Sandwich Emporium opened in 1974 in the Clairemont district of San Diego.
Local San Diegans John and Peter Le, along with their wife Angela, bought their childhood sandwich store in 2004. Our goal is …
Ordered the Tuna Melt, because like the SDSU hoops team it's a winner! The Greek, as well as all their salads, have fresh ingredients, crunchy greens, and tasty dressings. The Emporium is a Bayhill gem

One of my favorite sandwich places in SD! Good pricing for a good size sandwich. I highly recommend the Saigon Grinder. I get it almost every time

The Beefsteak Filipino was more French Dip in flavor profile than it was divergent. More marinating time needed for the meat itself; the condiments overpowered any notes of citrus (calamansi, if properly done) or soy in the roast beef.
Some thoughts: Consider no cheese or mayo. Keep the onions, add atchara. Experiment with dipping sauces and maybe treat this as a Filipino Dip? Enhance the Filipino side of the dish! Vinegar is desperately needed somewhere, and if it isn't in the marinade, it should come from the condiments.
The Mediterranean Greek salad was decent. Right amount of feta and kalamata.
