Introduction

At Deli Nerds, we believe great catering starts with great ingredients—and a whole lot of heart. We stand out because we do things differently: seed oils used in our kitchen, no shortcuts, no compromise on quality. Every dish we serve is made from scratch using grass-fed meats, wild-caught seafood, farmers market produce, and house-made sauces and dressings. We specialize in nutrient-dense, flavor-packed meals that leave your guests nourished and impressed. Whether you’re feeding a corporate team, hosting a private event, or planning a weekly meal program, we tailor our menus with care and deliver with professionalism. Customers hire us because we care about what goes on your plate—and it shows in every bite. Clean, elevated catering that makes you feel as good as it tastes.

Absolutely love Deli Nerds! Their food is exceptional. Not only is it fresh, it is delicious! They have a wide range of selections for any meal whether its breakfast, lunch or dinner. Professional, knowledgeable staff, and warm friendly environment. Their diverse menu will satisfy anyones cravings! Looking forward to having my next holiday meal catered by them! They also deliver, and their drivers are very prompt, and efficient. Your food arrives in insulated bags so it is either hot or cold depending on your items. Also depending on your catering needs they will also setup your food that always comes with serving utensils, plasticware, plates and napkins! This place is a 10!

Came across this place during the OC restaurant week launch and stoked I did! Not just sandwiches, they have bowls and the full menu, as well as catering and meal prep. The new banh mi sliders were so yummy. Went to the store and got a kebab plate - I want that garlic sauce in jar form for purchase. I would prefer enough of a supply that I can bathe in the garlic sauce, actually. Bruschetta was on point (bread was crunchy, if you're a soft bread person) as a side and I ordered the mediterranean chicken kabob plate and loved it - the tabbouleh? dill quinoa dish thing and tzatziki were both perfect! Not too strong on the flavors or overpowering dill in the tabbouleh. Pitas were super soft and rice was great. I also ordered a classic slider sampler - and can't say anything about it, since my dude inhaled all of his sliders without giving me any feedback.

Deli Nerds's reply

Hi Vanessa! Thank you so much for this amazing review! We’re thrilled you found us during OC Restaurant Week and even more excited that you explored so much of our menu! Your garlic sauce feedback officially made our day—we’ll take the “bathe in it” comment as the highest compliment 😄 We’ve had a few requests to bottle it, and you just might convince us to make it happen! Also, big thanks for the shoutout on the banh mi sliders, bruschetta, and that dill quinoa/tabbouleh hybrid—we’re so glad the flavors hit the right balance for you. As for the slider sampler... we’ll forgive your dude this time, but only if you come back for a second round and claim your share! 😆 Can’t wait to have you back again soon—your energy and appreciation mean a lot to our whole team. Warmly, Tina tina@delinerds.com
