Great review guys!!! My wife and I love Mona Lisa’s and we’ve been going there for years. My favorite is the spicy Italian Special, but I have them add fresh mozzarella. Now I’m going to have to wait more of your reviews. 😎
Nice! I miss ya mike! I have to watch all your videos now
Try Beach Hut Deli….downtown Oceanside
Price?
Doesn't matter what you order at Mona Lisa it's a 10 everytime! The best ever!
@@matthewsappington4132 Mikey Sandwich went there last week without me! He said it was still mindblowing.
Nice
@michaell5026 Thanks, Michael!
This popped up on my time-line today and what do you know my son was just texted me and he's at Mona Lisa's grabbing a sandwich
@adelacruz2887 sometimes the stars align in weird ways! Hope to see you again in the comments!
The bread ruins it. Its too hard. They use a different bakery now and no more ciabatta or focaccia which was the way to go before.
@1302inc we can see why people wouldn't like it. But to be honest... we loved the bread. We like crunchy, though, so that's just our preference
how could you guys not know DZ Akins????
@erikgrochowiak7526 we know it, just haven't had content there yet. We will though!
Never even showed the front of the place....😞
@@deeser286 we kinda did haha
Nice B-Roll😊😂
@dinorichetti right? Haha! Makes me laugh every time
Great content! I know a place that’s not in your wheelhouse but it’s freaking delicious! Get the pork meatball bahn mi at K’s sandwiches in Linda Vista.
We won't turn down a good sandwich! We will check them out!
Probably a little far south, but Beyer Deli on Beyer Blvd, in San Ysidro area. Mom and pop shop in an industrial area but the New Yorker sandwich is insane.
Thats not too far! if the food is worth it, then we will go!
Hey, guys! New subscriber here. You need to check out DZ Akins on Alvarado in San Diego. Great all around jewish deli with a long history and wonderful staff. Take the 8 to 70th St/Lake Murray. You won’t be disappointed!
DZ Akins will be on our list. I think it already is actually! We will make sure to go there soon now since you are like the 5th person to tell us this! haha
Turkado and the Veggie Delite/Supreme are my go tos at Board and Brew. Should do a plain review of the shop to give non locals a taste of the good stuff at Board and Brew.
I know, we really should! Because we love their food. If you ever try the chicken club, you will be in food heaven with their secret sauce on it. MY LORD THATS GOOD STUFF
You missed Ike’s Love and Sandwiches. A local regional chain.
We have not ruled that one out yet. It will be one we bring in eventually for sure!
Make your way up to Santa Monica and do Bay Cities Italian Deli. Even though Mona Lisa is good, Bay Cities will be even better… the Godfather and the Hot Pastrami are my go tos. I am a UCLA grad and live in San Diego, so know both places personally.
Oh that is some bold words! lol We will add Bay Cities to our list and when we do an LA trip, we will make sure to stop there. Thank you for the recommendations!
Hey, my fellow italians! I've watched every one of your videos and have enjoyed them all. But I had to make a comment about your review of the italian beef at Miilton's. I'm guessing you didn't get a chance to Google what an italian beef is from Chicago or are up-to-date with Hulu's smash hit The Bear. The award winning series, starts off in an italian beef stand in chicago. Suggesting mushrooms would make the sandwich better is equivalent to suggesting bean sprouts would make a Philly Cheese Steak taste better. It's nothing like a french dip or Philadelphia steak sandwich. I just felt bad for Milton's, which is such a terrific restaurant. It scratches, that ethnic memory you're looking for, also for all the Italian Chicagoans that are watching your videos. Although to be completely fair the garlic bread take on it is original for them. Anyway, I'm one of your subscribers and will continue to watch your videos.I think you are a cute father son duo giving us good feedback on some local places. Be sure to check out DZ Atkins in the future.
