Out of 100 and something sandwiches I must have picked the wrong one, I ordered the steak, avocado, and provolone cheese and honestly the steak was flavorless and there was a little too much onions (it overpowered what little flavor the meat had). I'll have to come back and try other sandwiches, it may change my mind about this sandwich shop. Pros: very friendly service, good prices, and the bread is good (like viet sandwich bread). Cons: looks like an office building, so it's very easy to miss, parking is limited, and the place gets packed quickly. read more

Tummy stuffers is the best sandwich shop near ucr. So many choices and the staff is amazing!!!

I have been coming to this place for about a year right now and it hands down has the best sandwiches in all of riverside. For 6 dollars I got a turkey, bacon & avocado sandwich. The sandwich came with avocado, onions, pickles, mayo and tomatoes! I love this place I just wish that it was open later (closes at 4 and on weekends). This place gets busy during lunch time with a lot of people coming from work. Best sandwich place hands down! :) read more

Tummy Stuffer - Turkey, bacon & avocado sandwich with no tomatoes and mustard! - Delis Near Me - Riverside, California

My fiance and my experience at Tummy Stuffer was one not so much for the food, but the connection that the owner and cashiers had with the common clients. It was both of our first times at Tummy Stuffers and we do love supporting the local mom n pop places because their food is usually better then the highly commercialized alternative. If you are looking for a place to get a good pastrami sandwich (definitely not HAT-like), then this is a good place to go, plus their enormous selection of sandwiches to choose from. Their sourdough was very dry and did not seem to hold well as expected of a well-run mom n pop. Aside from that, it's a place we would contribute to again. read more

Tummy Stuffers has a large selection of sandwiches to choose from. The actual restaurant itself is in a business park, but it is facing the street so it isn't hard to find at all. Now to business.. Pro: large selection of sandwiches to choose from, competitive prices, friendly staff, military discount (active & veteran) Con: gets pretty crowded at 12 (for obvious reasons), nothing else that I could see I would give this place a shot again, but I wouldn't try the Philly. They added meat sauce to it, which was kind of weird but I went with it. I'd try a cold sandwich next time. read more

my go-to place if i want good, fresh, made-to-order sandwich... and can't finish a foot-long from subway and 6" isn't enough! i like the portion here... their standard size is 8" which is perfect for me... very friendly and they'll remember you if you go just the 2nd times with special request! i went two days in a roll once, requesting extra jalapinos in my sub and they say 'oh you were here yesterday huh! ms. jalapino!'... i liked that! personal touch! read more

This place is great for lunch. It is a little hard to find because it's in a business area but its on the corner of Iowa & Columbia. I'm a big fan of number 98 on squaw bread. It's turkey, bacon and avocado. Delicious. Definitely a no frills kind of place. It is a place full of regulars. Definitely stop by if you are in the area and are hungry for a sandwich. They have plenty to choose from! The owner is super nice. & the employees are really customer friendly (they remember my order - even reminded me when i forgot to say no mayo) Please remember that they add: tomatos, pickles and onions on the sandwiches... if you do not like... they are more than happy to accommodate your taste buds... just let them know! read more

I work not too far from this little tiny Sandwich place, so of course I'd have to check it out. The sandwiches are good, with a large amount of meat in it, compared to places like Subway. The rolls are store bought, which is expected, but still pretty good. They do seem a little pricey for what you get, but with little to no local competition, they can get away with that. If you order pickles be prepared to find diced pickles on your sandwich, something that still takes some getting used to for me . read more

I have been working in the area for 19 years. I have gone to other places, but none will keep me as addicted as TUMMY STUFFERS. The sandwiches are delicious and you must try their teriyaki bowls. I love them. The owner, MARK. although he may be busy, still finds the time to greet his customers and his cashiers are wonderful. My favorites: the bowls, Tuna sandwich, turkey bacon avocado wraps, Philly steak sandwiches and chicken salad. They rate #1 in my book read more

