RB Deli sits below street level where the rooftops of the business area it resides under is eye-level so you most definitely won't be able to see it if you're just driving by. Drive down the ramp to the various businesses in the lot and you'll see it on the right with the red awnings. Because of the location, this place caters to the surrounding businesses in the area and fortunately for me, my office building is right up the street from it. The menu is what you'll typically see in a business/office building location. From a breakfast burrito, bagels and toast, to hot and warm sandwich options for lunch. You won't find any special, housemade/craft sauces in their menu items but that's expected. I tried the Turkey California on sourdough with double meat and the heft in that sammie was just what I wanted. It was a good tasting sandwhich. I also ordered a breakfast burrito on the second visit and I wasn't really expecting much but it sure was delicious. The savory bits of gooey cheese, ham and bacon paired well with the warm and soft breakfast potatoes and flour tortilla. The burrito wasn't as large as what I'm used to but that's probably a good thing since I'd hate to have a morning food coma in the office. The interior has lots of space and has a very inviting atmosphere. I've yet to enjoy a dine-in experience since my office is so close but rest-assured I shall someday soon :) read more

My school used to be a building over so during our breaks we would come here to get coffee. The staff is nice and there is so much seating! It's nice to come here and relax even outside there is seating as well. read more

Not joking when I say this place might be my favorite deli ever. It's kind of a hidden gem and I think it's intended for the office people in the buildings around. I'm surprised it's not busier. I think if they had another location they would be crazy busy all the time. Even their coffees are amazing. I don't know the lady's name but she is always there at the register... she is the nicest human ever! I only wish they were open more often. read more

Always a great option for a quick lunch if I didn't bring one with me to work. Close by and convenient! read more

Best Reuben sandwich anywhere in San Diego in my opinion. Probably due to the Boers Head meats.

I just started working nearby and came here at 11:30am for lunch. I had the place to myself and a staff member took my order quickly and efficiently. I had a toasted turkey and bacon sandwich (they call it a California Turkey) and it was made with Boars Head. It was served on a plate with a pickle and I ate outside under an umbrella and enjoyed the beautiful surroundings. The only thing that I didn't like was the cost of the sandwich ($13) which I thought seemed quite excessive. All of the sandwiches were about the same price, some more. It was a delicious lunch but I most likely won't be back unless they lower the prices. read more

Best deli in the area Great food, nice people, plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. read more

It's close and convenient. I'm a soup a holic. They have usually 2 soups a day such as tomatoe bisque and chicken noodle. Got one of the sweeter apple spinach salads too. What you see in the photos below was enough for lunch and breakfast. read more

Rb Deli - Bagels Near Me - San Diego, California

Pricey and not good for the value. Sandwiches will run you roughly 10.00 and you don't even get service with a smile. I've tried the breakfast sandwiches, soups and cold sandwiches. Usually because it's late and I'm working through a late lunch. read more

Rb Deli - Bowl of chicken noodle soup 8.95 - Bagels Near Me - San Diego, California

Let me start off by saying that I don't take negative reviews lightly and I try to be as fair and open minded as possible. Employees make mistakes. Customers are too hard on employees as I am well aware from working in the service industry. Here's why I rate this place low: 1. I was told it would take 10 minutes to make my sandwich and I was there for 28 minutes stressing about whether or not I'd be able to return to work on time. 2. The worst part and the reason for the one star and not two: I grabbed a bag and opened it because the receipt said "turkey". As is common in the restaurant industry, people can screw up orders so I took it out of the wrapper and checked it. I was DEGRADED and EMBARRASSED in front of the other customers!! I was told "You're not allowed to do that! See, now that you did that she's going to have to wait longer for her food!" Even after apologizing profusely they showed no mercy and never said, "It's fine, everybody makes mistakes, but please pay attention to the name." I get that hygiene is very important in the age of covid however that was extremely rude and felt like total overkill. If I had talked to customers like that at the grocery store I used to work at I would be fired...or suspended without pay if I was lucky. It's not like I was stealing somebody else's food on purpose, it was an honest mistake. 3. The food, while not horrible, is nothing to write home about either. They use boar's head which I feel is mediocre at best and doesn't live up to the hype that they market themselves as. Their meat and cheese is very thinly sliced. Yep, my tummy is still growling after eating that measly sandwich. No bueno. 4. Lo and behold, THEY GOT MY ORDER WRONG. I asked for turkey, mayo, cheese and tomato, nothing else. I never asked for ham or lettuce and there was ham and lettuce on my sandwich. I CHECK MY ORDER FOR A REASON. Hey, how about following simple, exact instructions before you're nasty to people for making mistakes? See? You make mistakes too! If you want an AMAZING deli check out The Cheese Shop in La Jolla Shores. They don't skimp on meat and cheese, they're delicious and their sandwiches don't leave you hungry! read more

