17 Best Sandwich Shops near Montara

“I was very excited to find Gherkins Sandwich shop while on a week long trip to HMB. As a vegetarian we usually get stuck with the same repetitive sandwich options when going to delis, but I was ecstatic to see that most of their sandwich options could be made vegetarian by substituting the default protein with tofu.I got a number 19 - Cal Fire with tofu which had honey mustard sauce, avocado and cheese (I switched the pepper jack for swiss). My husband got a #20 - The Sheriff with tofu, which had a Frank's Red Hot sauce. I loved the whole gherkins on the sandwiches! The biggest drawback for us is that the sandwiches were very messy to eat. The tofu ended up being cubed, so the sandwiches started falling apart instantly. I think it would probably be better if the tofu was cut into slabs if possible. I also think some extra seasoning on the tofu would be great.The sauces on our sandwiches were also a little runny, which kind of added to the messy-ness.We had gotten chips but didn't end up eating them because we were so full after the sandwiches. Overall a good option for lunch, but I would have preferred if the sandwiches were a little easier to eat.“

“The best sandwiches in South San Francisco: Little Lucca! This place is usually packed with a line out the door, but we decided to shoot our shot since it was raining and hoped there wouldn't be a line and luckily it wasn't that long! Everything is made to order in front of you and you can add what you'd like. They have a garlic and hot pepper sauce which are sooo good and a must get. They definitely don't skimp on the add ins and both our sandwiches came out packed and HUGE! We were able to save and eat the other half for dinner haha It's a really nice place to grab a sandwich and maybe head over to the beach or somewhere nice to enjoy. We ended up taking it home and decided to toast it a bit and it was perfection. Next time you're in South San Francisco and looking for a sandwich, come check out Little Lucca! Everyone was so nice and patient even with a rush.“

“Crab Salad Sandwiches are my favorite and Darbys is solid! Hefty on the fillings and flavor is definitely top 3. On this particular visit I asked if the sandwich could be toasted and I was shown the crab melt sandwich as the option. Next time will maybe give that a try but not sure that’s exactly what I was looking for so I rolled with it as usual, everything on it except jalapeños.Parking: Parking is usually available on n the lot or even the street if they are busy.Kid-friendliness: They can do basic sandwichesWheelchair accessibility: Accessible and welcomed“

“Hello...I had the opportunity to stay overnight in San Bruno before heading to Austin, TX. My sister and I decided to walk to Roma Deli for our dinner. I probably was a pain to the gentleman taking my order...sorry...just very picky about my sandwiches. People...without a doubt, this sandwich was the BEST sandwich I have ever had in my life. All I can say is...YOU MUST GO THERE!!!!! SO worth it...thank you!!!!!“

“Amazing sandwich speakeasy! Literally never had anything I didn't like. From the tortas to the tuna melt... you won't be disappointed. ORDER ONLINE. Do not show up trying to get a sandwich, much as they would like to help its a small shop and they get busy...so do yourself a favor and order online... you'll be happy with it! (Don't miss the banana bread for a treat).“

“Absolutely fantastic! The sandwiches here are full of flavor and made with fresh ingredients. Luis greeted me at the register and is friendly and attentive, providing top-notch service. A hidden gem worth discovering. Highly recommended for anyone craving a delicious and satisfying meal!“

“Ordered the Raider sandwich, everything about it was delicious. The chicken was juicy, the produce was super fresh and the tomatoes were a rich red and super flavorful. The garlic sauce was soooo good. Service was great as well, and everyone was really friendly and kind. I was having a rough afternoon and having my lunch here turned my day around completely.“

“absolutely destroyed this sando. i even ordered it through doordash and it arrived to me well put together and still tasty. i heard though that the south city one puts more love into their sandos so ill have to give them a try. i would order again“

“Hidden amidst the corporate park at Gateway is a hidden gem known as Esposto's. Conveniently located in an easily accessible place for corporate workers and near lots of accessible parking makes for a great lunch spot during work hours.Many workers in my office come here for a quick lunch, and there's a reason that people come back so often. The prices are very worth the serving size, and the quality of food is always very fresh!There is inside and outside seating (inside has very nice ambience, and it's pretty quiet outside).My go-to is the Bacon Cheeseburger or the Wedgie Salad with Flank Steak. Their sandwiches are all very nice too!“

“Nice new deli in San Bruno - love the bread. They have tons of options or you can create your own - which I did. I have the roast beef with all the regular condiments except jalapeños or onions. They pack a lot of meat in those sandwiches. They have drinks and many types of chips. They will make your sandwich hot if you like as well. Very friendly customer service. The place is clean and well kept. Give this place a try and support your local delis!“

“We were nearby and decided to drop in for lunch. Place was pretty busy. Almost chaotic if you've never been there before. You tell them what you want and they'll just start asking the questions though. Not too hard to navigate but gotta be quick. There's not much room to stand around and stare at the menu (which is pretty expansive) so I ordered my favorite sandwich. A tuna sandwich! I got it on wheat with their jalepeno garlic sauce. I notice they didn't ask if I wanted cheese when I started eating it which kind of sucked, but the tuna is super tasty. Well seasoned and they really pack it on. It was huge. I enjoyed one whole half, but when I got to the second half that jalepeno spread was starting to be overpowering. I'd ask them to go light next time, but not bad at all. The side pasta salad was not as great but it came with the sandwich which was fine. They also have a nice salad bar I'd be down to try on my next trip!“

“By far the best sandwich spot in the area and maybe the Bay Area. As a person who's been working construction in this area for 4 years, I've tried a lot of places around here. The quality is unmatched and the woman working behind the counter is creating Heaven in a sando“

“After reading the rave reviews, we both had the philly cheese steak sandwich. Having lived in the Philadelphia area for years, this sandwich did not disappoint. The meat was tender, and the other ingredients (onions, green and red bell peppers, cheese, etc.) added to a great flavor. We will have to go back and try the other sandwiches and see if they are as worthy as the philly cheese steak sandwich.“

“Came by with a friend and we shared the French dip sandwich and a chicken problano soup. The sandwich was scrumptious! The soup has just the right amount of kick to it (I cannot tolerate too much heat) and so flavorful. The bread stays crunchy on the outside and fluffy inside. Easy parking and real chill atmosphere. Clean bathroom too!“

“Had a wide selection of different things for anyone's palate. The people behind the counter were lovely. The food was fresh and wrapped so well it stayed warm even after waiting for the shuttle for almost forty minutes. The man behind the counter was so welcoming and helped me find my way to the shuttle stop when I was beyond lost. Overall 100/10 service. If I ever come back to South San Francisco this will be on my list of stops.“

“The sandwiches are yummy. It’s just a pick up your food and go kind of place. The sandwiches do take a while to come out. Overall it’s a solid place to grab a massive sandwich.Vegetarian options: There is no protein option for vegetarians or vegans. They have one vegetable sandwich or you can build your own. The sandwich is delicious.“

“It was some new for a chance. I felt like walking into Quiznos nostalgia feels. The fact it was started in the Bay Area makes it feel like local. I love the cheesecake cause love having a sandwich with mushrooms in it. It was really busy in there since it was in the busiest part of south city. It's nice and chill but not busy on a weekday.“
