Sandwiches by Connal is a Pasadena institution and an essential stop whenever I am back in my…read morehometown. I have such fond childhood memories of going there with my parents and grandparents and receiving what seemed like foot-tall soft-serve cones. They also make the best malts, terrific burgers, and excellent deli sandwiches. The pastrami on rye and grilled cheese are dependable favorites--or you can splurge on a classic banana split. Add fries, with or without chili, and you have the perfect old-school meal. When I was growing up, they called what most people know as a chocolate-and-vanilla twist a "ripple." That is still what I order--and what I call it--wherever I am in the world, even when people look at me funny. Whenever I am in Pasadena visiting family and friends, a stop at Connal's for a ripple, shake, burger, and fries is practically mandatory. Some places serve food; others hold generations of memories. Connal's does both.

I ordered a typical salami grinder. I have had done this for 30+ years+…read more Today there was no menu to-go, no menu inside the restaurant, and no available menu online. The salami was processed, not dry. It came with a major portion of yellow mustard (not requested), tons of finely chopped wet lettuce, no cheese. Horrible and soggy. I would have requested my money back, but it was a to-go order. The quality of the entire restaurant has gone, and it seems no one cares, as this has been going on for over a year. Inside the restaurant, the tables were empty and unclean. The wall decor sign for the restaurant, was broken and meant nothing as it was missing the store name. It was an icon restaurant, but now broken, and terribl.

And a personal breakthrough: I used to schlep all the way to Larchmont Cheese & Wine or Bay Cities before beach days for a proper sandwich. Not anymore. I have sandwich geniuses living right down the street. The bread? Exceptional. The cheeses? Dangerous. The meats? I may never recover. And then there's the lemon Italian ice. My daughter and I have been here three times in the last week, shamelessly returning like two neighborhood raccoons with excellent taste. It is the perfect antidote to a scorching Altadena afternoon. This place is an absolute gem. Go for the pasta, stay for the sandwich, leave with three things you didn't know you needed and a strong desire to become Italian.

You order at the counter and then grab a seat. Everything was made fresh, and since we were the only customers, we got our food in about 10 minutes. Now for the food, I had these items: Mix Sandwich - I've never had a döner before, but it was really good. It kind of reminded me of a calzone or a double-sided pizza slice sandwich. The meat was fresh, loaded up with veggies, and nicely sauced. I really enjoyed it, and it was quite tasty. (4.5/5) Bratwurst - The sausage was delicious, and the bread was unique. Can't go wrong with this one. (4.5/5) I don't eat German food too often, but this was a nice, tasty, and quick spot. The prices were decent for what you get. It also wasn't too greasy or heavy, so if I'm in Pasadena and craving German food, I'd definitely come back. Parking - It's in a small lot with only a few parking spaces, but I had no trouble finding a spot.

The shop is pretty small, able to fit around a dozen people or so. Most take their items to go, but it's a perfectly fine and clean establishment to sit and enjoy your food while watching the chef assemble it inside their open kitchen. Ordered the following: - Mixed sandwich - 7.5/10: Big wrap that comes with chicken and beef shaved off from a couple of spits. Lots of fresh, crisp veggies stuffed inside a firm, crispy wrap that holds everything together pretty well. Taste was good, but I thought the meats could've been a little more seasoned. Otherwise, a hearty, filling sandwich. Fries - 6.4/10: Crinkle-cut style. Seasoned well. Just OK. Pricing is fair. Would recommend as a good time was had by all.
