Staff was AMAZING! Multiple menu options. Lovette was extremely helpful and attentive. Would definitely recommend when you are in the DTSD area. Hit them up before or after a Padre game read more

I'd love to tell you how the food tastes, but I'd have to actually get my food in order to review it. I wouldn't know because I've been sitting here waiting for the food for the past 20 minutes and I wish I had just gone somewhere else. Now that I actually got the food, I ordered a veggie marg. flatbread w/chicken and it's more like a flat-dead. Hardly had any veggies on it and super small portion for the price. First and last time coming here! read more

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 read more

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 :) read more

Cloud 9 Deli - Beet salad with salmon and the green machine. SO YUM! - Delis Near Me - San Diego, California

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

Cloud 9 Deli - Bacon, Egg, & Cheese Sandwich - Delis Near Me - San Diego, California

Pretty darn good sando BUT highly recommend you order ahead or prepare to wait. Placed my order at 12:17 (fully acknowledge this qualifies as lunch rush time) and didn't walk out with my to-go sandwich until 12:53. They warned me it would take about 15 min which I was fine with but nearly 40 minutes for a lunch spot downtown is pretty wild. Besides myself there were several other antsy people waiting. I had the steak sandwich and I will say, it was delicious. read more

Cloud 9 Deli - Filet Mignon Club - Delis Near Me - San Diego, California

best deli in the east village. so many options here no matter what you're in the mood for. All my orders have been to-go and I highly recommend using the "toast" app to pre-order since this place gets busy during peak lunch hours. If not, you can spend up to 30mins to get your food and that just speaks to the popularity and consistency of this deli. my go to's are the turkey club sandwich and the filet sandwich. If you are hungry and looking at the best bang for your buck, the fully loaded turkey club will be your favorite. The filet sandwich is almost $20 but worth the splurge! When you pick up your order, you'll be enticed to have one of their craft hard to find anywhere else beers from the fridge or even upgrade to some creamy cheesecake. They have many cheesecakes here at the registrar as well. read more

This is definitely one of my go to sandwich shops in San Diego !! They make the best sandwiches I've ever had! It's not a big restaurant so seating is limited but that shouldn't stop you from trying them out. They use super quality ingredients and you can tell upon first bite. The service was quick and everyone was so kind and helpful. There was also a little outside seating. It's street parking and they do have limited hours. read more

My new favorite deli in San Diego (sorry litl pepper). The good: This place slaps. Everything I've ordered is so goooood. (Chopped cheese, protein plays, CHICKEN CAESER WRAP!!!) the wrap is my favorite. I also love ordering a ginger shot. It kinda seems like this place has it all. Great place if you're a couple who can't decide what to eat or want different things. Staff was kind. The bad: it takes a while to get your order, but honestly it does not bother me since it's that good. Not a good idea if you're in a rush. Street parking only. read more

Cloud 9 Deli has a huge selection of choices and so you'll probably need some time deciding on what to get. When we got there, there was a decent line, but it turns out that was just people waiting around for their order. You order on the left-side of the counter and the right-side is for pick-up (but they'll come and find you once your food is ready). It was a Padres game day so we had to wait over 20+minutes. The Godfather is their hot version of an Italian sandwich and it was really good! The toasted bread had a nice crunch and I really enjoyed the chunks of parmesan as it added a boost of more flavor. The italian dressing and meats were all great. The Filet Mignon club was also really tasty! The ciabatta was nice and soft and the meat was tender and flavorful. The peppercorn aioli was also very good. The Rachel was their pastrami sandwich and I thought it was also solid. I'm not the biggets fan of pastrami but I think between the meat and fixings, it was a well balanced sandwich. Each of the 3 sandwiches we got were great in their own ways! read more

Pros: - Huge menu of fresh sandwiches, wraps, salads, etc - Plenty of canned and bottled booze options - $5 draft beers - Friendly staff - Clean Cons: - It took 20+ minutes to get the one wrap I ordered (to be fair, they were busy) - There was a loud and sketchy homeless guy in the shop that they knew and allowed to walk around and intrude on people's meals. He chased a couple people out of the shop. It's tough, I get it, but once he starts getting in people's business you've got to boot him. Overall, good food and a great addition to the neighborhood. read more

