    Steak & Peppers
    Paul C.

    Morucci's is my favorite East Bay spot when I'm craving some kind of sandwich! There is always a long line if you don't order ahead, but it's totally worth it for the abundance of options and the quality of the food! The steak and peppers is my favorite! Generous amount of steak and the sautéed peppers are sweet perfection. So good! The chicken caesar sandwich is a close number 2 for me. For breakfast, the bagel sandwiches are also delicious. Thanks Morucci's for consistently serving great food!

    Not "no lettuce"

    They always get you on the take out. Heard great things about this place. Service was quick, sandwich was good. Just didn't understand the "no lettuce" part of the order.

    By far hands down my favorite sandwich spot I'm from South Bay and I regularly crave these! But once a blue moon get a chance to grab one I order the: - Turkey with Bacon on Dutch Crunch: good protein, pickled yellow peppers, tomatoes/lettuce, chewy & crunchy bread! Soo good 5/5 stars Lots of parking in the back parking lot of street parking infront of the store. Good amount of seating, chips, & drinks! Oh and also, sooo many sandwich combos

    A very popular deli with affordable prices on deli sandwiches! So many tasty sounding sandwiches, ended up trying the Tri Tip sandwich and the Pesto Chicken. Waited a good 35 minutes to order and love that they sell large bags of chips, family size! You can order online before you head over too, might save you a long wait to order. The Tri-tip sandwich is a Steak sandwich with melted cheese, horse radish, on garlic ciabatta (romaine, tomato, peppers, and onions. The pesto chicken sandwich is a Pesto, mayo, lettuce, spinach, tomato, bacon, chicken , cheese, with avocado. Both sandwiches were quite tasty and asked for Dutch Crunch on both. I'll definitely be back to try more of their sandwiches. The parking is horrible, limited street parking and a tiny parking lot. It was quite busy and everyone was hunting for a table after they ordered!

    #14 Bacon, Lettuce & Tomato w/Avocado on a ciabatta
    Larry M.

    Ordered online this time, made the process much easier, and got lucky, the one handicapped parking spot was open!! Ordered a BLTA on ciabatta roll, and a High Maintenance salad. The sandwich was a little light on bacon , and the shredded lettuce didn't work well for me. The salad was fantastic, tons of stuff (I added artichokes), I was able to make two salads out of the box.

    Dutch crunch roll with salami and pepper turkey and everything

    This place is such a hidden gem, it's in the cuts of Walnut Creek you wouldn't just stumble upon it. When I remember, which would be after work or in the late afternoon when they are closed or sold out of bread. All that to say...Go early and call ahead. I was smart to go on a Sunday afternoon, it was busy and had a good 15-20 minute wait time but it was worth the wait. The staff was super friendly and had so much patience for people who don't know what they want or had to read all they text messages to get all the orders in. Definitely worth the drive and wait definitely my new favorite. So many aren't worth the wait and overpriced. That pepper turkey is amazing!

    I hate that I always forget to take pics...anyways, this is my second time coming here for a sandwich. 1st time it was a bit busy but they did a great job getting your order out ASAP. 2nd time, I decide to order online to beat the line and I got a text when my sandwiches were ready for pick up. You head to the window, give your name and voila...you are ready to go. It's super hard to choose what sandwich to get because they all look so good!!

    #6 1/2 Prosciutto (w/ Tomato Mozzarella)
    Mia K.

    YUMMMM!! Such a good spot for a medium priced sandwich. I got the 6.5 prosciutto caprese sandwich and I could taste every flavor of the ingredients. They have outside seating with umbrellas. This is a great place to go on a summer day or to get sandwiches before going to the beach. The service was fast. It was a busy Sunday and I got my sandwich within 10/15 minutes of ordering. Would recommend!!

    Pesto chicken sandwich
    Sandra N.

    Make sure you preorder online since it's a popular sandwich spot. I love that they offer big bag of chips here as well! I got a pesto chicken sandwich and tri-tip! Both are so good. My favorite is the pesto chicken. Must try spot!

    Needed to pickup sandwiches for birthday celebration. I was unable to place our order online as their system did not offer all the selections I needed. The deli was not crowded so I was able to order quickly. It took about 20 minutes for my 4 sandwiches and salad. The ingredients were all fresh. The sandwiches were all tasty.

    #00 Oven Roasted Turkey
    Anthony W.

