Absolutely love this deli, I won't go anywhere else! I order the Healthy California because I love veggies but, I add a little turkey for protein and highly recommend the chipotle sauce. The staff is super friendly and there are a ton of regulars! Still waiting to have a sandwich named after me :) I encourage supporting small family owned businesses such as this one! Yelp don't filter out my review, kthanks! read more

Maya's Deli - Healthy Californian Sandwich add turkey and chipotle sauce - Delis Near Me - El Cajon, California

Simple and delicious! I've been here a few times and they have consistently made me happy. Affordable and they offer half sandwiches which I appreciate because sometimes I'm only lowkey hungry and can't finish a full sandwich. I usually get the turkey avocado toasted and it always hits the spot. My mom likes their BLTs and my brother likes their meatball subs. I'll be back again! read more

This deli has great prices for quality food! The staff is extremely kind and accommodating. The orders come up fast and are very tasty. I come here at least once a week and the quality is consistent. read more

Maya's Deli - Godfather - substitute ham, side of broccoli cheddar soup - Delis Near Me - El Cajon, California

So I am not sure why this burrito is $6.00 because there are literally green eggs in this burrito. I've already addressed this issue with Uber eats. I'm just utterly disgusted right now. This burrito isn't even big in size . there's a photo with half of a burrito with two small bites from it. I'm disappointed. read more

Well, today was my first visit here. Ordered a chicken salad sandwich on squaw bread. To my surprise, it came with a soda. Awesome! Ordered it to go. When I got home, unwrapped it and yummmmm. This sandwich comes stacked high and full of the flavors you want in a delicious chicken salad sandwich. The girl at the register asked me if I'd like a pickle, which I accepted. Even that was crisp and cold. I will def will be back. Maybe to order the same thing, which I'll probably add bacon to it. Or maybe I'll try something new. Good job Maya's deli. I've lived near by for a while now and I'm glad I finally made the stop in. See you again soon read more

Maya's Deli - Chicken salad sandwich #delicious - Delis Near Me - El Cajon, California

This place is epic, my go to lunch spot!! Family owner they're always super friendly but what really brings me back is the freshness of their food they clearly take pride :) I recommend their veggie sandwich on squaw bread hits the spot every time read more

Another Awesome hidden gem, in the Cajon Zone, that I found by accident. Great service (one of the owners- served me and she's a total sweetheart) the sandwich was a great sandwich... I ate an Italiano Sub, and the atmosphere was great. I will be back soon, to try the New Yorker- it appears to be one of their most popular sandwiches. The Pesto sandwich also looks very inviting. I found this sandwich shop by accident- Napa auto parts sent me over here to their new paint store- 'Performance Paint and Supply' they used Maya's Deli as a landmark to find their store. I was starving, so it worked out perfectly. read more

Maya's Deli is always so delicious! I'm so happy they are still open & I was able to order delivery today! That was a win-win! Amazing food and I was able to support a small business, what more could I possibly want? I'm a happy customer! read more

Love this deli. Great food wonderful employees . It's what every eatery should be. You should check it out

This place is a hidden gem. Order a cesar salad, came with lots of chicken and croutons, drink and some chips. The order was filled quickly, the service was polite and helpful. Very pleasant experience. Support places like this. We need them. Thank you for your hospitality Maya Team. read more

I was at El Cajon Ford setting up their copiers and John B. was having the most amazing looking pastrami sandwich. He was kind enough to share that Maya's Deli had been the place he had procured the amazing looking lunch he was having. I hadn't had lunch yet and since Maya's is not too far from El Cajon Ford I drove in over and decided to try The Godfather sandwich as it looked amazing and John had recommended it. The Godfather has a symphony of flavors whose chorus of deliciousness blows across your taste buds and into your mind with each bite. So from now on when El Cajon Ford needs me to come visit I will be heading over to Maya's Deli after! Come try this place! Its amazing! read more

First time here and I ordered the gobbler sandwich and it was AMAZING!!!! I will definitely be going back! The proportion of meat, sauce and bacon was perfect! The cranberry sauce makes the sandwich. If you haven't tried it yet, go try it! read more

Tasteful, size and price are the perfect combination, few places are better than this shop.

Found this place via Yelp. Good food. Fast service. If I had been here alone I would have given this place 4 stars. But...My husband, who is generally much kinder than I am when we discuss reviews, had the pastrami sandwich, which he said was average at best. We decided it was the minimal amount of pastrami that made it just average. I had the club, which I found to be very tasty. For $2 you can add a drink and chips. Didn't tell us we had to get our own chips so halfway through the meal I had to ask. The decor is bright and kitchy. Bathroom is outside you need to get a key. It was clean. Big TV but couldn't hear it and there were only four of us in the restaurant at 4 pm so I think it's just for background noise. read more

This deli used to be called San Diego Sandwich company way back in the day, I use to come here a lot when I worked in the area. I no longer work in this area so I don't get to come here as much, but upon returning, I noticed they changed the name to Maya's Deli. This place is a awesome little hole in the wall sandwich place located across from Parkway Plaza. This is a great little spot for a quick sandwich around lunch time. The prices are great here, you can get a sandwich and drink for around six bucks. The quality of meats, cheeses and breads here are also top notch. You can tell this is a family owned business, the same guy is always at this place and he's really good about getting your order right. If you're in the area and looking for a good sandwich for lunch, this is the spot. It's way better than the overrated Antonelli's Deli. read more

