50 Best Sandwich Shops near San Gabriel

“I'm not sure why there are so many bad reviews. This is a Subway, and if you want a quick, cheap sandwich you should stop by.

I've never had to wait too long for my sandwiches. I haven't tried everything, but my favorites are the ones made with rotisserie chicken and Italian cold cut meats.

Their chocolate chip cookies hit the spot.

The only drawback: parking isn't easy here. It's located in a plaza, so lots of traffic. Sometimes you won't get parking space easily.

Also, they seem to keep raising their prices.

I'll be back whenever I get a Subway craving!“

“This was my first time at My Dung. The atmosphere and vibes were good. The customer service was good as well. I paid $7 and paid through Zelle. They only take cash or Zelle. I got the grilled chicken Banh Mi. It was okay. The chicken was tough. It tasted like it was either over cooked or left out for a long time. The bread was flaky and not too tough. I’ll give the customer service 5.0 🌟 and the Banh Mi 3.0 🌟.“

“Decades upon decades, I have enjoyed Gene's Grinders. Fresh ingredients, friendly customer good service and fantastic memories since Huntington Drive. Thank you all for all the yummy, excellent food, hard work and fantastic memories! See you later! ❌️⭕️ 2/18/2026“

“Great sandwiches. Fresh ingredients.“

“Came from Cerritos to find out the hoopla Not disappointed. Very nice people food was great . Be back soon“

“The best old school sandwich place. A La Canada OG that has spanned generations in our valley. I moved away but miss these delicious sandwiches made with love.“

“I love the place.
You ordered then go. Employee is nice. And some other desert and fresh roll and so on.
Small spot on Alhambra and I love it close to coffee shop that I don't need to drive around. Parking is a little busy.“

“You will never get a sub quite as lovely as these. I don’t know why they’re so good, maybe fresh bread and fresh ingredients IDK but Turkey extra chili is my fave!! Mom loves Milanesa and the fried sides are YUMM too! I learned how to make my voice heard at the old little market. The big construction men at lunch time would be shouting out their orders. I was 11 years old and had to shout my order too!! Been a patron since 1982!!“

“Their sides looked very tempting, then I looked at the size of their pastrami sandwich I knew I couldn't even finish that alone.
Glad I only ordered just the sandwich & at about $14 with meats stacked so thick it's the best deal in town and anywhere else.
Delicious!“

“The bread is great, I have bought a few loafs there (top tip come at the end of the day and you get ten percent off bakery items) the food is good I had the roast beef sandwich, it was good but I didn’t quite like the soft bun that they used, and I asked if I could choose the bread next time, unfortunately they said that there were no substitutions on bread which is a bummer.

I do like the dining area it has a nice old time diner feel.“

“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!“

“What a hidden gem! I had the Sunrise Sandwich customized with roast beef instead of bacon, sourdough instead of a croissant, scrambled egg, and provolone. Absolute perfection. Everything tasted incredibly fresh, and their signature aioli brought it all together. I would’ve posted a photo, but I absolutely destroyed the sandwich before I even thought about it. Trust me, it was beyond delicious. The portions are huge—I’m taking the other half home, labeling it, and I will literally throw hands if anyone touches it. I already can’t wait to finish it. I’m still blown away that we have a place like this in El Monte. Such an upgrade from the usual Subway or Jersey Mike’s. Great quality, generous portions, and definitely worth what you’re paying. Los, it was so nice meeting you. Thank you for being so welcoming and hospitable. I love that you’re right next to the coffee shop too—perfect combination. I’ll definitely be bringing my family back. Wishing you nothing but success. El Monte needed this! Blessings, Marylou“

“My wife and I loved the place !“

“First time here. I ordered the Steak chimichurri sandwich. It was delicious. Had lots of flavor. My kid had their pizza, and we're very happy with it as well. All in all it was good experience for my first time. Will definitely come back and try a different meal.“

“Okay… I’m just gonna say it: this burger puts In-N-Out to shame! 😂 The burger was SO juicy, with that beautiful sear on the patty that gave it such an amazing flavor. The pickles were delicious, and that Thousand Island dressing tied the whole burger together perfectly. And that toasted bun?! 🤌🏽🔥 Everything just worked.

The fries were also so good—nice and crispy on the outside while still soft and fluffy on the inside. Exactly how I like my fries!

The food was fresh, flavorful, and seriously satisfying. I came hungry and left VERY happy. 😂

The Hat is definitely going on my list of places I’d come back to. Highly recommend! 🍔🍟❤“

“I stopped by Mike’s Deli in DTLA on my way to Union Station, and I’m glad I did! While the store itself isn’t flashy at all, they do produce some extremely good sandwiches.

The girl working at the counter was very friendly and welcoming. I ordered a Mike’s Deli #1, which is essentially a spicy version of a turkey avocado sandwich. The sandwich was super fresh and bursting with flavor.

