The chicken Cesar salad wrap is so good! The cashier was so helpful because she asked if we were dining in or doing take out. It's a great location and across the street is Saigon Coffee! read more

Lou's deli located on Lincoln across from Saigon coffee. Stopped in to grabbed some to go food before our boots in the park concert. We ordered the Italian and a tuna club to go, as it's all to go unless you're ordering from the bar next door. We took the sandwiches back to our hotel and feasted on them in the room. Both sandwiches were full of meat and full of flavor. The Italian was so juicy and wet it literally made a giant mess in your hands. However, that's said, it was an absolutely epic sandwich full of flavors and worth the price and worth the wait. The turkey club was also super tasty and full of meat and flavors. Delicious through and through. We ate half and then half the next day. It was just as good the second day as the first. You can't go wrong getting a sandwich from Lou's, that's a promise. read more

**3.5 stars** Lou's is home to the viral Kale Caesar Wrap! I am admittedly deep in my Chicken Caesar Wrap phase and just haddd to make my way down to Lou's to see what all the hype was about. I got their Kale Caesar Wrap with crispy chicken (you can opt for grilled) and a margarita (they have quite a funny sign about day drinking). I'm sorry to say that I found their Kale Caesar Wrap just alright. While it's a great size and I loved the crispy chicken, I think it could've used a smidge more dressing. I know that it's called a kale wrap, but my jaw can only take chewing only kale for so long.... and it was a big wrap... I LOVED the margarita! They give it to you in an inconspicuous kiddy sippy cup with cartoon animals on it. How utterly cute! I'm obsessed with this concept! Oh! Also! If you're a pickle fanatic, each order comes with a complimentary bag of pickle flavored popcorn. A really nice surprise! Beware, though, she's saltyyy. read more

Not sure what's with so many bad reviews. Easily should be over 4 stars. Chicken vodka parm with pesto was delicious. As a jersey boy I was excited to see a chopped cheese so had to get that as well. So good. Both meats were tender and juicy. Great bread which is underrated importance in a sandwich. Vodka sauce and special sauce on both were really tasty read more

I picked up the "Philly Style Roast Pork on a soft hoagie roll for $15.99 plus tax. The sandwich came with roasted pork and broccoli rabe with Provolone cheese, and a side of pork au jus in a small container. They also give you a small bag of freshly popped popcorn with your sandwich, which is kind of cool. The sandwich came with a good amount of the roasted pork. It had good flavor and was nicely seasoned, however, it was on the borderline of being dry; hence, the reason why they probably serve it with a side of au jus. I do recommend they place the pork on the hot griddle, squirt a little water on it, then place the provolone on the meat. and proceed to cover it with a lid to melt the cheese properly and ensure the meat stays juicy, but that is just me. Also, don't hold back on Provolone because the cheese on this particular sandwich was hardly noticeable. It was barely melted and contained a single level across the sandwich. The au jus was good, but overly salty. I had to use it sparingly or else the salt level would overwhelm the sandwich. The broccoli rabe was good but some of the pieces were over cooked and did not provide that good bite. The service was very good. Everyone was very nice. The young lady who taking order had a very positive personality. read more

Really enjoyed the food here. Line always but 200% worth it. Alcohol sales picks were top notch as well.

Definitely coming back here. Had amazing food the first experience. Me and my buddy shared 3 sandwiches. We started things with chicken Parmesan and it was phenomenal. I love pastrami so much. I got the Siberian train wreck, it was my favorite! My buddy wanted to get something on the lighter side for our 3rd sandwich. We got the chicken waldorf sandwich. It had grapes and Fiji apples ! Each order comes with pickled popcorn. Next time I come I want their slushee cocktails ! Plenty of place to sit ! read more

I've been waiting forever to try Lou's Deli and it didn't disappoint. The chicken parm was so flavorful. I loved the combo of red sauce and pesto sauce - I could've done with even more sauce on the sandwich since it was so good! Great to be able to take the food and eat it at Happy Medium too. read more

Was super excited to finally try this. Specifically for the crispy chicken. Got the wrap and there was little to no chicken in it at all. The dressing was really good but it should've just been called a Cesar salad wrap. Also ordered a chopped cheese. That was really good and the lady was really sweet but probably won't go back now but if anyone else has a spot for chicken Caesar salad wraps, lmk lol read more

