    Number 1, fabulous!
    Amy D.

    Drove by this deli the other day and saw a giant red fire truck parked outside with several firefighters eating lunch! So I decided to check it out. Adorable hole in the wall mom and pop deli with fabulous fresh sandwiches (cold and hot)! They have a very large menu with fresh cut veggies and all the fixings. I ordered a number 1 - turkey and cheese on a croissant with avocado, sprouts, tomato added pickles, pepperoni and pickled jalapeños! You can also add mayo and mustard. Service was friendly, quick! They made lots of suggestions on what to get. Cute basic inside with comfortable seating. Very clean. Highly recommend a stop! It was so delicious and fresh. I will definitely be back to try more of the menu.

    I was in the Poway and was craving a sandwich. I ran into this Deli shop. Overall good menu. I hand the Muhammad Ali sandwich. I recommend it. Plenty of parking and seating.

    Great sandwich- got the turkey bacon w/ the works ! Double decker to fit everything in. Fresh ingredients, highly recommend.

    Chicken salad sandwich on toasted sourdough

    This is a great place to get a sandwich. Service was fast and super friendly. I ordered the Howard Cosell (I'm thinking a lot of people don't even know who he was) Anyways, it's a ham and turkey. I ordered it on a sub roll with no mayo, cheese, or onions. I also added pickles and pepperocinis which I'm so glad they offered. I ordered it to go even though they do have seating inside and out. For only $9 my sandwich was filled with meat and the veggies. A way better deal than the chain sandwich shops. The best part is...it was delicious and so big that I could only eat half so I have lunch tomorrow! They are located in the Poway business area so I'm sure they get busy for lunch. I will be back.

    #4 club sandwich  Turkey bacon cheese lettuce, and tomato and mayo and mustard
    Maddie L.

    The owner and his wife were so nice and sweet. Most important the sandwich was amazing and delicious. I ordered the #4 club it is turkey bacon cheese lettuce and tomato. One of the best club sandwich I have eaten in a while. Also it wasn't expensive at all it was only $11 for a huge sandwich. The owner was so so kind I will def come back and try their other sandwiches

    #3 with onions

    I wish I worked closer to this place. I got the #3 with onions and it was amazing. I also had the cucumber salad and macaroni salad, also amazing. Super friendly staff too.

    Small family owned business (sandwich shop) that's been in this Poway office park for years. The husband and wife are super friendly and eager to answer any questions you have. Big hearty sandwiches at great prices. Very pleased with my turkey and ham sandwich (think it's called the Howard Cosell). Question: was there ever an Eat Your Heart Out I?

    BBQ roast beef

    The food is great, always surprised with the quantity and quality for a very reasonable price. Definitely going to be a regular here.

    Number 5 club sandwich, pastrami and swiss, and some drinks and cookies

    Eat Your Heart Out II is a wonderful mom and pop shop deli with delicious sandwiches and amazing service. You can really feel the love in the food and the price is very affordable. I would definitely recommend eating here, the workers behind the counter are so sweet and we really just had a great experience.

    Number 8 Turkey & Pastrami with melted cheese and 1000 Islands dressing.

    Does this place allow smoking in their outside seating area? I have really bad allergies to second hand smoke but prefer eating outside

    I've never seen anyone smoking outside.

    First off, getting food nowadays sucks. No real customer service skills anymore. I walked into The…read moreLocal Bite and was met with a very warm and welcoming " Hey man, how's it going? " from a gentleman behind the register and a " Hi honey, what can I help you with? " from the woman behind another register in the deli. It's a pretty decent menu and prices are good too. It was extremely laid back and friendly. Good music on the radio and a huge selection. I ordered the Poway wrap, it was delicious. The food came out quick and wasn't cooked in a microwave. I gotta say, I'll definitely go back.

    I dropped my kid off at the baseball field (pregame) and decided to check Yelp because I had a…read moreserious hankering for a sando. This place popped up at #1, and honestly that was enough for me. I didn't even read the reviews. When I pulled up, I almost drove right past it because it's tucked inside a liquor store. But hidden gems are usually called hidden for a reason. I walked in and asked what their most popular sandwich was. The guy recommended the California Club, which happens to be one of my go to sandwiches anywhere, so I told him to make that and add pickles because let's be honest, you gotta have pickles. Now I'm not gonna sugarcoat it, the guy making the sandwich took a sweet time. I mean almost a solid almost 10 minutes, and at one point I caught myself thinking, "This thing better be incredible." Well... it was incredible. Absolutely worth the wait. Fresh bread, stacked, flavorful, tactical, and one of those sandwiches where after the first bite you immediately stop caring how long it took. In fact, after the baseball game I went back a second time and grabbed a Cobb salad for my wife. Of course I had a few bites as a delivery tax. That thing was tremendous too. When I picture a really good Cobb salad, this is exactly what I want. Packed with egg, bacon, avocado, and just the right amount of blue cheese. Not skimpy at all. The salad also took longer than expected, but honestly I'd much rather wait a few extra minutes for food that's made right instead of rushed garbage. Well done. Easy five stars.

You can order ahead if you want to save time. Parking is very easy in this plaza. They have some outdoor seating, not quite as nice as the 4S location but it does the job. Love the sandwiches here. We were deeply disappointed by the side salad we ordered though. It was overpriced, very small, and worst of all it tasted pretty terrible. It was the Thai mango salad. It was my first salad I tried but very very likely the last. I still like to come here for sandwiches and will be the only thing I stick to. All of their sandwiches have been pretty tasty.

There's an outdoor foosball table available, fancy benefit for the kids to occupy their time. My Thai mango salad was fresh and enough for two adults! The salads are well prepared here, you cannot go wrong with the salads here. You have to option to have the dressing tossed in or on the side when ordering. The not so fried sandwich was fresh and delicious! We came here on a Friday at 4 pm, not crowded but I imagine this place is popular during the lunchtime. I've been at the downtown and La Jolla locations and those spots are very busy at lunchtime. My point is, order through the app during lunchtime. I would come back at this location, the service and food are good here. Enjoy!
