In San Diego for work and a coworker and I were looking for a quick but local place to have a bite to eat. We found this place and the experience could not have been better! I had the cheeseburger and it was fantastic(not to mention the fries)!! The service was great as well!

This place is tuck away about 50 yards down the street from C Level and Island Prime. They are opened for breakfast and lunch and make a variety of sandwiches and a couple of Hawaiian items as well. I ordered the Portuguese Sausage Breakfast Sandwich and let me tell you, that Portuguese sausage or Linguiça was fantastic. It had that nice skin that burst when I bit into it, and was packed with garlic, smokey pork, and red pepper flavor, not to mention it was juicy given the very good meat to fat ratio the sausage had. The sandwich was served on thick toasted rye bread which was very good, but what I really liked, in addition to the sausage, was the fluffy scrambled eggs. They were very well seasoned, scrambled, and came aggressively seasoned in a very good way. I asked for Provolone cheese because I thought it would go well with the sausage and it did. The meal came with a side of potatoes. They were well prepared, just a little over done, but well seasoned. They only gave me a few pieces, but that was okay because my focus was on that delicious sausage. They offer Virtuoso Coffee which was very good. Nice place to grab some grub before heading out for some sailing, if your stomach can handle it. Better yet, perhaps when the sailing has been completed.

Loved it. Unilocal gave me high expectations and our lunch lived up to it. Fresh sandwiches with the most wonderful homemade fries. Coming back tomorrow now too!

I really appreciate the guys that make sandwiches here, and the cash register lady was real nice too. I saw that the deal of the day was a pastrami sandwich, but they had run out… Upon seeing my disappointment, one of the employees got pastrami from a secret stash and made me a pastrami sandwich. Really appreciate it, and it was delicious. Came back and ate here 2 more times while I was working in the area.

Great place for lunch! My friend’s family has a yacht in the harbor right next to Island Deli and she says they always eat here when they visit. She loves their cheeseburger and claims it’s the best she’s ever had. The fries that come on the side are killer! I had the albacore tuna sandwich(no bacon) on sourdough and it was pretty good. A little too much pepper for me in the mix. I ultimately really enjoyed my lunch. It’s cool to see young people(early 20’s) turning out great lunch food.

Yummy sandwiches at a good price! Nice view if you eat outside(front or back). There’s also a big parking lot right next to it. Plus you get a free bag of chips with every sandwich. If I lived in San Diego I’d go back.

Nice little spot on the water. Not too many options for breakfast, but decent food.

What do you do when you’re stuck in the San Diego airport for a two hour layover and you’re STARVING? You take a cab to Island Deli, duh. My co-worker and I were headed to a conference in San Jose in early February and were starving. We didn’t want to eat anything in the airport and really wanted some fresh air and good food on the water in San Diego. I pulled up my trusty Unilocal!app and we were on our way to Island Deli. ALL of the other reviews tell it like it is: great food, great staff, great view. The weather was OUTOFTHISWORLDAMAZING(which I know Island Deli can’t control, but they have a patio full of tables and chairs with umbrellas to eat from and it made the weather that much more enjoyable)! My co-worker and I each had a cheeseburger and, I shit you not, the burger was out of this world! Legit one of the best burgers I’ve ever had. Head on over here. It’s ½ mile from the airport and absolutely worth the $ 8.

Yum. Sandwiches, tacos, fried rice and more. Get off the plane, into your rental car, and come straight here.

An awesome place for an affordable lunch with a relaxing view of the bay. Perfect sized portions that don’t encourage you to over eat as well. If you are staying at a local hotel along the bay it’s an easy walk and well worth a try. They also have outdoor seating available.

Great place. Stopped by for breakfast and had the veggie breakfast burrito. Was served piping hot and fresh ingredients. Great flavor. Friendly staff and a great place to sit outside and admired the gorgeous view. Would defiantly come back again.

Ate here with my Wife, my 12 year old Daughter on our trip to San Diego. It was really really good. The staff was exceptional and amazingly kind. I ordered a Hotel California Burger, my Daughter ordered the Fish & Chips, and my Wife ordered the BLT. All of us enjoyed our food and the service. We all agreed we would come back here again and again even with the limited menu. Perfect deli selection and would recommend folks to pay this place a visit if you stay at one of the hotels nearby.

Good quality ingredients. Very impressed with the house chips. We had the Cali chicken and the Baja chicken sandwichs. Both were great, perfectly cooked chicken breasts… crisp bacon on the cali and the baja was spicy. Quiet outside with a nice view for lunch.

I ordered the ham melt sandwich and it came with a side of coleslaw. Coleslaw it seems is something that many places mess up really easily. It’s either watery or just way too strong in flavor. This one was just right. The sandwich was tasty. You can tell the ingredients were fresh & good quality. The cheese was melted nicely but wasn’t all over the place. For $ 10, this was a good value for lunch.

After several visits, this place has never let us down for a quick Hawaiian-style lunch. There are good, cheap lunch plates here and they’re made pretty quickly. We also like the quaint patio seating which always seems to throw in a sweet island breeze on the water. This is such a great spot to get away for lunch, yet it’s so close to Harbor Drive. Aside from the chicken plates, we’ve also had the sandwiches, and again I’ve been heavy on the chicken. The sammies are fresh and bulky(just how I like ‘em) but there’s always that one drawback to the avocado-based sandwich … it tends to slide apart because of the awesomeness of the avocado. Slippery goodness(that’s what she said).

The Kahlua Pork is absolutely delicious! The pork is very well flavored and extremely tender. I got it without the bun and did not miss it at all. The cole slaw is pretty good too– not drowned in mayo. The fries look better than they are, but are good. Hubs got the French Dip. He liked it, but my pork was much better. There isn’t much room to sit and enjoy– more of a grab and go type of place. Service is quick though and the prices are reasonable.

When I am working on the boats I eat here occasionally on my lunch break. The food here is super fresh! I took my wife here for the first time. She loved it. The bacon avocado burger is so good. Make sure you try the fries. Thanks!
