This place never disappoints! Their hot pastrami sandwich's are the bomb, best we've ever had! Homemade potato salad is also great. My son thinks their tiaramisu is best and always wants it for his birthday. Great place, yummy stuff! read more

Good sandwiches since I was a kid. Staff, they could be less snooty it's a vibe you can feel it. Otherwise great place

Does the owner really not know how rude his employees are to costumers and other employees?! I witnessed a young lady storm out a couple days ago bawling her eyes out. After talking to her she apparently quit in the spot due to them always yelling at her for "taking to long of bathroom breaks" and not being fast enough when she was new. After she quit the "manager" said "about time?!" WHAT! I will never give those rude old ladies a penny. Didn't bother going in to order food after witnessing this. read more

One word! YUMMMY! Definitely worth every cent! Service is amazing and the workers are the nicest. read more

Had a gift certificate so wanted to try a few things on our first visit for lunch and dinner take out. Sandwiches were fresh and delicious. The hubby said he'd definitely go back. Trust me, that's high praise indeed! Got spaghetti and ravioli dinners, okay, average. Stick with the sandwiches and you can't go wrong. Fast, very friendly service. read more

Wow... if I close my eyes it reminds me of when my grandmother would make me a quick and flavorful sandwich, you order and it's made fresh right in front of you.... No... it's not the same as a National chain sandwich joint, it's made with freshly sliced Italian meats and on the 1st bite the number one ingredient it's simply LOVE, thank you for such a treat, will be coming back over and over..... read more

The best gem in Fallbrook. A superb sandwich. Friendly service and the best food. The lasagna is so delicious.

This place used to be better. The last couple of times I have been there my sandwiches were soggy, and the final straw was when I ordered spaghetti and meatballs and the pasta was mushy and tasted like it had been cooked in hose water. It really truly was awful. I do not know who is enjoying this pasta that the staff says is their best seller but no one that knows what actual authentic spaghetti with sauce should taste like. I have been going here for years, and the spaghetti incident was the last time I will likely ever buy anything at Dominick's until I start seeing some reviews that the place has improved. I hate this because I truly like to support small business, especially in my own community but lately this place is NOT it. Please do better! This place used to be good, it just isn't anymore. read more

Amazing! Big portions, fresh, family owned, old school, and delicious! A little pricey but you get what you pay for. My pastrami sandwich was flavorful and the bread fresh. My wife's capresi salad was stacked with fresh balls of mozzarella and seasoned well... we'll be back. read more

Seriously the best sandwiches in town. Been coming here since I was a kid and I still stop by whenever I crave a Dom's Sammy for the nostalgia. A sandwich with a bag of chips, a drink, and the caprese salad. Chef's kiss! read more

Fantastic sandwiches. Great proportions and the bread is fresh and soft. I recommend calling in your order before you arrive, as it reduces wait time for quicker service. read more

How does this place not have 5 stars?!?!? Their Italian sandwich on that delicious roll with all the fixings...ummmm, yes please. Do yourself a favor and try out this awesome little mom and pop place. You will be glad you did. I can't wait to go back. read more

Not joking, their good is damn good. Has an old school east coast hoagie feel. I always get the Italian, double meat sub, over the top good. read more

This seems kinda ridiculous to review Dominick's. Anyone that's been there knows the place is awesome. The sammiches are the best (the main reason I go there but the soups and other stuff are great too), the quality of the ingredients is top notch, the service is great, and it's a mom-and-pop business so you can feel good about supporting local businesses. They've got a small knick knack section with everything Italian: olives, olive oils, wines, breads, themed shirts, and a ton of other stuff. There's a pre-made meal section as well. I haven't tried it but I'm thinking that's going to happen next visit. I'm excited to try a few of the offerings. This is a must-stop if you're in Fallbrook. I'd grab a sammich before heading over to Fallbrook Brewery! read more

OMG!!! They saved me!!! The saddest thing for me during this lockdown has been the lack of being able to find flour! During a conversation this morning with a friend I found out that our very own Dominics Deli was selling 25lb sacks of flour! I called and was down there 15 minutes later. Now I have 3 loaves rising in the oven and I am a happy baker again! Who lnew what little things can bring so much joy these days! read more

Dominick's Delicatessen - Life is good! - Delis Near Me - Fallbrook, California

This was my first time trying this deli, I recently moved to Fallbrook and saw a raving post on this place so I've wanted to come for a while. I am Italian and I grew up in Chicago where Italian delis are plentiful so I literally grew up on this stuff. I've also been to several of them in New York and New Jersey, I was really hopeful that this would be great. I am very picky when it comes to Italian food as I grew up with very authentic Italian cuisine. I ordered the Italian Combination Sandwich, which was good but not great and I'll tell you what the difference was between good and great on this sandwich, it's literally all in the bread. This is absolutely NOT the right bread for an Italian sandwich. The proper bread to use would have been an Italian roll, a crispy crust but soft inside. Dominick's uses a soft French bread which is not a bad bread, just not right for an Italian sandwich and bread is a big deal when it comes to authenticity. If it had the right bread it would have been so much better and the review likely would have been 5 stars. They could easily toss the French bread in the oven to firm up the crust and it would improve it. I'm not saying I wouldn't return, I just now know what to expect, if it had the right bread I'd likely be back often as the rest was good. Still a better choice then the chains. read more

