D'Anna's Deli

A little hidden gem packed away in a Redwood Grove off of Hwy 1. They're slinging delicious sandwiches in this little hut, and they were extremely accommodating with requests and very helpful! I'd be back weekly if I didn't live 1,000 miles away!

I’ve loved the Palm Deli for years! I’m a local and my favourite treat of the day is running up to the corner to have the Palm Deli Staff make me a nice, fresh little pick-me-up mocha. So delicious!! Not to mention their meal menu is incredible.

Cool aquarium and local faire.

Amazing breakfast burrito, great cup of coffee, and friendly service. They have a lot to offer inside and seriously one of the best breakfast burritos I've ever had. Stumbled upon this place on our honeymoon and went out of our way to come back the next day just because we liked it to much.

Awesome curation of deli snacks, sweets, drinks, sauces, etc. Great sandwiches and breakfast items with a personable family run flair. Walk up coffee bar or custom espresso option too. Wish I was a local so I could come here more often.

It was my first time there. I very much enjoyed it. Very friendly people, good menu variety, build your own sandwiches, icecream...and all day breakfast. I had an awesome BLT with avocado. You can eat inside or outside among the redwoods on picnic tables. You can even bring your dog. Very nice quiet setting.

Got the palm burrito, and it was Amazing!!! Love that it has bell peppers, black beans and finished with a panini press. Would visit again

In Santa Cruz it’s really hard to find local fresh food and this is my go to breakfast place first I got a Paleo bowl the second time I came I got a Mexican breakfast burrito with a smoothie this place is hands-down one of the best food places If you’re looking for a fast meal no sit down. Also I find myself going to the beach in Aptos a lot and it just has the easy accessible snacks the customer service is super great it’s ran by a very nice family which I got to know over the weeks by being a regular. I’m super happy about the new ownership it seems like the menu is upgraded in a very good way!

Should be called The Redwood Cottage's Deli

Nice little deli offering 2 vegetarian panini options. Garlic mushrooms panini is really delicious. They have few more vegetarian sandwich options.

They were patient and helpful with complex dietary restrictions. And they made a good tasting meal.

Super friendly costumer service good food

Stellar breakfast burrito bigger than my head. Partner had a phenomenal Portabello mushroom panini. Bonus of a cute friendly orange cat out on the patio. Worth the stop!

Loved my experience at The Palm Deli. I got a reuben from the counter, which was lovely, and for a reasonable price. It was definitely busy, which meant it took a bit to get the sandwiches, but it's worth the wait!

Love this place! I stop by almost every time I’m in Aptos. The vegetarian breakfast burrito is one of my favorite veggie breakfasts in the area. I’m also a big fan of their paninis—anything with palm sauce is especially delicious. Staff are friendly and professional as well.

Got the double smash burger with grilled onion and cheese with the special aoli and am very impressed it was the best stop I made for food in Santa Cruz!

I have been a customer for over 5 years at this location. The food is always consistent and the staff are very detailed oriented with orders. I really appreciate their swift service as someone who frequents during lunch hours & on weekends.

Been coming here for years! It is definitely one of my favorite places to eat and grab snacks. I love this place. My go-to is BLAT and a Mexican mocha 😍

The ITS breakfast burrito at this place was bigger heavier, and I dare say the best breakfast burrito I’ve ever had. It was loaded with potatoes, avocados, eggs, cheese, and several types of meat. Something else that stood out was the hot salsa, which was extremely hot, but also had a wonderful flavor. This is my favorite breakfast place moving forward in the area.

I ordered a meatloaf, special sandwich and it was amazing. Staff was friendly. I would eat here again

Pricey but huge breakfast burritos. Easily enough for breakfast and lunch. Coffee is usually very good but a few times it's been too weak. Great alternative if the other nearby coffee joint is too busy. Friendly staff and lots of very good fresh food. Their sandwiches are excellent.

Great lunch spot for your sandwich cravings. They have a coffee bar, serve gelato, smoothies, and have decent snacks and drinks, including local wine by the bottle for take away. Everything is pretty delicious and satisfying. It is a little on the pricy side, the staff are friendly (they are all pretty young, like highschool/early college age), the service can be slow sometimes, but it's a very popular lunch spot for the nearby businesses and school kids.

We had a good panini and they have a great ‘Booch selection. None of us liked the soup (corn and clam chowder) but no big loss, just tossed it.

Their sandwiches are a little pricey and have had better elsewhere however they make great smoothies and will go back for those for sure. Cute out of the way with patio and small seating area inside. Nice aquarium with big colorful fish. Next time want to try their breakfast...looks delish.

