    The Bavarian Delight Sandwich & The Firehouse Gouda Sandwich
    Jackie B.

    We had been passing by this strip mall and finally decided to give this sandwich spot a try. Before you walk in there are three to four tables outside, and inside they had four tabletops on the left. Mr Ray Ray's has the same concept as Subway. They offer both pre-set sandwiches for convenience and the traditional "build-your-own" option where you pick the bread, meat, vegetables, cheese and condiments. You can also pick your own chips & grab your own drink. Ray Ray made our sandwiches and was very helpful. We were both going to order the same pastrami sandwich. He talked us into getting two different sandwich to share and recommended we try one hot & one cold. I was dead set on the "Bavarian Delight". He suggested the "Firehouse Gouda" with jalapeño bread. When we were dining he received a phone call from a customer who had to call to let him know how good the sandwiches were. And I have to agree! The sandwiches were freshly made and the customer service is excellent. You can tell Ray Ray has so much passion. He was all smiles and just had a friendly demeanor.

    Philly Cheesesteak
    Brian D.

    Mr. Ray Ray's is my favorite sandwich in San Diego! All of his sandwiches are wonderful. Juicy, fresh, hot. I had the pleasure of watching Ray construct 10 or so sandwiches. He's an absolute artist. Today, we ordered the Philly Cheesesteak. He took raw green peppers, red onions and mushrooms...chopped them up and added fresh London broil. Into the back to get cooked up fresh and cheese melted! WOWWWWW Restaurant always clean, everyone always cheerful and helpful. Ray says, "Tell me what you want and I will make it for you!

    Wrap
    Ramiz K.

    This place is AMAZING! The owner is very kind and friendly and helped me choose what to get for my first time, I went for a jalapeño cheddar wrap with ham. provolone, and bacon. The wrap itself is Huge, very fairly priced and tastes amazing. You can tell all the products are very fresh and the shop itself is newly remodeled and offers great variety of chips, drinks, and Mac salad. 100% recommend to anyone in the area

    Build your own Tuna sandwich
    Steve H.

    Really good! The King sandwich is huge, easily two lunches. I wanted a Tuna sandwich, and Ray's delivered -- nice fresh bread roll, sprouts, banana peppers.. the whole deal, All toppings, specialty breads, and sauces are included. Delicious -- the kind of sandwich where you pick up all the bits that dropped. The shop is nice and clean, well-lit, and the foot prep area is spotless and organized. All the veggies were fresh, even on a holiday weekend. Seating inside and outside, plenty of parking. There's a reward program through the Clover app. It's a block from Valhalla High School, this place is going to do just fine.

    Clean as hell interior

    Quite possibly the best sandwich I've ever had. Was a bit overwhelmed by all the fun options, but it obviously came down to the The Ray Ray Royale. A serious game changer. We swapped the mortadella for rotisserie chicken because, after he kindly insisted we sample it, we knew we needed that. So tender and flavorful and randomly paired super well with the "ground beef patty" (which is actually thinly sliced meatball in case you're assuming it's more burger-like.) All of the ingredients melded together beautifully into a mountainous pile on a perfect jalapeño roll. The fresh arugula, tomato, pickled red onion, pepperoncinis, and jalapeños that we added, complemented each other wonderfully with the signature sauce which he described as a creamy steak sauce. Genius! It's also an insane value for the price. Me and my dude split the first half there and got fairly full, then gladly polished off the second half a couple hours later. We enjoyed it even more once we toasted it up a bit. It does the bread more justice. So, definitely upgrade and get the full sandwich or you'll regret it later. Trust me. The lemonades are great, too. Made with real sugar. All of them are tasty but I liked the mango one best. Not only that, the place is immaculately clean. All the tables, the restroom, the whole damn setup is somehow completely spotless. Add to all of this one of thee kindest & most welcoming business owners I've ever encountered. He was so accommodating and patient with us and extremely forthcoming and honest about any questions we had. Never got to meet his adorable kids but this is a true mom & pop that's purely run by him, his wife, and 4 children. We wish them all the success, prosperity , and longevity. They truly deserve it!

    The food was so good omg! The person who helped me was super knowledgeable about all their interesting cheeses and mayos and was able to give me a great recommendation that was delicious! Absolutely would come back!

    1st time here and I had a great experience! Everyone was very friendly and accommodating from the moment we walked in. The portions were very generous and everything was clean and well kept. The food and overall atmosphere were amazing. Definitely looking forward to coming back!

    Hot Mess Sandwich
    Chrissy P.

    These are my new favorite sandwiches. They also have really good soup. Ask to sign up for their rewards program, buy 9 sandwich get the 10th free. And they also send you texts when they have daily specials like a free drink and chips with your sandwich.

