Finally had the chance to try this place. A cousin of mine grew up in the area and has always told me to come but I just now had the chance. I had the New Yorker and when I asked I didn't know what brea to pick so I was recommended sourdough with provolone cheese. I devoured the sandwich it was so good. Everyone here is so nice with service and the customer in mind. You can tell they remember the returning customers when someone comes in to pick up an order and they mention, "you remember" pertaining to a specific way they like an order. Heads up, it's cash only read more

Hands-down, best deli in San Diego! Family owned, and the owners are there all the time greeting every customer and making sure everyone is happy. I think they knew the name of every customer that was in there, and the place was packed. It's located in the back of a office park, parking is a little tight, but I didn't have trouble finding a spot. It's cash only business so bring those dollars. Every sandwich there was made to order, looked amazing, tasted delicious and was reasonably priced. They had plenty of seating inside and some chairs outside. It was a really relaxed atmosphere and really felt like everyone knew each other. If I worked or lived closer, I would be here every day. read more

The service was friendly and very helpful, as it was my first time ordering from Beyer Deli. They welcomed us like family and I could see that their long time customers felt the same way. Additionally, the food was delicious. I ordered the New Yorker and I just loved the pastrami included in the sandwich. I would highly recommend coming for a sandwich and will love to come back. Thank you for the experience! read more

Only open Monday through Fridays in the morning so I really have not gotten a chance to go. Thankfully, my guy was in the area running an errand and had a chance to stop by and bring me a sammich from here. I decided on the Hot and Delicious with no mayo. They added a ton of avocado, which is amazing. But it didn't come close to what I expected from a Top 100 sammich shop. It tasted clean, sure, but there just wasn't anything special about it. I added some banana peppers that I had and it was much more enjoyable. read more

Visit July 2026 Ironically I was in NYC last week and ate at a deli there. That visit was a so-so experience and made me miss Beyer Deli so ta-dah! Still incredibly huge sandwiches. Hefty enough that half will fill me and I'm fat. The torta bread is the way to go for your sandwiches and yeah I know it's not a NYC thing but ewwww I had stale white bread with my NYC meal. I don't get here often but it looks like the menu has expanded with smoothies, pasta, and iced coffees. Still incredibly amazing prices (seriously the price for a pastrami sandwich at the NYC deli was twice the price here). Still the MOST INCREDIBLE AMAZING WELCOMING service you will ever experience. Dina, the owner who runs the front, makes you feel like you've pulled up a chair at her own kitchen. Loves to talk and gets to know you. I'm always a fan of seeing a restaurant acknowledge their regulars it just makes such a positive vibe and Dina welcomes them by name so tells you how often they frequent. Still located in a tiny business mall and if it weren't for the red on the sign you might miss it. Still cash only. Still the safest place on the planet as it is frequented by every form of law enforcement possible from BP, SDPD, CVPD, to the MIB (seeing if you're still with me). Its great that they support and receive support from first responders. If you want a satisfying deli experience stop by. I suggest....well everything. read more

Walking into this sandwich shop feels like you're walking into your hometown deli! The staff is super friendly and helpful with suggestions. The food is finger licking good and plentiful. They take care of their own because the last couple times we went there was a candy box with chocolate for sale to help a young girl pay for her school trip to nyc. Stop by if you want to feel welcome and leave with a full belly. CASH ONLY read more

Been wanting to come here especially because they are open on times I'm not available, but today I'm available! Heads up it is *CASH ONLY* thankfully my buddy had cash in the car! We got down south sandwhich and BP sandwhich it was delicious. The service was outstanding and out of this world. The lady behind the counter, who I believe is the owner was incredibly hospitable. She saw we were short on cash, and hooked us up with drinks on her! I'll come back over and over again because the sandwiches was amazing and because the customer service was outstanding! read more

Delicious sandwiches and great price! Very generous portions and everything tastes fresh. You gotta try their New Yorker- one of the best pastrami sandwiches in San Diego. Hot and delicious is one of the best turkey sandwiches we've had. Definitely recommend! Lots of parking in the plaza. Cash only! Family owned and very kind people. read more

If you know, you know. The Beyer Deli is truly one of a kind. It's a bit hidden and only open during the week, but it's absolutely worth finding. The service is amazing -- friendly staff and owners who welcome you right when you walk in. It's small and cozy with indoor and outdoor seating. Cash only, so come prepared. I got the Italian sub toasted and whew... chef's kiss. Meaty, flavorful, and seriously satisfying. read more

