Woods Deli in Huntington Park was the only other California spot to crack the top five. Popular sammies at the three-year-old deli include the Turkey Pretzel, which is loaded with smoked turkey breast, veggies, and house-made chipotle sauce on a soft pretzel bun made locally. Fans also rave about the Italian Stallion, which has four types of meat, spicy pickled onions, and a red bell pepper sauce. 

What they're saying:

Yelp Elite Yela M. called Sierra Subs and Sandwiches "exactly what you need for your hikes before or after."

We tried The Manwich (10/10). It’s savory, tangy, and refreshing. The Gourmet Green is also packed with flavor and has a small kick in the [creamy almond-cilantro-jalapeno] sauce. Lots of seating inside and there’s also outdoor seating that leads down to an incredible view of the river," her review read. 

Closer to home, Yelper Patsy S. described the food at Woods Deli as "fresh and clean."

SUGGESTED: These are California's top Hawaiian restaurants, according to Yelp

"I had the El Chavo [Black Forest ham on a French baguette] and it’s an extra special torta indeed! The jalapenos give it a nice spice [and] the creamy queso fresco tones the spice down. Delicious! It’s big enough to share. I would definitely order that again," she wrote.

Big picture view:

Franky's Deli Warehouse in Hialeah, Florida took the top spot on the list. Yelpers noted bestsellers like their Famous Italian, packed with ham, capicola, salami, and provolone, as well as the Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich with thinly-sliced ribeye, onions, and sweet peppers cooked with a special secret sauce and topped with smoked provolone.
