Sandwich Shops near La Canada Flintridge

“Well, as they say… “they don’t make ‘em like this anymore.” What a DELIGHTFUL experience at Berge’s. I had the turkey & avocado, while another friend has the grilled cheese & tomato basil bisque soup. Both were so, so good. When one of the employees had realized 2 of us in our party of three hadn’t tried the soup… they sent over 2 smaller cups to make sure we got to experience the magic.

We talked with one of the employees who has been working at Berge’s since ‘95. The level of care that goes into the time the shred the fresh lettuce, ensure the purchasing high quality meats, and expertly make the same soup every day makes for a deli experience people want to be a part of over and over again.

There is something about a laminate wood paneled shop that just does it for me. Especially one where the owner sits in a corner, makes sure every is getting what they need, monitoring it all while competing a crossword. The start serving 2 different soups a daily when the weather cools off, and I personally cannot wait until I get to write to you all again about when I get my hands on a Berge’s tuna melt.“

“I celebrated my graduation this evening in this excellent restaurant. happy to tell that we had a fantastic evening and the place was clearly one of the reasons for that strong gathering. The waiters helped in a graceful way, the meals were tasty and my buddies were very joyful. We shall definitely visit again for more joyful events. thanks very much.“

“Jersey Mike's Subs is way more better than Subway, but more expensive though.“

“Magnífico lugar para comer!! Excelente servicio Jessica, Jessenia y todos los que trabajan son grandiosos.“

“Focaccia bread was freshly made and warm, and the greens of the salad also very fresh and crisp. The portobello mushroom in the mushroom sandwich was very flavorful. My only reservation is the sun dried tomato spread instead of actual sun dried tomatoes. Very healthy plant based choices.“

“the bread is very fresh and I had the Pastrami and avocado it was delicious!“

“Retro corner shop serving sandwiches, burgers, and other hot food.
----------
Wet Fries with Gravy
Grade: A-
I don't know what kind of stock they use for the gravy but the flavor is phenomenal. A little on the salty side but not too bad when you spread it out over the fries. The portion size is also massive
----------
Pastrami Dip
Grade: C-
The smokiness of the pastrami is good but it is really salty. I don't know if it's the pastrami itself or the au jus but the salt overpowers the rest of the flavor.“

“Super friendly service and they always remember your face. With me they always remembers what I order. Way delicious sandwiches. Condiments and well drinks not to be rivaled. Smack in the middle of Pasadena near Sierra Madre on Colorado. Enjoy!“

“I've been on a banh mi quest to find the best banh mi in San Gabriel valley.

I usually buy one item at all the places and it's the BBQ pork sandwich.
This is the best place so far. The sandwich is delicious. Old school delicious.

I call this banh mi, THE ULTIMATE. ?

Place is cash only.“

“Fat Sal's Deli is known for its massive, over-the-top sandwiches packed with bold flavors and creative ingredients. It's a great spot for indulgent, hearty meals that satisfy big appetites. The casual atmosphere and unique menu make it a favorite for anyone craving comfort food with a twist.“

“Love the extra toppings on the subs. Family got the cold cut and pastrami. The smalls were plenty big for everyone. Wish more places put that much pickles /tomatoes etc on theirs!

Very busy the whole time we were there. But they were fast and friendly. Prepare for cash only ( no higher then 20's).

They could put a little effort into upgrading the seating area. A relative says it's looked like that since he was a kid about 40yes ago.

Well worth the visit!“

“Had a hankering for pizza and came here. I ordered a pepperoni, mushroom and onion pizza and sat in my car and absolutely destroyed this thing. It was so good! Nice crispy crust, perfect tomato sauce to cheese ratio and the toppings tasted fresh. Banger of a pizza. ?“

“Give it up for the classic. You will not be dissatisfied with the quality of your pastrami. Location is super clean and fast service. Was here for lunch on a weekday. Sandwich was not salty you could taste the spices. Fresh French fries with horseradish sauce (aioli) well call me a cab - I am done“

“Best Sandwiches Anywhere!“

“A huge pastrami on rye, hit the spot!
Back for a pastrami dip and an orange blast, wow. This is a must visit whenever I'm in town!
The place is a real blast from the past, they don't do it like this much any more. I want to try some other sandwiches but I can't pass up that pastrami!!!“

