    Spacious, clean, fresh, quick. Cute mom and pop shop. I had the steak hoagie it was hot and tasty. I would go back. Lots of drink options and fountain drinks. Beer, wine, iced teas. Burgers, cheesesteaks, fries, chips. Great variety. I door and outdoor seating.

    My breakfast bowl

    We don't live in the area and we're staying across the street looking for something quick and easy to grab for dinner when we found Evan's, and it was the BEST experience. Evan was so friendly, our original to-go order, we ended up eating there just because we loved the experience so much. I have a gluten issue, and he was so knowledgeable and made me the BEST salad I have ever had. My fiancé got a sandwich and a brat, and said it was the best he's ever had. We loved it so much, we went back the next morning for breakfast. He made me a delicious bowl and my fiancé got a giant breakfast burrito. We will 1000% be back and constantly chasing this experience. And I think we will only get here. I will tell everyone I know going to San Diego to go here.

    The Philly with Maui Onion chips
    Fareed S.

    Hidden gem. Well worth it given how good the food is. Got the Philly cheesesteak with Maui Onion chips. Soft bread with tender meat. Fast, friendly service. Comfortable no-frills seating works well. Great lunch spot

    This is truly a neighborhood deli! I was brought here by my friend who lives around the corner who says this is their to go place when they want a quick sandwich. After experiencing my sandwich I understand: you get good value and quality here! Plus the staff really care about their end product. I ended up getting the meatball sandwich and it was great! It had the perfect amount of sauce, cheese and meat ratio. Plus on the perfect roll. I was very satisfied. My friend got a tuna sandwich and it was a good looking sandwich as well! As for seating: out front there are a couple of tables on the sidewalk. Inside you can find more tables that are in a spacious area. It seems like most people take their food to go. When I'm in the area and in the mood for a sandwich, I would definitely come back!

    Italian

    First time here, we saw it on our way back from a bbq place that was full. The Whiz Steak and Italian were really good. The toast on the Whiz Steak made it really stand out and threw me back to Philly. The Amoroso bread they used for both the Italian and Whiz Steak is a definite must. I wish I could've had it with a beer but overall it was a good experience. The owner was nice and served us quickly and politely. The ambience was perfect for the type of food served. Definitely will be going back.

    Philly Steak Fries
    Cirwan S.

    That's the best Philly I've had in San Diego in a while. After fishing we came to Evan deli for the first time. Me and my buddies were hungry from being on the boat all day. We shared the Philly and it was amazing ! We shared the Philly fries and we all loved them. They also had a chicken Philly with cheese Wiz my buddies shared and they loved it. I love pastrami so I had half of a pastrami bombi sandwich. My other buddies had the chicken Cesar wrap and it was their favorite item. The owner was the cashier and he was telling us the meat, snacks, and craft sodas all come from Philly. You have to try the orange cream soda when you come. Delicious !! They also have craft beers inside. Definitely coming back! The restaurant was clean and staff was friendly.

    Pastrami Bombie
    Brian D.

    Really enjoyed Evan's deli and brew. We ordered two sandwiches, both recommended by Evan as the favorite sandwiches, the pastrami bombie and the Philly. Both sandwiches were perfect sizes but there's plenty of options to get a 12 inch sandwich and customize bread choice.

    Pastrami Bombie
    Ryan B.

    I have been craving a good deli sandwich for so long now and this hit the spot. Not too crazy expensive, lots of meat, and friendly guy at the counter. It's close to home so I'll definitely be back to grab another sandwich very soon!

    Pastrami Bombie on rye
    Laurie Z.

    Food, service and food. Came in here with no expectations. Boyfriend wanted a philly. They recommended the Philly and a Pastrami Bombie. It was delicious, rye bread perfectly toasted. Just the right amount of coleslaw, that did NOT make it soggy. Great root beer choices and fries and onion rings were delicious. A great mom and pop modest restaurant. I recommend.

    Philly cheese steak
    Chris D.

    Great Philly cheese steak! Soft toasted Amoroso rolls are always a good sign for any cheese steak and it did not disappoint. I got the small and was so good I was disappointed i didn't get the bigger size. Definitely a spot to check out!

    Turkey Bacon Avocado Wrap plated at home- unfortunately not my favorite

    I remember back when you were a wee baby…read more Covid-19 flashbacks to 2018...we were having dinner in the Kearny Mesa-Convoy St. area and wanted to check out what was new or different nearby and saw Hopnonymous on the Yelp search results. As we parked I realized this was the former location for Council Brewing (RIP - I liked their bourbon barrel aged stout btw). Other than the large wooden council table removed and obvious branding & decor changes, the general layout looked familiar. We received a warm, friendly welcome from Remy, who shared the brewery concept and backstory. Sampled beers from their list of six offerings and said we would return. Additional return visits and fast forward to 2026 with Hopnonymous Brewing doing quite well. The front patio is built out with additional seating, table space, and another tv screen to accommodate beer loving sports fans. The rotating food truck and pop-up kitchen schedule offers a variety of eats in with Trivia Tuesdays. Hop beertenders are very nice and a positive reflection of Remy's hospitality. Customer service is key. Until next time...Cheers!

    So here's the reason they have the overall 4.8 stars in case you didn't know. They produce kick ass…read morebeers across the board. Even the lady likes the seltzer called Juicebox Hero. Taken from that Foreigner song. It was called Jukebox Hero. Play on words. It's common in the beer industry. Familiarity with a twist. My personal favorite is the Big Fundamental IPA, which they don't always have on tap since it's not one of the core beers here. I've tried at least 5-6 other styles and they were all top tier. Just think of this, in a time when local breweries are closing faster than they open, this place is thriving. No doubt very impressive. They recently took over the Little Miss brewing location on Adams avenue, and for good reason. Build the business. They needed this in the area. There is still enough demand for great beer as you get closer to North Park believe it or not. On my most recent visit they did my favorite beer and chatted with the owner Remy for a minute. I met him pouring the beers back when they first opened years back. Great friendly Frenchman I must say! He even invited me to come to the Adams location next week as they will be installing an air conditioning system, so I'll stop by. He has a beer waiting for me I just know it.

Shout out to Dani for hustling behind the bar, while still providing such warm service. The outdoor area is the pièce de résistance of this brewery. The outdoor area gets a 5/5 for having a ton of seating, tables, and some shade covering. I love that they have some dartboards here, but both of them were so worn down, the bullseye areas were completely shredded. Since they're shredded to the core, the darts won't stick to the board in the bullseye areas, rendering the boards effectively useless. Please cop a few $50 dartboards and bring the back the fun.