Really, every aspect of this sandwich was memorable, and the meat-to-vegetable-to-bread ratio was on point. The bread was very fluffy and nice, too.

It’s an d-school, simple deli that doesn’t stand out cosmetically, but it’s clean, welcoming, and they pump out some top-tier deli sandwiches at reasonable prices.“

“We had a delicious meal at Monty's that serves hot and cold sandwiches, chicken and waffles and breakfast all day! We tried their G-moe's cheesesteak - the bread was soft and the steak was perfectly seasoned and paired well with the cheese and mushrooms. We also had the steak breakfast burrito which is one of my tops on the area. The tortilla is thin, egg is fluffy, waffle fries are crisp and cheese and meat was spot on! Sweet potato fries and house-made potato salad were tasty too. The staff are friendly, prices and portions are great and easy parking in the plaza. Definitely recommend a visit!“

“Good service and great food“

“My friend brought me a sandwich from here for lunch today and it was UNBELIEVABLY good!!! WOW <3 =)“

“Sandwiches are the best here lol I know it’s donut factory. The donuts are good, but the sandwiches are 🤌🏽🤌🏽🤌🏽 I usually get the #12 Turkey croissant. The ratio of meat and veggies and pickles and jalapeño really make the sandwich. Great neighborhood spot. Gets busy during peak brekkie and lunch hours.“

“the staff were very welcoming and helpful, did was fabulous and hearty!!😄😃“

“This is probably the best tuna sandwich I've ever had in my life. I never want to have any other tuna sandwich as long as I live.

The owner is a very nice and friendly person. I love all the artwork in the facility. Every time I visit this part of town I'm going to go here“

“This is one of those local gem mom and pop restaurants that everyone loves. Great sandwiches, great onion rings and good prices. The restaurant itself it a little dated and the owners say very little, but the food speaks for itself. I've been coming here since I was a kid and will continue coming until I no longer can.

Parking: Free parking but limited parking spaces.“

“Delicious twist on an old favorite.“

“great food the food was hot“

“At long last, a top tier sandwich place in LA. I've been a hopeless East Coaster for many years, and I've finally found a spot I can trust. Tommy is a brilliant chef, he is awesome and so are his staff. You can't go wrong with the Beef Blvd or anything else on his menu, but I love his daily specials.“

“Right by the aquatic center it’s a nice little sandwich shop to get a quick bite when your kid is doing laps or your family as at the playground. We got the Dave’s sandwich and the chicken pesto. Both were pretty tasty and the toasting on the pesto sandwich was perfect. I’d go again and suggest to family and friends.“

“Delicious mom and pop shop ran by a couple that sells really good sandwiches that have a home packed lunch feel and taste to it. I ordered the roast beef sandwich and it had a good amount of vegetables and the bread was good. It came with a small potato salad and I also ordered the spicy tuna sushi which was both delicious.

The couple that runs this restaurant is very nice and welcoming and I'll definitely come back if I'm in the area for lunch.“

“Absolutely amazing! I was in town for work, and looking for some good food. Their food is made with natural ingredients and tastes amazing! The people are friendly and helpful. The bread in their sandwiches and subs is made by a non supplier bakery, so it tastes fresh and amazing, unlike chain pizza places! Would definitely recommend!“

“My daughter and I stopped by on a whim. Excellent quality food, tasty and delicious sandwiches. Local vendor. Anna is a small business owner and was very friendly and kind. I recommend wholeheartedly. Literally a homemade quality sandwich for the same price as Subway.“

“I usually go for breakfast because they have made to order breakfast bahn mi sandwiches. For the price, you get a pretty big sized sandwich. I think I spend like under 12 bucks for a sandwich and bottled water. I usually get the ham and egg. Kimmy always takes my phone orders and she is so nice!“

“Off-the-charts delicious. And that’s coming from someone who’s eaten pizza all over the world — including unforgettable Neapolitan pizza in Naples.

I ordered a slice of the “Green” pizza and the Caesar salad, which is hands down the best Caesar I’ve ever had. The pizza crust is incredibly flavorful with the perfect consistency, and the edge of the crust had just the right thickness with beautiful airy pockets. Absolute perfection.

The Caesar deserves its own shoutout: homemade croutons that were so good they could be a menu item on their own.

100% recommend. And to top it all off, as I was leaving, I got to meet Chris Bianco himself — what a treat!“

“This is for the subway inside Longo Toyota. Debbie assisted me.. she was very nice n friendly and helpful. I asked for her recommendation on what bread is good for breakfast n cheese to go with what I ordered, which is the steak, egg n cheese sandwich 😬 awesome service!! 👍😉“

“An awesome authentic find! the portions are filling and it tastes delicious 🌮“

“I’ve been recently new to this location, enjoying the new quality interior, I’m quite fond of this Subway staff and attention to detail of the entire working staff of employees here.

