    Mmmmmmmm dessert!!!!! AND non-dairy options too
    Moana C.

    Had a hankering for a sandwich and decided to try this place out and I'm glad I did. Goddess Venus was working behind the counter and helped me decide between a hot pastrami or a Reuben, I ended up with a very tasty hot pastrami. I also liked that they offered a variety of exotic chips as I'm always on the look out for something different. I did however, skip on the squid flavored chips and went with BBQ - don't judge me - I also liked the gelato dessert offerings. The parking was adequate and the eating area was large, well lit, and inviting. I also got to speak with the owner himself.

    Clean and plenty of seating. They have a ton of chip and drink options, as well as potato and macaroni salad. Gentleman working was extremely kind and helpful. I chose to build my own and it was amazing! Im a sandwich lover and this was a delicious great priced sammy. My daughter got the exact sandwich I did and she loved it as well. They were good sized too, I ate half and had to the other half for later. I'm so excited I found this place so close to home.

    This was my first time to visit Deli Belly. I'm from New York and a love a good deli sandwich. I ordered the New York ham and Swiss on rye and I was not disappointed! They have a nice selection of rolls and bread. The rye bread was soft and fresh. They use Boar's head meat, so of course the meat was great. I usually only eat 1/2 a sandwich, but it was so tasty that I kept going for "just one more bite". So good. They carry Dirty brand potato chips and had my favorite, Maui onion. They carry bottles drinks as well as fountain drinks. There's a good selection to choose from. You can dine inside or out. I chose the inside. The deli was clean and organized. There are big windows that let in a lot of sunlight. Justine made my food. She was friendly. I enjoy good service! I'll be back!

    Chipotle So Gouda Sandwich
    Martin G.

    Service: was fine and attentive Food: the sandwich it self was filling. I got a chipotle Gouda sandwich one of their selections, it comes with chipotle Gouda and chipotle chicken and chipotle mayo which where the main taste of the sandwich not so much the mayo. It also has avocado and pepperoni but I did not notice them much. It could use extra avocado as only one of my half's had a decent portion the other side had a smear of avocado. Ambiance: the space it self is very open and clean with music playing. Relax setting to eat a sandwich

    I was looking for a new deli in the area and found Deli Belly; Thankful!My sandwich was amazing. The bread was soft. The sandwich was perfect & was delicious! The service; the two girls, were friendly, both with smiles & both very helpful since it was my first time at the Deli. The whole deli was, big clean lots of places to sit, inside & out! There's a variety of desserts, drinks, chips and gelato bars. Definitely can't wait to go back again.

    The Frankie on sourdough no mayo.

    I was pretty underwhelmed with my sandwich. It was my first time visiting and I wasn't familiar with the menu. One thing that really didn't help was the very tall counter that made communicating with the employees more difficult. My wife, who is, let's say... not tall, had an even more difficult time and basically I had to play telephone between her and the employee to communicate her order. I got the Frankie and was asked what kind of bread I wanted. I didn't really know what kinds of breads they offer and expressed that to the employee and they basically looked back at me like "git gud at ordering" so I picked sourdough because as I frantically searched for the information on their menu board that's the first thing I saw. Later I read the menu description and it says it comes on a sub roll and I think that would have really made the sandwich better. Overall it was a bit on the bland side. I did have them hold the mayo so maybe I should have asked for extra Italian dressing, but with the sourdough bread that might have made things really soggy. I don't live in the area so unlikely that I'll get a chance to try them again. There were three places right in that area that we were considering eating at and I feel like we would have been happier getting Pho or Greek nearby.

    This shop looks small from the outside, but they're quite spacious indoors! They have lots of seating, and large fridges full of cold drinks. There's also a HUGE display of chips at the front counter. The staff I met today were a bit shy/ quiet, but really quick. They recommended the white loaf with the spicy Italian sandwich ingredients. I really enjoyed my food! My sandwich had a great balance of pepperoni, salami, lettuce, beefsteak tomatoes, jalapeños, mayo, and spicy mustard. The French loaf tasted really fresh as well. Toasting it was a good choice for sure!

    Spicy Pastrami Sandwich
    Kyle V.

    This is an above average sandwich shop. Not the best and there are others in San Diego I would go to first. However, this place does make a good sandwich. It's a no frills place and they have great options for toppings with a great chipotle mayo sauce. I got the chipotle sandwich in a spinach wrap and it was loaded with meat. There really is no ambiance so this is a grab and go type place. No service to be amazed by because even the employees treat this as a grab and go place; get your food and they are in to the next customer.

