The torpedo sub was hefty but also refreshing with the vinegar/onions/lettuce. Theres also a bunch of goodies displayed around the store and a pizza spot next door so it was fun to browse while waiting for our sandwiches. You order, pay, and then bring your receipt to grab your sandwich.

Bland, not much flavor. Lots of meat.... However, they did not drain the meat after cooking it. So basically you're eating an awful lot of grease.

Food in the pizzeria was terrible and they weren't terribly helpful. I had also taken to Arancini. Also pretty bland. Not all food needs to be interesting but when you're paying good money in a lousy economy, it should be better.

There's a TV with games on for ones viewing pleasure and music playing lightly in the background. System all around here. Investing for customers and ample seating. They have a great selection of the variety of laborers to choose from coffees, smoothies, and they have matcha. This is going to be one of my new favorite spots when I wanna treat myself and I can't wait to try more or anything that they recommend from there!

As soon as I walked in the doors, it was decorated so cute. Very colorful, vibrant, and designed to impress. I also noticed they take pride in keeping their little coffee shop clean. I noticed the menu is extensive and impressive. So, if you are needing a new coffee shop to try, hang out, or simply to replace Starbucks, here they are! The coffee was high quality, smooth, and loaded with flavor. I wanted to give a special shout out to Sandi and Daniel because they told me it was a family-run business. They were friendly, professional, and hospitable to me. I loved the personal connection I felt which made me feel right at home. It is located in Spring Valley on Campo Road tucked away. They are a hidden gem that must be experienced. I need to come back with my appetite because they have it all here. Thank you Sandi and Daniel for giving the small-town friendly coffee experience that is rare to experience in a big city.

On my last visit, I went a little off-menu and ordered a chile verde omelette. I already knew their chile verde was legit from past visits, so I had them add it in--and wow...absolute flavor bomb. Tender, rich, and perfectly balanced with the eggs. One of those simple upgrades that turns a solid breakfast into something memorable. The potatoes were crisp, the toast was on point, and everything came out hot and fresh. You can tell they take pride in what they're putting out. If you're in the area and want a reliable, no-nonsense breakfast spot with great flavors, this is it.

When you see the entire store front packed with City Workers enjoying their meals...IT'S A MUST TO STOP AND TRY THEIR FOOD! That speaks volume in itself! I just love "MOM AND POP" locations! I believe this shop is a mother and son ran operation and they are an amazing duo dishing out amazing subs for reasonable prices! Watch out other sandwich chains out there cause Grove Grinder IS WHERE IT'S AT!!!! They have been in business since 1972...NUFF SAID! I ordered the Ann Special with everything on it. They do not skimp on meat and the proportion of bread to meat to veggie ratio is spot on! A full size sandwich is enough to feed two people easily or one very hungry person. I did not try any of their side items or large selection of root beer drink options to choose from but, I will be back many more times to try all they offer! Thank you Grove Grinder for amazing eats and allowing me to snap all my photos of your small shop for my review! If in Lemon Grove, show some love to Grove Grinder and grab you one of their amazing affordable, delicious subs...YOUR WELCOME IN ADVANCE!

I'm a little heartbroken about this because I had a 5-star review drafted up for this place that…read moreread: "Grove Grinder is the GOAT of neighborhood sandwich shops. Over the years that I've been coming here, I've been pleasantly surprised to find that the quality, portion size, and price point has kept pace with inflation and remains the best sandwich option in East County." I'm certainly not the longest-running customer of this spot, but I have been coming to Grove Grinder ever since I moved to the area four years ago. I kept coming back, wrote rave reviews in San Diego food-related social media groups and threads, bugged food influencers about them, and sent many of my friends and family their direction because I was that big of a fan. My husband and I have taken these sandwiches on roadtrips and plane rides, grabbed them in the middle of household chores, and picked them up for each other when the other is too tired or sick to cook. The reason why I'm ultimately knocking this review back and heavily questioning whether I should return has to do with a disappointing experience from my last visit with my husband that we now think was part of a larger pattern. The past couple of times we saw this person at the register, we used my name for the order. This time, though, my husband gave his name instead and the person at the register gave him some attitude about it and asked "You're *really* going with that?" I don't understand what their problem was with his name, but both the person in the front and the staff in the back refused to use it. They called out everyone else's names (and they usually call out mine when I order) and we noticed that our sandwiches were looking skimpy compared to how stacked we know they can come. My husband uses a nickname that might not be the name he was given at birth, but is a name he has used for over 20 years and might as well be his "real," name. We don't want to make assumptions, but most of the staff has always been at least a little cold towards us at best, slightly rude at worst, and even though this experience might seem relatively small to some, it's ultimately the straw that broke the camel's back. We suspect that their distaste for us might be politically motivated. We know it can't be personal because we've been nothing but polite. It sucks, but it seems to be that if they perceive you to not be "their people," your money isn't as green at their establishment, even if it spends all the same. I loved this place and felt lucky that they're close to my house, but feeling disrespected and like the staff are trying to fire us as customers is enough motivation to take our business elsewhere.

We ordered the 'That's My Boy' and 'Meet Meat' pizza plus their fries. Their deep dishes were light and crispy. I loved the sweet sauce, jalapeño and ricotta cheese combo on That's My Boy pizza. The Mastiff Fries had a wonderful crispy texture. They are like thinly sliced potato wedges. (Our order is without cilantro which normally comes with it) The staff was super friendly and the restaurant was clean. They did have two tv screens playing the sports channel and had a variety of draft beer options.

Believe me, I know that those of you who don't know Valley Farm will likely say "really?" when I detail that this sleepy little Spring Valley market kicks out poke as good as anywhere else in SD, but it's true.

It just tasted like salmon coated in some kind of sesame oil. I still ate it with snacking seaweed but I would not buy again. -Hatch chile Caesar wrap, I liked that the wrap was soft and not soggy. Chicken was grilled and diced, lettuce was crunchy and hatch chile tasted grilled and notably cold, came with Caesar dressing on the side. There was nothing wrong with the ingredients but together it just made a very underwhelming wrap, I didn't really taste any flavor from the wrap even with the help of the dressing.

The service is friendly. 2. I had a BLT and it was tasty. 3. It was relatively busy for a Saturday morning ( before 9am) yet there was plenty of seating available and the noise levels shifted a little from low to average. 4. My only real negative point comes from the coffee itself. I ordered a hot lavender bliss latte. It was good, I could definitely taste the honey with subtle hints of lavender. I just wish the coffee itself was a bit stronger as well as a more pronounced lavender flavor. I'll stop by again and give the coffee another chance and let you know if my rating changes. That being said I wouldn't pass on it if you are in the area.
