This place is a gem located just behind the main drag of Sausalito. We got street parking right across the street. My daughter and I came in on a Wednesday around 1pm. We were in the area hoping to get some fresh coastal air and looking for something simple and non-complicated to eat like a sandwich. This was exactly what I needed. This old school deli has an entire wall of refrigerators with every type of drink that fits your needs -water, juices, soda, beer, wine, and everything in between. There are plenty of sandwich options and plenty of refrigerated side dishes available to go with them. The owners were lovely (and patient). My daughter ordered a reuben on dark rye. I ordered pastrami on sliced sourdough. We each took half of the other's and shared a bag of air baked Kettle chips. We initially thought we would take our sandwiches to go and find a spot to eat them on a bench along the water side. However, there were several tables in the back, both indoor and outdoor in the garden. It was a perfect sunny, mild day and it was not terribly busy during this time, so we chose to enjoy our sandwiches there on a table next to open French doors. Five stars for food, service, and location. I'm always happy to support a small, local read more

Headed into Muir Woods National Park for the day and wanted to grab a sandwich for lunch. Was in the area and came across Sausalito Gourmet - lots of sandwiches and side dishes to choose from and lots of snacks / some baked goods. Great spot to grab lunch and they have a cute quiet area to sit out back if you want to eat here. Would recommend if you are looking for a deli styled sandwich - lots of options for the family read more

When you want to escape the hustle and bustle of Downtown Sausalito during tourist season, just a couple of blocks away is the Sausalito Gourmet Delicatessen. It is such a hidden gem and their peaceful back patio transports you miles away from literally the crowds just a few blocks away. The owners and friendly and the gyro was delicious.

Nice little neighborhood place away from all the tourist places. Large sandwich menu. Really nice seating in the back garden. About a ten minute or so walk from the ferry . I had a really good BLT and husband had a ham, turkey and cheese. They toasted the Dutch Crunch roll and it was really good. read more

I love this sandwich shop. Locally owned by a couple, and it's been in business for decades. The sandwiches are fantastic, and the outdoor patio with a water fountain is the perfect area to relax and enjoy your sandwich. I can see why it's been in business so long! They have tons of options including sandwiches , salads, gyros, sodas, and even bottles of wine. I got the gourmet deli sandwich with mortadella and salami. So good! Each sandwich is made with care, so it's not a super quick grab and go place, but the do offer it to-go. The couple making the sandwiches was pleasant. We found parking easily in the surrounding neighborhoods. read more

This is a wonderful old school deli with so many wonderful choices it was hard to choose! Finally settled on a BLT on whole wheat and the Gourmet Special on a french roll. Both were very filling and delicious. We also had a chocolate brownie that was decadent and fudgy. We were helped by the owner who was very nice. He uses an old time cash register and counted back our change to us. It was so refreshing to see someone still do that. We sat in the back garden area and it was beautiful and so quiet, even with others enjoying their meals. I highly recommend this place if you are ever in the area. read more

I had a turkey club on a sourdough roll. Compelled to say that was the best sourdough bread roll I've had in years. Wow! They told the bread was made in-house for the last 51 years. Light an airy on the inside with a deep mahogany color on the outside. Thin fragile and crackly crust. Sourdough lovers bread for sure. The rest of the sandwich was delicious as well. Service was good. Old school delicatessen feel inside and quaint garden eating area with fountain. I'll be back. read more

Walking into this deli feels like walking back in time. It's been family owned since 1975...so almost 50 years! Wow! The original owners, a sweet husband and wife team from Greece, still run it. I imagine it's busy at peak breakfast and lunch time. I stopped in later in the afternoon around 1:30/2:00pm on a weekday and there were just two people ahead of me. Although the setting has an old-timey feel (lots of wood, European memorabilia, and likely the original menu board), the food and treats are fresh and appealing! I ordered a lunch special sandwich to go: prosciutto, mozzarella, tomato, and pesto on toasted ciabatta. Delish! Perfect ratio of ingredients and beautiful, fresh flavors. The deli has a few tables inside and a few more on their pretty back outdoor patio. What a treat and fun discovery. I'll definitely visit again when I'm in the area. Note: it's tucked back from the street and easy to miss if you're not looking for it. Look for it! It's worth it! read more

