Situated in the back of 100-year-old Star Grocery, we are a small (but mighty) full service butcher shop and delicatessen. Sarah, an Oakland native, and Nick, a transplant from New Jersey, have worked…
I'm picky about my sandwiches, so saying Star Meats has probably the best I've ever had means a lot. They don't chase Instagram trends, they just make classic, Italian-inspired sandwiches on fresh La Farine bread with high-quality meats, cheeses, and veggies. These are the sandwiches I wake up craving when I'm away.
Special commendation to the Godfather, my all-time favorite. I just wish they served that one every day. One sandwich is enough for two light meals, or one giant meal.

Sandwich was excellent but extremely small for the price, and the lack of any ability to customize is obnoxious.

Best sandwiches in the East Bay, no contest. I've probably had everyone of their sandwiches over the years and they always come up with and continue to have great flavor combinations.
