    Turkey, bacon, avocado
    Carly B.

    The sandwich has good flavors, the bread is good. However I was a little disappointed my whole sandwich would fall apart when I took a bite. The service was good, sandwiches were made well.

    Turkey Avocado Sandwich
    Trini V.

    Ordered the turkey avocado and it was amazing as usual. I always enjoy LJ's Deli and the staff is so friendly! Their sandwiches are huge and fairly priced for what you get. Try the chicken salad and breakfast too, you won't be disappointed. The seating area is so cute too- it's indoor patio style with fresh plants and colorful decor that makes you feel happy.

    -Sub Hut Special
    Stacie M.

    So I was born and raised in Terra Linda. I have been a customer of this unique little deli in the industrial park for over 50 years. I live in Santa Rosa for 22 years now. I have many fond memories back in the day. I wanted to share this family business with everyone! The service was easy and fast. I went there today....so good and who says you can never go home again?! I love the mural added to the wall. The tables are original...chairs instead curved bench seating. Good change tho! This was like stepping back in time. The food here is fantastic. The bread was baked this morning. It originally opened in early 1970s as Subhut and home of the Subhut Special.

    Chicken salad
    Allie P.

    Well crafted sandwiches. Surprisingly I loved the chicken salad sandwich when I took a bite of my boyfriends. My sandwich was good but I wish they had honey mustard and sprouts. I definitely would recommend checking this place out!

    That's $14 of turkey, bacon and avocado?! Very disappointing

    Had been here before on several occasions and sandwiches were great. Sounded good today so stopped in and got a turkey bacon avocado sandwich. Asked for no mustard but got it anyway. Not a big deal. But paying $14 for a sandwich that ended up being all bread and lettuce is not cool. I swear they looked at the receipt to see if I tipped before making the sandwich... and this is what I got

    burnt sandwich

    received my sandwich burnt. It was an online order during lunch. everything else seemed to be ok

    Service was not great, it's a sandwich shop. I don't expect a greeting. Just quick service - that was missing. Sandwich was almost $15 and it felt...lacking. Sandwich is not great or good. It was mostly squished bread with lots of onions.

    *Chicken Bacon Jalapeno*
    Carla M.

    I tried the Chicken Bacon Jalapeno and its by far my favorite sandwich to order. I normally get it to go and its still good when I arrive to my destination. The service is always great and fast. And driving to the deli is always easy to find and because I work by the YMCA its my go to!! The location is a cute little shop where you can also seat in and enjoy your food.

    Piece of paper in my latte!
    Tony B.

    Usually service is good when ladies are working. Today a young man was working about 10:45 am. I ordered a chocolate Latte,and when I took my last drink this paper came out. It's not from cup or sleeve!?

    -Philly Sandwich-
    Sophia O.

    Perfect ratio of meat to bread on this philly! LJ's never disappoints. Great food, awesome service, and lots of options!

    the BLAST! Bacon, lettuce, avocado, Swiss, tomato on soft sliced sourdough!
    Sophia O.

    I love that there was a lot of fresh lettuce, not just a measly leaf. Usually I would've preferred the bread toasted, but the soft bread held together the crunchy bacon & lettuce very well. It was perfect! Love the new look of the patio! Very inviting & comfortable!

    Love it love it love it!!!…read more Love the layout and decoration not to mention how friendly the staff were. Food wise, omg to die for! We got a combination of BBQ pork with papaya salad and black sticky rice and we asked if I could add one more Lao style papaya salad into it and she said 'yes!!' Also Nam Kao Tod and beef jerky were so tasty!! Would totally recommend this place!

    The food at Laos Kitchen is amazing! Everything was light and fresh and the three of us devoured…read moreall of it! We ordered the Pun Khao Poon platter (lettuce wraps) with pork springrolls, pad thai with chicken, and the mango salad. The portions were very generous. The mango salad was the highlight of the meal, followed by the lettuce wraps. The dressing in the mango salad had just the right combination of sweet and tangy. We loved the addition of mint for the wraps, but I personally don't care for perilla leaves. The fish sauce accompanying the wraps was delicious and was also great over the pad thai, which was a bit on the bland side without it. Service was a bit less than perfect. When one diner asked for water, only her glass was refilled when another glass was obviously in need also; minor overlook, though. The one thing that was a bit disturbing was the noise level. It was extremely loud, so it was really difficult to hear each other talk. It didn't help that the party at the next table had a woman who cackled loudly when she laughed. It was a relief to step outside after we ate. Not sure what can be done to help with this, but it did make dining there not as pleasant as it could be. Even with this, I'd definitely return if I was in the area.
