Located in a strip shopping center near the center of Lodi this place might seem a bit sketchy at first, but the food and service are very good. The ambiance isn't anything beyond a basic deli without any of the frills or specialty touches. It's just plain and a bit worn. Primarily known for Italian food this is where it apparently shines. The staff is very helpful and friendly. Navigating the menu was a little awkward as everything seems customized, which is fine but takes a bit to figure it out. We ordered a meatball sandwich to share along with a bag of chips and two drinks. We had ordered a #6 which we were charged for, but didn't really get the supposed complimentary sides. No big deal. The meatball sandwich really didn't figure into that equation anyway. The sandwich made from scratch and warmed nicely with oozing mozzarella cheese was simply delicious. What impressed me most was it was not made with a red tomato sauce but rather a brown sauce. That's something one sees a lot in the Italian influenced communities in and around New Orleans. What's nice is the brown sauce doesn't overwhelm the tastiness of the meatballs which were plump and quite delicious. Have a lot of napkins as it gets messy. Overall it was a good experience. You really have to know what you want and what to get before blindly walking in here. It does appear to be a chain with several locations in the surrounding area. read more

Why are all the locations? The employees are just so rude and like argumentative I don't understand. It So far, it's the one on Thorton and Hammer and then the one In Lodi I've never seen this in my entire life read more

Staff was nice. Taco Tuesday was delish! Cute little shop. When my boyfriend said taco Tuesday at an Italian place I said I gotta try. Glad we did. read more

The place is unassuming from the outside but the food is pretty solid! You order at the counter and take your food to-go or seat yourself at a table inside. Self-service soda drinks as well. The staff is pretty nice and the food is a great price! The focaccia bread is delicious and tastes fresh. Can either get it with or without butter. Seems like majority of people get takeout instead of eating there. Parking seemed a bit tight in the area. But we would definitely be back when we're in the area. read more

I always appreciate this location because it seems like the food is that much better than the others. I absolutely love the soups that are offered here. Infact one of my favorites is the stew. It tastes juice the stew I make at home. Of course the focaccia bread is amazing as well. The salads are great and always taste fresh as well. There's something for you that is great tasting. Whether it be salads, soups, pasta or their baked chicken. Everything tastes really great. Don't forget to try the brownies. read more

Such a good place for takeout family meals. Staff is sweet and the food is consistent! Their focaccia is so soft, I love it.

Great serving sizes available - food was good and super transitional. Gotta love coming back for that taste. Friendly service and quite efficient. Take out and dine in options read more

De Vinci's Delicatessen - Fresh Homemade Pasta - 3 meat raviolis and Pesto tortellini. Great side of fresh bread. Price $7 - Italian Near Me - Lodi, California

Just had the most wonderful service by your employee London. Friendly and worked really hard with my order! Highly recommend.

Upon moving to Lodi from Stockton recently, I've found it tough to discover a reliable spot to eat that's both affordable and offers great service. I used to visit the Stockton Davinci's locations of various places, but even as a regular, I never felt welcomed. The staff there just weren't very friendly. That all changed when I started coming to the Lodi location of Davinci's. I'm now a die-hard fan! The food is absolutely delicious, and the staff here is genuinely wonderful. One person who really stood out was a young blonde woman who helped me during my visit. She was an absolute gem, warm, attentive, and incredibly helpful. I can't recommend Davinci's in Lodi enough. 10/10 for the tasty food and the outstanding service. A huge thank you to that wonderful blonde staff member and the whole team for making every visit a delight! read more

I ordered on line via Door dash. The meue item was "boxed" raviolis, w/ tomato based sauce. My add ons were Garlic bread as one item . Devinciis texts me that " the ravioli" are frozen....???? I called and the young lady says " yes, our boxed ravioli is frozen"and doesn't include any sauce... really.. LMAO. . I told her read the advertisement on your menu...says nothing about being frozen. Also, they tell me they are out of garlic bread... really...5:00 in an Italian deli and ravioli is FROZEN,NO SAUCE,NO GARLIC BREAD?? NOW, I have to try to get a refund on my 35.00 order from Door dash ( who were doing their job)..., what a poor example of a deli....poor / mis leading menu and poor customer service. read more

Great raviolis, spaghetti, chicken and lasagna. Fast service for take out. There are some tables inside if you'd rather eat there. Lots of light coming into the place from outside. Not too loud inside. Nice servers. read more

When you provide a service and mess the order up significantly, I would recommend reaching out to that customer and offer a reasonable compensation for the error. When I spent almost $1,000 on food, I was expecting it to be correct. I was very disappointed. read more

I've been to this local spot in our town of a plenty of times, and while the restaurant has a cute style and the food selection is great, one employee is an absolute disaster. I don't know her name but she's always here and has blonde hair. Her fake tone and constant eye rolls are infuriating. She helps people out of order, even after i'd been in line for 10 minutes, which is not only utterly nonsensical but also off-putting and rude . The vibe's as depressing as a bad horror movie, and her attitude drives customers away. Fix the employee issue, and this could be gem. read more

