    I recently had my good friend order us a sandwich while I was driving down from San Clemente. I asked for mine on white bread, and he prefers brown, so he ordered half white and half brown. Unfortunately, the sandwich came half brown and half white on both -- half white and half brown -- instead of making one sandwich on white and other half on brown. My friend mentioned it to the staff, and they asked him to "fix it" himself. Usually, if someone prefers wheat bread, they don't eat white, and vice versa, so that was a little disappointing I took wheat bread off and the white bread was a little soggy also.

    2025 - I forgot which one this was, sorry! But it was the best!

    OMG this lady pours so much love into her food. It's like having your aunt fix you a healthy hearty meal to fill you up! The sandwiches are not cheap but they are HUGE. We got four and each of us had food for the next day. The sandwiches are shareable for sure - the issue is will you agree to the same sandwich or just get your own!? That's why we got four - but it was worth it. Plenty of free parking (pretty much a residential area) Plenty of space to eat inside if you want. Can't wait to go back and try that Apple & fruit infused drinks she makes.

    First let me say this place is heaven sent and the customer service is beautiful the owner (I forgot her name) is the sweetest soul and her energy radiates I love this place and will definitely return I got a veggie sandwich and my daughter got a turkey sandwich the sandwich was big enough to share and taste amazing I love this place while I was there I spoke to the owner and she was saying she will be relocating soon ( I was like girl wherever you go I'm gonna be right there ) lol and I wish her all the prosperity she deserves

    Upon my arrival, I noticed that the staff was quite busy preparing sandwiches for other patrons, which may explain why I wasn't greeted right away. However, I appreciated that when they did approach me, it was with kindness. I informed them that I was waiting for a friend to join me for lunch. After about twenty minutes, the staff followed up, possibly to check if they could take my order or if they were closing soon. I felt a bit hurried but also unsure if I was being encouraged to place my order. I asked if I could take a moment to browse the menu and was pleasantly surprised to discover that the sandwiches were generously sized and filled with fresh ingredients. I requested my sandwich without spicy Cajun mayo and no tomatoes. While it arrived as ordered--without tomatoes--it unfortunately still had the spicy mayo. Fortunately, they allowed me to keep that sandwich, which was a nice gesture, and promptly remade my order without the spicy mayo. I was grateful for their attentiveness. My friend chose the tuna melt and seemed to thoroughly enjoy it, indulging in half of her sandwich. Each sandwich came with chips and a delightful mini dessert, a whoopie pie. I must say, one sandwich is more than enough to satisfy two, if not three, people. I'll definitely be returning, but I think I'll share a sandwich next time! I took just a couple of bites and already felt full. Thank you again, Wanda; I truly appreciate the wonderful experience you and your team provided. You made our afternoon exceptional! The total for both sandwiches plus a soda into chips we're about $57 with tip $64 And let's not forget the free one that I was able to take home that they allowed me to keep that is exceptional customer service

    So good! The sandwiches are so much, could be shared. It's 2 1/2 pounds of meat. Additionally, we got complimentary drinks. I recommend this place all day long!! Service was so good and owner was so kind and sweet!!

    This deli restaurant is a MUST TRY! Run don't walk, and make sure to double check their hours to ensure they are open when you go. This is a black woman owned business and I was happy to support! The sandwiches are humongous, definitely shareable or can be split into two or three meals. Your sandwich also comes with a large pickle, bag of kettle chips, and a moon pie. I ordered the Spicy Chicken Salad sandwich and it did not disappoint. The chicken tasted extremely fresh and the flavor was absolutely delicious. The bread was also fresh. This sandwich did have more of a kick than I thought it would, so be prepared for that. I also tried the Jerk Turkey Sandwich and that was also amazing. It comes with fresh cut turkey and the mango habanero sauce set it off! This is also pretty spicy as it also comes with jalapeños and pepperoncinis. This is absolutely a place you should visit for lunch or an early dinner. They have seating inside that offers a quick dining experience. I will be back. Highly recommend!

    DON'T JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER ! This place was amazing Wanda (the owner) was nothing but helpful and kind! Love her and her ability to communicate everything on the menu ! I would eat at a restaurant like this any day because of the hospitality. I got there after the lunch rush. The inside was quiet but I hear it gets busy. The sandwich was nothing less than amazing. I loved every bite. Wanda gave me a drink on the house since it was my first time trying and I got chips with my sandwich. Like I said I would definitely eat here again it was perfectly crafted and nothing short of amazing. Such a pleasant experience! Take a look at the beauty, a Dretta Cajun sandwich. Chef's kiss

    Lots an ingredients, quality, and care go into these sandwiches. I always champion local businesses and the story of this one makes it more compelling. As BEHEMOTH as these sandwiches are the only roadblock that I hit when I review this lovely establishment is the price point. At $30 (you heard right) a sandwich I would've probably been a little more choosy with my lunch. If you're treating yourself and supporting a local business, perfect. If you're hungry but on a budget, sorry Charlie.

    Spicy chicken salad sandwich
    Dolce S.

    I have been wanting to try 2nd Healthy eatery for a while now. I'm so glad I did :) Mrs. Kendrick was so welcoming so I'll definitely be back! I got the spicy chicken salad sandwich! It was delicious, spicy and huge! Definitely for two people. It came with a bag of chips. The place is pretty spacious, nice and clean :)

    Messy soggy thick low quality meat
    Joe T.

