Every time I come here, I have the havarti turkey panini and it's amazing and I usually pair it with the potato salad. Service is great as well, we always love chatting with Hugo. The shop has a very homey and welcoming ambiance. We look forward to coming back! read more

Sandwich was ok. Was in the area and wanted a sandwich for lunch. This place popped up... the guy making the sandwich grab the bread out of a bag, the bread isn't even freshly baked. It's probably bought from somewhere like Smart and final... Although they do use Boars head meats they could put more meat and not even offer potato or macaroni salad on the side. The bread took away from the sandwich. :( I won't be back... read more

Hugo's Deli - Italian sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - Torrance, California

Hugo's Deli in Torrance is a hidden gem tucked away in a dark corner of a minimall. I have seen this place in passing for years and wondered if it was a real deli. It is real, unpretentious, and fabulous. The hot pastrami is excellent, packed with flavor and served fresh. Service is fast, making it a perfect spot for a quick lunch. Hugo and Rosa are super friendly. The sandwiches are as good as from Torrance Bakery, but Hugo's is more laid back. They have cool sports collectibles along the back wall. This includes hard to find LA Kings bobbleheads of Jack Johnson and Jason Allison. They have Dodger and Laker stuff too. read more

Really good sandwiches. Only gripe would be portion for price. I know everything is getting more expensive and smaller portions, but for $15, I expect a little more than a hand-sized sandwich. read more

Wife and I were seeking a different place to get a good sandwich. We came across Hugo's Deli on Yelp and decided this is the Place to go.The prices are reasonable considering Boars Head Meats are used. The Mrs ordered Turkey and Avocado Sandwich on Squaw Bread and the New Italian for me. The sandwich's can be customized with your choice of condiments as well as bread(the Squaw is a must) The owner Hugo politely greats you when you arrive and takes your order asking how you'd like your sandwich. There's adequate.seething, so we ate here . The place is cozy with a mellow selection of 70's music playing to make you feel comfortable while enjoying your lunch. I highly recommend everyone give Hugo's a try read more

Delicious food for a nice warm day! Shared an Italian sandwich with my mom. Sister had a tuna albacore sandwich! So satisfying

Today, I got a meatball sandwich and a potato salad Good soft roll. The meatballs reminded me more of a crumbled style, which I also like. The cheese was gooey. If I had to guess, I believe they use mustard and dill in their potato salad. Service was very friendly and prompt. read more

Defo recommend. The Tornado is the best sandwich they have by a mile and one of the best sandwiches in the South Bay. I've gotten this sando several times and it always delivers. The other sandwiches are fine with no other standouts, but no additional standouts required to get you that tri tip. Good deli with good people at good prices. Can't beat that read more

We went to Hugo's because I saw a video about his deli. It looked good. I ordered roast turkey with Havarti cheese and the works on sweet bread and it was delicious. I could order it again but I'm going to get something else when I go back. My husband loved his sandwich. Service was excellent. It was fast and, I guess, Hugo was very helpful. We plan on going back soon. read more

A hidden spot, fantastic food! Service was great. It was only one person running the place very nice guy & fast when making the food. The sandwiches felt like they were made with love !! It is a smaller shop, very clean & well kept. Definitely worth a try ! read more

Hidden gem! Just inhaled the Infinity wrap.... So delicious, just the right mix of greens, meat and sauce.

I wouldn't have known about Hugo's Deli if it wasn't for Yelp. It's a convenient location with lots of parking in the plaza. The whole plaza is a little run down but this place in a diamond in the rough. It's a small little mom-and-pop sandwich shop in a plaza on the corner of Madrona and Torrance. I ordered the New Italian to-go. The guy there (might have been Hugo?) was so very friendly and accommodating, he made my sandwich custom to my preferences. The New Italian, which also looked like their signature sandwich, as it was highlighted on their menu and at the counter, was amazing. Probably one of the best sandwiches I've had in the South Bay. Will definitely be back! read more

the sandwiches were okey . i saw the yelp reviews and decided to try it . The bread is store bought, so nothing stood out about that .The .place is clean service is good but other than that nothing really to say . Not a place that i would try again. read more

My allergies are wheat gluten dairy and soy I placed an order for lunch ( they close early and on weekends) they accommodated quite easily. Two hot pastramis mine no cheese and lettuce wrap for both sandwiches. I don't think they tell enough that their meats are gluten free they use boar head. The portion side was good everyone was really sweet. The inside has all these awards and pictures and menus. I think online I read the place was kosher I don't know how you look for those certificates. But I'm pretty sure if I asked they would tell me/ show me. I didn't see anything but you could see the kitchen and the service was great they have been around for twenty years! Insane right! read more

