Exterior of Melo's shop.  He's only been there for 10 months.  Hope he's here for a long while!
Amy C.

Saturday, 9-27-2025: We were craving these sandwiches after our grandson's soccer game. When we entered it was in a little disarray as there was a very bright, expansive mural in the progress of being painted. Staff were welcoming & friendly. Unfortunately, no Gabriel. We ordered our usual faves: Little Melo Sandwich & Tuna Salad Sandwich. It was served rather quickly for which we were grateful because we were starving. As before, sandwiches were scrumptious, the bread was to die for! We really enjoyed it very much! Their ice cream is so good. Great dining experience. We're fans.

Food is always 10/10 come here almost everyday lol. always come here after the gym. Good macros and always good food.

Very friendly and helpful employees, generous samples, and limited, but comfortable seating inside. The shop is cute, and relaxing. They have lots of fun ice cream flavors! I had the mint, and it was so good! My husband and kids enjoyed their ice cream too. They also have sandwiches, which we will have to come back and try!

Club

Great sandwich shop. My husband and I ordered the club and we both loved it. Next time I would ask for mustard as well. My daughter ordered the Italian sub and loved hers as well. So much better than all the chain sandwich shops and it is great supporting a smaller business. Try it out you won't be dissapointed.

I LOVE MELOS!!! So I live in San Diego but I come over here craving these sandwiches. For real the best sandwiches ever! And the ice cream is supper good and unique Turns out that each time we've come in, we've actually been helped out by the owner Melo himself! He's extremely kind and you can see the love he has for his business and each costumer. This place is fun too! It has spots to take pictures and my favorite, a chalk board where you can just draw what ever. Plus there a tv that plays bmx and other interesting sports and the music is always good. The perfect spot for a family hang out or a cute date. Don't let the prices fool you. They do have limited staff as a small business, however, the wait (and price) is WORTH IT!!!

Birria Panini on jalepeno cheese bread with provolone cheese, onions and cilantro. $13 This sandwich was excellent.

They no longer have the Birria sandwich. Still a cute place, great employees but a little overpriced for the size you get.

I had the Big Melo & my boyfriend had The Roast. Both were absolutely delicious. "This is the best sandwich I've ever had in my life!" = direct quote from my boyfriend Then we had an awesome waffle with ice cream. Melo is friendly, welcoming & genuine. Definitely check out this place in Temecula!

Spectacular food and service at this lovely little shop. It feels like you're in a small town on an island rather than in Southern California. Sandwiches made with care and quality ingredients. Ice cream is also very good. Very nice and helpful staff. Will return.

Melo was amazing at customer service and his sandwiches were delicious. I wish I could say that was the best part but I would be lying. The ice cream here is from a different planet. I've tried MANY different ice creams in America from MA to CA and this is the absolute best. Support a young man working hard to make something of himself. Doesn't hurt that you might become addicted to his food and ice cream

The Gusto
Benita J.

Our sandwiches were AMAZING! We would definitely recommend go there to try it out! We devoured our sandwiches (the Gusto and the Roast)! We would go there again in a heartbeat and tryout other sandwiches! The bread was amazing as well. Next time I will try out the cheese and jalapeño bread! We were also given ice cream samples their cheesecake and salted caramel-those too were fantastic! Service was phenomenal! The chalk board was a fun interactive thing that my son loved!

"Exhausted Parent" coffee ice cream

If you like Italian sandwiches, this is the place for you!…read more My boyfriend and I have been coming here consistently for over 8 years. And every time it is so delicious. I've even lived in Poway, San Diego and come all the way to Temecula for this sandwich. I always get the super Italian sub, the meats make it so worth it. You can really taste the care they put into every meal. They have so many authentic Italian dishes and products. I will absolutely continue to come here and support this business. They staff is very friendly and makes you feel welcome every visit. You can tell the business takes pride in their service. I know many people of the community love their service and food. It is definitely a little gem in Temecula. The restaurant feels like a family run deli that makes you crave some of the most delicious Italian dishes. I can't wait to come back and try more! Also please try their desserts, they are to die for! I love the cannolis!

We also got 2 sandwiches for dinner. The Campini special and the peppered turkey. It was my first time eating from this establishment. I had the spaghetti and was not impressed. It was super Al dente. It was not cooked enough to what the actual Al dente should be. The meatballs were so dense and very tough. The entire dish had zero flavor. The sandwiches were bland and tasteless. I'm not a hard person to please and this was definitely food we ended up throwing out. $84 dollars wasted. I don't give second chances so I won't be back.

We stopped here on the way home from Pechanga while charging our Tesla and since it was in the same plaza, we figured we'd check it out. I assumed it was more of a franchise bakery than a standalone artisan spot, so I came in with pretty low expectations. I was just planning to grab a cinnamon roll, a loaf of their Cinnamon Burst Bread and a quick sandwich for the drive home. To my surprise, their house-made sandwiches are served on freshly baked bread, made with fresh ingredients, and cost under $10 (Panera could never!!!). Their baked goods were also reasonably priced with generous portions. We picked up the Cinnamon Burst Bread, a cinnamon roll, a honey bran muffin (which completely stole the show for me; it was incredibly moist and I'd come back just for that) and an almond poppy seed scone. The service here was just as impressive. Everyone was so friendly and personable and you could tell they genuinely enjoyed being there. I also loved their "Giving Rack," where anyone in need can take free baked goods. It's such a thoughtful idea and says a lot about the kind of business they are. This is easily one of my favorite bakery finds and it'll definitely be a regular stop whenever I'm back in the area.

We arrived with 15-20 folks. The air conditioned indoors was a welcoming environment! What I like is that you order at the counter so that the issue of splitting checks is not there. When we ordered you saw a sign that said this isn't fast food your food is made to order to warn us don't expect your food right away. I was slightly worried because we had a second game in 2 and a half hours but I knew it would be okay. We ordered and sat inside. The staff was kind enough to let us move tables around. Then I'd say within 10 minutes our food orders started coming out. The orders then continued to come out at a very steady pace! We were shocked. Then we were shocked at how DELICIOUS the food was. One by one like a chorus of glee, each person commented on how much they enjoyed their food. The menu was so vast that no one had the same order in the adults and each person loved their food. There was only one hiccup. One of the parents order a canned drink but didn't notice that it was alcoholic. This was in no way the fault of the restaurant as it was obviously beer. The parent didn't complain he just opened it and left it. The waitress who was bussing our area asked him was something wrong if he didn't like it and the dad said, I didn't realize it was alcohol. The waitress walks over with the POS machine asked him is order number found the drink and refunded it to the dads card. She did this completely unprompted and strictly because she felt it was the right thing to do. THAT is how you provide excellent service! Thank you The Local Provisions for your gracious hospitality! We will be back!

The workers are usually really chill and get your order done pretty fast, even when it's busy. It can get a little crowded during lunch hours, but it usually moves quick so it's not a big deal.
