Stopped into Lucca Italian Sandwich Shop for a quick lunch and found it to be a solid little spot in the Columbia District. It’s tucked away outside a high-rise office building with window ordering and a few tables in the building’s foyer for limited seating. Definitely geared toward the weekday business crowd, but it works well for a grab-and-go meal.
I went with the Roma sandwich, which came on crisp focaccia bread. The bread was fresh, flavorful, and had a really nice texture that stood out. The rest of the ingredients were fresh too, though I felt like something was just a little short of perfect — maybe a bit more prosciutto would have rounded it out better.
Overall, it was very good, and I’d absolutely recommend trying it. For the price point, I would’ve liked a touch more substance, but it’s still a quality lunch option. Not really a destination spot, but it fits its purpose well and definitely delivers for the Monday-through-Friday crowd.

You won’t find another sandwich this good in San Diego, I promise. Lucca, we LOVE YOU!!!!! We have been eyeing this spot for months but unfortunately haven’t been able to make it due to the early hours and work schedules. Today we had some free to make it happen, and we were blown away. The ingredients were so so fresh and flavorful. I was extremely excited to hear that the pesto they use is tree-nut free. We both enjoyed the Roma, an absolutely huge sandwich. A really nice outdoor space with seating, umbrellas, and views of the city. We can’t wait to come back!!!

It’s legitimately a gourmet sandwich, with very premium toppings. The fresh focaccia is a rare treat. But I cannot give 5 stars, as everything was too oily and they lack any vegan protein offerings. (Mozzarella available for cheese eaters.) This is just a sandwich stand, you eat at outdoor tables in front of an office building. I was there early and they were very fast. Ignore the printed menu prices, as my $12.50 sandwich was actually just under $17.

I gave 3 stars for atmosphere only because it is a counter service not a diner but I love their coffee and the sandwich. It’s fresh.

Sandwich was incredible.
Ambience is so-so. It’s just a sandwich counter next to an office building.
Service was slow. I pre-ordered and my sandwich was 30 minutes later than the app stated. From order to pick up was approx 45 min. I definitely had to scarf my lunch and rush back to work and was late for a meeting.
My recommendation to patrons is to pre-order 1 hour before you need it.
My recommendation to the restaurant is to invest in an additional set of hands during the lunch rush and also a second toaster.

Ideally I would give this place a 4.7. I found the food I ordered (roma) to be quite tasty and enjoyable but I think the price point is a bit too high for what you get. Firstly this is a stand not a restaurant, and this sandwich price is more something I would expect at a sit-down restaurant. Secondly, there is no option for a separate pick up spot for online orders, which delays the process when you made a point to order prior to avoid the time in takes to stand in line for those who did not order. While this place is a stand, there are some outdoor tables and chairs to enjoy your lunch at.

For me, it’s arguably the best sandwich in all of San Diego. Now it comes with a caveat, you have to like foccacia bread and you have to like these Italian meats. So if you’re looking for egg salad, ham and turkey or any sort of hot sandwich, this ain’t your place. But everytime I’ve ordered anything from here it’s been delicious and consistently so. The service is friendly. I’ve never had a wrong order where they messed up anything. The bread is pillowy, the meats are delicious and the veggies and accoutrements are wonderful. I’d put this up against any of the Italian sandwich shops up in LA.

When you really are craving a classic Italian sandwich, clean and fresh with emphasis on ingredient quality for flavor. Absolutely fantastic foccacia!

Best italian sandwich I’ve tasted in San Diego/California. Great service and taste. Portions are great. Will definitely come back soon !!

I agree with others saying these are by far the best sandwiches in San Diego. They remind me of the now world famous Antico Vinaio sandwich shops in Florence Italy. What a treat to have such great sandwiches in my home town so that I don’t have to fly to Italy to get them.
