The panini was toasted nicely and the pesto did that good flavor but the meat was lacking flavor and the roasted red peppers were overpowering. The turkey sub was just a sub and was sloppy looking, meat falling out and the bread getting soggy. Wish I had a better experience!

Your neighborhood Italian deli, bakery and market all in one place!…read more Cavaretta's Italian Deli is an east coast style Italian deli that brings back a bit of nostalgia with old school vibes! They've been serving their loyal customers in the San Fernando Valley since 1959! Handmade meatballs and marinara sauce, that's simmered for 7 hours. Lasagna that's made from scratch daily. You can't beat their popular Italian Sub so of course we had to order that! Picked up a couple old school Italian sandwiches for our Hollywood Bowl show. Of course, we couldn't leave without their housemade Tiramisu and Carrot Cake Bar. Trust me, definitely worth it! Don't skip out on their cannolis and other desserts. There's a little market inside and seating. Perfect for a picnic or catering your next event!

Well, Well, Well…read more... It appears that my 23&Me ancestry composition has been recently updated and as of today, you are now looking at a 7.1%, Pure, Italian Stallion. Yeah, I too always thought I looked like a young Joe Pesci... Ha! Hey, Fugheddaboudit!!!! Hey, hate me for my ways, but blood is blood and I'm going to run with this Italian thing for as long as I can. And just as my "old Italian Nonna" might have said, had I actually had one... "O mangi la minestra o salti la finestra" But being that I am less than 10% actual Italian blooded, and me not actually having a Nonna who would probably just yell crazy things at me in Italian, I'll just stick to the little Italian that I actually know..... The Food!!!! Yeah give me.... A little meatballs slathered in marinara covered in melted provolone... Or Some thinly sliced prosciutto, mortadella, capicola on some crusty Italian bread... Or even... A square of lasagna with Italian sausage, mozzarella, ricotta, Romano cheese served with a chilled San Pellegrino to wash it all down... And you'd be 100%, not 7.1% correct, that I would enthusiastically rep my Italian heritage and proudly wave the colors of my National flag... The Red, The White & The Bl.... Errr, I mean Green! ;) Yes, I can admittedly get behind Italian food any day of the week and I know my "Nonna" would be proud. Well thankfully, you don't have to go all the way back to the Motherland to visit your Nonna and experience the old world eats of a little place called Italia! Cause Cavaretta's Italian Deli has all your Deli needs and wants covered. Yep, a San Fernando Valley staple since 1959, this spot has been and continues to be the place to grab the Best Italian sandwich (according to the Daily News) this side of the Colosseum (according to me, Lance L.). But the cocoa powder on top of the Tiramisu (aka the cherry on top)... This deli has an Italian Grocery shop with everything you need to make your real or made up Nonna proud back in your kitchen. So, forget about waiting around for your 23&Me results to come back and just get your little pasticcino buns over to Cavaretta's and live like the Italiano's do! Ciao Bella!

If your looking for a real sub look no further A friend…read moretold me about Cricca's Deli & being a big fan of Sub's I had to check this place out. Let just start with Cricca's Deli makes some seriously well-crafted sandwiches. The quality really stands out -- generous portions of meat, fresh vegetables, and great attention to detail in every bite. You have several choices of bread, and I went with the soft roll, which tasted bakery-fresh and was the perfect match for the sandwich. The large subs are truly large -- easily big enough to share between two people. If you're looking for a deli sandwich made with fresh ingredients and generous portions, Cricca's is definitely worth a visit. If you in the area or looking for a high quality sandwich you have to check this place out - you will not be disappointed. I'll be back For Sure

I don't eat that kind of bread do it made wonderful bird food. I don't recommend the bread. Smell was very much a deli. Small shop, not exactly bad but like preserved meats. The nitrates alone are worth making me run for the hills. Sometimes you get lucky. I may come back and grab a sandwich but hopefully they have better bread options. Maybe try different types of bread . The dough was the type that raises your blood sugar and smelled ultra processed. But then again, sandwishes are ultra processed foods unless you make it at home with whole ingredients on home made bread. Kevin, I think you're taking my review far more personally than it was intended. I actually started by saying your staff was fast, kind, and friendly, and I specifically said I may come back for a sandwich. I described my personal experience with the bread I received through Too Good To Go. I didn't say your business was bad, and I certainly didn't tell people not to eat Italian deli food. I said the particular bread wasn't something I personally eat and that the smell of the shop was very much what I'd expect from a deli with cured meats. You're absolutely entitled to disagree with my opinion, but responding by telling a customer to "have some perspective" and be "more thoughtful" because they didn't love what they received seems a little unnecessary. Reviews are opinions, not personal attacks. I'm glad you're using Too Good To Go to reduce waste, and I genuinely hope the business does well. I'll simply try a sandwich sometime and see if that's more my thing.

