So happy we have this place in the neighborhood! Solid breakfast and lunch options for reasonable pricing. My roommate goes here weekly and I finally tagged along to see why they like it so much. It hits the spot when you're looking for a comforting breakfast sammie! There are always several regular customers coming in and out, which is always a great sign! Way better than any fast food option/chain restaurant. The menu is quite extensive when it come to food options. They also have some grab and go snacks/drinks. They have many meat-forward options plus several vegetarian ones! The interior is worn, but in a welcoming way. The front always has space despite there being a small, ever-changing group waiting to pick up orders. You can also order ahead online which is a huge plus!

I love their tofu banh mi - they'll happily make it vegan if you ask (and replace the chipotle mayo with hummus). The staff are super nice and there is seating outside as well as inside (though it's a bit crowded inside). All around a classic sandwich shop.

Very sweet people working here and really enjoyed our breakfast. Best breakfast sandwiches! Can’t wait to try the rest when we return.

In a city with lackluster options for breakfast sandwiches, Christie's deli stands out as an exception. Whether you are looking for a simple sandwich or a carefully crafted combination of unique flavors in one of the specialty breakfast sandwiches, you will not be disappointed. They can get busy so I would recommend calling in ahead of time. The Christie's Breakfast special is my go to and always hits the spot.

I have always been here. This place is so amazing, and the price is very cheap. I drink coffee every morning before getting to work. The special menu they have is really amazing, and wow. The taste of the food is also delicious. The owner was also very friendly with us.

I can highly recommend the Grilled Salmon sandwich and the Spicy Grilled Chicken Panini. Both were great! The friendly service was next level and I understand why this place has a lot of regulars coming in for a quick bite.

Got an egg & cheese with hash brown and it was really good - $8. I would definitely come back and try their other menu items. They don't have barista type coffee which I was sad about but they do have a coffee machine you can serve yourself. The owners seem very nice and care to cook your food to your liking. There is street parking and a loading only zone which helps if you just want to grab something quick and head out.
