Lucia's Craft Sandwich — Restaurant in Benicia

I feel really conflicted writing this review. The sandwiches here are phenomenal - 5 stars. However, the owner’s integrity is what led me to leave a one star review. In my previous job, I was in charge of ordering food for meetings. I ordered frequently at Lucia’s (they’re a local small business and their sandwiches taste amazing - what’s not to love?) but one time I ordered to the wrong location. I called in and they told me that there’s no way to cancel but that they’d refund me. They told me to put the same order in again at the correct location. Flash forward a couple of months, as I’m going through my expenses, I realize I was never refunded. No worries, probably an honest mistake I thought. I called the store and asked to speak with Randy (the owner) around 10 times. He was coincidentally “not available” every time at either location. I then got his email and started emailing him - he never responded to a single email or voicemail. I am very disappointed by the lack of integrity and honesty and just the way this entire situation was handled. I have always supported local and small businesses but this...

Love Lucia’s Craft Sandwiches! This spot is always consistent with their quality and flavors. My fiancé got the Italian sandwich and only was able to finish half - he said it was very filling and everything inside was well seasoned.

I got the Cesar salad and added chicken since I was in the mood for something familiar. The dressing tastes house made and was delicious. I’d definitely get it again. Something noticeable that not all other places do well - the salad was well dressed throughout and the croutons were mixed in too! I loved that because I didn’t have to make a mess mixing everything in. I really appreciated the care in preparation. Next time I might try a sandwich or a different salad because everything on the menu sounded good.

We waited maybe 10 min for our order and it was very busy.

In terms of space, there’s only one high top table in the back of the shop with 4 chairs and next to that there’s a high bar with 4 stools facing the wall, so if you’re dining in, heads up the space is small and it’s first come first serve seating.

Overall, great quality sandwiches for the price!...

We were craving sandos on our drive home to Sacramento from Oakland and wanted something beyond the hustle and bustle. That's when we found Lucia's in Crockett, what a hidden gem! Neither of us had ever been to Crockett before but its quiet charm and quirky vibe immediately won us over. We ordered the Toasted Turkey Club and the Applewood Smoked Ham (with bacon added) and both were absolutely incredible. My husband said the club was the best he's ever had. I don't think we spoke more than a few words while devouring our lunch and the only ones spoken were directly related to our love of these sandwiches! All orders are prepared to-go but there's a small seating area if you'd prefer to stay and enjoy your sandwich on the spot. Also the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better! Lucia's is officially on our must-stop list and we're already looking forward to coming back to explore more of the menu...
