    not good: the torta ratio was not good. the meat eas really mushy so i felt like i was eating bread with mush

    I've been hitting up Yelp's top 10 delis in San Diego and this was definitely a worthy entry. Mali's is a cute little place on a cul-de-sac of tech businesses near the Montgomery Field airport off Ruffin Road. There is ample seating outside with umbrellas to protect folks like me who explode into flame if sun touches them. I got a turkey, avocado, and bacon sandwich on lightly toasted sourdough. It was delicious with plenty of fresh ingredients. The staff was super nice and attentive and went out of their way to get my Dad's fussy tuna sandwich order correct. I'll definitely be coming back! Thank you ladies!

    Very good! First time trying this place! Reasonable prices and fresh sandwiches! I loved that you can order half sandwiches

    Happened to get some vouchers to use here from our stay at a neighboring hotel, so honestly I…read morewasn't expecting much. We ended up stopping by three different days for different things. Every employee we interacted with was incredibly sweet and welcoming each time. This review is mainly for our Sunday breakfast experience. Cloud 9 is more than just your typical deli. They have a pretty large menu with breakfast, hot and cold sandwiches, burgers, wraps, salads, flatbreads, soups, smoothies plus cold-pressed juices. We got the Monte Cristo ($14.99), which comes with Boar's Head oven-roasted ham, Havarti cheese, mustard and mayo on egg-battered white bread. It's pan-fried then finished with powdered sugar. Service was quick. Once we got the sandwich, we were DEVOURING it. Such a good Monte Cristo. They were super generous with the ham. The havarti was perfectly melted, giving you that cheesy pull with every bite. The bread was toasted perfectly with nice crisp edges while still staying soft inside. Add that little sweetness from the powdered sugar. What more could you want from a Monte Cristo? It also comes with some maple syrup and fruit on the side.

    Honestly, this might be my favorite breakfast burrito in San Diego…read more If you're team crispy tots over soggy potatoes in your breakfast burrito, this is the spot for you. The tots give it that perfect crunch and make the whole burrito way better. Could the salsa be better? Absolutely. But honestly, the burrito is still really damn good. Definitely worth trying if you're a breakfast burrito person.

    Coming back to send my love to my favorite sub place…read more I've sadly moved to a different part of town so Fatboy's is no longer a few blocks away. I still try to stop by every few months as this place holds a special place in my heart. A no frills spot. Solid and consistent. To the point but friendly customer service. Fantastic drink, chip and snack selection. Sandwiches are always bomb asf. The hot momma and BLT loaded up is my favorite. My husband still loves their Ruben (it is his favorite place to get it.) You get a small potato or macaroni salad on the side with a pickle (perfect crunch.) I personally think it's a great little add on. Their chili is also simple but delicious. I personally think their chili pairs perfectly with any of their sandwiches. It's not a heavy thick chili. Which is why I think it pairs so well. I won't lie it's a bit pricey but you get what you pay for. It's loaded up and good quality. I never feel gross or overly bloated after eating here. I will be coming back to Fatboy's until I move out of San Diego or die. lol. One of my favorite gems in SD. Always will be worth the drive or walk. Thank you for always delivering even years later.

    Heard this place had a great breakfast so decided to stop by…read more Had the breakfast sandwich and the Smoked Bologna sandwich. Both were HUGE! I'd definitely recommend both. Please note they are a tad greasy and again, large. So don't come in for just a snack! The meat on both were the superstars. They also are a full butchery (they even have a subscription box!). So there are meats in the case and marinated options galore. We came for breakfast but left with some chicken and red meat options for dinner this week. It's a tad expensive for both sandwiches and the meats but all in all seem right for the quality. Service was also fast and friendly. Very knowledgeable and ready to help. We got street parking but there's also a small lot it's attached to. There's some counter seating outside you can eat at once you order. Would def recommend!

    The smell alone pulled me in. This small butcher shop turns out seriously tasty sandwiches,…read morehigh‑quality meats, fries, and drinks to go. I was next door grabbing coffee, saw a steady stream of people coming in and out, and couldn't resist hopping over for a turkey sandwich to go. They text you when your order is ready, and mine took no more than 10 minutes. The sandwich came out hot and toasty -- the sourdough was buttery and crisp, which I loved. Definitely planning to come back to try the burger and the beef‑fat fries. For meats, they carry beautiful steaks, pollo asado, and carne asada. Prices are on the higher side, but the quality looks worth it. I'd absolutely come here for steaks for a special occasion.