If you want to eat at one of the best sub sandwich places around, choose Dominick's. Go where locals go. All the ingredients are fresh and made to order. Even the small sandwich is enough to fill up the average person. If you eat large, go large! Either way, you can't go wrong here. read more

Dominick's Delicatessen - #4 Italian Sub - Delis Near Me - Fallbrook, California

Well that stinks! Friday family dinner night and we ordered Dominicks, only to be very disappointed. First off, nobody at the counter, we had to wait for someone to come out from behind the kitchen after several minutes. Secondly, after getting home, two items were missing from my order (a side salad and macaroni salad). Third, the food was poorly prepared. Pasta was way over cooked and extremely watery with a soggy piece of burnt garlic toast, sausage sandwich had enough green peppers for a half dozen sandwiches, ham sandwich had ONE pepperoccini, even though we asked for extra. Not sure if it's a new crew but we definitely did not get what we paid for. We will not be ordering Dominicks for a while. Sadly, we try to support local but that's the third eatery we have scratched off our list. read more

I'm so bummed.. I love Dominick's and tonight the girl there failed ! It was honestly such a mission for me to get there tonight and that was all my husband sons and I wanted! I had a crying baby an over tired 2 year old but thats not the point! I went in and I ordered a meatball which was good but she didn't put extra cheese. I ordered a turkey bacon with pepper jack pickles lettuce tomatoes salt pepper light oil and vinegar .. I got a turkey with two pickles ("literally") lettuce and 2 tomatoes no oil vinegar no salt pepper or bacon.... I also ordered a kids ham with bacon I got ham.... totally bummed out and disappointed paying 40$ for an order that wasn't right. Smh .... hopefully that server gets in her game.. read more

There service has gone down. Was the first to arrive when they opened. Ordered 3 sandwiches. Other people came and noticed they were getting their sandwiches soon after they ordered. 20 min later passed until I got my sandwiches. Apparently they had a new trainee make all my sandwiches without any help when they had all these workers just standing. They didn't even apologize. I can understand if they were busy, but they weren't. I drove from Murrieta to buy the sandwiches. I won't be going back again. Poor service read more

Dominick's is comfort food for any local from Fallbrook. I have been eating their sandwiches and salads since they opened when I was a kid. What I love most is nothing has changed. I can still get the same order I got over 35 years ago and it will taste the same. Their bread is amazing on their sandwiches-always super fresh! One of my favorite salads is the chef salad. Different than what one might be expecting, but the shredded lettuce, pepperoncinis, tomatoes, rolled meat/cheese and dressing all come together perfectly. I have this salad at least once a month! They also have great frozen meals you can heat up and great pizza dough! You must check it out! read more

Dominick's has very good food and great service too. Out of respect and care for the staff and owner, we are doing curbside pickup rather than dining in. We are doing the same all around town. Still, it brightens our day to see the cheerful staff bring our food out and set it on the car after we order and pay by phone. Support this local favorite by calling in your order for prepared dishes and ingredients and pulling right up to the front door to get it brought directly to your car while you're inside without a mask and with your windows rolled up. Let's all do our part to keep Fallbrook vibrant and healthy. Get your Italian food and ingredients at Dominick's! read more

Recently starting working in Fallbrook so Dominick's is now the closest sandwich shop near me. I couldn't be happier! Consistency has been the thing that stands out the most to me. My go to sandwiches are the Turkey and Jack or Tuna. I always add avocado and they don't skimp at all. A small is typically all I can eat for lunch. A large is big but well worth saving for later. Everyone is always very friendly and you can call and place an order ahead of time as well. Looking forward to trying their hot sandwiches and maybe some of their Italian specials that changes daily. Overall, great local Italian sandwich shop. read more

The sandwiches are delicious, but the experience is ruined because customer service has historically been poor. It's unfortunate because Dominick's sandwiches have been quite a staple in Fallbrook since I was a kid. I would definitely recommend customer service training for the employees, mainly the young women. read more

Really good place to get a sandwich. They are really expensive for a 12inch sub in my opinion. I would like to go here more often, but the price isn't right for the a sandwich or hoagie. read more