    Morucci's is one of my favorite sandwich spots in the area. I've ordered plenty of sandwiches from them in the past and even to this day, they still haven't let me down. I think it's always great when you just know you aren't gonna have a bad experience no matter what kind of sandwich you order from this place. I even kept real basic this time too. I ordered Oven Roasted Turkey on Wheat and even though I kept it so simple, there still was tons of flavors everywhere. Im such a sucker for a good sandwich spot. I love how the fixings are always fresh and they never mess up the ratio of spread. Their sandwiches just always have the perfect amount of spread. When I go to In and Out, I always ask for extra spread. There is never enough. Im not trying to have no boo boo dry burgers or sandwiches man. I want ALL the flava. I never have a problem with this Morucci's because their sandwiches are always constructed perfectly. If you have never have them and live in the area, nows the time. Get to it.

    Livier M.

    I really wanted to love Morucci's given all the hype but it was just ok for me. Not great unfortunately. I did a custom sandwich and I feel like all I could taste was the bread. The line was long and slow which I understood because it was packed. But I don't think it was worth waiting in line for a sandwich that was just okay.

    Molly G.

    We were expecting a line around noon on a Sunday based on the photo reviews, so we were pleasantly surprised when we visited and were able to order right away. We waited only a couple of minutes before our sandwiches were ready. I ordered the California Club on Dutch crunch, and it was delicious! The sandwich itself isn't huge, but it was still a satisfying portion and left me feeling very full afterward. I highly recommend trying the Dutch crunch. We ate our sandwiches outside and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I'll definitely be back to try more options!

    Did they get rid of taking phone orders???? I really hope not, that's the only way I order from here. Edit: I mean ordering for individual same day asap pickup? Seems like…

    They did take away phone orders but they do online ordering instead now! Moruccis.com/order

    Open on Sunday?

    In early years it wasn't, but I've been there many sundays now. Website shows open 8am- 4pm.

    Do they still accept fax orders? I haven't been in a while and haven't been able to find the fax number.

    no Fax but Yes for TEXT...

    Do you guys offer any hot chili oil or sauce for the sandwiches?

    What size are their sandwiches ? Wondering if they are comparable to little luca in south sf ..12" standard size there

    No sandwich other than little luca is that big. Quality better at moruccis imo

    I work for a school in WC. We'd like to order food from this place to have it delivered on Friday, May 7th at 10:45am. There will be about 30 people who will order. I need to know when is the deadline to submit their order and also the menu?

    I would call and let them know you have a big order and get their fax number or email. That's how we would normally order for work

    Why does Morucci's charge additional 50 cents to takeout orders?

    Extra packaging.... even though EVERYTHING is to go now

    Does it offer gluten free bread?

    Yes they have Gluten-free bread. 🙂 sandwiches are very tasty fresh

    Does their phone not work? This is the second time I've tried calling for over 30 min and goes straight to "Verizon wireless...phone call could not be completed as called party is busy". I did not call during lunch hours so I don't quite understand.

    They accept phone orders before 11am.

    Can you kindly share me what kind of bread you can select from?

    Sourdough, Dutch Crunch, Wheat, Ciabatta, Focaccia and Soft Rolls.

    Are they open Christmas Eve?

    No

    Is there new hrs? We have tried multiple time to come get sandwiches and are closed by 5! Also try to call and no one answers before 5!

    The posted hours are 7PM on the weekdays, but I work down the street and they have been locking their doors around 6:30 each night. I even try to call between 5:30-6 to place an order for pick up, and they do not pick up their phone. It's very…

Don't get me wrong, the Genova's in the big (little) Dub Cee does what it can to keep up and turns out some pretty decent sandwiches.

But it lacks soul. It lacks spirit. It doesn't have any of the flavor that the Genova's in Oakland had and each sandwich churned out is indicative of that. It's just not that good. And for a sandwich you have to wait a mighty long time for, it better be good. Real good. So, I've come to terms with the fact that I don't have a Genova's left to go to and that's okay. Sometimes it's better to have loved and lost (a sandwich) than never to have loved at all.

But what I love most is that they are innovators--they do not sit around and let the menu get dusty, they are always doing something new. New drinks, new cold foams, adding an ice cream machine. And not in a way that feels like whiplash, but just like menu drops that make sense. This is how you run a place that is good to locals and people visiting for the first time... You keep it interesting and that's what they do. So many local spots fall into the same old thing with zero changes and I genuinely LOVE that The Market isn't doing that!! 10/10.

I ordered two different fillings, and when she was packing them, I asked if she could please label them so I would know which one was which. She responded by saying, "I wasn't going to make you guess." I did not find that very friendly. In fact, I thought it was borderline rude.
