    Cali Chicken Club
    Amy B.

    Boy am I glad my buddy took me here. The staff are so incredibly friendly and helpful, you really feel welcomed. Let's talk about the food, oh my gosh just yum! I had the Cali Chickej Club, it was so flavorful and huge. I enjoyed every single bite. My buddy had the French Dip and he really liked it. He said he has had the chopped cheese before as well and it was amazing. This place is out of the way in an office building, but you just go!

    Excellent service and delicious food and coffee! We got the gyro burger and pastrami sandwich (i added sauerkraut), both so good. Definitely will be back :)

    French Onion Soup. ‍ Didn't stand a chance  thanks Dominic!

    The food and customer service here is AMAZING!! Got the Cali chicken club combo and was given a complimentary French onion soup! Everything was so good! Dominic went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable, super friendly, I will definitely be back! Love this place.

    been here several times, the workers are very nice and the food is delicious. it's always fresh and great prices for what you get! They have a daily soup and daily special. the workers gave me a free cookie because I work for the school nearby, so nice! the inside is clean and quiet. Definitely a great spot for a lunch. They have great options and variety, definitely be coming frequently

    Chili Cheese hotdog with fries. (Daily Special) The special only comes with one but the owner threw in an extra one for me :o)

    My office is located in the same building as the cafe and we have been ordering from here since it opened. This is a great family owned business where they treat you like part of the family and always make you feel welcomed. Their food is amazing and they always offer new deals and daily specials. The owner is fantastic and his hardworking family is also very welcoming. We order from here at least once a week and we are never disappointed. I typically order the club house sandwich as this is stacked high with plenty of meats and vegetables. I always add their chipotle sauce for extra flavor! Their prices are very reasonable and you really get what you pay for. I recommend this deli to everyone!!!

    Tuna melt

    Ordered for delivery from Jordan's Cafe while house sitting over here in La Mesa (I live in Linda Vista so I was testing the waters on Postmates) and I was very pleasantly surprised with my meal! I ordered a tuna melt on sourdough with cheddar cheese, the portion of tuna was healthy and the bread was toasted perfectly. To top it off they gave me two free cookies wishing me a Happy Friday, fives stars would recommend.

    HUGE Large tuna sandwich, with white onions added. So good.
    Jonathan M.

    Stellar service and stellar sandwich! Today I had the large tuna on sourdough with white onions. Last week I had the breakfast burrito, the week before the chipotle chicken sandwich (SO good as well) and honestly, anything I get from here I expect to be good at this point. The pictures don't do this justice. The team is always so happy and excited to be there, they all have great suggestions when you can't think about what to eat, and the specials and wide varieties of foods will keep you busy for a long time. DEFINITELY worth a try! It's on the 4th floor of the 7777 Alvarado building. Free parking in the garages and lobby levels.

A few bites into my half, I noticed mold on the side of my sandwich. By that point, she had already eaten about half of hers. I called immediately. After several holds and back-and-forth, I was told they couldn't refund a single item, and that the owner said I could drive back to pick up cash. I explained I was at work and moving to Temecula in two days. I wasn't rude, I was patient through every hold. I've worked in food service. If this ever happened where I worked, we would have refunded the entire order and done whatever it took to make it simple for the customer. The owner offered to drive the cash to my house, which I declined, I didn't want a stranger at my door, and honestly, it wasn't about the money. My pregnant wife ate moldy food. Not once did anyone ask if she was okay or acknowledge that this was a health concern. I never received a refund. I just expected basic accountability, apparently that was too much to ask.

When you see the entire store front packed with City Workers enjoying their meals...IT'S A MUST TO STOP AND TRY THEIR FOOD! That speaks volume in itself! I just love "MOM AND POP" locations! I believe this shop is a mother and son ran operation and they are an amazing duo dishing out amazing subs for reasonable prices! Watch out other sandwich chains out there cause Grove Grinder IS WHERE IT'S AT!!!! They have been in business since 1972...NUFF SAID! I ordered the Ann Special with everything on it. They do not skimp on meat and the proportion of bread to meat to veggie ratio is spot on! A full size sandwich is enough to feed two people easily or one very hungry person. I did not try any of their side items or large selection of root beer drink options to choose from but, I will be back many more times to try all they offer! Thank you Grove Grinder for amazing eats and allowing me to snap all my photos of your small shop for my review! If in Lemon Grove, show some love to Grove Grinder and grab you one of their amazing affordable, delicious subs...YOUR WELCOME IN ADVANCE!

    Yes to the biscoff coffee!!…read more Can't believe I've just now tried this place. If you love Vietnamese coffee i would highly recommend. The coffee is a little on the sweeter side but also strong , it's addicting! The biscoff adds a different but equally as good flavor. Will be back to try other flavors and sandwiches! Cashiers were all nice and can even let you know what you might like. Place was clean and my drink was out as soon as I was done paying.

    I wasn't expecting anything crazy, just a solid banh mi, and that's exactly what I got. Continuing…read moredown University Ave, I stopped by Lee's Sandwiches. It's in a big plaza so parking is never really an issue. It's a chain banh mi spot, but one thing I will say is they stay open later than most local banh mi places, so if you're coming home late and craving one, this is probably where you're going. The left side is a drink cooler with various drinks and grab and go desserts. There are menus on multiple screens, ads everywhere, and it's just very busy on the eyes. Then on the right side you have the drink station and seating. If I'm being honest, I would not sit inside unless I had to. There is a shared patio outside in the plaza though and if the weather is nice, I would 100% take my food out there instead. Most of the tables inside were kind of dirty with crumbs and the trash was full, so it just made the space feel a little unkept. I waited in line and the cashier was very sweet. I ordered a strawberry tea and asked if I could adjust the sweetness, but since the sweetness comes from the syrup it would also change the flavor, so I just kept it as is. I also got the #11 special combination banh mi and asked for extra cilantro because if you know, you know. They take your order, you sit, and they call it out. I waited maybe 10 minutes, drink came out first, sandwich right after. The strawberry tea surprised me. I really thought it was going to be super sweet but it was more like a 6 out of 10 on sugar. Once the ice melted a bit it got even better. It tasted fresh, fruity, not artificial, and there were actual strawberry pieces in there. I really liked it and would get it again. Now the sandwich. It was solid. Not mind blowing, not the best I've had, but it did exactly what I wanted it to do. The bread was fresh with a nice crunch but not too hard. There was a good amount of mayo and pate, the meats were flavorful, and everything just worked. The pickled carrots and daikon could've had more crunch, they were a little soft, but the flavor was there and helped balance everything out. They do add soy sauce and you can definitely taste it. I'm not the biggest fan of that so I'd probably ask for no soy sauce next time, but that's just me. Also when I ask for extra cilantro... I mean EXTRA, because I felt like what I got was just a normal amount. Overall, really solid. Good sandwich, really good tea, and a spot I can see myself coming back to especially since they're open later than most places. It might not be the best banh mi in the area, but it gets the job done when you need it.

Of course, the meats are tougher to replicate, but this is the absolute BEST vegan bacon I have ever had. The sausage is great too. The sandwiches are good, but I think that the last time we went they had a heavy mustard hand because it's all I could taste. I would skip the Turkey-Bacon Club and get the Reuben instead. I'm looking forward to trying the BLT and the hot dogs! The cream cheese is reeeeeally good too. We tried the Jalapeno and the Bacon-Scallion. I recommend getting one of those added to your bagel sandwich.
