My husband and I ate lunch at Compagno's during our last visit to Monterey. We split a full turkey sandwich and it was plenty of food for both of us. Definitely stop by if you are in town! More

This little deli market is one of my favorite places for a GOOD sandwich on the go. Very nice meats and home made sauces that will make your mouth water More

Everything everyone wrote it true. We stopped to get sandwiches for our trip to the State Reserve. My husband declared it the best turkey (and biggest and he only got a half) sandwich he ever had. I opted for more of an italian style. The flat bread was fresh, filled with veggies, the owner was personable and knew everyone who... More

Hot & cold sandwiches are very good. A whole sandwich is 2-4 meals for me & 1-2 meals for my hungry teenage son. I get him #1 the club with roast beef, turkey & ham. Many sandwich options, different breads & cheeses. I also like Bennett's old fashioned soda pops-huckleberry is a favorite. Don't forget the cakes & cheesecake. My... More

We were kind of unsure of the place when we got there but we were so pleased with our choice. This is a tiny deli in residential area close to the entry to 17 mile drive. The sandwiches are amazing. Even the so called "half" sandwich is huge, the size of a regular "full" sandwich. The full sandwich option could... More

Pretty tasty sandwiches-- although not a lot of veggie options. My fiance and I sampled the two that exist; I got the veggie sandwich (with the sprouts, avocado, mushrooms, and bell peppers), with gouda and made the mistake of asking for no mayo... fresh mushrooms definitely call for some mayo! Luckily, I asked for some on the side and added... More

Their sandwiches are fantastic! They offer a variety of fresh breads and cold cuts. Their salads are really good as well and their deserts are fabulous. Their carrot cake is my favorite and it's huge. You can order a 1/2 or whole sandwich. We order the 1/2 and eat 1/2 for lunch and 1/2 for dinner. The portions are really... More

I went to Compagno's purely on recommendations from Trip Advisor and am so glad I did. You would never find this place if you didn't know about it, as it is not on the Monterey tourist trail. We headed there to get sandwiches for a picnic we planned to have along the coast near Big Sur, as we headed south... More
