    This deli was in a convenient location since we stayed at the hotel across the street. They offer a large variety of sandwiches, salads, and drinks. The service is somewhat fast but you can tell the food is of decent quality. They have limited seating inside but have additional tables outside.

    Messy but delicious! I honestly Forgot which sandwich I got but it's the one with the Italian cold cut meats and it was delightful! My friend got the London something LOL I don't remember what they were called but this one was extremely saucey and both of our sandwiches were literally everywhere by the time we were done. Delicious nonetheless. Definitely recommend if you are looking to enjoy a nice lunch :)

    BYO Low Carb Plate

    12/26/2025 Hubby and I were looking for a light dinner of soup or salad as we drove into San Diego in the current rain storm. We bypassed Panera and found this deli. This quaint corner little deli had indoor and outdoor seating. The employee/owner? Was so friendly welcoming us in and making sure we were comfortable to ask any questions about the menu items. Our soup and salad went out the window when we saw the "Low Carb Plate". We chose the steak option (+$4) and had broccoli and asparagus as our two vegetables. Then I chose clam chowder as our side. Hubby grabbed a pasta salad from the fridge but it was okay. Nothing as impressive as our dinner. The steak was tender, seasoned and cooked well. The asparagus and broccoli were grilled just as my hubby likes it. The clam chowder was creamy and had good flavor. There were pieces of clam, potato, and celery in each spoonful...until I ate them all. There were so many options for dinner aside from sandwiches, salads, and wraps. We thought we were going to grab a slice of cake for dessert, but we were actually full and didn't get one. Maybe we'll stop by another time this weekend. But don't sleep on this place! It was pretty busy as we sat inside to eat. People were continuously ordering and picking up take out orders. The employee/owner took the time to check in on us between customers and orders.

    Beet salad with salmon and the green machine. SO YUM!

    WOW! All the plates in saw walking into the cute deli vibe with tables and chairs both inside and out looked so delish. When I got my meal, I was delighted. It is SO DELICIOUS. The service was impeccable, offering me a great sub for an item that had run out. Great staff. Thank you!!!

    Tuna sandwich

    I love Tuna sandwich- tasty bread & seasoning Tuna + Avocado. I need to come back again!

    Great little spot next to the Padres arcade parking structure. Roughly a dozen seats with a few inside but a great outside seating area so you want people watch. The sandwich my daughter and I split ahead of the game was fantastic - everything was fresh. Service was great too - food was at our table in less than 10 mins. Really took some convincing to use their bathroom, which I was not a fan of because the floors feel permanently greasy.

    Great corner location near Petco Park. The staff was friendly and the menu was very comprehensive offering any and every sandwich or salad option. I stopped in for lunch today and ordered their Turkey Club, and it did not disappoint. The sandwich included many layers and did not skim on the ingredients. The balance of flavors and textures was ideal for a sandwich with so much going on. I'll be back again and sample something else from the menu.

    Lobster roll was a The bun was able to support the weight of the. Definitely worth the Chicken wrap was very tasty too.

    Opted for their protein plate. Filet mignon, broccoli and mushrooms with a side of ceazar salad. The place is particularly busy for the lunch hour. I enjoyed the plate lunch and they cooked everything perfectly. Meat and veggies not overly cooked. Deli has variety of chips, drinks, family friendly menu and indoor or outdoor seating.

    Just started working in downtown so I've been exploring all of the lunch options and have gone back to this place twice now. Tried the godfather and the chipotle wrap so far. This place dont miss. Might be my new go-to. Can get busy during the lunch hour and food does take a little while but prob cuz its so damn fresh. Look at that mf wrap tho

    Greenbird 9/10. I just wish the wouldn't lump all the meat I. The center, had to take it apart and spread it out.
    Scott P.

    Sandwich was a 9/10 due to them lumping all the meat in the center, other than that it was great Took a bit long for how many people were there Friendly people Store was a bit awkward to walk in when there's a line

    Margherita Veggie Flatbread
    Austin W.

    So even though I had to wait a little longer than I wanted to, the food was actually pretty good. And I get it, when you're swamped with to go orders, it's difficult to get everything out on time. I appreciate the management reaching out to me and I apologize for reviewing when in a "hangry" mindset. My bad guys.

    This place is such a gem!!! They have something for everyone! We ordered a wide range of sandwiches and all of them were amazing! You never know what to expect when you visit somewhere with an extensive menu- however Cloud 9 lived up to its name as everything was so good! The service was great- the cashier helped answer questions and was really patient with my indecisiveness. The food took some time to arrive but it felt quite reasonable. There is limited seating inside but more available outside with heat lamps if you get cold. I loved this place and I'll be back for more.

