We were traveling through the area and I'm so glad we decided to stop at this deli. I had the chicken salad sandwich, and it was so good! My husband ordered the pizza, and he said it was delicious as well. The customer service was great, and the overall experience was wonderful. Highly recommended! read more

Alright, this place has been hyped up for their Philly cheesesteak, so I had to check it out. If you're a Philly cheesesteak fan, you already know it's not easy finding a legit spot. Took my wife with me and we ordered the Philly cheesesteak and the smashed burger. I'd give both a solid 4 stars. The cheesesteak definitely brings the flavor. No complaints there. My only thing is the extra heavy cheese and the overall presentation. I get it, some people love that overloaded look, but for me, it just didn't look that appetizing. Still a good sandwich though, no doubt. You can't please everyone. The smashed burger was decent. Nothing crazy, but it gets the job done. Now let's talk about the location. This place is tucked deep in an industrial area, and it's not exactly convenient unless you're already nearby. Deep in an industrial zone, tucked inside what basically feels like a warehouse. Not exactly screaming "let's dine here." Also, the wait time... yeah. Our food took a while, and we weren't the only ones noticing. Another customer was waiting on a pizza and was clearly frustrated. End of the day, the food is good and worth trying at least once, especially for the cheesesteak. Just be ready for the mission to get there and a bit of a wait. read more

Came here on a recommendation from a friend to try the Philly cheesesteak, and it definitely lived up to the hype. The location is a bit tucked away with not much foot traffic, but when I visited, the place was busy--which is always a good sign. The owner, James, was very friendly and suggested either the pizza or the Philly cheesesteak. I went with the cheesesteak, and it was easily one of the best I've had in California. Great flavor, cooked right, and very satisfying. If you're in the area, it's worth stopping by. Solid food and great service. read more

RiverCrust Deli - Delis Near Me - Riverside, California

Long time coming for a review after many visits, but we're here now. Rivercrust Deli is worth the visit if you live in the area or don't, it's a must to make a visit. Everyone raves about the Philly because it is phenomenal & different with a great twist to the point where every visit I get one no matter what. BUT the burgers, wings, pizzas, pastrami, fries (loaded or regular), cold sandwiches, are all worth a try--because honestly, everything is pretty damn good here. A small business I will continue to support! ALSO, now open Saturdays 11AM-7:30PM! Get it while the gettin' is good! Thanks for sharing your culinary greatness with the community James! read more

Small deli located in a random business center. Food is delicious and service was good. Been here twice. Once for the cheesesteak and once for the stuffed Avacado. Seriously chefs kiss read more

Stopped by around 7:10 pm, about twenty minutes before closing, and the staff couldn't have been more helpful. They had run out of large pizza boxes earlier in the evening, but the person working quickly came up with a solution, which I appreciated. I ordered a large extra-cheese, extra-sauce pepperoni and sausage pizza, and it turned out to be the best pizza I've had so far in Riverside. We recently moved from the Bay and have been on the hunt for great pizza and good value. This spot is tucked away in a quiet warehouse area with a simple interior, but none of that mattered. The food delivered. The pizza came out hot, fresh, cheesy, and full of flavor. Several people came in for pick-ups while I waited, and everyone seemed to know exactly why they were there: the pizza. If you're looking for a solid, well-made pie, this place is worth the stop. read more

Finally got to try their pastrami pizza. Bcuz they make their doughs in house everything here is so fresh and so good. I have no issues digesting their flour dough. Hope it stays this way. Tried their different hot sandwich and this was also melt in your mouth type of goodness! The owner is present at the deli shop and he is so friendly. Spacious, and air conditioned. read more

This place is so, so, so good. Tucked in a business park, it's unsuspecting to find such an amazing place with such great service. We ordered the cheesesteak sandwich and a large half pepperoni and half cheese pizza. We were greeted by the owner who also makes the food, and he is so nice and outgoing. We really appreciated his great personality and welcoming demeanor. The decor is nice and inviting. The sandwich was absolutely delicious and all the flavors complimented each other - the soft, fresh bread they make there in the restaurant, the chipotle mayo, the white cheese, the handmade sliced ribeye meat... just epic. The pizza crust is nice and chewy with a slight crisp, the sauce is delicious and rich. We loved it. The owner informed us that they have secret menu items that they post on their Instagram just about daily, so make sure to follow them on Instagram too so you can see the special secret stuff that they make. We were very lucky to partake in their rotational desert menu because we had some of the best cheesecake we've ever had.. we ordered the banana cheesecake and the plain cheesecake with berries on top and both of them were excellent. It was a tough pick, but we would say the banana barely edged out the berry. We can't wait to go back and try the pastrami sandwich and something off the secret menu. If you want an excellent sandwich and pizza shop along with some great conversation with the owner, this is the place that you need to go to. read more

