Had a hankering for a sandwich and decided to try this place out and I'm glad I did. Goddess Venus was working behind the counter and helped me decide between a hot pastrami or a Reuben, I ended up with a very tasty hot pastrami. I also liked that they offered a variety of exotic chips as I'm always on the look out for something different. I did however, skip on the squid flavored chips and went with BBQ - don't judge me - I also liked the gelato dessert offerings. The parking was adequate and the eating area was large, well lit, and inviting. I also got to speak with the owner himself.
Clean and plenty of seating. They have a ton of chip and drink options, as well as potato and macaroni salad. Gentleman working was extremely kind and helpful. I chose to build my own and it was amazing! Im a sandwich lover and this was a delicious great priced sammy. My daughter got the exact sandwich I did and she loved it as well. They were good sized too, I ate half and had to the other half for later. I'm so excited I found this place so close to home.
This was my first time to visit Deli Belly. I'm from New York and a love a good deli sandwich. I ordered the New York ham and Swiss on rye and I was not disappointed! They have a nice selection of rolls and bread. The rye bread was soft and fresh. They use Boar's head meat, so of course the meat was great. I usually only eat 1/2 a sandwich, but it was so tasty that I kept going for "just one more bite". So good. They carry Dirty brand potato chips and had my favorite, Maui onion. They carry bottles drinks as well as fountain drinks. There's a good selection to choose from. You can dine inside or out. I chose the inside. The deli was clean and organized. There are big windows that let in a lot of sunlight. Justine made my food. She was friendly. I enjoy good service! I'll be back!
Service: was fine and attentive Food: the sandwich it self was filling. I got a chipotle Gouda sandwich one of their selections, it comes with chipotle Gouda and chipotle chicken and chipotle mayo which where the main taste of the sandwich not so much the mayo. It also has avocado and pepperoni but I did not notice them much. It could use extra avocado as only one of my half's had a decent portion the other side had a smear of avocado. Ambiance: the space it self is very open and clean with music playing. Relax setting to eat a sandwich
I was looking for a new deli in the area and found Deli Belly; Thankful!My sandwich was amazing. The bread was soft. The sandwich was perfect & was delicious! The service; the two girls, were friendly, both with smiles & both very helpful since it was my first time at the Deli. The whole deli was, big clean lots of places to sit, inside & out! There's a variety of desserts, drinks, chips and gelato bars. Definitely can't wait to go back again.
I was pretty underwhelmed with my sandwich. It was my first time visiting and I wasn't familiar with the menu. One thing that really didn't help was the very tall counter that made communicating with the employees more difficult. My wife, who is, let's say... not tall, had an even more difficult time and basically I had to play telephone between her and the employee to communicate her order. I got the Frankie and was asked what kind of bread I wanted. I didn't really know what kinds of breads they offer and expressed that to the employee and they basically looked back at me like "git gud at ordering" so I picked sourdough because as I frantically searched for the information on their menu board that's the first thing I saw. Later I read the menu description and it says it comes on a sub roll and I think that would have really made the sandwich better. Overall it was a bit on the bland side. I did have them hold the mayo so maybe I should have asked for extra Italian dressing, but with the sourdough bread that might have made things really soggy. I don't live in the area so unlikely that I'll get a chance to try them again. There were three places right in that area that we were considering eating at and I feel like we would have been happier getting Pho or Greek nearby.
This shop looks small from the outside, but they're quite spacious indoors! They have lots of seating, and large fridges full of cold drinks. There's also a HUGE display of chips at the front counter. The staff I met today were a bit shy/ quiet, but really quick. They recommended the white loaf with the spicy Italian sandwich ingredients. I really enjoyed my food! My sandwich had a great balance of pepperoni, salami, lettuce, beefsteak tomatoes, jalapeños, mayo, and spicy mustard. The French loaf tasted really fresh as well. Toasting it was a good choice for sure!
This is an above average sandwich shop. Not the best and there are others in San Diego I would go to first. However, this place does make a good sandwich. It's a no frills place and they have great options for toppings with a great chipotle mayo sauce. I got the chipotle sandwich in a spinach wrap and it was loaded with meat. There really is no ambiance so this is a grab and go type place. No service to be amazed by because even the employees treat this as a grab and go place; get your food and they are in to the next customer.
Deli Belly is slowly making its way farther west in East County with this new outpost in La Mesa. They occupy a corner suite in a strip mall off Parkway Drive where parking was plentiful in the lot. The inside had a lot of empty space presumably due to the chairs and tables being put away because of no indoor dining allowed. Boar's Head meats and cheeses were featured ingredients for their sandwiches. The menu had about 25 cold and hot signature sandwiches priced at $9.95 each. I chose The FA which contained top round corned beef and pastrami along with cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, and 1000 island dressing on an onion roll. The sandwich was neatly assembled and tightly wrapped in wax paper. The meats were of high quality and the dressing complemented all of the other ingredients nicely. The worker was pleasant and patient while I took the time to scan over the menu board. For price and quality, I gave Deli Belly a four star rating.
This is Deli Belly's third location. I've been to the location in El Cajon several times with good results. This time around I thought everything was just okay. I had the Firefighter which came with turkey, roast beef, and bacon on a squaw roll. I asked for deli mustard to be added to the sandwich but they did barely put some on the sandwich. Although the sandwich was tasty, I thought the sandwich could of used more roast beef and turkey. Given the ratio of the thick bread, I could not get a good taste of the beef and turkey. Also, the bread was a little on the try side. Everything else was fine, the lettuce and tomatoes were fresh, but one layer of Provolone cheese is just not going to cut it. I want to taste it! The place is nice and clean and they offer a small amount of outside seating.
Pretty good sandwiches at very good prices. A nice surprise is that sandwiches are built FAST. You won't be waiting for 20 minutes as you do at Cheers Deli up on Navajo. Speaking of Cheers Deli I would say Deli Belly slots itself in the middle between Submarina on the lower end, and Cheers on the higher end. Freshness is very much there, but quality leans to standard. It's consistent and of nice quality but it's not too much different than something you could make at home since they're using Boar's head products. Their bread however is spongy, airy, and delicious. Prices are super reasonable. An 8.5 inch classic sub, a bag of chips, and a soda will run you $13.
This place is a gem! I probably have had most of the sandwich and wraps in this place. So far, no issues whatsoever. Great customer service delicious food. The portion leaves you super full after the meal. Heck! You might have to take them home...but you should eat it the same day. It will get soggy!! Not their fault but yours :) Good music, clean and very breezy. You wont be sweatin. My overall score for this place is 5/5. This place deserves much more. Thank you Deli Belly.
I dont normally write reviews like this... But this one truly bugged me. This is is hand down the lamest cold sandwich I've ever bought. There is a single layer of every meat, and it is all sliced extremely thin. Every veggie added is sprinkled on in extremely sparing amounts. The bread is massive, has a stale texture, and has an odd flavor. It is almost exactly like the bread on a 4 dollar sub from 711. The price of the sandwich was astronomical for the lame sandwich they provided.

