We went here a second time and got a slice or pizza to try that and it was delicious also. We tried multiple sandwiches and they were all good. I can't believe I didn't have any pictures of the food. I guess it was just so good that I didn't have time to take the photos as I just wanted to eat it. They have some seating outside which is nice. Covered.

Mammamia Deli Market - Gino & Gianni's Pizzeria located in La Mesa borderline Spring Valley. Let's…read morejust start off with... WOW, the BEAUTY of this market as well as the pizzeria! The market specializes in AUTHENTIC ITALIAN items. From fresh pasta to exotic cheeses and homemade sauces! A wide range of beverages (I have never heard of or seen before) as well as gelato! They have their own parking lot but, it can still be challenging as this appears to be a very popular spot! Customer service was good on the deli side which is located on the market side of the venue. We ordered a Specialty Sandwich as well as a sub from their Sub Menu. Besides sandwiches, the deli offers meats, cheeses, and antipasta choices. We ordered: Octopus salad - perfectly cooked octopus Pasta salad - A tad bit too al dente for my liking Mammamia torpedo sub from Sub Menu - delish... The Godfather from Specialty Sandwich Menu - AMAZING flavor if you enjoy that sweet and savory flavor profile! Gino & Gianni's Pizzeria is a seperate area of the market which is accessible while in the market or directly from the parking lot. They offer inside dining as well as patio dining. Customer service was AMAZING at the pizzeria! Pizzas were phenomenal! Although I did not try them, the garlic knots looked amazing as well! We ordered: Mushroom pepperoni slice - good in flavor Sicilian style Honey-Roni pizza - Square in shape and appeared to be deep dish style. AMAZING in flavor! Gino & Gianni's Vodka-Roni special slice - AMAZING!!! Something about that touch of hot honey that just elevates the flavors to a whole other level!!! So sad I am barely finding out about this place yet so happy I FINALLY DID and plan on being one of their regulars. If in the area... do yourself a favor and treat yourself to some AMAZING eats! YOU'RE WELCOME in advance!

The place was perfectly clean. Menu: there's a lot going on there. If you tend to get visually overwhelmed, maybe look up the menu before coming in. This is why I got a salad to begin with. Two stars because I didn't really get what I paid for, the chicken.

We tried the Roast Beef, Meatball and Spicy Italian-like Sub Sandwiches and came away impressed. There is also a bar, with lots of local beers. Our three Subs and two drinks ran us around fifty.

[Grilled chicken breast, sweet barbecue sauce, melted provolone cheese] I was expecting bold, smoky BBQ flavor, but it was surprisingly sugary sweet and didn't stand out from an average bbq chicken sandwich. It wasn't bad, just only memorable because it was southern sweet tea sweet and not as tasty as the other items.2/5 stars The Down side.. Ordering time and Price $$ & BBQ Chicken Sauce. Order-ahead ,way ahead because even though its a great sandwich ,we ordered 6 total and we wound up waiting up to 1 hr 10 minutes for my order quoted at 30 minutes for pickup we stood by the counter for 30 mins still waiting for the food to be done after giving the 43 minutes before we even arrived for the pickup. Gourmet prices for a 8 inch sub, and that BBQ chicken sandwich take away 2 stars for total experience. THE LIQUOR STORE The attached liquor store was an amazing addition with an impressive selection that honestly could make BevMo blush. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and eager to help. I met Chilean aka Chillin and he had many suggestions and nearly everything I was looking for--except my favorite Sandeman ,10-year 20-year or 40-Year Tawny Port or Sandeman White Port. No worries though, because the tequila, whiskey and Gin I wanted that evening were well stocked and easy to find, and well priced. 4/5 stars for no Sandeman Product in the entire store. IAfter reading about 30 5 star reviews of this place wanted to give this location 5 stars ...... so here's goes. Overall, Cheers Deli is well worth the visit for its incredible sandwich variety ,outstanding liquor selection and genuinely welcoming staff. I'll definitely be back for round 2 before the summer is over.--4/5 stars

