    I absolutely love Old Town Deli! It's one of my favorite lunch spots in town. My go-to order is the Southwest Chipotle Chicken Sandwich and it is seriously SO good--perfect flavor with just the right amount of kick. It's also family owned, which makes it even more special. Everyone there is so kind, welcoming, and genuinely helpful every time I come in. You can tell they really care about their customers. And don't leave without trying the cookies--they're amazing and the perfect sweet treat after a sandwich. Highly recommend supporting this local spot! Super cute as well.

    Italian grilled cheese

    Yum! Upon ordering the Italian grilled cheese, the kind cashier excitedly told me that was a great choice. Boy was he right! Perfectly toasted bread loaded with white cheddar, ricotta, goat cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, and garlic. Even without meat, you'll leave full. Flavor was spot on. There's ample seating both indoors and outdoors. I also really like that you can order a 1/2 sandwich for any of their sandwiches if you don't want leftovers. This would've been a great option for me as a traveler as I don't like to have a slew of leftovers to eat. However, you'll definitely want the full sandwich of this delicious masterpiece.

    Such nice & fast service. The sandwich was very tasty & i loved the vinaigrette on it! I wasn't sure about the cranberries but it added a really nice sweetness to it.

    Bbq chicken pizza is bomb!

    This deli is a gem in the middle of our little old town. I wouldn't call it a mere deli. More like a mini gourmet pizzeria plus sandwiches. And the coffee! OMGosh! It's the perfect eatery when visiting the farmers market across the street or shopping in town. My favorite pizza is the pear and Gouda with blue cheese and honey. Drool! But the other pizzas are equally enjoyable. The BBQ chicken is great too. The meatball sandwich is delicious. I enjoy trying everything just to be surprised by all of the flavor bombs.

    Focaccia

    Second time here, stopped specifically to get a sandwich to go, continues to be incredible. I wanted the prosciutto dream but everyone else this weekend also knew it was going to be good, so I got the Italian, and of course it was great. Focaccia is a must. Service was stellar as always makes me feel like my kitchen. They changed the music since I was here last to more 90s, but I'll forgive the switch from ol blue eyes. You HAVE to come to this deli, I will be going every time I'm in Temecula.

    Best sandwich I've had to date since I moved to Temecula. The bun was absolutely amazing and the chicken salad was well put together. The staff were extremely friendly and I appreciate the tables out front!

    Sandwiches were delicious! I got the Whole Farm and loved it. Next time I think I'm going to try the Chicken Pesto, as my friend got that and it looked amazing as well. The sandwiches come with a pickle spear and cookie. They have delicious sweet treats, such as macarons, brownies and cookies. Service was good and the deli was clean. They also have indoor and outdoor seating, although limited.

    Reuben, subbed corn beef for pastrami
    Jackson D.

    I had an extremely good experience at Old Town Deli. From the moment I walked in, everything was top tier. I had a hard time choosing a sandwich because they all sounded amazing, but I went with the Reuben, sub corn beef for pastrami --and wow. Absolute 10/10, hands down the best Reuben I've ever had. The latte deserves its own shoutout too. It's genuinely in the conversation for the best latte I've ever had, which I don't say lightly. The owner, Lance, was incredibly hospitable and kind. He went above and beyond, even reaching out to a personal friend to help me source some high-quality meats and cheeses I originally came in looking for. That level of care and customer service is rare these days. Overall, this place is a must-visit. Do yourself a favor--grab a coffee, order a sandwich, and transcend into paradise after the first bite. I'll definitely be back.