Personally I think tummy stuffers is a fantastic place to sit down and have a sandwich. The customer service was beyond perfect and everyone here is just happy and thriving with joy and passion. The worker that had served us goes by the name Ron and he truly made my experience explicit and unique and made it very special read more

We Love this Place for our parties, as a corporation these sandwiches are a HIT every time! we ordered around 9:35am and they were ready at 11:30am with all the fixings and etc! good place to order from if your having a HUGE party...thanks Tummy Stuffers you are the REAL!!!!!!!! read more

The BEST sandwich place in riverside hands down!! Everything tastes so fresh and delicious i recommend steak cheese and mushrooms foot long so good !! read more

I would never thought this was a place to eat especially when it is in a business building complex. The sandwich was good and very filling just for the half size! The line gets pretty long during lunch hours between 11-1 anything with mushrooms i think it is good :D read more

The portions are huge! Good prices with daily specials. It is located in a business park and sort of hard to see the sign. I had the turkey avocado special on squaw bread. It was pretty good but I didn't like the chopped up lettuce. The bf had the steak which is a hot sandwich and that was really good. Flavorful and packed with meat. Known for having 101 different sandwiches. I will have to come back and try them all! read more

Delicious. I got the monster sandwich and it was really good and filling. I ate half then saves the second half for later. They don't skimp on ingredients :) I got a good amount of roast beef and turkey. Yummm. Location- this place is hard to find at first because it's not the typical restaurant or deli look from the outside. They are located at office building with black tinted windows and a font that would represent a manufacturing firm. But once you spot it, you'll know where to go next time! read more

Absolutely killer Italian sub! Folks behind the counter are super nice. You will not be disappointed. Give it a try.

Great subs, tons of variety and quick service! This is one of the best places to get a sandwich if you are in the UC Riverside area. My go to is always ham, turkey and swiss. I go for the full 12" roll because their bread is bomb and I can't get enough of it! It is really a highlight of the sandwich. Service is always so fast. What is unique is that they dice thier tomato, onion and (tastes like homemade) pickles for the sandwich. It looked weird the first time I tried it, but I guarantee you that it's perfect for the style sandwich you are getting. Overall just a perfect place to stop and have lunch during a busy day. Did I mention the prices are very reasonable? So good! read more

If you can't get your Tummy Stuffed on the huge selection of over 100 sandwiches to choose from you got problems. I've tried the pastrami and club sandwiches and the bread is always perfect, generous portion of meat, and all for a extremely reasonable price. Not that there is many choices to choose from in Riverside but if you need somewhere for a good quick lunch on your work break, this is the #1 spot. Don't expect anything fancy or Yelpy about this place, they just focus on making quality sandwiches. read more

I do not recommend the salads. I had a large online order for my work. Within that order was 2 tuna salads and 1 chicken salad. We received 1 tuna salad and 2 chicken salads. The avocado was not ripe, so it was un-edible and the chicken was very salty. Also, they use iceberg lettuce, which isn't appetizing. read more

You cannot beat this places food. The bread is awesome, the veggies are fresh and the service is quick. I've been going here for 10 years. Not every day, just sporadically. I used to go a lot when I was in undergrad here at UCR but everytime I'm in R-side I'm tempted to pick up a sub. The prices aren't too bad, its a little on the pricey side for a sandwich (especially when My Hero is down the street). The only knock is that it has limited hours. They cater to the business park that they are in but that hurts us individuals that need a sandwich at odd hours of the day. It's also a little hard to find, you could drive right by it if you didn't know where to look. I think they have signs now but still easy. read more

Staff was super friendly and made the experience even better! Food was filling, fresh, and tasty! The Monster sub was the correct move! Thanks! read more

Tummy Stuffers is a good place to go for lunch for a good sandwich. Everything is fresh however the place isn't the cleanest and probably needs a few repairs. Still a good sandwich... read more

