    Cali Chicken Club
    Amy B.

    Boy am I glad my buddy took me here. The staff are so incredibly friendly and helpful, you really feel welcomed. Let's talk about the food, oh my gosh just yum! I had the Cali Chickej Club, it was so flavorful and huge. I enjoyed every single bite. My buddy had the French Dip and he really liked it. He said he has had the chopped cheese before as well and it was amazing. This place is out of the way in an office building, but you just go!

    French Onion Soup. ‍ Didn't stand a chance  thanks Dominic!

    The food and customer service here is AMAZING!! Got the Cali chicken club combo and was given a complimentary French onion soup! Everything was so good! Dominic went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable, super friendly, I will definitely be back! Love this place.

    Excellent service and delicious food and coffee! We got the gyro burger and pastrami sandwich (i added sauerkraut), both so good. Definitely will be back :)

    I got the italian stallion and its deliciously gigantic. With big appetite ,I cant even finish. A very generous amount of food.

    been here several times, the workers are very nice and the food is delicious. it's always fresh and great prices for what you get! They have a daily soup and daily special. the workers gave me a free cookie because I work for the school nearby, so nice! the inside is clean and quiet. Definitely a great spot for a lunch. They have great options and variety, definitely be coming frequently

    Chili Cheese hotdog with fries. (Daily Special) The special only comes with one but the owner threw in an extra one for me :o)

    My office is located in the same building as the cafe and we have been ordering from here since it opened. This is a great family owned business where they treat you like part of the family and always make you feel welcomed. Their food is amazing and they always offer new deals and daily specials. The owner is fantastic and his hardworking family is also very welcoming. We order from here at least once a week and we are never disappointed. I typically order the club house sandwich as this is stacked high with plenty of meats and vegetables. I always add their chipotle sauce for extra flavor! Their prices are very reasonable and you really get what you pay for. I recommend this deli to everyone!!!

    Tuna melt

    Ordered for delivery from Jordan's Cafe while house sitting over here in La Mesa (I live in Linda Vista so I was testing the waters on Postmates) and I was very pleasantly surprised with my meal! I ordered a tuna melt on sourdough with cheddar cheese, the portion of tuna was healthy and the bread was toasted perfectly. To top it off they gave me two free cookies wishing me a Happy Friday, fives stars would recommend.

    HUGE Large tuna sandwich, with white onions added. So good.
    Jonathan M.

    Stellar service and stellar sandwich! Today I had the large tuna on sourdough with white onions. Last week I had the breakfast burrito, the week before the chipotle chicken sandwich (SO good as well) and honestly, anything I get from here I expect to be good at this point. The pictures don't do this justice. The team is always so happy and excited to be there, they all have great suggestions when you can't think about what to eat, and the specials and wide varieties of foods will keep you busy for a long time. DEFINITELY worth a try! It's on the 4th floor of the 7777 Alvarado building. Free parking in the garages and lobby levels.

They had a wide variety of free refill drinks that were very good as well. The owner was the only person working when we were there around 6:00 on a Wednesday night. He was attentive, outgoing, accommodating and friendly. He made us feel like family. The restaurant and the bathroom was clean and neat. I liked the Al Capone era pictures on the walls. And the "Cheers" vibe with the set up and decor was nice as well. All in all I loved the experience eating there and will definitely be back and will tell others to check them out.

I ordered the Al Capone on a torta, and my boyfriend got the chicken club on wheat. Both sandwiches were pretty good, the torta was very soft and fluffy, maybe a little too much bread for me, but still very good. The chicken on the club was flavorful. Both the Mac salad and potato salad are basic, but solid, you get a little 2 oz container with your sandwich. I'll definitely be back to try something else on the menu in the future. My only gripe is that the parking is very limited, likely since it's located within the local apartment complex. We had to park down the road and walk over to get to the shop.

    Wow! Their menu instantly reminded me of Cheesecake Factory's menu...extensive. But honestly,…read morethat's not a bad thing because there are plenty of options. They have everything from hot sandwiches and cold sandwiches to salads, wraps, and even breakfast items. You can order at the counter or on the kiosk. I ordered on the kiosk. Simple and quick. I ordered the wild-caught salmon sandwich with salmon, arugula, and garlic aioli. The salmon was cooked perfectly. They were a little skimpy on the aioli, so the sandwich was kind of dry, but it was still good. I also got a side of fries, and those shoestring fries were nice and crispy. Prices are reasonable, and there's seating both inside and outside. Shout out to Crystal. I don't know if she's the manager, but she definitely cares about quality customer service. Someone ordered the Green Beret sandwich, and it was brought out on toasted bread when apparently it wasn't supposed to be. She immediately went to the counter and let the cooks know about it. She meant business, and I liked that.

