I went to the food truck in San Francisco and got the Turkey Deluxe. The sauce on the sandwich was impeccable, and the pesto was some of the highest quality I've had. The workers were extremely friendly and welcoming, and the sandwich was fresh and flavorful. I would definitely come back again. read more

My go to deli. I know many will say Little Luccas os better, but if you don't want an extremely large and straight forward deli sandwich, this is the spot. The aromatic deli smells when you walk in gets your gears going. There is usually two sizes foe the sandwiches but the large usually does it for me and a other to shared and be completely satisfied. A large menu and plenty of chips drinks and random items to look at and possibly buy. There's a pretty big dining area inside as well where you can opt to eat. The staff are always super friendly amd are easy to chit chat with. Because the deli is t mega busy the wait times are fast as well. You can even order for pick up as well. Parking is easy and location is easy to spot. Always a go to when in the mood for a large good quality deli sandwich. read more

WOW! I sad over the change with the new owners. I knew the original owners and then the ones following. ALL honored the legacy of quality by previous owners. I picked up a couple sandwiches today and got home to find both had almost NO meat!!! it was all bread and cheese, one layer of meat. I'm beyond sad, was hopeful these new owners would follow in the quality of footsteps before them. Hope the step up as the deli, and its reputation. read more

The guy at the deli was friendly and chatty. There's a seating area. The deli seems nostalgic, but it was clean. Also, they sell toys, chips, drinks, and Pokemon Cards there. I ordered a sandwich and a container of pasta salad. The ingredients were fresh and delicious. read more

Great local sandwich shop that makes flavorful sandwiches. Friendly staff that hustles get the orders to the customers. Fresh salads are also offered along with a big array of chips and bottled drinks. As of last week they now offer tea drinks and desserts that I haven't tried yet but they look delicious. Plenty of indoor seating with a big screen tv to keep entertained. read more

I ordered Dutch crunch roast beef sandwich and it was 10 out of 10. But price was insane. Yes, everywhere is expensive, I get that, doesn't mean I have to like it. I just venting, back in 80's it was only $3 bucks for roast beef sandwich. Yeah, that makes me a boomer. read more

Came back to Roma Deli because a colleague had went and inspired me to return again! I ordered a couple of different small sandwiches, got the tuna and the roast beef sandwich. Both were solid on their soft sweet roll and the toast was a nice touch. I got both sandwiches because I wanted two different flavors in a single meal and it was the best of both worlds. I did feel like there was a little bit less roast beef they put into the sandwich was less than the last time though. The prices have gone up slightly since my last review (which is to be expected in 2024) but I think the value is still there. A small sandwich is good for a regular appetite size. With their regular sandwiches starting around $11 and larges up to $16. Going with one of their signature sandwiches is a good way to save some cash instead of building your own. They have street parking and a lot behind the business. Do remember to pay your meters as San Bruno has implemented a new pay for parking system. read more

Needed a quick sandwich near SFO before a long, rainy drive back to Sonoma County. We found Roma Deli on Yelp. It's only a 10 minute drive away and it did the trick. The name is a bit confusing to me because nothing about this deli seemed particularly Italian. Italian or not, it satisfied our hanger and didn't break the bank, so we left happy. I got a vegetarian sando on toasted sourdough roll (fresh lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles, avocado, and provolone). My guest opted for a gyro. Both were large and warm. I'm not in San Bruno often, but if I find myself hungry near SFO again, I'd return. read more

Greetings to all, l haven't been to Roma Deli in a few years, l was hoping for some change for the good; not today. The place itself hasn't changed much at all, dimly lit with lunch room seating for a small group of people, but for what I have seen; l don't think they could handle a lunch crowd along with their online orders. The service was great but after completing my sales transaction, no receipt was given , and I didn't notice it until I got home. I ordered the Turkey Bacon club sandwich on Soft roll, the roll was (tuff - dry ) and shorter on one side than the other making for an uneven bite for the sandwich itself. The sandwich had maybe 2 pieces of Bacon in it and I asked and paid for extra meat , the name of the sandwich is (Turkey Bacon Club) . Anyway, it has been a few years since my last visit, and may well be a few more before I come back again. read more

