    BIG YUM! I got the classic Turkey Avocado but added tomato, cucumber and pickled red onion and boyyyyy was I satisfied! So delicious, so filling and definitely has me wanting to come back for more!

    turkey: shaved turkey, lettuce, avocado, pepperoncini + dilly spread did its= $16

    If I had to guess, Dilly is the passion project of someone who clearly loves sandwiches and beer. Just a guess. And I appreciate and respect them for this endeavor. We ordered two: -turkey ($16): shaved turkey, lettuce, avocado, pepperoncini and dilly spread on sweet brown bread -ham & cheese ($16): honey- cured ham, pimento cheese, and potato chips inside white bread All the veggies in the turkey sandwich made it taste v fresh. The combination of crunchy lettuce and creamy avocado was really nice play on textures. There is an absence of cheese on the sandwich though the dilly spread did its part. It's a solid turkey sandwich. In contrast with the turkey sandwich, we ordered the ham & cheese which is like a version of ham & cheese on steroids. They sub out the cheese for a pimento spread and add in potato chips for an added crunch. I liked that it's served on unpretentious white bread which gives it 90's school lunch. Such a fun sandwich. Highly recommend ordering the mac salad. The version here is light on the mayo but still delivers a nice punch. I'll definitely be back to try their other creations.

    We're always on the hunt for a food sandwich and Yelp lead us here! When in Long Beach, one of the first things you thing about is parking. There was plenty of parking on the street and the parking lot. When you enter, there are long tables for larger parties on the left, and smaller tables for two on the right. They serve beer and wine. We didn't imbibe, but everyone else seemed to enjoying themselves. Their sandwich selection is solid. Something for everyone. I ordered the Dilly (Cucumber, avocado, peppers, sprouts and cream cheese on sweet bread) and hubby got the Hot Pastrami. Vegan cream cheese is available, but I like the real thing!

    Heard about Dilly's Sandwiches having the most unique rotating set of beers on tap in Long Beach, so had to come to try it. The taste portions were very reasonably priced, allowing to create your own flight (or two). Specifically scheduled an early afternoon to come to the Lakewood Village neighborhood of East Long Beach. My wife found an angled parking spot right in front. It wasn't too crowded inside and the four of us found easy, comfortable seating in the brightly decorated dining room. One places and pays for the order at the counter, with the proprietors being very friendly and engaged. They brought out our beers after the pour, and the sandwiches a bit after (since each is individually carefully made). Beers: - Northern Lager [Oxbow] - ($5 for 13oz pour) was clean, crisp and a hoppy aftertaste. - Infinite Hotel [The Wayfinder X Bierstadt] (marked as $3 but charged $4) is a rice lager and was the favorite of the group for its drinkability - Winteruption [JK's Farmhouse] ($3) is a cider with very strong maple syrup overtones: never tasted anything like it. - Hyper Paradise [Rare Barrel] ($4) - saison and ale with mango and passion fruit. I liked this beer very much. - A Place Like Home [Pure Project] ($3) - Nitro poured Extra Special Bitter. - Double Negative [Grimm] ($4) - Imperial Stout, which I really enjoyed. - Amongst Friends [Sante Adairius] ($4) - a cherry saison, unusual and was glad to sample. A lot of work was put into creating this flight, with the careful pours and markings to make sure I knew what was what. I really appreciated the opportunity to sample all of these on-tap. In terms of the food, the group as a whole really liked them, though I guess I wasn't as impressed with my two samples, mainly because it used non-descript deli meat in OK quantities, heating them up when necessary. Hot Beef ($18) was my wife's, and it had been griddled with cheese to form a crispy lattice. The Ham and Cheese ($16) was served cold and had potato chips inside which my mother-in-law liked (saving the other half for home). Our friend and I split the Hot Turkey ($16) and Pastrami No 19 style ($20). The pastrami meat was piled high and the cole slaw was crisp and good, but was served cold (should have read the description more closely) and mediocre rye bread broke apart quickly. The Hot Turkey ($16) was served on ciabatta that had been grill pressed for a long time, creating a wonderful crust as good as any sandwich I've had. But the filling was OK, using standard turkey breast slices from a loaf and an ok stuffing...using hand carved turkey would have made a big difference here, but understand it's hard to do. Strangely, even though it's a pickle adorned shop, each sandwich just came with an ordinary pickle spear, what one would expect from a diner, not a deli. And the prices are on the higher side, especially with no sides and most not being particularly ginormous. But I loved how each sandwich used different breads, and how some of them were toasted very well. And having the opportunity to try these unique beers made it a really good experience.

