    Veggie Sandwich (with Turkey added$
    Andrea G.

    This spot is SO rad! They offer delicious food (incredible sandwiches), great entertainment (games & live music) and aesthetics (super cute interior)! This place has it all, it's whatever u want to make of your experience here!

    The inside is big and spacious, so it's a great spot for groups. You can sit wherever you'd like, and the server will come by to help you. We got the turkey sandwich, and it was huge so it's definitely great for sharing. Since we split it, our server kindly let us each choose a different side, which I thought was a nice touch. The staff was really friendly and attentive, and the sandwiches are super filling and generously sized.

    Came here for drinks on a Friday afternoon. Was hoping to get French fries to drink but, it's a deli... no deep fryer. I had the club sandwich. It was good. I was surprised that it was a thick sandwich. Don't see that very much anymore. This place is by a college so it gets busy on the weekend nights. Overall had a good time and would come back. Great place to watch the games on Sunday.

    I was told to go here by dear friends who I consider family since they know I love deli food. Easy ride from Long Beach and parking behind the business and on the street. When I walked in, I was transported to Ireland. The decor is Irish all the way and the selection of Whiskeys is awesome. They were out of my Tullamore Dew, didn't carry my Stella but had Redbreast. I had Redbreast (neat) and an 805 chaser, with a large water and lemon. I ordered the Pastrami on a roll with mustard and Swiss cheese. A pickle slice on the side and potato salad. The bartender/server was friendly, and I hate that I didn't get her name. They have a Touch Tunes jukebox and that was fun as well. Being retired has given me the chance to go to establishments I've never been to before and I'm enjoying the journey. The joys of being a Foodie!!!!!

    Some sandwich spots are good... and then there are the ones you keep going back to because they just get it right every time. We love Roscoe's Famous Deli in Fullerton. The atmosphere is always fun and relaxed, and the entire staff is consistently friendly and welcoming. It's the kind of neighborhood spot where the service is great and you feel comfortable settling in for a good meal. The sandwiches here are huge and loaded with flavor, and the sides are just as good. Our go-to order is the Big Mikey, which never disappoints. It's stacked high, packed with flavor, and more than enough to satisfy your sandwich craving. We usually pair it with both the pasta salad and potato salad, which complement the sandwich perfectly. The jalapeño chips on the side add the perfect crunch and a little kick. And of course, you can't go wrong with their schooner beers while you're eating. Before leaving we always grab a black and white cookie to go, which is the perfect sweet finish. Between the great service, generous portions, and classic deli feel, this place continues to be one of our favorite spots in Fullerton. If you're looking for a deli with huge sandwiches and a fun atmosphere, Roscoe's should definitely be on your list

    VEGGIE SANDO! Oh my gosh. The best veggie sandwich I've had in a long time! It was so good and fresh! The veggies were perfect. The avocado was ripe. I ordered extra avocado, and I think that was the right call lol I did extra cheese too. It was fantastic! Really good on the soft bread too! Every bite was satisfying. It was a good-sized sandwich. I did eat the whole thing and was full afterwards lol Service was good. They were really quick with making the sandwiches! I also got the pasta salad. That was pre-made in the cup. It tasted good and I like the Italian dressing they used on the pasta salad. Fresh and delicious! My husband got the pastrami sandwich and loved it. Ambiance was crowded. It was Labor Day weekend though. I expected it to be crowded everywhere lol Pricing is a bit steep. However, the sandwiches are a good size. I will definitely be back for that veggie sandwich! Sooo good.

    Italian job sandwich
    Mimi L.

    We come to downtown Fullerton from time to time but never tried this deli restaurant. Place is lively and gets crowded on weekends. Food is comfort food and great beer selections. The sandwiches we have tried were huge and delicious. Prices were reasonable and service was friendly. A great place for beers and sandwiches. And I really like sandwiches!

    Alejandra B.

    I'm surprised I hadn't left a review beforehand, this place is great. The service is good, the employees are very friendly. The food always hits the spot; I recommend the potato salad as a side. The pickles that come with your sandwich are perfect. The interior of the place is really fun and cool to look at, overall a nice atmosphere. Every now and then I drop by for a sandwich and it's consistently delicious. Definitely try this spot out if you haven't

    We popped over to Roscoe's on Saturday to hang out with a lively, fun group of friends and vibe in a little bit of holiday cheer after a couple of cocktails and mingling with friends we moved on for the day, so no food this time but the service is always amazing and we got to see our Grace, which is always a pleasure!

    The Italian Job
    Cindy N.

