I’ve heard about this place for a while and was finally in the area so I made it a point to stop by on my trip. I got there 15 minutes before they opened and there was already a line forming outside which is usually a good sign that the food is going to be great. High Street Deli did not disappoint. Their version of a French dip sandwich was absolutely amazing. I will definitely be stopping by anytime I’m in the area. Also loved the stoner vibes

Wow! This place is great. There’s another in SLO. The chicken cutlet sandwich is one of the best I’ve ever had. This place is insanely busy. Get there when they open or you’ll be surprised how long you’ll wait. You can place an order days in advance. If you have to kill time, this area is a great walk. The food is worth the wait. This place is a rare gem. Enjoy!!

High Street Deli – Los Osos Review

After starting the day with a refreshing hike at Montana de Oro and soaking in the stunning coastal views, we decided to grab lunch at High Street Deli in Los Osos, just a quick 12-minute drive from the park. I’ve been to the original High Street Deli in San Luis Obispo before and had a great experience, so I was curious to see how the Los Osos location stacked up – and it did not disappoint.

When we arrived, about 30 minutes after opening, there was already a line, which was a good sign that we were in for something special. One cool thing we discovered was that this location has exclusive menu items you won’t find at the SLO spot. Naturally, we had to give them a try.

Here’s what we ordered:

Big Parm (Los Osos Exclusive)
Spring Cutlet (Los Osos exclusive)
Deli Burger (Los Osos exclusive)
Italian Sub

Because it was busy, we had to wait a bit, so if you’re in a rush, I’d recommend ordering ahead to skip the line. Once we got our food, though, it was absolutely worth the wait. If you don’t mind waiting be ready to wait up to 2hr plus.

The Spring Cutlet was incredible – crispy, perfectly cooked chicken that left me wanting to come back just to explore more of the cutlet sandwich options. My cousin ordered the Deli Burger, another Los Osos-only item, and raved about how juicy and flavorful it was. We also did a little sandwich swap, and I got to try the Big Parm – another winner, packed with flavor and everything you’d want from a hearty, satisfying sando.

By the end of the meal, we were all happy, full, and already talking about what we’ll try next time. If you’re ever in Los Osos or heading back from a day at Montana de Oro, I highly recommend making a stop at High Street Deli. Just be prepared for a bit of a wait – and trust me, it’s worth it!
