Elijah's, San Diego

Though perhaps known best for its catering, Elijah’s also serves its New York-style deli cuisine at its restaurant along with bringing it to customers. The deli staff builds sky-high and overstuffed sandwiches with piles of hot corned beef, smoked turkey, or juicy roast beef. They give their eats names such as The Rockefeller Center to remind diners of the time they never went there but ate a delicious sandwich boasting its name.
