    Best damn sandwich I ate in recent times! I went here for a lunch break with my fellow Park Ranger. The ambiance looks like a Rocky movie with vintage menus and boxing/ sport pictures. The service is welcoming and felt like grandma's cooking brewing down the hall. I like the scenery.. A classic hole in whole joint :) I ordered the Paul Special sandwich, which consist of a ham and sort of Italian recipe in it. The vinaigrette is so good that enhances the whole sandwich's flavor. And of course a combo meal consist of a drink and a chips. This place is so simple and humble that I will go back here for more :)

    Great Place! Feels like a real Italy sandwich shop.  Boxing pioneers everywhere on the walls.

    I was craving sandwiches, so my husband took me here to satisfy my craving. I ordered the 6" meatball sandwich with extra cheese, but it didn't come with the extra cheese--slightly disappointing. It also wasn't as saucy as I'd hoped, but still a solid meatball sandwich that hit the spot. My husband got the 6" Italian sandwich. The flavors were great, but he felt it could use a bit more shredded lettuce. The highlight was the hospitality from the owner, Paul. He was incredibly welcoming, friendly, and made for great conversation. The ambiance had a classic mom-and-pop feel, decorated with soccer photos and trophy pictures.

    Menu board as of my 10/16/24 visit. Ceiling tiles in disrepair and overall, a little messy.

    Working in the area and decided to stop in for lunch. I had a hankering for a Meatball Sub or a Philly Cheesesteak, and it was suggested that I try their Meatball Sub, and that I also just order a "half", as they were huge. It came with toasted bun, plenty of cheese, but the meatballs were a little on the smaller side. Also, the sauce was a little garlicky, but still tasty. They did have some good deli-style "Dirty" brand chips in several flavors, which I enjoyed. The dining area is not the most modern or updated. There were four tables and four chairs at each table, but also a lot of stuff stored in the dining area. The kitchen work area is a little bit dark, there were panels missing over some of the lights, and the beverage refrigerators were only partially stocked (less than half full). Parking is easy in the large shopping center lot. I was a little surprised, as Yelp reviews for this place rave about the food and service, and I thought that it was quite average. Maybe I was in on an off day. I would stop in again when working in the area to give them another try.

    Get the torpedo! So so good! Chicken parm is great and the pork sandwich as well! Nice family place

    Prosciutto Sub

    This is the best prosciutto sub I've had hands down. Perfect amount of toppings and meat. The bread is perfect with the right amount of salt. The young man who made our sandwiches and took our order was so polite and kind. The white pasta salad is so garlicky and I mean that in the best possible way. I'll def come back. The owner was kind enough to give us a cannoli which was just a nice touch and perfect amount of sweet to balance all the savory.

    See that right there? I circled it for you. That, my friend, is a good sub. The Paul's Special.

    The reason they call it a deli is because it's DELICIOUS! If you want an American style sub sandwich and you're in Westminster, CA, then you have to try Paul's Deli. I've eaten the subs from here about four or five occasions. I have never been disappointed. I like the roast beef and the Paul's special. This deli is small and unassuming. The decor is ALL boxing related so that is pretty cool. The staff is super friendly. And they put pride in their craft...crafting a sub you can depend on. Paul's Deli....There just ain't no substitute!

    Not a lot of places you get to interact with the owner. Paul welcomed us with a lot of enthusiasm and energy. You can tell he's proud of his business...respect! Wife was craving. Meatball sandwich and it did the job. I had the recommended Italian, both 1/2 subs and it felt like a full sub at other places. It was good. I like mine drenched in oil and vinegar so I should've asked but it was a nice balance of flavors. The meatball could use more sauce but (again we should've asked) but it was good nonetheless. We will be back. Great neighborhood sandwich spot we found.

    This place gives me NYC deli vibes, the service is amazing and the turkey sandwich was one of the best I've ever had! Bread is perfect, turkey and cheese was fresh and the veggies and Italian dressing on top was Highly recommend this place!

The desserts are a MUST TRY. Nothing ever disappoints. The prices are very good for the amount of food that you get.

Inside, the place is clean, and there are things to look at inside while waiting, like the food items they sell on the shelf! The service from every employee I've encountered there has been beyond excellent. They are all willing to answer questions, give suggestions, and provide a great service. Whatever distance away you are, this place is worth the drive. Support a good local family business!!!

Her father was the original owner; they have unique sandwiches and I would encourage you to try the most popular menu items because they are all deliciously flavored. If I did it all over again I would have requested extra mustard on the chef's special. We also requested warmed subs and that was a nice touch with the freshly prepared and lighted crusted French rolls. If you are in the mood for a good sandwich and sweet warmly welcoming folks, make sure to stop by and give them a try. They do party trays and subs ranging from 6inch, 8 inches and 16 inch!

Employees are courteous, friendly and very helpful. The restaurant serves a variety of German dishes (get your money's worth). Waitresses are very friendly. The atmosphere is family oriented (alcohol is served). There are two parking areas, for this establishment, the 1st is at the light & the second is further down, parking was a breeze. There is sufficient disabled parking at both parking lots. I was so caught up on the place, I forgot to take pictures. Note: cashier Susan L seems to be a nice person but needs to learn customer service skills, she doesn't deal well with multi-tasking, stresses out easily, and is vocal of such, and comes across as pushy.

It gives cave like vibes and maybe..maybe small neighborhood european marks feels due to the variety of items offered. They have meats, cold foods, bakery, grocery items, and various snacks and alcohol. We checked out their alcohol section to see if there were any unique items, but nothing really caught our eye. Probably because they were charging like $7 for a 12oz bottle. overall, I did not find anything really special about this deli. I feel like if you are looking for something just to get- you'll find it, but for a price.

We got sat in the upstairs section all the way in the back, we waited a little over 10 minutes before anyone came to take our drink order. The server saw us seating there at least 3 times before she approached us at the 10 minute mark, I set up a timer and we're getting ready to walk out when she came. We placed our order, we got our drinks (3) but only 2 straws she acknowledge that she needed to get one more straw but didn't come back. Out order came out and we were told the small salad we ordered was being re-done because they had prepared a full size, we cancelled it at that point because the rest of the food was already at the table. The server disappeared and never even brought a refill for me, earlier she had brought a couple of refills, upon request, for the other 2 people in our party but she never followed up with my refill. The fried mozzarella was fantastic, and the chicken noodle soup was good, the pizza was just ok but the pastrami sandwich was disappointing. We paid $24 for a sandwich where half of the filling was fat....not worth it! The pastrami was tasty but some of the pieces were chewy and well check the photo to see the amount of fat served. We spoke to the manager who actively listened to us and apologized but the server just ended up giving us a bad attitude. We will definitely stick to visiting this place for breakfast only and request to be seated in a different section where we know the service is better.
