I absolutely love The Yellow Deli. When I became gluten-free, I missed a good sandwich most of all. The sandwiches here are amazing! I crave them. I always get the Sante Fe sandwich (or similar) on rice loaf. They have great fresh menu items grown from their local farm. Just a warning, it is a very laid back atmosphere, so don’t come if your in a rush.

They understood my needs for a GF meal here and I was very pleased with the food. Their rice loaf can be used for any of the sandwiches, and it would taste amazing even if it weren't GF. We don't usually get to eat bread this good. I had the Reuben, and it was delicious. We also got a cranberry walnut salad to split (but the sandwiches were so filling, we saved it for the next day) and they wrapped up the non-GF bread that came with it separately so my husband could eat it. They made sure to tell him it wasn't GF bread. Very good experience.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Go for the experience but the gluten free options aren't that great. Great place to get a drink and study.

Hands down the best restaurant to visit in Vista! They have an amazing rice loaf that you can substitute in for any of their breads, which are all home made! And their chili is to die for, a must have if you come visit!!! And if the spread of the week is the cilantro jalapeño hummus, you have to have the yellow submarine sandwich on the rice loaf-- it's delicious!!!!Never a let down at the yellow deli! They make everything fresh and grow their own produce. You won't be disappointed!!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

One of my favorite places to eat. They serve soups, sandwiches, chili, hot dogs, yogurt parfaits, etc. the sandwiches all come with chips & a pickle on the side. They have a gluten free rice bread that is made in house and it’s delicious. My favorite sandwich to get is the Reuben on GF bread. Recently had their veggie burger and it was delicious . The hibiscus deli cooler is my favorite drink there.

No GF Menu but a number of GF options including sandwiches made with buckwheat bread. Very tasty, clean, friendly, calm place. Seem to pay good attention to food allergies.

Cutest place ever! Was slightly disappointed that the only Celiac safe food was a salad, but it sure was a good salad! Also had the banana smoothie. Waiter knew exactly what was safe for me and how to have kitchen staff prepare it. Loved the atmosphere - I had to take photos because it reminded me of a friend’s house.