Great spot to curb your sandwich craving or for a quick bite! You order at a curbside window and find a seat out at their patio seating. The girl who took our order was friendly. Our sandwiches came out fairly quickly! I love that each order comes with a complimentary side of pickle popcorn. As someone who loves anything pickle flavored AND popcorn, this was a perfect snack. A friend had found this place on tik tok particularly raving about their Chicken Caesar wrap! To my surprise, they didn't have it on the menu so I opted to get the waldorf chicken wrap. However, when my friend ordered after me their chicken ceasar wrap is actually on their "secret menu" - so it is something you can order. I can't speak on their ceasar wrap, but I thoroughly enjoyed the waldorf chicken wrap! It was both sweet and savory - I'd get it again! For the pickle popcorn alone, I'd give my experience a 5/5. I've never been to a sandwich place that gives a complimentary snack with every order... let alone pickle popcorn??? That's a 5/5 in my books. read more

Sooo I'll drive for a good sandwich and this place is not so close to me but I'll give you the pros and cons. Service is hit or miss. I don't expect much because it's not like a sit down place but I asked the girl working nicely if our sandwiches are ready since we had to make an appointment and it had been quite a wait. The answer was they're working on it but I can refund you if you can't wait, but not in a nice I get it kind of way but more an annoyed snarky kind of way. UM if im spending $50 on 2 sandwiches and some tater tots for lunch to go then you can do better than that, thanks. Now for the real meat and potatoes, the famed chicken ceaser wrap is tasty but they charge you more for a wrap versus a roll which doesn't make sense. The sauce is delicious but can be lacking sometimes so like so many other reviews say it's not consistent, and the grilled chicken is moister and delish but is used sparingly in the wrap. The crispy chicken is lacking in flavor and drier so I'd pick grilled. The new pastrami roast beef sandwich with the American cheese and onions is ridiculously good though. I was blown away with the flavor on that one. The pickle popcorn is a cute touch but to be completely forward it's dry and salty. I'd prefer a bag of chips or a good pickle alongside the sandwiches instead. read more

Saw this spot on one of the food review shorts I watch on YouTube. Sandwiches were way bigger for his video lol. Decent food but price point is a lil high for the quality. They have some outdoor seating at the business connected. If your going make sure your not pressed for time. Wait time for the two sandwiches was around 40 mins. read more

Order from the window, very sweet and attentive staff! They had loads of options to choose from - i opted for the Kale Chicken Ceasar Wrap. AMAZING CHOICE - full of flavor, crispy chicken and perfect amount of dressing. Also got a side of tater tots and received a box full of tots, crispy, well seasoned. Definitely found a reason to drive an hour to San Diego! read more

I ordered the Chicken Caesar Wrap that everyone has raved about and it was so disappointing. The entire wrap was kale and a few pieces of overcooked chicken. I ate half and threw the rest away. There was absolutely no flavor. Actually disgusting. read more

Great little spot to stumble upon! I was in need of a quick food refuel and Lou's Deli was just the answer. Their sandwich menu had so many tempting options, but I went with the Waldorf wrap--and wow, it absolutely hit the spot. Fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. The staff couldn't have been friendlier, and I really appreciated how convenient the setup was with the order counter right off the sidewalk. Super easy to grab something tasty without any hassle. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area--I'll be back to try more of their sandwiches! read more

Stopped by Lou's on a Sunday for lunch and ordered in Happy Medium as opposed to at the window. The staff were immediately very friendly and offered suggestions on the menu. My friend and I split the chicken parm and the chicken caesar wrap and both were SO good. The parm had a pesto on it that added a nice lemony flavor that was unexpected but very welcome. The caesar wrap was also 10/10 and had the perfect ratio of dressing to filling. My friend ordered the pickle beer as well which was delicious and paired super well with the bar food menu. We left so full, but so satisfied, these were some of the best sandwiches/wraps we've had in SD in a while. I definitely want to come back to Happy Medium during happy hour to try some more of the Lou's menu items. I also noticed they have margarita pitchers which I feel like is hard to find these days! Bonus points for the Christmas decor, I love when a bar gets festive for the holidays! read more

