As a 12 year vegetarian it's refreshing to have a convenient sandwich shop with a multitude of options. Today I got the Vegan Litacanrana (414) with no teriyaki sauce. I ordered off the app. When I went to pick up my order, the team was very polite and I was in and out very quickly. The ambiance seemed very relaxed and those that were eating inside seem happy with their food. My food was still warm and delicious. Will definitely be returning.

My New Go-To Coffee Spot -- You HAVE to Try This Place! I…read morewas just recently introduced to this little gem, and I am so glad I was! From the moment you walk in, the vibe is warm, cute, and incredibly welcoming -- the kind of spot that instantly feels like your place. The drinks are on point. I've tried the iced coffee and the matcha, and both were excellent -- not overly sweet, not watered down, just really well done. But what truly won me over? The breakfast sandwiches. I had a croissant sandwich with sausage, egg, and cheese, and it was chef's kiss -- fresh, high-quality ingredients, generous portions, and packed with flavor. Not a single corner cut. And the service? Amazing. The staff is attentive, friendly, and genuinely makes you feel taken care of. That kind of hospitality is rare and it absolutely elevates the whole experience. This is officially my new coffee spot, hands down. Whether you're stopping in for a quick coffee or sitting down for a full breakfast, do yourself a favor and check this place out. You won't regret it!

Where do I even start about this restaurant?…read more The atmosphere? Welcoming and friendly. The food? Let's just say I was contemplating what dish I wanted to try next WHILE eating my meal- incredible and fresh! I ordered the Butifarra Sandwich, Lomo Saltado, and a PB&J Latte. Butifarra Sandwich: flavorful and super satisfying. It was tender and the bread was soft AND crunchy? Amazing. The yucca fries were a perfect accompaniment. Lomo Saltado: it just hit the spot. This felt like eating a home cooked meal in the very best way. Wholesome and flavorful and fresh! PB&J Latte: this was a cheeky choice for a weekend treat and I was NOT disappointed. Smooth and sweet without being overly sweet thoroughly impressed me. It was pure comfort in a cup. I've been dreaming about this restaurant since trying it for the first time.

It's truly a hidden gem. Once we sat down and placed our order, that's when the smell of the food started coming through, and it made the wait even more worth it. I ordered the pulled ham sandwich, and even though it sounds simple, the flavor and combination of everything, especially with the yuca fries, was really impressive. The spicy sauce they give on the side is also really good and ties everything together. My partner got the green chicken pasta (I can't remember the name), and that was just as delicious. Definitely something I'd order again. We also tried the arroz con leche coffee, which was amazing. I'll probably try it with caffeine next time since we came closer to closing for dinner. The space is ambient and spacious, and the staff were friendly and helpful when explaining the menu, which makes a big difference when you're not sure what to get. They also have free parking outside, it's handicap accessible, and there are restrooms available. One thing to note--it's a cashless place, so make sure to bring a card. I'm definitely coming back to try more of the menu.

I'm really happy I got a chance to visit Pickle Banh Mi! This place makes the best banh mi i've had…read morein a long time and I grew up eating Banh Mi lol. We got their roast pork banh mi which was very delicious. It was savory and tender. Perfectly made. Lots of garnish as well. We also got their banh mi thit nuong which, as a classic banh mi option, would be something I'd definitely get again here as well. To top it off, we got their bo kho which is one of my childhood favorites. We came in with the plan on eating half of all the sandwiches and taking the rest home, but everything was so good that we ate everything at the restaurant lol. Service was very fast. Very professional. Presentation of the food was top tier (something you typically don't see at a banh mi establishment). Ambiance was a little noisy and busy. Lots of customers came in while we dined here. I can see why this place is poppin!

Drove from Gardena to pickup two sandwiches and I am satisfied! So the cashier was training I believe bc it said trainee on the receipt and I asked what the two most popular sandwiches were... she said classic and grilled pork .. so upon my research I read about crispy pork.. and she said that was also good... so I ended up getting crispy pork and grilled pork Crispy pork which I hope was crispy (heo quay) it says pork belly on the receipt and not crispy pork belly idk if that's different? But it doesn't matter bc it was SOOO GOOD, Creamy buttery soft and slightly crispy Then the grilled pork (thit nuong) was okay pork belly was way better. It had more of a savory bbq taste to it and that's about it... idk if the cashier was new and stressed bc it was busy but if this was the most popular I would not get it again lol. I will come back just for the crispy pork belly sandwich Bomb.. i just ate one whole sandwich and could probably kill another half...

My husband and I had such a great experience at Nonna Mercato's in Bixby Knolls! We started off…read moreour meal with Nonna's Cultured Butter & Jam Classic Country Bread. For our main course, I had the Rigatoni with fennel sausage, rucola, lemon & chili and my husband had the Steak Frites with aspen hanger steak, fresh cut frites & bearnaise sauce. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the service was friendly and very attentive. Everything was fresh and thoughtfully prepared, and it's clear they put a lot of care into what they do. The seating is outdoors in a nice patio area. Inside there is a bakery with yummy looking breads, cakes, muffins, croissants, coffees & more. This restaurant is a great addition to the neighborhood & definitely a place I'll be coming back to! Please be advised that there is little or no parking in their back lot but street parking is available. The yummies inside or worth the seeking a parking space. I recommend this neighborhood gem.

I've been to Nonna Mercato a few times, previously just for bakery/coffee items to go, but most…read morerecently to have lunch on their patio. Bakery Review - solid pastries and coffee, but one pastry I had previously and recalled being a stand out, was not great the next time I got it, so what seems like it should be consistently good is perhaps not. Restaurant Review - very fussy table policy...there were at least 6 tables open and they wouldn't seat 2 out of 3 of our party until all of us were there. I get it if you're busy/have a waitlist, but to make us stand there while the table we eventually had sat empty the entire time we waited was a little annoying. Then, at the end of our meal, they told us our time at the table had expired. Really? In terms of the food, it was fine, nothing to write home about. It was more the service that was so off putting. The coffee was cold when served. At the end of the meal our server asked if we wanted desert, and when we asked for a desert menu he just said "Oh, you need to just go inside and look." It could have been worded more appropriately to say something like "We have great pastries and treats inside if you have room for desert" rather than "Would you like desert?", which leads to a dead end since he didn't offer any. And after reading other reviews, I wonder if we would have been allowed to eat those pastries at the table anyway? I'm in the area frequently, but will try other places going forward after these last couple of disappointing visits.

The service was spot on and friendly, in addition, we were asked if we wanted anything heated up. The ambiance is light and airy with windows all around. Items on display make it easy to pick out whatever you like. Highly recommend a trip to the Cream Pan. Unfortunately, we devoured our treats before I remembered to take a photo.

A month ago, they raised their prices quite hefty probably due to the inflation and tariffs. I was okay with this price increase. However a week ago, I bought and ate an apple pie (apple croissant) and while eating, I noticed in my mouth there was something sharp and metal. I took it out and saw that it was this metal piece that was IN the baked good! Like how does this even happen! I even feed the baked goods to my 1.5 year old toddler and if my kid ate it, I woulda had to take him to the ED! I am extremely disappointed by this and I don't think I would like to go back. This is a shame since I really liked this bakery. Other customers please be aware... there maybe some metal piece in your food...
