Had the brisket sandwich on Dutch crunch. Was one of the best sandwiches I've had in a while. The owner was super cool cares about the community too.

Good spot for sandwiches and hot plates. The folks behind the counter run a tight ship, yet are heavy with the sarcasm, which I appreciate.

If there's a better sandwich spot in Oakland, I haven't found it yet. Everything is good. Everything.

First of all, Ann at the counter is just a lovely person to be greeted by. It was a pleasure and she was warm and welcoming from start to finish.Okay, I ordered The Pastrami to go. My thoughts, being a first timer, were to go with a classic. Something that shouldnt be made wrong in any sandwich shop. They didnt disappoint.It was everything I expected in a pastrami with one caveat: I had it on Dutch Crunch bread.(first time having it on that kind of bread)They had a bunch of other options, not just pastrami. If youre in the mood for a good sandwich in The East Bay, head to Oakland and hit up Lunch Box.

When I walked it, I received such a warm welcome. They have soooo many options to choose from that it took me a minute to decide. The gentleman at the register was kind and patient… and made fantastic suggestion about adding the garlic spread. I ordered the hot pastrami sandwich on Dutch crunch, and it really hit the spot. My total came to just under $15, and it was totally worth it. My wait wasn’t long at all— I had ~4 people in the queue ahead of me— he quote me 7 minutes and I think it took 5. I definitely plan to go back and would absolutely recommend this sandwich spot to a friend.

I've been coming here for lunch for years. I love that the sandwiches and wraps are high quality, but also that it's a family business run by great people who are committed to Oakland and their staff. And they remember your name after a few visits and treat you like you're valued.

Sandwich was small and barely any meat. I had the Hot pastrami on Dutch .The little meat I got was overcooked and chewy. I won’t be

Disgusting. A slathering of mayo does not belong on an eggplant sandwich. Who would even think to ask for no mayo as no one in their right mind would add it. Their menu should explicitly state what they put on a sandwich. Mayo was not mentioned.Vegetarian options: Watch out for mayo not listed on the menu description if you're vegan.

Ma and Pop sandwich shop with delicious sandwiches. Went there for lunch with my coworkers and everyone had wonderful things to say about their food. Will definitely come back again!
