New to this area and was introduced to the store. Small, cute, and clean. I tried the Court Street, horseradish creme fraiche, london broil roast beef, crispy shallots, and arugula, on a baguette. Delicious! read more

I don't give out 5 stars so easily. I feel like I really really need to be impressed to give out 5 stars. And this place definitely deserves it. Only cons are sandwiches are pretty small and it's pricey but it's delicious!!!!!! I got the Serenity Now and my hubby got the Persimmon says and both were DELICIOUS! So much flavor in each of them! Staff was friendly and the shop is small inside. A few counter tops with limited seating inside. They told us you can use the tables and chairs infront of the coffee shop to sit on as well. If you're in the area, stop by for lunch. You won't be disappointed. read more

james and the gian peach sandwich was so bussin i was literally ate the half then put the other half in my fridge then in like an hour went back and ate the other half still cold straight from the fridge while kneeling in front of the fridge. That sandwich rly made me its b*tch read more

I have been twice. I got the Big Bambino and the Court Street. The sandwiches are on the smaller side. Personally I like more meat on my sandwich, especially when it's nearly $20 (including tax). There was a slice or two soppressata. The flavor was there just wish there was more of it. The court street is their take on a roast beef, which was dry. Service was great, friendly! Small shop with good seating around the corner. Definitely a great addition to the neighborhood and will go back when I'm the area but won't go out of my way to get like Lorenzo California or Bread Head. There a small changes that could make a difference and put this place on the map. read more

I am enjoying a WLF sandwich right now and I am in heaven with every bite! I don't live nearby, but I always pick up sandwiches when I visit my doctor. This is the best sandwich I've had in a long time - the bread is so fresh and has this perfect amount of salt on top. Ordered online, found 30 min parking spot right next to the store, and order was ready BEFORE they said it would be. I highly recommend!!! read more

Monroe Place - WLF Sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - Culver City, California

Dope sandwich spot that brings excellence to every part of the dining experience. Most importantly - the food. Sandwiches here are just scrumptious. Ordered the WIF and Jamon and the Giant Peach. Both achieve that magic of being extremely flavorful without being heavy / overly garnished / overly spiced. Simply airy magic that packs a punch with delicious flavor. The store is super clean, service is fast. Man working the register was friendly and helpful. Packaging is even done super well. I appreciate Monroe Place's attention to detail, starting with the food and extending to everything else. I'll be back. read more

I visited today and had the Matador's Wife sandwich. I'm not a fan of focaccia bread, and sadly this visit did not change my mind. But I think it's more of a me thing, so if you like focaccia, don't let my comments sway you. Overall, the sandwich was pretty good. I liked the spread and cheese, but found the sandwich a little dry. I took half home and added tomato, Sriracha and sliced peperoncini and it was definitely better. I'm willing to visit again to see if there other bread options are more satisfactory to my tastes. By the way, they are sandwiched between two great shops. There's Super Domestic coffee shop on one side and Des Croissants Paris on the other. read more

I think the WLF just became my favorite sandwich in LA. Yeah, that just happened. Before my teeth even pushed down into the first bite, when the sandwich was just being held there, it was a flavor explosion. And it only got better from there. The saffron mayo was a chef's kiss, the pomegranate molasses (POMEGRANATE MOLASSES) was the perfect level of sweetness and tang to cut through, the Persian cucumbers fresh and crispy, the fried onions crunchy n salty, all in perfect proportion to the meat n greens. And then there was the cacc! That crunchy, doughy, B&G's focacc. No notes. 5 stars. Pure perfection. read more

