I've been driving by the deli on way to downtown for years but never had the opportunity to stop in…read moreuntil recently. The experience was a bit strange from the start and the two people working (one at the register and one behind the deli counter) were both pretty aloof. The individual working the register was too busy engaged in what I can only assume was a very engaging conversation with another customer and the one behind the deli was MIA for almost 10 minutes while I waited awkwardly, unsure if the deli was even open. When someone finally came to the deli counter, I decided to order, pay, and get out of there as quickly as possible. I ordered a reuben sandwich, grabbed a beer, and paid. Then I was prompted to leave a tip - I was a bit shocked by this that I didn't even know what to do. I instinctually hit 20% and it wasn't until I was in the car that I realized I just tipped on a can of beer I grabbed out of the fridge and for a sandwich that I waited 10 minutes for, just to place the order.. lol. All other things aside, the sandwich was okay. A pretty good reuben, but far from the best. The bread was super thin and not well toasted so it became really soggy. Soggy reubens are the worst. We've all had one before - the bread just disintegrated and it just started to fall apart. Overall, the sandwich was okay but there are far better places in town to grab a sandwich that will at least pretend they are happy you stopped by, and won't ask you for a tip for the privilege of doing so.

The rice alone is a standout, and I felt transported by the flavors. :)) I found the portions to be generous and an excellent value. This place is solid & I'll probably be adding the shawarma plates into my weekly meal rotation. Seriously, so good! Very fast service too!

The afternoon I went in I was getting pretty tired so I decided to get a bunch of to-go beers and ready made food to relax at the hotel. The store has a cozy character that comes with being loved. They had a lot of ready made food items, plus all the traditional stuff of other grocery stores. Prices were reasonable, especially with how healthy a lot of the selections are. It was a popular spot with many people doing their afternoon shopping. The beer selection was amazing for me, lots of Russian River and other regional staples. The staff was also friendly, both the beer stocker and cashiers. I highly recommend shopping here if you're in Petaluma.

The sandwiches are HUGE and could easily be shared if you're not super hungry. We ordered them to go, and they were kind enough to include paper plates for the picnic we had planned later, which was a really nice touch. Everyone was also really friendly and greeted us when we walked in, which made the experience even better. It took about 10 minutes for them to make everything. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a solid sandwich stop.

As soon as we walked through the door, the employees were attentive and incredibly helpful. There is a big menu on the wall but I couldn't read it well (forgot glasses in car) so the employee gave us a hard copy menu. Their sandwich selections are impressive. We decided to try their specials of the day: Chipotle chicken with avocado on sourdough Chicken parmesan on whole wheat roll I noticed that they were also offering a tri tip sandwich today. We'll give that a try next time. There are several tables inside. All were wiped down, chairs pushed in, and the ambiance was very comfortable. There was a constant flow of people either dining in or picking up their orders so this place is hopping! The gentleman who took our order delivered the sandwiches to us when they were ready. Sandwiches are large! They were heated through nicely. I took a bite of my husband's chipotle chicken and it was delicious with a nice little kick. I really loved my chicken parmesan sandwich too. Great combo of flavors and I could easily go on and on about their bread. I chose wheat and my husband had sourdough. Texture and taste were the best! I could only eat half so I wrapped my leftovers using the paper in my basket and sealed it with a toothpick. We waved good bye to everyone and thanked them for a nice lunch and headed to our car. As we were walking, a gentleman called us and brought us a bag for my leftovers! What an incredibly kind gesture. I can't remember the last time an employee went out of their way like that. That's the kindness they exude. Thank you for a very positive first experience. We will definitely be back again very soon.
