The sandwich is a great taste. They really put the work into it. They are dinner sincere, but service needs to improve. I would rather that they edit their menu and just put all the costs into the price. Currently, there are too many surcharges. This seems to be an issue in restaurants of the area. read more

Great sandwich spot to go in Pacifica. Ray the owner is down to earth and will always greet you with a smile. His family is there to help out and are wonderful people. I really enjoyed the BBQ beef sandwich. It was quite tasty. Lots of tables available and the place is tidy. Great customer service with a smile! read more

So good. Was in town and looking for a good sandwich and of course my fellow yelpers did not disappoint. This place has a vast menu even for a non meat eater like myself. The veggie Philly was so good and potato salad was too. Great service, plenty of parking, priced well for quantity and quality. Would definitely recommend. I'll be back when I'm back in town. read more

Located in a strip mall in a rather isolated part of Pacifica, it was hard to find. It is hidden inside a mall that looks abandoned. A small deli that looks family owned, the server was very pleasant. We ordered a special pastrami sandwich. The prices on the board are not accurate as there is a small sign by the register that the prices for sandwiches are $2 more than listed. Thus the photos of prices are not accurate and is thus misleading. The sandwich was good and spicy and a good value. read more

Apologies to Upper Crust for taking so long to write this review. Upper Crust is a local deli that we have been going to since my oldest kids were in high school. Our favorites are the TN Tiger Special, Philly Cheesesteak, and Stadium Burger. An added plus is you can get curly fries with your sandwich. read more

We thought to try something new. Well items where OK, if that as a sandwich shop, is what you're shooting for, OK food, seem to lack passion and substance and I order my food no onions and they didn't have onions on it, but it might as well have because the vegetables (and I think it's a tomato because, I had no lettuce) taste like onion and has that flavor in my food.

I. LOVE. THIS. DELI. I went to Upper Crust a ton over the summer. I got a great recommendation from my boss to go get sandwiches from here and that recommendation did not disappoint. I told myself I'd try every sandwich on the menu, but of course they just kept tasting so good that I'd try each one twice! So, I'm about a third of the way through the list right now and I'm excited to keep trying them all. read more

We ordered the Philly Cheese Steak, Italian Meatball, Curly Fries, one bag of chips, and Hot Dog for lunch. Let me just say for the amount of food you get, the price is so cheap. Everything was about $32! The curly fries were crispy and the Philly Cheese Steak Sandwich was so flavorful. The Italian Meatball Sandwich tasted like you were putting spaghetti in your mouth except in sandwich form. Great after hiking :) read more

Tucked in the deeper end of Pacifica, I never know this place existed. Usually I just go to Colombo's. We went here around 1pm on a Saturday and the line suddenly became long after we placed our order. I like the hot sandwiches selection that they have. I got the chicken ranch melt. My bf got the philly cheese steak. It takes 10-15 minutes to get our sandwiches. Our sandwiches looked really yummy, however the chicken ranch melt needs salt (or more flavor in general). I think the problem is that the bacon isn't salty. I need to ask for a bottle of Tabasco to spice my sandwich a bit. The philly cheese steak tastes better. Will go back to try other stuff! read more

So I lived on the east coast where making meatball subs is an art form. I have been in California for more than 25 years. At one point in the late 90s I found an awesome meatball sub near Lake Merced, but the owner moved to the Embarcadero cause of the better foot traffic and since then I have been searching, and frequently disappointed. But not today. Today we discovered the Upper Crust Deli. I ordered the Italian meatball sandwiches and did not raise my hopes up, but when we ate them we were amazed at how good they were. Huge meatballs, smothered in marinara sauce and slices of cheese. The bread was toasted and crunchy. Serious yum!!! read more

This review is long overdue because this is hands down the best deli in Pacifica. Prices are great but the food is even better. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu, but the burgers are far better than anywhere else you will find in Pacifica. Owner has been the same owner for forever so definitely come here if you want to support a local business and get an amazing meal while you're at it. read more

After reading the rave reviews, we both had the philly cheese steak sandwich. Having lived in the Philadelphia area for years, this sandwich did not disappoint. The meat was tender, and the other ingredients (onions, green and red bell peppers, cheese, etc.) added to a great flavor. We will have to go back and try the other sandwiches and see if they are as worthy as the philly cheese steak sandwich. read more

I've ordered multiple times from this deli over DoorDash and the order always seems to be wrong. Today I ordered three items and all three were prepared incorrectly. I ordered a bagel with cream cheese and avocado...it arrived with no avocado! I also ordered a BLT sandwich and wrote in the special instructions "PLEASE ADD AVOCADO", they adjusted the cost of my sandwich upward because if the added avocado...unfortunately, when it was delivered NO AVOCADO! Finally, I also ordered a beef and cheese piroshki (please do not heat) and it came HEATED! This was not the first time they got things wrong so I will not be ordering from them again.

