  A special hidden treasure within an industrial office park near Smith Ranch Road,
  
  I go for the obvious - The Sub Hut special ($8.95) - but it is a BIG Boy portion, so save the second half for later in the afternoon.
  
  Cool dining area with plenty of TV's, Pacific Sun's and silent space if you need it.  You've got to love LJ's!

  I made my first visit to L.J.'s Deli San Rafael to cash in a free sandwich card (handed out to businesses in the neighborhood). I ordered the Subhut which the owner, Kaity (very pleasant), said they had been serving for 50 years(!). Once I tasted it, I understood why - layers of flavor and texture that you can almost experience just by looking at it. Too bad I missed out for 46 years (my whole life in Marin), but I hope to enjoy it for the next half century.
  
  LJ's is secluded within an office park (like other hidden gems in Marin), but there are signs to direct customers. I will definitely be back to try more offerings from their extensive sandwich menu with economical prices. It will be hard not to order the Subhut again...will bring my husband (he's actually the one who works nearby) and order two sandwiches to share on a lunch break date.

  Terra Linda has limited food options,  so i was delighted by my healthy, yummy meal at LJ's!
  This place is located in an office park, near the back.
  I had the "tuna salad salad". All of the ingredients were fresh and the portion size was great for the price.
  I noticed that they have a wide assortment of sandwiches and salads (maybe 10 of each) and the staff was friendly and accommodating.
  Bonus- they have updated, air conditioned patio with a beautiful mural. Wonderful place to eat my delicious lunch!
  What a gem! My new spot!

  So I was down in Petaluma today for work and I was starving and wanted a sandwich. I looked on Yelp and try to find a good sandwich place I found LG is and I decided to choose it. Parking is pretty difficult as you have to park on the street and then walk up or you can park in the parking lot.
  
  You walk in and the place is pretty big with indoor seating as well as an outdoor patio that is covered with couches other comfortable furniture. I ordered the special of the day which was the pastrami. I got it without tomatoes and it was delicious if you check in on yelp you get a free bag of kettle chips which were a good touch to the sandwich. Flor was very nice and super friendly, I will definitely come back sometime and get another sandwich and be sure to say hello to her!

  Love LJ's! It's such a quaint local deli that has super friendly staff, a decent menu selection, and good food! Also, you can order online and save tons of time!
  
  It's a little tough to find if you don't know exactly where it is. It's in an office park off Redwood Hwy, so I typically park across the street from Westamerica Back. Every time I walk in, I am greeted with a smile. Many times they remember me from a prior order and have a good guess about what I ordered or am about to order.
  
  They have a pretty great selection for breakfast, too. There just isn't a lot in the area in terms of quick, cheap (and tasty) breakfast, but you can get a pretty amazing breakfast sandwich or croissant at LJ's. It's a pretty big sandwich, so come hungry.
