Erik's Delicafe - Fremont

Their remodel looks great, but unfortunately it came with new menu prices. Most sandwiches are around $9 and a cup of soup is $4.50 now. The last couple of times we were there they were out of a soup and it was 12:30pm with no line. They do make excellent sandwiches and soups, as well as offering great gluten-free options.

Great sandwiches, fresh ingredients, sandwiches aren't your typical over processed, packaged kind, better combo of ingredients. Great soups, too.

I never expected to give Erik's Deli a five-star review, but the friendly and attentive service, along with the generous and fresh salad I received, absolutely deserves it. The lettuce, greens, and vegetables were incredibly fresh — no old lettuce from the day before like you sometimes find in other delis. The portion size was quite generous, too. The dressings were also a cut above the usual bottled options, which can really influence your opinion on any salad. I ordered the house green salad, and it was loaded with fresh ingredients like sprouts, sliced red peppers, chickpeas, cucumbers, red onion, and topped with croutons. It was a hearty and healthy lunch that exceeded my expectations. I even returned to get my 14-year-old son, who is a picky eater, his own salad after he couldn’t stop stealing mine! I would definitely come back for a soup-and-salad combo.

$16 for a chicken sandwich is just too pricey. The food is good, but it's not worth that much.

The prices are a bit high for the portion sizes, but it's definitely worth it. The sandwiches are made with fresh ingredients, and the soups are delicious. I highly recommend trying the REO Speedwagon sandwich alongside a bowl of tomato bisque.
