside space is pretty small, so it can feel a little tight during busy hours, but they do have outdoor seating which makes it easy to hang out and enjoy your food when the weather's nice. The sandwiches were honestly so good -- fresh ingredients, great flavor, and perfectly put together without trying to be overly fancy. You can tell they care more about making a solid sandwich than anything else, and that's exactly why it works. What stood out just as much as the food was how nice everyone was. The staff felt genuinely friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. Best for: A casual lunch, quick bite, or anyone craving a really good sandwich in Sacramento. Definitely a spot I'll keep coming back to. read more

These sandwiches were really great. We got the sactown cheesesteak, which was very flavorful and would definitely recommend. We also got the Beach bum which was filling. It is a cold sandwich, and I was expecting it to be warm, so I would recommend it warmed up. Both sandwiches were reasonably priced and delicious. There's only street parking and the inside of the shop is very small. There's maybe it 1 maybe 2 tables, so not a great place to stay and eat the sandwiches. The staff was really nice and friendly. I definitely recommend this sandwich spot and I mostly likely will be back to try a different one. read more

I haven't been to Dad's Sandwiches since long before COVID, but I'm glad to see it's still here. It's a charming little spot that's the definition of a hole in the wall, and it's got a real vibe going inside. I ordered the Hot Blonde for takeout and it was ready within minutes. The ingredients tasted fresh, everything from the chicken to the aioli to the bread was super flavorful and definitely justified the price. Dollar for dollar, your money is better spent here than at a lot of corporatized sandwich spots and locally coveted deli counters... I won't name names. It was a delicious and hefty sandwich, and it is not always easy to find both. In hindsight, I should've gone for the tri tip that was calling my name--but I'll save it for a return trip. Happy to see they're still a super efficient operation, churning out great sandwiches. read more

My bf has been obsessed with these sandwiches lately and I was excited to try it. We got the Baja bird and the beach bum. Surprisingly long wait time for a sandwich. We went outside and hung out and this made the time fly. Baja bird- surprisingly pretty spicy. Very flavorful and right on the verge of being too salty. Super tasty though and I would get it again. Loved that it was toasted perfectly. Make sure to have a drink. Beach bum- I wasn't the biggest fan of the bread. The bread seemed dry and crumbly. My bf enjoyed it though. read more

Love Dad's! Good portions and selection of breads and meats...I particularly like their meatball sandwiches...yum!

Poorly assembled crap sandwich. My Beach Bum sandwich looked like it was slopped together & ingredients carelessly placed. Hella messy. Honestly, I can't say much about the service cuz I wasn't there but the sandwich is a 2/10. Perfect for someone with an unrefined palette or lack of tastebuds. Never had a turkey sandwich that tastes so bland. Would rather have gotten something else from another sandwich spot. Whoever DAD is needs to whoop them sandwich artist into shape cuz this was a hella sad sandwich. No shade, no hate, just disappointment. Glad everyone else had a good sandwich or great experience tho! Wishing the company well! read more

We were wanting a good deli sandwich on our way back from the denios flea market. Googled up locations and this spot popped up with decent star ratings. So we stopped in and tried it out. I like the vibe lol that has crawled up the side of the building over the years. Very very small establishment but already had 5 people enjoying their sandwiches outside in the seating area when we arrived. They have a pretty cool sized menu and options., Fountain drinks are not available so you will have can chooses to choose from. We picked our sandwiches, chips and drinks and had our meal outside S well. They brought our sandwiches out to us. The two gentlemen there working were nice and patient S it was out first visit here. I also noticed two orders were picked up by delivery drivers so it does seem as though they have phone Orders or online orders as a readily option.? Our sandwiches were good, notices some cool artwork displayed on the wall while we were waiting. Definitely different than your average other sandwich spots. You get more of the freshness in each bite and cool names to go with them., read more

YOWZA - what a sandwich shop - tons of pre-designed combos with cool names, and it's fine and dandy to get a plain ham'n'cheese with no fancy stuff (well, except for guac and cream cheese). Trust me, you want cream cheese on your ham sandwich, perhaps even more than a sliced cheese. I arrived maybe 30 minutes before closing and there was no wait. I chose the French roll, and will probably choose sliced sourdough next time. The sandwich innards were so thick and generous that it was a tough act to take a ladylike bite. Clearly this place is a favorite for a reason - GREAT sandwiches and really engaging staff. My sandwich artist was a hoot. Sorry no pix. I was starving and it was dark. Trust me, fat packed sammies. read more
