Cupcake

Ordered cupcakes for my baby shower & was disappointed to find that the actual cake was super dense & dry. They were like cornbread muffins! The presentation of the frosting was simple, nothing memorable. We had so many cupcakes leftover because of how dry they were :( cupcakes were 1 star, but I added in an extra star for how kind the gentleman was in helping us.

Carrot cake

I ordered a carrot cake for my daughter's birthday. I loved it! The frosting wasn't sugary. I will definitely order here again for future birthdays! I'm so glad I found this place. Great service too!

Graduation chocolate cake

So happy to have stumbled upon this bakery. We ordered a cake for a graduation- showed Alex a photo for inspiration and he nailed the design! The cake was so rich in flavor, moist, and beautifully decorated! Definitely recommend.

Carrot Cake!~ Delicious

This place was a total surprise! I found Royal Bakery off of Yelp and went down in person to talk to Alex. He was very friendly and helpful and I asked him if he could make a 1/2 sheet Carrot Cake with pecans instead of walnuts (due to allergies). He said "No problem, we offer that because a lot of people have walnut allergies.) Fast forward to getting the cake.. Holy Cow! was this thing absolutely delicious. It was for my wife's surprise birthday party. We had our family over and everyone said it's some of the best carrot cake they've ever had; I couldn't agree more. We'll definitely be coming back here again! Excellent work. PS. Don't let the picture fool you, this 1/2 sheet cake was huge! and it was roughly 4" inches high. Delicious!~

a birthday cake

I needed 2 birthday cakes for a party I was going to in Santa Maria, CA... and I live in San Jose, Ca. I couldn't find a bakery I like in Santa Maria, so next best thing is find a bakery half way ... in Salinas. I found Royal Deli & Bakery online and gave them a call... 1 week before my party. I spoke with Alex, explained what I needed. He said to text him what I wanted and with a couple of pics. I called the next day and they confirmed they they would be able to make two custom cakes by the next Saturday ... amazing! I called the day before pickup, I was told they would be ready. When I arrived, I was greeted and welcomed by the friendly young man in the front and told him I was here to pick up my cakes. I was nervous and excited - hoping they came out the way I wanted them too ... a big ask for ordering custom cakes over the phone. As soon as I saw the cakes... I was floored. They did an AMAZING job! I couldn't of asked for more perfect cakes!! And not only did they look AWESOME, they tasted fantastic! Everyone loved them at the party! Thank you Royal Deli & Bakery - you guys are AWESOME!

I forgot to leave a review after receiving my daughters birthday cake. It was 2 weeks before her party & I had tried a different cake shop in the area to do the Pokémon cake I was requesting but said they couldn't do it because apparently they don't use fondant. So then I was searching google for nearby cake shops & came across the Royal Bakery. The cake came out amazing & we all fell in love! I showed a picture of what I had wanted, he was honest & gave suggestions about the cake: using fondant vs frosting of the cake I was requesting. He knows what he's doing when it comes to his work & I really appreciated his kindness & effort to ensuring the cake came out perfectly for my daughters birthday. Definitely coming back for future cakes 10/10 :)

Our wedding cake was perfect!  This cake not only looked wonderfull but tastes amazing!

Our wedding cake was three different flavors. We had red velvet, from scratch, for the lower and upper layers. We also went with chocolate mousse and a white cake with fresh strawberries! This cake went fast! Guest were coming back for seconds! Not only did it look great but it tasted amazing! Thank you Royal Deli!

Tiramisu was delicious.

Tiramisu was a hit for my brother and sisters birthday! Will definitely be buying again!

