Christi’s Cravings

This was my 2^nd time at Cristi’s Cravings and it’s a great place to have lunch if you’re in the mood for a regular home made sandwich. I ordered turkey on squaw bread with pepper jack cheese, avocado and bacon. There’s a good selection of hot and cold sandwiches, wraps, and salads. She had a good selection of chips and also has fresh baked pastries (cookies, brownies and lemon bars). On my first visit I paid $ 9 for a turkey sandwich with avocado and a bag of chips. This visit I paid $ 12 for my sandwich w/​bacon + avocado, a bag of chips, a cookie and a brownie. I did not purchase a drink but she does have fresh iced tea and lemonade as well as a few other drink selections.

Good fresh sandwiches made to order. As it’s a popular lunch spot it can get busy during the lunch rush. If I come around 1:00 I can generally avoid the line. Friendly service, clean and air conditioned.

Great little find for anyone working in corona. Only reason it’s getting four stars is because there is only one person behind the counter who takes your order then makes it before moving on to the next customer. She moves fast and is extremely nice but definitely isn’t a place for someone who has 30 minute lunch break or is in a hurry. Fortunately I have an hour and patience so I didn’t mind the 10 minute wait. I had the turkey sandwich which was a perfect lunch potion and under $ 5, add $ 0.40 for cheese, $ 1 for avocado and $ 2 for bacon. They have numerous sandwiches and salads to choose from. It has 6 tables inside and 2 outside. AC is powerful so it’s refreshing to eat in a cool place during summer weather. They recycle too :) just ask

Love this place! The owner is really nice and about as patient as they come (disclaimer: I can sometimes spend way too long trying to figure out what it is that I want whenever I come here… oops). These are pretty much the same sandwiches you could make at home… if your home was fully stocked with all the things you wanted and had basically every option you could think of. The price is good and she really piles the stuff on there so you’re definitely getting a «man-​wish» here. The ingredients are fresh and I rarely find that she ever runs out of anything. The only downside is that this place is really small so if you are going at lunch time you can expect it to have a bit of a line, but she’s quick and gets everyone taken care of. I still can’t figure out how she does that all by herself, but she seems to be doing something right!

This place is awful! Walked over during my lunch brake to get a sandwich. When I walked in there was customers eating however no one behind the counter. Finally heard a women talking on the phone behind the counter. She came to the counter and didn’t even acknowledge me. I stood there for about 3 minutes to see if she would end her call to help me or not. She failed miserably and continued talking on her phone. I turned to walk out and heard her tell her caller to hold on but didn’t call out for me to return. I work locally and will tell everyone I know to never eat or waste money is this craphole!!!

This place was HORRIBLE ! Went for lunch today for the first time and I regretted it !! First of all I stood there waiting for assistance … When I was finally helped the lady still hadn’t finished a call she was on so she had the cell phone in one hand and made my sandwich with the other. I never saw her put gloves or anything on … The tomatoes seemed old and the lettuce frozen … The turkey sandwich (which is what I ordered) was price marked $ 4.50. I added a bag of chips and ended up with a $ 7 bill !!! I couldn’t even eat this thing ! The bread was sliced Orowheat bread, the kind you purchase at the grocery store. I left there angry that I choose not to leave the sandwich and refuse to pay for this nonsense !!! VERY DISAPPOINTED … I’m very surprised she has an A rating. The place was disorganized and dirty !!!

Really neat place! The owner is really sweet and the sandwiches are really good!

Okay, So I have to say I Love Christi’s Cravings and Alice (the owner) is AWESOME! I’ve been going to her sandwich shop on occasion for 4 years now (depending if I am on Low Carb diet that week or not). My company has had Christi’s cater a number of events, picnics, etc. so I decided to try them out for my outdoor Wedding to be held at my home.
Alice came and did a walk-​thru a week prior to the event to make sure she had all the area, plug ins, etc. that she might require, which put me at ease. March 17, 2012 was my wedding. We basically got married in a Hurricane, the weather was relentless, cold, windy, wet. To protect our guests, everything had to be changed at the last minute, including putting sides on the huge outdoor canopy we had rented.
Alice and her team took it all in stride, there were professional, calm, collected and always had a smile on their faces. They set up the food & beverages inside, Staged my wedding cake beautifully, they helped transform the ceremony set up to a reception set up which included assembling the tables, dressing them and placing centerpieces, etc. in less than 20 minutes. They saved my event and I cannot thank them enough. Their customer service, professionalism, compassion and attention to detail is First Class and the food was terrific! (PS, my guests also commented on how wonderful Alice and her team were and how great the food was, so there is an additonal 111 Likes! :-))
THANKS ALICE!!!

I love this place. I mean sure, you could technically make this sandwich at home but it won’t be as fresh. I believe almost everything there is made from scratch including the tuna salad and the egg salad. Plus she has freshly baked goods.
The price is not bad either. I got two sandwiches, one lemon bar, and a vitamin bar for less than $ 10. The sandwiches are big too. I could only eat one of them, even though the other one looked super good. I’ll just eat that one tomorrow. A cheese sandwich which is two slices of bread, cheese, mayo, pickles, peperoncinis, tomato, lettuce, onion, and bell peppers is around $ 3. That’s a lot of stuff!
I love it.

Ok, so my experience at Christi’s Cravings was not as positive as the previous post. After weeks of wanting to try this place (a co-​worker heard about it through a friend), I finally got a chance to get away from the office and actually go out to lunch. Boy was I disappointed! I ordered a Turkey Avocado sandwich on wheat bread and to be honest, I could have made a better sandwich at home. I first noticed how small the sandwich looked when she handed it to me, nicely wrapped. Once I actually opened it up, I noticed that the bread looked like the typical loaf bread you buy at your local grocery store, the sandwich was thin despite the fact that the sandwich also came with lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, pepperoncinis and mustard – no joke, the sandwich seemed thinner than a deck of cards! I was very surprised, seeing as just the sandwich and a soda cost me almost $ 8.00! There wasn’t even any cheese in it. Also, the mustard was not regular mustard, it was actually Dijon mustard, which I do not like and the lady who prepared it did not mention it nor give me a choice. One positive thing though is that the lady who was there (Christi perhaps?) was very friendly and chatty. But that’s not enough to make me go back. I mean, sure this food is «home made», but I suggest you save your money and make it at your own home.
