Plaza Deli

Great ambiance & decor. Nothing but great experiences here. The bill was well within reason for the quality.

Plaza Deli has been singlehandedly driving a massive amount of traffic to this strangely empty shopping center for YEARS. The owner, Larry, and his secondhand man Josh really know their business and go out of their way to give you a great experience. The sandwiches are classic delicious New York deli style. The vintage interior doesn't miss a single detail. Always plenty of seating outside, bring your dog!

Santa Barbara's hidden spot...shhhh. Great sandwiches, paninnis and salads and the prices are awesome for the amount of food and quality. I always get the lunch special. Soup and 1/2 sandwich. Honestly, I almost never get a full sandwich any more. The 1/2 sandwich is loaded! Grab a menu to take home and next time call in if you want to skip the line ????

This is a hidden gem in Santa Barbara! Small but popular among locals, this location can only fit a few seats inside and knick knacks cover every square inch of the walls. From vintage sodas and bottle caps to classic posters and pictures, this deli packs punch. The Cajun chicken sandwich is my favorite but they have a plethora of hot + cold subs, sandwiches and salads at a very affordable price for those on a budget. There is lots of open seating outside and easily accessible public restrooms next door. Interaction with staff is brief but they're service is quick considering how busy this place gets. I've been coming here since I was a kid and it's still just as delicious!

First and foremost, the food is always great. The prices are super reasonable. Then we move onto the staff; they're always polite and attentive. The owner always makes it a point to great people, if he's not too busy. Awesome place, especially on a warm afternoon, for a stop on the patio. Thanks guys. Keep up the great work