That was the longest comment we have gotten so far and we absolutely love the honesty. I think the Italian beef on the garlic bread was just strange and for some reason mushrooms sounded like it would balance out the saltiness. Overall, we agree that it hits home for the nostalgia and food to follow the vibe. Thank you again for your honesty and we always welcome your input! We look forward to more comments and don't forget to tell everyone about us! :)
LMAO. they got so offended at someone using the sidewalk as they're supposed to. nobody gives a slight fuvk about your weak ass tripod setup in SD. who do you think you are??????
Calm down buddy.
I live in Esco. I will be there soon. Friends in Fallbrook too. Will let them know.
Awesome! Be sure to let them know TheSandwichSnobs sent you haha! I hope you enjoy. Which sandwich will you get?
@TheSandwichSnobs Gotta try that Sausage and pepper maybe the meatball. That just looked unbelievable. I will let them know you sent me, thanks.
i Share the SAME Sediment as Others, Luv Your Channel, Great Content, Seems You Have Found Your Niche, & Who Doesn't Luv a Good Sandwich?? -- & You Both Are Great at Describing Everything You Eat. -- i Have Personally Tried Many of These Sandwich Shops ONLY b/c of You Guy's. -- Bravo!!
@johnengel5308 that's awesome that we are able to show off the best sandwiches around and seeing others try those delis because of us. That's our goal. We want to share the best around so you all can enjoy top teir food always. Thank you for being a loyal fan!
Love the Italian sausage sandwich. Campinis is great.
@cookingwithpap6762 one of my good buddies loves that sandwich too! We will be sure to try it next time!
co-sign.... I'm a HUGE fan of Italian sandwiches and I've had them everywhere I've been. The subs here the best I've had outside of New York. The bread is the difference IMO
@@danielrathbun8380 that toasted sesame torpedo is by far the flavor that adds the authentic taste of east coast delis. Mona Lisa's is definitely going to be hard to top!
Check out Rock n' Jenny's Italian Subs
yep! and POMA's in OB!
@@yeapstab we have been there but haven't Snobbed it yet! We will get there soon for a video! I'll move that one up the list for you guys 😁
@@larrymee1484 youre the second one to say this. So we are adding POMAs to the list now!
Temecula rock n jennys location is terrible now. Don't know what changed.
Yes!! So glad to finally see you guys at Mona Lisa! You guys are killin’ it as always!
@mostpalone6444 it's all because you recommended us to! Thank you for the recommending it! We loved it so much. POMAs is on our list now too. That video will come one day soon!
@@TheSandwichSnobs this is why you guys are awesome. Also, you’ve opened my eyes to a few places in the 760 area code. I know you guys will enjoy Poma’s. Can’t wait to see the episode. Keep up the great content!
@@mostpalone6444 thank you so much! The fact you're trying new place because of us is exactly the result we want!
if you guys are ever in the lake forest/laguna hills area try the FRENCH DIP at Moe's Deli. I'm not a big french dip fan but this thing is supreme (I get double meat and extra au jus). The bread they use is similar to bahn mi roll... its a must try.
That isnt too far from us! We would definitely try that one day! I added it to our deli list.
@@TheSandwichSnobs hell yeah! I look forward to the review because ITS GOOD
About time. 😆 Sandwiches looked DELICIOUS! Safe Journey! Have a GREAT DAY!!!
Haha! Sometimes we need a little break to work off all those carbs we eat!
Love Dominicks
That's a mild way of putting it for us! We are obsessed!
@TheSandwichSnobs the problem is I live Too close.I wanted all the time.The italian combo is the best Double meet Extra pepper chines
this is scare, my cat is sad
Not sure what you said but, what kind of sandwich do you like?
Just found you guys. Have you tried: Campini’s in Temecula Rock N Jenny’s in San Marcos & Temecula Agrusa’s in Escondido (my favorite)
Yes we have tried Campinis. We have a video of it! Also Rock N Jenny's will be on we do soon. Agrusas is coming soon too!
@@TheSandwichSnobs Awesome, I saw the Campini's one right after I posted. Bon Appetito.
This place is great! I go there at least once a month.