Serenity Now. Don't Dilly Dally. Serenity Now. Saw this place on Eater and was curious to check it out. Monroe Place has a rotating menu of thoughtfully composed sandwiches served on Bub & Grandma's bread. It reminds me of Wax Paper, sans the NPR-named sandwiches. Their menu, which is playfully posted on the wall, ranges in price from $14-$17, with a handful of vegetarian and vegan options. I had ordered online for takeout, but they do have a tiny counter and a couple of tables outsides, should you wish to dine there. I am not a big fan of turkey sandwiches, finding them boring, but Serenity Now made me reconsider my anti-turkey stance. With a spicy serrano cilantro spread that had a kick, this was a terrific sandwich, with herb turkey, feta and tomato/cucumber/onion salad for a bit of crunch on Bub & Grandma's focaccia. I don't even like cilantro, but that spread was magnificent. The Dilly Dally - a lemony herby chicken salad with cucumber, celery and carrot on focaccia - paled in comparison. It was a touch too lemony for me. I can't wait to return to try more sandwiches! Metered street parking. Closed Sundays. read more

Monroe Place - Big Bambino - Sandwiches Near Me - Culver City, California

this place is FIREEEEEEEE, even after a 30min Uber delivery wait- our sandwiches were so good. The perfect work lunch treat What we got: serenity now (turkey meat), matadors wife (turkey meat), big bambino (soppressata meat) - everything was SOOOOOO good. You can get the big bambino in the veggie version as the lil bambino. I loved the big bambino but wish they gave more burrata! Can't wait to try this again, still dreaming and drooling for this place!!! An absolute must - they do have odd hours though so only open 11-4pm I believe, so squeeze it in for lunch somehow! read more

A small, clean sandwich spot. Metered street parking was easy enough on a Saturday at noon. Friendly staff, fast service. Good amount of counter seating inside, plus a couple of tables on the sidewalk out front. I ordered the Italian Spaniard: I can't decide if I like this sandwich or not. Good flavor from the jamon serrano, mortadella, and soppressata, as well the arugula and dressing. The bread has decent chew on the inside, but the outside is a little too hard for my liking. The manchego cheese tasted good, but they should've used slices instead of shredded. Most of the cheese just ends up falling out. Also, for $16 this sandwich is definitely too small. Overall, still kinda good, but probably not worth the drive from The Valley. read more

Came here on a random Thursday and got a bunch of stuff to try. The service was kind and quick and ready to help if needed. The cucumber, mint limeade and the watermelon lemonade both are refreshing and delicious. I then moved onto the serenity now. It's herby and spicy and amazing! The cucumber salad on the sandwich was delightfully crunchy and flavorful. It helped to cut some of the spicy that came from the Serrano peppers. My only complaint would be more feta cheese, but I love feta cheese so much. I would love to come back here and try all of their sandwiches. read more

Really amazing sandwiches. They have a lot of great options and the sizes are perfect. I'm a huge fan of Bub & Grandma's so I was happy to see they carry their bread for some of the sandwich options. Yesterday was my first time trying Monroe but it won't be my last. We tried two of their sandwiches. The Court St, which is roast beef on a roll, and honestly, I really loved it. The London Broil was delicious as well as the rest the sandwich. I added avocado and manchego cheese, which I think made the perfect combination. We also tried the Serenity Now, partly because we are both Seinfeld fans, and because it comes on Bub & Grandma's bread. It was also very good, and we added avocado to that as well, which I highly recommend. Overall great sandwiches and I would definitely recommend to anyone. read more

Although pricey, the sandwiches here are AMAZING. I had the Serenity Now and was blown away by the complexity of the flavors. The spicy serrano-cilantro spread did a lot of the heavy lifting, but I'm not mad about it because it's just that good. The veggie mix added a layer of freshness and crunch that elevated the whole sandwich and the bread was phenomenal. The focaccia had a beautiful crunch on the outside with a fluffy inside. My only two complaints are that I wish I got a bit more turkey on my sandwich, and...the price. My sandwich came out to about $17 which is expensive, even for LA, but I'd still recommend this spot to anyone looking for a great sandwich. read more

