The food and service are awesome!! Everyone who works here is so sweet and friendly! And the food is wonderful--very fresh and a lot of healthy options. I'll definitely be back soon. Thank you for an excellent dinner and they good music playing too read more

Live nearby, but hadn't tried this place yet. Heard SO many people talking about it that I had to give it a try. Menu is HUGE, so it was hard to decide. Decided to share the Asian salad and bbq chicken flatbread. Both good... but there's so many other things I want to try on the menu!! Tiny indoor dining area, patio area outside nice if it's not too hot. Order at the counter then they call you to pick up your order. Heard people steal other people's orders sometimes so don't wander away too far while waiting. read more

I've been eyeing this place for awhile for a post gym meal! Finally got to check it out, and it did not disappoint. It was pretty bustling the day I went so you could hear active sizzling on the skillet and sandwiches being made. I got the french dip to go and a couple of pre-made desserts to go. I didn't eat the sandwich for about 45 minutes because I had some errands on the way home, and the french dip was surprisingly still warm. It was so good!!!! I'm sure it would have been even better if I had eaten it while it was fresh and hot. Service was friendly, and my order was prepared in about five minutes. There were a handful of spots to sit inside and some outside seating. Ambiance was super casual (order at the counter and wait for your name to be called type place). I will definitely return again! read more

Pepper Farm Deli - Sandwiches Near Me - Santee, California

Food was good. Had a half sandwich, chips, and a drink for about $11.99. There were flies inside though and the floor needed some sweeping (food particles around the area we sat down). Also the corner of the table we sat at was incredibly sharp. They may want to check some of the tables out. read more

Food is fantastic. So beautifully done. Service is quick and amazing. Ambience is cozy. And you can eat outside. read more

So many delicious options to choose from here! Pretty much have whatever you're in the mood for and everything is going to be good. We got a chicken wrap, shrimp wrap, Asian salad, and turkey sandwich. Everything was great. read more

Wow! Their menu instantly reminded me of Cheesecake Factory's menu...extensive. But honestly, that'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. read more

The bread, meat and toppings were amazing!!! The sandwiches were huge and so fresh! The only negative is, I couldn't stop eating past my normal full stopping point. read more

TL;DR: Found this place on TikTok, it was a great deli spot that really fills their sandwiches for the price you pay. Parking here is super easy since it's located in a big shopping center with abundant spots. I was already in the area and wanted to find a good spot for lunch after seeing this place on TikTok. When you walk in, the process is quick and simple. You order and pay right at two self-serve kiosks. If you order a drink, they have it ready as soon as you pay and will call out your name. The wait time for the food isn't crazy long at all. We waited maybe 10 to 15 minutes total. We didn't really interact with the staff much, so I can't speak on customer service, but they sure do a great job of making good sandwiches. My girlfriend got the Bovine sandwich, and it was really good. It gets a bit messy to eat, but it is jam-packed with meat. I got the roast beef grinder, which was also loaded. The bread on the grinder was pretty tough, but I personally still enjoyed it. Plus, every sandwich comes with a super delicious and crunchy pickle on the side. As for seating, they have a limited amount of space inside, but there is additional seating outside. You can grab takeout like we did, or eat there and they'll serve your meal on actual plates. If I'm in town I'd like to try some of their hot sandwiches or burgers. read more

I always walk past this place and I always see how delicious and beautifully plated customers foods are. So I decided to go check this place out and now it one my favorite places in santee to eat at!! The food is absolutely delicious and tasty. The portions are huge. Definitely can take the rest home or you can share with someone else and get multiple items off the menu to try like I did. The food is fresh and not greasy at all. The service is excellent! Honestly the employees that work there are the best! It was our first time there and we didn't know what to get so we asked a bunch of questions and they were very patient and took their time with us and gave us recommendations on what to get. It was very helpful! They have plenty of seating inside and outside. They have umbrellas outside when it is sunny which is great. They have plenty of parking which is the best. If you haven't been here yet you definitely need to go. Trust me their food is worth it. read more

Pepper Farm Deli - French Fries, green Avocado Goddess, The Cubano Sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - Santee, California

First time here, and overall a good experience. To be honest, I was expecting a traditional deli, the menu is massive- everything from flatbread to lobster roll and just about everything in between. I ordered the filet wrap w tomato basil soup and my friend ordered the Green goddess w gyro and a couple of drinks. The Avocado goddess was hands down the best looking salad I've ever seen, seriously magazine worthy. My wrap and soup were solid as well. The only thing that really stood out to me was the price, the bill close to $60. Is it good? absolutely. Is it the best deli in town. I'd say it feels more like a gourmet sandwich shop than a traditional deli. Quality food but definitely on the pricier side. read more

