    Egg, Bacon Sandwich with Hash Brown
    Rob K.

    My wife found this Cafe during a recent visit to San Francisco. Sutter St. Cafe was a block or so from our hotel. Cafe is in the bottom of an office building and is a hidden gem. Lady running the cafe is very friendly and efficient. My wife and I received our breakfast sandwiches very quickly and was very reasonable price wise. If you need a quick breakfast, it's a quality visit.

    If you're anywhere near Union Square, do yourself a favor and stop by Sutter St. Cafe inside 450 Sutter! The moment you walk into the building, the warm, inviting aroma of toasted bagels fills the air, setting the tone for a fantastic breakfast or lunch experience. They have an impressive variety of daily specials and a great selection of breakfast and lunch options. We arrived early and were treated to Joe's signature hospitality--get there before 11 AM, and he'll even toss in a hash brown patty! It's those little touches that make this place stand out. The coffee, tea, and cold beverages are all excellent, perfect for pairing with whatever delicious meal you choose. Joe and his team truly make this place special. Their customer service is top-notch--always serving with a smile and a friendly chat that makes you feel like a regular, even if it's your first visit. The seating area is on the smaller side, but there are a few eat-in tables if you want to stay. We opted to take our order to go, which worked out perfectly. Whether you're grabbing a quick bite before work or looking for a solid breakfast or lunch in the city, Sutter St. Cafe is a must-visit. We'll definitely be back! --And as an added bonus--you can see one of the last operating public pay phones just outside the front door door!

    The photos on the walls are neat too

    Food was excellent and well prepared! The service was excellent, the gentleman was really kind & welcoming to my family and I. Best deli spot I found here next to my hotel. This was a cute shop as my wife says :) I recommend it if you want a bomb deli sandwich

    Pastrami salami combo sandwich, gluten free bread - AMAZING
    Jessica B.

    This was the only cafe in the area that I could find with gluten free bread which is what led me here. You enter through a parking garage on Sutter Street and follow the signs to a door which will lead you to a very small and cute cafe with a not so small menu. There were over a dozen sandwich options all which could be made with gluten free bread! They LOADED this sandwich with meat and sauce and that is truly my love language. I tried the pastrami salami combo sandwich and it was better than I expected. I wanted to go back the next day but sadly they are closed on the weekend. This place is perfect for all of your quick sandwich needs.

    super friendly service, the vibe is comforting! Almost reminds me of an nyc cafe... Got the Sutter street burrito, talk about full of bacon the way the burritos are done here are fire, the perfect amount of bacon burrito, like the bacon is the main ingredient in it and egg is on the top! The perfect way !!

    I've been coming to this building for doctors appt the last year and a half and today was my first time stopping for food. I'm so glad I did! It's a cute little cafe located on the first floor by the parking garage entrance. It's a little tight but perfect for a quick bite. The server was so friendly bummed I didn't get his name. The hash brown was cook to perfection- crispy and not soggy or oily. I got a regular coffee with half and half creamer and what I believe was the sutter st combo wrap. I added onion and chipotle mayo. Definitely hit the spot. Price was reasonable for the area. I would for sure come back and try one of their deli sandwiches. Come check them out if you are ever in the area. They also have some grab and go options like cheese and yogurts:)

In researching places near where we were staying, we learned about the Italian deli and shop. We were looking forward to stopping by to check out the store and grab lunch. The store itself is very cute and charming, full of so many items - fresh meats and cheeses, imported olive oils, pastas, desserts, wine, and liquor to name a few. There is an area where you can get coffee drinks and there is a deli area for ordering sandwiches, pizzas, specialty dishes, and salads. The variety of options is plentiful. I ordered an iced coffee beverage, which was great. My significant other and I ordered a sandwich to go, which we were splitting for a light lunch back at the hotel. The person helping at the counter was not very friendly or helpful with questions. We asked for our sandwich to be made on the Dutch Crunch bread, as we were looking forward to trying it. Unfortunately, when we got back to the hotel, it turned out that the sandwich was made on a regular ciabatta roll, which was not fresh. Additionally, the sandwich was mostly mixed greens. For the price, I expected more meat. With so many great food options in San Francisco, it is likely we won't stop by on future visits to the City.

So much I was worried the ratio would be off. Told a friend that I didn't think it would be good. It would just taste like meat. I was wrong. Coleslaw wasn't too creamy or too sweet. Just right. Only thing I would change is asking for more peppers, they were so good so bright. Waffle Fries were great waffle fries, but the Mick Sauce was beyond great. To me it was like the best tartar sauce I've ever had. Maybe better. I would probably get an extra Mick Sauce and use it on my Sandwich. Friend got the Bradly and gave it top marks. All three meat flavors came through, jalapeños had great flavor that added to the sandwich. It's not cheap, but it's damn good. Be prepared to wait in line. I arrived around 1:50 and ordered around 2:20. I'm sure there are busier times. 100 percent worth the wait. They played CAKE and the employees were fantastic.

I ordered the 49er and it just seemed like a greasy goopy mess. It felt like the bread congealed into a mushy paste due to all the dressing and wetness? Also my sandwich was 1000* even after walking back to my car and letting it cool with the wrapper off it was still way to hot to eat for a long while and burnt my mouth. Maybe they intentionally make them super hot to withstand long distance takeout deliveries... I dunno. Plus standing in a long line with a velvet rope baking in the sun, long wait, lack of parking, navigating skuzzy neighborhood to go there (literally saw a guy going #2 on the corner on my way out)... overall I wasn't that impressed with Deli Board compared to all the rave reviews I have heard over the years. SF lacks truly awesome sandwich places so I will give give this another shot and report back with updates, perhaps I hit it on an off day.

Three people working a tight space with three toaster ovens, and everything comes toasted by default. Their DNA is from pizza making, and it shows. The menu has around 40 sandwiches, so I asked the guy behind the counter for his two favorites and started there. The Godfather: Genoa and pepper salami, oven gold turkey, provolone, and garlic spread on Dutch crunch. Great texture, warm from the toaster, and the garlic spread ties it together. A San Francisco classic done right. The San Franpsycho: it normally comes with honey turkey, but they had rotisserie chicken on the spit so I swapped it in. Gouda, bacon, pesto, garlic spread, and remoulade. The pesto comes through right away and the chicken tastes like real rotisserie. Fair warning: it is messy. It drips. Do not eat this in the car. I could not find a clean way to eat it and ended up taking half home to finish. In their defense, I went rogue with the chicken order so that might have messed up the flow. If you're a sandwich person in SF, put this on the list. I'll be back soon.
