Delicious sandwiches made fresh. You might have to wait because the place is so good and popular.Lots of Italian food items and wine are available for sale.There is seating inside and outside the store/deli if you want to dine there.Very busy establishment every time I have been here. Ambiance is basically that of a grocery, so keep that pictured.

Take and bake lasagna is delicious. Sandwiches are made fresh. We stop to pick up the homemade pizza dough so we can make pizzas at home. So many good food choices to choose from. It is pricey but it is because it is made from scratch with quality products. This is a nice change from take out restaurants without having to do the work.

While it might seem a little unhealthy and lazy to rely on pre-packaged foods, I have found that everything at Sam's is scratch-made and with love.From the delicious sandwiches and salads to the mouthwatering pastas and meats, everything at Sam's is made with the utmost care and attention. The flavors are bold and authentic, and I always leave feeling satisfied and happy.One of the things I love most about Sam's is the wide range of options on offer. Whether I'm in the mood for a quick sandwich or a more elaborate meal, I can always find something to suit my tastes. The deli counter is always stocked with fresh, high-quality ingredients, and the staff are always willing to help with recommendations and suggestions.

Sam's is where we go for all of our Italian needs. Recently, I bought pappardelle pasta, sausage & cannoli shells. The staff is friendly and professional. I did not get a sandwich this time but they are great too. Don't let the location alarm you, Fresno PD loves to eat there & they have Security on the premises. Ciao

THE BEST MEATBALL SANDWICH IN TOWN! Sam's Deli is the consensus pick for it among locals and loyal patrons. This famous Italian market in Fresno has been making every dish from scratch for over 30 years. One of the most popular lunch spots as voted by the Fresno Bee. They have an array of top-grade wine, beer, hard liquor, seltzer water, old fashioned soft drinks, and make virtually every deli and pickled items, sauces, and bread right out of their kitchen. If you only grab one item from here, however, you would be remiss not to try the meatball sandwich. Yes, it is that good!This classic sub is so meaty, saucy, and cheesy. To explain what makes the meatball sandwich so special, we have to understand the components that go into the process. The meatballs need to be well-seasoned and good-sized. The meatballs prepared at Sam's Deli are also so tender and juicy. The marina sauce needs to be rich in texture and flavor. And the melted cheeses (provolone and mozzarella must be fresh and generously layered on the meatballs). At Sam's Deli, they do not completely cover the meatballs to mask the flavor and juices of the meatballs. Perfectly done! And lastly, the toasted bread must be fresh, and chewy but has that nice crunch with every bite. They check all the boxes here. There is nothing quite like a great meatball sandwich made fresh, using top-quality ingredients, and prepared from scratch. Amazing sandwiches and salads, fast and efficient take-out ordering process, unmatched service at the counter.One of the tastiest, heartiest meatball sandwiches I have ever had. There are a plethora of choices in Fresno County to grab a good sandwich, including the meatball sub. It is hard to imagine any place, however, that can make it better. And still, there are their equally hyped pastrami and steak sandwiches to try next.Closed on Sunday and Monday.

Come early and grab a ticket for your number to be called! Take a peak at the menu and dive into a cold drink from the open fridge & maybe a snack. I got the cold pasta to start with and shared it while we waited for our sandwiches. I've been here a couple times when I worked nearby but this visit was my fave, I found out there was a cute indoor seating area in the back where there is also a show kitchen and a glass window to a wine stock room! Relaxing and cool, just what I needed! I ordered the Sam's Focaccia Bread sando and it was sooo good! Must try, there will be something you'll like. I would say, it's a bit harder for vegans or plant based bc there is limited options and it's mostly cold veggies in bread or pasta/ salads in the deli window.

Just moved to a different part of Fresno and now I live close to a deli named Sam's Deli. Have been there a few times and I enjoy their Italian sandwich selection. A little bit pricey for my normal tastes, but their quality is good and I would recommend them to anyone. Looks like they have been here in Fresno for a long time.
