    Tri-tip
    James Y.

    Another place found through Yelp and it was a good find. The place was really busy. The employees were nice and helpful. I went with the Tri-tip sandwich and a drink. The meat was very tasty and the bread was nice and fresh. This is definitely a return visit place. They have a good selection of other sandwiches too. They have places to sit inside so I was able to relax while I ate my food.

    Wow, just Wow!!!!! If you dont at least try this place, assuming you are in the area, something is definitely wrong with you. The most amazing Turkey, bacon , avocado on a French roll, that I have ever had... Fresh, fresh, fresh, is an understatement!! People were super friendly, non rushed, very pleasant, all around.... Had the 1/2 sandwich and soup. Soup was chicken and dumplings and it was amazing as well. Just overall a very great experience at a little corner sandwich shop. I walked from the Pilot truck stop about 40 min away. Needless to say, I will walk back here tomorrow for lunch again. Seriously, if you are on the fence, you should come over here if you want a great sandwich and or soup at a pretty fair price, even for California....

    Awesome place to come and grab a bite. Not only are the sandwiches delicious, but staff is extremely friendly. Its family owned deli and thats what you feel like from the moment you walk in.

    This was the special of the day. Not sure of the name of the sandwich but it had chicken, artichoke and jalapeños among other things.

    Best sandwich spot in Salinas, hands down. I have tried 3 different sandwiches, and they have all been delicious. Two of these have been daily specials. They also have salads, wraps, potato and macaroni salads, and pastries. Lots of goodies to try. I get full easily and pricing is decent. Their staff is friendly, and look happy to serve you. This place does get packed during the lunch hour so plan accordingly. They have a small parking lot, but customers make it work, and they do have a drive through. I do wish they were open on weekends! I highly recommend you try this place.

    Here's to you, Della Rose Deli. Your sandwiches and service were fantastic. I had the deli club , and my fiance had a turkey,swiss,avocado, and she loved it. Came in on a Wednesday afternoon, minutes ahead of the lunch rush, quickly realized we picked a great stop to eat on our way hack home as the place quickly filled up with a line for thru drive thru as well.

    My favorite spot to get a sandwich. The tri-tip is always cooked well . My go to spot whenever I need a quick bite to eat for lunch !! Scott the owner treats you like family whenever you come in too !

    So good! Been wanting to go here for a while. I finally made it. Just FYI NO APPLE PAY! So make sure you bring cash or credit card.

    Egg Salad Sandwich on Wheat Bread

    I don't have too much to say about this place but overall I enjoyed my sandwich. I came before the rush and drive thru worker was super sweet and patient with me while I chose my order, since it was my first time. I don't know if I'd say it was 10/10 experience, but it definitely satisfied my cravings with a refreshing, well seasoned sammy!!

    Best sandwich in town. Fresh everything, never gotten a bad sandwich even when they've mixed things up during lunch time rush hour.

    I wish I had more photos to share all the delicious treats and drinks I've ordered from this place…read morebut of course they are always too tasty that I forget to capture. Anyways, im so glad my coworkers told Me about this place because it's been a nice addition to my frequent-places-to-visit-on-the-regular list. Honestly there is nothing I've had from this place that isn't good. From their lemonades, coffee, smoothies to their avocado toast, wraps, sandwiches, and cookies. They really nailed down their menu options! Not to mention the biggest thing, their staff is super friendly, welcoming and patient when you're trying to decide what to order. They may be located by the courthouse in Salinas but don't let that stop you for visiting. You won't be disappointed! & if you happen to need to serve jury duty, this is a nice spot to go hangout and enjoy a little break from doing your service. Or on any day, with some indoor outdoor seating!

Everyone loved the sandwiches as the ingredients were fresh and they use Otto's sourdough! I wanted to make sure to leave a review for those that are looking to cater a luncheon, send them an email at villariveracafe@gmail.com. Their phone is weird because it is through the govt building and goes straight to voicemail. I also sent them messages on their social channels before finding the email and they responded there too lol... email is way better. When you are trying to find them, they are tucked away under what looks like a bridge of a building in the center of the campus behind two pillars. Sorry I didn't get a photo of the outside so I hope this description helps. Racquel the owner is the sweetest and I hope you all support this cafe!

We ordered avocado toast, French toast, banana pecan pancake, house potatoes, and an Aperol spritzer. My avocado toast was served on a single very thick piece of bread, which had a very generous amount of avocado smash and was topped off with this delightful and fresh arugula salad. I added an over easy egg for an extra charge that was the perfect balance. The house salad was simple with butter lettuce, cherry tomatoes, radish, cucumber, with a light lemon house dressing that brought the salad together. It was refreshing. The French toast is pretty standard. Nothing that particularly stood out. The banana pecan pancake was delicious and shared with everyone at the table. The house potatoes were extra crispy on the outside but soft on the inside, which I found particularly satisfying. Overall, we had a pleasant experience and found Portabello's to be a good brunch spot in Salinas. The service was fast, the food portions were big, the food tasted fresh, and it was a nice ambiance. I would definitely return for the avocado toast and potatoes. Side note - I noticed Caesar Salad was misspelled on the menu as "Caeser"

My boss and coworkers have been raving about this place for the longest time, and I finally decided to come check it out for myself during lunch. Safe to say, I completely understand the hype now and I don't regret it one bit! I ordered the fries with steak bites and they were absolutely delicious. Now here's the thing , I am not a dessert person. I almost never order dessert anywhere I go, but something told me to give the brownie a try, and wow, I am so glad I did. Finger licking good doesn't even begin to cover it. That alone is worth the trip! But what really made the experience stand out was my server, Jasmine A . She was a solid 10 out of 10 incredibly friendly, attentive, and just an overall joy to be served by. I am someone who takes customer service very seriously, and Jasmine is exactly the kind of energy every restaurant needs more of. She genuinely made the whole experience even better. If you're reading this and on the fence about coming don't hesitate. The food is amazing, the service is top tier, and it is absolutely worth every single penny. This won't be my last visit, that's for sure!
