Very careful preparation of my sandwich on GF bread always! I’ve eaten at Eric’s Deli all over the Bay Area, because it is such a dependable, safe and delicious choice. Staff are well trained and very friendly.

Great gluten free bread and staff paid close attention to the details!

I am super sensitive and have been only ordering salads or soups in fear that the sandwiches are not safe. I ordered one today and feel great! I watched the prep, and they changed gloves and don’t really touch the food directly. I feel safe ordering again. Update 9/5/23: I have become a regular here and love the sandwiches!!

They have absolutely no idea what gluten free means. I asked which sandwiches we're gluten free, and no matter how many different times I asked the answer was "this bread is gluten free". I asked if the pesto on a sandwich was gluten free, "I don't know but the bread is gluten free so it's gluten free". DO NOT EAT HERE. It's sad because the one in downtown San Jose is good.

This is the only sandwich shop I feel completely comfortable eating at! Owners, managers, and most employees are incredibly mindful, aware of what ingredients are and aren’t gluten-free, and take really good care to avoid cross-contamination. They have a separate prep area for gluten-free sandwiches and will cut/make ingredients from scratch to avoid cross-contamination. It’s still a sandwich shop, and there’s always a chance something will slip through the cracks, so if you’re incredibly sensitive that’s something to keep in mind. I’ve never had an issue, though, and after watching the employees work and how careful they are, I feel very comfortable eating here.

Had a great experience here. I called the week before to verify their gluten free options. Upon arriving the worker remembered talking to me & made my sandwich himself with all the precautions to prevent cross contamination. It was a good sandwich with good service.

Server was very patient with all our questions and they made sure our order was handled properly. The GF bread was good, didn’t detract from the sandwich.

All sandwiches available on gluten free bread.
I don’t know what my reaction to gluten is yet (if any), because I’ve always been asymptomatic & I’m only in the first year of the diet / probably still haven’t fully healed yet, BUT I felt very confident in the fact that they knew what they were doing to make sure that I would be safe eating their food. When I told them I had the equivalent of a severe gluten allergy, they told me they would make sure to change gloves, fully clean surfaces / use a designated station for me, and use designated knives and other utensils. They also pointed out the chips and other sides that I could have safely. Also, their sandwich was delicious; I highly recommend the “farmers market” 🙂

Loved the gluten-free bread. I also loved that they did not charge extra for it, I don’t think I’ve ever experienced that anywhere else. They prepared it in a separate area. Overall it was probably one of the best sandwiches I’ve had.

I ordered delivery so was slightly worried. My sandwich and salad both had gluten free stickers on them. I’m a very sensitive celiac and felt fine. I ordered the next day too while on a brief vacation. Lots of gf options and can order all sandwiches without cheese if needed.

They know the drill for separate preparation. Manager did a couple double checks on sauce of interest, guiding me back to simple mayo and mustard to be safe. Typical GF bread that tends to crumble easy but otherwise good portions and tasty.
Yes
Really great sandwiches. They do a great job keeping food from getting cross contaminated.
Yes
Had a gluten free bread sandwich with Turkey, avocado and bacon. Yummy
No dedicated prep area at this location
Staff was super-friendly and helpful, but were so focused on the gluten-free protocol that they got our order wrong and we didn’t realize it until we were in the car and they had already locked the doors because they were closing. Sandwiches were eh. Udi’s bread (not a fan) was past it’s prime and promptly fell apart as soon as we took our first bites. Turkey had a funky taste and odor. We ended up not eating them. Won’t be back for this one.
Plenty of options and the staff always asks if the order is preference or "allergy". Love the sandwiches and potato salad!
Yes
They were able to make every sandwich on gluten free bread. They also had a few gf soups too.
Yes
Have gluten free bread and use an allergy kit to prepare sandwiches. Asked if it was allergy or preference so they knew to use all fresh ingredients and be extra careful for celiac.
Yes
Good sand which! They asked if it was an allergy or a preference. Then used a separate preparation space.
Staff were knowledgeable about gf foods and made me a great sandwich!!
Yes
Knowledgeable about celiac/gluten allergy did not get sick
Yes
Just ate here and I'm perfectly fine! This is the first time I've eaten out since diagnosis and I'm so glad the experience was a good one. Even my receipt says "SUB Gluten-Free Whole Grain [Bread]" and "Allergy!!!" on it. I spoke to the cashier and he assured me they have a food allergy protocol and I would be taken care of. And of course, the sandwich was delicious. THANK YOU!
Yes
The staff knew what they had available that was gluten free. My husband and daughter (both have celiac) got chili and potato salad. Both were very happy with their lunch. Everyone was extremely friendly as well. My daughter (9years old) kept thanking me for finding this place for lunch. We will come back when in the area.
Yes
We have eaten here and at other Eric’s and always find it easy and safe. Soups and sandwiches
Yes
Celiac friendly. They ask if it’s allergy or preference. Great sandwiches and soups. No reaction and I’m extremely sensitive to gluten and cross contamination. Will come back!!
Yes
The staff was very knowledgeable and do many gf orders a day. The sandwiches were big and delicious! Well done!
Yes
Almost always had gluten free bread and I’ve never gotten sick off of it
I eat here all the time. All sandwiches can be made with Udi’s gluten free bread. Two soups are gluten free also.
First time D E L I C I O U S sandwich.
Erik’s has a gluten free protocol so I was surprised to had been glutened when I ate at this location last 4 years ago. Came back with some coworkers yesterday, ordered my usual GF Pilgrims Progress and no reaction! Glad I can rely on Erik’s to have a safe gluten free meal! Thanks!
Yes
They always take gluten allergies seriously! Yay!
This is some of the best gluten free bread I’ve ever had!!! Their sandwich was sooo delicious, I only wish it had more meat. I’m going to see if I can ask for that next time. I really loved that they had a “G” next to the soups they offered if they were gluten free and over all it was a great experience!
Gluten free options are clearly marked on the menu. My sandwich was very good.
Yes
Slightly different bread than another location I’m used to; their stuff was a little mushy. But I love the dedicated GF prep area.
Yes
Yes
Ran out of gluten free bread- but the half sandwich I had was great! I appreciate being asked “preference or allergy”, and the attention taken :-)
Yes
They have a dedicated cutting board and station and can print out what is safe. Very helpful for the most part. I did have one anxious to please worker who told me the Asian dressing was safe but I asked another to confirm that and it indeed had soy sauce. I was glad I pushed it. Delicious soups! They use Udi’s bread.