“Good service and great food“

“One of the best chicken sliders I’ve ever had. The honey based sauce is to die for. The food slaps hard. I couldn’t recommend this place enough.“

“Best east coast style sandwiches in LA no one comes close.“

“I enjoy # 1 Bros on brown bread !“

“Black girl who works here is soooo sweet and is a cherry on top of the dine in experience. My boyfriend and I like to get the steak sandwich and the not so fried chicken sandwich and go halfsies on them. Highly recommend. I dream about this sandwich combo“

“yummy sandwiches, very nice staff“

“First time here yesterday and happy to keep coming back, had the hot pastrami sub and it was seriously good loved the mayo mustard combo with chopped tomato onion and pickles combined and layered generously over the whole sub Also had the Tonys special sub .. lots of fresh and tasty deli meats mortadella hams salamis and again the in-house mustard mayo combo .. awesome sandwich For a side I had the bow tie pasta which was cooked al dente with plenty of the marinated artichoke hearts and a great authentic Italian feel and flavour As this had now developed into leftovers for dinner given the size of it all I took us home a tiramisu for dessert later, and as with everything else well worth the eating Opened in 1979 and still going strong .. it’s easy to see why“

“Awesome food will definitely return!“

“Unique and delicious Mediterranean & Middle East food you will never regret to eat there. Food & ingredients are so fresh and tasty makes me want to go back everyday! You cant find better chi khufte in LA. ( probably in the rest of U.S. as well) You can also buy variety of spices and food ingredients from the shop as well. Early breakfast or late brunch my choice would always be Sahags.“

“I've been coming here for 40 years! always so delicious!“

“I happened to see one of these on the way to my hotel and it reminded me of the shops they had in Sac. Grabbed a grilled pork bahn mi for lunch with some egg rolls to share. Added a well done egg and loved it. All their sandwiches are really good. I will return if in the area for sure. Great food for a great price“

“Love Ike’s! So happy we have one in Burbank!“

“My wife has her own sandwich which is a Michelle sandwich turkey, provolone, easy on the mayo and mustard with avocado on toasted Italian roll, just ask for a Michelle they know what it consists of with a bag of chips and pelegrino pamogranit and tangerine try it you'll like it and tell them Michelle sent you thank you and bon a petite ?.“

“I love Wax Paper! The sandwiches, named after NPR hosts, are delicious and have creative flavor combos. All the ingredients are super fresh, which makes a big difference. I’ve tried all the sandwiches and my favorites are: Ira Glass (shredded cheese + avocado is genius); Lakshmi Singh (pesto!); Audie Cornish (upgraded jambon buerre); and Terry Gross (focaccia!). Note: No substitutions. The staff are really nice and even gave me some free day-old bread once. "Mister Beans" side is great on its own or atop a salad of arugula and uses day-old bread (also reducing food waste). Frogtown is lucky to have Wax Paper!

Vegetarian options: Ira Glass, Lakshmi Singh, sides“

“born in Philly, raised in PA. Their sandwiches are authentic. bread, meat, and cheese.“

“Hand made sandwiches with fresh ingredients make an incredible taste. Love the Hot in the Club sandwich. Homemade pickled jalapenos and spread with turkey and bacon, yum! Sometimes the order can take awhile so don't be a in hurry. Fig and Brie is another great choice! Love it here. Regular may be on the small size for some.“

“I had the chicken parmesan sandwich and I really enjoyed it. I would definitely get it again. I also had the sugar-free/diet version of the craft cola they had, which was also very good. When I'm in Burbank again, I will certainly stop by.

Parking: Street parking fills up quick but can be found occasionally. There are nearby lots/garages to park in.“

“Tuesday 8/27/24 Lunch at Tip Top Sandwich in Rosemead. I was craving for their Banh mi and Vietnamese ice coffee. They make good Banh mi here. Crunchy bread with a good amount of tasty meats, liver spread, pickle carrots and a strong refreshing ice coffee on a warm day. Life is good. It hits the spot.

“I been here twice had the turkey sandwich on slice bagel bread the 1st time and the 2nd time I had the tune on slice bagel bread and the mango tea. so far I love this place everything nice and clean and excellent customer service. I will be back.“

“Quality of the food at this location is just like the others. Can't speak to environment because I did a pickup, but it was crowded when I was inside and there were staff making sure dine-ins were taken care of, so no problems with foot traffic.