    The Grand Deli and the Honey Milano

    Come and get food from Mr. Ray Rays!!! We have been here so many times and I can't stop coming back. The sandwiches are so delicious and HUGE! I got the Grand Deli and my husband got the Honey Milano.

    Delicious sandwiches, you get a lot for your money! Clean and welcoming, really an awesome place for lunch or dinner. Lots of veggies and a plethora of meats and sauces!

    The Gobbler Deluxe on Whole Wheat Roll
    Jack M.

    Mr. Ray Ray's has recently taken over Deli Belly's location in the El Cajon, Rancho San Diego location. They are just getting underway and are indeed making sandwiches. I ordered the 6" Gobbler Deluxe, which came with sliced Overgold turkey, bacon, Vermont cheddar, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, mustard, and mayo on a wheat roll. You get to choose the type of bread you like. The sandwich cost $9.99 plus tax. The sandwich was good and they put a good amount of each ingredient in the sandwich with the exception of the bacon. It could of used one or two more slices. The turkey was tasty and the lettuce and tomatoes were fresh. The wheat roll was flavorful but I little on the dry side. They should consider warming it up or toasting it. Also, offering a little olive oil and wine vinegar mixture to be drizzled on the lettuce would be nice, too. The service was friendly. The young lady who made my sandwich was nice. The place is a family business. They offer inside and some outside seating.

    Great Sandwiches
    Andre E.

    Mr. Ray Rays sandwiches are next level. One of the best sandwiches I've had in a while. The owner is very attentive and provides great service. If you're looking for a great sandwich at a reasonable price, come visit Mr. Ray Ray's. The establishment is super clean and a relaxing ambience.

    Rachel D.

    The customer service here is excellent! Everyone is super helpful and understanding because when you make little mistakes with your order, they handle it so kindly. The food itself is delicious, and I love that they have a cute little meal deal with chips and a drink to make it a combo. It's such a nice touch! What really makes the experience special is that Mr. Ray Ray himself is there so getting to meet and interact with the owner adds such a personal, genuine feel. You can tell he cares about the food and the people. Overall, amazing service, great food, and a super friendly vibe. Highly recommend!

I stopped in recently and was blown away by the entire experience from start to finish. ​The Food ​First and foremost, the food is delicious. You can tell they use high-quality, fresh ingredients. Every bite was packed with flavor, and the presentation was beautiful. Whether you're looking for a solid caffeine fix or a full meal, they absolutely nail the menu. ​The Service ​The service here is top-notch. The staff is incredibly welcoming, attentive, and genuinely friendly. I didn't have to hunt anyone down for a refill or a napkin; they were proactive and made me feel right at home. It's clear they take pride in what they do. ​The Ambiance ​The atmosphere is just "right." It has a really nice ambiance, chic yet cozy, making it the perfect spot for a productive work session, a catch-up brunch with friends, or even a relaxed solo date. The lighting and decor create a vibe that makes you want to stay for "just one more" coffee. ​The Verdict: Tappi's Cafe is the real deal. Great food, stellar service, and a beautiful space. I'll definitely be back soon! ​Highly recommended!

Warning, unless you specify a regular size they will bring you the large, 16 ounce by default. I would prefer if they asked what size we wanted first. We ordered the shakshuka, the veggie georgian cheese pie and the soufflé pancake. The pancake takes 20-30 minutes and cones with a bit of whip cream some fruit and syrup. Overall the shakshuka and the pie were very good. The soufflé pancake was a bit of a let down. Let's just say I've had better Japanese soufflé pancakes elsewhere. I would likely go back and try some of their other dishes.

It's a walk-up, order and pay first kind of place, then you grab a seat, which was super easy and casual. The person taking my order was incredibly nice and patient while I figured everything out. Honestly, all the food I saw coming out looked amazing, which made it even harder to choose. They have plenty of seating both inside and outside, including a really nice covered patio, which I loved. The service really stood out to me. Even though you order up front, the servers were very attentive and came by multiple times to check on us and offer drink refills, which you don't always get in this type of setup. I ordered the steak plate with mushrooms and mashed potatoes, and everything was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The mushrooms were especially good. The only small thing was I wish the food had been a little hotter when it came out, but the taste definitely made up for it. My only other note is I wish they had unflavored iced tea. All the options were flavored, and since I'm not a soda drinker, that would've been nice to have. Overall, such a great first visit. Great food, great service, and a really comfortable atmosphere. I'll definitely be back.

Definitely not cleaning the table for us. A little more customer care and a real cleaning process would go a long ways to getting 5 stars from me.
