Backstreet Sandwiches ·$$

We cook and cut our meat in our on-site kitchen, daily. The bread is baked fresh in town and delivered, 5 days / week. All ingredients are locally purchased! We are famous for deli style sandwiches, hot roast beef, pastrami and corned beef, as well as cold turkey, ham & tuna salad. Your sandwiches come with a choice of a side dish (baked beans, potato salad, coleslaw or chips.) The potato salad is grandma's recipe. We make the dessert here on site. Our fresh banana creme pie is a customer favorite. Available salads include spinach salad (craisins, pistachios, and shaved parmesan cheese with raspberry vinaigrette dressing) or Cesar salad, both available with meat, as an add-on. Don't forget to stop at the veggie cart, included with your meal! 45 years of relaxing garden, patio dining sets us apart from any other dining establishment in Riverside! We do have indoor seating for approx. 60 and outdoors we can seat 120. Venue rental is available upon request. We look forward to seeing you on your next visit!

Very quaint neighborhood sandwich place in the courtyard of a former residential property. The service is very friendly and the food is prepared in front of you. There is no indoor seating but...

I really wanted to like this place, but it didn't do it for me. I thought they would have more of variety of sandwiches like Upper Crust or Simple Simon's, but they don't. The sandwiches don't...