Honestly, I felt the price was a bit high for what I ordered, but everything was tasty and well prepared. Overall, it was a delicious experience, and I would come back again.

It was 3:30 PM and it's supposed to be open till at least five. I went in a week later and saw the place was very busy. There was one older gentleman running the kitchen and the register and so I had to wait about 15 minutes before I could order. As I was finishing my meal, I was waiting for proper timing in order to pay BC this man was constantly making meals. I wasn't happy about having to wait for things to happen properly, but I did appreciate this gentleman taken care of business all by himself.

Our favorite place to get banh mi!…read more Small shop in Bangluck plaza. Free parking located in front of the back entrance. Menu is located on the wall. You order at the register. You can watch them make the sandwiches in front of you. The ingredients are fresh! Our go to is #10: pork banh mi. Today was the first time we ate it right away! The bread was perfectly toasted and had a nice, crunchy bite. The pork was still warm. The veggies were fresh and crunchy! It hit the spot. So good!! We usually order to eat with friends or pack for a trip, and they hold up well. The price for #10 was $10.25, but on the receipt it said $11.25. plus extra surcharge for credit card. I asked about the higher price, and they said tax. It would have been clearer if they specified tax as a separate line item, but at least now we know.

Some evenings begin with a plan…read more Others begin with a rattlesnake. After one of the most emotionally exhausting weeks our family has ever endured, we found ourselves laughing in disbelief after being chased away by a rattlesnake at Las Virgenes Creek. Sometimes life has a funny way of reminding you that the best stories are never the ones you plan. Still carrying that adrenaline--and the weight of everything the week had brought--we made our way to Mendocino Farms in Calabasas, hoping for nothing more than a peaceful dinner. What we found was something far more meaningful. Our little girl, Pinta, had just celebrated her 17th birthday. To most people she's "just a dog." To us, she's family... our little strawberry. She's been courageously battling health issues, and after days of worry, tears, and countless prayers, there was one tiny victory worth celebrating: She wanted to eat. Without hesitation, one incredibly kind young gentleman--whose name I wish I could remember--prepared a fresh chicken dinner especially for her. It wasn't extravagant. It wasn't complicated. It was simply... kind. And somehow, that simple act became the most important meal served in the restaurant that evening. Watching her happily nibble on fresh chicken, stop for a sip of cool water, then come back for another bite felt like watching hope return one mouthful at a time. My partner and I couldn't stop smiling. After days of wondering what tomorrow might bring, we were finally allowed to simply enjoy today. What struck me wasn't just one employee--it was the entire team. There was no feeling that we were inconveniencing anyone. No rushed interactions. No obligation. Just genuine hospitality. Every smile felt sincere. Every conversation felt personal. Every moment reminded us that great restaurants don't just feed people... They care for them. I often think businesses spend enormous amounts of time trying to create memorable guest experiences, when in reality they're created by people who choose kindness in moments no handbook could ever script. If someone from Mendocino Farms' leadership happens to read this, I hope you know something: Whatever culture you're cultivating in Calabasas is working. Your team didn't simply serve dinner. They unknowingly became part of one of our family's favorite memories. Years from now, I doubt we'll remember exactly what we ordered. But we'll always remember the night our little strawberry smiled over a plate of chicken... and how a group of strangers made us feel like we belonged. Some restaurants leave you full. The very special ones leave your heart a little fuller, too. Thank you, Mendocino Farms. Thank you for reminding us that kindness is still the finest ingredient anyone can serve.

Another GREAT Ike's experience!…read more We tried two different sandwiches -- Matt Cain and Adam Richman. We also decided to have the Dutch Crunch for the first time -- nice crunch on the outside, soft chew and slightly sweet on the inside -- so good! Both sandwiches were delicious. I especially enjoyed the combination of pesto, avocado and honey in the Adam Richman -- yummmm! The staff were friendly and busy. There was a constant flow of customers dining in and picking up. Impressively everyone's pick up order was ready -- no one had to wait. Although this Ike's location is inside a large plaza, it's situated next to Super King. The parking lot directly in front is insane. We chose to park further out closer to Corner Bakery where open spots are plenty and the section is calmer. We'll be back! :)