    I came here to try their pizza and sandwiches. I got their Portobello mushroom pizza ($13.75), The Mar ($14.25), and Italian ($15.35). The Mar looked burnt but the bread was fine, it held up well and had a nice chew. The Mar is a tuna sandwich with capers, celery, white onions, lettuce, Havarti cheese, chopped cucumbers and tomatoes. It's a bit dry even with the garlic aioli but the tuna was well seasoned. The Italian came with sopressata, mortadella, genoa salami, provolone cheese, olive tapenade, tomatoes, onions, and roasted garlic and red pepper aioli. The sandwich had plenty of filling and was not drowning in sauce and the olive tapenade was not overpowering the other flavors. The mushroom pizza is a small size, good for 2-3 people. Very strong smell of goat cheese and garlic oil. It was filled with portobello, mushrooms, red onions, provolone, and garlic honey drizzled on top. The crust was thick and tasted plain. They have a stamp card, the staff is nice. There's a few tables inside. They have a small parking lot.

    Reuben

    Wow, a totally decent sandwich at this small but mighty deli off 6th St. Easy to park but if full, park in the lot on north side of 6th street. Very short walk to the Deli. Menu has it all for any palette - check it out here on Yelp. I went straight for the Reuben which has their house made sauerkraut and house made Russian dressing. That made my decision right then and there, and it proved to make one great Reuben! Marbled rye was toasted perfectly. Meat was thinly sliced and very tender with ample kraut which totally makes this a stand out sandwich. The Russian Dressing adds just the right kick of horseradish and spice - if you can't handle the spice, just asked for it on the side but for God's sake don't skip it. It will be difficult to order a different sandwich with one this good! Service was delightful, warm and friendly. I'll be back.

    Rueben sandwich.  So fresh!
    Denise H.

    This 12-Inch Toasted Beast Just Executed My Sad Spinach & Nut Butter Smoothie Diet -- And I'm Not…read moreEven Pressing Charges Temecula, I rolled in a starving 6'4" disaster who's been choking down spinach-and-nut-butter smoothies like a hostage for weeks. Rockin' Jay's looked at my weak soul and said "bet" -- then saved it in the best way possible. Counter girl hit me with a smile so bright I almost reached for sunglasses. The entire all-female crew was straight beast-mode at the open sandwich bar, slinging subs like they were on a mission from the sandwich gods. Atmosphere? Spacious as hell, proper New York deli that moonlights as a 70s rock dive -- screaming reds and greens, green booths, wooden tables, tiled floors, the whole retro package you see in the pics. The playlist was gloriously all over the place in the best way -- Contemporary Christian one minute, 2019 pop bangers the next, basically spanning six decades of straight fire. "Listen to your heart" came on and I damn near did while they built my baby. Every single pick was gold though. I ordered the 12" Capicola & Provolone ($16.69). I yelled "the works -- no mustard, drown me in onions and olives." They dropped an absolute beast of a sandwich... and it came perfectly toasted straight out the gate the way it should be. No sad "can you toast this?" negotiation. Golden, crunchy bread that cracks like it owes you money. Meat stacked stupid high, provolone doing its melty thing, then they buried the whole thing under an avalanche of fresh, snapping shredded lettuce and threw in those glossy peppers on the side like a mic drop. This thing is ridiculously messy -- oil dripping, lettuce flying, pure delicious chaos in every bite. Pro tip: there's no napkin dispenser at the tables, so you gotta go full scavenger hunt by the self-serve soda machine to grab your own stack. Worth every greasy finger and napkin raid. It fed this giant for two meals and left me still full, slightly greasy, and weirdly emotional. My spinach smoothie PTSD? Cured. If your diet has been as depressing as mine, stop torturing yourself and drag your weak ass here immediately. Friendly as can be, killer vibe, and subs that actually deliver. Tell 'em the tall smoothie refugee sent you. I'm claiming a booth next week and bringing stretchy pants... and maybe my own napkin stash.

    Always my favorite turkey subs, never fails. Honestly never had another turkey sub that beats…read moreRockn' Jay's. And so consistently good is important, never fails. It feels true to an Italian sub restaurant when you walk in and the wait isn't usually bad either. I like to mobile order for pick up because it can get especially busy for lunch.
