Gus's Subs & Pizza: Your Destination for Hearty Subs, Delicious Pizza, and Family-Friendly Fun!

Gus’s how I love you! I thought you were lost forever when you closed on Rosecrans in Point Loma. Then I find out 10 years later you had a SECOND location in La Mesa?!? I flew all the way from Texas just for your pastrami sandwich when I found out! And you did not disappoint. You even brought the cook from the Point Loma location and the taste has not changed. The pastrami is so good, melts in your mouth good. Mozzarella cheese completely mixed through the stack of pastrami. The bread, mozzarella, pastrami, and mustard give it this great sweet and salty crunch that is unmatched! All time favorite pastrami sandwich in the world! I’d steal from my dead grandma just to eat that sandwich. Zero complaints zero negative comments. Gorgeous street views chill atmosphere service is out of this world. The best and most friendliest staff ever! Gus’s is the place to be for authentic SD food! The pizza is pretty great too.

I FOUND BREAKFAST FRIED POTATOES AT GUS'S! Folks I've been trying to find a decent American breakfast since I moved to San Diego in 2010. I have routinely been disappointed with the fried potatoes. Today I discovered that you can order the home fries here and you can simply ask them to remove the onions or the Bell peppers. Which I did with the onions in this photo. I also could have asked for them to be well done. I highly recommend this place for breakfast. It seems to have a handful of locals in here on a Friday morning. Wait staff is friendly and very competent and I found it to be very clean. The food was served hot the beverages were served cold what else can you ask for?

Hidden Gem in La mesa one of the best Philly cheesesteaks I have had and definitely the biggest this thing was HUGE I mean HUGE they definitely dont skimp on the food the meat was delicious perfect seasoning great cheese ratio I got the 12 inch and it would definitely feed two people the French fries were good service was outstanding plenty of parking definitely should try this place this was my first time here next time I will try the pastrami sandwich

I love this place for breakfast with Mom near by. Ample senior menu and servers that rise to meet the needs. So busy taking care of diners needs, you may need to wait a minute or two for the table to clear but they're working! Great waffles, pancakes, omelettes. I cant wait to actually try a sub!

I was craving a good sandwich and decided to try this spot out after seeing some pictures online. I am glad I did! I ordered the footlong philly cheeesesteak sandwich with fries. Wow, this is a great combination of quality and quantity. There was plenty of meat, cheese, onions, and mushrooms. The bun was perfectly toasted as well. You will not leave hungry! Gus's has plenty of seating, and there is ample parking. The lady at the counter was very friendly and the restaurant feels like a cozy diner. I will be back for some more sandwich or pizza deliciousness. This is a hidden gem if you are not familiar with the area. Eat up!!

Great sandwich! reminds me of the one I get in LA. I will be back. Oh the large was big enough to share.

PASTRAMI!!! One of the best PASTRAMI sandwiches I've ever had! This place is great. Huge portions. The staff is nice and respectful. Restaurant is always clean also. I come here every chance I get.

I got the pastrami sandwich and the Greek salad. Food is fire!!! Not to mention it was PACKED!!!! A very good sign!! Will definitely be going back!! It also helped that my server was also a fellow Chargers fan!!
