i am sitting here picking out stringy rubberized chicken from my teeth. I used to frequent le dip in the mid 2000s when i was in high school/ college. it was something i dreamt of often. I moved away after college and came back in 2021. I have since ordered Le Dip 3 times and every time the chicken has tasted OLD (like forgotten in a cardboard box in the back of the walk-in" old. Its so bad that i couldnt even finish the first half of my sandwich. Every time i went after returning I gave them the benefit of doubt and assumed i just caught them at a bad time. This is time was the final straw. You guys built a reputation for your quality and now you're just pocketing the money and giving us garbage. PLEASE try eating your own food then decide if its worth selling. I am disgusted. I wish you luck.

Went for a quick breakfast. Smoothie came out of a box and blended with ice- the menu made it seem it was 'fresh'. Bagel with ham and egg was grilled, top parts of bagel came off, whole thing was looking very very sad. Won't return, but maybe their sandwich's are better. I'll spare y'all a photo of the travesty.

Parking is dumb because it's in a large center next to a large university, but the garlic sauce on the hot sandwiches make this place a classic.

The broccoli chicken mushroom with garlic sauce is so good

I used to like this place, but recently I ordered a chicken eggplant sandwich and the chicken was stale.

This sandwich place is a new favorite of mine. The food is simply great without any unnecessary frills. The garlic sandwich is particularly awesome. Thanks to my fiance's recommendation, it's now in my top 5 sandwich places in Orange County. Highly recommended!

I use to be a huge fan when I was a UCI student. I was having nostalgia today and decided to revisit the campus. Also came to Le Dip as it was my favorite thing to eat near campus back in the day.I must’ve ordered this sandwich over 50 times in my lifetime but I will no longer be ordering from here.The chicken is dry and old. I estimate it’s been sitting for at least 4+ days. Literally picked out all the chicken and ate bread, broccoli, sriracha instead.This experience ruined my memory of this establishmentPlease use fresh chicken again

Only thing I've come here to say is that their garlic butter sauce is the best I've ever had; a must have for every sandwich you order (you can ask for an extra side too). Been coming here since I've been a wee college student, which was seemingly centuries ago. It's one of the only restaurants that have survived through the passage of time at UTC, which speaks volumes.
