La Papaya Deli

Crema's Take
“Tucked away in Las Vegas, this deli excels at the perfect balance of speed and soul—whether you're grabbing a quick blended coffee or settling in for a leisurely afternoon with a beautiful crepe and panini. The staff genuinely takes pride in their craft, whipping up fresh, generously-sized sandwiches and vibrant smoothies that keep regulars coming back, while their creative specialty drinks and quality pastries make it equally appealing for lingering conversations over coffee. It's the kind of place where you feel welcomed from the moment you walk in, whether you're fueling up post-workout or treating yourself to a proper sit-down meal.”

Lovely place and I was greeted kindly, my crepe was delicious and looked beautiful. The blended coffees were also very yummy.
We came here do a late lunch around 3pm. Really tasty food and came out really fast, practically no wait. I got the chicken pesto panini, which was delicious. They were kind enough to allow me to make some changes to the sandwich, adding lettuce and removing onions and cheese. Comes with a nice small serving of potato chips on the side. The panini bread was soft and perfectly grilled, and they served it with generous grilled chicken and pesto sauce. Yum! My husband got the Hawaiian Torta and the Berry Banana power shake. The shake was not too sweet and was refreshing. All in all, I would definitely come back. Felt wholesome and tasty. I would say the only downfall is it smelled a bit strongly of cleaning solution (but at least that means it’s clean!) which is not very appetizing. But honestly, that wouldn’t deter me from coming back. Overall, 5 stars! :)
I really appreciate this location; the customer service is consistently excellent, and the drinks and food are always enjoyable. I often stop by for a protein smoothie after my gym sessions. The small patio is too cute.
We stopped in on a whim for dinner and loved it here! The staff was so nice and clearly so proud of their work. Sandwiches were fantastic, giant, and cheap. As was the hot chocolate! Definitely stop in or order take out!
This spot is absolutely clutch after a workout. Me and my girl come here on the regular for smoothies—sometimes with protein, sometimes without—and they always hit. Super fresh, packed with flavor, and you can tell they use quality ingredients (you can literally see the bananas and pineapples stacked up behind the counter like they just got delivered). They’ve got amazing breakfast and lunch options too—avocado toast, crepes, sandwiches… all fire. Food comes out looking like it’s ready for a photoshoot and tastes even better. The place itself is super clean, with good vibes, dope decor, and friendly staff who actually seem to care. It’s bright, welcoming, and never too crowded when we come through. Whether you’re pulling up post-gym or just want a legit, healthy meal or smoothie, La Papaya Deli is where it’s at. One of those hidden gems that deserves way more hype.