I went to the food truck in Mission Bay and I had 1 of the best sandwiches I've ever had in my life. I had the large turkey sandwich with extra meat and the sandwich was perfect. Please note that the pesto sauce, quality of the bread, and the amount of outstanding turkey breast made it the grand slam of sandwiches. read more

Sandwiches are always on point. Fresh ingredients and made to my liking. Staff is always pleasant.

Turkey deluxe supreme, toasted, on dutch crunch. One of the best sandwiches I have had in a while. Ordered via DoorDash and was super fresh. The bread was toasted yet melted in my mouth so nicely. read more

Went and got 2 sandwiches one was a BLT and something on it taste like mold. Yall better check ure products before putting it on the sandwiches . I knew there was a reason I don't go there anymore read more

I lived a few blocks away for over 2 decades and used to come to Roma all the time atleast 1-2 times a week when it was the previous older Korean husband and wife who owned Roma. Flash forward to current day, I moved a city over and haven't been to Roma in years. I got my Turkey supreme and the Dutch seemed smaller, the bread was over toasted and almost burnt and it did not taste the same. Prices have Increased which is fine due to cost of produce going up. I noticed that the deli looked odd with random trinkets and collectibles for sale. Years ago there would always be a line out the door, but now its empty and I could see why. I realize this area is competitive with Delis and sandwiches, but after my last visit I'll be going elsewhere for sandwiches. For those who never had sandwiches from "the old roma" they may not know the difference, but for those who supported over the years will be hit with the reality that these sandwiches aren't the same. Won't be coming back... Hope nothing but the best for the new owners, but they have to step up the quality. read more

I was in the San Bruno neighborhood, and decided to finally give this place a spot because I was craving a sandwich. This place did not disappoint, and will be added as part of the Bay Area sandwich rotation.. I grabbed the roast beef BLT, and it was so tasty that I didn't even have time to grab a photo. A large size is the equivalent to a Little Lucca sandwich. The dutch crunch was fantastic and I appreciated the option to toast the bread (I did, and it made the sandwich perfect). The staff who took my order was very pleasant and friendly, and was kind in asking about all the sandwich options like toppings and toast. The cashier was especially amicable to all who entered. I appreciate how much seating was available, as well as the options for snacks. I am eager to try the potato and Mac salad next time. It is a very casual spot, and a bit too dark. The parking situation is can be tricky and inconvenient. read more

Roma Deli is in the downtown part of San Bruno. Small family owned deli with nice folks. Order at the counter and they'll prepare the order. I ordered the roast beef club on sourdough. Once received, quickly noticed it is a huge sandwhich. But it was a bit bland since only mayo is put on the sandwhich. I guess next time, can ask for mustard, etc. Compared to Little Lucca's the quality and freshness is there. Price is about the same. But the overall taste goes to Little Lucca's. Street parking only read more

Probably the best value sandwich in a 10 mile radius. Quality on par or better than Little Lucca SSF, miles better than Little Lucca Burlingame, and sandwiches are even more massive than either. Great bread and amazing garlic spread. To me, Leonardo's is slightly better quality, but Roma has the value for money. You could literally feed 3 people with a large sandwich. The service is excellent and you rarely need to stand in line. One of the best lunch spots in San Bruno. read more

Great neighborhood deli. They're so friendly and have great recommendations. We love that they nearly always have Dutch crunch bread available. Consistently delicious! read more