First time here , clean place , friendly staff . Keep in mind they are by Orange Theory and if you try to get in this parking lot when they have classes , good luck ! Anywho ... we ordered two sandwiches , mine on onion bread my mom's toasted white bread . The ingredients were fresh but there was nothing " wow " about it . Just a sandwich . Maybe it's the type I tried ? There are a lot of good reviews , which is why we came here but I can't say that I was impressed unfortunately. I really wanted to be impressed but I wasn't. read more

Hidden gem in La Mesa. I always like to support local business especially family owned. The sandwiches here are excellent. This deli uses boar's head meats which is hands down the best. I had the chipotle so Gouda sandwich and it was very flavorful, full of quality toppings and chicken. The restaurant was clean and inviting. The manager Venus was very polite and had great customer service. I'm probably never going back to Jersey Mike's after trying this place. read more

Great sandwiches. Fresh meats, veggies and dressings. You can make your own sandwich to your liking..or select one ooff their menu. The service was welcoming and helpful on helping with sandwich to try. Inside is roomy with a few tables to eat your sandwich. No outside seating. If you're in the area, try them out. read more
I've been eyeing this deli for a min now because it's so close to my job and I love sandwiches. My wife was hungry great timing as ever so let's go I get her the varsity a simple turkey club on sourdough and I get the firefighter which is a turkey, roast beef and bacon sandwich on an onion roll, my wife likes clam chowder so I get her a small clam chowder. The service was excellent it was a young women and a slightly older women helping me the sandwiches came out quick and I was on my way. Problem number one the breads where switched not the biggest of problems but I know my wife and that through her off so after we changed breads she thought hers was cool mine was just like it read good sandwich. I would go back to eat it but I wouldn't go out of my way it's good quality food and good service so check them out. read more

For 13$ I expect more then 4 slices of meat. The bread taste raw so I definitely recommend toasting. 2 sandwiches for 30$ and neither was worth it read more

I had the BLT with avocado added on a white roll ( toasted) and this was super delicious. I highly recommend this place. I was driving by to go find a place to eat, and was actually heading to The Habit hamburger place when i saw this deli on a back street a few streets east of the habit. I decided to check it out. I love trying new deli places. There is something about a deli that is different. We this place is a must try. The two young ladies that we're working were so nice and sweet. I will definitely be back to try a different sandwich. They also have larger bags of chips which i love. read more

New Spot! Been twice now; very clean, friendly staff. You definately get a lot of meat which is rare for sandwhich places these days. Everything is fresh and they offer sides like soups and potato salad/macaroni salad which is great. Lots of chip and drink options. They also offer a customer card they'll punch each time you visit and get a free sandwhich after 10. So far we've got the Chipotle So Gouda (forgot pic), Firefighter, and Sweet n Smoky. Lots of customizable options and even some options for the kids! Overall: Refreshing new spot, will definately keep coming back read more