Love their sandwiches the supercharger is my favorite but they have other great sandwiches also and…read morethe cookies can't forget the cookies

8/10 I ordered the…read moreSupercharger and the Belair, and overall both sandwiches were solid, filling and generously packed. Starting with the Supercharger, this was easily the standout of the two. It's loaded with roast beef, bacon, turkey, ham, salami, pepperoncini, tomatoes, red onions, gouda cheese, and chipotle aioli on a ciabatta roll. They definitely don't skimp on the meat, which makes it super satisfying. The combination of the soft ciabatta and cheese worked really well together and balanced out the heaviness of the meats. My only complaint is that it could've used a bit more sauce, something like extra mustard or mayo would've taken it to the next level. Still, a strong 8.5/10. The Belair was decent but didn't quite hit the same level. It came with turkey breast, bacon, gouda cheese, spring mix, tomatoes, red onions, pepperoncini, and chipotle aioli on fresh sliced sourdough. Ours actually came with American cheese instead of gouda, which slightly changed the flavor profile. It was a good sandwich overall, but noticeably drier, especially with the sourdough, so it definitely needed more sauce to bring everything together. I'd give it a 7.2/10. Service was fast and efficient, which I appreciated. The ambiance stood out too, it has a cool retro gas station vibe that gives the place some personality and makes it feel unique. Staff was friendly, and the overall experience was smooth.

Every time we drive home from Monterey, I always see the big red Yelp sign that reads best BBQ…read more That sign did its' job and it got me intrigued and grabbed my attention. We finally got the chance to check it out. We arrived on a Saturday afternoon for lunch. The Prunedale Market is located along side the highway 101 freeway in the small town of Prunedale. It just takes a few long right turns to get there. Parking is easy and accessible out in the front parking lot. From the front, the market does not look like a popular BBQ spot. It looks like a simple small market store to grab quick snacks and drinks. Once inside there is a BBQ and deli section to your right. A small dining area is to your left. The decor is old fashioned and quaint. The 2 gentlemen greet you with friendly hospitality. We ordered the Tri tip sandwich, half slab of ribs which includes 2 potatoes and a cup of corn chowder. The pit master/owner Martin, who use to work for Original Joe's, was kind enough to also include a quarter chicken leg, a sausage, and extra ribs. It was so much food for our party of 3. Everything was delicious and hearty. The Tri tip sandwich was scrumptious with the flaming Fritos adding a nice crunchy texture and kick with every bite. The ribs were juicy and smokey. Potatoes complemented very well with the rest of the meat and chicken. Corn chowder was so tasty and creamy. I did not know corn chowder was that good. Overall we enjoyed our experience at the Prunedale Market. The staff were super nice and accommodating. They even offered for our son to grab some free ice cream to go. We politely declined. The prices were very reasonable. All that food fed us for the next 2 days. Lol. We hope to be back when we are in the area with other friends and family.

Now this place is a bit difficult to find, and they only take cash, but DAMN! What a find! And Martin, the owner, amazing. Had the tritip and he gave me sausage sampler, delicious!

We stopped by Eric's Deli for lunch and had a great experience! I ordered the tuna sandwich, and my…read moreson got the Caesar salad wrap. My tuna sandwich was absolutely delicious. It had a sweet mustard that took the sandwich to another level, and I loved that it came with sprouts. We also got a tasty pickle and piece of an orange on the side. My son really enjoyed his Caesar salad wrap. He said the wrap itself was incredibly soft, the croutons were crunchy, and the chicken was warm, tender, and flavorful. The Caesar dressing was spot on with just the right amount. He usually adds extra dressing to Caesar wraps, but this one didn't need a thing. The service was excellent. We originally asked about the Caesar salad wraps since we didn't see it on the menu, and the cashier kindly let us know they still make it, which was a pleasant surprise. Our food came out quickly, everyone was friendly, and the restaurant was very clean. Overall, we had a wonderful lunch and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend if you are looking for fresh, delicious sandwiches and great customer service.

Second order in a row that they have ruined takeout/delivery…read more They use Door Dash but when there is a problem, such as today when the deliverer left out a sandwich that I was charged for, Door Dash can't help if they wanted to because it's on a different system. The deli refuses to take responsibility. Second time. Avoid delivery until they fix it unless you really trust that it will be done right. For me, they messed up the past two times. I also question why they don't have a manager on site on a holiday who could help.