Beyer Deli - Sandwiches Near Me - San Diego, California

I had heard nothing but great things and needed to try it for myself! I arrived at 2:15 and they were definitely slowing down and getting ready to close for the day as it looked to be cleaned up on the inside. They have some tables and chairs for those eating there but I opted for to go. My partner got the California club and I got the raging Bull. I really enjoyed mine and liked the kick from the jalapeños and green Chiles, definitely more on the basic deli sandwich side but very good The chicken club was also good and it came with a full chicken breast, we both like a little more razzle dazzle with our sandwhiches but for the original deli vibe this did hit the spot! Seems like a family owned place which I love supporting and would definitely come back to try their sides or salads if I have the opportunity! read more

Cash only. This is usually a good indicator that the food will be something memorable. However, I was surprised to discover that it really is the power of one person who can make a business shine. I was greeted warmly and guided thoughtfully as a first-time customer. The Reuben is a must and the California (triple-stacked) is delightful. Not having enough cash, the kind lady behind the counter told me to pay the $8 additional when I was able to. I went to the nearest ATM while sandwiches were carefully crafted. On my return, a gentleman in front of me had also returned to pay off his "small debt" from a previous visit and same cash situation. Seems as though this occasionally happens and the business extends kindness and trust to every customer. Go for some sandwiches that you could not really make at home. Delicious! Return for the feeling of stepping into a warm and welcoming home where they remember your name. Recommended!!! read more

Beyer Deli - Home made brownies so yummy. - Sandwiches Near Me - San Diego, California

Beyer Deli has developed a reputation as one of the best delicatessens in SD County. In 2023, this business was ranked #4 on Yelp's Top 100 Places to Eat in the US. With such a high distinction, I made a trip last month to Otay Mesa for a visit. The suite was located in the Three Flags Business Park. It didn't really stand out in the plaza as there was some signage and a few outside tables with canopies for seating. The inside could hold a couple of dozen customers. I had expected a larger operation, but this place was definitely a mom-and-pop shop. I counted 25 different deli sandwiches on the menu board. You could order some of them as a 1/2 sandwich for as cheap as $5.95. The most expensive ones were the triple deckers that cost a reasonable $14.95 each. Grilled cheese, quesadillas, submarines, soups, and salads were the other lunch fare categories. A separate list of breakfast foods and beverages was served between 8 and 10 am. I chose two items for my to-go order. The first was a 1/2 Roast Beef Deli Sandwich. Provolone and wheat were my cheese and bread selections respectively. The meat used was from Boar's Head which was pretty standard. This sandwich was decent for the price. The second was a New Yorker Specialty Sandwich. The ingredients were grilled pastrami and corned beef topped with Swiss cheese, lettuce, tomato, mayo, and mustard on a torta. This item was packed with flavor from the grilled meats. It was well worth the $12.95 tag. A dill pickle spear came with each sandwich. It took about 15 minutes for the kitchen to prepare my order. The service was friendly, and the dining room was kept clean. I enjoyed my experience at Beyer Deli, however I didn't think it quite stacked up to a number four place to eat in the US. read more

Beyer Deli - Sandwiches Near Me - San Diego, California

Haven't been here in awhile, and since the child requested something to bring back home, why not, I was in the area. It's really good to know that the deli hasn't changed. Still has that family and love vibe, and it is still cash only. The service is unbeatable. Lines move quickly. Phones ring off the hook lol Overheard at the counter: Your total is ___. Customer: takes out card The lady at the counter: we don't take cards, it's cash only. Customers: rummaging around for any cash they have. Counter lady: don't worry, we got you! Just pay it back next time. Couple is confused for a whole minute, but grateful haha (tbh I would have paid for them) By the time I left at 1:15 the place was packed like sardines. Took the sammies home, and I could barely finish half of my South of the Border. Regardless of whether or not you are in the area, you have to experience this place at least once. read more

This place is family owned. Remember, it's a cash only but any sandwich that you order you're going to go home happy I've been here multiple times and never had a problem with the service or my food. They are pretty big and they're definitely shareable. read more

I have been wanting to try this place out for the longest but couldn't see myself driving so far south to get it. Boy, I was so wrong and should've gone here a long time ago. Got the pastrami sandwich and it was delicious. It is cash only and there's no ATM machine there. read more

