Every once in a while, you get a hankering for something different, yet familiar — a craving that only a good deli sandwich will satisfy. The next time your belly nudges, be sure to hit up Billy’s Meat, Seafood & Deli in San Clemente for a delicious, piled-high masterpiece.

Billy’s tagline: “a cut above the rest,” aptly describes its commitment to offering only the finest product selection to its loyal following. Established in 1990, Billy’s is a local fave, long-admired for its reliably authentic deli offerings and full-service butcher shop, purveying high quality meats including black angus steak, fresh seafood and a generous selection of spices, marinades and dry rubs. To complete your meal, check out Billy’s side dishes, such as the classic potato salad and a Mediterranean Greek, loaded with cucumbers, tomatoes, olives, feta cheese and bell peppers.

The sandwich makers at Billy’s are skilled artisans, building handcrafted deli-style sandwiches with generous portions of meat, cheeses and veggies. To say these sandwiches are huge is an understatement. Along with Boar’s Head products, Billy’s also offers an array of its own roasted and smoked roast beef, pulled pork, shredded chicken, and meatballs along with 30+ entrées and side selections that deliver a one-stop shopping experience. With such an endless variety of made-to-order sandwiches, it’s difficult to choose just one.

The popular Turkey Avo is overflowing with roasted turkey, provolone cheese, avocado, lettuce, tomato, pickle, red onion, mayo, yellow mustard, and served on soft squaw bread. The Poor Boy is your classic sub, heaving with ham, mortadella, salami, provolone, mayo, deli mustard, lettuce, tomato, pickle, onion, pepperoncinis and Italian dressing on a French roll. And, yes,  even in beachy South Orange County, you can find a good Ruben — it’s at Billy’s. The Best Ruben Ever features corned beef, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut, 1,000 island dressing, generously layered between two slices of grilled rye. “Now, That’s a Meatball” is your traditional Italian staple, made with hand-made meatballs and served hot with tangy marinara sauce, melted mozzarella cheese and pepperoncinis — on a warm, French roll. Delizioso!

The next time you’re hosting an event, consider Billy’s catering menu which offers a selection of crowd pleasers for any size gathering. Walk in and peruse the vast deli and specialty items or order online. Billy’s is open daily from 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. (5 p.m. on Sundays — closed Mondays).