Service was fast considering I put in my order about 30min before, drove over in <10min, and bag was ready. Didn't have to interact with anyone!

Probably the hardest part was finding parking because this Mendocino is part of the Americana, which is paid garage parking. Street parking is tough due to location.“

“Best east coast style sandwiches in LA no one comes close.“

“I recently visited Donut Factory, and it was an unforgettable experience! The variety of donuts available is truly impressive, from classic glazed to innovative flavors like maple bacon and matcha green tea. Each donut is made fresh daily, ensuring they are soft, fluffy, and bursting with flavor.

The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, always ready to help with recommendations. I especially loved the cozy atmosphere, making it a perfect spot to relax with a coffee and treat myself.

Whether you're a donut enthusiast or just looking for a sweet pick-me-up, Donut Factory is a must-visit. I can't wait to go back and try more flavors! Highly recommended!“

“I recently dined at Subway and had a wonderful experience. The food was fresh and delicious, with plenty of options to choose from. The service was friendly and efficient, making me feel welcome and valued as a customer. The atmosphere was clean and inviting, a perfect spot for a quick meal. Highly recommend the Subway Club – definitely a great choice for a tasty and satisfying meal!??????“

“The food here was ok it could possibly be better though. I ordered a spicy chicken burger. But it was not spicy at all. It had zero % spicy sensation ?. I ordered a spicy chicken wing too and it was the same as the burger. I think they might of gotten the order wrong or it is not spicy at all. That Ice Black Tea drink is super delicious. I always try to drink it with extra water because it is sugary.I appreciate the service here.“

“Shout out to Louie for caring about customer service on Thursday night March 18. Nice to see you care about Jersey Mike's image. Great job Louie!“

“The place is interesting, it is within sight of the road, it has parking.
The service is fast, they are friendly, they have space to eat there, their coffee is delicious, the baguettes are a good size, price and taste good, so I do recommend them.“

“I love coming here! Great food, friendly service and family run. The village is so charming.“

“The line is always super clean and I’ve been here bunch of times and the bread has always been so soft!! The cookies always taste fresh and the wait is never long. 10/10 Store!!! Alsooo Shout out to Marco for being so nice and welcoming :))“

“Tasty Banh Mis. I always get the sardine along with either the pork or chicken. All made fresh to order. They include a small au jus of the specific Banh Mi you order-nice touch. ? Parking is a challenge since it right on Hyperion so if you see a spot, take it.“

“I went in here and ordered one of their subs about 2 weeks after they first opened in August of 2020, maybe less than two weeks after they opened (the owner of the restaurant had given me a free complimentary bag of Kettle chips for being one of the early customers,thanks for that ?). I ordered a sub with pastrami and Black Forest ham and cheese, I think it was mozzarella cheese, with wasabi sauce on it (not too much, I told them easy with the wasabi). It was very good, but it wasn’t a filling meal for me (very important thing to consider for me! Which is why I emphasize this point, for the price it should have had more meat in it: though I’m not saying they “skimp” on the meat, but those two points which I’ll say again: 1) for the price it wasn’t enough, and 2) though it wasn’t skimped it wasn’t enough to make a satisfying meal: I took the sub home (this was during the COVID pandemic) and had to supplement the meal with more than just the sandwich and the bag of chips, which was of course a small bag of chips. But I recommend SubDan if you want to try an excellent sub. And they have kinds of subs you won’t find anywhere else, it’s a Japanese American subway sandwich place, and that sub tasted high quality, fresh, interesting: SubDan is very skilled at making subs, they’ve made a culinary art out of it, and they add some Japanese touches (at least the one I had was like that). I haven’t tried any of their burritos yet, so I don’t know how good or how filling they are. I notice at least two of the other reviewers recommend the breakfast burritos. I haven’t tried those yet.“

“Came here for dinner tonight and I must say Angel was a SUPERSTAR. Not only was he working by himself, but he was cool, calm and collected in such a stressful situation. I really didn’t understand why he was by himself during a dinner time rush, but the fact that he’s STILL A TRAINEE… I was shocked. I’ve honestly never come across a better employee at Subway! Let’s just say he was so good that I never thought I would leave a review for Subway…“
