The pastrami sandwich is really delicious. The customer service is very friendly and patient, and the food comes out fairly quickly. Everything is freshly made highly recommended! read more

Expected More Lorenzo's Sandwich Shop at 911 Villa Ave in Belmont, CA, offers a thoroughly middle-of-the-road, mediocre deli experience that satisfies a basic hunger but doesn't quite live up to its local neighborhood hype. On the positive side, the family-owned, baseball-themed shop serves up very generous portions, and their signature, secret garlic sauce adds a genuinely tasty kick to popular picks like turkey on a Dutch Crunch or sourdough roll. However, the experience hits a routine baseline because they do not toast their bread, and the cold cuts are sliced a bit too thick for a truly premium sandwich. Furthermore, the logistics hold it back: the small venue has zero seating for a comfortable sit-down lunch, there is no customer restroom, and the wait times can drag significantly if you get caught in the peak lunch rush. It is a perfectly functional option for a quick, no-frills takeout bite if you are already in the Peninsula area, but it lacks the execution to make it a standout destination. Tip: Dutch Crunch Roll is dry and just not that good. Excitement turned to disappointment quickly. Thanks read more

Rave reviews brought me to Lorenzo's, and I'm glad I visited. It's not my favorite sandwich spot, for a few reasons - they don't toast their bread, their selection is a little limited, they slice their meats a little thick for my liking and they don't have any seating. But the staff are very friendly, the prices are reasonable, and the sandwiches are generously sized! Overall, not a bad place to pick up some lunch to go. read more

Went here today and got a ham and American on Dutch Crunch. My husband got a Pastrami on rye, with the rye toasted. I loved my sandwich and my husband said his Pastrami was amazing! We will definitely be coming back. The customer service was great, the man taking our order was super helpful, polite and gave good advice on a couple of questions we asked. You order outside, the counter is at the door. You hang out and wait for your sandwich and they call out your name when it is ready. There is no parking lot but you can park on the street. We parked around the block but the short walk was 1) good for your health 2) worth it for the sandwiches! We will be back! read more

A Belmont Institution! First introduced me to Dutch Crunch almost two decades ago- when you had to jockey for position in line in their teeny space and place your order in something akin to a secret language- 14 on dutch light garlic no tomatoes .... These are hands down best sandwiches! Their garlic sauce is the bomb the meat is always fresh and sliced thin and generous portions to boot! Don't miss out try it today ! read more

I've had sandwiches in Italy and France that I thought were great. But nothing tops good 'ol Americana sandwiches made here in Belmont. I always get the #13 with jalapeños and it's perfect. Been coming here for 15 years and the quality has never wavered. read more

This is a little take-out counter off of Ralston. Good sandwiches, fresh ingredients. The have a lot of sandwich options (only a few veg options with 1 sandwich that can be veganized). Most of the sandwiches come with a choice of several rolls or sliced breads, and several toppings (mayo, brown mustard, lettuce, onion, garlic sauce (an oily sauce), tomato, pickle). You also get to choose if the bread is toasted or not. I had the veggie (alfalfa sprouts, cucumber, avocado, no cheese) on toasted, sliced whole wheat with brown mustard, lettuce, and tomato. This was very good, although not too filling, so you might want to have something else as well. Service is efficient and friendly. Parking along the street. read more

I have had 2 sandwiches from here so far and it's great. You've got options here with veggies, spreads and cheese. I have got the turkey sandwich twice once on Dutch crunch and the other on sourdough. It was super tasty and very affordable. I would give it a 10/10 for over all taste and price. I think I will make this my new sandwich spot. read more

Ordered a sandwich for lunch and was seriously impressed. I got the salami with everything on it except the pickle. The sandwich was massive and packed with meat and toppings. What I really appreciated was that it wasn't overloaded with sauce. The flavors stood out on their own and everything was well balanced. Great portion, fresh ingredients, and super satisfying. read more

Asked the friendly cashier to hook me up with his best recommendation and he DELIVERED. I am new to the area from LA and already found a 10/10 sandwich shop. Shout out to Charlie for cooking this sandwich up! Full disclosure: I love sandwiches and I am not a picky eater I can admire every ingredient in a sandwich shop read more