Owner is so nice! I walked in 4 minutes before closing and he was done for the day but still put the apron back on and made me a panini. He's a hero in an apron for sure! Also their turkey harvati panini is still as good as I remembered! read more

The deli's atmosphere is cozy and unpretentious, and the service is fast and friendly. Whether you're in the mood for a quick lunch or a casual meal with friends, Hugo's delivers every time. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area! Thank you Hugo and Rosie ! read more

Amazing sandwiches and wraps! The bread is fresh and they have a variety of delicious flavors. I highly recommend, my new go to lunch spot.

I'm not sure why people love this place so much. It's good but I've never found anything close to mind blowing here that deserves a 4+ rating. I've been here twice and have found the sandwiches to be of average size, reasonably priced, and of good (not great, not amazing) quality. There was absolutely nothing spectacular about their pastrami or corned beef. Sorry if you didn't agree but when you've got the NY Deli nearby and Caps and Corks up the street, this just isn't a MUST try in my book. The owner is very friendly and they prepare your order efficiently but other than that, it's just another sandwich place in my book. Sorry. read more

Just tried this place for the first time after seeing realtor Richard Haynes feature it on his Southbay hidden gems series on Instagram. Wow! How did I not know this place was here? I had that the turkey havarti sandwich that was recommended and suffice to say, the sandwich didn't make it home after eating a bite in the car. It was so good I finished it...can't wait to try more of their sandwiches. Also, owner Hugo is a gem. Super nice guy...Hugo's Deli gets 5 slam dunk stars based on my first visit! read more

Hugo is very personable and makes the best tasting sandwiches! We got ours to go but there are tables if you can't wait to eat. I had the corned beef and it was lean and tasty! I also liked the small Mac salad that came with the sandwich. Will come back for the tri tip sandwich next! read more

I was craving tuna so I used my handy dandy Yelp app to help me find a place with a tuna sandwich. Lord & beyond Mr Hugo's deli has appeared on the list. It wasn't far either which was perfect considering I was on a lunch break. I placed my order online through the Yelp app and it was already done when I had arrived for pickup. It was mad banging. It's a tad sweet and I assume because of the relish that was in the tuna. I got it on a French roll and it's a really good size for the price. I'll be coming back for sure! read more

Hugo's Deli - Italian sandwich, Aranciata Pellegrino, Kettle chips. - Sandwiches Near Me - Torrance, California

Tucked back in the corner or an L-shaped strip mall, that is the backdrop to a 7-Eleven sitting front and center, is a great little deli. I love walking into this place. It's so neat and clean. A cozy spot to get a great sandwich and bonus if you happen to be greeted and have your sub, or whatever menu items you selected, created by the namesake Hugo himself. But really, everyone behind the counter is top-notch. For me, it's a turkey sandwich or meatball sub and they are always crafted with attention and care. You can just tell when something is done right and it's not just going through the motions. Because of the way this strip mall is laid out, you kind of have to be looking for it and wouldn't naturally spot it from the street. It's worth the stop. Parking is easy. read more

I love weekends that include Hugo's! These are so tasty and make any day a happy day! Today, Infinity and Thai chicken wraps... ready to go from our walk with the dogs in the neighborhood. Always the best service. read more

One of those local lunch go-to deli that u feel at home, clean, and taste great. The subs here are fresh and taste home made. The buns are soft and not dry like what u get at others. Most of all the owner is the friendliest guy and so are the staffs. When i cant decide what to eat I often find myself driving towards here lol read more

Any sandwich I've had been very good!! It's been awhile since I've been here. I've never been disappointed.