I want to love this place, but it's far too inconsistent. Yesterday my $21.03 salad did not have the artichoke hearts, olives, or mushrooms I had ordered with it. The prior couple of times the meat and cheese was very skimpy, and the time before that they didn't include the beans. They had asked if we wanted the beans, we said yes, and alas no beans. When you are paying better than $20 for a salad it needs to be right. I called asked for a main office phone number and was refused. Prior on a few occasions when I've ordered a quart of green beans, I've been given a quart container that is about 2/3 full. In very disappointed in how this location is being managed. I've been to at least two other locations and have never had these issues. I recommend checking your order before leaving. I hope they can improve. read more

De Vinci's Delicatessen - Chef Salad, sadly they forgot the extra toppings. Chef Salad Salad add on Items - Italian Near Me - Lodi, California

Fast service, easy to order, good food and seriously addicting best foccacia bread anywhere!!

This is the best Da Vinci's location. Great food, good service and clean, unlike the Stockton locations.

I just wanted to pick up something quick to go so I decided on a green salad. They were very quick to take my order. Their generous salad comes with a lettuce blend and your choice of homemade dressing. I ended up picking the Italian, which was heavy on the vinegar. I do enjoy the tartness of vinegar, but for those who do not, I would steer clear of the Italian dressing. They also give you an option to add garbanzo and kidney beans which added some protein and their homemade croutons. Although the croutons added texture and were seasoned well, they were a little rich in either butter or oil. Overall I was pleased with my healthy yet delicious choice. read more

Lodi store has unfortunately changed. Been eating at da vinchis since we built the ravioli factory in Linden. The lodi store quality is nowhere near the same as it was 1-2 years . Im having to drive to stockton now to get decent food. Meatballs are burnt, Alfredo sucks and chunky or it's runny. All around crappy chef read more

The sandwiches are delicious! We ordered 2; a roast beef, ham, turkey w/ provolone & tri tip sandwich both on a baked Dutch Crunch rolls, their lasagna & ravioli is also delicious too ! They don't disappoint ! read more

Great atmosphere it look like it's going to be great.. bread is fresh but the skimp on the most important part the MEAT . They hardly put any meat the they pile high with shredded lettuce to make it look big. I ordered the pastrami on rye bread with Xtra meat and still almost no meat at all. And very expensive. Very disappointed . I come from So Cal where almost any deli you see puts 5 times more meat on a pastrami than this place . So my review is over priced for a mostly lettuce sandwich read more

Stopped in for lunch today.(2/8/23) There was only 1 lady there it got SUPER busy after I showed up. She did a fantastic job for it only being her. I ordered 2 chefs salads: Everything was delicious and fresh!! My MIL both had ranch it was very delicious! The meat had great flavor, which I myself don't like lunch meat in salads or beans but this was BIG exception! I ordered my daughter a small ravioli. (Literally drooling now writing this) that was very, very good also. My MIL has been going here since the 90's or so. We will definitely be back! Thank you! read more

My favorite is the raviolis made fresh every day. Unbelievable. I've been to multiple of their locations always the same 100% approve.

Such delicious raviolis. I haven't really tried the other pastas. This place is an excuse for not cooking.

After so many years, I decided to stop by to grab lunch (4/8/23) No greeting, waited a few minutes til a young lady took my order. I don't know what the vibe was, but she seemed rushed, unpleasant, no smile and answered the phone in the middle of preparing my order. Ambiance: slow, not busy and calm. My order: Combo #1, (ravioli) to go. read more

Been a customer for years at their hammer lane location and since we have moved to Lodi, this place is much closer to home so I went and bought our favorite focaccia bread at around 6:30pm on this Friday night. To make my story short, this is the saltiest bread I have ever tasted in my life!!!! I run a restaurant in the bay and we make sre we serve the best quality of food to our customers! This shiet is not even edible...too MUCH SALT or someone spilled salt on it and never wiped it off!!! Wtf workers, don't serve something to your customers you won't eat! read more

I remember when this business was a thriving, quality, bustling place with lines out the door. Not today. The pastas were doughy and undercooked. The pasta sauce was watery and tasteless. The focaccia was dry, dead, and pathetic with no salt or olive oil. I realize that these aren't the original owners, but the food being made today is nothing like when they took over the business. It's time for some quality control. You'd be better served by opening a can of chef boyardee. How disappointing! This is not Italian food! The only reason I gave it any stars at all was the service. Thank you ladies. Your presence is the singular redeeming quality of that establishment. read more