    The happy hour and the vibes are immaculate!…read more A few months ago, I went here with my boyfriend, sisters and brothers in law for my going away dinner. I am so sad because I can't remember the name of our waitress! She was amazing because she was so ON POINT with everything -- from knowing the details of each menu item, to knowing what "medium+" is for a steak. She was attentive and amazing and shoutout to her! The food and tiny 'tinis were delicious! The steak and fries were such a good deal for $25. I could've eaten two of them, and now that I'm writing this months later, I'm thinking about that meal again. There is also a spot where the live musician plays, which is awesome! When I'm in San Diego, I have to come back.

    I really wanted to like Books & Records, but the service left a lot to be desired…read more After checking in, we waited a bit for our table, which was understandable. Once seated, though, we sat for about 20 minutes without anyone acknowledging us. I eventually had to flag someone down just to get water. We then waited even longer for our server to take our order. Because service was so slow, I ordered all of our drinks and food at once since I wasn't sure when we'd see our server again. What stood out even more was watching a couple seated next to us receive immediate attention. They were greeted, served water right away, and the woman was offered a purse hook. Meanwhile, we were sitting there with our purses shoved beside us and weren't offered the same courtesy. It may seem like a small detail, but combined with the lack of attention, it made us feel overlooked. The drinks came out quickly, and the chicken satay and mac and cheese were decent. Nothing was bad, but nothing really stood out food-wise either. The highlight of the evening was definitely the live music. The performers were fantastic and created a great atmosphere that honestly was the only enjoyable part of the evening.

It's got the decor, chairs, and art to match. Jessica was our server and she was amazing! She gave us lots of suggestions on what to try and what is on the menu since it was my first time here. She recommended the bloody Mary flight so did grab that to try! We also ordered the biscuits and gravy to share and orange juice. The portions are so large! So I am glad we decided to share the biscuits and gravy but let me run down each thing. Bloody Mary Flight: Honestly every single one was amazing. My favorite was definitely the pickle Mary! Everything tasted so delicious and was garnished beautifully. Well worth the 22 dollars. Biscuits and Gravy: Absolute perfection of comfort food. The biscuits were so fluffy and well seasoned. The gravy was also soooo good, just like my mom makes. The sausage in it was also cooked so well and juicy. I've never tried mashed potatoes with the biscuits and gravy but it worked very well! Orange Juice: Not a fan really, not pulpy enough and I wasn't a fan of the flavor. Overall this is definitely a must visit! I will definitely be back.

The parking is get in where you can fit in on the street but it wasn't difficult. They have indoor and outdoor seating in the back. Our server Ulises was great which he immediately greeted us and was very attentive even with the Father's Day crowd. I decided to try the rib and eggs and I have to admit, I was very happy with my choice. The ribs were lightly sauced with a thin sauce that worked well. The meat was tender and had great flavor. I just didn't like the grass they put on top!lol The eggs were okay. I added cheese but I barely had any compared to my friends. The cantaloupe was a nice sweet treat afterwards. I tried my friend's meal and they were also good which they also enjoyed their meals overall. I also tried a one of the Bloody Mary flights which was the only tequila shot with pork skin on top. I do not like savory and spicy drinks but that particular shot was decent and was hot sauce for the pork skin. Overall, the experience was nice and the food was good especially for the value.

We ordered the chilaquiles and the shrimp enmoladas, and both were outstanding. The flavors were spot on and it's clear they put a creative, elevated spin on these classic dishes. It's no surprise that their savory specialties are so well-regarded; the kitchen clearly knows what they're doing. What really stood out, though, was the service. Despite it being a popular spot, our experience was seamless. The staff was incredibly prompt, courteous, and attentive throughout our entire meal. It's rare to find a place that balances such a busy, upbeat atmosphere with such quick and friendly service. The food arrived at our table fast and perfectly prepared. If you're looking for a reliable, high-quality brunch in the Gaslamp Quarter or East Village area, this is definitely a top-tier choice.

My girlfriend picked the right place. Located in the Gaslamp District of San Diego i was worried we wouldn't find parking close to the restaurant. But because we came so early, street parking was plentiful and available. Cool vibe and great wait staff. Got seated quickly and the restaurant filled up rather quickly thereafter. First coffee was was probably the best cup of house coffee I've had in a while - anywhere! Followed by a shared plate of fried rice Benedict, shrimp and grits (yes for breakfast) and candied bacon. The bacon was the last thing on the table (usually first to be devoured), but I think that's because we were already too full to eat anything else. Food was delicious!

The entire dining area was filled almost exclusively with white customers, while the visible staff roles felt very segmented in a way that didn't sit right. Here's the puzzle: look around the room, look at who is being seen, look at who is serving, look at who is clearing... and then ask yourself why the only person worth looking at wasn't even part of the experience they're trying to sell. Between the atmosphere, the food quality, and that underlying vibe, it's not somewhere I'd go back to.
