Turkey bacon ranch sandwich

Great sandwich and friendly service! They had everything you would need in the store.

Tri tip Sandwich

Buena vista and Amal's Deli are a perfect park+sandwich combo! Amal and her son were so friendly and the service and ambiance of the store were great. I loved my tri tip sandwich on Dutch crunch I'm definitely coming back for my next picnic, and I love that this store has anything I would need: sandwiches, drinks, frozen food, wine, toiletries, and plenty of ice cream!

Pastrami Sandwich

I was looking online where to find the best chicken noodle soup and they led me to this Deli Shop at Haight Ashbury. Met Amal and she was the sweetest person ever and she made my Pastrami sandwich herself. I ask for her recommendations and I ended up getting the sandwich, the popular, chicken noodle soup and a lasagna. Chicken noodle soup was really good and I never had it like that and it was very interesting combinations of herbs and spices. I 100% recommend visiting this Deli shop, if you're looking for any snack that you can think of, you can probably get it from here. Really neat place, great selection and people are so friendly.

Amal's Deli seems like a corner store, but it's a mediterranean corner store. They have some food items like a corner store and also a fresh deli with mediterranean and american food snacks and bigger dishes. They had 2 grape leaves for $1, a corn dog at $1-2, and a pork eggroll for $1-2 so I paid like $5 for this bunch of fun food. You will not find 2 grape leaves at $1 at many places. They have some other food items that are mediterranean, pizza, gyro, chicken sandwich, and sausage, etc. It's neat and fast. They had a computer screen to click on, but I paid cash this time. I feel like bummy with a $5 bill these days. Also, it's named after George Clooney's wife and it's Lebanese. wink.

Have been here twice and will be back to eat everything else they have haha. Very punk shop. Tiny little space with a cute parklet in front. The workers are very helpful and knowledgeable on their products. Want to come here for more food, grab a bottle of wine next door, and enjoy the night with a friend. I won't say much about the food, just that there is a reason I want to come back for more. Fresh, delicious ingredients. Carefully thought out and brought together for great combinations. Truly curated experience is how I would put it. I really like this shop.

Came here right at 11:30 AM on a Sunday to get their Brunch Focaccia. The shop is filled with…read moreshelves of unique produce and dry goods, giving a sense of wonder and cozy intrigue. I loved seeing all the other goods they had for sale; though they were pricey, the curation seemed very special and done with love and care. There's some seating outside on benches or the patio deck, and the employees were very friendly and easygoing. The day I went, the brunch focaccia was an artichokes, salsa verde, sundried tomatoes, red onion, arugula, and pepper jack focaccia that day, and it was delicious! they grill it fresh in front of you (takes about 5 minutes), and I'd recommend eating it as soon as possible for the best experience. The focaccia is so light and airy with the crispy crust, and their ingredients are so high quality with a symphony of flavors. Would definitely come back again for this, maybe to also try their paninis!

I have been trying to support this place for years. I've lived in the neighborhood for 7 years,…read moreI've bought meat at this location since before this current owner took over the lease from the Fatted calf. But I'm going to warn you against shopping here. 1) I have bought spoiled chicken from here. 2) I have bought various bad cuts of beef that not only fail to justify the premium price but aren't even as good as grocery store meats. 3) Most disturbingly, the sticker price and what they actually charge you is different. I have caught them multiple times so now I know they do this intentionally. 4) Also disturbing, the items on your receipt won't even match the items you buy. I don't know what accounting tricks they are playing but I'm done shopping here. I'm not saying all my shopping experiences are bad. But these bad ones make it not worth it to try again.

There's no better place to get a sandwich than a meat shop. That's what separates San Francisco…read moreMeat Co. You can get a fresh slab of meat or a fresh sandwich loaded with deli meat. I've been here twice now and both visits have been satisfying. At this point I can recommend the Reuben and the Ham & Cheese on the sweet roll. Both sandwiches come loaded with meat and toppings. The bread is toasty and warm when served. Most importantly, everything in the sandwich taste fresh. I think I found my go to sandwich spot near work. Price is similar to most sandwich spots in the area. It's San Francisco so expect around $15-$20 for the sandwich. Luckily both times I've been here I didn't need to wait in line for anything. Service is efficient and the workers are friendly. I will be back for another sandwich!

You start in the back toward the center to place your order, then move to line up on the left side to pick it up and add toppings to hot sandwiches. After that, you bring everything to the front to pay. Quite few people, us included, were a little unsure where to go next. The sandwiches made up for it. I got the tri tip special with garlic butter and swapped the Swiss for pepperjack. The meat was sliced thin and really tender, and the garlic butter a perfect addition. I'm not usually big on sauces, but they have a good variety of house options if that's your thing. We'll definitely be back. I was also happy to see they have another location in San Bruno.