Update 03/10/19: i would still give this place a solid 3 stars. Its not great but just ok. Me and my wife come here every saturday for a avacado / cream cheese bagel. It really is the best value in town, but they never keep the bagel selection stocked, its not from being busy either i just think they under order. For the price though they still keep me coming back even if i never get the garlic bagel i want. I used to come here for thier grill menu off and on but stopped because thier steak fries which used to be really fresh & tasty got substituted for some really mediocre frozen Fries. Sometimes I come here for lunch and order a sandwich though. My favorites are: the vegetarian, the two bridges, the eggplant delight, and the terra nova tiger! I would not reccomend thier potato salad, chicken salad or thier egg salad. On three occasions i have had shells in thier egg salad which was gross so i stopped ordering it. Thier potato salad does not taste like it is made in house and always tastes old, plus thier chicken salad never tastes fresh either. This is a great lunch spot to come to though and even with the recent price increase it is one of the cheapest places to get a halfway decent sandwhich! read more

Came out on a sizing plate, meat was super soft and tender, and the onions were a nice touch. Brisket was soli but nothing too special. I wish the portion was a little bigger but at least it came with a big mound of rice. Lumpia was really good. I've never had a bad lumpia luckily. These were some of the best I've tried.

At which point we had to get the food to go. The restaurant after they were asked comped a little, but were not very apologetic about the wait just saying their wait staff were busy. So it seems like they may need to invest in more waiters. This was made all the more frustrating because it was one of my kids birthdays, which we put in our reservation note, but nothing was done to make this in any way feel special or accommodating. Overall, if you are going for the atmosphere and to have dinner, I think it is a nice restaurant given the views. But if you took this away, I would say the food and service are not up to standard.

There are only 2 other customers in the store who ordered right before me. So they made 3 sandwitches in 40 minutes with 3 people working behind the counter that I could see. The sandwitch is great but the wait wasn't worth it when I was trying to grab a quick sandwich. Should have stayed at Safeway.

I live in the East Bay, so I'd probably be eating here more often if I were closer. I've tried 3 sandwiches so far: Flying Dutchman on sourdough, Fogbuster on dutch crunch and the pastrami on sourdough. Each one is a long & hefty - easily a pound - and the breads are fresh and really hug the ingredients. For my tastebuds, the chipotle sauce and jalapenos are too hot, but I LOVE the garlic spread and all the other fixins complement the meat. Looking forward to trying a different one on my next visit!

Located in a quiet neighborhood in South SF, the deli is unassuming, but loaded with flavorful sandwich combinations. I've tried a couple of their sandwiches on separate occasions and I'm always surprised by the deliciousness and affordability of the food. The service is quick and the staff is always helpful. You can tell the owners take a lot of pride in the food- all the ingredients are fresh and each sandwich tastes intentional- no frozen energy at all.

I was in the area for work, and I needed something quick and easy as I was hopping from one biotech site to the next. This shop was conveniently nearby and free parking wasn't difficult to find (sufficient street parking + nearby neighborhood parking). The menu is pretty straightforward, offering a variety of basic and specialty sandwiches. Most of the basic sandwiches (the one meat options with standard toppings) were less than $10!! I opted for one of those sandwiches, getting the turkey sandwich on dutch crunch. From the cross-section of the sandwich, you can tell this is indeed a hearty sandwich. The quantity of meat they provide for the price is plentiful, and the ingredients making the sandwich all tasted fresh. The service was fast and friendly overall. There's no seating inside or outside, so I ended up eating this in my car. But for this price and quality, I'd do this again any day.

