    The Sausage Special
    Michele T.

    Arrived to work hungry and was craving a breakfast sandwich. After a quick Yelp search, came across Two Cousins Deli. Placed on online order for the Sausage Special (egg, sausage, cheddar) on sourdough ($8.50 with tax). Arrived about 10 minutes later and they were finishing up making the sandwich. It was handed to me hot and definitely fulfilled the craving.

    3 X Crazy (pepper turkey, provolone cheese, bacon, avocado, & spicy mayo) on Dutch crunch- So good!!

    My partner ordered a couple sandwiches for us to-go since he was in the area. I didn't eat mine until maybe 30 min later. I got the "3x Crazy" (pepper turkey, provolone cheese, bacon, avocado, & spicy mayo) on Dutch crunch w/ everything on it. The bread was still crunchy and toasted. Not soggy at all. The ratio of meat to toppings to bread was on point. Bacon was still crispy. Amazing quality! Best sandwich I've had in a long time. My partner loved his as well. So many tasty-sounding options on the menu, it was hard to choose just one, but I can't wait to try others.

    Really tasty sandwiches and friendly crew!! They're very generous with the amount of meat and the toasted Dutch crunch is fantastic.

    I came here after I had some business to do nearby based on the good reviews. Two Cousins Deli is located on a side street off El Camino and has its own small parking lot to its side. There are tables both inside and outside if you want to enjoy your meal on location. There is a grand selection for sandwiches, chips, candy, and beverages. The staff was pretty friendly and able to recommend me a few sandwiches despite the slight language barrier. I was given a ton of recommendations so it wasn't helpful to me personally, but I ended up picking the The God Father on sourdough roll. It seems they have a few regulars or friends of the business who hang out here. There are a lot of different sandwich options, but they're all very slight variations of each other, so I think just go with whatever meats or sauces you prefer typically. I picked The God Father out of curiosity for the garlic butter and pesto spreads. These sandwiches are a bit pricier, being close to twenty bucks after tax, so I had high expectations. As you can see from my sandwich photo, my sandwich innards were 2/3rds pickles, lettuce, onions, and tomato, while the other 1/3rd was the meats. As a result, there was pickle juice all over the sandwich, and it just tasted like a pickle sandwich, so I could not detect any garlic butter or pesto. My mouth did have a very strong garlic odor afterwards, though, so the garlic butter did kick in somewhat. I also did appreciate how finely sliced the vegetables were (except the pickles). The bread was nice and toasted and crunchy and all, but that did not save it from the pickles. For an expensive sandwich, I was disappointed in my lunch this day. There are several better sandwich places within 10 minutes of this place that I'd prefer to go to instead. I don't know how other sandwich photos here show a great meat ratio, but I was not a part of that crowd.

    The "West Roast" is a great choice but there are 30+ other sandwiches available.

    Late Saturday afternoon... no lunch... and I'm starving. I picked up my son from work and he suggested a new sandwich deli he had discovered a week or so ago. We stopped at Two Cousins in Belmont. It's typical of the small sandwich shops you might see in commercial zones that service workers in nearby businesses during the week. As it was late Saturday afternoon, we had the place to ourselves. The menu is very ambitious with more than 30 sandwich choices featuring turkey, chicken, beef and Italian sandwiches. There are also some vegetarian and vegan selections plus eight different breakfast sandwiches served until 10:45 am. My son skipped the menu and ordered a "build your own" sandwich. His late lunch featured double-meat Genoa salami with cheddar cheese on Dutch Crunch. I decided to sample one of the chicken sandwiches and asked for the "West Roast." It is made with chicken, bacon, pepper jack with honey mustard spread on a French roll. This was not a bland sandwich. I could taste the flavor of each ingredient, and the combination of them blending together was immensely satisfying. This was a great sandwich. The dining area was neat, clean and cozy. It looks like it can accommodate 20 or so patrons inside with some seating outside as well. Two Cousins is definitely worth a stop in the late morning or for lunch if you are anywhere near Harbor Boulevard in Belmont. I will be back... soon.

    Sooooo delicious and fresh!!! Perfect amount of meat to topping ratio and very flavorful. I've never had anything bad. Crazy drink selection which is very appreciated.. lots of chip and snack options. Easy online ordering and always ready when I get there. Everyone that always works there/passes my food is so kind!! Two cousins is my Sunday ritual. I'm so lucky to live across from this deli!!

    this small deli serves amazing sandwiches local to Belmont, but with elite service and food, i would make a drive out here from walnut creek any day of the week. i ordered their ham / salami / pepperoni sandwich, filled with protein and veggies alike the ambiance inside is tranquil and neat; in fact, the neighborhood itself is very nice and chill, with Two Cousins Deli close to residential area thats one hell of a sandwich id recommend

    AMAZING 10/10! Loved the sandwiches so much you can taste the quality, went for my brothers birthday and the service was amazing and very kind, great and friendly ambiance. We got the karate kid, let's blaze, and a pastrami, would recommend highly.