What a darling little family owned deli in Sausalito! We were drawn to this spot for a quick lunch while walking the Sausalito area. It's a bit off the main area/shoreline, but worth it for this gem. The interior is classic deli vibes, with a large amount of fare for sale, plus a huge drinks wall and a deli. The deli menu is written on a chalk board with tons of different options and offerings. We arrived around lunch time, and there was a line. The service was friendly but moved really slowly - my only reason for docking a star here. It took roughly 30 minutes from waiting in line, getting our order in, paying, and waiting for our sandwiches which felt like a lot. I love the attention to detail they gave each sandwich, but some aspects were not overly efficient. However, the sandwich itself was amazing! They had gluten free bread and I got a classic turkey club with bacon. It hit the spot on a sunny day. We ate in their stunning backyard patio, covered by a gorgeous tree canopy with a water fountain trickling in the background. Vibes 10/10 here - highly recommend eating onsite if you can! read more

If you're looking for a local, mom and pop, neighbor hood favorite do yourself and favor and make this stop!! They had a variety of sandwich options we truly had the hardest time deciding on so we kept it simple. Keeping it simple and having one of our favorite subs blew us away! We had the pleasure to be served by the "Pop" of the store and he surely made our sandwich with love! By far best Tuna Sammy we've had! Also tried the prosciutto and fresh Mozz on their roll and just wow!! If your into deviled eggs they are a must try! Do not expect your traditional flavor, these will taste like nothing you've ever tried and worth it! The location is quiet to swing by and enjoy with a nice book or even a quick pit stop while you're driving through the strip. We look forward to our return back for new Sammy's to try! read more

This is an insanely charming, local, mom and pop delicatessen that is well worth anyone to stop in while in Sausalito. We ended up here based on the (well deserved) Yelp rating, and had no regrets. When you walk in, it's a very cute sandwich shop, that also carries some pre-packaged goodies, chips, and drinks. The menu above the deli is very old school, think handwritten with loads of information. I loved it. You'll wait in a line until it's your turn, then order at the counter and they'll call your order out when it's ready. Seating is mostly outdoors in their lush backyard garden. I had a BLT on dutch crunch (you've gotta get dutch crunch while in the bay area!) and it was delish! My only critique of this place is that if you happen in when it's busy it can be a very long wait to order, and receive your sandwich. The food is great, and if you aren't in a hurry I'd definitely recommend. read more

I'm actually obsessed with this delicatessen. This might've been the best sandwich ever? NBD. This is a very down-to-earth and old school deli with tonssss of home made sides, salads, dips, and sauces, plus a wide array of deli meats and sandwich options. They had endless options of chips, snacks, and drinks that you don't find at other delis often. I think it's family owned because the only employees here was a cute older couple that was taking orders, making sandwiches, and running the place. Their outside space behind their building is absolutely adorable. That's where their seating is. There's fountains, flowers, greenery, and had truly such a nice and nature-y ambiance. Now onto the sandwich. I got the turkey bacon avocado sandwich on toasted nine grain wheat that came with mayo, tomato, and lettuce. I wanted to marry this sandwich. No joke. Every ingredient was so fresh and I loved the bread. I'm usually iffy with mayo but I loved their mayo. I can't explain it, it was just a freaking dang good sandwich. I highlyyyyy recommend this place for a life-changing sandwich! read more

One month after my visit here I am still thinking about my amazing experience here. I came in on a Tuesday afternoon to the most beautiful, historic feeling, cozy and quaint space. The handwritten menu and set up seems so intimate and special. I ordered the pesto sandwich and it was amazing. On fresh sour dough, ugh I could have died and gone to heaven right then. We ate out on the backyard patio. It really is a small family run business specializing in quality and delicious sandwiches. Super happy with my visit here and would absolutely come back. read more

This is the platonic ideal of a classic style sandwich shop. The menu is extensive, the cold case has loads of tasty-looking treats, and they've got every drink you could possibly want (including butterscotch beer, which tastes like drinking an entire roll of Werthers Originals). The sandwiches are beautifully constructed, with just the right ratios of ingredients (and high quality ones, like Molinari cured meats, to boot). The couple that runs the place are lovely, their prices are very good for the quality you're getting and the ambiance (there's a beautiful back patio to complement the jewel box interior of the store) is peak. Get yourself a sandwich here! You won't regret it. read more

Sandwiches is not worthy. Bread is too dry and hard to chew. Over price. Not recommended

Food was excellent. They are truly great people. The greatest people, who know how to read others and decide not to serve those that don't deserve to be served. Great food, atmosphere and service. Will be back. read more

This was one of the most favorite places we ate on our trip to Cali! The quality and freshness of the food was unmatched They offer the most amazing gluten free bread for their sandwiches along with about 10 other bread options. Best baklava my husband had ever eaten!! They make it fresh in house. Plus, it was only a 15 minute drive from the Golden Gate Bridge. read more

Hands down the best deli in nor-cal! It's always on my list of places to stop at when I'm in the Bay Area. I've been going here for about 5 years and the quality never disappoints! The owners are super sweet and always speak with kindness. It can get really busy even on the weekdays so please be patient as it's just the two of them working. It's definitely worth the wait! :) the patio outside is super cute and quaint, they have beautiful flowers out back and a little fountain. You can't beat the taste, location, or vibes :) check it out! read more

The blt sandwich on a French roll was perfection. Has a total mom and pops feel, and cute outdoor seating area.