My hair stylist is near Monroe Place and decided to try it after getting my 'do refreshed. The first time I got the Bambino, which was pretty good. Second time, I got the WLF, which for sure I'll order again. Everything about it was fantastic from the bread, to the pomegranate molasses, and the crispy shallots on top. OMG. I went after lunch rush both times so service was quick. Prices lean towards the high side give the sizes of the sandwiches, but quality of ingredients is good. Highly recommend for casual quick lunch. read more

Been here enough times to tell you that the sandwiches are not worth it. The owners attitude is absolutely not worth it. I can't believe she has staff because if my boss spoke to me like I've watched her yell at them I would simply walk out. It's really so bad I won't be back. The way she goes on and barks at them had my jaw on the ground. The last time I was in she yelled at me as I collected my order. It was under my husbands name, it was literally the only one as I was the only customer in the store, he had just stepped outside. There was nothing else being made at all because they were out of bread yet again. I literally placed the last order, had the pleasure of watching her yell at the staff like she was in the trenches over two slices of bread, and then got an earful myself. Girl needs to get a grip. Even if the food was amazing I can't stomach another one of her tantrums. read more

Wow. This place is so good! Pretty quiet on a weekday around lunchtime, the person working the counter was very helpful with suggestions. I ended up accidentally ordering the wrong thing (mixed up the sandwich names- totally my fault), but they remade my sandwich which was very kind. I got the insanity later- very interesting mix of flavors with the creamy feta and avocado, brightness of the cilantro, and slight spice from the Serrano sauce. Great bread too, focaccia from bub and grandmas I think. I want to come back and try some of the other sandos. read more

Monroe Place - insanity later! - Sandwiches Near Me - Culver City, California

The cutest sandwich shop in culver!! I saw them on instagram and have been dying to try and finally made it over. You can turn any of their sandwiches into salads which is a great option, but I loved the big bambino (subbed the bread for focaccia) and will get it as a sandwich forever!! The owners are the sweetest and helped me choose which sandwich to get since it was my first time too so 10/10 service. There are stools inside or tables outside to eat too. Cannot wait to try more of the menu!! read more

I'm something of a sandwich expert, and Monroe Place has the best ones I've ever had. Really creative and yummy stuff they're cooking up. Every time I show new coworkers this place, they are floored. The staff is super friendly and on top of it too. My favorite sandos so far are The Morty and Matador's Wife. Do yourself a favor and come here. read more

The shop is small and simple. I've tried a few sandwiches and honestly it's not anything I'd recommend. Just bland. I wanted to love something I can walk to, but alas, I'll drive before I eat here again. Besides the food that didn't impress, the lady who helped was rude, so service wasn't a strong point either. No biggie, just a hard pass. read more

First time here and I ordered the persimmon says and WOW! Perfect balance of flavors. Such a well constructed sandwich! Jamon serrano, mint vinaigrette, persimmon, burrata, cracked black pepper, honey, pomegranate molasses, arugula on grandma's focaccia bread! Wonderful. Service was attentive and very good! They were super busy as we went during lunch, but they are pro's and get you in and out real fast. Some metered parking and not much space to sit and eat, but other than that, great place. read more

I am a sandwich lover and these hit the spot!! The giving tree is turkey paired with delicious grandma's focaccia and it is so delicious and well made! The focaccia is so soft and adds a perfect texture to the sandwich. All the sandwiches I've had have been delectable and I can't wait to try more! read more

Great sandwiches - I've had the Italian Spaniard and I think what sets them apart is the dressing they use in the sandwich, the zingy shallot vinaigrette, which is housemade. Not a ton of seating - a few tables outside, better for pickup. read more

Portions seemingly get smaller every time that I order. Decent sandwich but can't justify the price anymore..

