"There's just something about liquor store delis that I just have an absolute affinity towards. And Handy's deli is definitely is one of the better delis I've been to in a very long time. The yelp photos is what made me come here. I don't always search out chicken shawarma but after seeing the pictures, I knew I had to give it a try and it was as good as the pictures. I asked for it spicy, and the chicken was juicy, right about of sauces, and very affordable at $10. It's big enough for two meals, especially if you don't have a giant appetite. I also got the frisco sandwich with Turkey on ciabatta. I thought this sandwich was just ok flavor wise. While it was still tasty, I just felt it was missing something spicy or a little heat. Again, the price of this sandwich though, I'd try it again but with chicken. The menu is massive with a ton of unique sandwich offerings. This is a perfect spot to stop and get sandwich for a park day this summer plus it's very affordable. Calling in the order is probably the right play here. Located right off 19th Ave on Irving St. the parking can be brutal, but there's a lot across the street or try getting a spot on the other side of 19th and walk over."

I just want to make it clear that the restaurant stays open late, but the deli doesn't. Unfortunately, they don't serve subs late at night. I was disappointed.

Delicious sandwiches for an extremely fair price. Gotta love these Bodega style sandwich spots. They don't mess around here and don't try to impress you they just make good f ing sandwiches. Some snobby places here in SF could take note. I will be back for more, guaranteed. View menu

I had an amazing experience at this restaurant. I just tried the El Dorado breakfast wrap and it was one of the most delicious wraps I've had in a while. They also have a wide variety of tequila, whiskey, and wine to choose from. I will definitely be returning to this place soon.

I was really excited to try this place, I love delis sandwiches in general, but I ended up receiving the absolute worst Reuben I've ever had in my life, no exaggeration. The corned beef was not only sparse, but also tough, chewy and fatty (and not in the good way), barely any kraut or dressing. Sandwich was $12.99, ordered for delivery, over $20. I have some regrets.

I read an article on the internet about the 4 best delis in SF. Handy Deli was on that list. As much as I tried to be objective, I would honestly say there are better sandwich places in the City. BUT, if you happen to be on Irving St near 19th, then certainly give it a try. We ordered the Frisco Club with Swiss cheese on a cibatta and shared the two halves. It was plentiful but lacked that WOW factor. The deli had a good selection of liquor, so at least you can supplement your sandwich. View menu

I worked at this restaurant in 2017 and that's where I met my best friend while making sandwiches for her. Yesterday, we returned to Irving Street to relive those wonderful memories. The sandwiches were just as delicious as I remembered. I ordered my favorite turkey lulu and my friend got a sunrise. Johnson made our sandwiches with care and Mario was very hospitable, making the customer service top-notch. I highly suggest trying the sandwiches here. My friend even traveled all the way from San Jose to join me.

Came across Handy Deli on Yelp while looking for sandwiches near Golden Gate Park, and I'm so happy I did! I feel like delis that double as liquor stores can be hit or miss, and this was a huge hit! The variety of sandwiches was plentiful, as was the drink and beer selection. They had everything ranging from breakfast sandwiches, to traditional classics, and Italian sandwiches. On top of that they had chicken shawarma, salads, and a sign that even showed some Mexican food options. While we only went with sandwiches this time, we're definitely going back to try those panuchos. Service was friendly and sandwiches came out fresh as they were made to order. Excited to come back and try more of t...

"Earlier this year Salty 's was featured in one of the top 100 places to eat in the Bay Area in 2022, and after trying it a couple times, it 's easy to see why. Quality and flavor, great customer service, it checks all those boxes. I occasionally visit the 24 hour fitness on Van Ness, and Salty 's happens to be just few short blocks away which makes it perfect when I 'm looking for a post-workout sandwich. And for those that know me, I love me my sandwiches. On my latest visit, I decided to go with the 'Glorious B sandwich, which come with turkey, bacon, avocado, pepper jack, veggies, and garlic mayo. The blend of flavors and high quality of the turkey is no wonder it 's at the very top of the menu list. It 's one of those sandwiches, that you can bring to park and not need a ton of napkins to get through. It was well put together, with the ratio of all the ingredients matching well. Nothing overpowering, just sandwich perfection. The size of the sandwich I thought was the perfect size for my appetite. As I 've gotten older I can 't put down as much food as I used to, and after one-half I knew I could 've stopped eating, be content, saved the rest for later. But of course I ate the whole thing and nothing sounds better than taking a quick power nap right after. I love that their menu has so many different sandwich combinations, so definitely take time to check their menu before calling-in/walking-in to order because it 'll definitely save you some time. On my latest visit, I was in and out in 10 minutes. Definitely towards the top of my list of sandwiches in this part of town!"