They are always welcoming and friendly towards me upon entering and assisting in making me my favorite veggie sandwich with a little to no issue present. Angel, especially has been always kind, high spirits, providing excellent customer service and with his signature smile and warm personality.

A special thank you to all of the hard working crew here at this Subway restaurant, especially Angel as you continue to make my visit delightful in such a sincerely friendly environment.

I highly recommend more customers continue to show this location and restaurant support, especially that the services and food provided is quite exceptional, affordable and local.

Thank you, Subway!

Respectfully and sincerely,
Moise“

“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.“

“My favorite sandwich shop in SGV! My all time favorite is the Pastrami & Swiss Melt on the Marble Rye bread. They have great customer service & a large selection of food items 🤤“

“Genesis and Jessica were so kind and friendly they made our late night meal a delight! We will definitely return for the customers service because I’ve been to another subway late at night and the lady made my sandwich so sloppy but not here. Genesis made my sandwich with love.“

“Loved the soda, and I got to use the coupons. I hope to get my cookie, free. My awesome friends saw me order the cookie, and they too eventually ordered one. The food at this restaurant is healthier than other restaurants, say Panda Express. The helpful employee even baked my friend's white bread, that was fantastic. No Subway, no way.“

“Today, I stopped by to purchase a meal at the Bell Gardens SUBWAY location. I would like to recognize Jason and Betsy for the excellent customer service. They were both welcoming, helpful, and gave service with a smile. Employees like them help SUBWAY succeed. I will definitely return to this establishment due to positive experience.“

“I am a fan favorite of Lee’s especially the banh mi and iced coffee. When I moved back to Cali I was excited to see how many Lee’s there are through expansion. However I have been disappointed with ALL of them except for the one in Pasadena. Always great service, the bread is always soft with great texture (not stale), plenty of meat. Other Lee’s give and embarrassing amount of meat. Lee’ Pasadena I will always drive extra to come see you.“

“Great sandwiches. I especially enjoyed the atmosphere and the great service from the owner. A+ for customer service. The gentleman was exceptional. Don’t get quality service like that anymore. Would definitely recommend supporting this sandwich shop. We’ll be back! 🙌🏼“

“My new go to place for banh mi! They're open until pretty late for a banh mi place, which I appreciated when I needed to grab some sandwiches at 8:30 pm for a late dinner.

They offer a buy 2 get 1 free deal for the round bread banh mi. One is $6.25 so when you order two and get one free, it comes out to be about $4 each. The sandwiches I've gotten so far (grilled pork and grilled beef) are the most stuffed I've seen in a round banh mi!

I couldn't leave without trying their egg rolls and pate chaud. They're $1.30 each or 3 pieces for $3.75. Solid egg rolls and pate chaud.

Parking in this supermarket plaza can be a little crazy. Park towards the side to avoid the traffic.“

“Today, was our first time to Togo's Sandwiches. We drove 15 miles. We ordered a hot pastrami, French dip, cheesesteak, California Club and turkey, ham and cheddar sandwich. I also picked up a chocolate chip cookie. Today, I had the pastrami for lunch and cheesesteak for dinner. The sandwiches were delicious. The bread was soft, lots of meat, I added lettuce and mayo. My husband had the California club. He loved the soft bread. The sandwiches were made fresh. If I'm ever in the area, I will definitely go back. I wish the Togo was closer to my house. The 2 ladies that work behind the counter were very friendly and nice.“

“Delicious sandwiches and over repriced drinks, one Aquafina for $2.35 😑“

“I was visiting California for the first time and my son and daughter happen to love this place. The servers are nice, the place is clean and the menu has artisanal sandwiches and salads. We picked up the Not So Fried chicken sandwich and a summer peach salad. Really happy they took me here, the food is amazing! So look forward to a return visit.“

“CRYSTAL was very nice. It’s very rare when I go into a Subway and they change their gloves to put on your veggies very talkative very nice. Very informative remembers who you are when you come in and that’s what I like. The store is not messy I was able to get all my veggies. She asked me if I’m need anything before she rung me up. Very Very Good Pl., A+ plus if you ever like a Subway or if you ever went to a Subway and you didn’t like them anymore because they wasn’t sanitize you should try this location very sanitize common environment. I love it“

“Went to Subway on election night to stress eat. Steven, my sandwich artist saw my democratic election anxiety and assurred me he was going to make my sandwich with love. Let me tell you, not only did Steven make my sandwich as I ordered, he was able to strike up some relevant and districting conversation, despite him being a young Republican. Keep up the kindness and care Steven. The world needs more Republicans like you. Not to mention your sic sandwich making skills.“

“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!“

“Here the portions are very generous and the donuts are absolutely delicious. I initially ordered two, but they were so tasty and fresh that I couldn’t resist asking for a third one. The place is clean, cozy, and welcoming, with a pleasant atmosphere that makes you want to stay longer. I highly recommend it to everyone who appreciates good food and friendly service.“
