The spot is well kept up and clean and organized and the cashier and cooks and everyone are always so polite and professional. read more

Great one stop shop for all your breakfast and lunch needs! They serve a limited menu of Starbucks selections which is pretty neat! Appetite has everything you need from refrigerated sandwiches, grab and go salads, yogurt cups, juices, fruit, protein bars, etc. I too, did stop by for my lunch and ordered a 1/2 sandwich 1/2 soup combo. You can choose from any of their sandwiches! I got the Steak Melt and Maryland Crab Soup. It was hearty and kept me satisfied for lunch! I think soups are popular, so some may run out after lunch. I agree this is the ultimate lunch spot for the surrounding workers in the building and area, so do expect a wait time of 15-20 minutes if you do order upfront. Great choices and a nice variety of food, energy drinks, and coffees! The staff was helpful in suggestions when I mentioned it was my first visit, and gave me a menu to take back. read more

We were getting our passports renewed and this was quick convenience that paid dividends... Same building on 1st floor of federal bldg. Good food, fast and plenty of seating inside and out. My 3 boys like a variety of foods and they each found what they wanted. Service is Fast casual setting. They call out numbers or may bring it out... but you can eat there or take away read more

This place is mediocre at best. Very expensive and food takes forever even if you order ahead.

Everyone working was very nice and polite! They have lots of fresh grab and go items as well as hot food. The breakfast burrito with bacon was good. Scrambled eggs, cheese, bacon, and potato on a grilled tortilla. The red sauce has great flavor. read more

Appetite - Big Breakfast Burrito with Bacon, egg, cheese, potato - Sandwiches Near Me - San Diego, California

Ridiculously overpriced for what it is. Two protein bars costing $10 is wild, and a deli sandwich being $20 is actually insane. The food is decent at best, definitely not worth those prices. On top of that, the baldish guy I'm assuming is the owner gives off a really weird vibe. Plenty of better spots in that area that won't make you feel ripped off after one sandwich and a snack. read more

Wow!!! I was getting a passport in this building and stumbled upon this restaurant. The food is incredible. The best beet salad I've ever had!! Service was amazing. I will be back in until then I will be craving the yummy food! read more

Wow and not in a good way. We have attempted to eat at this business three times./ We have been successful once. Why? Because the business does NOT adhere to their published hours. The first visit we thought maybe we just weren't aware of the hours. Today I specifically called and asked when their kitchen closes and was told 2:30. We showed up at 2:15 and were told that the kitchen was closed and to pick from some pre-prepared options. Uhm, NO. How about you honor your published business hours? Even when I told the person at the counter that I had called she just dismissed us. The non-caring and dismissive experience is just not excusable. This business has clearly to us by their actions that they don't want our business so we will never spend another penny with them. Shocking and sad. Clearly customer service is not a priority or even a concern. read more

My almost $9 soup to go was cold. $9 for a cold bawl of soup seems a bit excessive. It might have been good if it was hot. It wasn't good cold. read more

This place has a "grab and go" vibe. $16 for a croissant and drip coffee. Not many other options around so if you are in a pinch for breakfast this gets the job done. read more

Appetite - Cardiff Croissant Sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - San Diego, California

The exact same sandwich, the Pacifica, went from penthouse to outhouse in less than a year. Once a 5-star sandwich it torpedoed to a 1-star. What happened? I'll tell you what happened. The sandwich Becky received this time was the evil twin of the beautifully crafted sandwich she received the first time. It was all wrong this time. The French roll was dry. The ratio of ingredients, so perfect last time was all off. Not enough turkey or Provolone. The avocado was old and mushy. The veggies were not fresh. The aioli was non-existent. The sandwich construction was sloppy and haphazard. In a word: terrible. C'mon Appetite, you're better than this. read more

I was leaving the passport agency and was hungry I stopped at this shop to grab a bite not expecting anything special the Cuban sandwich I had was CRAZY GOOD and the seating in dinning area is nice I'd def make a stop here even if I had no buisness to handle at Columbia building Thank you read more

We ordered coffee and a bagel. They were out of coffee. The bagel cost $6.45 and was one of the worst bagels ever.

Hidden deli inside of a professional business building downtown. Thought it was clean and spaced out nicely for the times we are in. I did the Harvest Chicken Salad Sandwich today. Pretty healthy tasting choice. Albeit they do have burgers on the menu I want to try out next time. read more

Service is great and the spot is clean. I call in my order and it's ready in minutes. The breakfast sandwich is pretty good.

Food was fresh, place was clean, and service was fast! I would definitely come back here again.

I love this place! It's my go to every Wednesday!! The restaurant itself is very esthetically pleasing and clean. The staff is very nice and welcoming. The menu has lots of varieties of food. My go to is the Tikka Masala Chicken, it's to die for! Addictive because it's so tasty!! The service is fast and everything comes out fresh. Thank you for giving such a great option downtown!! read more

Great breakfast burritos. I wish they were open on the weekends. Really good service.

Good food and quick service. Staff is great and friendly. Location is nice and offers indoor or outdoor dining.

