    Guy's Over the Top Chicken Salad is what I didn't know I wanted
    Liberty G.

    There's a reason this shop has made Yelp's Top 100 nationally more than once! So much has already been said about the top notch customer service and the quality of the food that I won't regurgitate it all, I'll just add to the praise. After just two sandwiches, Guy's is already in my personal Top 5. I am incredibly picky about chicken salad (when it's not my own) but Guy's version is about 99% of the way to my heart. But then I ordered their the secret menu item the Life Changer aka Guy's Over the Top Chicken Salad. Game over. It slayed. I'm dead. I could have easily eaten ten of them. My mouth is craving one every week, even if my wallet isn't. As I'm writing this, my stomach is sobbing because they're closed on Mondays. The prices are spot on for the quality you get. If they charged a little more, I wouldn't be mad. They use high quality ingredients, well curated combinations, and the servings are generous and hearty. I'm already planning to try their soups for next time.

    Pics. I totally forgot I didn't post any pictures on my original review. Here's a couple from the other day :) I love how every sandwich feels like it's made with care. Even my turkey sandwich although it was not a grilled cheese, the cheese was melted on the sandwich, but the bread (which I changed to whole wheat from a roll that was standard on the sandwich) was untoasted, it was warm and, delicious. My husband got his go too, the triple pig, and he was very happy with it as well. I also got a cup of the chicken noodle soup which was so flavorful, but be careful cause their soups are incredibly hot! The service here is always top-notch! So good!

    I came here for lunch on my own the other day, and this is hands down my favorite spot for a hot pastrami sandwich. I don't usually order hot pastrami, but this is the one place that always changes my mind. It is sooo good! The cheese melts perfectly, the spicy mustard adds just the right kick, and I always add onions for a little extra crunch. I actually love sitting in there and enjoying lunch on my own it's such a comfortable, easygoing spot. Best hot pastrami in town, no question. To top it off, Guy at the counter is so sweet and fun to talk to. He'll even let you sample the chili, which is also super good I've grabbed that to go more than once! Highly recommend for a quick, delicious lunch with great service.

    Pretty good sandwich place. Portions are large and service is friendly. I had the "Life Changing" chicken sandwich. It was good, but probably too hyperbolic to call it life changing. It has a bit of a spicy kick, so be prepared for that. Husband had the soup and 1/2 sandwich combo which he gave a thumbs up.

    Chicken soup & meatball sub
    Sharon S.

    What a hidden gem! The staff is friendly, witty, and so knowledgeable! It was my husband and i's first time in and so they let us sample their chili & chicken soup. Both were delicious! My husband ordered the meatball sub and a small portion of the soup that was topped with homemade croutons. I ordered the nor cal sub on sourdough with all the fixings. Wow, the bread was so soft and flavorful and I appreciated they did not skimp on the deli meat. Overall a wonderful sandwich shop!

    Over the top chicken salad sandwich and side of tortilla soup
    Justin L.

    Whenever I'm in Roseville, this is my favorite place for my favorite sandwich, the over the top chicken salad sandwich! The owner is always there and always gives the best service and it's always clean! I got a half sandwich with soup, the half sandwich as big as some spots full sandwich. Hands down this place has the best chicken salad sandwich.

    This is our all time favorite place to have the best chicken salad sandwich! The service is always welcoming family feels and don't forget to grab a chocolate chip cookie on the way out it will be the cherry on the top. The chicken salad sandwich is my all time favorite it has pieces of apples for the sweetness and texture of a crunchy goodness. Always good vibes when we visit guys !

    Club with chicken salad
    Marni W.

    Got the club with chicken salad and it was soooooo delicious!! Worth every Penny with slightly melted cheese-yes please. Wish it was in Rocklin.

    The Kathy on Dutch crunch without onions
    Mia T.

    This sandwich was definitely worth the drive. I ordered the "Kathy" off the secret menu and it was super filling and full of flavor. Stock full of meat and veggies with not too much spread that the sandwich is wet. I also subbed in Dutch crunch bread as I can only get it when out in the bay or sac area. If you're a fan, I recommend doing the same. I came right at opening and received my sandwich within 10 minutes. There's a good amount of seating inside as well. A must stop for lunch in Roseville

    I stopped in at Guys for Lunch and tried the chicken salad sandwich, and it really hit the spot. The sandwich was fresh, the bread was soft, and the chicken salad had a nice balance of flavor. What I especially liked was the little kick of spice--it wasn't overwhelming, just enough to give it some personality. You can tell they put thought into the seasoning. The portion size was generous without being too heavy, which made it a perfect lunch. The staff was friendly and the service was quick, so it's definitely a place I'd come back to when I want something tasty and satisfying in the middle of the day. This is my go to after a visit to the dmv.