Every deli sandwich I've ordered has been really good. Recently went and I ordered a burrito, would not recommend it. Way too much rice, very little El pastor overall very bland. My colleague got the hamburger and fries, not to be ordered again. As a deli it's awesome, the other menu items-not so much.

The island Reuben sandwich and was delicious. Girl at counter was pretty rude when I asked a question about the menu. Customer service needs improvement.

It’s hit or miss. I got the wrong meat in my burrito.gotten sandwiches with no issue. But the food was ok. Very nice inside.

Formerly Known as "Piggy's Market" the location in Redwood Village is cool. Fun to get a breakfast burrito and stoll around the village..let's say unfortunately the Palm Deli 🌴 itself seems to be hurting . Dark inside, hot and humid? Also, fairly $$$ . I'd suggest a quick stop in for take out or cup of coffee , bear claw? Then hit the road to the beaches and beautiful Vista's nearby. 🙏🙏🙏

I love this little deli. I just want to say got a bean & cheese burrito as i always do and they have changed it. Whole beans instead of re-fried beans. also the green salsa is different .Not a fan. Please make the burritos like you used to they were so good! Thank you for being such a great little place for lunch.

The place is really cute and based on the reviews, we thought we'd get some really great food. I had the potato soup, which costs $10, and it was rancid. They gave me a refund, but the sheer fact that a bowl of soup even costs that much in the first place is ridiculous. I expected it to be some seriously gourmet potato soup, and it was absolutely disgusting. The staff tried it too and agreed with me. The staff themselves were great, but I just can't see myself going there again after this experience.

Unfortunately, this place has gone downhill under new ownership in 2022. They have messed up my sandwich order 3 times -- the same way each time, even when I told the 2nd two times specifically what happened before! On the plus side, someone told me they have a good new burrito menu that might be worth trying.

Ordered a simple breakfast burrito, waited 30+ minutes for it while watching people who ordered after me get their multiple orders. Opened the foil to my "burrito" (it was squished) and the burrito which they cut in half was falling completely apart. Was pretty disappointed in my visit and wouldn't recommend. :(

Called in a phone order for one sandwich and one salad, was told 10-15 minutes. Came a half hour later and STILL had to wait another half hour. Total of one hour. There were 5-6 people working, nobody else in line, and only 3 sandwich orders were filled in that time. Everyone was on their phone and not working. Then the sandwich was a total disaster. Prices were 30%+ higher than the website. Dumpster fire of a place to get food. Live down the street, and will never come back.

It seems like The Point Market bought the Palm Deli… Came in today bought 2 breakfast burritos and a smoothie. Got food poisoning from eating their breakfast burritos. It seems like they sold me an old Palm Deli burrito because the Point Market doesn’t panini their burritos. So I knew this burrito was old when I got home and took a few bites out of it. Really disappointed of the new ownership. Not worth paying $30 just to get food poisoning.

Even though I was willing to pay for the whole egg... their "policy" prevented them from separating the yolks from the whites for me (siting cost effectiveness). So... if you have high cholesterol and are in the mood for eggs, do not go to The Palm for breakfast.

Unfortunately I haven’t been back since the new ownership. The same order I have had for over 7+ years was not the same. The green salsa was delicious but it’s no longer the same. The glaumlette instead of hash browns had mashed tater tots that were dark brown and hard. So sad they were very nice and tried to make it again but to no avail.

Sunday July 21st, 2:15pm, just got home with my takeout and the "muffaleta" has no olives! I ordered it as on the menu. The menu has too many options if the kitchen staff does not know all the recipes. Two thumbs way down.

40 dollars for 2 sandwiches and 2 bags of chips. It was NOT worth it. My bread was DRY. There was 2 slices of cheap, Oscar Meyer level Pastrami. This is not a good thing. The cheese was hard at the corners as though it was left out too long or was stale. The Palm sauce only made it worse. Either the sandwich maker quit this morning because Sunday was their revenge shift or the quality is intended to be bad. I guess I am supposed to just accept terrible food at high prices? NO.

The food has recently changed, and not for the better. I ordered the glaumlette which I used to love. What came was a low quality version and tasted terrible - tater tots instead of pan fried potatoes / potato hash, super greasy, and old tasting bacon. Wondering if there was a change of owners or something? Wish they’d just change the menu instead of using previous one. I will not be ordering from them again if all the food is now like this.

Place smelled like marijuana bad , poor customer service, food was ok , charged us for a drink we did not receive, then had attitude about it when we asked for the drink . i can see how messy the kitchen was from the front as well .
