Food is good but they REFUSE cash. Credit card only then force the tip screen in your face as they stand there and watch you. Tip fatigue is getting real. (I always tip, but hate the expectation). Good food. Bad experience.

If you want a great sandwich come here the staff is friendly the soups are excellent and definitely don't skip on dessert

15 minutes late. I ordered my salad and sandwich, scheduled it 2 hrs before I came to pick it up and it was 15 min late. This is just not okay for people who have 9-5s and have a certain amount of time to eat. Will never order from here again if I’m working on a timeline. Casual dining only.

The Carving Board is the most enhanced experience with food that's affordable and consistent. I've work at different restaurants: The Ark, London, BBQ joints and Bow Tie/Long Apron service in NYC, etc... Pound for pound, The Carving Board is the most enhanced experience with food that's affordable and consistent. When a place is this efficient, all else falls into place. And believe me, you want! all else to fall into place.

Sadly disappointed. I've been wanting to try this place for a while now. Finally tried it out on Saturday, January 6. The highlights of my meal were the potato chips and the salad dressing for my side salad, which by the way, is just a container of lettuce. We had the smash burger and south Philly sandwich. Both were overpriced for what you get and lacking flavor. The worst part of the experience however, was the cashier. She had zero personality, could barely make eye contact and did not smile once. And when I politely asked for an extra salad dressing, she gave us a dirty look and acted so bothered like I asked for her firstborn child. If you're going to have a customer service job, you should have at least decent customer service skills. Unfortunately, I will not be returning.

Absolutely the best sandwiches in Burbank. Brought a friend from out of town and they agreed. In fact, might just be the best sandwich in the greater LA area!

Fast casual. A little pricier than I would prefer. But the food is great ?

The carving board is well know for serving delicious sandwiches, made to order. This location is the nearest for me, and I usually park in the public parking lot and then walk up to the location. I went this past weekend, placed an order through yelp and was able to pick it up on time. I ordered the "Buenos Aires" sandwich made with filet mignon chimichurri sauce, mushrooms, bell pepper and mozzarella served over n a talera roll. I am in between this sandwich and "the Bentley" they never disappoint and worth the extra $$.I also ordered the deep fried Oreos and this dessert can be shared! Amazing rich sweet flavor, has Ghirardelli chocolate and topped with whipped cream! Yummm! Overall, I prefer placing my order and taking it home rather than dining in. It is located near a busy intersection in Burbank and so you may run into a line if you walk in during lunch hours, especially. I recommend you check this place out and give them a try, you won't be disappointed.

11/2023. Turkey chili is awesome , please have it available in a large bowl. Love this place just wish there was music to create an upbeat vibe. Pet friendly and multiple healthy choices. Totally worth every penny. Don't forget to try their desserts....cookies and yes their butter cake? Butter something?

Pros: Online ordering was easy, place was clean, staff was friendly, and chips were tasty Cons: The Sweet November was extremely sour because they were heavy handed on the balsamic glaze which overpowered the cranberry, and turkey was dry Recs: Add mayo if you ask for no goat cheese and consider ordering without balsamic glaze

Food in my opinion was mediocre, and not worth menu prices. The jones soda fountain was not calibrated correctly, which made all the soda flavors overly carbonated. It's has outside seating, that was the best feature.

Feels like the employees are vacant lol - they're all nice & polite, but don't seem to register on the uptake too quick, or worse, are just smiling & nodding to get through this interaction rather than actually listen to your question. Long story short, ADVICE : check what you ordered, exactly on each item, to make sure it's what you ordered - don't rely on their confirmation. It's an irritation I've been noticing more & more lately - no one ever listening, even for a brief moment.Parking: If grabbing to go from order ahead, usually can park in wells Fargo next door to run in & run out. If attendant gives you any lip, ignore them because you're doing nada wrong - unless you park and eat in, then you deserve it, dope. ??

Great little lunch spot. Had their Turkey Club and shoestring fries and they were great. Not a fan of their soda choices; I'll get Tea next time.

This place is underrated! Delicious sandwiches and nice presentation. 10/10 recommend the medianoche sandwich, why wait an hour at Porto's for a Cubano when you can come here! Nice walkable location to stroll around Burbank after lunch.

Ordered the Bentley sandwich. Took a long while for them to prepare, maybe because it had steak on it. But when it did arrive, barely had any meat. Sandwich was still sufficient, but not to the quality I was expecting, let alone worth the high cost. I think this location may suffer from supply chain/operational issues, a lot of people were waiting for food for a while and even their soda machine wasn't turned on. I think they don't really know how to handle a lunch rush. If you do come by, you'd probably get the best food during a less busy period. If you come during lunch, keep in mind that the quality may not live up to your expectations.