Supporting local businesses during this Corona crisis. Takeout: my Turkey Havarti Panini sandwich was delicious. I did have to reheat it when it got home. I tried a bite of the Roast Beef sandwich and it too was delicious. I preferred the mustaedy potato side salad over the macaroni salad. I would come back. read more

Maybe I ordered the wrong thing. I always thought the point of a panini is to get a warm, kinda melty sandwich. Didn't turn out that way. read more

Small, old-school mom and pop sandwich shop, located in a strip mall. I really liked the turkey havarti sandwich I had, and my husband liked his hot pastrami sandwich. The sandwiches aren't the ginormous sandwiches you see from chain places, but it was very flavorful and tasty. The bread was good, but it did fall apart rather quickly from all the sauce/dressing, and it was a bit hard to eat. I feel like a little thicker bread to hold everything together would be better, especially with the pastrami sandwich. The sandwiches come with a little side of either potato salad or macaroni salad. I preferred the macaroni salad. The service was friendly and I liked that it felt like the shop has been around for a long time. I'd come back to try other sandwiches for sure. read more

Great little sandwich spot the South Bay! I love supporting small/local businesses. Everything was fresh and plenty of options to choose from. I like how they actually cook some of the meats in house (tri-tip & meatballs). I ordered a turkey wrap and made some modifications and it came out perfectly, I even had them toast it too. I believe all sandwiches/wraps come with a complimentary side cup of macaroni salad or potato salad. It can be easily be missed as it's tucked away in the middle of the plaza. There is plenty of parking in front. Hugo is also a big LA fan with lots of sports memorabilia all throughout his shop! read more

One of the best sandwiches in south bay and the owner is very friendly. Can't miss it if you love a good sandwich!

So glad I found this place on Yelp. My boys wanted a sandwich. They didn't have much to select from, but their selection was good! My kids wanted beef or chicken. I opted for a ham sandwich for them and it was a hit! Thank you so much for the friendly service. I enjoyed the complementary macaroni salad! The place is very cute! I hope we get to return here one day! Kind of far from the freeway. read more

I was hungry for a sandwich so I searched on Yelp until I found this place. Hugo's is owned by, you guessed it! Hugo! He is a nice man with great customer service and a fair looking deli. I walked in and he greeted and served me right away. He asked me what I wanted while also describing customer favorites. I settled on the infinity wrap and got it with no jalapeños. I was taken aback by its size! It had to easily be the size of a burrito and that made me happy because I was really hungry. I got the wrap to go with a side of macaroni salad and a bag of chips. I rode all the way home and on the whole ride, thought about how yummy it would taste. I get home, crack it open, take the first bite and have to say that I was underwhelmed with the flavor of it. It could have been that the mixture of chipotle and rosemary didn't get along well together in my mouth. I was looking for that party in my mouth and I didn't get it. The next day, I had the other half of the wrap and it was better. Perhaps the flavors just had to marry? (: I'd like to give Hugo's another try, maybe next time I'm in the area. read more

I ordered the pastrami sandwich at Hugo's deli and I was very pleased with it. I only added spicy mustard and pickles and I'm telling you very good sandwich for this area. Meat was tender and cooked well. read more

This is a nice hole in the wall deli shop find. I ordered the Turkey Foccacia Panini through Yelp and picked up shortly after. My favorite thing about a sandwich is the aioli sauce and this place has sun dried tomato aioli sauce. That made it for me! It was excellent with the melted mozzarella cheese and basil pesto on the rosemary foccacia. It's also a pretty large sandwich and I probably ate more than I should have. This was my first sandwich here and I think it really lives up to standards. If you're looking for a good panini, Hugo's Deli is an excellent option in the South Bay. read more

Hugo's Deli - Sandwiches Near Me - Torrance, California

I stumbled across Hugo's Deli because I've been swimming at the Torrance Pool across the street--and boy, am I glad I did. I've now visited twice and had a great experience both times. The first time was a few weeks ago, when I marched in after 2 p.m., not knowing that they'd already closed. One staffer informed me I was too late, but the other offered to stay and make me a sandwich. He even heated up the grill for me after it had been turned off for the day. I apologized up and down but he made me feel incredibly welcome. The tri-tip sandwich was my choice during that visit, and it was fantastic. The meat was tender, the toppings well-balanced, and the French roll perfectly toasty. I was convinced to choose the potato salad as my included side, and I LOVED how mustardy and tangy it was. Of course I insisted I get it alongside my second sandwich. Today I ordered the "new" Italian sub which is a cold sub that comes with mortadella, cheese, and the usual toppings plus Italian dressing and pepperoncini. I was smart enough to get there before closing--and was happy to see that the sandwich traveled well so I could enjoy it later. I also like the selection of bagged kettle chips at the front counter (horseradish cheddar and dill pickle have both delighted) and of course bottles of Diet Coke. I suspect I'll return every time I'm at the Torrance Pool and will work my way around their menu. Everything looks delicious. read more
