    Such nice & fast service. The sandwich was very tasty & i loved the vinaigrette on it! I wasn't sure about the cranberries but it added a really nice sweetness to it.

    Bbq chicken pizza is bomb!

    This deli is a gem in the middle of our little old town. I wouldn't call it a mere deli. More like a mini gourmet pizzeria plus sandwiches. And the coffee! OMGosh! It's the perfect eatery when visiting the farmers market across the street or shopping in town. My favorite pizza is the pear and Gouda with blue cheese and honey. Drool! But the other pizzas are equally enjoyable. The BBQ chicken is great too. The meatball sandwich is delicious. I enjoy trying everything just to be surprised by all of the flavor bombs.

    Best sandwich I've had to date since I moved to Temecula. The bun was absolutely amazing and the chicken salad was well put together. The staff were extremely friendly and I appreciate the tables out front!

    Sandwiches were delicious! I got the Whole Farm and loved it. Next time I think I'm going to try the Chicken Pesto, as my friend got that and it looked amazing as well. The sandwiches come with a pickle spear and cookie. They have delicious sweet treats, such as macarons, brownies and cookies. Service was good and the deli was clean. They also have indoor and outdoor seating, although limited.

    Reuben, subbed corn beef for pastrami

    I had an extremely good experience at Old Town Deli. From the moment I walked in, everything was top tier. I had a hard time choosing a sandwich because they all sounded amazing, but I went with the Reuben, sub corn beef for pastrami --and wow. Absolute 10/10, hands down the best Reuben I've ever had. The latte deserves its own shoutout too. It's genuinely in the conversation for the best latte I've ever had, which I don't say lightly. The owner, Lance, was incredibly hospitable and kind. He went above and beyond, even reaching out to a personal friend to help me source some high-quality meats and cheeses I originally came in looking for. That level of care and customer service is rare these days. Overall, this place is a must-visit. Do yourself a favor--grab a coffee, order a sandwich, and transcend into paradise after the first bite. I'll definitely be back.

    I came here to try their pizza and sandwiches. I got their Portobello mushroom pizza ($13.75), The Mar ($14.25), and Italian ($15.35). The Mar looked burnt but the bread was fine, it held up well and had a nice chew. The Mar is a tuna sandwich with capers, celery, white onions, lettuce, Havarti cheese, chopped cucumbers and tomatoes. It's a bit dry even with the garlic aioli but the tuna was well seasoned. The Italian came with sopressata, mortadella, genoa salami, provolone cheese, olive tapenade, tomatoes, onions, and roasted garlic and red pepper aioli. The sandwich had plenty of filling and was not drowning in sauce and the olive tapenade was not overpowering the other flavors. The mushroom pizza is a small size, good for 2-3 people. Very strong smell of goat cheese and garlic oil. It was filled with portobello, mushrooms, red onions, provolone, and garlic honey drizzled on top. The crust was thick and tasted plain. They have a stamp card, the staff is nice. There's a few tables inside. They have a small parking lot.

    Delicious chicken pesto

    First time here. We split the chicken pesto sandwich. Delicious sandwich, perfect combo of flavors. Cute welcoming place. Will come back for sure!

    Lance and GiGi are kind and welcoming to every customer. Their food is healthy and tasty . Those who try to eat heathy know how rare that is lol FYI Try the Steer ( Cold Sandwich) Also great as a hot sandwich. And the Steer pizza is my favorite pizza..... ever. Fa eva,eva?? Fa eva , eva?LOL

    Reuben

    Wow, a totally decent sandwich at this small but mighty deli off 6th St. Easy to park but if full, park in the lot on north side of 6th street. Very short walk to the Deli. Menu has it all for any palette - check it out here on Yelp. I went straight for the Reuben which has their house made sauerkraut and house made Russian dressing. That made my decision right then and there, and it proved to make one great Reuben! Marbled rye was toasted perfectly. Meat was thinly sliced and very tender with ample kraut which totally makes this a stand out sandwich. The Russian Dressing adds just the right kick of horseradish and spice - if you can't handle the spice, just asked for it on the side but for God's sake don't skip it. It will be difficult to order a different sandwich with one this good! Service was delightful, warm and friendly. I'll be back.

    Rueben sandwich.  So fresh!

    Hidden sandwich gem in Temecula! Got the got y Reuben sandwich it was sooo good! Husband and I shared it and it was enough! They were so nice that they split it for us. We both got a real good crunchy pickle and a fresh delicious cookie!!! Cute little deli! I must to get your sandwich before heading to the wineries!

