Ray's Delicatessen & Tavern

A Bar and a sandwich counter with an old-time petaluma feel. Very popular with locals. We shared a very tasty roasted turkey club. People at the sandwich counter were quite pleasant. We sat indoors, but there was outdoor seating.

My partner and I were in the area. He had gone to high school here and wanted to take me to try Ray's for a while. The staff was welcoming and the options on the menu were diverse. I got the Turkey Avocado Special and it was absolutely delicious - for sure one of the best sandwiches I've had and I don't really eat turkey in sandwiches that often either. Parking was manageable considering it was peak lunch time.

The food, selection and seating was all fabulous. I was not expecting all the variety and delicious menu options available. Come and sit outside with your dog or friends or both and enjoy the food, weather and company. It's like Cheers but with more outdoor seating. Best sandwich I've had in a while and definately the best Deli in Petaluma!

Great place for sammiches. Residential neighborhood vibe. Nice outdoor patio with umbrellas. Our dogs were welcome. Sandwiches were very fresh and hearty, and the served with a smile.

First time here, and now after trying food from Ray's, as a native Petaluman, I'm shaking my own head...I mean timing is everything, I know this, and yet it took me this long (*I hold out my arms really wide*) to try, why is that??? Hands down, and up 🙌 one of the best warmed up turkey-avocado sandwiches I've had in a long time, recommended to add aoli. Well balanced in flavors!