Amazing customer service. Great people and the food is awesome highly recommend to anyone in the area. Truly felt satisfied on the food here

Best meatball subs EVER. Get The Stuffer. It's like an orgasm in your mouth. Ooohhh... the pastrami sandwich is to die for. Parking sucks during lunch time, so be sure to come either before 11:30am or after 1pm. Did I mention they have Pepper Jack??? YUUUMMMM..... read more

This sandwich shop is located in a business park on Iowa. It's easy to miss, and the establishment itself has sort of a nice hole-in-the-wall feel. STEAK SANDWICHES. I freaking love theire steak sandwiches. I don't want to try anything else because their steak sandwiches are so damn good. I like the steak mushroom and cheese sandwich. Also, it is worth mentioning that their 12 inch only costs $1.20 more than their 8 inch. So just get your 12 inch, lol. Also they serve Admiral Green Tea, which I think is far better than Arizona (and I loved Arizona green tea!) STEAK SANDWICH! read more

This is your all around sandwich shop. It doesn't look like much but the variety they offer is great. I went with the turkey/ham on wheat. The bread was soft and prices were great. Definitely can't wait to come back and try more. read more

I was introduced to Tummy Stuffer by my friend who took me here for lunch! It was a great way to try something new outside of the Downtown Riverside area. He told me "this place is quick but have great quality food!" And this place did not disappoint. Prices are affordable (less than $8.00 and it included quality chips and drink), so many choices (sandwich, chips and drink selection), to meet anyone and everyone's cravings! I tried the Mushroom/cheese/steak sandwich and it was delish! My friend got the monster sandwich and it also looked delish...had lot of bacon, which is always a win! Only reason why I couldn't give a 5 star, was because I had to basically wipe down and clean up the table that we sat at. In my opinion, maybe they can get someone to clean up and wipe down the tables. Such a great first time experience, I will definitely come back! read more

Sandwiches are really tasty. Now the establishment needs love. The white walls kill me. I feel like i am in the mental institution from Terminator 2. The art is dull. I tend to just order take out there. It could have a really cool feel if they just had some color. Overall, great food. Dull spot. read more

There has never been a food joint that lives up to its name more than Tummy Stuffer. These sandwiches are huge. HUGE. And delicious. I get the 44 (Steak, meat sauce, cherry peppers, grilled onions and cheese). At first, I was like, "Meat Sauce?! In a Philly Cheesesteak?!" Now, I'm like, "MORE MEAT SAUCE, PLEASE!" It is so good. Everything is fresh. They cook the steak in front of you, and the sandwiches are served piping hot. The service is friendly, and the restaurant is family owned. I'd love to try another sandwich, but I can't bring myself to part with my beloved #44. So. Good. read more

My favorite place for sandwiches. I drive out of my way when I'm anywhere close --- we love it that much. I have the same thing every time -- ham and cheese and I'm picky about the condiments, and they always have it right. My husband orders something different every single time -- and he's never been unhappy with the choice. Everything from the tuna salad to the steak sandwiches are great. I actually leave work 30 minutes early when I work our Riverside branch so I can get here before they close. They are worth the effort. read more

You would never know this deli would be so ridiculously good with where it's located. I was in Riverside picking up samples and did a quick Yelp search. Tummy Stuffer popped up within a mile of where I was. Opened the door and couldn't believe how many people were there dining. College students, families, policemen, and businessmen. We walked right up to the counter. The staff was friendly, helpful and patient as we looked through the extensive menu. Literally something for everyone. My guest got the turkey avocado bacon on rye bread and I got a tuna sandwich with avocado and pepperoncini's. We both are all our lunch. It was fast, fresh, and yummy. I can't wait to go back! read more

Tummy Stuffer - Our yummy sandwiches! In the left with tuna and on the right with turkey avocado bacon. - Delis Near Me - Riverside, California

I have been coming to this place for at least 13 years. This place has the best sandwiches ever made and for reasonable prices. The interior is small, but this place receives great business. The employee are also very nice and fix sandwiches quickly. read more

