Ahhhhh I finally got to try a viral/trendy place to eat in LA. This sandwich was so so worth it!…read moreThe price is seemingly alot but you get 2 regular sized sandos in one. I got the #1 bestseller and it did NOT disappoint. I can see why someone wouldn't like it because it is rather plain but I prefer plain sandwiches myself. I like the ingredients to speak for themselves and not be coated in extra sugar or salt. I'm also a big fan of pistachio, the amount they put on is not for the faint of heart... hehe This place is clean, the line is efficient and friendly. I recommend stopping by. I came here as recommendation from Joshua Weissman's YT video of trying LA foods.

All'Antico Vinaio, a renowned Florence-based sandwich shop established in 1991, is celebrated for…read moreits generous schiacciata bread sandwiches, featuring imported Italian meats, cheeses, and spreads. This location on Wilshire Blvd in Koreatown is the smallest of the three I've visited, with under 10 seats available. It's a compact shop, and most customers opt for takeout. It's a narrow shop, and most customers take their orders to-go. I've previously enjoyed the La Paradiso and La Toscana, with the La Paradiso being my personal favorite. For our first visit with our son, we asked the staff for recommendations, and they suggested either the Venice Beach (Turkey) or the New Yorker (Roast Beef). The staff was incredibly generous, offering a roast beef sample, which our son loved! We also appreciated them providing ice and straws for our water. We ordered the New Yorker ($19.00) with roast beef, porcini cream, tomato, and arugula. The sandwich was thoughtfully cut in half, perfect for sharing. The schiacciata bread boasts a crispy exterior and a soft, chewy interior, which beautifully complements the meats and cheeses. We opted to substitute the porcini cream for mozzarella, which was sliced into perfect bite-sized pieces and tasted incredibly fresh. The roast beef was thinly sliced and tender, the tomatoes were fresh and sliced to perfection, and the arugula added a delightful peppery crunch. It's a well-balanced sandwich and one of the best in LA. We would definitely order it again. A big thank you to the female staff member who expertly cut the meat and offered samples, assisting us in making the perfect choice for my son's sandwich. This experience was truly a positive one for our family. I would definitely return to AAV for the excellent food and service. Given the small size of the shop, takeout is recommended, especially during peak hours. The sandwiches at AAV are so good! Fuggedaboutit!

Italy's quality cold cut sandwiches have landed in LA. The bread is fresh and delicious. The meats…read moreand cheeses are high quality. La Paradiso is the goat. If it's your first time here, or you're not sure what to get, then order this (unless you have a nut allergy). The meat, cheese, and pistachio paste will change your life. It's the best sandwich.

Be aware of a GOOD thing...these sandwiches are HUGE!!…read more We had the Caprese and the Veggie and clearly we could have shared one sandwich as we ended up having half and then having the other half for dinner at home. For five dollars extra you can upgrade and include a drink and a bag of potato chips. Very good food, the bread was fresh out of the oven and the ingredients were amazing. Outside seating in a nice shaded patio. I definitely recommend.

I ordered only because it was an UberEats special. Boy and I glad I did!…read more I had the Tuna sandwich and the hour wait was worth it! The bread is what makes this sandwich amazing! I will be back for sure!

Another DTLA goldmine…read more I ordered the Cold Sando (6") with mayo, provolone, Black Forest ham, tomato, easy onions, and pickles on the side. Let me just say this thing was the BOMB. Everything tasted fresh, the ingredients were high quality, and every bite was packed with flavor. It's one of those sandwiches that's simple, but done so well that you immediately know you'll be craving it again. If you're in Downtown LA and looking for a great sandwich spot, Ghost Sando is definitely worth checking out. 10/10. I'll definitely be back!

Huge sandwich and definitely worth the price! I got the large sandwich and couldn't even finish it…read more It was packed with meat and loaded with fresh veggies. The cashier was very friendly and answered all my questions since it was my first visit. She gave me a recommendation, and it turned out great! They have big TVs on both walls, so it was cool watching the baseball game while eating. Their pizza looked amazing too. I definitely want to come back and try the pizza and pasta next time.

Classic fast and affordable Italian subs, dishes and pizza. It's not fine dining, but a solid value for the price. The pepperstake sub is an absolute classic!

Abundant and delicious food! Great for casual dining with partners, friends and family. The staff…read moretook our orders swiftly and we got our food pretty fast. 5/5 The soujouk khachapuri was soft and delicious, the best part was getting a bit of egg, cheese and slice of pepperoni. It's almost like a mini pizza but with delicious crisper crust that isn't overbaked. 4/5 Fried Cod Laffa had a magical mix of flavor. Personally I love the contrast between the texture of the cod and the variety of fresh vegetables. The sauce complimented and brought all the ingredients together. The soft yet firm Laffa held this hefty meal. Had to eat half for lunch and half for another time. It fills you up! I would get this again when I'm here. The interior has this gorgeous overhead natural light with some hanging plants that almost like introducing a bit of natural nature indoors. Seating - some barstool like seating and around 4 double seaters. If you have a big party of people - it's better to get it as takeout! Restroom? Yes; but didn't use. Parking? Yes; street parking

