Woodside Delicatessen

Family owned since 1958, serving signature Italian cold cuts and fresh homemade salads with imported specialty products.

Woodside Delicatessen gives Italian deli traditions plenty of room on its Redwood City sandwich menu. The Godfather combines mortadella, salami, coppa, prosciutto, and provolone with artichoke hearts and pepperoncini on sourdough. We like that its bold cold-cut combinations sit alongside house-made hot meatball sandwiches, chicken Parmesan, and a classic corned-beef Reuben. The California Veggie brings Havarti, avocado, sprouts, pesto, garlic spread, and vegetables together on wheat, while the Backyard Tri-Tip pairs smoked beef with pepper Jack, grilled onions, and barbecue sauce on Dutch crunch. Build-your-own sandwiches offer another way to choose. Deli sides include macaroni salad, three-bean salad, coleslaw, and pesto pasta, and imported pantry items add to the shop's character. Woodside Delicatessen is appealing for the small pleasures of a well-matched bread, filling, and side rather than a single one-size-fits-all lunch.
