I've been wanting to try Ggiata Delicatessen for a while now, and recently made it happen. I was in Santa Monica for work and decided to head over to Venice for a quick lunch. I ordered The Spicy P ($16.00), featuring a chicken cutlet, spicy vodka sauce, mozzarella, basil pesto, grated Romano, and fresh basil, all on a grilled seeded baguette. As a big fan of Chicken Parm, a dish I enjoyed often growing up, I was thrilled to find a place serving it on the West Coast. I used to get chicken parm subs regularly when I lived in MA, so it was wonderful to find something that brought back those familiar flavors - a truly authentic East Coast-style sandwich. I appreciated the chewiness of the seeded baguette and the sesame seeds added a nice textural element. The bread was soft and fresh, and the chicken cutlets were excellent, smothered in gooey, cheesy goodness. While I loved the spicy vodka sauce, it wasn't very spicy, especially for a sandwich named "Spicy."I really enjoyed the Spicy P and would definitely order it again, but I'd also like to come back and try The Crispy Chicken Caesar Wrap next time. Ggiata is definitely worth checking out. I recommend ordering online in advance to avoid a long wait. They have a few stools inside and chairs outside, but it's better to take it to go and enjoy the beach or people-watch in Venice. read more

Came here to grab lunch cause I heard their wraps were amazing. The store was super busy and very small. 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. read more

Ggiata deserves their flowers. I always order an Italian sandwich whenever I try a new deli, and this is THE one... 5/5 Italian Sandwich - Ggiata figured out the golden ratio. There are a few details that make their Italian stand out: the bread is on the thinner side, toasted, and textured with sesame seeds. The banana peppers cut through all the layers of meat and cheese. Overall, a satisfying and thoughtfully-constructed sandwich. There wasn't a line to order, but the kitchen was busy with pick-up and delivery orders. I also think this is more of a to-go situation because seating is very limited, but you can enjoy your sandwich on the beach just a few steps away. Worth the 30-minute wait and inconvenient parking in Venice, lol. read more

Probably the best bowl I've ever had! I can't recall the exact name but it came with a huge piece of chicken schnitzel and the salad was delicious too. I don't live nearby but if I did, I would go here all the time. It's definitely a great value for the money. read more

Got the chicken parm, Chinese chicken salad, and spicy parm. Not worth the hype imo. The location can't be beat - right in the heart of Venice beach - and it's got a great vibe. Parking isn't bad. But the chicken salad had all the wrong proportions and the flavors didn't mix well. The apple pieces were too big and there were barely any greens. The sandwiches were basic. We were expecting more. Ordered through the website and the food was ready quickly and packaged well. Just disappointed that the food, which we expected to be epic and gourmet, was just meh. read more

My boyfriend picked me up from LAX, so we decided to try this place my old roommate used to rave about, and there was definitely a reason for it. It was the weekend, so it was a little hard to find parking in this area but not impossible, thankfully. The inside is very cute, quiet, and small, although there's not really space to eat inside, so we decided to take our sandwiches to eat by the beach. The man who took our order was very nice, although we could tell they were very busy since he was multitasking while taking our order. The food, however, so so good. I have been craving it since we got it. I decided to get the Crispy Chicken Caesar Wrap, and I haven't stopped thinking about it. Granted, I always love a Caesar salad, it is my favorite of the salads, but their dressing was very peppery, and they even gave us extra to pour on top as a side (which I am grateful for because I douse all my food in extra sauce). My boyfriend got the Spicy Vodka Parm Sandwich, which is a hot sandwich with Mozzarella, Chicken Cutlets, and Vodka Sauce. This was also very good; however, it did give us a little bit of heartburn, but not unexpectedly as it was a tomato-based spicy sandwich, so it was worth it. It was averagely priced as well, so I would definitely come back next time I'm in LA. I will say that we did have to wait a while for our food. We attributed it to them being very busy, and it was our fault for getting hot food if we wanted it fast, so we weren't upset by it; we just will keep that in mind for the next time. read more

Ggiata located in Venice is super close to the ocean! This place offers fresh sandwiches that can be taken to the beach or wherever you'd like to go. They also have a few tables and chairs outside for you to sit at. I ordered the spicy chicken parm for mine and my friend had the Italian with a side of arancini. The side of arancini tasted so delicious and I would say you need to separately order it for how many people you have. We only got one and I thought it wasn't enough. The spicy chicken parm wasn't spicy wish it was a tad bit more but overall it was still good and I would come back to try the other sandwich items they have as well. read more

Very cool lookin place. The owner did a great job decorating this sandwich shop. Now back to the cons - its not recommended eating inside because the loud speaker is blasting loud music and you feel uncomfortable. I got pastrami sandwich with a cheesecake. Cheesecake was most likely outsourced - was a high quality and tasty desert. Sandwich was pretty tasty too. But the chewy meat and stale hard to chew bread is what made it bad. Like have you guys tried your own product? And it end up being $26 with no drink lol. Overpriced overhyped mediocre food. read more