I came here with a pretty good appetite looking for a sandwich after dropping my mother-in-law off at SFO. This place is very old and has probably been here more than 50 years. The front server was friendly and kindly let me use the restroom in the back which entailed moving past a vertical folding screen in place to discourage rift raft I guess. The server recommended the Italian beef over the meatball sub even though he preferred the meatball sub. I'd never had an Italian beef so I ordered it on a soft roll with hot spread. I had to wait a few minutes in the small dining area which was simply decorated and clean. Overall the sandwich tasted very good with the warm toasted bread and provolone cheese and dipping sauce but I didn't really like the beef, mixed vegetables (carrots, cauliflower, cabbage), and the hot spread which had chopped jalapeños. Nonetheless I would like to come back to try the meatball sub. read more

I'm surprised this place just caught my attention recently while in the area, as I love sandwiches. Especially with coppa, mortadella, and salami. I opted for the large ny sandwich with Dutch crunch. It was huge! Decent price. It was reminiscent of Luca's, with a smear of fresh garlic spread. The sandwich was fresh but definitely will take me a few days to finish. Friendly staff and fast service. The dining area was clean. read more

Roma Deli - Pastrami Sandwich on sourdough! Soooo good!! - Italian Near Me - San Bruno, California

Roma Deli has the best sourdough rolls! They are delivered fresh everyday!! I always order roast beef with everything except mustard and pickles. Toast the bread only!! The owners and the staff always have a smile and knows your order when you come in! We order from them 1-2 x a week! Definitely our place to go for a good deli sandwich!! read more

*Just a heads up, if you select sourdough bread, it is very thin because they don't use sourdough rolls; They use sourdough toast. The Hot Reuben has a good amount of meat and is quite filling. As always, Boar's Head deli meats are wonderful! For bread, I chose Dutch Crunch and both the meat and the bread tasted pretty good. Unlike some other sandwich shops, the bread wasn't dry at all and you can taste the freshness. That's much appreciated! The bread wasn't very thick or extra crunchy compared to Dutch Crunch breads from other deli shops I've tried though. This can be a hit or miss depending on your own preferences. I personally prefer the thick, crunchy ones. But either way, it's still great when it comes to taste! read more

Roma Deli - Hot Reuben + Dutch Crunch bread - Italian Near Me - San Bruno, California

There a a couple of sandwich shops that stand out in the area and what makes them special is their specialty sandwiches. But when it comes to their basic deli sandwiches they are pretty much on the same playing field, except for their prices. In retrospect Roma's is just as good AND you don't have to buy a gigantic sandwich, so it's a little cheaper. They get busy, but not the 10+ people in line waiting kind of busy. Their service is respectfully quick and their chip selection is pretty broad. They have some seating inside which is nice so you can eat that toasted sandwich while it still hot. Overall unless I'm jonesing for a specialty my go to is Roma's read more

Roma Deli is a pretty good spot for sandwiches in San Bruno. I like the food options in this part of San Bruno although definitely dissapointed that you have to pay for parking when it is not even a prime location :( I stopped by Roma and it is definitely on the older side, but the people working there are pretty friendly and there is seating inside although this is more of a grab and go kind of spot. They also sell snacks on the shelves and surprisingly also Sanrio items so if you come with a partner that is obsessed with that then you might end up buying more than just sandwiches. I got the New York Special Sandwich ($14.45 for a Large/$11.95 for a Regular). It comes with salami, coppa, mortadella, provolone, oil & vinegar. I also got it with everything on it although I somehow forget that usually comes with pickles and I dislike pickles on anything. So next time I'd definitely say everything, but pickles! The ingredients they used are super fresh and the salami and coppa are sooo good. I also like their dutch crunch and you can get it toasted which I opoted for although the roof of my mouth hates that decision. I'd say it's a 8/10 sandwich. The meat they don't stack as much as other of the top tier deli's sandwiches, but still was an enjoyable meal. Definitely worth a return. read more

Roma Deli - Turkey club with jalapeño spread and Hawaiian BBQ chips! - Italian Near Me - San Bruno, California