    Deli Belly is slowly making its way farther west in East County with this new outpost in La Mesa. They occupy a corner suite in a strip mall off Parkway Drive where parking was plentiful in the lot. The inside had a lot of empty space presumably due to the chairs and tables being put away because of no indoor dining allowed. Boar's Head meats and cheeses were featured ingredients for their sandwiches. The menu had about 25 cold and hot signature sandwiches priced at $9.95 each. I chose The FA which contained top round corned beef and pastrami along with cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, and 1000 island dressing on an onion roll. The sandwich was neatly assembled and tightly wrapped in wax paper. The meats were of high quality and the dressing complemented all of the other ingredients nicely. The worker was pleasant and patient while I took the time to scan over the menu board. For price and quality, I gave Deli Belly a four star rating.

    This is Deli Belly's third location. I've been to the location in El Cajon several times with good results. This time around I thought everything was just okay. I had the Firefighter which came with turkey, roast beef, and bacon on a squaw roll. I asked for deli mustard to be added to the sandwich but they did barely put some on the sandwich. Although the sandwich was tasty, I thought the sandwich could of used more roast beef and turkey. Given the ratio of the thick bread, I could not get a good taste of the beef and turkey. Also, the bread was a little on the try side. Everything else was fine, the lettuce and tomatoes were fresh, but one layer of Provolone cheese is just not going to cut it. I want to taste it! The place is nice and clean and they offer a small amount of outside seating.

    Pretty good sandwiches at very good prices. A nice surprise is that sandwiches are built FAST. You won't be waiting for 20 minutes as you do at Cheers Deli up on Navajo. Speaking of Cheers Deli I would say Deli Belly slots itself in the middle between Submarina on the lower end, and Cheers on the higher end. Freshness is very much there, but quality leans to standard. It's consistent and of nice quality but it's not too much different than something you could make at home since they're using Boar's head products. Their bread however is spongy, airy, and delicious. Prices are super reasonable. An 8.5 inch classic sub, a bag of chips, and a soda will run you $13.

    Chips and counter where the magic happens!!
    Marco D.

    This place is a gem! I probably have had most of the sandwich and wraps in this place. So far, no issues whatsoever. Great customer service delicious food. The portion leaves you super full after the meal. Heck! You might have to take them home...but you should eat it the same day. It will get soggy!! Not their fault but yours :) Good music, clean and very breezy. You wont be sweatin. My overall score for this place is 5/5. This place deserves much more. Thank you Deli Belly.

    An extremely lame sandwich.
    Anthony B.

    I dont normally write reviews like this... But this one truly bugged me. This is is hand down the lamest cold sandwich I've ever bought. There is a single layer of every meat, and it is all sliced extremely thin. Every veggie added is sprinkled on in extremely sparing amounts. The bread is massive, has a stale texture, and has an odd flavor. It is almost exactly like the bread on a 4 dollar sub from 711. The price of the sandwich was astronomical for the lame sandwich they provided.

    The sandwich was good but the prices are quite high for quite small sandwiches. They also skimped with the toppings in my opinion.

They were running two back-to-school sandwich specials with one for $10.99 and another for $16.99. Personally, almost $17-$20 for a sandwich didn't really feel like much of a special. The service was definitely the highlight of my visit. The cashier was incredibly friendly, offered great recommendations, and the woman working behind the deli counter was just as welcoming. I ordered the: *Jerk Turkey Sandwich: you can choose from white, wheat, sourdough, a roll, or an onion roll for an additional $3. I went with white bread. I was expecting more of a deli-style hoagie or Subway-style sandwich, but it ended up being served on two slices of sandwich bread. It tasted good, but it honestly reminded me of something I could easily make at home. There just wasn't much of a wow factor. The sandwich came with pickle spears and your choice of macaroni salad, potato salad, or another deli side. The side portion was fairly small, a couple of bites worth, but the macaroni salad was great. My total came to nearly $15, which felt pretty expensive for a sandwich on sliced bread and a small side. While I really appreciated the friendly service and enjoyed the food, I didn't think it offered enough value for the price. Overall, it was a decent lunch, but not memorable enough to make me want to return.

    Sandwiches were so good! Will definitely be back. The workers were all very nice as well.read more