They have a note on the door that says something like "the world is short staffed, be kind to those who showed up" It would be easier if those who showed up had half an ounce of common sense. I came in today. 3 employees were too busy in their conversation to even acknowledge me. So I guess I'll just stand there awkwardly until they're done talking. One of them finally decides she should help me. Asks what I want to order. I ordered a quart of spaghetti. She filled the container about halfway and there's no more. Girl tells me she'll run to the back and get more. Comes out a few minutes later and puts my container into a bag. I think it's all good. Order a few more things. Pay and head out. In my car, I decided to look at the pasta. She didn't add more pasta. She just chose to give me about half a quart of their leftover, greasy sauce. I mean be honest. Say "we only have half a quart" or "would you like half a a quart of something else?" Instead of giving me sloppy, greasy, nasty leftover sauce. read more

De Vinci's Delicatessen - Is this a quart of pasta or a half quart with a bunch of greasy sauce because they ran out? - Italian Near Me - Lodi, California

Good Morning, So let me start out with [which I rarely do] this place survived the "Pandemic" which was huge. I see people coming into this place, always in a hurry. This is not typical, [we need to slow down "people"] Yes they sometimes short staffed. It's hard to fine "Anyone" who want to work [ how pathetic is that?] They are as far as I'm concerned "Very Friendly". The food is good, heck they even have food from the previous day for sale. Ma other establishments through they're food away. This place allows, other less fortunate people to purchase food @ a bargain, How cool is that? Their Focaccia bread is so, so fresh, an good, heck even the traditional spaghetti, an lasagna, is good. So if you're in a hurry, don't come here, but with a little bit of caring cuisine, please ENJOY. read more

Tonight I went to order 2 quarts of traditional pesto with penne noodles and other pasta. The girl said the cooks were on break and it will be a little bit. After over a half an hour waiting for my food she came over and said that all of the cooks were delivering food and won't be back for an hour!!! She lied to me!!!! I will never go back again!! The always cooked my food good. read more

I'm writing this review because I'm a long time De Vincis patron. Their raviolis in red sauce, buttered focaccia and basic Italian salad are staples and whenever I need comfort food, you know I'm getting take out for dinner: the stroganoff, the fettuccine alfredo...Yum! The only reason this didn't get five stars is because I had a super disappointing chef's salad yesterday. The meat had a bunch of gristle in it and it was lunch meat! Please get rid of this item from your menu. Your regular Italian Salad is 10x better. read more

Usually a great place for a quick meal, but today I walked out because none of the employees were wearing masks. Needless to say, neither were a few customers waiting in line with no social distancing. Perhaps if they enforced a mask policy, they wouldn't be so short staffed. read more

I stopped in for the first time ever today. It's a dreary, depressing day- but this is a cute little place! The people are friendly and were helpful in helping pick a meal. This is comfort food today! I order ravioli, pesto tortellini, bread and salad. The sauce isn't overpowering and the amount of food is insane lol. I guess I ordered too big . All in all a great little place with comfort food- and I didn't have to cook! read more

For the price you cannot beat this place when it comes to Italian food. We use them at least once a month for large and small dinners great customer service and quality. Been coming here for years and will continue to do so. read more

Gross. Flavorless. My pesto was gray and the pasta was undercooked. After eating it I don't feel great either lol.

We frequent this establishment on a regular basis for some pasta and the chef's salad. We went today a purchased 2 chef's salads and we were extremely disappointed when we got home. The salads were at least 1/3 smaller than normal with no cheese and just a small amount of turkey and ham. I basically got a Styrofoam container with some lettuce in it. We will not be back. read more

March 22,2018 I specifically put a request for 2 orders of number 10, got there 30min later to pick up my order and when I get to my work to look at the order they didn't fulfill my order correctly! She even read the order back to me at the end of the call. Turns out they filled it with 2 orders of #9. So when I called back to correct my order with the number 10 she said,"Well I CANT just give you the chicken. You have to pay for it!" Well duuuh but you messed up my order so why can't you just admit you messed up and GIVE ME THE CHICKEN! Then she charged me for plates $2.50 for 10 plates! They are foam plates! Nothing fancy! So at the end she wanted to charge me full price for the chicken and didn't apologize. Horrible customer service. The pesto wasn't even that good either. read more

(06/29/17) Idk if we caught them at a bad time but this location was bad. Raviolis didn't taste like usual. Maybe they'd been sitting too long? Idk. Cleanliness was just plain terrible. The only table open (most tables had the chairs up 40 min prior to closing) was filthy with food on the floor and a used napkin on the table. Also the floor looked like it hadn't been mopped for over a week. If i stepped in here again and the place looked like that again I will just take my business elsewhere. read more

At one time this was the ONLY place to go for Italian food in Lodi, but something's changed. On my last two visits the marinara sauce was CONTAMINATED with Avocado. A non-issue for most bipeds, but I have a potentially fatal avocado allergy. Shame on DeVinci's for failing to disclose they changed their recipe. Fortunately tonight I caught the problem after one bite as my cheeks immediately got puffy, and my airway started to close so I was able to avoid an expensive trip to ER. Or a funeral, which is at least as expensive. read more