So a while back, I picked up and order (DoorDash) from this small hidden gem (unbeknownst to me at that time) the order smelled so good, so I told myself, I gotta try this place, I finally had the pleasure to try it, I called in my order, the 10" supreme, was my order, but my concern was if the dough was going to hold well with all the toppings, which is what I asked the friendly young lady when she took my order and she said "yes, it will hold up well". So I order the 10" supreme combo (w/ chips & a coke). After my second slice, I realized she was absolutely correct. Great dough and the pizza tasted great. Will definitely be going back. And for those of you that can't decide on where to get your pizza fix from? Well, I highly recommend this location. It's a must try. Great customer services as well. Pardon the attached image, I was devouring it while writing this review....(I typically save the crust for last) read more

Ok, don't get me wrong the pastrami sandwich was good, but not $16 good. I say it's a perfect $11 with tax. The pastrami was very tasty and the bread was nice and soft, yet fresh. But small portion for the amount I paid. Ambiance, well it's just a hole in the wall commercial deli and it did take a long time to prepare the order. Could just hear the staff BS in the kitchen. Nice to have them get along but don't forget there are customers waiting in the front counter. read more

RiverCrust Deli - Hot pastrami very tasty but small portion for the amount paid. - Delis Near Me - Riverside, California

Pizza is fantastic. Sandwiches are fantastic. The bread is so freaking good! I have yet to find something here I don't like. Wish they were open on the weekends but I understand, there would be no foot traffic since it is in an industrial park. Service has always been nice as well. read more

My review is based on my first visit, ordering the Philly Cheesesteak. I'm all about different variations of a Cheesesteak, so if you are looking for an authentic Philly Cheesesteak, this is not the place. The Cheesesteak comes on a large puffy almost dinner roll type of bread which was okay but could have been a bit more crusty on the outside to give it more texture. I think the sandwich would have been good had it not been overcooked (scorched) which caused the thin ribeye to have a hard hamburger like texture. The burnt taste made the meat, onion and mushroom indistinguishable from each other. Luckily the chipotle mayo made the sandwich edible. Please train your cook how to properly make this sandwich, because it's probably really good. I'll try this place again, hopefully having a better experience. One last note, the staff was very nice and polite, 5 Stars for you! read more

We had a wonderful family meal here. Great food and friendly service!. The pizzas are outstanding! We tried BBQ chicken, pepperoni, ham and pineapple, and the often recommended pickle pizza. The hot pastrami and Philly steak sandwiches were tasty too. Make sure to ask about the off menu items like the hot turkey and pepper sandwich or the pickle pizza. The berry compote cheesecake and cinnamon stick bites with chocolate and berry sauce were a perfect finish. Highly recommend it all! read more

I ordered for lemon pepper wings, meat lovers pizza and Philly cheese steak for pick up. The Philly cheesesteak was my favorite. It has so much flavor! Definitely must try.

Plain and simple,, best Pizza I had to date. Fresh mozzarella and pepperoni yum. The classic red sauce was perfect not too sweet or overly seasoned. Ordered a Philly cheese just to try it out also..... bomb! Quality rib eye steak was tender and juicy, melt cheese and the bread OMG. Cashier was very friendly and I think the owner served me my pizza which was awesome got to connect with the cook which is rare. It's tucked off in a corner of Riverside little quote pizzeria I think needs more Recognition. I definitely will be back the pizza alone was enough to make me a life long customer read more

I've been here a few times and the food has always been good. My wife was in the mood for a sandwich place for our lunch date so we came here. This time around I wanted a cold sandwich so I went the Italian sub and my wife went with the Philly cheese steak which she said was good. I also ordered the secret menu Philly Cheese steak fries which was pretty good. I hate to say it, but I didn't care for their Italian sub. Yes, the bread is super soft but it didn't do anything for this sandwich. I only ended up eating half, but ate the other half later on at night but i made my own additions. I added a slice of swiss, mayo and mustard and the sandwich turned out really good. This doesn't take away from the place because they have very good food in general, the service is great and the place is clean. Must try! read more

The turkey bacon avocado sandwich was unbelievably good. Absolutely exceeded my expectations. All the ingredients were so so so fresh and the bread was so soft and good. Good option if you're looking for something on the healthier side. Fries were also really good, fresh, and extra crispy. The guy working at the counter was so friendly and nice. Service was also fast/prompt for takeout. I'm bummed I don't live close and was just passing through the area, or I'd absolutely be back. read more