First time eating here. Apparently it's a popular place. It wasn't all that busy when I got here but after eating it got packed so just be aware. You can order at the register or use their kiosks which are very easy to navigate. There's seating inside and outside and they serve Coke products. The place is well laid out and clean. Now on to the food. I got the Grilled Cheese Double Patty Bacon Cheeseburger. It was served piping hot and looked great. All in all the burger was very good but it's not something I would order again. Just too big making it somewhat tough to eat. You can tell they grind their own meat for the burger but honestly I think it could have used more flavor given what I've had elsewhere. Also, the meat was cooked "well" but was still juicy. Next time I'll try one of the other burger options. Looking at the other orders that people were picking up (sandwiches, fries, flatbread, and salads) they all looked really good. Well prepared and good sized portions. The menu has a lot of variety. I will be back. read more

Pepper Farm Deli - Little Italy - Sandwiches Near Me - Santee, California

Updating my review after visiting again this past weekend. This was my first time having lunch there and it was excellent. I ordered the beet salad with wild-caught salmon and we also tried the Little Italy sandwich. Both were fresh, flavorful, and really well done. The ambiance makes it a great spot to sit and relax for lunch. Crystal was working that day and she truly made the experience stand out. She was incredibly sweet and helpful. She took the time to explain things to us and was genuinely kind and generous with her time. It was a busy Sunday after church, much busier than when I've visited during the week, but she still kept a smile on her face and made sure we were taken care of while also helping everyone else. That kind of service makes a big difference and really adds to the overall experience. Between the great food, welcoming atmosphere, and thoughtful service, it made for a really enjoyable lunch. Crystal really went above and beyond! She deserves a shoutout for making the experience so memorable. I'll definitely be back when I am in the area and hungry. read more

Came here for work lunch and we all tried a few different things. The staff were friendly and immediately greeted us. The Chipotle Chicken Sandwich was pretty large and could have been shared by two people! The flavors were all very good, just a little messy to eat. The Porto vegetarian sandwich was very good, even if you aren't a vegetarian I think you enjoy this! Lastly, the Philly Cheesesteak was full of flavor. None of these sandwiches came with any sides unfortunately, so you should look at sharing a few side options for the table. read more

Ordered the blt for my wife and I got the chopped cheese they were so good, best deli in San Diego definitely will be back!

My wife heard the hype about the Caesar chicken wrap and it did not disappoint. It is the best one that we've had. It has Smokey crispy bacon, grilled chicken, romaine lettuce, tomatoes all wrapped in a grilled flour tortilla. I got the big Italian goomba which was salami, turkey, pickled red onions, tomatoes, shredded iceberg lettuce with a vinegary, mayo, black pepper sauce. The level of acid was such a great balance to the savoriness of the meat. Unfortunately the Dutch crunch bread was just a little too dense for it to be a zero complaints sandwich. Caesar Wrap - 9.1/10 Big Italian Goomba - 7.6/10 read more

They do have inside and outdoor seating. The outside seating has heaters on for when the weather turns cold. I saw they also had Cubanos on the menu and because the French dip was good, I'm eager to try that as well. Def recommend! read more

Eat here today! read more

"A sandwich worth eating!" Upon entering I was greeted by a worker that was cleaning the store windows, we are off to a good start on the cleanliness scale! Cute chairs and tables for patio seating as well as the inside of the deli. I asked the lady working the counter which sub would she recommend and here she did the chicken pesto! She was very sweet and easy to talk to. The deli itself had the perfect music for the atmosphere, the Frank Sinatra and dean martin hit just right. I loved how many options the menu offered but I will say that it is a bit pricey for the food. The sandwich- So hot! I loved that thing this was fresh and crispy. The sauce wasn't too acidic and it had such a good crunch to it. The meat tasted delicious and I loved that the sandwich didn't fall apart when eating it! There's definitely enough to take for leftovers to go home! But I don't recommend reheating it, just doesn't hit the same... Overall I loved this place and been recommending to so many others! Thank you so much for having me and I'll definitely be back!! read more

Food overpriced for what u get. Service - none Ambiance - loud and noisy If u prefer a quiet place to eat, dont come here. Better to get takeout and eat in your car.

So, if u dont mind throwing $20 away to eat your food outside in uncomfortable chairs were the flies congregate, go ahead. read more

Good food, but the guy taking my order was rude. I understand sometimes things get busy, but all it takes is one employee to make it a not so great experience. The food is expensive enough, I don't need someone who's short tempered. It's not like I had a difficult order. Treat people the way you want to be treated read more

Amazing sandwich shop with something for everyone. There were almost too many options actually, I was trying to decide between so many different sandwiches and flatbreads and grilled cheese. I ended up getting the chicken pesto sandwich which was superb. It came with a pickle which I also thoroughly enjoyed. The service was pretty quick, the indoor area was clean and so was the bathroom. They were pretty busy but they were all very nice and helpful. A little pricey for just the sandwich but I'd go again. read more