I've ordered food here numerous times and felt it was time for a quick review. Yesterday, I ordered the hot pastrami sandwich on a french roll. I had it with the garlic pesto and it was amazing. So amazing I was thinking of ordering the exact same thing for lunch today. They're prosciutto sandwich was what I usually get and it'll always be a good choice, but that hot pastrami. The prices are great as well. read more

Always heard this place has great sandwiches and a few weeks ago had a chance to try it. The Sandwich well exceeded my expectations. It was so big I made it into 2 meals. Met the owner John and he was super cool and very personable. Can't wait try to other Sando's in the future. read more

Roma Deli - Turkey Supreme - Italian Near Me - San Bruno, California

A solid deli that has replaced Little Lucca's for me whenever I'm craving a chicken salad sandwich. For some reason the last few times I've been to Little Lucca's for their chicken salad sandwich it tasted bland, but Roma has not disappointed me in that regard! Their chicken salad sandwich is always tasty and you have the added bonus of having your sandwich toasted (which Luccas does not offer)! Love their Dutch crunch bread as well. It's crunchy without being hard. I've been coming here for years and even through owner changes their quality and taste has stayed consistent! Keep it up! read more

Love these sandwiches, especially Dutch crunch bread. Worth the visit if you are in the area.

My sister and brother in law frequently order from them. They are a nice family. We called in our order for pick up. It's located on San Bruno Ave around many other restaurants. Street parking is hard unless you're lucky. We usually go in pairs, one drives and the other hops out lol Food was ready upon pick up. We ordered the hot pastrami and the hot turkey both with pickles and their garlic spread. Yum! We love their garlic spread! We have also tried their meatball sandwich and that's equally delicious too. Their meatballs are soft and they offer plenty of sauce. It's one of our favorite places for deli sandwiches. Definitely worth it! read more

They make a terrific sandwich ! Very friendly staff and now a rewards program! Love this place!

My uncle took me here as a kid and I remember the food was always good. Now as an adult, nothing has changed, the sandwiches are GREAT. Perfection combination of meat to veggies ratio and it's convientyly located close to El Camino Real. Parking can be a little challenging, but there is a lot to the rear and street parking as well. Service is always quick and friendly as well. Check it out! read more

What a great Old School Deli! Decent street parking, plus spaces behind the shop. The staff is efficient and pretty busy so be patient and articulate. There is also ample inside seating, and a decent selection of Chips to add to your Lunch. Pricing is not cheap, but it's also inline with many other shops with a Small Sandwich running around $10 and a Large about $12. As for my experience, there was some confusion over my order which was annoying, but not a game changer (I try not to be a Ken). My Sandwich though was ample, quickly made, and jammed full of fresh ingredients. Lunch was yummy. So yes I would suggest checking out Roma Deli if in the area wanting a Sandwich, but also note that Hana Hawaiian BBQ is also down the block and they are open past 3:00pm. read more

Why did it take me so long to try Roma Deli when I've been getting my hair done up the block for over a year?! I stopped by on a Tuesday a few months back before 12pm. They were busy, but the gentleman who helped me was so friendly. I got the smaller size New York special on Dutch Crunch, toasted, no mustard and no pickles. While it was a "small" it was big, not Little Lucca's huge but a good super filling size. It was also under $10, what a steal! My sandwich was ready in about 4-5. The New York Special is a pork deli meat lover's dream: filled with mortadella, salami, coppa, provolone, and oil and vinegar. It wasn't overly salty and the meat tasted great. And, of course, their garlic sauce is fire! Yes, I still love Little Lucca, but I feel like sometimes Little Lucca can be a bit inconsistent (not with the ginormous sandwiches but sometimes quality) and they're like always super busy so the customer service can be so-so. Love how there's some gems like Roma in the downtown San Bruno area steps away from where I get my hair done. If only I could eat the sandwich while I have a ton of foils in my hair. LOL eating even the smallest snack can be a challenge, but The New York Special is worth the wait after several hours in the chair. read more
