Italian Deli

Just met up with a client in Westlake and exited Topanga Canyon thinking where can I eat right now and I remembered there's this amazing sub place in the valley I'm not really a bread fan or deli but this spot is fersure one of the BEST Deli around the area! They have fantastic customer service as well. Don't be intimidated by the white bald dude in the cashier, he might look ferocious at first but he's a really nice guy and gentle. We ended up having a great conversation actually lol On that note, I highly recommend this place to everyone :)

Highly recommended from my frIEnds at FitStop-Woodland Hills. Warm welcome and awesome family. Had the club super sub, loaded. No cheese no pepperoncini. Might be the BEST bacon I have ever had

The prosciutto sandwich is insanely good!! Could eat that every week. They don’t have a lot of room to eat at the shop, but is quite easy to do takeout and eat at home or at your car.

I know the photo doesn't do it justice, but OH MY GOD, what delicious food! My husband has been eating these since his 20s,(22 years ago) now I understand why, they're simply very good.

Finally gotta chance to check the place out after all of these years. Heard about the joint from friends and family who've stopped in on their way to the beach. The wife and I decided to stop in this time around thanks to an inspirational Tic-Toc video. Immediately upon entering we were hit with the most delicious smells! The place was a fully functioning italian deli shop. The wife ordered the Italian Cold cut, Loaded, on a crusty roll. I went with the Big Italian, Loaded on a crusty roll as well. We also got a couple of Cannoli, one chocolate and one with sprinkles. Fantastic!!! And a box of Italian cookies. The service was fast and friendly. Our sandwiches were epic! Our Cannoli, Perfectly crunchy! Needless to say, we will be coming back for more! Got my eye on the "Al Capone". Till next time Ciricca's... we'll be seeing ya soon😉

These Italian subs are sooo good! We ordered The Godfather and Patty's Melt both loaded and on crusty roll, delicious! They also have platters, party subs and more. The service is okay but could be friendlier. The food makes up for it all though, very satisfying. We ordered by phone and our order was ready when we arrived, no wait time is a plus. Definitely recommend.

Cricco’s Italian Deli and Subs on Topanga Canyon is a true gem, a place that feels like home the moment you step through the door. This family-run spot has earned its placeivel as a beloved staple in the community, and it’s easy to see why. Their dedication to quality and loyalty to their customers shine through in every bite and every warm interaction. The Reuben sandwich is hands-down one of my all-time favorites—perfectly stacked with corned beef, tangy sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, and just the right smear of Thousand Island dressing, all grilled to perfection. And don’t get me started on the pastrami—it’s tender, flavorful, and packed with that smoky, spiced goodness that keeps me coming back. Every sandwich is crafted with care, using fresh ingredients that make each bite unforgettable. What sets Cricco’s apart, though, is their heart. The team treats you like family, remembering your order and greeting you with genuine smiles. A special shout-out to Courtney, whose warmth and hustle make every visit even better—she’s a rock star! Cricco’s isn’t just a deli; it’s a cornerstone of the neighborhood, a place where locals gather, stories are shared, and everyone leaves a little happier. If you haven’t been, go. Your taste buds and your heart will thank you.

If you are craving a meatball sub. This is where you wanna go. The sandwich was a bit expensive considering it is just one sandwich but they definitely make sure you get your money’s worth. The meatball sub was absolutely massive. Not only was this sandwich filling but it was also amazing. Bread, meat and cheese is already a pretty unbeatable combination but the way they assembled these ingredients is a true work of art. 5/5 highly recommend.

Best little deli in Topanga! Fast and kind service. The place is clean. It has tables to dine in. No restrooms available for costumers. Fair prices. They use Boar’s head meats. Accessible for wheelchairs. The club super sub was delicious and big enough for 2 of us to eat.

Super delicious sandwiches with big portions. Bread was super fresh and soft and ingredients were well proportioned. Cannoli was a yummy treat after the sandwich. Will definitely be back!

