    Got a to-go order from Ggiata on a weekday afternoon. Service was friendly, and got my order quick. I tried their Cheesesteak sandwich, which was a decent portion size for the price and tasty. Loved the portion of meat and cheese compared to the bun, and it satisfied my mid day cravings.

    This place is delicious. Hit the spot. I had the cheesesteak and it didn't disappoint. The meatball parm was also fabulous. I'd come back here easily. Portion size was regular, not overly huge and not small.

    I appreciate this spot. One of my favorite beach meals. Easy. Good food, decent prices, great quality ingredients. The service is always nice. They were so busy with online orders when I got there, ridiculous amount lined up along the counters in their tiny prep area. Hustling hard! I still got my walk in order quickly. Nice werrkkk. I love their salads, chop was excellent today. Obsessed with the eggplant fries. Seasoned well and comes with a delicious aioli dip. Hard to decide with so many great options on the menu.

    chicken schnitzel salad

    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.

    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.

    The Burr. Only took a few bites.

    Ordered The Burr and Eggplant Fries. I've ordered both before and they were great. Not this time. The Burr(Tuna) tastes super tangy, acidic and spoiled. Not fresh at all. Tastes like it's been sitting for a while. Stomach began to hurt after only a few bites. Tossed sandwich just to be on the safe side. Food safety is a must. They also missed the order notes. There was only a sliver of avocado instead of the usual portion. The Eggplant fries tasted fine. Smaller portion. Super disappointing.

    Do not walk by this spot! They have the BEST Caesar wrap in LA. Hands down! It's GOLDEN! (Get the crispy- carb free on days that end in Y)

    Crispy Chicken Caesar Wrap

    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.

    Up close friends sandwich
    Francine L.

    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.

    Fast service, great sandwiches and great wraps. A great option if you're looking to pick something up and enjoy on the beach.

    Caesar wrap with grilled chicken
    Kevin L.

    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,

    Chicken parm sandwich
    Tony T.

    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

    Rosemary Parm Hash browns
    Paula F.

    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.

The staff are dressed in matching white t-shirts and pants, and the shirts say "All-Day Cafe." However, we walked in a little after 3:00 PM and found out we couldn't order smoothies (which end at 3:00) or breakfast items (which end much earlier at 11:00). For an "all-day cafe," that felt like a bit of a misrepresentation. ​Since it was very, very hot outside, I was disappointed that they were serving lukewarm water. Unfortunately, there was no vegan pizza on the menu, but our first waiter was very, very nice and friendly, and he had the kitchen accommodate us by omitting the cheese, substituting olive oil for chili oil, and adding spinach. The pizza turned out to be very thin, but yummy, and my party also enjoyed the ceviche. I had an iced coconut coffee that was absolutely delicious. ​After our first waiter ended his shift, our second waiter, Mike H., took over the table and never checked on us not even one single time after someone dropped off the food. When a small issue came up with one of the plates, he was just so nonchalant and dismissive, and Mike didn't add to the ambiance of the place at all. Fortunately, I believe it was a manager who then stepped in with a smile and addressed the issue, which was really nice. Aside from that unfortunate service experience, the food and drinks were tasty, but the misleading menu hours, lukewarm water on a hot day, and inattentive waiter definitely left room for improvement.
