Visited this place for the first time last week. My daughter kept asking me to make her carbonara pasta, but I could not find the special ingredient (guanciale) anywhere. After a visit to Vons, Ralph's, and Sprouts, I fiinally decided to search for an Italian deli nearby hoping something would come up...and lucky me, Italian Bakery & Deli came up. First impression: for a small place, they sure pack a lot of goodness. Also the staff was super friendly, especially George whom I had the pleasure to order from. He was very patient and even offered some samples of deli meats, cheese, and breads. He took pride in his work and the store's offering. Definitely going back...can't wait to try the specialty sandwiches and other authentic Italian foods.

I was transported to the fragrance of what I think was little Italy I ordered myself a cold cut turkey sandwich on a crunchy roll w/ provolone cheese. Hubby ordered turkey w/ roast beef sandwich. We partnered it with the Boulder Canyon sea salt & cracked pepper kettle chips. I must say the Italian dressing & freshness of the turkey cuts & bread made it one of the best sandwiches in town.

I moved away from LA 9 years ago and always make an effort to come by when I'm in town. Still owned by the same family. Food still tastes exactly the same. The service is great. They're always smiling. The place is tiny but mighty packed with all kinds of goodies to take home. The hard bread is our favorite. I've searched far and wide at other Italian shops and nothing beats their sandwiches.

Food is excellent very friendly staff my favorite is their eggplant parmigiana Dinner or sandwich but all the sandwiches and pasta varieties are second to none Along with their lunch meat but their bread and rolls are the best around I have been going there for years

I am SO ELATED!!!!!! Before I moved to the valley, I lived in the SCV down the street from Italia Deli there, and I was so sad to move because I used to eat there frequently. Yesterday I was in the Trader Joe's parking lot and said to myself, let me go check out this Italia Bakery across the lot and see what's inside. Guess what!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's the SAME PLACE!!! I've never been so happy I found this place!!!!!!!! Oh Turkey and provolone on a soft roll how I've missed you!!!!! In this city where you can find a fast food restaurant on every corner, these fresh delis are all gems!!! If you haven't checked then out, I recommend you do! Now, this location is a bit more compact than the one in SCV, and the line forms directly in front of the entrance which can feel awkward when it's busy, something I imagine is quite common here. You have to grab a ticket number and you will get called up according to your number to order. I LOVE the turkey and provolone on a soft roll, it's just perfection in my eyes! This location also boasts a variety of other intriguing items. I picked up what appeared to be a pizza-like bread and another resembling focaccia. My only minor concern was the absence of labels for these which left me unsure of the names of my selections, I just pointed and said "one of those and one of those." I also bought a garlic bread from the refrigerator section that I plan to make when I prepare with a pasta dish later this week. Additionally, this delightful bakery/deli offers an array of other high-quality items to shop for such as olive oils, or premade pizza or pasta dishes that they make and put in the freezer, and they have so many other things such as Italian cookies! I'm so happy. I noticed some other reviews mentioned the slower pace in sandwich preparation. In a city accustomed to fast food, I can understand this sentiment. With only two staff members behind the counter, and occasionally multiple sandwich orders, the wait can be a bit longer. However, knowing the exceptional quality of their sandwiches, I personally believe the wait is more than worth it. Also when I went inside I had some anxiety because I only had my phone with me so I wanted to tap and pay, the equipment I thought appeared older, but thankfully it's good to know their tap and pay works with the phone! I can't wait to come back to Italia Bakery/Deli again and again and again!

Back for one of my favorites! Large Turkey sub on a hard roll with everything on it + mushrooms! Never disappoints and the best part is saving the other half for lunch the next day. Service is fast with a side of Italian sass. Plenty of parking out front but I highly recommend calling ahead and picking up.

Nice place to hit up on a Saturday! 9 for 42.00 They were good. Not sweet as all. Friendly workers there.
