Reviews for The Trough Sandwich Shop in Rancho Santa Margarita, CA

Great little sandwich shop tucked into the corner of the plaza. This was my first visit, but will not be my last. I had heard... they make great sandwiches and I was not disappointed. I had the classic pastrami and it was tasty. So much to choose from,including their breakfast sandwiches, available all day. Read more

Steak and egg breakfast burrito was delicious! Sunny side up eggs were a great touch!

Cheese steak- perfectly toasted roll, plenty of steak. I would of add more cheese. Patty Melt - bread toasted just right, well... balanced sandwich. Both filling Delicious overall !!! Nice staff too ???? Read more

delicious little breakfast and lunch place with a cool vibe and nice employees. they claim to have the best breakfast burritos... and sandwiches in town and I'd agree! I have had the breakfast burrito and it's delicious, you also get to watch them make itright in front of you. this time, I got the caprese (pictured) and my wife got the bowl with chicken. the caprese was crazygood, tons of flavor and juicy and tender chicken on a pumpernickel roll. the bowl was a but lame if I'm honest, not a lot ofvariety of flavor. UPDATE 5/22: third time I've had it in the past year and it's going a touch downhill. remember when thesalsa didn't taste like water? remember when you paid $2.50 for bacon and got more than one slice? remember when the customerservice was way better/employees were friendly? it's still the best breakfast burrito close to us but I wish they'd step theirgame back up Read more

Fantastic food with a large variety of different proteins that can be added into any breakfast burrito or bowl! I will be going... back again to try the lunch options since the breakfast was so good. The tater tots were my favorite as they were made fresh andwere incredibly crispy and delicious. Read more

They have a great selection of sandwiches. I ordered the cheesesteak. It did not take long to receive the sandwich after I... placed my order. Everything tasted fresh, and I particularly liked how each ingredient on the sandwich did not overpower theother. Even the cornmeal roll was a nice touch. The only reason I take one star off is because the sandwich was really greasy,which was mentioned in other reviews. Read more

If you want a better Pastrami Sandwich go to Board & Brew down the street. Let?s be clear, this was not premium pastrami. Not... only was it over cooked, almost to the point of shoe leather, but I kept pulling out what I can only describe as tendon. Longchewy bits like they cooked it with a rubber band on it. Almost inedible! Read more

The service was quick and no-nonsense efficient. The sandwiches were okay. Then, what's wrong with me? Well, the question is... what's wrong with the food? Too darn greasy. I think I can eat this maybe once a year or so. Even the food without any cheesewere dripping in grease. I'll be back next year... Read more