Watch out other sandwich chains out there cause Grove Grinder IS WHERE IT'S AT!!!! They have been in business since 1972...NUFF SAID! I ordered the Ann Special with everything on it. They do not skimp on meat and the proportion of bread to meat to veggie ratio is spot on! A full size sandwich is enough to feed two people easily or one very hungry person. I did not try any of their side items or large selection of root beer drink options to choose from but, I will be back many more times to try all they offer! Thank you Grove Grinder for amazing eats and allowing me to snap all my photos of your small shop for my review! If in Lemon Grove, show some love to Grove Grinder and grab you one of their amazing affordable, delicious subs...YOUR WELCOME IN ADVANCE!

I'm a little heartbroken about this because I had a 5-star review drafted up for this place that…read moreread: "Grove Grinder is the GOAT of neighborhood sandwich shops. Over the years that I've been coming here, I've been pleasantly surprised to find that the quality, portion size, and price point has kept pace with inflation and remains the best sandwich option in East County." I'm certainly not the longest-running customer of this spot, but I have been coming to Grove Grinder ever since I moved to the area four years ago. I kept coming back, wrote rave reviews in San Diego food-related social media groups and threads, bugged food influencers about them, and sent many of my friends and family their direction because I was that big of a fan. My husband and I have taken these sandwiches on roadtrips and plane rides, grabbed them in the middle of household chores, and picked them up for each other when the other is too tired or sick to cook. The reason why I'm ultimately knocking this review back and heavily questioning whether I should return has to do with a disappointing experience from my last visit with my husband that we now think was part of a larger pattern. The past couple of times we saw this person at the register, we used my name for the order. This time, though, my husband gave his name instead and the person at the register gave him some attitude about it and asked "You're *really* going with that?" I don't understand what their problem was with his name, but both the person in the front and the staff in the back refused to use it. They called out everyone else's names (and they usually call out mine when I order) and we noticed that our sandwiches were looking skimpy compared to how stacked we know they can come. My husband uses a nickname that might not be the name he was given at birth, but is a name he has used for over 20 years and might as well be his "real," name. We don't want to make assumptions, but most of the staff has always been at least a little cold towards us at best, slightly rude at worst, and even though this experience might seem relatively small to some, it's ultimately the straw that broke the camel's back. We suspect that their distaste for us might be politically motivated. We know it can't be personal because we've been nothing but polite. It sucks, but it seems to be that if they perceive you to not be "their people," your money isn't as green at their establishment, even if it spends all the same. I loved this place and felt lucky that they're close to my house, but feeling disrespected and like the staff are trying to fire us as customers is enough motivation to take our business elsewhere.

If you want quick, comfort food it seems the spot. I will say the potato salad has a liquid ish base to it and no other spices or veggies inside. The sandwiches lack a lot of flavor and excitement. I think this spot is perfect for a shopping center where you wanna carb up and just get with the family a quick meal. Everyone was so nice but if you're into food with flavors and spice and excitement I think it's a pass. I'd be back for some muffins at the register and a friendly waitress however.

They were running two back-to-school sandwich specials with one for $10.99 and another for $16.99. Personally, almost $17-$20 for a sandwich didn't really feel like much of a special. The service was definitely the highlight of my visit. The cashier was incredibly friendly, offered great recommendations, and the woman working behind the deli counter was just as welcoming. I ordered the: *Jerk Turkey Sandwich: you can choose from white, wheat, sourdough, a roll, or an onion roll for an additional $3. I went with white bread. I was expecting more of a deli-style hoagie or Subway-style sandwich, but it ended up being served on two slices of sandwich bread. It tasted good, but it honestly reminded me of something I could easily make at home. There just wasn't much of a wow factor. The sandwich came with pickle spears and your choice of macaroni salad, potato salad, or another deli side. The side portion was fairly small, a couple of bites worth, but the macaroni salad was great. My total came to nearly $15, which felt pretty expensive for a sandwich on sliced bread and a small side. While I really appreciated the friendly service and enjoyed the food, I didn't think it offered enough value for the price. Overall, it was a decent lunch, but not memorable enough to make me want to return.