    Guy's for Lunch attracted me with its 1,000+ reviews and 5 star rating. I was in the area, plus craving a sandwich and remembered that I previously book marked Guy's - so my experience begins!... I logged onto the website to place a pick up order around 1:35pm, with a pick up time at 2pm. I arrived at Guy's at 1:53pm and as I was standing in line, a worker placed my order in the pick up area, talk about perfect timing! The workers were very nice, greeted me and said thank you on my way out. My husband ordered "The Awesome" with consisted of Turkey, salami, cheddar, avocado, cucumber, lettuce, tomato, mustard and mayo. This is a real hearty, thick, filling sandwich. Very fresh! I opted to build my own sandwich. Of course I built the perfect roast beef sandwich with alllll the fixin's. I loved how fresh the bread tasted. The ratio of veggies to meat was perfect. I was only able to eat half of my sandwich, so yay for left overs! There's a few reasons this spot has over 1,000 reviews! Good sandwiches, friendly service are just to name a few. Bookmark and or try today!

    "The Foodie"

    Stopped here completely on a whim and wow--what a gem. The sandwich (the foodie) and the antipasto salad were both incredible. Super fresh and you can taste the quality. Honestly, what made this place stand out even more was that the people who work here are so kind and welcoming. It's rare to find a spot that nails both amazing food and an experience that makes you want to come back, but this place does exactly that. If you're even remotely nearby, do yourself a favor and stop in. I'll definitely be back!

I ordered the Pad Mee Kow or Drunken Noodles with Beef just based off Yelp photos. I don't normally order this dish, but it's the best I've had. Noodles intact and not stuck together. Lots of beef. Not the most tender meat, so maybe pork would be better. On my next lunch visit, I ordered Pad Ka Prow with Ground Pork & Brown Rice and a small Crystal Noodles Soup. You can choose a spice level from 1 (mild) to 5 (most spicy). I chose level 3, but I probably would be happier with level 1 or 2. Choice of jasmine rice or brown rice. I enjoyed the chewy texture and appearance of the brown rice. Pad Ka Prow is tasty. I loved the Crystal Noodles Soup. It's seasoned well with lots of ingredients, like chicken, wood ear mushrooms, and Napa cabbage. There are 5 different soups that you can order as a Small portion, including Tom Yum, Tom Kha, and Wonton Soup. I look forward to trying more soups.

It was happy hour, so we enjoyed $1 off shumai and curry puffs. This was my friend's first time trying both, and all disappeared in both of our bellies! The curry puffs were filled with potatoes and vegetables, with the perfect hint of spice. Their Pad Thai is exactly how I like it, not too sweet and tangy. Our protein was shrimp and they serve such a large quantity that I had delicious leftovers for three days! We dined outside and enjoyed their large patio, and service from beginning to end was excellent, so much that one of the employees asked us if we wanted dessert in the end and excitedly convinced us to order the mango with the black sticky rice. The mango with sticky rice was already catching our eyes from the menu photos, so the server's excitement was enough for us to make our decision quickly! I looked through the windows and saw how beautifully decorated their interior dining area is. I highly recommend My Thai. Their menu is extensive, so anyone will find something to their liking.

I'm lactose intolerant and really sensitive to dairy so I asked about the cheese being in it. He confirmed it was in there, so I asked if they can just take it back- the waiter said no. I then asked if they can just take it off the bill because I couldn't eat it. He said no to that too. My husband doesn't eat meat and my son is lactose intolerant so it was going to be food wasted and money down the drain. I was pretty shocked because I've never been to a restaurant where they can't reasonable accommodate the guest. I then ordered my entree and the chicken was very dry and overcooked. I was not satisfied but I knew they wouldn't let me swap it for something else. Unfortunately I'm not going to rush to come back. The waiter was friendly enough but not accommodating. I get nervous when it comes to food allergies because now I know that some restaurants aren't disclosing food allergens which is actually not allowed. There are folks out here with life threatening allergies, so these places need to be careful. I'm glad I'm not one of those people but it's still disappointing.