Appetite is a hidden gem located inside the One Columbia Building. It is family owned and they truly care about the quality of their food and their customers. They offer a great variety of fresh food. The employees are friendly and the owners are hands-on. read more

I was "stuck" having to wait all day for my passport but this little gem was a little godsend. They had coffee, breakfast, juice, etc. But I waited until lunch and ordered a Cobb Sandwich. Sounded odd at first but then I saw that they roasted their own Turkey breast in house. It was fantastic! I love fresh roasted turkey on a sandwich! Because of a mixup with my order (the person who took my order must not have understood my request) I didn't get my side of waffle potato fries. They started making them but I hadn't paid for them originally. I told them it was fine and not to worry. But the manager insisted and gave them to me for free. So nice of him! Great food! Great service! Hidden gem! read more

Disappointing and overpriced. Sometimes the turkey and chicken tastes old. Quality varies a lot. I got food poisoning once from the French dip. Will do in a pinch. read more

This is the pesto chicken flatbread. Half the dough is chewy and almost uncooked. Chicken is extremely dry and unseasoned. Pesto has this almost bitter taste. This is seriously one of the worse dishes I've have in a while. I can feel the amount of oil they use on my face after taking a bite. Ever since the last manager left the cooks have been horrible. What a waste of money. Go anywhere else but here. Lots of good places in walking distance besides this over priced garbage. Gave them 1 star because the service is good. read more

I have ordered from Appetite weekly over the last couple of years while working across the street. Their breakfast burritos are amazing as well as their breakfast sandwiches and acai bowls. They have great options for lunch as well. I tend to always customize my orders and they have never gotten it wrong. The best part about this place is the friendly employees. Wish I could give more than 5 stars! read more

Appetite - not so appetizing... I work in the building the café is located and I am a regular here (twice a day sometimes). I will no longer be returning to this place after the bite I took into my sandwich to only find a POP TOP from a can. How did a pop top get in my sandwich?! read more

I can't say it enough how delicious and amazing this place is! From the food to the employees! I wish I'd have tried it sooner. Supper affordable and that not something I can easily say for places in downtown SD. I can honestly give a 11/10 because every dish I've tried has over exceeded my expectations. read more

Appetite - A hearty BLT Sandwich & a side of chicken chipotle pasta all for under 14$ - Sandwiches Near Me - San Diego, California

It's always easy to write a great review, or a less than positive review - it's the average reviews which are harder. I work in the building where Appetite is located so it's convent to stop by and grab breakfast or lunch. Also, there food is normally good, with moments of great, and moments of disappointment. Seems the management has made several changes, and the current individuals working the front are good. But, the cooks can take more care - if I request no tomato, please do not add to my sandwich. Please do not use pepper stems as the veggies in my sandwich when I pay 1.35 for a canned soda, it should not have expired 30 days prior (yes I can tell from the taste). Will I be back, yes - they are in the lobby of my building and the food is usually good. read more

Not unless you're in a rush. It was just average food. We ordered the lasagna and the carrot cake. The best thing about the cake was the frosting and the rest was super dry. The lasagna taste like hospital food. I wish I had better things to say. The place was pretty clean and easy to get to. read more

This place is incredible. Marty made me the best wrap I have had in a long time, I normally dont get wraps, burt after eating the one he made for me I am going to start trying new things. Incredible service. Incredible food, ask for Marty to make your food and you wont be disappointed. read more

Their Pacifica sandwich is excellent and I chose to make it a spinach wrap. It was very fresh, filling and came with a dill pickle spear. It's a busy place over the lunch hour as it's downtown and appears to be part of a hotel. Service was great with this being said. My food arrived pretty quick. read more

What happened I ordered the Del Mar delight the muffin was not toasted the mushrooms were raw the cheese was cold it has to be the worst breakfast sandwich I have ever had, I've been eating here when you first started way before it was appetite BUT this is not the first time some thing went wrong with my food , BUT ITS THE LAST TIME I EAT AT YOU DUMP read more

Best place to eat! The ladies at the front are AMAZING!! They have Starbucks, breakfast and lunch. I will definitely be coming back.

I have been a loyal customer when it was called Pacific Western Deli! With change comes ups and downs and I have patiently waited to write this review because they had almost all new staff, new menu and my favorite employee Rita was gone for awhile. She's back, all the employees seems to better trained and I have had an opportunity to taste more items on the menu. I will admit I was a lil annoyed when my favorite sandwich from the old deli did not make the cut. But I have a new favorite (tx to fellow Yelper/friend Ron B) the Chipotle chicken sandwich on a french roll add Avocado! I have also had in in a whole wheat wrap and it's good too! A MUST ORDER: Roasted Lemon pepper Chicken Soup is soooooo good I want the recipe! The Solana Beach breakfast sandwich is delish and I really liked the chorizo burrito not super greasy like some taco shops. All in all opening a new spot comes with hic-ups and I think they have improved immensely! read more

Ordered the chicken salad sandwich with gluten-free bread, which I was stoked they had. It was the SMALLEST sandwich I've ever seen. It belongs on a child's menu. (At Sprouts, when you order a GF sandwich, they give you TWO, because the bread is so small.) I didn't expect 2 sandwiches, but really - they should give you a side salad or tell you "The sandwich is small, so if you're hungry, you might want to order a side." The sandwich did taste good and the dill pickle spear was good. I should've put a fork next to the sandwich in the photo so show the size - sorry! I liked the ambiance. I went with 2 other people and our food all came out at different times. The man that ordered the RARE hamburger waited the longest - and quite long. It was above average in noise. I will go back because the salads looked really good and seemed less expensive than the deli at One America Plaza. read more

I work in this building and they nail the food here. Consistent and well-priced. The people that work here bust their asses--thank you guys!

I have visited this restaurant twice in a week while downtown San Diego. Great food and nice quiet, hidden location. Highly recommend!

This is a great place for lunch downtown. It's a affordable version of Tender Greens. I have tried their salads and all have been fresh and delish. They are big enough to share if you have with a smaller appetite. The flat iron steak sandwich with bleu cheese on a fresh baguette is like comfort food, throw in the waffle cut fries and a re-run of Happy Days! Breakfast, coffees and croissants are served also. read more