The restaurant is right next to the Venice sign so you'll get a lot of tourists here. I've always gotten a different sandwich each time and the best part is that it's on InKind so you'll can order and comeback to get your food while you take some pictures. Service is alright and can be hit or miss. The decor is decent and fits in with the Southern California vibe read more

This place is right under the Venice sign so you know it's gonna cost a little bit more cause it's right in the heart Venice. The thing is it does cost more but it's worth it because the sandwiches are really amazing. The air is a little dodgy if you're looking for someplace for a date or but if you're just coming to get a sandwich and you want something three steps above Subway and a step under a sit down restaurant this is great. It's not cheap but the people that work there are really great and I love it. read more

The Caesar wrap with grilled chicken is quite possibly the best wrap I've ever had. The Caesar salad itself is fresh and wonderfully flavored with a fantastic Caesar dressing. The grilled chicken is reminiscent of thinly sliced chicken shawarma, packing both the flavors of being roasted and a nice marinade. Many people probably opt for the crispy chicken cutlet, but I think the grilled chicken is a clear winner. Crispy thin chicken often tends to be on the dry side. And c'mon if you're going to have a salad wrap, you might as well make it with grilled chicken and not fried. The wrap either way is going to be delicious. The tortilla is also fresh and perfectly chewy and robust enough to keep the wrap together without being too dense. But the best part is the Caesar ranch dressing that comes on the side. If you like your ranch dressing to be onion and garlic forward, you will love this dressing as much as I do. Hands down the best ranch dressing and it levels up the flavor of each bite to a ten. (Pro tip, if you have any French fries, chips or fresh vegetable sticks nearby, dip away. It is perfect). The shop is small, busy and not air conditioned, so the wait might feel a little tedious. But this wrap makes it all worthwhile, read more

Visited this Ggiata for the first time on a holiday. It's a small location with a few tables inside and on the busy sidewalk. Like most locations in this area, there is no dedicated parking lot. We parked along a curb about 3/4 of a mile away. The menu was posted on the wall and we ordered at the counter. We ordered The Madeline,The Draper, Buttermill Biscuits & Jam, The Eggplant Parm, Rosemary Parm Hash Browns and The Turk. The wait for our food was about 30 minutes. But since they took my number to notify us when our food was ready, we took a walk in the area. Our food was delicious! The sandwiches were large and quite filling. The veggies in the sandwiches tasted incredible fresh. The favorite of the meal was hands-down, the biscuits and jam. The crust was light and crisp with good consistency (think muffin top). The inside was super light and fluffy with perfect chewiness. The jam was perfectly sweet and tangy. Service was helpful and friendly. There was no restroom. We will definitely return. read more

Where has this place been my entire life?! Ggiata has officially taken over my cravings, and I'm not mad about it. I am addicted to the crispy chicken Caesar wrap--and I don't use that word lightly. Hands down the best chicken Caesar wrap I've ever had. The chicken is perfectly crispy, the Caesar is bold and flavorful, the wrap is perfectly balanced, and somehow it all just works. No sogginess, no skimping--just straight-up perfection every single time. It is a little on the spicy side so if you don't like a kick, ask for no peppers. I've reached the point where I'm ordering it multiple times a week, and it never gets old. If you're even remotely considering it, stop thinking and just order the wrap. Ggiata, you've ruined all other chicken Caesar wraps for me--and I thank you for it. Prices are fair, but there is no ambiance at this location at all. Unfortunately there are frequent homeless people going in and out of the restaurant- I guess that's just the area? I also wish there were tables to eat inside, not just one small counter facing the wall. read more

Yummy sandwiches. Large. A bit expensive though. The turkey I got was yummy but didn't care for the sweet sauce used in it.

Mixed review. Overall the food was good, but the taste was not what I was expecting. The Spicy P was not spicy at all, I repeat, there was not an ounce of spice taste. I was waiting to have more complex flavors, even bites of more salt, but there wasn't that. The best bites had the basil, but the rest was middle of the road. The food came out quick and hot. The little store was cute. I don't know if I'd return. read more

I've had the spicy p sandwich twice now and I do enjoy it. if you're not a big eater, split the sandwich with a friend. I think the prices here are a little expensive but if you like a good sandwich I think you'll enjoy it. want to try a wrap the next time I go back. this isn't a place I would go out of my way for, but it's yummy whenever I get a sandwich here found street parking near the traffic circle. parking is a bit tough here (near great white restaurant) so you might have to park a little further and walk to get here. read more

I was visiting LA and had just had a beach afternoon and lunch on an outdoor patio, but on our walk home we drifted by Ggiata's and . . . omg. That Italian-deli smell of pepperoni and simmering gravy somewhere is gonna get you--or at least it does me, having grown up in the Bay Area and later living in NYC, where you *know* was that fab deli smell is. We picked up salads for later: the classic chopped salad (yes!! my fave!) and a Chinese chicken salad, and of course some meatballs, and I think one of us snuck an eggplant parm in that order too. Yeah, this is the stuff! What I love even more is that their tomato sauce is just a teeny bit less sweet than usual; maybe a bit of a Cali twist? Anyhow, it's delicious, and this friendly little hole in the wall was a very happy find. read more