Was not expecting to be charged $5 for a bottled tea. Ridiculous pricing. "Gourmet" sandwich had a thin layer of meat and nothing special to it at all. Ambiance is nice, but will not be going again. read more

This is such a great spot to grab lunch while in Sausalito! We were on a drive from Napa to SF, and this was a fabulous place to stop. Not only is Sausalito beautiful, but the quaintness of this deli really adds to the charm of the town. There was a bit of a line to wait and get your Sammie, but nothing that was intolerable. I had a really hard time picking what I wanted because they all sounded so fresh and amazing. They have great toppings, condiments, flavors, and brands to really elevate your lunch. I ended up going with the pepper turkey on multigrain, no mayo or tomato. While this isn't the most exciting combo, it was nice to get a fresh, healthy option in while traveling. I also grabbed a bag of chips and a drink and headed outside to their patio to wait for my order. This patio is wonderful! It is cute, quaint, lush, shady, and super comfortable. I'd love to sit out there and work in the sunshine if I was a permanent resident. Highly recommend eating out there. The sandwich was delicious. Again, made with super fresh ingredients and definitely hit the spot. It's a must try! read more

I almost gave this place a 5-star rating! My turkey on Dutch crunch was delicious. The turkey was oven-roasted and piled high on fresh-baked Dutch crunch bread. It came with lettuce, tomato, and a tangy mustard that perfectly complemented the other flavors. The chocolate chip cookie was soft, chewy, and loaded with chocolate chips - the perfect sweet treat. The deli itself has a charming, rustic atmosphere with exposed brick walls and wooden tables. My only complaint was the 30-minute wait to get my food. My client and I didn't mind too much since we had plenty to talk about, but we noticed that the staff seemed a bit disorganized and overwhelmed. Perhaps they were short-staffed that day? Regardless, the food was fantastic and I'd definitely go back again (maybe when I have a bit more time to spare!) read more

This deli is the very essence of what the deli experience should be and rarely is. The fact that it is family-run is probably key to this quality and pride in doing things well. I first discovered this wonderful place when I moved to Sausalito from the City in 1982 and for the six years I lived there, had many occasions to visit, and never once had an experience that was "off" in any way. My favorite sandwich was always turkey and tomato on sliced sourdough until one day when they were out of sourdough and Russian rye was suggested - even better! So glad this deli is still thriving and have kept the cozy jeweled-cave ambience- please don't change... read more

My favorite delicatessen in Southern Marin. So many great sandwich choices. The deli has a wonderful mom-and-pop atmosphere run by the couple Frank and Eve, the long-time owners. The bonus is their lovely patio in back to enjoy your meal. I highly recommend stopping by when visiting Sausalito for an early or late lunch. read more

$62 for three sandwiches, one of which cost $30 on its own due to adding meat?? Wtf are these made up prices? The French roll was hard as a rock and the veggie sandwich had a long gray hair in it. Oh and that was after standing there waiting about 30 minutes despite calling it in a half hour prior to THAT. Cute patio though. read more

Overall- such a fun experience!! It is so cute inside when you walk in. It's very homey and cozy feeling. The service was great and very fast. They made our sandwiches right after taking our order. The sandwiches were freaking bomb. So fresh and pretty big! They have tons of food and drinks to choose from as well as chips and sides galore. They have a cute back patio to enjoy your sandwiches on that has a water fountain and lots of plants. Good vibes. Will definitely be returning!! read more

Great little deli, with tons of Mediterranean stuff! Had a chicken gyro and a beer. Would definitely come back if I'm in the area!

Guy running the front was extremely nice. The deli seems like a hole in the wall but it turns out to be a neighborhood charm. The rear backyard is really nice and comforting. The sandwiches are delicately made. They are really delicious. Definitely try this spot next time you're in the area. Would definitely consider picking up sandwiches here on your way to the Bay Area Discovery Museum. read more
