Antonelli’s Deli is family-owned and operated. We began in New Jersey during the 60’s and decided to bring that East Coast deli style sandwich out to the West Coast. We opened our doors in El Cajon in…
Everytime I order this, it is amazing.
Consistent quality. In eight years I've never had a single complaint about the food. The prices are high but Im willing to pay. Dont know what they do to make it so delicious! I get mine on toasted sourdough with provolone lettuce and deli mustard. Last meal worthy.

The #38 Pastreuben: Pastrami, Swiss Kraut, 1000 Island Dressing on Rye was AMAZING!! Tons of thinly sliced meat, a Swiss/kraut mix, which was perfectly balanced, and just enough sauce on toasted rye. This thing was enormous! Packed perfectly to maintain the toasty crunch on the bread, and nice warm ingredients! 10/10, for sure. Also tried the #23 Roast Beef, Jack Cheese & Onion on a recommendation. Also a huge portion with tons of meat, the grilled onions really stood out in this sandwich, but it was a little dry for my taste and needed a sauce or something. But if you just want a simple beef and onion sandwich, it doesnt get more fresh than this, and the quality of the ingredients are top notch! A little expensive, but worth every penny!

Phenomenal. 5x better than Jersey Mikes and 10x better than Subway. Couldn't eat it all and I'm glad so I can have it again later. Got the #8 Deli Club Sub: Ham, Turkey, Roast Beef & Swiss with extra onion and mayo and they actually listened. Potato Salad ½ Lb. was bomb and the Homemade Lemonade has refreshing and not too sweet. 9.7 out of 10

Think Jersey Mike quality and price but double the sandwich; the 12" is gigantic across! I got the deli club, the meat is fresh and delicious as are all the veggies and cheese; highly recommend!
Do not recommend the cookie: a prepackaged Sandy's brand that was not very good, still a 5 star sandwich though!

Antonelli's is by far the best sandwich shop in east county. Picked up a meatball sandwich from Pepper Farms Deli and was so disappointed I didn't even eat it. When I got home, I ordered one from Antonelli's, it was twice the size and twice as tasty!
