“I travel all over the country, eating at fantastic restaurants, and I was extremely happy with everything we received, including the iced tea. This restaurant is a must-visit when you're in L.A.! Kudos! Delicious 😋“

“Been a customer since 1961 and my parents before that. I moved to San Diego in 2006, I miss this quality family owned business. Come on down to SD and show them how it’s done.“

“Love this concept, menu, and all the creative components. All the sandwiches sound delicious, I could’ve gotten the whole menu. As far as execution though, I felt the sandwiches could have had a little more balance to them. I got Jeff’s special, and although tasty, it was more cheese than pastrami and quite oily. I don’t have a problem with getting messy but every other aspect of the sandwich was getting overshadowed by the cheese. Not enough kraut to punch and not enough pastrami to feel like a proper Reuben. Wanted to give them another shot so I got another, the turkey salad sandwich, but after a half it just tasted like a chill cheese frito. I believe in you guys and am sure there’s other delicious stuff on the menu!! I just think the sandwiches are a little out of balance and maybe the owner needs to go back in there and see if procedures/amounts are being followed.“

“Why is a quality turkey sandwich so hard to find in LA? ghost sando, gjusta, ggiata never hit the spot.

Yet, everything about The Broadway is perfect. Banh mi like baguette bread, thinly cut turkey, and a sauce/seasoning combo that is actually perfect. Salty creamy with the best balance of veggies.

The only cold cut I’ll ever want and need.“

“I was going to take a picture earlier but it is so darn good I couldn’t stop. MY NEW FAVORITE SANDWICH PLACE in the neighborhood! Pasadena, San Gabriel COME AND GET IT.“

“Every moment. The location, staff, cleanliness, organization , but most definitely the food !!! See you there real soon. Livin that #volkxlyfe !!! Go lakers !!“

“Just had the best latke I've ever had, paired with the most memorable apple sauce, thick and spiced, almost jammy in texture...I'll be back just for those alone! The open faced bagel with lox and crispy salmon skin was also a win, and the server was super friendly. So glad I stopped by!“

“Great sandwiches. Fresh ingredients.“

“Had a delicious Supreme sandwich so delicious also had broccoli salad and macaroni salad 😋 so delicious ❤️“

“The only Armenian market in Glendale with an amazing customer service. I really enjoy shopping there. The owner and the staff are extremely respectful toward customers.“

“Excellent bahn mi! Pictured is the classic cold cut sandwich that comes with a deliciously salty sauce on the side. The bread is the ideal texture of crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. If you love bahn mis, this place will not disappoint! The staff is also very friendly.“

“I forgot my breakfast and really wanted a yummy breakfast burrito. I am very picky and sometimes I can't find a breakfast burrito I like. And then I found this place. Wow, this breakfast burrito is one of the BEST I have tasted in LA. It's so so yummy and it's portioned perfectly. I will 1000% be coming back. The man behind the counter was so sweet, I love having a place I can rely on close to my job. Thank you for making my morning so yummy!!!“

“live up in the mountains nowadays but the original sub is always on my list ....... part of my 58 years of life 😁“

“The human touch of a bowl of noodles⋯When I used to work at a newspaper in Mengcheng City, I would go to this Shanghai aunt’s noodle shop with other reporters to dine ?She remembered our preferences and faces after several visits. We didn’t meet for a while after leaving the job. One day we met by chance on the road, and my aunt still remembered me!After chatting for a while and saying goodbye, she said that she wanted to treat her to a meal next time she went to a restaurant. I didn't take it to heart. Until a few days ago, I drove by and wanted to eat their bowl of noodles. When I walked in, she was talking on the phone to take orders. When she saw my eyes widened, she asked me to sit down. Not long after, my dry noodles were served. Plus a red oil snack as a treat.This bowl of noodles is quite special. It is neither fried noodles nor sesame noodles, but fried sesame noodles mixed with two sauces. The menu is called "Strange Flavor Noodles". The taste is quite rich. When eating, you should mix it with raw cucumber. The noodles, sauce and refreshing cucumber naturally form a delicious balance that makes you want to take another bite.Maybe it's so strange. After eating it for the first time, I ordered this bowl of noodles from the store every time I came back. Several times when I walked into the store, my aunt yelled at the kitchen, knowing that this was what I ordered.While eating noodles, we talked about many things, including the decline of the newspaper office, and many people left! There are all new faces now, and the lively scenes before are no longer there. I smiled and said, many old employees should come back to see you, right? She laughed and said that it was true. Every once in a while, old faces come to reminisce, including me who showed up today.When she was leaving after the meal, she waved her hand and said don't give me any money. I said give me a tip! I just left the money on the table and emphasized that I would still come back. Not only was this bowl of noodles the most important thing, the human touch was priceless.“

“The best affordable sandwiches you'll ever find. Nice hidden gem in the community that provides really great quality in their sandwiches. I recommend #2 and #3. The portions are very decent for the price one sandwich can be split for 2ppl. Staff is always attentive and polite.“

