The deluxe tuna was decent but they forgot to add tomato or maybe it doesn't come with. Very little avocado and the taste was lacking seasoning (salt/pepper). Not sure why they are calling it deluxe besides the avo. I was not wowed or anything but it was a decent sandwich, average size. I wouldn't go out of my way for this sandwich spot but solid for-sure. 3/5... read more

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. read more

Great employees, very welcoming and assisted with our selections. I chose the special and it was amazing! Meat cheese and salad on a bun. Very delicious! A cute place to sit but we took ours to go. read more

Under new management as of like a month ago and Flora is amazing. Stellar sandwich and the bread is SO GOOD. Got the turkey salami with the works and can't wait to go back again. Also have a very cute dining area to sit and eat. Wish they had a homemade cookies to buy is my only add. read more

The Chicken Bacon Jalapeño is my go-to! I stopped in the other day to satisfy a craving, and it did not disappoint I'm so glad they brought the Dutch Crunch bread back -- it makes the sandwich even better. I really appreciate that this is family-owned, and with the new owner, I love seeing the culture represented through such tasty food. Definitely a spot I'll keep coming back to! read more

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 read more

LJ's Deli - That's $14 of turkey, bacon and avocado?! Very disappointing - Delis Near Me - San Rafael, California

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. read more

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! read more

An awfully expensive $16 roll! I ordered a sandwich with meat and cheese. The sandwich contained a sliver of cheese and barely any meat. All hidden under large slices of lettuce!! The roll was delicious but quite overpriced for the amount of $16!! If you want a REAL SANDWICH that actually contains meat and/or cheese, please go ELSEWHERE! Save yourself the heartache and wallet ache of this EMPTY SANDWICH! Very sad. Poor quality sandwich shop. read more

Terrible atmosphere and food. Dingy, depressing. If I wanted mediocre sandwiches I'd go to Subway. read more

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. read more

One of the best Chicken Salad Sandwiches I've ever had, with apple, red onion and pepperoncinis. Ordered online and it was ready much faster than the estimated time. There's a nice interior dinning room and a few small tables outside as well. Overall, first time there was excellent and I'll be back! read more

The flavor of the pastrami bomb was amazing, However, when they add an option for "double meat" you should actually get double meat instead of looking exactly like the picture. But overall it was a delicious sandwich just needs to be a little more generous with portions especially when you ask for double of something. read more

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. read more

First of all, great sandwiches. We had the Cubano and the chicken salad. Both were excellent. The place is almost a dump, dirty tables, no attention to anything regarding ambiance. A skeleton falling out of a chair at a single table. It's a seating area made out of a formerly outdoor patio. This place would rock with some clean up! I'll go back for a take out. read more

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

I've stopped in here twice for lunch and each time the food is fresh and delicious and the staff are exceptionally nice people.

I've went to LJ's the last 3 times the last two weeks because I wanted to give them a shot. So far so good. Their Everything Breakfast sandwich was delicious. I've also tried the Halvsie was pretty good. I then tried the Pastrami Bomb and that was alright. I did it with no jalapeños because I don't do spicy. Maybe it would've been better with it. Though I am unsure if I could order what's on their website at the store because the inside menu was missing some sandwiches compared to the online menu. The service was great too as I got my sandwich pretty quick. My brother liked the "outdoor" feel in the dining area. Overall, pretty good sandwiches. read more

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! read more

LJ's Deli - the BLAST! Bacon, lettuce, avocado, Swiss, tomato on soft sliced sourdough! - Delis Near Me - San Rafael, California

Super cute indoor patio. So many tasty sounding options on the menu. I went with the turkey bacon cran. One of my favorite sandwiches of all time and this was the best! Turkey was juicy, perfect amount of condiments. I'm so full now! The guy at the counter was very friendly and welcoming. I'm definitely gonna make this a go to when working in San Rafael. They've won multiple awards for best in Marin and it's easy to see why! read more

4.5/5 just had it for the first time and it's delicious!! Love a hole in the wall deli like this! I got the sub hut special. It's messy in all the right ways with a bit of a spicy kick. Fresh delicious ingredients. Truly a rock solid sandwich I'll be getting much more often. If I was to nitpick, I'd say the bread could be a touch better but like I said, that is truly nitpicking. Thats just what would take it to a true 5/5 for me. Well done. I'll be back for sure read more

Great sandwiches. Order frequently from them for work as they come in a box with chips and cookies. Perfect for work lunches and super fresh and Yum! Kaity there is the best! read more

Wonderful great tastes great people. Best sandwiches EVER !!! So BIG with plenty of stuff inside.