We order from here pretty frequently for office lunch. I am a huge fan of the tuna salad sandwich and the hot & delicious (without bacon). Unfortunately, for whatever reason, my order has now gotten mistaken for the second time and was substituted for a pastrami sandwich and a chicken salad. I was so disappointed. The pastrami is extremely fatty and rubbery in texture, and the chicken is also rubbery and oversalted. I ended up needing to throw it all out. I want to love this local deli as much as anyone else, but they need to keep orders straight ... How does one mistake tuna for pastrami? How do you mistake your own turkey sandwich for a chicken salad? read more

This place is extra amazing. Their prices are legit. This place is cheaper and five million times better than Chubway. The sandwiches are huge, full of whatever toppings you desire. Everyone working here is super nice and they'll accommodate most reasonable requests you can come up with. My wife and I tend to show up here before taking our doggies to Silverwing Park. She really enjoys the tuna on wheat with sprouts. I've tried the BBQ beef, New Yorker, and I SWEAR they made me a toasted PB & J once but I may be incorrect. Either way, like I said they're accommodating as heck here. Their sandos are off the hook. It is cash only so be prepared! read more

CASH ONLY. Don't bother coming here with your company credit card where you have to purchase all your food. Especially avoid driving 25 miles to get here to find that out because it's not on the forefront of the establishment online. I hope this helps someone else. read more

If you're looking for the most delicious deli sandwiches in San Diego, be sure to check out Beyer Deli on Beyer Blvd. Today we ordered the #15 New Yorker with grilled pastrami and corn beef, topped with melted Swiss cheese, lettuce, tomato, Mayo and mustard served on a soft Mexican torta. We also ordered #21 Philly cheesesteak sandwich with Grilled Roast beef bell pepper's, onion topped with melted provolone cheese , lettuce, tomato, Mayo, served on a grilled 8"French Roll. Both sandwiches were delicious but the New Yorker was the WINNER for us! The New Yorker is hands down the BEST pastrami sandwich we've had in the west coast! It was so good I'm craving one right now!!LOL Beyer Deli is a MUST try! The restaurant was very clean with friendly staff. There's indoor/outdoor seating. The deli is in a plaza with plenty of parking. Give it a try! Happy Yelping :) read more

Beyers deli is the best deli that I've ever encountered. Friendly and respectful staff, incredible food, specifically I love the chicken club. All of the smoothies are incredible.

5 - Great service and super sweet staff (Cash only!) Just a heads-up - this place is cash only, so make sure you have some before ordering! I didn't realize it at first, but when I went to place an order for four sandwiches, the lady at the counter was so kind and said she'd start getting everything ready while I ran to the bank. Her kindness and attitude honestly made my day - she was so patient and friendly the whole time. The sandwiches were good (I've had better, but they were still tasty), but the service was amazing. It's rare to see that kind of genuine customer care these days, and because of her, I'll definitely be coming back.. read more

If you're in the neighborhood and want a deli sandwich, stop in. Decent sandwiches with no frills. Portion sizes were a little skimpy especially on the meats. A good sandwich, just not worth the price. Friendly staff. Be aware they are cash only, which I didn't realize until they order. There is a sign outside the entrance that is small and easily covered up. No mention of this policy on their website. read more

Definitely worth all the flowers they are getting! I've seen Beyer Deli for years and never bothered to stop by. I was in the area this week and decided to give it a try after a lot of word-of-mouth recommendations and several local youtube food review videos... First and foremost, the service by Dina and Mike. Top notch and warm! I had heard all about how they make you feel like family, and this is 100% true! We started talking about the subs and ended up having a conversation about our favorite coffee spots in San Diego hahaha Now, the subs...OMG! The pictures just tell one part of the story. They are marvelous! (I was low key eyeing other people's orders) Generous deli meat portions, crisp lettuce, thin onions, the dressing...I showed the pics to a coworker of mine that's from NY and he wants to come down to try them asap! I'm coming back to try everything on the menu. Word of advice: This is a CASH ONLY establishment, so come prepared, and come hungry! read more

I wanted something quick because I had an appointment. I saw the positive reviews and was excitedto check it out. , when I walked in there happened to be a group of police enforcement arriving at the same time. I went up to the cashier asked for my order. She said she would take my payment after she attended to the police officers. She saw me take out my card and failed to tell me it was cash only. She did tell the police officers and luckily I overheard. Because of the time I didn't have time to wait and actually taste the sandwich, and since I couldn't return or pay I choose to leave as I didn't have cash on me. read more