Ordered two cheesesteak subs through Uber Eats and was super disappointed…read more I've gotten their meatball subs before and they were pretty good But these were not able to even be finished- the bread was really gross- poor quality, we took most of it off actually The meat was not flavorful Overall really gross :(

I went back to Bay Cities sixteen years after my initial 3-star review, and honestly, my rating…read morestill stands. The Godmother is good but disproportionately acclaimed, and I'd never wait in line to get it. Thankfully, it's easy to order ahead. I did this through DoorDash on the drive over to Santa Monica, where we were already headed to catch a Sunday afternoon play. We walked in and saw the zoo at the deli counter, then learned that DoorDash pick-ups were in a different corner of the grocery. There was a confusing sign that indicated "catering & on-line pick up around the corner to the left," which in its ambiguous phrasing, led me to a place I wasn't supposed to go (it was apparently only for catering orders, but what about "catering & on-line pick up" excludes DoorDash orders?). A snippy employee cast me out and completely ignored my explanation about the sign. But other than that, the pick-up was quick and painless, much better than waiting in that line. It was like going to the DMV with an appointment vs. without (one of my favorite Broad City gags). We looked around the store, which was quite nice, a sizable gourmet grocery with lots of wine, deli goods, tinned fish, etc. My husband bought a lemonade and learned that Bay Cities doesn't take credit cards. (He was able to use an ATM card.) We took our pick-up order, bagged in a maximal amount of plastic, and grabbed one a handful of shaded tables in front of the store. We'd planned to take our sandwiches to a park, but this was a pleasant place to eat. I got the Godmother with the works: prosciutto, ham, capicola, mortadella, Genoa salami, and Provolone; hot peppers (you can also get mild), Italian dressing, mayo, yellow mustard, lettuce, onion, tomato, and pickles, all on a fresh Italian roll. The bread was great, sturdy with a good crunch, and I liked the sandwich well enough. It was OK+ for sure, just not really a standout in my map of Los Angeles sandwiches. I also ordered a side of snap pea salad, with fresh snap peas, mandarin orange, black sesame seeds, sesame oil, and salt. I love snap peas but I guess I don't love them quite this raw and underdressed. This was a disappointment. If I lived in Santa Monica, I might go to Bay Cities more than once every 16 years. But unless I'm still missing something, it's not really worth a drive.

Easy. Fast. Satisfying…read more And...Mom approved! I didn't want to make dinner after a long day at work and then running my kid to an activity. It was getting late, so while I waited for the kid in the car at their activity, I went on The Heights website found an order form and placed an order for some sammies all in 5 minutes. I didn't even ask the hubs or the vegetarian kid what they wanted. I went with what I thought they'd like. 15-minutes later, I was picking the sandwiches up at the walk-in only shop. There was no line and better yet, they were wrapped up and ready to go when I walked in. The smiling lady asked if I wanted napkins or utensils. They have case after case of cold drinks so we picked out a couple of drinks, paid for those and left. It was easy and fast. Enjoyed the yumminess at home. I normally would save a half for another meal but my "Pasadena" hit the spot that I finished it up all at once. Quality bread, meats, cheese, fillings aka all the ingredients...to boot! PS the kid loved theirs and so did the hub. Thanks for making dinner: easy and delicious! There are no pictures because it was too delicious to take the time out and take any. Just order.

Cozy deli and wine/ beer store…read more The parking is small, but cars don't stay long as people are picking up things to go. When I entered, I was immediately greeted. I ordered a few sandwiches. They were made to order and still fast service. The sandwiches were delicious. Generous portions, freshly sliced deli meats, and fresh lettuce and tomatoes. While I didn't get any, they have a cool selection of wines and beers. They have very helpful descriptions too.

Spectacular wrap! Super fresh and balanced flavors…read more It was super big too, it would last me entire day to finish it. Order took little longer which is expected for fresh and good food, popular place. Will be back.

There's not a ton of room to stand to wait so I'd recommend ordering ahead to pick up. Parking was impossible too so if you can walk I'd recommend that or park in the neighborhoods somewhere. I ordered the Grilled Chicken Caesar Wrap and it was large so you definitely get your bang for your buck. It came with a side of caesar dressing which I felt it needed as the wrap it self was a little dry due to having light dressing. The chicken was fresh which I loved and they even included croutons inside. Overall the wrap was very good! Next time, I'll be ordering it to be delivered.

Since it was definitely too hot to cook and I had a long drive home, I decided to pick up some sandwiches for the trip. I ordered three: a regular meatball, a regular Godfather, and a regular turkey Tuscano. Honestly, I can't decide which one was my favorite. I cut them all in half and shared them, and I ended up having the turkey Tuscano the next day for my lunch--and it was still just as good. The place is right with their name--the bread was fantastic. It was still crunchy yet soft even after being in the refrigerator overnight. The Godfather was also fantastic, and all of the meats on the sandwiches were killer. I sadly only got a few bites of the meatball because my husband annihilated it, but that's honestly a compliment. I'll definitely be hitting All About the Bread up again when I'm in West Hollywood. The staff was friendly too. Rafael took my order, and when I asked for recommendations, he was the one who actually recommended the Tuscano. I also made the sandwiches really quick since I was taking mine to go for my drive back to Orange County.