A solid sandwich spot! I tried their Big Combo and Turkey Bacon Avocado sandwiches. We added provolone cheese and had the Big Combo on Dutch crunch bread, and I devoured it! The Big Combo has tons of meat including salami and ham. The sauce they add to these sandwiches is delicious! I also tried their Turkey Bacon Avocado with provolone cheese on Dutch crunch, and this sandwich was equally delicious! They don't skimp on the meat & veggies and these sandwiches, and you can never go wrong with Dutch Crunch bread. I called in my order, since I was ordering 6 sandwiches. It was pretty smooth to pick up the sandwiches, so I recommend calling if you're ordering a lot. I'd definitely come back if I'm in the area and craving a sandwich. read more

Limited bread choices. Couldn't toast our sandwich? And they got a simple order wrong. I wanted to like this place.

customer service is a WOW for me! In a time when customer service seems to have gone down the drain- this place prevails! Kind and efficient staff, amazing subs! be prepared to wait in line during busy hours (12-2pm). They also do not have indoor seating. You basically order at the window and wait curbside to pick up and go! limited street parking out front as well. Recommend for a great sub and service! read more

Great sandwich spot! Walked up and placed an order right before 12pm. Waited less than 10 minutes. I noticed that most people called ahead. My order was placed at the door and I waited with everyone else outside. The store was very small. Got the combo sandwich on sourdough. It came with their garlic spread- I added the jalapeño spread, as well. My sandwich tasted very fresh and delicious. It was a pretty stacked sandwich, so I only ate half. Highly recommend! read more

Came here to try their sandwiches and it didn't disappoint. They do charge for cheese, but honestly their prices and sizes are a great deal! Will come here more often. Order from the door and they'll bring your order out to you. I tried the roast beef and a turkey on Dutch crunch. Both were excellent. They recommended cheddar with my turkey but I think otherwise, maybe a provolone next time. read more

This is our favorite local sandwich shop! Never disappoints. Great food, great prices, quick. What else could you ask for?!

This is the spot! Delicious sandwiches and friendly staff. I had the turkey bacon avocado on dutch crunch. Prior to this, I always tried not fresh (?) dutch crunch so I never really understood the love for it, but after getting it here I understand! The bread was fresh and delicious, it showed me what a good dutch crunch is like! Soft but crunchy, wow! The texture on top was great. It was a good experience. I would definitely get dutch crunch again. I found the sandwich to be tasty and the garlic sauce to be working its magic. The lettuce is shredded which I think adds to the mouth feel. Nice crunchy and flavorful bacon. Overall, a great sandwich! read more

I love this place. Not only are the sandwiches great, but the employees are fantastic! No matter how buy, they are so friendly and fun.

All of their sandwiches are good, but my faves are chicken salad on various breads, always with sprouts and shredded lettuce - YES! Shredded lettuce! SO GOOD ON SANDWICHES! and the garlic spread they put on your sandwich is soooo good. You really should try this place - call ahead and then drive over for pickup! YUM YUM YUM!

A hidden gem and great sandwich spot overall. I called ahead to place an order for my sandwich and it was ready in about 15 minutes. I heard the wait can be up to 30 minutes so try to plan accordingly if it's lunch hour! I got the Turkey sandwich with everything on it which comes with a great garlic spread and fresh vegetables and bread. Staff is always very friendly whenever I come here, and the ingredients are always fresh. Keep in mind the limited hours during the day. Definitely recommend! read more

Our go-to sandwich place on the peninsula: the 4 (hot pastrami) and 14 (turkey, bacon, avocado). Get the Dutch crunch bread! Also recommend calling your order in, as there can be a line to order. read more

The best, no notes. Super fresh ingredients, some of the best customer service I've ever seen, and absolutely delicious sandwiches. There are plenty of places to get a good sandwich on the peninsula, but I think this is the best. They do get busy (people know Lorenzo's), but I've always been able to call ahead and place a pickup order, never had an issue. read more

This was the first and unfortunately the last time I will visit this establishment. I was looking forward to an awesome sandwich, but it was not so. The sandwiches are small, miserable amounts t of meat and just not worth it. There are many deli in the area that are superior and deliver a great product. I do not understand how this deli has been opened for so long, maybe it was my luck, or should I say lack of.... The pictures are from my turkey and cheese item, but all I received was bread and lettuce! I will not recommend this place and this was the only time I will spend money here. read more
