Upon arrival, the restaurant is very cute with nice decor & really cool inside. We arrived at the time our sandwiches should've been ready, but we still had to wait 15 minutes. (The restaurant only had us in there & one group walked in after.) we weren't in a rush so we didn't really mind, but be mindful of the long waits if you're on a time crunch. When we finally got our sandwiches, we took them to go & the Lucia's Club was delicious! It was packed with a lot of meat & flavor, a good bite on to grab on the way home. The BCE was just alright, a little too dry for my taste. However, I'd still come back to try more of their signature sandwiches because the club did NOT disappoint!

I wanted to give this Italian deli a try, so I decided to go with their Dagwood Sandwich. When I…read morelooked at the menu for online ordering, I got super confused because they had the Dagwood listed under 3 different sections. 2 of them had a starting price of around $17, while one had a starting price of around $13. I figured I'd go with the $13 one, why not? Then I quickly realized that the ordering system was a whole mess. It gave me the option to customize my sandwich, but some of the required fields didn't make any sense at all. For example, I don't like olives, but it required me to select olives. Then there were 2 separate sections for extra meat and extra ingredients, and those were required too, and both came with additional charges!!! I thought requiring customers to add extra ingredients and charging them extra because of that was totally ridiculous. If I don't want extra meat or extra ingredients, I should be able to leave those options blank and still place my order. But I couldn't proceed to place my order if I didn't select those. I ended up trying to go with the $17 option instead with minimal customization options. I eventually just placed the order, went to the store, and picked it up. As for the sandwich itself, it was pretty standard in size and the quality was decent, but there really wasn't much going on inside. It was basically just bread, meat, and cheese. There weren't even any vegetables! No lettuce whatsoever. I thought that was really weird for a sandwich to be very bare like this, especially given that the final total cost was $19 for a single sandwich from a small deli. I expected a lot more from a sandwich at that price! Again, the sandwich wasn't bad, but I didn't think it was worth $19.

There aren't even basic chips and drinks for sale any more.

The reviews have been pointing me in the direction of their Philly Cheesesteak. I finally had the chance to pay this place a visit today. The place is unassuming for what I dare to say is the best sandwich shop in the East Bay. When I walked in to the liquor store there was no deli counter visible. I asked the gentleman working there if they still sold sandwiches in the evening which he replied, "yes" and pointed to a simple menu. A Philly Cheesesteak came out to $14.99 and he warned me it would take about 20 minutes to prepare. I took my sandwich home and ate it about a hour later and it was still piping hot when I took a bite. Let me just say, that it's one of the best sandwiches I've ever had!

Rob's Zombies is the perfect stop for anyone on the go or looking for a quick break during a road trip. Conveniently located right off Highway 4, it's easy to find and offers a laid-back atmosphere with plenty of seating. A quick tip: their breakfast items are extremely popular and tend to sell out fast--I wasn't lucky enough to get one this time. Instead, I tried the Sausage and Pepper Jack, which comes in a soft, round bread ball filled with a flavorful sausage patty and melted pepper jack cheese. The bread was incredibly soft, and the filling was delicious. There are plenty of other options on the menu, and the pizza really caught my eye--I'll definitely be back to try that next time. The staff is friendly, and the service is quick, making it an ideal stop when you're hungry and in a hurry. Don't miss out on this spot! read more

Growing up schools I went to they had cheese zombies and I never actually tried one until Rob's Zombies. What have I been waiting for is the real question. The first cheese zombie I had was their hot sausage link zombie and it was so good! The cheese was melted perfectly, the bread was so soft and the hot link was just how I like it, spicy! The last few times I have ordered one I got the ham and cheese and again it was a hit. My whole family loves them especially my daughter who is a big fan of both bread and cheese. I have even tried their coffee and it's delicious. Overall very happy with this location and we will have to try there newest location out in Martinez. read more

I originally went out looking for a sausage, egg, and cheese sandwich and Googled "good breakfast…read morenear me." This spot came up, and although my wife and I have driven past it many times, we've never stopped in. Today, I decided to finally give it a try. After looking through the Google photos, I changed my mind and ordered a breakfast plate instead of a sandwich. Parking was a little challenging. I arrived around 11:00 a.m. and had to circle the block a few times before finding a spot directly in front of the diner. When I walked in, I wasn't sure whether I should seat myself or wait to be seated. All of the waitresses appeared busy, so I stood near the entrance. Once she was available, Marianna greeted me. Initially, I wasn't a fan of being asked whether I was picking up food rather than whether I was dining in or taking out, but I quickly realized they may be accustomed to regular customers who already know the process. Since it was my first visit, I explained that I wasn't sure if I should seat myself. Personally, I think a sign near the entrance would be helpful for first-time guests. Since I was dining alone, I chose a seat at the counter and ordered the Sugar Plum Special with cheese grits and sourdough toast. While waiting for my food, I noticed something that concerned me. The staff did not appear to be wearing gloves, and I observed food being handled after touching various surfaces, including condiments, plates, glasses, and trash areas. While I understand that food service relies heavily on proper handwashing practices, I personally felt uncomfortable watching bread being handled directly by hand. I requested that my toast be handled with a utensil instead, and my request was accommodated without issue. When my food arrived, my eggs were cooked exactly as requested--scrambled hard--and the bacon was perfectly crispy. The bacon was a little saltier than I personally prefer, but that's more about my taste than the preparation. Overall, both items were flavorful. Now, let's talk about the grits. I come from a strong Southern background, and we take our grits seriously. The presentation was fantastic. The butter melting on top and the cheese looked absolutely perfect. Unfortunately, the texture wasn't there on the first serving. The grits were noticeably gritty and undercooked. After a couple of bites, I sent them back and requested they be cooked a bit longer. One of the waitresses explained that customers typically need to request the grits "well done." That was surprising to me because I've always believed grits should naturally be cooked until smooth and creamy. In my opinion, that's how they're meant to be served. Thankfully, the second batch was much better. While they still could have been stirred a bit more, the texture improved significantly and was much closer to what I expected. I also want to recognize Marianna for her excellent service. She was accommodating, attentive, and handled my concerns professionally throughout the meal. Overall, I would return. The restaurant has a warm, family-oriented atmosphere and an old-school diner feel that is becoming harder to find these days. It reminded me of the kind of place you'd visit after church on a Sunday morning or somewhere you'd go with your grandparents for a comforting home-cooked meal. While there were a few areas that could be improved, the welcoming environment and friendly service left a positive impression on me.