I loveeee going to this place. I don't live in San Diego but I am fortunate enough to work in this area and let me tell you, the food here is so FRESH and DELICIOUS. At first I was hesitant to come here because I was like "ehh a business building deli..." I just assumed that I would be bland like gas station food(which I would never recommend anyone eating) but I was pleasantly surprised! Everything taste amazing here and I could visit every single day if I could! But aside from the food, I am very appreciative of the customer service. Thank you guys for being so great! Can't wait to go back! My go to is always the turkey avocado bacon sandwich toasted read more

Pesto panini was BOMB! They use premium Boars Head for their food which is my fav! The place is clean and had nice decor. Great pit stop if you work nearby! The owner was really nice, he even introduced his daughter to us. I will be back! read more

I read most of the reviews below. Its a shame that this place does not know what making a correct sandwich is about. When one checks off "no onions" on the on-line order form, and gets a sandwich full of onions, that is not good. Kids working during the summer with no care at all. Sad to say, that I will not be returning. read more

Is this deli really open as yelp says it is? I have called multiple times over the last few months and never got an answer. Yep says it's open right now, 7:30 AM, but I just drove by and it was closed. Can anyone help me out? read more

My corporate training center is located in the same business park as RB Deli. It is so nice to be able to get high quality coffee and food without leaving the lot! Vishal was incredibly friendly as he made my latte, which was delicious! It's also so nice that they offer an array of different scent related items for your home like candles and incense! read more

Very disappointing. Expensive for what you get. $12 for a sandwich. $2 for a single can of soda. They are very slow and they didn't make my sandwich right. They used the wrong bread (which was stale anyway) and left off all of the vegetables. I won't be coming back. read more

Slow service and over priced for less than mediocre food. The cashiers in the front are really nice though (which is the reason for 1 star rating). I paid for extra meat in a sandwich but had the thinnest slice of meat. That was the only time I have ever ordered food here. I have gone back for coffee because of it being Cafe Moto but it still isn't the same. read more

Our work meetings are held in the building attached. I walked in too lazy too drive. I was greeted by Vishal. His energy was insane! He immediately was so welcoming and helpful with what to order. He was smiling and had just a truly contagious energy. The experience for me is the most important. They offer a selection of nice lunch options & drinks! Clean and rustic area to eat as well. Standard prices. Recommend! read more

I was not very impressed, with the menu selection! Although they do have four LCD screens with several items on it it's not like a traditional deli with maybe 40 different types of sandwiches in fact I couldn't even find the "chicken salad" sandwich? I think it's a tiny bit pricey and I can definitely say the amount of food in a pastrami sandwich that I ordered was not that much pastrami for what I would expect for the price! I think they're living up to the Rancho Bernardo area of being pricey... I would say if you're starving and you actually have to eat somewhere it's a place to eat :-) read more

Incredibly slow for a place that just sells boars head sandwiches. Not worth the extra time you'll spend here waiting.

Very nice spot for a quick bite to eat. It is nicely decorated, has outdoor seating, affordable prices and good food. Espresso drinks are coming and that will make it a complete one-Stop shop. read more

Toast was the most ridiculous thing I've ever been served. Toasted on only ONE side, and they expected me to say thank you. Served DRY, no butter. Asked for no cheese, and sure enough, the eggs were covered in cheese. I will never go back. read more

Love this deli, very new to the area but they have amazing sandwiches and the potato salad is amazing. I would highly recommend stopping by

Love the food here. Super friendly staff. GREAT sandwiches, salads and breakfast. If you like breakfast burritos, you won't be disappointed.

Lovely deli, but the prices are through the roof, guess that's the price you pay for convenience. I paid $5 and change for a ladle of soup, literally. read more