    Basil Ribeye Bliss: A Flavor-Packed Thai Fusion Experience Worth the Hype…read more Taste & Glory in San Mateo is an absolute gem for Thai fusion, delivering both incredible food and top-notch customer service. I recently came here with my family and we ordered the basil ribeye, crispy spicy chicken special, tom yum scramble, and grilled chicken sandwich. Every single dish was packed with flavor and beautifully executed, but the basil ribeye truly stole the show. It's a must-try -- perfectly cooked, rich, and bursting with bold, savory flavors that keep you coming back for more. The rest of the dishes were just as impressive, each offering a unique twist that highlights the creativity of their menu. You can really tell they put thought into both the flavors and presentation. Service was warm, attentive, and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. The ambience adds another layer to the experience! It has a lively, energetic vibe that makes it perfect for a fun brunch outing, yet still feels intimate and cozy enough for a romantic date. One thing to note: this place gets busy, especially on weekends. Come early and be prepared for a wait, but trust me, it is WELL worth it. Highly recommend Taste & Glory if you're looking for something flavorful, unique, and consistently delicious. I'll definitely be back!

The eggs on the Benedict were poached perfectly, which I very much appreciate. Not only were they poached perfectly, but the eggs themselves were beautiful. Very fresh with that vibrant bright marigold color. The hollandaise sauce was creamy and delectable. The breakfast burger was amazing! It comes served on Filone bread which I thought went perfect with the burger. This bread is similar to ciabatta. Crusty on the outside, with a good chew on the inside. Firm enough to handle all the contents of the burger, but soft and chewy on the inside. The meat itself, chuck and brisket, was sensational. I'm not the type of person to ever order a burger without cheese but this burger could've definitely stood alone. Melted Monterey Jack, thick slices of bacon, fresh slices of avocado, and a perfectly cooked runny egg were just added bonuses. There was something on this burger that had a slight sweetness. I don't know if it was the samurai sauce that they put on it or the bacon, but it was delicious. I love that. It came served with a light salad tossed in vinaigrette as well. Coffee was served beautifully with a nice frothy head. Service was excellent. Attentive without being overbearing. Our server, Da, was so sweet and made our experience even that much more wonderful. Can't wait to come back. My one gripe was the size of the potatoes that came served with the eggs Benedict and the burger. This is not a cheap place to eat. For two of us to have breakfast with one coffee and an iced tea is $60 before tip. Don't be so chinsy on the tater tots and French fries. 10 tater tots? Come on now. It's not caviar. It's potatoes. I don't need a mountain of them just a decent portion. I almost knocked off a star for that, but everything else, specifically the service, warrants the five stars. Thank you for a wonderful meal and for the great hospitality.

The baked Brie was so gooey and paired well with the crackers, garlic, arugula and fig jam on the plate. It's a lot of fun because you get to put all the toppings on your piece of Brie. The short rib was tender and the sauce was rich, but way too bitter to my liking. The wild mushroom pasta was creamy and delicious, but could be enhanced with a bit of acid. The fried chicken was juicy. It was served with 3 cheese macaroni, corn bread and parsley. I didn't know what to do with the parsley. Overall, the meal looked and sounded better than it tasted. It'll be a while until I come back.

By day, it's warm, welcoming, and family-friendly. You'll see families enjoying dinner, friends catching up over drinks, and locals stopping in for great food and hospitality. But once Friday night hits, the entire atmosphere transforms. The lights dim, the music turns up, the dance floor fills, and the energy becomes something you'd expect to find in a much bigger city. Friday nights bring a fun mix of crowds; from younger groups looking for DJs, dancing, cocktails, and nightlife energy, to older guests enjoying the live music, atmosphere, and social vibe. Honestly, I'm a little older myself and still absolutely love the younger, high-energy scene here. It's fun, welcoming, and never feels out of place no matter your age. That's what makes this place so unique. Everyone fits in and everyone has a great time. Then Saturdays bring a completely different experience with live artists and an incredible variety of music. One weekend you'll hear young country performers getting the crowd singing along, and the next you'll find authentic Irish fiddlers creating that classic pub atmosphere everyone loves. That variety is what keeps people coming back..every weekend offers something different and memorable. The food is outstanding, the beer and cocktail selection is excellent, and the hospitality is second to none. I finally had the chance to meet Molly, the owner, and it's easy to see why this place has built such a loyal following. Her passion for creating a place where everyone feels welcome shows in every detail. From the amazing service to the live entertainment and unforgettable atmosphere, this isn't just another local pub. It's become a destination spot and one of the true nightlife gems in San Carlos.
