Lit'l Pepper Gourmet — Restaurant in San Diego

I just love this place. Not only are the sandwiches and salads delicious, the level of service is superb. I order often from here to feed the many executives that travel to my company from Europe, Japan, Korea, South America and Mexico. All of my guests have been extremely happy with the quality of the food. My food is always delivered on time and always has that extra touch that lets me know that they appreciate my patronage. Little do they know that they have pulled me out of many a bind when food ordered from elsewhere does not show or meetings that come up with no notice happen and I have executives that need to eat with no disruption to their meeting schedule.

There is love at Lit'l Pepper. The love of a family that enjoys providing delicious food and excellent customer service. It shows. It shows when they recognize your voice when you call to place your order. It shows when you forget to order plates and utensils and they show up with your order anyway. It shows in the home made cookie that you get just because. It shows when the delivery person shows up in a mad rush to get all of the orders out but still has that smile that lets you know that even in a pinch, the level of service you are going to get will still...

A Heartwarming Surprise at My Favorite Deli

Dear fellow food enthusiasts,

I recently visited my beloved deli—a place that has been my culinary haven for years. The staff there has always been exceptionally kind, providing top-notch service. But this time, they went above and beyond.

You see, I’d just had mouth surgery, so I ordered something I thought would be easy to eat. To my surprise, they handed me a wrap. Now, wraps are delicious, but my stitches weren’t thrilled. As I struggled to eat it, the owner appeared with another plate—same dish, but this time in a easier to eat presentation. He’d noticed my predicament and acted swiftly.

It wasn’t just about the food; it was about their thoughtfulness. They made my day brighter, and I left with a heart full of gratitude.

So here’s to the deli that knows its customers and serves kindness alongside meals. And to the owner who turned a simple lunch into a memorable...

I want to hear with my co-workers it's walking distance from our Kearny Mesa office. We rarely go into the office so I'm not really familiar with all of the lunch spots, but I guess this is the top rated place by many of our co-workers. It's about in 8 minute walk which on a nice day is a great break from the office. It is a cute casual deli style setup. With a pretty tasty variety of sandwiches Kama soups and salads. I ordered the brisk, which came with blue cheese and caramelized onions. We also got a few soups to share, I was honestly so full I didn't even get a chance to try the soup. The sandwiches are pretty filling, specially for lunch so I took half to go. We all loved our food. Honestly this place exceeded my expectations. It also has a very mom and pop family feel, which just makes me feel really comfortable and welcome to. Highly recommend this place if you were...