Service is great. Greeted when walked in. The female cashier provided some recommendations since it was my first time. Ordered their French Dip which was delicious. Might be the best French Dip I ever had. Only downside, they don't serve fries with it. You have to order it separately. Other cafés and delis I've been to include it. Busy place during lunch. So I would recommend to order a head of time. Wait isn't that long anyways, about 15-20 minutes during lunch hours. The place was clean and alot of tables and chairs inside for a small space. Outside seating is also available. read more

10/10 Highly recommend this spot ! A lot of options with sandwiches and drinks ! Even have beer on tap ! read more

Cloud 9 Deli - Delis Near Me - San Diego, California

To start, service was incredibly friendly and helpful. The space is clean and inviting, almost cheerful. With various ballads playing over their sound system including Air Supply, you can help but feel relaxed while you await your order. Set up is fast casual, order from the counter, pay, then wait for your name to be called. My order took about 15 minutes to make. While the place was mostly empty there seemed to be a steady flow of pick up and delivery orders being cranked out. So waiting in an empty restaurant, looks can be deceiving. For food, I order a chicken caesar salad wrap and a container of potato salad. The potato salad is definitely not made from scratch, well, if it is it's an awful recipe. It reminded me of the cheap store bought kind (you know, the stuff that coworker you dont like would bring to a company pot luck) with a harsh chemical after taste. My caesar wrap looked great! The exterior was slightly brown from a quick grill. Unfortunately its good looks gave way to dry fillings. The salad had next to no dressing and the chicken, while warm, tasted old. Bacon fell into the same category as the chicken, dry and off tasting, like it has been in the fridge for a few days. The upside of all of this, their pickles are delicious. While I welcome Cloud 9 to the neighborhood, Im very disappointed in the taste of the food I ordered. Hopefully when I visit again I'll be adding a 4-5 star review.

Found them on Yelp after arriving to my hotel for a convention. They weren't the closest by any means BUT they had the best reviews, so the extra 15 minute walk was more than ok with me! Holy cow, I woulda walked 3x that long if I had to for their spectacular sandwich!! Not only that, the people working were all super nice. Like a jerk, I cannot remember my guy's name but he had a nice, full beard and hooked me up with a free dessert just to be nice. Extra cherry on top was the Kona beer on tap! Highly recommend to locals and anyone visiting SD! read more

Stopped here as I was around downtown walking around. Pretty large menu and they serve breakfast lunch and dinner all day. Also serve smoothies, flatbreads and wraps. Little beer on tap selection but no idea what they were. Place seems fairly new and is still getting their feet under them, but it's definitely worth a try. Staff is great and friendly, food came out fairly quickly. Some outdoor seating and a few spots inside so maybe more of a grab and go spot, but overall pleased and I'll come back. read more

First of all, Chef Alan and the manager (sorry, I didn't get his name as we had a casual conversation on the patio after he was off work) were welcoming and made me feel like part of their family. The menu is full of choices to fit every palate and food preference. Now to the food! YUMMY! I ordered the French Dip and the Pepperoni and Mushroom flatbread. Both were fantastic. The French Dip has a nice little surprise with fried onions on the sandwich - nice added texture. The jus was tasty, perfectly seasoned and delicious with the sandwich. The meat on the sandwich was also tasty, not fatty at all (which I am always worried about!). It was tender and again, the seasoning was perfect! The flatbread - Chef Alan asked if he could put the mushrooms under and of course, I said yes. He shared this one little modification would keep the mushrooms firm and delicious and he was right. The flatbread was covered in cheese, pepperoni, and mushroom caps. SOOOOO good! It's a little place on the corner, near Petco Park, and it's so worth every penny and if there is a wait, the wait... I am a bit worried as I live 2 blocks away and it could become a new addiction pretty quick! read more

I really love this deli because they use fresh ingredients and have plenty of options! The workers are friendly and the ambiance is nice. It's usually crowded during lunch and before Padres games. Their burger is really tasty and the meat is high quality. The sandwiches are full of flavor and refreshing. It's nice that they offer clear to-go containers so you can take the food in to Petco Park. I have been here twice now and I will continue to visit for a delicious meal!