    Italian sub

    Love the energy at Old Town Deli! Gigi handles the front with such a personal touch while her husband holds down the kitchen with some of the best food around. It's rare to find a place this clean and well-run where the owners are so hands-on. If you're looking for a great sandwich, this is the spot. Highly recommend

    Was looking for some good sandwiches on our way home to San Diego from Palm Springs and found this…read moreplace! My husband and I both wanted the salmon BLTA but they were out. The staff member taking orders recommended to me the smoked turkey BLTA so I got that while my husband got the Cuban sandwich. I got garlic fries with mine and he got the potato salad. Food came out pretty quick and it was SO delicious! My husband inhaled his Cuban. There was so much meat and flavor in both our sandwiches and we were raving and glad we stopped here and can't wait to come back for more! The garlic fries and potato salad were amazing as well. Ate it all and enjoyed my red sangria too. Was also so wonderful that our dog was allowed to sit inside with us considering the busy and hot day it was.

No real service here since you walk up to the counter, order, get a number, and they bring out your food. We ordered cuban sandwich, carne asada fries, and the Blue burger. Everything here was pretty good. The garlic fries came with fresh garlic. The cuban sandwich had tons of flavors. The fried potato chips seemed like they just opened a bag of chips and tossed it on lol but still good. The burger was juicy and I loved the jam on it. It complimented the bleu cheese very well. I was so surprised the carne asada fries were actually good as well. It did need some more guac though. When I went to ask, they said it's not actual guac and just smashed avocados. They charged me $2.50 for a tiny container when they could've just gave it to me or either give me a bigger serving for $2.50!

    Stopped by after a friend's recommendation. Once you walk in, you're met with the menu (handheld…read moreand posted on the wall) and the counter to order. Further in, there's bar seating and a couple tables. Most of the tables are outside in their patio. The space has a very modern feel with a wine and draft beer list along with coffee bar options. On a Friday lunch rush (11:30am), there were quite a bit of people already sitting and eating. I ordered the hatch chile honey chicken sandwich ($16.32 after tax). Holy smokes, it was delicious! The baked pretzel bun was unlike any I've had before. Buttery and pillowy on the inside and a crisp exterior. The chicken was perfectly cooked and paired well with the chili honey, which was perfectly balanced without being too sweet or too spicy. The grilled onions added extra sweetness and richness that contrasted nicely with the fresh tomato, avocado, and lettuce. Together, it made the perfect sandwich! Definitely a spot worth checking out. The food tasted high quality, and I'll absolutely stop by again when I'm back in town.

    Goat & Vine (Satellite Café) - Morning Bun Review…read more Goat & Vine continues to expand its footprint beyond its flagship The Goat and Vine location, and this newer café concept clearly aims to deliver a more elevated, bespoke pastry experience. From a presentation standpoint, it succeeds. The space is large, visually polished, and immediately inviting--everything you'd expect from a brand building on a strong local reputation. The morning bun itself is visually stunning. Well-shaped, evenly baked, and glossy with promise--it looks like a 5 before the first bite. But execution tells a different story. A proper morning bun should channel the DNA of a croissant: light, airy, delicately layered, with just enough exterior resistance to give way under minimal pressure. This one missed that mark. The outer ring was noticeably tough--requiring more force than expected, even with a knife. In truth, a well-executed morning bun should yield easily with the edge of a fork, not demand effort to cut through. Flavor delivery was equally uneven. The cinnamon--presumably a core element--was very mild, almost hesitant. A morning bun doesn't need to be a cinnamon roll, but it should introduce that warmth immediately, within the first bite. Here, it lagged. More notably, the orange essence appeared only at the very center, creating a disconnect in the experience. Flavor should be intentional and consistent. If orange is part of the profile, it should be present throughout--not hidden as a surprise note at the core. The same applies to any premium pastry: flavors should announce themselves clearly and early, drawing you into the experience, not making you search for them. To their credit, the internal structure showed glimpses of what could be--a buttery, layered crumb that hinted at proper technique. But the balance between texture and flavor never fully came together. This is a case where strong presentation and solid fundamentals elevate expectations, but the final execution doesn't quite deliver on them. Final Rating: 3.5 / 5 A beautiful pastry with promising structure, but held back by toughness and inconsistent flavor distribution. With refinement--particularly in texture and flavor clarity--this could easily become a standout offering.