Great little sandwich gem located off the beaten business park path but worth the trip. Mega sandwich selection board to choose from the namesake Subhut to the Doctor and at least 20 more, besides design your own. The reuben like most of the sandos was a nice ratio of thin sliced corned beef swiss and sourcrout for $10.99 or pastrami for $3 more, meat inflation I guess, lol. Friendly and gracious staff turning out decent quality food for the lunch time crowd who are ready to embark to sflavor town! town! Mangia read more

Love LJ's! It's such a quaint local deli that has super friendly staff, a decent menu selection, and good food! Also, you can order online and save tons of time! It's a little tough to find if you don't know exactly where it is. It's in an office park off Redwood Hwy, so I typically park across the street from Westamerica Back. Every time I walk in, I am greeted with a smile. Many times they remember me from a prior order and have a good guess about what I ordered or am about to order. They have a pretty great selection for breakfast, too. There just isn't a lot in the area in terms of quick, cheap (and tasty) breakfast, but you can get a pretty amazing breakfast sandwich or croissant at LJ's. It's a pretty big sandwich, so come hungry. read more

Part of my lettuce was brown. Very small portion of chicken but tons of iceberg lettuce. Small amount of dressing and was unimpressive. Don't like to leave bad reviews but this was my least favorite Chinese salad I've ever had and I've had a bunch. read more

Good ham and cheese was had- otherwise I'm just taking up enough characters to post, so I'll keep going till it's let's me send

I work walking distance away (across the street) from LJ's Deli, so I really want to love LJ's! But for me, the sandwiches are too small for the price. Good, but too small. For example, Michael's Sourdough in Novato has similarly priced sandwiches (they're both around $9-10), but they're big enough that I eat half for lunch one day and save the 2nd half for the next day's lunch. It's a few miles' drive, but I actually go out of my way to go there instead of walking across the street to LJ's Deli when I want a sandwich for lunch. That's a bummer, right? I mean it when I say I wish LJ's did it differently! (So I'm trying to give thoughtful feedback.) My boss agrees, and he's buying us lunch today--at the "somewhere else." We'd both be at LJ's Deli if the sandwiches were bigger. At LJ's it's a lot of money for a sandwich that's just a light lunch. However, if you want just a light lunch, I do recommend it. read more

Love this place! Great food and service. They always customize my sandwich exactly how I order it. Fresh ingredients and always delicious.

This delightful business is a happy place to shop and eat. Nothing saves the day better than knowing I can order ahead and pick it up so quickly. LOVE the Turkey Bacon Cranberry! Thank you for the meals, the smiles, and actual courtesy. read more

I already made a review for LJ's but I'm adding a new one just for this warm chicken jalapeño sandwich. Damn it's good. Go get one and eat by the water. Life is good. read more

This place is not easy to find, it's hidden in the back of a building in an industrial area. Look for the sandwich board sign!!! LJs has the freshest bread and ingredients in San Rafael. It's worth the search! I highly recommend their turkey cranberry sandwich. read more

I come here quite often for lunch, I love all the vegetarian options they have and the service is fast and easy!!!! Their specialty sandwiches are the bomb! Both women at the front are very friendly and always willing to have a nice conversation with you in English or Spanish :) I wish san Rafael had more place like this one. I think i just got hungry thinking about their food ;) read more

I made my first visit to L.J.'s Deli San Rafael to cash in a free sandwich card (handed out to businesses in the neighborhood). I ordered the Subhut which the owner, Kaity (very pleasant), said they had been serving for 50 years(!). Once I tasted it, I understood why - layers of flavor and texture that you can almost experience just by looking at it. Too bad I missed out for 46 years (my whole life in Marin), but I hope to enjoy it for the next half century. LJ's is secluded within an office park (like other hidden gems in Marin), but there are signs to direct customers. I will definitely be back to try more offerings from their extensive sandwich menu with economical prices. It will be hard not to order the Subhut again...will bring my husband (he's actually the one who works nearby) and order two sandwiches to share on a lunch break date. read more
