ive been living by this Deli sense i was born, my father started taking me here when i was about 8, i remember back then they used to have Calzones and id get that for a few years till it got removed, after those stopped i started ordering the subs. the sandwiches are great! I've been going here for about 24 years a sub, soda, and some chips for lunch, the store part would always have the radio playing thru the store speakers always catchy tunes playing in there most of the time (in my opinion of course) the AC also helps in the heat, always a good time stopping in :)

I've been going to this store periodically over the last year. I'm a traveling nurse and I first started coming here because it is close to the hotel where I was staying. I always read Yelp reviews for businesses I patronize just to be safe and find out if there will be potential problems. I read all the reviews for this business and was surprised to read the negative comments. Over time and many subsequent visits I found that the some of the reviews were old and couldn't be relied upon to reflect the current state of the business. And I came to believe that people who wrote those older comments and the more recent ones were likely angry hypercritical types that enjoy trashing a business for whatever personal reasons they might have. My own experiences were consistently positive over the last 12 months and now that I'm leaving to another job location I wanted to do another review to summarize my experiences here. First, this is a convenience store, not unlike 7-11 which sustains itself on liquor and cigarette sales, so if you have a problem with that you probably shouldn't come here. It's never going to score high for "ambiance" and it's not really a family store though it is not unfriendly to families as far as I can tell. This appears to be a family run business and run by what has appeared to me as a hard working family. Second, unlike 7-11 and other chain stores this store has a personality and they seem to care about the appearance of the store and about keeping things stocked and organized properly. The drinks I bought, mostly Fanta Strawberry, Gingerale, and sparkling water were always cold which tells me they regularly stick their refrigerated drinks. Also they keep a really nice variety of drinks including sparkling water, still water, vitamin water, and a pretty wide variety of name brand sodas (both diet and regular). I never bought any alcohol containing products but that stock also appeared to offer a nice set of options. The takeaway here is that this isn't your local, sleazy cheap beer and tobacco stores with unseemly characters hanging out. Third, their deli became my "go to" place for sandwiches. They always have a wide variety of quality deli meats and pre-cooked meals with daily specials too. The sandwiches are far superior to Subway or 7-11. Their meats, nice selection of fresh breads, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, etc. we're always fresh and they will make the sandwich however you like it. I never once had any issues with the quality of their food. They also always have potato salads, chicken salad, breakfast burritos, and more, again, always fresh and tasty. They also have a selection of ice creams, frozen foods, even a small selection of fruits and vegetables. Fourth, the people who work the store actually seem concerned about satisfying their customers. Every time I went here I was treated respectfully and given service immediately. And I mean service with a smile. These folks aren't low wage, negligent employees you sometimes meet in chain convenience stores. These people are old fashioned merchants who understand customer service and take pride in their work. I also observed that they appear to have nice relationships with what I assumed were regular customers. I never saw anyone ignored or mistreated during any of my visits. (of course their prices are higher as in any convenience store but I would expect people to know that). Fifth, they have a small but quite adequate parking lot and it's easy to get right back on the road once you've made your purchases. Easy in, easy out. No hassles. My advice would be to ignore the bad reviews or at least put them in perspective. This is the kind of old fashioned local shops that I wish every neighborhood had. We customers need to support local businesses like this one so they will continue to serve the community and not get replaced by one of those impersonal chain stores. Let me say a sincere thanks to these merchants. They made my stay here in Santa Rosa a better experience. Keep up the good work and I wish you continued success.

THIS IS MY SANDWICH SPOT!! I've been getting sandwiches from this deli for at least 15 yrs! I love the staff they are always friendly and helpful! They always have a smile on their faces & are ready to make whatever it is that you want!

The ownership of this meat & deli convenience store are over the top nice. They are always going above and beyond to help the Sonoma County community. When given a choice I recommend you choose to patronize this store and their great products and service. Two thumbs up !