    Have been following this place since they were still renovating the location, so I was long overdue for a visit. As a pickle lover, the name alone had my full attention. This is a cool little spot tucked right into the middle of a cute, warm neighborhood. The gentleman who helped us was very friendly and welcoming. We ordered one cold and one hot sandwich to try, and the bonus? They have beers from local breweries on tap--yay! He even recommended two beers based on what we like, and both were great. Each sandwich comes with a pickle, and let me tell you, those pickles did not disappoint. They also have board games available, making it an all-around cozy, chill spot to grab lunch and enjoy a fresh cold beer.

    Another great visit to Dilly's. One of our favorites sandwich spots for a weekend lunch! We ordered the Hot Turkey Sandwich (limited Holiday Special). OMG so delicious. We decided to split the dandwich knowing Dilly's generous portions (we often leave with a whole sandwich when we order two and enjoy later!) and didn't think this sandwich would make a good leftover! Turkey, stuffing, and cranberry relish on grilled ciabatta. It was the perfect combination and paired well with the ciabtta! The breads at Dilly's are the best! We added a side of potato salad, again generous portion and fed us both! Price points are great especially the quality and quantity they provide. We both ordered and beers and very pleased with the offerings ate our selection. The staff knows their beers! Super nice staff. They greet you upon arrival, check on you while dining, and greet you when you leave. Very service oriented! We look forward to our next visit!

    Hot Beef Sandwich was amazing! Overall cute vibe in this neighborhood. Beers on tap, plenty of seating. We were greeted right away and given great communication on when our order would be ready. I thought the Reuben was only okay. With tip, we got 2 sandwiches, 2 bags of chips and it was $53. It seems pricey for a sandwich place but if you don't mind price it's worth trying out.

    Pastrami
    Rosa R.

    I love sandwiches and I was so excited to try this deli. We got two sandwiches. Pastrami and tuna. My husband loved his pastrami sandwich. Flavor was good. I had the tuna, and sadly I felt robbed. Flavor of the tuna was good however I had very little tuna. More lettuce than anything. Also bread was dry . Paying almost $50 for two sandwiches was a big disappointment! I don't mind paying for a good sandwich but this place needs to do better if prices are so high.

    FOOD: I have been eager to try Dilly's. I had the turkey sandwich, my friend had the pastrami sandwich and we also tried the chili. I liked my sandwich, but felt there were too many peppers on it. The turkey was fresh, smoky and delicious. I didn't try the pastrami sandwich, but it looked good and my friend kept commenting on how delicious the pickle was. I really liked the chili. There are no beans and it comes with a nice slice of toasted bread. I chose sourdough. I also had an IPA from ISM brewery. It was refreshing. I was really impressed by their beer wall. SERVICE: the service was friendly and professional. Shout out to Rory. Lots of people came in for dine in and takeout. Everybody looked very happy. AMBIENCE: I love this little area of Long Beach. The restaurant is very cute inside but the chairs suck.

    PERFECT FOR A HOT DAY I'm the type of dude that walks around Disney with a pickle and tajin. Perfect for pickle lovers, everything has a tinge of pickle. I got the turkey. Huge tender chunks of turkey lathered in some type of dill aioli. It's massive, but really good. Comes with a side pickle. Worth 15 bucks. Plenty of parking around and a chill environment. I'll be back.

    Let's be real saving the other half of that turkey sandwhich for later ended up being the snack on the way back home because it was sooo good. I rarely crave sandwhiches, but these had me thinking about going back for more for days. The texture and flavor of everything was just so PERFECTLY BALANCED. I could literally eat here everyday! The turkey sandwhich was my favorite! Something about that combo with the dilly spread & creamy avocado & crunchy pepperocini! Also, I actually enjoyed the peanut butter and sweet pickle sandwhich because they used that good crunchy peanut butter and the pickles were soaked in a nutmeg and cinnamon brine so it added the perfect juicy crunch & flavor to cut the thick gooey peanut butter. Next time I'll definitely follow Courtney's way with adding bacon to it! I'm just imagining if it had candied bacon or even a caramelized bacon jam to make it a pb&J‍ would satisfy any pregnant woman's cravings & even hangovers too. They have weekly events for family & friends & I was told that their beer selections are amazing! Thank you to the owner Rory & the employee Courtney for hosting methey were so welcoming and I'll definitely be back for that turkey sandwhich & more! Ig/tiktok/youtube:@rachiesayang : 1.

    Hot Ruben sandwich and beef sandwich and potato salad
    Clarissa T.

