Tess's Place | VegetarianTurkey Sandwich - Loma Linda, CA

Tess's Place
25875 Barton Rd, Ste. 105
Loma Linda, CA 92354

I've found a good sandwich/dessert place in SoCal (recommended by my practicum supervisor). had this vegetarian turkey sandwich, a tuna salad sandwich, and a real turkey sandwich, and I really liked all three, although I'm not a fan of that fake turkey stuff (the rest on that plate was good). The texture was like turkey trying to morph into bologna, and the flavor was just kinda mehh. The pasta salad was good. The sundried tomatoes weren't over-powering like they can sometimes be, and the dressing was not too salty or sour, which is a huge plus for me. I don't have pictures of this, but I LOVE their kalamata olive bread. Made fresh daily. Seriously...so good. Sliced thick and fluffy...delicious. Their pickles are pretty good too, although they are still a few notches below the pickles from The Daily Grill, which aren't sour at all (Note: I don't like sour pickles). Their big selection of amazing-looking desserts was impressive too. I've only had a bite of their blackberry-topped cheesecake, but that was good to me! I want to try other things for sure. Check out pictures of their food on Yelp here. I wanna try one of their meat-dipping sandwiches.


Figured I should post an up-close picture of the wannabe turkey:
