    After: Chicken Shawarma Wrap filled w/ joy (mine has no tomatoes)
    Torien N.

    Can't pass Fairfield without getting lunch at the Big H Deli!!! Chicken Shawarma plate with corn salad and rice and of course, the in-house, fresh Roast Beef Dip with au jus!

    Steve L.

    I've been here two times, each time was delicious! The first I got falafel and salad, it was really good and light. Tons of flavor. Today I got the pastrami sandwich combo. The sandwich was one of the best pastrami sandwiches I've had. The bread was moist, meat was hot and tender, veggies were the right proportions. The service was killer, greeted me as I walked in and got me going quickly. They have iced tea but I wanted a lemon, so they cut some up fresh for me! That's the type of thing that will get me coming back over and over. The ambiance is a deli, nothing too flashy, but they've got plenty of seats inside and out. If you're looking for a great deli, nice staff and somewhere to take a load off for lunch or earlier dinner in Fairfield / Cordelia this is it.

    Big H Deli is a hidden gem in Fairfield California. The owners Zed and Louie put love into every sandwich and made-from-scratch item that comes out of eatery. I've tried quite a few items like the pasta salad, potato salad, dolma, pastrami sandwich, gyro, and the spicy chicken shawarma. Everything coming out of here is amazing and large portions to boot! Whenever I'm near Fairfield, or in Solano County, Big H is a must-visit!!

    One of the few places I'll say is worth your money and the trip! It wasn't super busy when we walked in and the portion sizes are very generous! We order the French dip sandwich and the flavor was great, meat was cooked just right and the sauce complimented the sandwich well, though it was a bit thicker than I thought it'd be for an Au Jus, but hey to each their own for sauces. 4/5* Their shawarma wrap was probably the most worth getting on their menu; the size of it is very generous and flavorful. Out of the 2 things we got this was definitely the winner for $12. 5/5* Both of the gentlemen were very nice behind the counter and when we're back in the area we will be back again!

    Stayed in Fairfield a few times, and each time I conveniently walked over to Big H Deli to grab lunch. Each time I tried something different: chicken shawarma plate with humus and cucumber salad, pastrami on sweet roll with chips and soda combo, and falafel spicy pita. Enormous servings, fresh ingredients, and a meal under $15 for most items! Friendly service. Lots of indoor dining space. I highly recommend this locally owned shop.

    Loaded with meat pastrami sandwich

    Stopped in here for lunch. I ordered a hot pastrami sandwich with Swiss cheese on a sourdough roll and half extra meat. It was absolutely delicious and huge! They sliced the meat to order. The pastrami was well seasoned without being overly salty. It also had a nice blackened crust. Very moist and tender. The bread was soft but, held up well to the monster amount of meat. Service was fast, about 5 minutes. They have a nice, private outdoor patio where you can enjoy your meal. Overall, exceptional food. I highly recommend!

    Thick and moist pastrami sandwich.

    I've looked at the deli for a long time. Was in Cordelia today and decided to have a late lunch. Place was clean and open. Since I was the only one in deli at the time, service was great. Ordered a pastrami on marbled rye with yellow mustard and pickles. Sandwich was huge, just like the pictures. Pastrami was sliced thick. It was plentiful and good. Not the best pastrami but it was good. When in the area again, i will try another sandwich that has a stronger backbone for the sandwich.

    Roast beef plate
    Charlene B.

    Everything was cooked perfectly We got the roast beef plate, chicken, and gyros. Serving is pretty big too!

    Erick L.

    Usually don't have any complaints about Big H but the last Pastrami Sandwich had some dry, overcooked, crisp pieces that weren't pleasant to chew on. Maybe they were thrown on the flattop too long. Sandwich overall was still pretty good. My son had a French Dip and he thought the roast beef was too dry as well. Could have been an off day. We'll still be back.

    French dip was outstanding
    Mark G.

    Trusted Yelp to try a new spot on way home from SF. Wow. The sandwich was outstanding and so big I only finished half, which means I get to enjoy it more later. The guys were awesome, super friendly and helpful. This may become a regular stop on our regular trips to the Bay.

    Hi, do you have party tray options for your meats?

    Yes we have

    Hi, we love the Gyros and Shwarma but wonder what happened to the spicy sauce, it was delicious and wish you'd bring it back?

    So with the Sriracha stuff that happened earlier this year as well as the ongoing relative shortage, the one they used to use before was very expensive on the market and became too much of a cost.

    Hi, just checking to see if there are any halal options now offered on your menu?

    Yes we have the gyro or the beef shawerma it's halal beef and lamb mix

    I see that you do not offer delivery, will you be in the future? Specifically through doordash?

Their plates come with meat over a gigantic pile of rice, a side of fresh cucumber and red onion salad, hummus, and grilled tomatoes and onions. Don't forget the pita too! This will feed 2 for $20! I only wish they served this with some tzatziki and hot sauce as the rice is dry af. Lucky for me, I had some tzatziki and Dragon Hot sauce (shout out trader joe's - so good!) to pour on top. Let me tell you, with all the fixings, this is the ultimate plate! The food is fresh, vibrant, and I appreciate the healthy serving. They were nice enough to let me do a combo of two different kebabs. I had chicken with my kofta, but the chicken was ok. Kinda dry. They do offer shawarma too, beef or chicken. You can't combine shawarma with kebabs though, FYI. My BF said it came out to about $25-28 for the kebab combo. At that price point, I think I rather just stick with the one meat option. The gyro plate is good too! You get the cucumber salad, hummus, and pita still but they top the gyro with a little feta crumbles and some sliced red onions. No grilled tomatoes, however my second visit, they gave me some tzatziki and hot sauce on the side, so I think you may need to double check or ask for it to be included. Prices have gone up since a few months ago so new menu photos are attached! My to go order was ready in 15 minutes, and I was in and outta there in seconds :) They DO take Apple Pay!

Having just returned from an all-day wine tour, we decided to split an appetizer and an entree. We love lamb when it is prepared well. The Lamb Kebobs caught our eye and we went for it. And, we started with the warm hummus and pita bread. The quantity was just right for us. The hummus was very good. We have a place in Corvallis, Oregon that prepares the best hummus we've ever had in our lives, so the bar is high. Tarla's hummus was excellent with just the right amount of smokiness. The lamb kebobs were also tasty. And the roasted veggies with them were great. Nice combo of spices. Note: there are only two kebobs. We weren't massively hungry, so it was just right, but it may not be enough for you. Servers were attentive but didn't hover. A very nice experience!
