Had lunch TWICE in two days at Anna's Delicious sandwiches Great service Perfect Deli atmosphere read more

We eat here way too much but just can't stop. It's so good! Always. Our go to... the corned beef Rueben on marble and the Surfer. Simple but outstanding every time. And, you can order half sandwiches.... If you both order half sandwiches, two things will happen.... You'll each have half the calories And the cost will be about $14/$15 for both meals. But saving money isn't why we keep coming back Great food Good service Place is clean Heck yea ! read more

My favorite sandwich here is the Surfer on marbled rye. With a pickle and chips? Always a win. Maybe I should go back this weekend for lunch. 27.01.2026 read more

Whenever I visit my sister in Sarasota and my tummy growls, two words immediately pop into my mind: Surfer. Sandwich. Anna's Deli is a local staple I had the pleasure of discovering this year, and when I tell you I should really start billing them for this sandwich living rent free in my mind 24/7 -- I'm serious! This sandwich is a simple concept: ham, turkey, Swiss, cucumbers, and Anna's sauce on marble rye. Somehow, though, it manages to be so insanely delicious I just have to eat the massive thing in one sitting every time! Beyond having the world's best beach sandwich, Anna's Deli is absolutely adorable on the inside, giving authentically retro vibes calling back to a time before cell phones and having to pay for beach parking. The staff are always friendly and kind, even when I once showed up 15 minutes before they closed (sorry about that! I desperately needed my fix). read more

Adequate at best. Nothing special. The problem is little completion. I got a Rueben recently and there was surprisingly little meat in the sandwich. I did say I like sauerkraut but I ended up paying for a sauerkraut sandwich with a drop of meat. I've been here a good amount of times over ten years. Never been impressed.and the tip jar is insulting given the value and experience. read more

Lunch today was our first time at Anna's Deli! I had the surfer sandwich which was ham, turkey, cheese and cucumber with their sauce. It's a small space that is extremely popular but we nabbed the corner table in the back, which was perfect for visiting! The service was order at the front and then they call out your name! Super fast!! Everything was fresh and delicious! There are plenty of food choices between sandwiches-hot and cold, soups and salads! A true deli! I give it a 10/10! read more

Anna's Deli has a very good reputation in the area. I decided to try the famous sandwiches and after my experiences, I am not quite sure what the hype is about. I have tried The Surfer and The Villager. When you order one of their signature sandwiches, be sure to ask for any toppings you want such as lettuce, tomato, onion etc. It seems that their signature sandwiches only come with one topping. With that said, the sandwiches are very good. They source very good bread which is the most important part of a sandwich. Their cold cuts are sliced thin. The sandwich comes with some kind of mayo mustard mixture which is very good, but I don't think they tell you that it comes with it. The restaurant is packed from 11:30-1:30 with people coming for lunch. There are plenty of seats but almost none available during that time. When you walk in, there is a small line to the right where you will wait to place an order. Overall, I would recommend trying the food here however, I feel that it is overpriced. I ordered a sandwich, a side of potato salad and a drink which cost $17. That is too much for what is simply a cold cut sandwich. read more

The staff is amazing! They are friendly and greet customers as they come in. The restaurant is not large but the tables are always clean. My go to is the surfer - delicious.

My daughter recommended Anna's and I couldn't be happier. Had a warm Italian sub that was so fresh and delicious. All the sandwiches coming from the kitchen looked amazing and plentiful. Also staff was super very friendly and helpful I will definitely be back read more

First time to this location as we used to eat at the one downtown. Same great sandwiches and great people. I had the Fiesta and my wife had the Surfer. Both were delicious and the service was excellent. Even got to discuss some Indiana and Tar Heel sports! Worth our drive from Venice! read more

Wow! I see why this place is loved, great sandwiches, salads and service. I am gluten free yet was able to get the Ruben sandwich without the bread, so good! My sister had the surfer sandwich with marbled pumpernickel bread & cucumbers. She loved it! The staff is super friendly and helpful at making recommendations. Plenty of seating to eat inside, nice friendly people who are regulars can be found here. The original location started in Siesta Key which is probably why the restaurant has a cool vibe. read more

I'm a huge sandwich gal, and Anna's is the best in SRQ/area without a doubt. Been coming here for years- to the one in Siesta and the one up on University near UTC. The food, cookies, and staff are incredible- could not recommend more! read more

Food is always amazing and the Italianna is a must!!! Staff is always so friendly with great customer service.