I love this place. I’ve been coming here for actually 20 years since I was eight years old. I’m a caregiver and I bring my purse. I take care of here every Saturday and love it very much. I love their tuna Alba corn melts or their Godfather sandwich.

The sandwiches are great. The Godfater loaded on a the baguette style bread is a must. The people working there are very friendly and helpful. I think we found our favorite sub place. Need to try the hot pastrami next

I went to college in Phila. and for four years sampled a lot of hoagies. Then I hunted them down in NYC, Pennsylvania, and L.A. I just had my first one (no. 12, the Italian Cold Cut) at Cricca's, and it was phenomenal. I was in the neighborhood, but even though I live about 40 minutes away, I may have to bite that bullet and go back.

Excellent subs at this fantastic Italian deli. We ordered two specialty subs and a hot sub for lunch. I called the order in and by the time we arrived (15 min) it was ready for pickup. Total was $54 after tax for the two specialaty subs, and the large hot sub. The place was super busy on Sunday afternoon, i highly recommend calling your orders in. The menu on their website is easy to navigate. We got The Destroyer, a Ruben Sub, and a Hot Pastrami. The ingredients were fresh, with the perfect amount of seasoning. The veggies and cold cuts in the Destroyer were top quality and the sub was neatly assembled. The bread was fresh, soft, and delicious. The Ruben sub was great, although i prefer my kraut to be a bit more sour, it ended up being a tad on the sweet side with the dressing on the sandwich. The Hot Pastrami was delicious. Every sandwich had a generous portion of meats. Half a sandwich will easily fill you up. We had leftovers from each sandwich so got to enjoy them twice. The leftovers kept well in the fridge for a few hours. This place is way better than Caverettas and will be my go to Italian sub place from now on. They are 10 min further away from my house than Caverettas, but well worth the drive. Absolutely worth the visit, even if it's out of the way. Best Italian style sandwich deli in the san Fernando Valley.

Food: Cricca’s makes what might be the best Italian cold cut sub on a crunchy roll I’ve ever had. It’s the kind of sub that keeps you coming back. That said, they’ve got a solid variety of both hot and cold subs, and everything I’ve tried has been consistently great. The bread is seriously next-level—each bite has this satisfying crunch that makes the whole thing that much better. Price: It’s not the cheapest sub shop out there, but the prices are totally in line with other delis in the area. For the portion size and quality, it’s more than fair. Ambiance: Classic, no-frills deli feel. It’s a casual, friendly place with a nice little selection of market items if you want to pick up something extra. Just a great neighborhood spot. Service: Always friendly and efficient. Even when it gets busy, they move quickly and get the orders right. You can tell they’ve been doing this a long time. Location/Parking: Located in a shopping strip on the corner of Dumetz and Topanga Canyon. Tons of free parking, which makes the whole experience super convenient—especially if you’re in a rush. Overall: I’ve been coming to Cricca’s for years and genuinely love supporting this place. The subs are top-tier, the service is reliable, and it’s one of those spots that never lets you down.

Great sandwiches. Friendly staff. Wonderful owner (shoutout to Kevin). Cannot recommend this place enough.

One of the best kept secrets in the valley! Some of the best sandwiches you can find! Love this place! Don't order from the apps, order directly from the restaurant as the apps charge more. Cricca's is the best! Hot sandwiches, cold sandwiches, paninins. So many options!

The food was good. It took a very long time getting our hot subs. We ordered online 40 minutes before arriving and waited another 15 minutes when we arrived.

I enjoyed my sub from Cricca's. On a Friday, during lunch tim, the deli was pretty busy - which is usually a great sign that you're at a high quality place. I didn't have to wait more than 10 minutes after ordering for my sandwich. The menu has a large variety of options, but I wish items that are vegetarian were more clearly marked (I could only see 2 options initially). I ordered the Caprese Panini, which was great. The ingredients were all fresh (mozzarella, basil and tomatoes). Also would be nice to know if they have special combo prices with chips and a drink.