Good sandwiches! And cashier was awesome kudos for her.... many sandwiches to choose from read more

Tummy Stuffer - Menu - Delis Near Me - Riverside, California

I needed a quick fix for lunch so I came here. I am very strict about my diet lately so I decided to get the salad. They have no description for the salads but do no underestimate them. THEY ARE SO GOOD. The place just list what seems like a boring salad category area without any description so I was pretty scared of what I was going to get. I was hoping for a nice salad with variety of vegetables and that is exactly what I got! - Chicken Breast Salad: Ice berg lettuce, avocado (super fresh), half boiled egg, red cabbage sliced, lots of tomatoes, really good chicken (a lot of chicken too!), carrots, and cucumber. Trust me on this one... If I ate my salad without dressing and I say it's good, it's really good. The ingredients are so fresh and nice but to honest the decor and the interior is pretty outdated. read more

Came here because of the good reviews on Yelp. Got the steak, mushroom, onion sandwich - and it was okay. Better than subway, but it's nothing super amazing. Service was sluggish, but understandable because it's usually busy during the lunch hours they are open. Came in a styrofoam box, for some reason my sandwich was really greasy and it turned soggy near the end. I wouldn't mind eating this if I was invited here with by someone who wanted to come, but probably won't go out of my way to come here to eat. read more

This place has some really good sandwiches! The bread alone is delicious, but the sandwiches taste really fresh. Much better than the big chain sandwich shops. The location is kind of hidden, its in a little business park area so you may miss it at first if your looking for a little restaurant on its own. This place gets pretty packed too, around lunch time expect a line and a full house from people that work in the industrial area around the shop. It's always packed, which reflects how good the food here is! read more

I just had a sense of nostalgia when my friends and i were talking about sandwiches, and i remember this place i used to go to all the times when i was going to UCR at the time. I'm very happy to see that after 7 years, that place is still there, cause their sandwiches were the best. My favorite was the MONSTER, it had everything you wanted in a sandwich... layers of roast beef, ham, turkey, cheese, bacon, and their homemade salsa they put on top. OMG i can till remember the taste of it even today. The place is real chill, the staff are very friendly. It's a cool place you go to eat before class, or after basketball where you want to go somewhere to grub. It's sad this place is only open on weekdays, but who can blame them, cause they're so popular. I've since moved away from there, and the only time i get to go there is on weekends if i get a chance, but they're not open... sad. One day, i will go back and get another monster sandwich, and probably take one to go as well. haha. read more

This place is located in an industrial area (doesn't look ghetto though), so it's pretty tough to spot from the street. It's also only open during lunch hours so take that into consideration if you're planning on visiting. This place has a great selection of subs, all with great meat and fresh veggies. It's a little on the expensive end for a sub (I mean, it's pretty tough to beat subway) but it makes up for it in quality. I use to come here every-so-often when I lived in riverside, it was definitely one of the better food joints around, no doubt. The employees are all really friendly, it wouldn't be a strange sight to see them smiling while taking your order. Definitely recommended if you're in the area. read more

Wow! This place is one of the best sandwich places! I am never going to subway ever again unless Tummy Stuffers is closed. I mean, I think subway sandwiches are awful to begin with, but after trying this place, you will despise subway and their measly 6" subs with tiny slivers of meat. This place gives you 8 inches of sub and is generous with the meat! Take that, subway! The ingredients here are fresh and the bread is really good. If you have no idea what to order, you can't go wrong with any of the options they have listed on their menu board. The Monster is amazing but definitely not meant for one tiny person. Maybe 2 or 3. The place is usually pretty busy during lunch hour, so it's best to come early or a little later. read more

Still one of my favorite sandwich spots around. Use to go here back in the day during college. The quality of the sandwiches has not changed one bit. The bread is soft and delicious. Been to several tummy stuffers and love them all equally across the board. read more