So good! Try the WLF. crunchy and sweet and really taste great. Simple store and great good

I am AMAZED with the flavor this restaurant provides with the high-quality ingredients they combine in these amazing sandwiches ! Serenity Now is the one I chose. The combination of flavors leaves my taste pallet, wanting to try more. The balance of the Serrano spread with the cheese and fluffy toasted bread, gives it a light spice with a tangy citris flavor. I've literally not tried an amazing sandwich like this elsewhere! And I would definitely be back for more. I definitely recommend this place completely worth it read more

Warning... Don't come here if you're not ready to have your taste buds tingling! If you're in the mood for a sandwich - come here. Forget that other sub place. I went all in and got the Serenity Now and Court Street. Fell in love with Serenity Now from the first bite! A great mixture of flavors. Now Court Street just tested off to me. You could taste each ingredient but as a whole, it just didn't jive together for me. Employees were friendly and seemed happy to be there. ..and they could talk intelligently about the food they're serving. Definitely a plus-plus!! I definitely would come again and try the other sandwiches! If you want a tasty sandwich, hit up this place first! read more

I had the most delectable sandwich here yesterday (the "Jamon and the Giant Peach"). Not cheap, but worth it. Beautiful, fresh, artisanal ingredients. Amazing flavor combinations. Quick, no-nonsense service. Pleasant sidewalk seating. Perfect place for a casual bite or to-go. Great neighborhood to explore. And this place is sandwiched (literally) between a coffee shop and a French bakery. read more

Amazing sandwich spot! I had the giving tree sandwich and it was truly soooo good. The mix of the apples + sauce + turkey was truly perfect. I even requested to take out the cheese and they happily substituted it for avocado, which truly made it even better! The ingredients tasted so fresh and the sandwich was a decent size. The service itself was super fast, so would come again! read more

What an honor it was to visit this little peace of heaven in the neighborhood. I woke up today wanting a sandwich, went searching and found this gem. So glad I did. Food: I asked the staff for a recommendation as it was my first time and she pointed me to the popular - Serenity Now sandwich: spicy serrano-cilantro spread, herb turkey, feta, cucumber-tomato-red onion salad, on bub & grandma's focaccia. WOOOOOOW! This was what I wanted and more! The flavors, the bread, wow! The focaccia did have super tiny bits, maybe seeds, that were a bit hard to chew on but that's such a minor detail and maybe that's just my teeth. I would 100% get this sandwich again and I would go here everyday if I could. Super friendly staff, delicious food, worth the visit!!!!! Pro tip: only seating is small counter top. If it gets busy you may want to consider to go. read more

Amazing healthy, feel good food if you're willing to spend the extra dollar or two. I do feel like a tip is expected even if you're just picking up but that might be in my head idk. I usually tip on pickups but the one time I didn't they forgot a soda, straw and weren't super cool. So idk maybe I'm reading into something that isn't there, I never know if I'm supposed to tip pickups or not. read more

They had one sandwich here that's a 10 out of 5 called Persimmon Says! To die for but not sure if it's seasonal or taken off the menu, but next visit it was gone and I was beyond devastated. That is literally the only reason I gave it 4 stars, if that sandwich was still there, it would've been a 5! Then I discovered The Morty which wasn't AS GOOD, but it was a 4.5. Probably would be a 5 had I not had already had Persimmon Says. Big Bambino is a 4 out of 5. The Italian Spaniard was like 3.8 out of 5, And the Tuna baby was so mid. 2.5 out of 5. read more

Ordered the Bambino with turkey substitute. Flavors are robust and plentiful. Baguette was the perfect amount of firmness and freshness. As you know sometimes it's all in the bread but the sandwich packs a punch with flavors. Although on the pricey side - ingredients taste and are fresh so you pay for what you get. I was a little surprised by the narrowness of the baguette - can be cumbersome to readjust the ingredients from falling out as you eat your sandwich - just an observation and not a deal killer. read more

I had this place on my list for so long and I'm so glad I finally made it! I've been twice and tried the Just Peachy and the Lil Bambino, and both were amazing. Truly 10/10 food here and wish I could afford to come every day. Alex, who I believe is one of the owners, is super friendly and helpful! I love that they have a variety of vegetarian/vegan sandwiches, and you can tell they use such fresh ingredients. Can't recommend enough! read more
