Handy Deli has quickly become our go-to sandwich spot in San Francisco. We ordered the Frisco Club, the Turkey Lulu, and the Chicken Cardini Club—the chicken was super delicious and everything tasted fresh. The staff was friendly and attentive, and our food came out fast. Amazing spot for a great bite.

Service is super friendly and attentive. Sandwiches are traditional Italian delights: simple, but executed perfectly and with appreciation for flavors that just belong together. I also have a picky eater; they went the extra mile and turned a boring ham and cheese into a toasty ham and cheese grilled treat. Outstanding selection of adult beverages. Seriously, a thing of beauty. Feels rustic, not old -- clean and well-tended. Stopped by here on a whim between visits to the Legion and the deYoung; grabbed lunch and had a picnic in the park and this made our DAY! "Fat Pete" knew what a sandwich should taste like. Don't skip the giant cookies; peanut butter n' chocolate chip is still the world's greatest combination.

I ordered a sandwich called chicken shawarma and the service was quick, friendly and the sandwiches were delicious. I would go again.
