The service is very efficient and friendly. When you pay for your meal they always tell you that they will come by and clean up ie pick up trash and clean your table after you are done eating.

However, since we came at night time where most of them were closed, we got parking right in front. This spot is more of a take-away place, with 6 counter seatings indoors, and maybe 3 chairs right out front. This tiny burger spot seems to be run by just one person, so it helps that you can self-order at their kiosk. He was very attentive juggling between cooking the made-to order items, and check in on the costumers in case they had questions. After placing my order at their one device, it was roughly a 15 minutes wait. Here's what we ordered: CHEESEBURGER - $9.90 High-quality beef patty smashed with grilled onions, serviced on a toasted Martin's potato bun and topped with pickles and their fry sauce. I really enjoyed this rich tasting burger. I think that fry sauce was a huge factor...but also that soft bun...and that flavorful beef patty. I really enjoyed this. FRIES - $5.25 Golden Thing-Cut Fries. Perfect. I mean this was made to order so they were warm, crispy and so dang good! It's how fries everywhere should be! I was hoping to come back during my trip in LA, but it's okay, it won't be the last time I visit.

We've been ordering from FTW for months because whenever i think of a smash burger, its either the…read moreones i make myself or the ones from FTW. The crispy lace edges, the juicy center, the grilled onion, the slightly spicy sauce, the slightly sweet bun...all dreamworthy! Their sweet potato fries aren't all that great to look at, but omg, always perfectly cooked and salted! Perfectly complimented with the fry sauce. All that said, we were disappointed when we received our last order: 1. Packaging change (paper wrapped instead of cardboard box for the burgers) robbed the craveable edges of their crispness. Plus there was so much grease on the paper wraps it actually made it messier to eat than before. 2. The sauce has changed. The spice level increased (still not too spicy), but a side of sauce (which you pay more than a $1 for) is now sent in a premade branded packet. I have zero issues paying extra for a good sauce made fresh in-house, but instead of tasting like a fresh sauce made with mayo and spices, it now tastes of oil and spices and is not nearly as tasty. We noticed the difference on the burgers as well, so it seems like their sauce is all premade now and not nearly as good.

It was always a real treat. As a teenager I dated a couple of the girls that worked there so I was there on the regular in those days. In my 20's I lived right up the street and hit them up quite often. I don't get there as much as I'd like nowadays but when I do, it is always consistently great. Times have definitely changed but Connal's quality food and super customer service has not! I am a huge Combination Grinder fan and have not ordered anything different for well over 30 years. They are always stacked with lots of high quality cold cuts and delicious Provolone, crisp shredded Lettuce,thin sliced Onions and Vinegar and Oil on a delicious French Roll. In my teens and 20's I did try many samplings on their vast menu and as memory serves, everything was always delicious. Today's Grinder absolutely hit the spot! It had been a while since I last tasted one but the Combo Grinder most definitely never disappoints. I went for it, and got Zings (Zucchini Sticks and Onion Rings). Super hot, crisp and very tasty, especially with some Bleu Cheese Dressing. Jesse took my order and he was very personable and showed me some excellent customer service. If you are looking for some great grub, you cannot lose with Sandwiches By Connal. It is not the original owners but they have kept the same quality and standards over the years.

It is so rare to have an onion ring nowadays that doesn't slide out of the batter. Will be back!!

Situated in the corner of California and Lake, parking can be quite difficult especially at lunch or dinner hours. Plan accordingly because it can get quite busy around prime dining hours. They specialize in pollo la brasa, Peruvian roast chicken and it's truly delicious. You have the choice of 1/4, 1/2 and whole chicken meals which comes with 2 sides. There are also family meals for larger parties as well. Indoor seating is on the smaller side so it does get filled fast. Inside they also sell Peruvian snacks and drinks, has a small market type of feel. Plenty of outdoor seating as well. Chicken is super flavorful, juicy and delicious. Do get extra sauces because it is delicious. I like the yellow more than the green. Green has a good spice as well. Plantains, sweet potato fries are my favorite sides so far. Can't want to come back to try some more of the menu.

This location was difficult to find because there isn't a noticeable sign out front. My GPS told me I arrived, but I thought it was wrong. It is adjacent to a gas station. and just not somewhere I would notice easily. The inside is nice and clean and had quite a few customers. It is also a deli and market. The beverages as well as all kinds of cooked and packaged snack snacks are scattered throughout the room. This business has high reviews on Yelp, which is why we chose it. I ordered one of the most basic roast chicken dishes. The chicken was definitely tender and appeared very high-quality as it was not huge pieces. But my chicken was pink in some areas - not cooked enough for my comfort level. The skin was soft. I'm not sure if that is a cultural difference, but I have not had roast chicken without crispy skin even at other Peruvian establishments. The seasoning, however, was very good and the sauces were also delicious. I got the cucumber tomato salad on the side, which tasted fantastic with the green sauce added in. The garlic fries were also on the limp side for me. I don't know again if that is a cultural difference . I felt like it needed a second fry. I did enjoy the garlic and herb sprinkled on the fries and took them home to air fry them to make them crispier. I am not sure if it was an off day for us. My friend had similar feedback on her dish. We both ordered the same thing except she ordered the white meat and I ordered the dark meat. Like I said, I'm definitely in the minority of not liking it that much. I have some favorites in the area for grilled chicken and would probably opt for those.

Both order the exact same thing, one right after the other. A few minutes later, both orders are called. First guy gets his order and says he needs more red salsa. He gets more salsa, no questions, no charge. Second guy gets his exact same order immediately after. He asks if he can have an extra salsa. He's told it's an extra $0.75. There was no pause, no gap in between the 2 men's interactions. Literally stood next to each other, ordered the same thing, one got free salsa, the other got charged. A table full of people nearby, tilt their heads and cock their eyebrows in disbelief. Free salsa guy happens to be White. Paid salsa guy is Asian. Coincidence? You can decide for yourself. We all know discrimination and prejudice exists. It's an unfortunate part of life. I'm no stranger to it. It's usually not quite this overt. This was a little too blatant to just sweep under the rug. Is having to spend an extra $0.75 a big deal? No. Is blatant discrimination? It's enough to stop supporting this business.
