We loved this place. Who cares if you have to wait in line. It is amazing. And anything worth having is worth waiting for. The line is long because there are so many people eating there. They have like 7-10 lines with one person working each line and personally making each sandwich. A sandwich that good takes time for perfection.... more
Yes, this is a great landmark to visit in Los Angeles; but unfortunately, like many other places with great food, the service is poor. I don't mind waiting in line for a few minutes but 30 minutes on a Sunday evening with mid-size line is totally ridiculous...maybe it had to do with the fact that many people were placing large... more
This is a cafeteria style place with sawdust on the floor. The beef dip is legendary, and there are tons of sides you can get along with it. Highly recommended for a cheap, fast, delicious meal in the Chinatown area of L.A. more
Outstanding sandwich, quick service, reasonably price. more
Classic LA beef dip. Stand in line pick your meat and your sides, find a bench. Sweet. Different approach than Cole's, which I like also. more
This is a LA landmark. The sandwiches are OK. The ambiance is a bit dated. Sawdust on the floor. I could say I ate at this place, but would rather not come back again. more
The "Must Do In LA". It has been there for 100 yrs! It was on Man vs. Food show. Known for french dip sandwich. I even bought their homemade mustard! more
Philippe has the best French Dip sandwiches. I normally order the beef, but the pork, lamb, and turkey are also good. During weekends there can be a line, but it moves pretty quick. The side dishes are limited to potato salad, cole slaw, and macaroni salad. They also have soup / chili. For desert, they have several pies to choose... more
surprisingly, they have the best donuts in town! more
