    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!

    Brought my sandwich and Cole slaw home.

    Have visited here a few times now. I'm a big fan of roast beef and French dip in particular. Can't say that I have found any better than what they serve here. Generous servings of lean roast beef on a soft French role. I have it with melted provolone cheese. The dip is delicious. It's bordering on gravy. So savory without being too salty. The Cole slaw is an excellent too. Absolutely delicious. Highly recommended.

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

    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!

    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.

    Falafel pita spicy

    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.

    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.

    Spicy chicken shawarma wrap
    Sandra P.

    Spicy chicken shawarma was very good. The cucumber salad and rice tasted great and felt homemade. The pita was amazing. Friendly service and a quiet ambiance since it's mostly pickup orders. Only downside was grabbing a drink and noticing too late that it was expired. Overall, I'd still come back.

    French dip was outstanding

    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?

The service was great, we ordered non-alcoholic drinks as we perused the menus. We ordered French fries as an appetizer to munch on while we waited for our lunch order. They were piping hot and came with catsup in a dish, very elegant (as opposed to a bottle). Our food arrived and it was delicious. After we ate, the owner Shelley came by and visited with us. She was very nice, and it was nice to meet her. It was a great experience and I'll definitely be back.

    Athenian Grill is one of those places that you file away in your head and think that, if ever in…read morethe area again, you might stop in and have a meal. Its somewhat unique location is also something that makes it memorable. It's next to a cozy marina next to a small slough that works its way up like a finger from the delta once inside the Carquinez Strait and, while reasonably close to Fairfield, feels very detached and different from it. I'm reviewing Athenian Grill and keeping its rating the same ... at 4 stars. Some people who write reviews are not keen on updates whereby the rating remains the same. However, I feel that the passage of over a dozen years is a good enough reason to write an updated review! Athenian Grill's menu is predominantly Greek in its theme and the variety of Greek staples that you look for will be there. I chose the chicken souvlaki platter. It was very good, but what they do is put together a large chicken skewer that is accompanied by one with roasted vegetables. I sure could have eaten another chicken skewer, but the vegetable one was fairly good. My friend who was having this late lunch with me had a falafel platter and also said that it was good. We ordered soft drinks and they were refilled as needed. The service was very good. The pricing matches the context, meaning we're not in one of the Springfields, but in Suisun City ... but then not in San Francisco, either! The way the restaurant is finished is tasteful, owing to its understated nautical decor. We chose to eat inside, but it is also possible to eat outside and be closer to the edge of the small marina. Parking is available in a decent sized free lot in front of the restaurant and it appears to be shared with other merchants. I thus got to revisit Athenian Grill - over a dozen years later - and it was having to split the distance between the Bay Area and "Sactomato" that brought this about. I'd like to think that I have a good memory for directions and things spatial, but I did have to look at the map to find its nook-like location in tiny Suisun City. That said, help yourself to the map and go enjoy both the Greek grub at Athenian Grill and the pleasant little marina that it's next to.

It was warm pita bread with tapenade. The tapenade was an olive oil based dipping sauce. Great flavor that paired well with the pita bread. The pita was warm and soft.

For drinks, we had the Peach Bliss and Efes Pilsner. The Peach Bliss was good. The mocktail had a wonderful flavor with its mixture of fruit juices. It was sweet, tart, and quite refreshing. Great drink to end our meal on a warm Saturday. The Efes Pilsner was good, too. An easy drinking beer that paired well with our meal. Light and refreshing. First time trying Turkish beer. Great experience. Service was great. Our server was very friendly and helpful upon our visit. She offered great advise and made our visit wonderful. Our food arrived in a timely manner. The hostess sat us down right away. Great times dining at this downtown Napa restaurant.
