    I was born and raised in Novato. Not really proud of it, zero culture, boring, but it does have…read moreItalian Delite! I've been eating here since the mid 1990s, happy its still here!F riendly faces, zero ambience, but you're here for the food and affordable prices. In 1996, I was making $4.75/hour California minimum wage. In 2026, its now $17, or even $20 for fast food workings. The fresh, hot, crispy, and toasted sandwiches are always a "Delite"! Prices have increased over the years, but not offensively. My recent Assorted Delite "half" sandwich was $11.50 but still as big and ginormous as I last remembered and plenty of food for one big person like myself. The fresh rolls is toasted perfectly, not burnt, the inner white bread stays fluffy and doughy. There is enough ham, pastrami, and salami proteins to keep you satisfied, and just the right amount lettuce, tomato, and onion. The ingredients are nothing exotic, but somehow this magical delicious combination can't seem to be replicated anywhere else in the world except humble, dull, sleepy Novato California. Why? $11.50 might be seem pricy...but in 1996, I was making $4.75/hour California minimum wage. In 2026, its now $17, or even $20 for fast food workings. 11.50/17 = .67 $4.75 X .67 = $3.18 would be the 1996 inflation adjusted price. I would've found that a fair price back then, and today.

    My hubby and I used to love this place, but Quality of sandwiches has gone down hill over the last…read morecouple years. Won't be going back after today's experience. I ordered a large sandwich extra crispy to go. Dropped a 10% tip in the jar and proceeded to wait for my order. Went back up to confirm I asked for extra crispy, and the guy at the register said I had. When I received my order, I walked out to my car, and squeezed the sandwich to test crispness. Nope. No crunch. Walked back in and said, "I ordered extra crispy and it it's not." The guy said. "You want it crispy?" To which I responded, "yes, that's why I ordered it extra crispy!!!" He said, "ok, I'll make it crispier for you," When it was ready, he said, "here you go, babe." Babe!? I kept my cool but Wtf? You don't know me and I'm not your babe. When I got home, I realized that yes, they had toasted the sub more... along with the tomatoes and lettuce. So I ended up with hot veggies, which made the sides of the sandwich totally soggy. Worst sandwich I can remember having. Thanks for nothing, 'babe.'

Today I had the Waldorff salad, and shared tacos, with my fiance who also had the Tea Leaf salad added tofu. We both loved our meal. So tasty. Last time I had the Blue barn burger and an order of tater tots. Best Burger in town. The staff is so nice, and always accommodating. We sat outside on the patio. It was peaceful.

This is a counter service place and the line can sometimes can take a lot during busy days. They have a lot of great options here for food and a good size kids menu! My wife and I opted for salads on this visit. The cost feels a bit high, but the salads are huge and feel well worth the cost. I had the Thai Chicken salad. I love the dressing on the salad and the crunch from the peanuts and crispy wontons is so good! The chili lime chicken has a nice tangy flavor and the veggies all give a nice, herby flavor. My wife had the Tostada salad, which has a delicious, smoky and sweet flavored dressing. My daughter had their chicken tenders and fries, which she enjoyed. This is a great place for larger groups, and its location on Grant Ave is brings a lot of excitement to this downtown Novato neighborhood.

    The people here are pleasant. Called and ordered for pick up. I specifically said "no oil and…read morevinegar". I'm not a fan of balsamic vinegar. When I picked up the sandwiches, they were leaking through the bag. Correction. Mine was leaking through the bag. The staff member put it in a plastic bag. I took it home, opened up the wrap and it was completely soaked in oil. Through the paper. The sandwich roll was covered in it. Picking it up and eating it was a challenge because it was so oily. There was balsamic vinegar on it as well. I could have eaten it and pushed aside the mistake if it wasn't such a mess. My husband had the hot salami and it didn't have oil on the bun at all. Weird. It won't keep me from coming again, but I will definitely have them repeat "no oil" twice.

    So so happy Tagliaferri's Deli is in Novato. Feels like a true old school Italian deli. Delicious…read moresandwiches, where everything tastes fresh and the portions are generous. Service is great! We love their Dutch Crunch bread and the sandwich options are truly endless. There's also a shop/store with a variety of pastas, wines, cookies, and more. The service is attentive and kind. They can get busy at lunch time so just come ready to be a bit patient, because it's so worth it. There's indoor and outdoor seating. When a lovely day out, sit outside as you can people watch and enjoy the sunshine. The art and vibes in the place are old school, authentic, Italian deli and I'm so glad this is located where I live. Check them out!