Fantastic deli! I found this place because my husband loves sandwiches and I wanted to find a privately owned shop instead of our regular visits to Panera or Jersey Mike's. This place exceeded my expectations. I ordered ahead on Yelp and got The Godfather and an Italian sub. They had my order fresh and ready for pick up in about 10 or 15 min, and the woman at the counter was so nice. I often run into issues where restaurants don't read my special instructions, but this place read that I asked for extra side of pepperoncinis and didn't miss that! I liked their simple decor and variety of menu choices. I will definitely be back again! Pictures to come after my next visit :) read more

Fastest delivery EVER. Sauciest most delicious thing I've ever had. It's huge too!! Couldn't finish it and man I love to eat . I got the hot chicken sandwich and added onions and sprouts. On sour dough, panini style. read more

I work in the same center as Maya's Deli and I come here on many lunch breaks. Consistently I have received tasty sandwiches and cookies. My coworker likes the homemade soups, I plan to get next rainy day. It is a clean and well kept place and everyone is helpful and friendly. Oh my Avogobble on sourdough was amazing!! read more

This place is amazing! It's always clean, to start - literally EVERY time I go in there, one of the girls are cleaning. The girls are incredibly nice every time since I've just recently started going in. The food: The sandwiches are delicious, with incredibly soft bread. (The bread makes or breaks the sandwich to me). The meats are quality, and not skimped on. I will say that if you get a roll, I'd potentially double the meat. It's the perfect amount with sliced bread, though. The smoothies are delicious - not too sweet. I'll just keep going back; and that says enough,. read more

We love their sandwiches and açaí bowls. The staff Is always really sweet and great. They are quick but not sloppy or stingy so it's perfect to swing by for lunch. read more

Always the same really nice gal behind the counter. She's quick and efficient and I'll continue to come in and support this fabulous small business. I can see some fresh chalk board paint in here and re doing the look for some fun. But I love this place and have recommended it to a number of people. I've seen several people frequent this place as well as fire and LE. very friendly to them too. I recommend! read more

A whole in the wall sandwich place that serves good sandwiches. Staff is friendly. They have the typical selection of sandwiches you would find in most local sandwich shops. Drinks are self serve. They have a TV but it is not to loud. They have plenty of tables. Staff is very friendly. Plenty of parking but it can be a little tight the closer you park to the building. The have a decent beer selection for a sandwich location. Artwork is pretty cool. read more

The managers name is Linda. So I called and said my sandwich is wrong and I only had a 30 minute lunch they offered to give me 15% off my next time I come in. That was them taking care of the problem. Awful service. read more

The sandwiches here are so good. I haven't had one I don't like. The pastrami on rye with bacon, no tomato and provolone has become my #1 order. The deli meat is great quality and they pile your sandwiches high. I used to be a big antonellis fan, but the service and quality is going downhill there. The girls running this place are so sweet. By the way, the peanut butter cookies they have are addicting. If you see some, grab one asap cause they sell out quick. They're homemade and hit the spot every time. read more

Maya's Deli - Delis Near Me - El Cajon, California

After a long drive my friend and I stopped in at MAYA's DELI in El Cajon. At first look, it looks like a strip mall eatery, but i'm 100% glad we stopped in. We had a big order: Tuna Sandwich, Antipasto Salad, Hot Reuben Sandwich, Gobble-berry Sandwich, and brought home my teenage boys the Gut Buster's. My family's "go to" place has always been IKES and JERSEY MIKES but MAYAS DELI is definitely the in-line competition. Maya's sandwiches were all EXCELLENT and the Antipasto Salad meat was filled with fresh crispy vegetables. You can't go wrong with anything you order here! To top it off, the two ladies running the show there are cheery and welcoming and took the time to engage in conversation with each customer who came in. Don't pass this place by! read more

The food is always great. Always fresh and very crisp. We'll be back soon. Also good value for what you get.

Enjoy fantastic food while supporting local business. Avogobble on a white roll panini style is my favorite, but I've taken many friends and family here and nobody has been disappointed. I highly recommend! read more

Hidden gem. Always though it was a ghetto shop until actually stepping in a tasting the awesome sandwiches.

I had the chicken supreme sandwich on a roll. It was exactly what my soul was craving for lunch. I am a good eater and this sandwich was pretty generous and it filled me up. I called in the order, the girl I've true phone was attentive, and friendly. Picked it up 10 mins later and it was warm and ready for me. Great food, great service, fair prices. read more

Today was my first time trying this place, and I already like it. Very friendly staff. Usually sandwich place like that I do not expect friendly service but she is actually welcoming and friendly. I ordered an Avogobble on squaw (Added onions) to go. It was very good. The bread tasted fresh and same as the meat and veggie inside. I will have it without mustard next time. The only thing is it feels a little warm in there. Quick service, good food, reasonable price and friendly staff. I will definitely come back again. read more

Great Turkey Club! Haven't had a bad sandwich yet from this establishment. Great casual or takeout lunch spot if you're in the area.

I ordered the Maya Delight breakfast sandwich for delivery. The bread was not toasted and there was no tomato. Bummed because the sandwich was good overall, it just wasn't what was described and was not what I ordered. It was the first time I tried this place and unfortunately my first impression was a bit disappointed. read more

Mayas Deli was amazing! I highly recommend the gobble berry sandwich. It was delicious. The woman at the counter gave us a cup of potato soup on the house just to try it out. Great food and great customer service! read more

Wow! The sandwich options are not only amazing, but the food here is incredible. What really set this place off and prompted the yelp review was the customer service. Maria was 100% on point with every single person that walked in the store. I look forward to seeing her again and trying to recruit her to come work at my company! We could use more Maria's. read more