    I've been to Roscoe's in the evening for drinking and partying; it's a great venue for that as it's so open and spacious. This was my first time coming here for lunch. We came here around 2PM on a Saturday and there was no wait. I ordered The Italian Job, which was around $20. TBH I don't think a sandwich should be that pricey--but I did get two meals out of this since it was so large. It came with a side so I chose pasta salad, which was good but a bit salty. Overall, the sandwich was pretty good. I really liked the pepperoncini, which added a nice crunch and tiny bit of spice. The sandwich wasn't anything mind-blowing but it was solid; I'm interested in trying their other dishes next time.

    What a great place for a midweek lunch. The service was perfect. The patio is spectacular! I ordered the veggie sandwich and added tuna. It was perfect. Just a lovely afternoon here. I highly recommend.

    Dodgers' nite at OC
    Tyler B.

    Dodger's weekend at OC. No needs to review & i'ma tipsy. Good crowd, parking is horrible at Fullerton's weekend vibe! Back patio for chill! Sandwich place if you re looking for Sliders which is I was. Wings & 805 is fine this weekend. Worth to stop by. Nothing special about this one. Plenty of space for groupie !

    Turkey sandwich
    Ann V.

    Seriously it's one of my favorite spots downtown Fullerton. I love that there is an outdoor patio to enjoy food and a drink. The staff is always great, friendly and welcoming. We love their sandwiches and wings. We are never disappointed. Plenty of food to share.

    Soco sandwich and mac salad.

I wanted a low-caffeine option, so hojicha seemed like a good choice for the afternoon. Since I believe it was my first time trying hojicha, I could've gone without the mocha. It did go well with hojicha because the drink came out nicely chocolatey. The little lumps of blueberry were a treat to eat along with the drink. Overall, it was a delicious latte, and I finished it a little quickly. It was nice to see all the different kinds of decorations at their patio again. The music playing was a mix of American and Korean pop. Like before, the cashier gives you a pager that prompts you to come back to the counter to pick up your order. I parked by the curb on N. Richman Ave. as there was a lot of space to leave my car.

They also have happy hour Tuesdays-Thursday from 2:00-5:30pm, where they offer house wines for $5 and personal cheese board for $10. For boards, I usually get the Goldilocks specialty board, which comes with 3 cheeses ranging in texture from soft to hard. For an additional cost, you can add meat: prosciutto, salami, Spanish chorizo, or half & half of any two. For paninis, everything I've tried was very good. I've had the Signature which has a double-cream brie, pear slices, mixed greens, and fig jam. Lib Grilled Cheese comes with three premium cheese blend, grilled with olive oil, and minced garlic. All paninis are on their sourdough bread and served with their signature side salad. The decor here is very cute - showcasing their cheese fridge and shelves lined with wines and jams available for purchase. There are some tables both indoors and outside. I recently saw that they host events, offer quick same-day catering within 2-3 hours of ordering, and deliver for orders up to 50 people!

My first visit was a few months ago, and I felt like I was bothering our server for water refills, napkins and other things. It was a Saturday night and while it was not packed, it took about an hour to get 2 panini's. Went today for my birthday, and my adult son told the server that the three of us were sitting on patio. Server shows up with 2 menus and 2 glasses for water. Sees me and scolds my son for not telling her that there was a third person. She brings a 3rd glass but never a 3rd menu. I specifically mention that we are here for happy hour specials. There is only 1 other table occupied, otherwise it's empty. We wait over 20 minutes to place our order. 1 personal board supposed to be $10. Plus (2) panini's. Wait another 30+ minutes... get our food and that's it. No check in - no water refills. My son goes and gets the server for a box and to order another personal board. We wait another long period to get it. I go inside to taste some cheese. We add on something to our bill. It was $104... I do some quick math and assume the price is because of the cheese I added to the bill. I add a tip on the lowish side, because we didn't really get any "service" to be worth the $18 I added onto it. I get home to review the receipt... and was charged $20 for the personal boards + the add ons... I am so let down. I spent $130 and didn't get awesome service or the happy hour discount. I was expecting to pay $50-$60 ish, and this caught me off guard. I have learned my lesson and won't be going back. I added the pictures so yelp-er's can see portion sizes, of the personalized cheese board.

Service: 5/10 The staff were pretty timid, but they were nice. They took LONG ASF to make three little sandwiches. Bro, 30+ minutes?? For some sandwiches??? This is coming from someone who's worked food service. They weren't even busy fam. They had like 2-3 dine-in customers that already had their sandwiches and like 2 online orders. Also, some of the tables were dirty. Had to clean ours with a napkin. Ambiance: 6/10 The interior design was pretty nice. It did feel quite empty inside. The arrangement of the tables is pretty sporadic. They could definitely convert the tables into booths with all the space they got, but it seems like they don't get a lot of foot traffic. Parking lot was quite small, but my friends and I had no issues finding a spot. TDLR: Sandwiches aren't worth the price. If you don't care about prices, have at it. I wouldn't come back here purely because our sandwiches took 30+ minutes to come out as dine-in customers. Parking lot is small but found no problem finding a spot.
