    Turkey Pesto Sandwich
    A L.

    Hidden gem, it's inside Chevron. They were giving out free bread while I was there (I can't do more carbs than I already ordered, otherwise I'd grab it). I ordered at 11:45 and asked to have it ready by 12pm, and everything went smoothly. Sandwich was delicious and flavorful! Will be coming back, it's very close to work for me. :) only think I didn't like though was that the prices are a little higher than what's on the menu (I paid $12, menu says $9). Inflation :/

    Updated menu prices

    These are current deli sandwich prices, previous ones are 5+ years old TBA ITALIAN AND CUBAN ARE MOST POPULAR

    Reuben Melt Sandwich

    Wow wow wow wow wowwwwwww! If you are looking for a local sandwich place that knocks it out of the park AND is fairly priced...check out Deli Luv! It's conveniently right off the highway and located in a Chevron gas station. The deli has Boars head meat and offers a make your own option! I opted for the Reuben melt and it was SO good. I will definitely be returning here for my regular post gym lunch

    Yummy panini sandwich! Turkey on cheese roasted herb bread , bacon, tomatoes, lettuce, onion, pepperoncinis, provolone. So good!!

    My first time eating sandwiches ever! I've heard about this deli shop inside of a Chevron gas station and car wash. Definitely a (hole in a wall) kind of place but try it out before you judge it's cover They have lots of options there; Hot, Cold Sandwiches, Bagels, even frozen yogurt around the other side for your sweet tooth after! My bf knew right away what he wanted so I just got the same as him since I'm a "newbie" here haha and we aren't picky/ like the same taste so I knew I'd be in good hands. ORDERED: Turkey sandwich on the herbed cheese bread (something like that), added bacon, mayo & honey mustard, lettuce, tomato, onion, pepperonicinis, and you can't forget to request to have it pressed in the panini maker with the cheese melted! WOW I was so surprised at how big the portion of this sandwich was & most importantly HOW DELICIOUS IT IS, such simple but fresh ingredients and you can taste it!! The bread is to die for too! Love that they have the option to get it pressed into a panini because when you eat it later the bread is not soggy at all, still has all that crispy goodness you want! Counter ladies we're both very sweet they took our order 8-10 mins before they closed but I HAD NO IDEA they closed earlier at 3pm until AFTER we got our sandwiches bc they were doing all of their cleaning so I was curious and looked at the hours and it said 3pm!! It was currently 3 mins before they closed when we got back into the car with food. LONG STORY SHORT they were soft spoken, sweet for not even mentioning to us they close very soon, or rushing us to order! DELILUV's attitude showed that they truly care about customer service! Now they have a customer for life WILL BE BACK SOON

    First, this is in a gas station, which is just kind of weird. Secondly the sandwich was very basic and stale. I was pretty disappointed.

Walked inside thinking I was just gonna grab a burger, and next thing I know I'm wandering around looking at all the meats, marinades, sauces, chips, drinks, and sandwiches like I was about to host a backyard BBQ for the whole neighborhood. This place is dangerous if you like to cook. I asked the guy behind the counter what I should order because I wasn't trying to make a bad decision. Without hesitation he said, Aged Burger and the Philly.....Say less. We grabbed those and ordered the fries extra crispy because that's the only way fries should be eaten. Man... everything was hella good. The burger was juicy, the Philly hit the spot, and those extra crispy fries disappeared way faster than I want to admit.... They've got plenty of outdoor seating too, so we just kicked back, ate, and enjoyed the vibe.

That said, I've noticed a few things lately that have made it a little harder to shop here, especially as the store seems to be getting busier and busier. The biggest challenge has honestly been the crowds. It feels like the popularity of the market has really grown, which is great to see, but it can make the experience a little overwhelming. I also think it may be worth considering a larger location at some point. Parking can be incredibly difficult, especially if you have a larger vehicle, and getting in and out can sometimes be a challenge. I also recently had an unfortunate experience with a few items I purchased. The girl who helped me at the register was very kind and bagged the majority of my items, but a couple of smaller items were left outside of the bag. I was in a rush and completely forgot to grab them before I left, even though I had already paid for everything. I realized it later and called the store to explain what happened. They were kind enough to put my name on a bag and hold the items for me, which I really appreciated. Unfortunately, when I came back later that week to pick them up, the items couldn't be found. It seemed like there was some miscommunication between the staff, which was really disappointing because I had specifically called ahead and was told they would be held for me. I completely understand that things can get misplaced, especially in a busy store, but it was frustrating knowing that I had already paid for the items and had made a trip back specifically to retrieve them. I also didn't have my receipt anymore because I had assumed everything had been placed in my bag, which I realize was ultimately my mistake. It's definitely something I won't let happen again. What was disappointing was that, even though the staff remembered me coming in previously, the items ultimately weren't replaced or resolved. I understand that mistakes happen, but I think this could have been handled a little better. Even with these issues, I still genuinely love Seaside Market and want to see it continue to do well. I know that growing crowds and increased popularity can create challenges, but I do think there are opportunities to improve the overall customer experience, especially when it comes to parking, managing the crowds, and communication between team members. The prices have definitely been climbing, and with the store becoming busier, it's getting a little harder to visit than it used to be. Still, there's a reason I've been coming here for years, and I'll continue to support the market. I just hope they're able to find ways to make the experience a little easier as the business continues to grow.

Now THAT was two reasons to come back. (Anything in the bread basket, like extra buns or bread was ours to keep and take home). Milton's can be Milton's again! I do hope the new owners (by the way there are new owners) get to read this. While I know bread and pickles costs the owners money, think about what they pay for advertising and their $5 off coupons. Instead, give the patrons something for nothing that is absolutely memorable.  Ok. Food wise, the regular corned beef is improved. Even if you forget to order lean, it's lean enough, not totally fatty like it was before. There are lots of menu options. I'm glad they've narrowed the menu down to be less overwhelming. It's my job, in these reviews, to tell our eaters and readers what to order when you go. I always have soup with a half a sandwich. Matzoh Ball Soup. Always good. Corned beef on rye. I grew up in New York. To me, it's just comfort food. I have a friend who regularly orders and loves the turkey plate, with stuffing, cranberry sauce, veggies and more.  Cranberry sauce, coleslaw and other portions are now skimpy. They used to use small white bowls and fill them. I have spent 3 decades creating Foodies Events taking people to breakfast/brunch, lunch & dinners from our groups San Diego Foodies and Carlsbad Foodies, and you've never seen a review like this, correcting the owners. I always promote where I go, telling you only what to order when you go. I am happy to have a Jewish Deli anywhere close by. And I know, if you didn't know how they USED to take care of you, it probably would not make a difference. But for all us 'locals' who raised our kids here, it does make a difference. For some of us, who come in famished (here's a dad joke: not fa-mished), a quick taste of that cinnamon raisin bread quickly puts you in gratitude that you picked this place to come to. Do I have to bring a 'bubbies pickle' with me when I go? Try their cucumber pickles. Let me know what you think. You now know what this chef thinks.