5 stars for the food! I haven't actually been inside, but my girlfriend picked up a kale Caesar wrap w/ chicken cutlet and a chicken parm sandwich. Both were SO good. One of the better sandwich shops I've had in NP. I will be greatly looking forward to trying other items on the menu and swinging by the actual store myself sometime! Highly recommend for a very high quality wrap or sandwich based on my first experience. read more

Pretty disappointed in this place. Their wraps look pretty good, but it turned out less than impressive. We ordered the Caesars chicken salad, wrap, chicken, after taking the first bite I knew it was a wrap for me in this business. It only tasted like kale wrapped in a tortilla with a teaspoon of Caesar salad dressing. I nearly choked at how dry it was, the experience marred my throat. On top of that it was $20. It was actually $22. 1/10 read more

Had heard such good things about the kale Caesar salad wrap with crispy chicken so I knew I needed to get it as an avid Caesar wrap lover! This spot is right next to happy medium and besides sandwiches and salads they also offer a few fun cocktails including slushies Definitely on the pricey end at $20 for an average size wrap but it does come with a side of pickle popcorn which was super tasty Was estimated 20 minutes for the order to be ready but after checking in at 10 minute mark it was ready so that was nice, overall it wasn't my favorite chicken wrap as it lacked some flavor but I do love that kale was used the chicken cutlet was perfectly crispy Would not get the wrap again but would try their other sandwiches read more

Found this place through Instagram and it didn't disappoint. Ordered the Louie's Italian Sub and it came with some pickle popcorn on the side (I believe all the sandwiches do). I also subbed the Italian dressing for some caesar dressing instead and it was really good. The sandwich was a good size and very filling. Wasn't sure how I felt about the pickle popcorn at first but I was very surprised! It was very citrus-y and actually really good! It almost tasted like you added some lemon to your popcorn. If you're a pickle lover, I'm sure you will enjoy it! I was there with a friend and the sandwiches were both ready in about 10 minutes I'd say. At first we weren't sure where to sit since it seemed like there wasn't seating anywhere but we were told that we could sit anywhere inside the place next door which was a cocktail bar called Happy Medium. We sat in the patio area and it was just fine. Overall good experience and definitely recommend if you're wanting a good sandwich, it definitely hit the spot. read more

Grabbed a tuna melt today at Lou's deli. It was perfect! The tuna salad was delicious and the rye bread was toasted with just the right amount of butter.

Lou's deli is a Walk up ordering station establishment connected to a bar ( it was closed) but you can order and sit to eat it. The staff was friendly and recommended other must visit establishments around the area. Ordered the Italian sub and it was very refreshing in the San Diego heat! The crisp lettuce and dressing was delish, the sub its huge! If you are hungry it's a good size but it's also good to share with a friend. They have a fresh popcorn for a side too. Sat next door at the bar ( closed) to eat the sandwich it was nice to have a seat and enjoy it with the nice breeze flowing by. read more

Ehhh. The girl at the counter was super nice, went on a Monday morning and it wasn't busy at all. Saw great reviews for the chicken Cesar wrap so I stopped by after getting a coffee but I just feel like for the amount of chicken, how dry it was (and whatever this stem was I thought I bit on a toothpick) .. not worth $20. Def a big wrap so just eating half was filling but not sure if I'd come back read more

Lou's Deli... that seems to be a fairly popular business name as I know of other locations around the country, none of which are related. The one here in SD is a sandwich shop window next door to the recently opened Happy Medium. They share the same kitchen and ownership on a busy corner of 30th St in North Park. The current operating hours are limited to weekdays between 11 am and 3 pm. Ten regular sandwiches and two specials were at the core of the menu. Three salads and three sides were the other food offerings. The drinks featured beer, wine, cocktails, slushees, and some non-alcoholic beverages. I pulled up within their last half hour of business and ordered one of the two specials, a Pork Belly Sando. Crispy pork belly slices were served with pickled red onion and chimichurri on ciabatti bread. The sandwich was cut in half and wrapped in wax paper. A bag of Lou's Pickle Popcorn was provided as a complimentary snack. It wasn't the thickest sandwich by any means, but the fatty pork belly was so decadent. The red onion helped cut through the richness of the meat. I took my order to go, however you can sit on the covered sidewalk patio of Happy Medium to enjoy your food as they are not busy during the time in which Lou's Deli is in business. read more