    They have thick fake meat. It's hard stiff and extremely low quality. Stale bread and this is not cool.

    Ms. Wanda is a jewel. Such a sweet and welcoming person. She immediately made me feel like a friend when she noticed I worked for the same company her husband retired from. I was undecided on what to order and Wanda patiently answered all my questions. Her and her staff provided first class customer service. Shout out to Alexis too! I ordered the salad and my son ordered the pastrami sandwich. Both of which were very good and the portion sizes are made to satisfy your hunger!! The restaurant was very clean and cool, which was a plus because it was an extremely hot day. I definitely will be going back and if you're reading this, I strongly suggest you do the same.

    This is the chicken salad salad. It's huge.
    Janea A.

    The sandwiches are made with quality fresh ingredients. Boars Head, fresh cut veggies, wide variety of breads and condiments. The sandwiches are too big to fit your mouth around. They're definitely made for sharing. And the price reflects that. When I get the chicken salad salad, I put in my good salad bowl, toss it with cracked black pepper and sea salt. I put the dressings one the side but most people don't use it, I toast a baguette, and put out some fresh fruit, cookies and white wine. Voila! Sophisticated delicious lunch that takes 15 minutes to prepare and serves 4-6 people for about $60. The salad is $26. People are taken aback by the price until they get their food and then they're flabbergasted. Wanda is sweet lady and the sandwiches are named after her family. I like the Sherron.

    Philly cheese stake and kale and avocado salad

    The food is great! And the hospitality is tip top! The lady of the shop is so sweet and made sure to check that we enjoyed the food and had what we needed

    I been looking forward to going, but I'm confused about hours of service?

    Open on 11-4p Tuesday through Saturday, close on Monday.

    I was recently diagnosed w/Celiac Disease, an autoimmune condition triggered by gluten. It's like an extremely severe gluten allergy. Are there any protocols in place (i.e. preventing cross contact) that would allow me to safely eat here?…

    We traveled a long distance to come today, Friday 4/8/21 at 12:57. Why are you not open? There is no signage saying why you're closed today!

    Is this place open? I try calling but no success. And I don't live nearby to take a drive. Someone please S.O.S!

    Yes they are open, they close at 5pm not open on Sunday or Monday.

    The best Italian in Bellflower, hands down! :)…read more I ordered the baked manicotti and was quite impressed, perfectly flavored and properly cooked! Their garlic bread and mozzarella sticks were phenomenal as well! The staff were friendly and attentive, and we were wanting for nothing. The place has a good amount of indoor seating, and a huge covered outdoor area in back, and the place is immaculate - clean and well lit. In all we'll certainly be back.

    We went to have dinner at Ricci's Italian in Bellflower a little while ago…read more Nice house salad (9/10) with wonderful italian dressing (9/5/10) and vegetable minestrone soup with small pasta (8.5/10), which adults and kids enjoyed. Our entrees included Chicken parmigiana (8/10), veal parmigiana (7/10) , and bacon carbonara with shrimp (8/10), quite rich and creamy, but not goopy. All quite good. Nice that they have Peroni on tap, tasted fairly fresh (8/10). Veal cutlet portion felt a little undersized but chicken was hearty, and red sauce (both marinara and meat sauce) are deep red, slightly thick and pasty...not a light sauce. Service was friendly and attentive throughout our meal, except for the end (when we suffered a accidental water spill and had to mop it uo ourselves). Garlic bread (6/10) was pale and had no taste of garlic: just butter, salt and pepper. At least it tasted fresh and warm. We had spumoni (9/10) and tiramisu (6/10) for dessert. Enjoyed the spumoni but I would skip tiramisu when coming back: beautifully presented but all the art was on the plate, instead of in the flavor of the tiramisu. Ricci's has been around since 1944. But from the outside and inside, you wouldn't guess that. The building seems pretty modern, as well as the interior, a somewhat classic upscale vibe. I really want to like this place (I have a fondness for historic dining) and I look forward to coming back to try the sandwiches and the pizza, both of which look good.

My first impression was the service, the owner was present and she was super kind and engaging in conversation and I loved that! Second, my sandwich met my expectations!!!

    Since I was out and about in the Lakewood area, I wanted to try someplace new. OJ's was on my list…read moreand 3 minutes from my medical appointment so I hit the Yellow Brick Road looking for a sandwich. OJ's is located in a small strip mall but parking is adequate so no worries there. Having checked out the menu on Yelp, I already knew I wanted the Italian. I had called twice before I drove there but no one picked up so I was relieved they were open. The Italian contains ham, cotto salami, mortadella, and best of all capocollo with provolone. The large is enough for 2 people to split or make 2 meals out of if you're not ravenous. All the lettuce, tomatoes, pepperoncini, and onions were very fresh and the roll was nice and soft. The Works sub must be a real monster. Service was great. My sub was done in a snap and I was ready to go. Very friendly staff working the shop. The only let down was being charged for using a credit card. I didn't see any sign but maybe I just missed it. It was only 75 cents so no biggie but it would be nice if they could tell you there's a charge if you'd rather pay cash. Oh well. I'd like to try some other sandwiches the next time I'm in the neighborhood. Thank you OJ's!