I don't blame you! What's your favorite sandwich?
@@TheSandwichSnobs I rotate between the Memphis and Philly Billy.
A well made sandwich is a thing of beauty no matter what you choose to put inside the bread. If I had to choose one food to have the rest of my life the sandwich would be it, and maybe tacos 😄
Sandwiches all the way! We feel the exact same as you!
Go back to making sandwiches your commenting about sandwiches is terrible and you aren’t doing justice for the business, the food, a UA-camr or yourself. Just my two cents. Two guys trying to make a living doing reviews. And use your real names!
Thanks for the two cents! We'll add it to our savings towards more sandwich reviews 😁👍
If people try to bring you down, it just means you're above them. Keep on with the sandwich reviews! They are top notch and you two are true sandwich experts!
@NicoloMaserati hell yeah brotha! Appreciate the kind words. We know what our fans like, and we ain't never gunna stop!
To your point, looks to me like they overloaded it with meat. I prefer less meat and some extra russian on the side.
haha! one of our good friends said "it looks like a brain between sliced bread" haha Not gunna lie though, we kind of like when its overloaded with pastrami or corned beef!
@@TheSandwichSnobs each to their own. I like a delicately balanced ratio.
It looks good. What was the name of the shop you owned? Just curious bc I live in North County for 17 yrs now. Maybe I heard of it. Grazie per il video, Salutamu!
It was called Port of Subs. It was in Oceanside for almost 30 years and we owned it for 17
love the channel and the reviews!!
that's what we love to hear! Hope to see you more and more in the comments 😁
YUM... Italian Beef! I'm in NW IL. PORTILLO'S!!! Safe Journey! Have a GREAT DAY!!!
It was good but not the best. The garlic bread was the biggest throw -off for us.
I've never even heard of which which or submarina.
Really? If youre ever in California, youll see them everywhere
@@TheSandwichSnobs I live in mid central cali...
@dmmness thats crazy! I can that we are surprised to hear this. Submarina has a tagline which is "California Subs" haha 😄
Your thumbnail is misleading. “Best Subs Ever”, yet only one of those sandwiches was a sub!… just saying 😂
@rynomite357 haha in a sense yes, 🤣
Love this concept. Can u pls do this again w/ meatball subs?
Just because you asked, I promise it will be the theme of the next Breaking the Chains video!
@@TheSandwichSnobs beautiful!
Submarina is my go to of all the chains! glad to see it take the W again. submarina reminds me of my all time favorite deli... port o subs!!! especially the one that use to be on oside ;)
Port O Subs is goated 🐐
Oh man! It was always a treat to see you come by and grab some grub. Good times back then man! We will go if and when we ever go to Vegas one day. They are everywhere out there.
Thats the deli we used to own back in the day! Glad to see a fan of what we hold close to our hearts!
I never have been to Which Wich or Submarina and I avoid Subway. Great video and speed the video making up. 😆 Safe Journey! Have a GREAT DAY!!!
We love seeing your comments William! Thank you for supporting us. We enjoy making content for our growing community
Submarina is my top sandwich spot! I used to go there like you guys go to Campini's lol
So far their the leader of the chains. they are 2-0. campinis will always be my #1 though. 🤤
Banana sandwich subscribed
BOOM Baby!
2024 Do a Philly Cheesesteak vs Chicago Italian Beef Footlong? Good Luck, Jim.(smile)
Themed videos where we try the same sandwich at different place will come soon! for now check out our Breaking The Chains videos for similar content
@@TheSandwichSnobs Touche' (smile)
@@maureencora1 😁👍
Best subs in the area!
We absolutely agree!
Place is off the charts! Wait to you try their Italian pulled beef sandwich!
Oh that sounds like something we both would love!!! When we go back to Dominick's, we will make sure to showcase that sandwich!
You have to try Agrusas in Escondido!!
We hope to go there soon! its on our list!
I love Dominick's Deli. So glad it is in Fallbrook!
Omg so do we! How often do you go?