I grew up in the "Friendly Village" known as Fallbrook, California. For those unfamiliar with the town's big offerings, it's home of the Chateau La Rue (site of the Oxygen Network's reality show "Inn Love" with Tori Spelling), baseball hall-of-famer Duke Snyder, Dave Mustaine of Megadeath, and most importantly, it's the avocado capital of the world. It's far and away my favorite food that the birth of agriculture ever spawned. But in addition to the above-mentioned celebs that call Fallbrook home, it's also home to my favorite sandwich place on the planet, Dominick's. As a youngster, I frequented this spot almost daily. It was all about the provolone cheese & avocado sandwich. The cheese was always amazing, the avocado was divine, and the fresh-baked bread has a texture unlike any other bread I've had in my lifetime. Just thinking about it gives me bouts of nostalgia that won't soon be satisfied. If for some crazy reason, you find yourself very far away from San Diego, fumbling through the rolling hills of Fallbrook, please do yourself a favor and check out Dominick's Delicatessen. It's the epitome of small town Americana (in expat Italian form, of course). read more

Where to begin, DOMINICKS. Hands down my favorite sandwich place. Being that my hometown is Fallbrook, I have enjoyed Dominicks on countless occasions, and it is a required restaurant that I must eat at anytime I come home. Also, while in high school, I played basketball for Fallbrook High and basically ate Dominicks before EVERY game. It is THAT good. Amazing for basic italian sandwiches, pastas, etc. The ingredients are not fancy, and that is why it is even better. The ingredients are fresh and the cheese and meat are sliced are sliced right in front of you. The bread is perfect deli loaf, and the toppings are perfection: lettuce, tomatoes, onions, pepperoncinis, AND FRESH AVOCADO. After all, you cannot eat anything in Fallbrook without adding avo to it. Order: Turkey sandwich with pepper jack cheese, avocado, all the toppings (lettuce, onion, tomatoes, EXTRA pepperoncinis, oil/vinegar, salt and pepper). Eat it with a bag of jalapeno kettle chips and wash it down with a bottle of raspberry iced tea. Perfect, perfect, perfecto. read more

I recently moved to Fallbrook and being a sandy fan had to try the local Italian Deli! First time I went I had the Italian sub. Was very good. Came back a second time and had the Italian beef. Couldn't eat my than 3 bites. The beef was tough and chewy. It was dry with no juice or condiments. I gave 3 stars as an average. Will probably go back someday but will steer clear of the Italian beef! Also...the first time I went there was a very nice and engaging woman that helped me. The second time was a young guy and wasn't as friendly. read more

Complete waste of money. My last experience was the wrong order and this time it was just a complete waste of money. 2 small sandwiches with chips and a drink.... 25.00. Never again. About 3 slivers of onion and a slice of a small tomato. Don't waste your time. read more

Really very tasty. Great value for your money. Nice little location. We will love to try something different next time.

Delicious sandwiches, clean space, and wonderful service. Who doesn't love a classic deli spot for lunch or quick dinner. Truly fresh ingredients and prices that are about average for any deli spot. They have tons of homemade sides and goodies to browse and you'll never have to wait for a fantastic sandwich. We've tried classic turkey & cheese, almond chicken salad, and the Italian Combination on several different accounts. Also, cute lil market selections for Italian favorites. Stop by if your in or around Fallbrook! read more

Awesome little quaint deli shop. We were looking for some healthier food options in Fallbrook and this popped up on the Yelp search. Reviewing the photos of Dominick's Delicatessen sold us on choosing this location. We ordered two sandwiches, two side item, and a large lemonade. The first sandwich was the Tuna with all the trimming and the second sandwich was the Avocado and Cheese (to include all the trimmings minus mayo). Initially I was disappointed for the town being known for growing avocados because I was thinking of freshly sliced avocados on the sandwich and a layer of provolone cheese. It was more guacamole and cheese. The sandwich still tasted great as is and they were generous with the serving. My husband had the tuna and he loved it, especially on the soft bread. It was not saturated with mayo like most delis. It was great to enjoy the sandwich without having excessive trimmings fall off the sandwich onto the parchment paper. The rainbow pasta and the artichoke salads were delicious. Not heavily saturated in olive oil or salty at all. I would definitely purchase these items again. Taste lemonade which was refreshing on a warm sunny day. Not too sugary but still have the tart. The staff was friendly and very hospitable. Great small town feel and love supporting local Mom and Pop businesses. There is a reason why this business has strived in Fallbrook. May want to try their takeout dinner like Spaghetti and Meatball. read more

Since opening in 1980's had the best subs in town. Visiting my house in Cali makes me want to go more the turkey provolone with avocado from the avocado capital of the world. Is mind blowing Nothing compares to a California avocado taste buttery nutty never watery or a sweet like Mexico, Chilean avocados. read more

These sandwiches are AMAZING!!! I've tried multiple sandwiches here and they are all delicious !! Must eat spot in Fallbrook
