BEST SANDWICH SHOP! I’ve been to lots of restaurants in SD, LA, OC, Vegas and more and this is BY FAR my favorite. THE BREAD IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! They make it here and it’s so fresh and delicious. Today I got the Garlic Cheese bread for a Giddy Up sandwich and it’s SO GOOD! Also make sure to try the new mushroom & brie soup, it’s so tasty! Oh and you get a free cookie with your sandwich! So great 10/10

Their Sandwiches are the best in San Diego... Everything about it taste so fresh. Pickles are amazing, mini cookies are definitely incredible and the tomato bisque have a great flavor

Can’t think of a more premium sandwich in San Diego! Been coming here for years and well worth the price. Ingredients are all high-quality and the full size sandwich is worth its weight and gold. I am a fan of the Dutch Crunch bread because of the crunchy texture it adds (features in photo, alongside the stallion and Rubicon Special. You also get a cookie with your sandwich! Both indoor and outdoor seating.

I had a fantastic experience at Rubicon Deli thanks to Jesús! He was incredibly welcoming, attentive, and made sure my order was just right. You can tell he takes pride in his work and genuinely cares about the customer experience. It’s rare to find that kind of service these days. Big thanks to Jesús — I’ll definitely be coming back!

Workers were very nice and friendly! This sandwich was one of the best I’ve ever had in my life. I’d buy this a thousand times over. The bread was my favorite part and it is so flavorful. Sandwich pictured is The Stallion on Pesto bread. We also had a Rich boy and it was just as good!

First time here today and customer service was great! Friendly and helpful. We got the Rich Boy, Super Mario, and All-Star! The Super Mario was my personal favorite! It had sooo much flavor and it was nice and warm! Can’t wait to try it again. Also loved the house chips and the delicious surprise chocolate chip to finish our delicious meal. Thank you guys for all of your hard work.
