    Not impressive looking, but a damn tasty sandwich...
    Ty S.

    "Mmm... That is a tasty sandwich... Usually I can't get'em cuz my girlfriend is a vegetarian, which makes me one too...but I do love the taste of a good sandwich" Eating "The Melt" sandwich here, makes me think it was like Jules biting into that Big Kahuna burger...always wondering how good that burger was... But short version...the bread...Star of the show. Not too thick, just crispy outside and soft inside, but most importantly the right amount of bread ration to sandwich fillings, 50% or less. It looks relatively small and unimpressive at first, but hot damn, so much flavor going on! Super glad I stopped by randomly!

    Tri Tip French Dip - DELICIOUS but so so cheesy
    Amanda L.

    This was super good food. Delicious meat, the bread was so fresh and has great texture. I really liked the sweet potato fries but the Mac and cheese while good wasn't my favorite. It was more soupy than I wanted. The sandwich had a ton of cheese but it was delicious all the same.

    Chicken Chipotle Sandwich
    Jacqueline Z.

    Solid sandwich place in Mountain View with excellent service! Came here to pick up sandwiches to eat on a hike. I ordered the Chipotle Chicken Sandwich.. and wow, they really do know how to make a sandwich spicy but flavorful! Be prepared for it to be a little messy. I like that you can choose the bread to get it on as well; I got it on sourdough, but they have other options like dutch crunch! I do wish the sandwich had a bit more of the other toppings, but it was still delicious nonetheless. When we checked out, they also gave us 3 cookies on the house: 1 chocolate chip and 2 peanut butter cookies. Super nice of them and showed me that they cared for their customers. I'd love to try some of their other sandwich options next time I'm back!

    Don's Original Tri-Tip
    Mark T.

    3/13/24 The Don's Deli 2105 Old Middlefield Rd Mountain View, CA 94043 I was in the area so I stopped in at around noon on a Wednesday. It's a small sandwich shop in a strip mall at the corner of Rengstorff and Old Middlefield Way. Parking was okay for the small mall with two rows of spaces. It was busy with many people waiting to pick up their orders. Don't plan on eating in, I counted 7 chairs for the 3 small tables. I ordered Don's Original Tri-Tip on Sour Dough. The sandwich was hefty with a good amount of thinly sliced beef with a subtle teriyaki flavor. The quality of the meat was good with no fat and tender (for Tri-Tip). It was a little chewy but I expected that. It was soaked with dressing and messy, don't attempt to eat in your car. You order and pay at the register and wait for your name to be called. The sandwich was tasty and a good value. It's repeatable.

    Falafel Salad
    Kat C.

    Long day traveling and we were hungry. My belly is being loud so we stopped by The Don's Deli We entered and were warmly greeted. The insides aren't fancy but its clean without being sterile. The menu is on the wall and east to read. This so important when you are trying to function on three hours sleep Back to the menu- So many options to try and all sounded delicious. I opted for the falafel salad because we also had dinner plans. So glad i did. The salad was large- i couldn't finish it. I really appreciated the dressing on the side. The falafels were crisp on outside and fluffy on inside. Quite flavorful. The dressing i selected was cilantro lime and we also got a sample of spicy ranch plus another one i can't recall the name of. Really good stuff The sandwiches looked tasty two but my son and husband scarfed them down. Definitely worth returning to

    Chick Chick Curry with cilantro lime ranch Assorted Cookie Daily special sandwich: Horsing around w vegan chicken nuggets with fire sauce
    Priya S.

    Amazing and unique sandwiches! Fresh, pretty quick service and super filling loaded up w a variety of toppings. Definitely worth the price point. Dutch crunch bread was really good, crunchy and soft, and the fire sauce in the chick chick curry was spicy. Would recommend the cilantro lime ranch to cool it down and a tangy kick! Cookie was great too- shout out to the location for the cookie on the house :) Few tables in the shop to dine in, would def recommend picking it up and taking a sandwich from here on picnic!!

    Sweet Potato Fries
    Quoc H.

    Takeout order: 7/10 Chicken Caesar Salad $11.49 - average Caesar salad with rotisserie chicken meat. Chicken was juicy, shredded, and pretty similar to Costco chicken. Cheese and lettuce were fresh. Balsamic vinaigrette was actually really good. Not too sour and sweet here. 7/10 Sweet potato fries $5.49 - average fries but expensive for price! Came soggy in container but I like that they were large cut.

    Rossanna L.