We ordered the cheesesteak, the Giants Burger, fries, and a chocolate milkshake. The cheesesteak was absolutely delicious--packed with flavor and cooked just right. The fries were perfectly crispy and seasoned, making them the perfect side. The chocolate milkshake was one of the highlights of the meal. They make it with Mitchell's Ice Cream, and if you're from the Bay Area, you already know that's a huge plus. It was extra thick, rich, and creamy--exactly how a great milkshake should be. The Giants Burger was another standout. We asked for it medium, and it came out perfectly cooked. The burger was juicy, flavorful, and everything you'd want from a quality burger. Overall, this place exceeded my expectations. Great food, fast service, and generous portions in a laid-back atmosphere. If you're craving a quality burger, cheesesteak, or milkshake, Big Mouth Burger is definitely worth checking out. Easy 10/10--I'll definitely be coming back.

It was also slightly on the drier side, but the coleslaw served alongside helped balance things out nicely and added some freshness to the meal.

Overall, it's a convenient spot for a quick burger, especially if you're in the area and looking for something simple and satisfying.

The meat was generous and the horseradish came through clearly, giving it a solid kick, though it built up to the point where it started to overpower rather than complement. My bigger issue was the bread. For a French dip to work, you need a roll that yields when it meets the au jus, and this one was too firm to do that job right. I'd want something softer, ideally sourdough. Probably won't reorder it, but I appreciate that they offer it. My coworker went with the minestrone and a side of bread. He said it was decent but needed a little salt to get there. Service held steady from my last visit, which is always good to see. One small hiccup: the QR code for ordering had expired, but staff caught it immediately and handled it without making it a thing. Dropping from five stars to four this time around. Everything that made the first visit strong is still here, but the food itself didn't quite land the same way.

I came here with my cousin who wouldn't stop raving about this sandwich I "had to try". So he, my kids, and I took a drive. Walking in, I really appreciated the cleanliness of the place. They also had a really cool floor that looked like you were standing on the beach. Grade: A The service was great! The person who took my order was patient and very helpful when I was trying to figure out food for my son. I didn't know that they also served breakfast items until noon. I ordered the #27 Nor Cal, a kid's burger for my daughter, and so thankful they offered pancakes for my son. Service grade: A Let's get started on the main attraction for me...the #27 NorCal. There are so many choices on the menu that I really want to highlight how great this one is! I ordered it with Dutch crunch per recommendation from my cousin. The NorCal comes with chicken, teriyaki, peanut sauce, pepper jack cheese, mayo, onions, sprouts, and tomatoes. Yes, peanut sauce. The bread was toasted to perfection and soaked up the sauciness. I'm the first to admit that my cousin was 100% right! I really loved this sandwich. The flavors and quality were off the charts. This sandwich easily goes into my top 5 all-time. Wow! Grade: A+ I really appreciated that they have a kids menu! My son had the pancakes. He usually complains anywhere we go, but he actually turned to me and said that he liked these pancakes. I picked one up and I must saw they were thick, fluffy, and delicious. The fact that my son was happy, made our visit all the more better. Grade: A My daughter had the kid's cheeseburger. The burger was a 1/4 lb and came with a generous portion of fries. The French fries were crispy on the outside and perfectly seasoned. The French roll used for the burger may be the best French roll I've had. (Of course I had to try it) haha The outer part had an easy chew and the inner part was like a pillow. I only tried the bread, but my daughter was overall content. The cheeseburger was a good size for her. Things that I want to try next time include their sourdough bread that looked fantastic, their flan, and this bbq beef sandwich that looked insane! There are also a few other sandwiches that looked good on the menu...chicken marinara and provolone, a honey mustard one, and the other was a California club. I'm still thinking about my sandwich a day later so it may take a few visits before trying others. Apparently this spot is a not-so-hidden gem to others as while we were there, the place filled up fast! When we were leaving, a line had formed and the staff readily took care of everyone. I guess it's a known spot. Gherkin's in Montara will be a must-stop any time I'm remotely near it if not even at home...it's worth the drive! Thank you Gherkin's!

One thing to know: avoid the lunchtime rush if you're in a hurry. It gets busy, and with only two people working, the hot sandwiches can take a little while to come out. That said, the service was friendly . The sandwiches are huge--which is exactly what you'd hope for when you're paying $16-$20. I ordered the Go Green sandwich and added bacon. It was delicious, although I would have liked a little more pesto. Even so, it was filling enough that I had it for both lunch and dinner. I also picked up sandwiches for four other people, and everyone enjoyed theirs. If you're a sandwich lover and find yourself in the area, Gherkins is definitely worth checking out. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm nearby.