We've been going to Anna's since the 70's when they first started on Siesta. All of the years they are still consistent no matter which location. Fresh ingredients and plentiful meat on the sandwiches. Pastrami on marble was yummy! read more

The best sandwich place ever. The people are very very nice. The food is delicious. Great portions. Great beach vibes. Love this place! read more

They have a great Italian grinder. The Pastrami is amazing as well. The service is fast and friendly. They always earn a 5-star rating. Highly recommend! read more

Very overpriced and underwhelming. I put the meat of a whole sandwich into half of the bread, but it still was skimpy!!! Over $13 for not much pastrami, and they were shards, not slices. What a rip off! read more

This place is excellent. I was worried it wouldn't be the same as the original on Siesta Key, but I'm glad I was wrong. The surfer with the special sauce is my favorite sandwich. And the marble bread here is so good. This is a solid place for a sandwich, and I'm glad it's getting the recognition it deserves. read more

One the best sandwich shops in Sarasota! I love the Surfer on marble, and I've been eating it for over 20 years!

Simply put, the food is really good ! I hadn't been here in quite a while so when a friend suggested meeting here for lunch I was happy to go. Between the two of us, we ordered 3 different sandwiches so we could try a few different things. We ordered the Reuben (warm, perfectly toasted bread and just the right amount of everything), egg salad with lettuce and tomato on marbled rye (really good except I noticed a hint of relish or something I'm not a fan of) and roast beef on rye with deli mustard and mayo (great quality ingredients). The sandwiches came with several pickle spears and I added a small side of potato salad. The potato salad was pretty good but had large chunks of potato which isn't my preferred style. So to be clear, on a food only review, Anna's might come close to being 5 stars. After that, it drops off a little. The atmosphere is kinda rough around the edges. The set-up for ordering or picking up orders is not ideal. Especially, considering how busy they are because of the great food. If I owned Anna's, I would shut it down for a week, spend $10k - $20k revamping the place and reopen as the best deli in Sarasota. Just a thought. read more

Very good sandwich and soup, can't wait to try other items. I did visit the other location in Siesta Key and it was just as great. Give it a try. read more

The sandwiches are tasty, especially the tuna on rye. The store has rapid service with a friendly face. I do have two suggestions and they are: The seats could be more comfortable. The counterman could bring the sandwich to the customer. read more

Good spot for a deli sandwich. Good portion and very tasty. I ordered the pastrami Rueben which was surprisingly good. I was hoping for cut pastrami fresh made pastrami, but I'm finding that real hard to find down south. Overall good sandwich read more

Anna's Deli - Reuben Pastrami ...pretty good - Delis Near Me - Bradenton, Florida

A friend reccomended this little Sandwhich shop and we decided to stop on our way out of town for the holiday. The store was clean, the employees making food wore gloves and the smells were divine, a great sign. All I can say is Yum. I ordered the Italianna it's a warm sandwhich, and my friend got the Villager. The Villager has bologna, salami and swiss. I normally don't eat bologna, however, I tried a bite and it was delucious. The meats they use are on display and seem up be high quality. I asked to have the Italianna with the Italian dressing on the side, I reccomend this to be sure you experience the best flavor profile. The ham, salami, pepperoni and house sauce they use with the melted provolone and fresh lettuce, tomatoes and onions is a taste explosion. I tried the Italian dressing, which is good, I just liked this sandwich better with out it. The only thing I did not care for was the potato salad, it was very bland. They have won a couple of local awards for good reason, if your in the area give this busy lunch spot a try I'll be back. read more

I had the worst corned beef sandwich in my life from this deli. The meat was so dry you could rub two pieces together to start a fire. It was supposed to have swiss cheese on it but there were just a few spots of what might have been cheese that I could identify. I was asked if I wanted coleslaw, said yes, and discovered it was not included when I got home. I'm glad others like it because I won't be going back. read more

Just the best. You will not find a better Cuban, anywhere. The sauce is insane. Quality and freshness unmatched. Great people too.

Stellar.. MUST have in Sarasota! The hot sandwiches are a MUST. Rueben is incredible and the Italian is a close 2nd. HIGHLY recommend!!

Never been served a pastrami with that much meat at Anna's. Tried on several occasions. It just doesn't happen. When I questioned the amount of meat I was told that's the weighed portion!! read more

The best place to try. I get the most basic sandwich here but have more than ten times and the service and quality of food is amazing. I would recommend to anyone but beware you can't get enough. read more

Best sandwich ever. The sliced bread is amazing! Is too bad that we live in Las Vegas so we can only have it when vacation there.

The food is good, I wish they had sub roll options, but the bread is fresh and the sandwiches are decently proportioned. I had the surfer and my boyfriend had the villager, it was interesting we had to ask for such things as lettuce, tomatoes and onion (most only come with one item), so heads up if you want those items on your sandwich, you may have to ask. The soup sizes are disappointing, a bowl looked more like a cup- but the clam chowder was good. It was a little off putting for us as I asked about adding Mayo since it had the Anna's sauce (I don't know what is in the sauce lol), but the cashiers response was a little rude and not very helpful so I forgo the Mayo lol. I wouldn't return for the service, but I may return for the food. read more

Great service and food. I ordered hot pastrami on marble bread with potato salad..... delicious and will go back again! read more