I love a good sandwich! Here, I ordered the Spicy P, which is a spicy chicken parm sandwich. I was able to taste every single ingredient in this sandwich, down to the sesame seeds on the bread! It was warm, tasty, and everything was perfectly seasoned and fresh. This sandwich was big, but I ate the whole thing and felt perfectly full. I split and shared my sandwich with my friend, who usually orders the regular chicken parm, even they prefer the spicy p. You can definitely taste the spicy vodka sauce. The menu was so intriguing, everything sounded delicious. I'd love to come back and try another sandwich soon. As far as the restaurant, it's so tiny! With very limited seating but it is cute and cozy inside, so it makes it great for people watching. I came on a Saturday afternoon and they seemed perfectly busy but no one lingered inside unless they're eating or waiting on an order. However, I left thinking the employees could be a little more inviting or friendlier. We felt like they were passive aggressive and cold or annoyed throughout the interactions. They also just yell the name for the order for pick up. They called for mine, I stood up and waited by the counter as they finished packing my order. A few seconds go by before the employee shouts my name again, while I'm standing in front of her face. The place is tiny, hardly anyone was there, besides our group of 3, and a couple having their food there. I thought it was obvious as to who was picking up the food or what I stood up for. Even if she forgot that was my order, and thought that I was a new customer placing a new order, I'd still be upset about someone shouting a name in my face before acknowledging me or saying to hold for a moment. read more

I was soooo excited to try this because caesar wraps have been so big on the east coast and I have been craving one here all summer and many reviewers have raved about Ggiata. Finally tried it out at the Venice location and I must say that although I have had better, this is definitely up there. Love the peppers chopped in and the sauce tasted fantastic. Great selection of soft drinks as well and the "up-scale" neighborhood deli vibe was awesome. A great lunch spot if you're shopping/walking around Venice! read more

I couldn't decide what sandwich so I went with one that I thought they definitely couldn't mess up on. I chose three: Italian, spicy P, buffalo wrap. I couldn't believe the Italian was the worst one which I least expected. The bread was so hard I couldn't even bite it off and it's so thick that every bite pushes the meat off and everything just fell apart. Spicy p and buffalo were decent but nothing crazy. Probably wouldn't come back a second time! read more

The sandwiches here are bomb! Service is always fast and the food takes 10 minutes. I work next door and have eaten here 20+ times and they never miss on the flavor.

Lunch time and I'm craving a salad. My coworker said they have salads. I ordered the Chinese chicken salad. If I'm honest I wasn't impressed. I asked if they could make it a wrap and they gladly obliged. Can I just tell you how friggin delicious it was. Whatever they use for the wrap tastes fresh and homemade. Not to mention the dressing/sauce is amazing. They play good music on a booming Marshal speaker creating a good vibe that makes time fly. Even though they are busy they push out the orders fresh and quick. I've had a few of their breakfast sandwiches and those are amazing. I highly recommend this place. read more

This is a great sandwich so shop on the corner of Windward & Pacific. I stopped by for a quick snack, and I decided to get the Crispy Chicken Caesar Wrap. I've been seeing it on TikTok, so I really wanted to try it out. After I ordered, the cashier told me it would be around a 15 minute wait, which was pretty accurate. Although the wait was a little longer than a typical sandwich place, I didn't mind because the vibes inside were pretty nice. There are a few seating options inside but very minimal. I liked that we have a clear view of the kitchen area where the workers are preparing the food. I enjoyed watching the process of them making the sandwiches and wraps while I waited. Overall, it was a great experience, and the wrap was delicious. It came with a sauce/dressing on the side, but I felt like the wrap was pretty flavorful as it was. read more

I'm a Philly girl & this jawn is tits up! 10/10 Great Beef 10/10 Great Sesame roll 10/10 Grilled onions, Garlic Aioli, order extra on the side if you like a dip like me & Pepperchinis for a little spicy. xx ash read more

I went in for lunch today with my two small pups. Both pups were on a tight leash, not roaming or bothering anyone. I asked for a cup, to pour my bottled water into. The guy at the register gave me one (free of charge! Thanks!). I poured my water into my cup, when I went to sit on the bench (inside) to wait for my sandwich, my pups tripped me up a little. Which made my water sprinkle on the floor. I immediately asked for a few napkins, and began wiping it up. The cashier with a rude look on his face, pushed a container of wipes on the counter towards me. I asked him what it was for? He said "TO CLEAN UP THE PISS ON THE FLOOR". I told him it was just a bit of water, and he then said "IT LOOKS LIKE PISS". In front of other customers. He was so unnecessarily rude to me for no reason. It was embarrassing. This was my second time at this location, and I will never be back. You should really treat your customers with kindness and respect. I was nothing but polite to the cashier. read more