    They have the ULTIMATE SANDWICH in the area. Fresh bread, right amount of mayo, avocado, lettuce, tomato, and onion. I also order the Caesar salad but it's just ok. The service is good and fast. But no restroom at the deli so I have to go Nextdoor to order a bag of chip and use the restroom there.

There's a beautiful outdoor area in the back with tons of tables. Even though it was super busy, we still had our choice of a few tables, and the foliage/patio umbrellas make it nice and shady. Our food was also delicious! We got: Prosciutto and egg sandwich - eggs were super light and fluffy, and the sandwich was well balanced and cheesy too! Fat and fluffy French toast - such a generous portion and the berries and whipped cream were so yummy! The toast itself had crispy edges and was super fluffy! They have such a large menu too and I'll definitely be back to try more!

Mid week brunch meant a quieter atmosphere and open seating. After perusing the menu we ordered at the counter before sitting at a table after picking up utensils and water. We ordered Fambrini's Breakfast, Brie & Mushroom Omelette, Crab Omelette, and shares the Lotus Biscoff Pancakes. Everyone loved their egg platters. The eggs were perfectly light and fluffy. I generally avoid omelettes getting scrambles instead because restaurants tend to overcook the eggs. Our dishes were prepared with quality and flavor in mind. I personally had the crab omelette and left no crumbs behind. The potatoes were well seasoned and wish I had enough room in my tummy to finish them off! The drip coffee was bold and delicious not watered down at all! Finally, we shared the 2 stack biscoff pancakes for a sweet finish. The pancakes were bouncy with biscoff sauce and a mound of whipped cream. This was mouth wateringly delicious. I don't have much of a sweet tooth but this was so yummy. This isn't a traditional sit down service but counter staff were friendly and efficient. There is a small parking lot off to the side and there is indoor and patio seating. Come by for a meal and you won't be disappointed! I wish I lived closer so I could taste the rest of their meal. Kudos and thanks for an awesome meal!

San Jose certainly has its share of local banh mi gems, but I jokingly told the staff at the front counter that I'm surprised they haven't opened a location in San Jose to serve the Vietnamese community there, too! Truthfully, I just want them closer to me so I don't have to make the drive. :P I got a large combo of SaiGon's Signature which was the classic cold cut sandwich with Peach Strawberry fruit tea. The first thing that immediately struck me upon first bite was the ASMR-worthy crunch of the baguette with a soft, pillowy chew for the interior. You can tell the bread is made with care, and for me, great banh mi always starts with great bread. The fillings were just as enjoyable. While I thought the protein could have used a touch more seasoning, it didn't take away from the overall quality or experience. This is the flavor profile I still expect from a cold cut sandwich. There was a healthy slathering of pate with just the right amount of pickled vegetables to bring in that brightness to balance it out. I bought a large sandwich with the intention to bring the other half home, but that was a total failure. Both the hubby and I ended up eating our entire sandwiches there! Oh, and my fruit tea was yummy and refreshing! Can't make it to East San Jose? Saigon Breadfast is a great alternative. It's absolutely worth giving them a try!

    Grabbed lunch at Sourdough & Co. yesterday and ended up with a sandwich that totally hit the spot…read more I went with the Pastrami Turkey and was pleasantly surprised by how flavorful it was. The sourdough was definitely the highlight. It had that perfect texture with a soft inside, a little chew, and just enough tangy flavor to make the whole sandwich taste even better. The pastrami brought a rich, savory kick while the turkey kept everything light enough that it did not feel overly filling. Everything tasted fresh and nicely balanced. I was halfway through before it even crossed my mind to snap a photo, which probably says enough on its own. It is the kind of straightforward comfort food that really satisfies when you are craving a good sandwich. Service was quick and efficient too, which makes this an easy choice for a fast lunch stop. The shop itself has a simple deli stop , nothing over the top, but it was clean and well kept.

    I love me some good ol' sourdough so when Sourdough & Co. became the lunch recommendation, I…read morecouldn't say no. Breads are baked fresh in house and the menu offerings consist of: handcrafted sandwiches, soup, salads, flatbreads, and even has a kid's menu. Purchases: * HAM & TURKEY [on honey wheat bread] * PASTRAMI REUBEN [on sourdough] Sandwiches are made on sourdough bread by default and includes house spread, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, mustard, & cheese. Customizations are welcome. Sandwiches were good and very filling. The only complaint on my end was the shredded lettuce that made for messy eating- I would have preferred whole leaves. Honey wheat isn't recommended if you plan on eating your sandwich later- this bread is softer and will become soggy quite quickly. 4 stars. The bread to protein ration is fair, food is tasty, and the staff was kind. I'd say this was a good first experience.