I have been on the hunt for a chicken Caesar wrap. My requirements: fried chicken cutlet and a good dressing. Lou's used kale which helped make the wrap more filling. They did forget one of my drinks but I can forgive them because the dressing for the wrap was amazing. Super thick and I'd be surprised if it wasn't home made. Definitely going to give it another try. read more

They work with happy medium next door and I had a tuna on rye that was very decent. Oh my God something I liked but it could have been a bit moisture it crumbled a bit. Not much of a drinker but when I went in to have a medium I had a slushie and they gave me the tuna sandwich from Lou's. Since I thought it was decent I went back two times and there was never anyone around at the counter even though the window was open so I guess they're not interested in business I'm not sure if I should keep trying to pursue this. It's basically next to happy medium with a big roll up blind type thing and there's a menu but there's never anyone there. Booo read more

Based off the pictures, I can say there is no consistency. Got the kale Caesar wrap with grilled chicken - basically all kale, a few pieces of chicken in a STALE wrap.

Short version: for me Lou's had a rough start, but their new chef saved the day. When Lou's first open, I was so excited to have a new sandwich shop down the street. The Waldorf chicken wrap, Italian sub, and turkey club in a word... sad :( I gave them another shot since they got a new chef. Now I find myself here a couple times a week! It feels like there's a sandwich enjoyer behind the scenes because these sandwiches are definitely enjoyable. I definitely recommend this place now! read more

I think that this little sandwich shop is really underrated. Jessa was the person who helped me at the counter and she had amazing customer service, helped make recommendations, and was prompt and professional. I ordered the hot pastrami and a kale Caesar wrap (not technically on the menu). They have a decently sized menu with good variety. they had plenty of seating in the area by the bar they are attached to. The pastrami was great, thinly sliced and flavorful with the coleslaw that didn't take too much away from the sandwich, and the portion was huge. The Caesar wrap was not bland. The dressing was evenly distributed and the kale provide a nice fresh crunch while the chicken was cooked nicely and not too dry, the was also huge. Pricing is a bit expensive but worth it in my opinion. The added commentary pickle popcorn is a great touch, nice and salty and a great side. read more

Had the kale caesar wrap and the chicken vodka parm sandwich and honestly both were very disappointing. Kale Caesar hardly had ANy chicken ( mostly kale) and was extremely dry on the dressing. Vodka parm was a miss as well, bread was stale and mushy by the time I ate it. Unfortunately would not come back for what I paid for these 2 sandwiches. The only thing that was good was the free popcorn read more

While the wrap was good, I can't help but be annoyed at what I experienced today. I placed an order on the website directly at 2:44 and rushed over to make it before closing. I got there at 2:56 the girl was friendly and handed me my sandwich. They were closing up. I asked if the wrap is "saucy" she said it is I said you know better to be safe and just get an extra side of dressing I live all the way in east county I can't come back if I need sauce lol So she says no problem reaches to give me the sauce and then says oh I have to charge you. Lol the wrap is $20 but ok... so the register says .75 I tap my card thank her and leave. As I'm looking at my charges today the charge was $1.75 all of a sudden... um not sure what happened It's really not about the $1 extra it's about the fact that she said 75cents but I was charged more. The wrap was decent don't get me wrong.. but $22 basically for a Cesar salad wrap is kind of crazy. Don't think I'll be back. read more

I recently tried this place out two weeks ago. I've been hooked ever since. Customer service is always pleasant. I asked for recommendations and I had the Turkey club and Waldorf wrap. I also tried the egg sandwich. Turkey club sandwich 10/10 They don't skimp out in meat or bacon.. it's so delicious! Waldorf 8/10 Light and creamy with perfect crunch and softness. My only complaint is to add more chicken pieces please. Every time I get this wrap, I feel like the chicken portion decreases. Egg sandwich 7/10 Note: I do feel this place is pricey for sandwiches...however with inflation and the economy where can you get a quality tasty sandwich for a decent price?! read more
