CRUST Sourdough Deli (Palo Alto Square)

I've been here twice now, first when they opened and again today and I have to say they are very consistent. I'd really like to give them a 4.5 and what lowers it a bit for me is the lack of bread selection. I understand that it's a sourdough deli but it would be nice to have some variations of sourdough such as an olive sourdough, etc.

For the sandwiches themselves, I liked the portion size and the filling amounts match as well and have some good weight so I think they're worth the price. The veggies and cheese are all great as well and really fresh. I came back for the meatball since they're made in house so I had to come back and try them and they were worth it, great texture and size. They have 3 cookies and the quality of the cookie was really good too, not too buttery but great flavor and texture, bonus that you get a free cookie on yelp check-in as well!

While I didn't eat here, they have a variation of tables both inside as well as outside, which is nice! It's pretty big inside so you don't feel cramped when you're there waiting to place your order or picking up. They have pickles and peppers on the side that you can grab yourself, which is a nice touch.

I was searching on google maps for a meatball sub and found this place. It's fairly new I suppose. Parking over here is always super easy, and there were plenty of signs to catch your attention around the plaza. I came from the El Camino side of the plaza and it wasn't obvious where the entrance was despite the signs and flags.

The interior is gorgeous. The staff were very nice and helpful. They even offered me a free cookie for my first visit. I order a meatball sandwich and it was out super quick.

The sandwich is delicious. The sauce, cheese, and meatballs are all delicious, but the real star is the bread. All great sandwiches have to have great bread and this bread is phenomenal. I love me some sourdough. I powered the sandwich and was super satisfied. I'm going to come here a few more times to get a better feel on the menu but my first impression is outstanding.

We are so excited to have an awesome sandwich option nearby! CRUST was delicious - bread was perfectly warm and toasty and the ingredients were fresh and high quality. We got the hot pastrami & turkey sandwiches and both were excellent. The cookies were also delicious! Service was also warm and personable, we can't wait to return.

the sourdough bread is the perfect consistency of warm crusty exterior and chewy inside for their nicely ratioed sandwiches! and the cookies - dough! (doh!). staff is incredibly awesome, service was quick and the interior is super pleasant, spacious and welcoming. i ate my sandwich too fast for a pic - gonna post next time. would love to be able to buy their bread separately too and make some bánh mìs for meself :) 🥖🥖🥖

I am so happy to be the first to review here. As an employee of a nearby business I have been eagerly waiting for Crust to open. It has absolutely been worth the wait. The dip sandwich is amazing and it came out in less than a minute.

The staff is incredibly friendly and all seem very happy to be here and to be open.

I am telling our entire office about this wonderful place and hope it stays for a long time!
