    Pastrami and cheese 12 inch
    Travis P.

    I'd define this as a gem of a hole in the wall. First off the place is kind of dirty and it kinda looks like a house. When it comes to the food though the quality is top notch. French Fries - crispy golden brown, perfectly seasoned (9/10) Hoagie Steak and Cheese Hot Sub - this is an absolute must get. The meat was a tad sweet and tangy but also had this good balance of salt. With the vegetables and cheese really makes this a complete sandwich. (10/10) Chicken Teriyaki Bowl - this is a standard bowl but honestly it was pretty tasty. Seemed like fresh chicken breast smothered in sauce. Basic but quality ingredients. (8/10) I live around the area and this is going to be my new goto sandwich place, it's that good. Small parking lot, hole in the wall dining area, delicious food. Come check it out!!

    Onion rings!
    Clarissa T.

    Got fried onion rings and a pastrami sandwich to share with a friend, the total came out to be $15 and was the perfect amount for 2 peoplr. The pastrami sandwich was a bit too salty for me but otherwise delicious. I love how thick the pastrami cuts are. The onion rings were super crispy and hot. Undersalted but balanced out the saltiness of the pastrami. For a Saturday lunch it was pretty empty so despite the small parking lot there was plenty of parking available. The decor inside seems dated and could use an upgrade. Staff is friendly and patient.

    Club cold sandwich

    Hidden gem in El Monte. Don't let the outside fool you. Family owned sandwich shop that keeps its prices low. Don't go to Jersey mikes when you can come here. Better bread and more protein. Order your sandwiches to go for your next dodger game or sporting event

    Good food. I ordered a cold sandwich which was delicious. Also a chicken teriyaki bowl. I really enjoyed them. They have very reasonable prices. I definitely go back to try different sandwiches.

    Chicken teriyaki sandwich. Pretty solid choice

    The sandwich equivalent of a dive bar. Small, pretty dated, but full of good stuff inside. Still the freshness and flavors of their sandwiches might surprise you. There's nothing artisan here. Gordon Ramsey doesn't work here part time. Instead, you'll get the kind of fresh quality sandwich you might get from mom's kitchen. Chicken teriyaki has big chunks of white meat chicken nestled atop cheese, shredded lettuce, onions, pickles and tomatoes. It's a good size and a fantastic value at about $7.99 for a foot long. I'd definitely stop by again. You should too

    Jack's Sub was one of those places that I always passed by but never tried during the decades when I lived in El Monte. Wow, have I been missing out!! If you can only order one thing from here, the hoagie steak and cheese hot sub is the way to go. The marinated beef is soo good and reminds me of Korean BBQ short rib meat. The large order at $9.39 is such a deal! If the hoagie steak and cheese is off the menu, the teriyaki chicken hot sub ($7.99 for a large) is a good runner-up. The pieces of chicken are juicy and lean. The teriyaki sauce is delicious. But if the hoagie is there, sorry teriyaki chicken, I'd have to go with the hoagie instead, but you're not a bad second choice. BF and I have ordered a large side of fries ($3.59) to pair with the sandwich every time we've come. They fry it fresh after we order and it has the right combination of size, texture, and taste. We end up finishing the fries first before we even get to the sandwiches! They do close on Sundays, so make sure to get your hoagie sub fix on the other days of the week!

There's an anniversary special going on this month so all orders are 20% off - three sandwiches came out to about $22! The sandwiches come in a cardboard box with a hole cut out on the top so that nothing gets soggy. They also give you the pickled carrots and daikon in a separate bag as well as another bag for the cucumber, cilantro, and jalapeños which is amazing for taking it to go. There's also a sauce that came with it but I didn't use it so I can't say anything about it but the sandwich itself was so good. The bread was crispy but soft and the pork was so flavorful. Everything went perfectly together and I would definitely come back again!

The line got long fast, but luckily we beat the crowd and got our food after 15 minutes. It was everything I expected it to be, and it did not disappoint. The pork belly was crispy and not too fatty or too lean. The bread is soft and not too stale, hard, or chewy. The inside is pretty small, so it might be hard to find a spot to sit and eat if that's the plan. My friend and I were lucky to find a seat, but it would definitely be easier to take to go. (my friend also approves!! it was so good she went back after dropping me off to get 3 more banh mis to take home)