“The Heights is a great local spot for delicious food at a great price. The sandwiches are so so good and a great deal for the size. My favorite I’ve tried is the Pasadena Ave. Their pasta is also surprisingly yummy for a gas station parking lot establishment, and portions are super generous. They also have a great selections of drinks, alcoholic and na, and staff is always super kind and accommodating. If you order online for pickup, there is a $40 cap on the order, which is a little bit of an annoying quirk. But that’s a very minor critique for what is otherwise an all-around great spot!“

“This tiny produce stand has rare fruits and imported vegetables—people visit from across town. I picked up loquats, guava, and fresh tropical greens. The proprietor knew each item’s origin and suggested preparation tips. The space felt more like a curated market than a stall. It's a quiet local treasure for culinary explorers“

“Grade A (95): St Vincent Deli, is my favorite restaurant in the alley. I can't believe how much food comes out of this tiny little restaurant. They have Shawerma (gyros style) but tastes amazing. They have fresh home made food as a feature every day. I specially love Thursdays (Kufteh) which is ground beef kebab in small finger like shape in tomato sauce and fries (delicious). The alley is an Historic and cozy Alley with hidden gems as restaurants.“

“Although the restaurant is often crowded, the wait staff are usually responsive and able to attend to customers' needs.“

“My wife and I shared a smoked turkey, cheese and avocado sandwich and it was plenty for a late lunch and the bread was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, my wife enjoyed the lentil soup also. we shall return when in the area.“

“I tried this place for lunch since I was looking for something new that also wasn't so heavy like other items around the area are. I chose this place because the of the reviews and also their menu. It seems all over the place since it goes from wraps, to sandwiches, sushi rolls, poke, smoothies, ice blended drinks, and even boba!

I ordered the chicken wrap for lunch and chose a side of potato salad. You have three options, which are fries, salad or potato salad. I'll try the other two the next time, maybe with a sandwich. The chicken wrap, I assumed, I was going to receive cold. To my surprise it was warm and that's because it comes with freshly grilled chicken. The chicken was juicy, flavorful, and surrounded by crisp veggies. It also had like a ranch sauce or caesar dressing sauce or similar. But it all worked out well together.

The potato salad was just okay, and it was nothing amazing. It had a decent flavor. Personally, I would not order this item again as it could have been better.

The ice blended coffee was great. Exactly what I had expected from an ice blended beverage. Nothing amazing and I would order it again, but this time in a larger size for me.

Overall, this place was much better than I had expected, and it does deserve it's rating as the food was packaged neatly, looked great and tasted great. I will definitely be coming back to this place to try their other items. The place is nice and the prices are more than fair and inexpensive.“

“Grand Central Market is fun and Wexlers was good.“

“1 review? How is there only 1 review for this place? Are you kidding me? The best food truck in DTLA plus a brick and mortar to go with it!!! The BEST smoothies in Los Angeles. Period. The smoothie guy is a lil grumpy but that's okay. The food truck ladies are so beautiful and polite and talented chefs, what more could you ask for? 1 review? Come on LA, show your love. This place is always busy so I'm not sure why only 1 review. Check them out for sure. Grab that mango spinage smoothie, oh boy!!!!“

“A friend of mine brought me here. I live so close and regret not coming here sooner. Their daily special with Shish Kebab was excellent. Can't wait to bring more friends for a quick lunch. They have seating with Cafe tables hidden in the back.“

“This place has a deli shop hidden in the back. What a treasure. The deli sandwiches where so fresh me and my husband could not put them down. You need to try the deli I dont know about the test of the shop but I would take all my family to this deli if I lived in Cali..“

“I came by early in the morning with a request and the employee - Elza, Eliza? - was so nice about it that I returned in the afternoon to try the fish tacos. Realllyyy good fish taco, the salsa was amazing, the cabbage was crisp. Would definitely come back to try the shrimp tacos. Give Elsa a raise, she is nice and gives great service.

In regards to the star rating I gave, I gave four stars because the prices for other items were really high. The tacos were well priced, but I was interested in trying the veggie burger in the future and saw that they were charging $18 and some change. I know it’s DTLA but those are some sit down and have a waiter come to you prices. I’ll still consider coming by for a taco, but I’ll skip on anything larger.“

“The tacos were amazing. The Pastor was fire!“

“The quality has remained high since my family started going there back in 1961. You can’t go wrong with any selections, although their original combo will always be my favorite!“

“Every time I’m in a Glendale, I must stop by for coffee, pastries and the feel of the place. ☕️❤️🙏“

“Great Produce and the selection of drinks is great“

“This restaurant is kid of hidden, hard to spot when driving by. The restaurant is clean and well kept the food looks fresh and good. The staff greets you when you enter the door and is very friendly they answered all the questions I had of the menu and offered me alternative in case they did not have some of the ingredients. The restaurant has shared parking in the shopping center and is plentiful. I had the pastrami sandwich with a broccoli salad and an ice tea drink for 25 dollars. The sandwich was a decent portion size and was really delicious, definitely worth it. The broccoli salad was also very tasty, I would recommend both of them. Overall this restaurant is a must visit if you are in the area and need a quick bite for lunch.“

“Delicious Philly Cheese Steak.“
