Five stars all the way. Love this mom and pop shop. Great employees or owners or managers, I dont know who the boss is there but everyone is so nice and the food is first rate.

I work nearby, so Ive been a customer for years. They have the best quality sandwiches 🥪 in the valley. I love the staff, its like talking to old friends. Try it once and youll be hooked. My faves are the French dip and the chicken salad on squaw bread is the bomb.

If youre in the mood for a stacked high sandwich, this is where to go! Fresh, delicious sandwiches, the potato salad is awesome too! Staff is friendly. All around, a great place to visit. It has become our regular spot. The Brando Sando is my usual choice and my husbands is the West Coast.

Welp... Sad . My experience was not like others.. maybe it was a mistake or a misunderstanding.The menu is too simple, very little to choose from which would make it difficult to screw up. But it happened.. charged extra and got the as is version. Portion size comparison to price and competition does not match.. this place sandwich size compared to a home style sandwich 🥪not worth the price, competition size is double 🥪🥪 and worth the price. My opinion.I DO NOT GIVE FIVE STAR RATING BECAUSE THERE IS ALWAYS ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT!

Decided to try somewhere not fast food when driving by and this one popped up on Google maps. I love a good sandwich so I stopped in. Menu is simple and concise: Meats, cheese and bread options. No crazy specials or weird sauces. Very friendly and quick, remembered my name through the whole visit and made sure I enjoyed it. Basically like having lunch at Grandmas house. Great place, simple and good sandwich.

Very tasty sandwiches! I called to have a larger catering type order of sandwiches for after an event with my large family. Alexis was incredibly helpful and thorough. I stopped by the day before the delivery to pay; everyone in the shop was kind and friendly. The service is great, but the sandwiches are even better. I got a variety of options on platters and everyone at the event was so pleased they kept asking where the sandwiches came from. I would use them again anytime. I highly suggest giving this local business your patronage.

Small sandwich shop off the beaten path that also offers salads and three breakfast items (breakfast sandwich, burrito, and avocado toast). We tried Brando Sando and the Pastrami as takeout. Both were delicious! Super friendly staff and very clean. We will return.

My wife took to this place, and man Im glad she did. I got a Reuben sandwich and some meatball soup. Both were damn good 👌 specially the soup 🍲, it was delicious. I wished Ive had got the big portion instead of small 😒.The customer service is outstanding. Very helpful staff, very friendly as well . We were greeted as soon as we walked inside and it was the gal at the register the one that recommend the soup 👍, thanks. I will definitely stop by again .

I wish I found this place sooner. Its a little hidden gem located on the other side of the freeway. Staff is very kind from the moment you walk through the door to the moment you pick up your order. I specifically like the food here because it is well portioned and healthy. Even though I get bacon with my sandwich, I dont get it dripping with grease. Thats a plus! I recommend the Ham Turkey sandwich with sprouts. I also recommend that you get that with their homemade Potato salad.

The Brown Bag is a sandwich deli in a sort of industrial area in Palm Desert. It might not be a typical location for a sandwich shop, but their food is delicious! I tried their pastrami sandwich, with a side of macaroni salad. The macaroni salad wasnt necessarily anything spectacular, but the pastrami sandwich was excellent. The Brown Bag uses Boars Head meats and cheeses, which is a plus. Service is quite good and personal as well! The inside is on the smaller side (I counted maybe about 3-4 tables inside). This place seems to be fairly popular in the area, as there was a steady stream of customers during lunch. If I make it to the Palm Desert area again anytime soon, I would visit this place again. I highly recommend this place if youre looking for a sandwich shop in the area.

Top notch joint. I ordered their pastrami sandwich (our way) on rye and a caesar salad, it was delicious. Quality of ingredients were top tier and fresh. Portions were perfect. They offered soda in a can (my preference). Customer service with a smile. And finally, the shop was well kept and clean with sanitizer available for customer use.

Had the pastrami sandwich how we make it and it was one the best Ive had, simple but good. They do use good quality meats and you can taste it. Heard another customer compliment on the home made brownies, later another customer bought out the remaining 3 brownies.

Great little shop, with fresh sandwiches, make sure to try their dill cucumbers. They have homemade iced tea. I tried the Turkey on toasted sourdough. And the veggie on toasted sourdough. I would make them a regular eating spot if I lived there.
