D.z. Akin's Delicatessen - La Mesa

Not happy with the ordering app here Door Dash.The sandwiches were great. The mushroom Barley Soup was good. I ordered the Scooped Salad Platter and didnt get one of the 3 scoops I ordered. No whitefish and it is plainly on the receipt. I ordered 3 pastries and only one was delivered. I guess I didnt pay for the other 2 pastries but they also show on my receipt. DZ Akins referred me to Door Dash for refund or satisfaction.

Excellent food!!! Very delicious and prepared very well!! any chance I get I ordered the cobb salad and the pastrami 62. Reuben Sandwich from door dash, since I have a crazy busy schedule. Highly recommend DZ AKINS

I have ordered the fried chicken dinner in the past and this time it was horrible. The size of the chicken pieces were a joke. You cant get the full gist of how tiny these pieces of chicken were via the picture, but they should be ashamed. The mashed potatoes had lumps of uncooked potato in it and the veggies were so over cooked it was like bad cafeteria veggies that had been sitting all day. The dinner was $32 including a cup of soup. There were other problems with my order, which for two dinners and dessert was $77 not including all the other fees for delivery and tip. It was quite apparent the kitchen staff just doesnt care or lacks skills. Just has gone down hill and for almost $90 for dinner I can think so many other quality meals I could have for $90.

The Brownie with Walnuts and Cheesecake D.Z.s Famous NY Style e was good. the French Toast had no powder sugar and or syrup which they make you make extra for and yet didnt get. the Home Fried Potatoes werent fully cooked they did make sure not to have onions as requested.

The Fresh Turkey Breast Sandwich is excellent and a large portion. The Cinnamon Twist Danish is phenomenal and perfectly fresh. The Potato Knish item ordering needs to be reviewed. A sauce is required (gravy or sour cream) and is $1 extra but I did not want any sauce so canceled the item. Ordering without sauce is not possible and unfortunate.