My husband walked by this place, popped his head in, and looked at the menu. Then he asked what was good to the person behind the counter. He said, "Everything!" My husband asked about organic ingredients and the guy said, "the veggies are organic." My husband asked about the meat. The guy kind of shrugged and shook his head. However, my husband came back to the hotel room and said that we needed to eat there. So the following morning, we did. We walked over from the hotel we were staying at. Cloud 9 is located in the East Village down the street from Petco Park. We ordered the Pastrami & Egg sandwich, the Steak & Egg sandwich, and a Pecan bar. We had a nice conversation with the guy (different employee) at the counter and waited for our food to be ready. I didn't realize that they had just opened in the last few months. Let me just say, we wish we had a deli like this in our own neighborhood. This place is legit good. We cut our sandwiches in two and shared. Both were really good but the pastrami & egg was the favorite of the two. I really liked the soft brioche, crispy hash brown, and savory pastrami. It was a really nice combination. Plus, each sandwich came with a small fresh fruit cup. The pecan bar was a little on the sweet side and I could only manage a bite or two at a time. The service is 5 stars and the food is off the charts good. We hope to revisit when we are in San Diego again. read more

Opened for less than two weeks, the ownership of Pepper Farm Deli (PFD) in Santee has replaced a bagel shop in the East Village with Cloud 9 Deli. This area of downtown near Petco Park can be hit or miss with curbside parking depending if there is an event at the baseball stadium. Seating was limited to a few tables outside on the sidewalk and several more inside the suite. Five tall menu screens hung above the service counter with a vast array of choices. According to the owner (John), the selection here was less than PFD. Starting from the right screen and moving to the left, there were breakfast items, smoothies, soups, flatbreads, sides, salads, wraps, cold sandwiches, low carb plates, chicken classics, burger creations, and hot sandwiches. That seemed like a comprehensive set of offerings to me. From the list of nine cold sandwiches, I chose the Cloud 9 Beef Grinder. The ingredients were London broil roast beef, havarti cheese, romaine lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, bell peppers, pepperoncinis, and pickled onions on a Dutch crunch roll. The sandwich was cut in half and placed inside a clear plastic takeout container with a dill pickle spear included. The meat was thinly sliced and layered in between all of the other components. The pepperoncinis and pickled onions added sharp bursts of tartness to cut through the protein and carbs. The crunch of the bread provided texture and chewiness. For the value and quality of my sandwich, I gave my visit to Cloud 9 Deli a rating of 4.5 stars. read more

East Villagers here is a new lunch spot to add to your faves! I have been here 3 times and the food has been great and the guy at the counter is always so cheerful, and very helpful regarding the menu. Speaking of the menu, it's actually pretty large for such a small spot! The first time I came across it i thought it was some convenience store lol. Not only can you order amazing sandwiches, but they have pizza, burgers, plates, salads, desserts, macaroni and potato salads, soups. It's definitely geared more towards us meat eaters for sure, but some options are meatless and they have smoothies too! I've tried the filet mignon sandwich which wasn't quite as big as the picture online, but I really enjoyed it as the meat was so tender and had some good flavor to it. The Cloud 9 burger was juicy, and huge! I couldn't quite finish it although I tried because it was so tasty. The side of fries may have filled me up also, which I think we're pretty solid as well. I've also tried the macaroni salad which they do make in house, and I would definitely recommend trying it if you like that sort of thing. It had a tang to it that was just the right amount for me. This place is definitely one of my new faves and I plan to try different items each time I go, as so far everything has tasted great. read more

I often pass by this spot while walking my dogs, and it's always bustling with people. After seeing their great Yelp reviews, I decided to check it out. I stopped by around 4:30 PM on a Thursday and found plenty of seating available--both inside and in two covered outdoor areas. I ordered the Cubano sandwich along with a Pupil IPA. The food was brought out to me, and they even gave bacon to my dogs, which was such a nice touch. The staff was incredibly friendly, and the food was outstanding. The portion was generous, but it was so tasty I couldn't resist finishing it all. Between the delicious food, welcoming service, and fair prices, I highly recommend this place. read more