    Captain's Log, Stardate 21509.7…read more This past Friday I set my course for Did Z Akins in La Mesa -- a roadside star on I‑8 that my crew and I had passed a thousand times but never boarded. At long last we beamed down, and the experience surpassed every expectation. From the moment we entered, the atmosphere felt like coming home to a welcoming starbase. The staff treated us with genuine warmth and patience as we navigated a menu full of storied classics. Their attentive service turned a simple meal into a memorable mission. My first officer aka wife enjoyed a superbly composed salad, and chose the Turkey Club -- both delivered with thoughtful care. I began with the biscuits and gravy, a traditional hit that tasted like comforting shore leave. But the true highlight was the patty melt: perfectly seared, with lush caramelized onions and melted cheese that achieved harmony at warp speed. It was, without hyperbole, the best patty melt I've encountered in this quadrant. Each bite was a cascade of flavor that felt like discovering a thriving new world. This kitchen knows how to respect ingredients and execute classics flawlessly. No extra condiments were necessary -- the craftsmanship spoke for itself. DZ Akins is now a plotted course for every future convoy through I‑8. Highly recommended for anyone seeking honest, stellar diner fare and service that treats you like family among the stars. Captain 619, stay salty my friends!

    On 7 May this year, roughly somewhere in the late afternoon closer to the evening, my grandpa and I…read morestopped by here because, well... we needed something to eat. We figured this restaurant would serve us well for what it's worth. We had since discovered that depending on which section you were seated on, you may or may not get lacklustre service. This visit was such the latter case. Our waitress, who I believed to be named "Charlotte", unless of course I absolutely misread or misremembered the name, did not seem to recognise nor care for us, despite the amount of dough we put into their entire business (outside of their souvenir shop). Long story short: she was incredibly slow to get our drinks, and even slower to take our order. Meanwhile, she was more than willing to give a much more expedient service and a pleasant conversation to other customers and even her co-workers. At first with the initial service, I was worried about when she'd get on over here within the first five or so minutes to take our drink orders. Heck, even when I requested a refill for my water, she told us "give me a few minutes" as loud and clear as it were. But it wasn't until we were eating where she promptly asked the table behind us for their drinks, AS SOON AS THEY WERE SAT DOWN. That's when I got absolutely infuriated, and felt that my suspicions about her unpleasant and passive-aggressive behaviour were proven to be true. Keep in mind: it was practically dead, not even remotely busy during that day and time of day, with only but about eight customers in TOTAL, including us. The food was okay, I will say, but this time, I just didn't feel like I could take on the whole food order like I usually had done in the past. Whether it was because I slurped too much of that shake, or because I was being treated very poorly with my friend, one would have to take a stab in the dark on that one. We left extremely bitter about the situation, and we even thought a $10 tip was far too generous for the terrible treatment we received from our waitress around that day; we usually tip much higher than that. I've since been very uneasy about coming here even to pick up some fresh bagels from the bakery.

It sounded good but we also weren't really feeling like going "out" and something that could be delivered or that we could pick up seemed like the better play.

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.

The store is clean, beautifully organized, and filled with high-quality products you don't always find at larger chain grocery stores. What I love most is their fresh selection, especially the produce, specialty items, and unique gourmet finds. Everything looks vibrant and carefully displayed. You can tell they take pride in what they offer. They also have a full butcher shop with everything you could desire. The selection is impressive, and it's wonderful knowing you can get high-quality cuts prepared fresh right there in the store. It adds such a personalized, old-fashioned market feel that you just don't see everywhere anymore. Another favorite of mine is their fresh-pressed cold juice blends, which I absolutely love. They taste incredibly fresh, and you can truly tell the difference in quality. It's such a treat to grab one while shopping. The staff has always been friendly, helpful, and welcoming. It truly feels like a neighborhood market where customer service still matters. Whether I am picking up everyday essentials or something special for a gathering, I know I will find something wonderful here. If you appreciate quality, variety, and a pleasant shopping experience, Valley Farms Market is definitely worth a visit. I always leave happy!
