They still didn't ask how they could help me but 3 of them made eye contact with me then carried on replacing a cabinet door, making sandwiches and putting stickers on bags. I said I've been waiting here for my two online orders. "Oh, what's the name?" Customer service is LACKING greatly!

I was really disappointed with my experience. I placed my order about 15 minutes before I was told…read morethere was an issue, and I only found out because my DoorDash driver messaged me saying the store didn't have what I ordered. No one from the store contacted me first. The order was supposed to include pickles and cucumbers. At first I was told they didn't have them, but when I called the store myself, I was then told they did have cucumbers and pickles, but they needed to be sliced and it would be a wait. That was frustrating because my order had already been placed 15 minutes earlier, and the store still had about two hours until closing. Why weren't basic sandwich toppings already prepared during business hours? This also delayed me being able to take my medication by over an hour, which made the situation even more frustrating. I ordered food expecting it to arrive in a reasonable time so I could eat and take my medication, not have to chase down information about missing or unprepared ingredients. On top of that, when I finally received the sandwich, it was very dry and had barely any mustard. They also added salt and oregano even though I removed those from the order. After all the delay and confusion, the food still wasn't made correctly. I understand things happen, but the communication was poor and the situation didn't make sense. If items are unavailable, they should be marked unavailable online before customers pay. And if the items are available but just not prepped, the customer should be told clearly and directly instead of me finding out from the delivery driver. Overall, this was a frustrating experience because I paid for my order expecting it to be made correctly and on time. Instead, I had to call the store myself, my medication schedule was delayed, and the sandwich arrived dry, with minimal mustard, and with ingredients I specifically removed due to allergies.

I'm still on a quest to find the best cheesesteak in Los Angeles! I tried Philly's Best Cheesesteak…read morein Downey, CA yesterday (7-17-26). I compared it to the Philly's Best Cheesesteak in Irvine, CA that I went to about a month ago. I find that the location in Irvine made a better sandwich. I got The Philly Philly at both locations, but the location in Irvine made it better. The sandwich in Irvine was less salty and their bread was better. The bun in Downey tasted a little more chewy and less flavorful! Rankings so far: 1. Philly's Best Cheesesteak (Irvine, CA) 2. South Philly Experience (Los Angeles, CA) 3. Philly's Best Cheesesteak (Downey, CA) I'll provide another update in 2-3 weeks! All 3 locations provide a good overall experience though. I was a little disappointed that one of the cheesesteaks in Downey leaked through the paper bag, which means at least one of the four steaks was not wrapped correctly. I didn't have that experience in Irvine, and I drove an hour back home with 3 steak sandwiches in my car.

It was about time I finally gave my review to Gaucho Mercado in Downey. They open at 10 AM, and of course I was the first one in line . I went a little overboard and got a dozen and a half facturas (Argentinian pastries), some goodies, two ham & cheese pebetes, and some chipas. No regrets! This place never disappoints. Everything is made and baked right there, and you can absolutely tell. The facturas were fresh, soft, buttery, and tasted like they had barely made it out of the oven. The chipas were warm and cheesy, and the pebetes made the perfect savory addition to my pastry haul. But what really makes Gaucho Mercado special is the experience. The customer service is always great--good conversations, plenty of laughs, and that warm, welcoming Argentine vibe. For a little while, you forget you're in Downey and feel like you've been transported straight to Argentina. Rainy Sunday + fresh facturas + mate/coffee = felicidad.

The chimichurri sauce is an excellent accompaniment to the skirt steak for a unique and delicious Argentinian flavor!

I recently visited Brooklyn Pizza and had a great overall experience. The pizza was really good -- fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. You can definitely tell they use quality ingredients. The service was also very good; the staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was just right. The ambience was pleasant as well, with a comfortable and inviting atmosphere that made it a nice place to relax and enjoy the meal. The only thing that was just okay was the cheese garlic bread. It wasn't bad, but it didn't stand out compared to how great the pizza was. Overall, I'd definitely recommend Brooklyn Pizza for their delicious pizza, good service, and enjoyable ambience. read more