    Got their hot Ruben sandwich and beef sandwich and both were really good! I personally enjoyed their beef sandwich more because it came with horseradish sauce which was so good! The sandwiches came out hot and delicious and was perfectly crispy. They put so much meat inside these!! The potato salad was also great! Very flavorful and creamy! The pickles were big and juicy! The place is really huge inside so lots of seating and it is pickle themed so really cute! Would recommend this place!

It's a super small space (very intimate and cozy) so definitely make reservations ahead of time. We showed up very late our resy but thankfully our table was still available when we got there! I tried reaching them over the phone multiple times to let them know we would be late but it's impossible to reach them, so that's the only thing I would suggest for improvement.

We stopped by late Saturday night and were able to snag an immediate walk-in at the bar at Hao Peng You, which is the intimate speakeasy portion of Midnight Oil. The decor definitely reminded me of my grandparents' house in Taiwan, with vintage, ornate wooden chairs, dragon/lion statue carvings, and even a historic century old marital bed that had been repurposed into a booth. The drinks were also VERY unique, with my favorite being Hua sheng (literally meaning peanut), which was crafted from a nostalgic childhood peanut milk drink. All our cocktails were crafted very well, to the point where I thought they were a bit on the lighter side since I couldn't really taste the alcohol. This section does get really busy though and only had one bartender who is making/serving drinks and taking orders, so do expect a bit of a wait. Overall, highly recommend checking out this vibey vintage Taiwanese-inspired speakeasy (that my inner history nerd was so excited about), and I'll definitely be back to try their food items as well as their two other bar/restaurant concepts!

Honestly thought it was the bar that we came inside. First impression, why did we need reservations.... Since we didn't know the hidden entrance. Well, it's a cool concept once we entered. There's a dress code so be advised. What I found out was the entrance of the speakeasy was through a phone booth that next to the pool table of Roxanne's bar. Once reservations is made, you'll received an email with a password to enter. Enter phone booth and to connect to the inside and they'll open the door for you. We had the first reservations I believe they opened at 7pm. We were the first group to arrive. As it was my first time, we had ordered bar food and were waiting for it inside the main bar. So half an hour was used from our time limit. The speakeasy, dark and moody but perfect for the place. Special crafted cocktails by the bartenders which were great. They also have food as well, found out later. We did try the meat pie, which it was just ok. Basically an empanadas, the pickle veggies accompanied it was my favorite. It was good but nothing major to rave about. The drinks were quite nice and tasty. What they offered on the menu did have a load of good choices. Tables scattered throughout as well as bar seating. There's a piano which maybe used for live music. Overall, the moody speakeasy vibe was great. Friendly staff and bartender made some great drinks. What we had to snack on, the meat pie was just ok.

It's clear the owners put a lot of thought and creativity into making their cocktails the centerpiece of the experience. That said, the execution didn't live up to the concept. The menu appears to rotate regularly, and while the drinks were certainly unique, most of the cocktails we tried were hit or miss. At roughly $22 per drink, I expected more balance and refinement. One cocktail started with flavors reminiscent of an Old Fashioned, but after the initial sip, the combination of bitters and fruit syrups created an unpleasant cough syrup like finish. We tried a mocktail as well, and it was mostly ice and soda water, with what seemed like a collection of syrups doing most of the heavy lifting. The drinks were creative, but many of the flavor profiles felt disjointed rather than intentional. The biggest issue, however, was the bar service and sanitation practices. I watched a bartender place a cucumber garnish into a glass using his bare hands, touching the entire garnish in the process. He then continued to take credit cards, cash, and other items before stuffing ice into additional drinks with his bare hands. Whether or not this technically violates health code standards, it certainly wasn't appetizing to watch and left a poor impression. Parking is another challenge. There is no dedicated parking, and unless you get lucky, expect to park several blocks away and walk. Overall, the atmosphere is a lot of fun and the cocktail menu is ambitious, but the drinks didn't justify the price point, and the sanitation concerns were hard to overlook. I wouldn't rush back, especially given the cost and parking difficulties.

I'm also aware that meeting everyone's expectations is impossible. To confirm my advice of needing some salt in the food I patrons the restaurant twice, two days in a row. The food needs more salt and I stand solid on that opinion. The service was great and I thanked Mel for taking such great care of us. Mel is a rockstar! Diversity score 1-5: 4 The restaurant definitely appeals to diverse crowds. It reminded of the days I frequented Marcus Samuelsson's Red Rooster in Harlem, NY. Go again score 1-5: 5, Absolutely. I do hope I don't have to keep bothering the server for salt and pepper.
