The M Stop Deli leans all the way into its name: sandwiches are named for MUNI train lines, the menu is designed like vintage transit tickets, and a row of old seats sits by the chip rack as a nod to the theme. Past the decor, the format is straightforward — halal meats like slow-smoked beef tri-tip, chicken, turkey, and pastrami, piled heavy enough to round the sandwich out, dressed with house-made garlic spread and BBQ sauce. The 54 adds chipotle sauce to slow-smoked chicken, the J-Line pairs chicken with roasted tomato marinara and mozzarella, and the 91 Owl is built on an all-beef hot link. Bread options include a dutch crunch roll with a light sugar crust that holds up under the fillings without turning soggy.
