My husband and I went to this place for the first time. Their sandwiches were amazing I would definitely recommend.

Soft calming music sets the tone when you walk in with plenty of seating options and very kind staff, this is the best sandwich in the area. I also love that they offer “half” portions of all their sandwiches when I’m just looking for a snack.

I love this place! I come here all the time and always get the green monster and a strawberry smoothie. Everything is SO fresh, from the sandwich itself to the drink/pickle on the side, and the bread is amazing! Sometimes, I get a chocolate chip cookie and it’s baked fresh and soooo delicious and gooey. The couple who owns this place is super nice. Highly recommend and honestly think this place is underrated.

Still the best sandwich around. Owners provided amazing service as well adding to the lunch experience
The sandwiches here are really bad.
A charming and well-lit lunch spot obviously operated by a lovely unit of a family. The strawberry lemonade bullseyes the tart target without being overly sweet. The mango smoothie with almond milk transported me to a mango-smoothie-with-almond-milk wonderland, thick with sweet clouds of brain freeze. With tongue gingerly against the roof of my mouth, I bit into the Green Monster on sourdough, its freshness delighted and satiated. If I lived within five blocks of Munch Company I would be here no less than five times a month. That’s the truth, Ruth!

Our family lived in South Pasadena 12 years ago. When Celeste owned it the food was an amazing. Then she sold it years ago the new owners changed the food and it wasn’t good. We just came into town and the new owners changed it back the food is amazing again.

This is still one of the best sandwiches in LA. I used to come 25 years ago when it was the original owners and nice to see not much has changed. The turkey and avocado is my favorite!

One of the best sandwich places I’ve ever been, I am not a big fan of sandwiches but the sandwiches here are so flavorful and fresh. The turkey fig & Brie has just the perfect combination of sweet and savory, and the seedy pastrami is such a toasty treat, I have no idea how they cooked the vegetables but it’s just so good. The owners are so nice, peach smoothie is a must-try and the cookies are so good too. The overall atmosphere is just so soothing and wholesome.

I love it here! I come whenever I’m craving a good sandwich. The combo is a great deal! I love the salami pesto, the avocado hummus, and turkey fig and brie sandwiches. I always enjoy the hibiscus basil tea :) The music is so nice and the service is excellent!!

I ordered ahead. The owner did not like that I dined it. Their online order options do not allow to specify for take out or dine-in.
The reason against dine-in, I am not sure. They have tables and no one there.
The food was nothing special. The roast beef sandwich was on store bought sourdough. Soft and tasty. The ingredients were well-proportioned.
However, there was nothing special about it.
The pickle that came with it was terrible. It was soft and not sour. It lacked any crunch. I think I would have preferred to eat the paper in came.
Along with chips and a small drink (by small I mean small, it was probably 8oz) or so, and half was ice), it came to ~$17-$18.
I will not return.

Usually I have a great experience at this shop but today I had to second guess if to ever come here again. The ice got me sick I don't know if they don't clean their ice machine but their ice tasted moldy. To my surprise it made me run to the bathroom fairly right after I had it. I also had a sandwich which the ingredients didn't feel fresh.

Great sandwiches (I like the turkey fig and brie) and nice workers, but the soup to-go portion was really poor and small, with only a few small pieces of meat and no vegetables inside. This portion was for $7. Very much not like the photos you see of the soup....
Got a strawberry lemonade and the turkey, brie, and fig sandwich. Both were delicious! I got the regular size of the sandwich but it was so good I could have eaten more. Staff was really friendly, place has a nice chill atmosphere.
