    Stopped by The Palm deli recently and had a great experience. The food was exactly what you'd hope for from a local deli What really stood out, though, was the service. Cashier Barbara was incredibly nice -- welcoming, patient, and just had a great attitude overall. It made the whole visit feel more personal and enjoyable. You can tell they care about their customers. Definitely planning to come back. Places like this remind you why supporting local spots is worth it!

    The breakfast burritos are what you want to get here. $10 in Apr '23 gets you a good size burrito and even includes avocado. Sandwiches are decent here but the value is less. You can choose off the menu or make your own burrito or sandwich. There is seating inside and out. It also has a small selection of wines and beer with some snacks as well. They also have a ready made section too. What's nice is it seems they incorporate local produce as well. The eggs are from Glaum which is great.

    WOW. I can't believe I live so close to this treasure and it took me this long to try Palm Deli. I guess it's true what they say: good things come to those who wait! My expectations were low. I figured this is just a cafe with sandwiches and pasta but it is so much more than that. Like, damn this place has some good good sandwiches. Ericka's favorite was fantastic. It is a flat bread panini sandwich with turkey, pesto mayo, havarti, spinach, tomato, onion, and pepperoncinis! Very tasty! I kept thinking about it for hours after eating it. Would get again! We also got prime time at the Palm which has roast beef, cheddar, and sauteed sweet onions. Totes forgot to ask for horseradish sauce but we had some at home so it's all good. There is plenty of outdoor seating, vegetarian and gluten free options, ready made foods, and a ton of shelbes with snacks. Fyi they do not sell fries. I stood at the wrong area for probably 5 minutes or more before realizing that the area to pay is by the front door. There was nobody behind the counter or anyone waiting so I didn't think anything of it/ended up in the back of a long line. I was confused bc some ppl were getting their food and drinks from the display counter so I figured I'd pay after getting my food? Anyway, super cute little plaza with cottage style buildings and great food at Palm Deli! Will be returning!

    Since the change of ownership the quality of food and customer service have gone down hill significantly with an increase in price. Simply put, it's just not good. I would recommend you go someplace (any place) else, like The Farm. I grew up coming here every day after school, but everything that made this place special is now gone. Don't waste your time.

    Driving home from Manresa, we decided to grab lunch at this deli since it was nearby. Wasn't expecting much. Nothing on the menu was jumping out at me, so we settled for the following after asking the cashier for his recs: Grilled cheese: 4/5 oooey gooey thick melted cheese! Sooo good! Kids gobbled this down. Tri tip special: 5/5 wow packed with so much flavor! This was delicious! Ericka's favorite: 5/5 Ericka sure knows what a good sandwich tastes like. This sandwich looks semi healthy but totally hit the spot. So happy we found this deli. Will definitely be stopping by again when we are in the area. It's right off the fwy. There is a super cool tank right near the entrance door with pretty fish. We got our food and ate outside on the tables near the parking lot.

    Stopped in today to check the place out since I usually DoorDash my Açaí Bowls. They have SO MANY SANDWICH OPTIONS and i could tell by the amount of customers they had, this is a really popular deli! They seemed a little short staffed but I totally get it because just like them, most businesses are experiencing the same. The young crew they had working were great: very professional, attentive and on it. It took a while to get my order but was definitely worth the wait and the guys let me know it would be a little while. They were working their butts off back there!! If you haven't tried their açaí bowl, you should. They're fresh and filling with generous ingredients! The avo toast is a great choice too!

    Eggs burnt Coffee creamer spoiled  Bacon raw... all fat  Great Breakfast, long time customer  Bye bye

    Used to be my go too Breakfast place until new ownership took over, now cheapest ingredients and inexperienced cooks. Bacon was 100% fat ! Called to talk with owner about my terrible breakfast experience (of course he wasn't in), politely asked him to call me back (zero response) after three days. My new favorite view of Palm Deli is now in my rear view mirror

I had a pastrami sandwich there once before and it was pretty good, so figured this would do. Ordered the burger combo with Lentil soup. Asked for my burger medium and when it came out it was well past that and I'm pretty sure it was a frozen patty. I have frozen patties I cook at home that are great, so guessing it just wasn't very good quality to begin with. The lentil soup was flavorless and I only had a few bites before tossing out. Seasoning, a ham hock, and some aromatics would do a lot for this soup. Left feeling very disappointed as there are a bunch of more satisfying options in the area and I chose the wrong one. As I was sitting in traffic, my stomach started feeling like I ate some broken glass or something. Obviously there wasn't broken glass in the burger, just a fitting analogy. I had stomach pains for the next few hours. This is all I had eaten in like 10 hours, so I'm positive it was the burger. The woman at the counter was friendly and the place was pretty clean. I've got a pretty iron gut and it takes a lot to make it turn. Don't think I will be going back.

I think you can make the wrong choice on your 1st/2nd/3rd visit depending on your taste, but I also think you should come back and you'll absolutely find something that 100% tickles your pickle. I've tried most of their hot sandwiches: - Noni's Pesto Chicken: this is one of my favorite sandwiches of all time. It's not very complex but for some reason the combination of flavors just is *chefs kiss*. 5* for this alone, don't fight me - Surf City Philly: can be surprisingly spicy, heavy but SO good. This is my third favorite. - Chicken Cowabunga: not that great, would skip, but I also have a whole website on fried chicken sandwich rankings so I'm picky - Vulcan Mind Melt: sounds so good on paper but it's just heavy. I would skip - Crispy Cod Wrap: I've had a bite or two of this and I thought it was pretty good but not that memorable - Pork Belly Banh Mi: this was good, and I don't usually like pork belly - Chipotle Chicken Club: also kinda heavy but I really enjoyed this! This is my second favorite. - Cubano: not particularly memorable Not a sandwich but Beer Barnacles: ugh I enjoyed this more often than I should have, sorry not sorry. 5*
