Great food here. You've probably driven past and seen a modest line of people waiting. I wish I could say that the line moves quickly but it simply doesn't. Is it worth waiting in line for more than 15m? Absolutely not. But again, the food is great. Street parking though is always tricky depending on the time of your visit. Bacon Egg and Cheese - For a breakfast sandwich, it smacks. I wasn't so certain about the bread ratio but I was so wrong-- the roll is perfectly soft, and the egg, bacon, and cheese come together perfectly. No real notes here. Sausage Egg and Cheese - If you like sausage, get this one. But if you're undecided, just go with bacon. I'll get myself a blood orange donut every now and again. They're priced a little high but I would say that you certainly get what you pay for.

Cinnamon roll I ordered...
Jennifer A.

Great pastry's!Cute old fashioned diner!Also they had exceptional customer service!What more can u asked for!I got the cinnamon roll.It was so good!Best tasting cinnamon roll I have ever had!This place is a must!Of course I will be back!

Nijole T.

The food here is fantastic! Well, worth the weight, if you are in a rush, they have a walk up window with their baked goods and sandwiches available. Service is wonderful, extremely hard-working. The attention to detail and quality of their products makes all the difference. We have eaten here several times and you really can't go wrong with anything on their menu. I love the diner vibe and the food is always consistently great. Highly recommended if you are looking for a casual yet absolutely delicious meal in the area!

Bacon breakfast sandwich and black coffee.
Javier R.

I really enjoyed my experience here. I got here right at opening and was seated inside, given a menu and water while I decided my order. My server Matt, was very professional, friendly, and polite. I got the bacon breakfast sandwich, coffee, and blueberry cornmeal scone. My food and drink were really good and I'd get everything again. There was jazz playing, which I really liked and the restroom was clean.

Great place to grab lunch. There was a bit of a wait but they have a window where you can order coffee. Once you're inside, service and food are quick! I recommend the croissant toast with thr jelly - indulgent!! I had the brisket sandwich and it was so good and so tender!!

Large wedge, roast beef aju and pickle plate
Bryant G.

I haven't been here in a while - we dropped in to grab dinner and were pleased to hear live jazz! They have performances sunday and monday nights. The food was great as always. Just a note to say they still have it!

Sidewalk table seating as well as indoor dining.
Tamara H.

Cute place. We went for breakfast and they offer some unique menu items. It's a diner with a twist on their offerings. The apricot raised donut was light and airy. Not at all greasy. Their raised, filled donut was strawberry rhubarb and it was yummy as well. The rolls that they make the breakfast sandwiches on were fresh and the perfect bun to use. Service was friendly. The restaurant was clean and had a fun vibe. A happiness to it. A fitting playlist added to the atmosphere. Street parking in the area. Indoor seating with a few sidewalk table options as well. I look forward to returning and trying something different on their menu.

Didn't have the burger, but those who did raved.
Randy O.

The first time we came was for breakfast and this time for Sunday jazz. The group was a little strange, but the food and vibe were still good. Not everyone liked the pickle plate, but it was one of my favorites, especially the green tomatoes. Food was good all around (burgers, chicken Caesar, etc.), but I'm a sucker for good pie. Both the coconut cream and the plum were delicious. Some of my favorite wait staff are here, so it's always a good meal, whether breakfast or dinner.

Filet of Fish Sandwich
Kevin R.

Pleasantly surprised by Bub and Grandma's! I've had this spot saved for a while now and finally got the chance to try it. The food is amazing. I tried the Filet of Fish Sandwich. I was in between that or their burger; I had let our waitress decide for me as she said both of them were good and I wanted to be surprised. Hands down , the best fish sandwich I've ever had. A simple combination of ingredients made this sandwich so good. I loved the tartar sauce and freshness of the fish itself. The bun was amazing as well and really tied everything together. Service was great! Our waitress was very kind and welcoming. Gave us time to look over the menu and like I said before , surprised me with a great meal. Ambiance is really cool. The whole place was clean and gave me a modern-retro diner vibe. Plenty of seating inside with some outside. They also have live music playing which is such a great touch. Overall , would absolutely love to come back again and try more of their food!

Tuna Sandwich
Cindy L.

Ordered at the to go window because there was a wait for sit down service. Employee was friendly and happily gave us their recommendations. There is outdoor seating you're welcome to enjoy your meal at. Our food was out in less than five minutes, surprisingly fast. Bread is made in house and it was delightful. Fluffy, fresh, and balanced the fillings well. The tuna sandwich had a nice slice of iceberg lettuce which gave it a great crunch and mouthfeel. Brisket was balanced with fruit and a solid mustard. Both were ample in size. The sides were on point. The artichoke antipasti had a lot of pearl couscous but the marinated artichoke chunks were big too. Celery salad stole the show. Lovely balance of vinegar, dill, cheese, nuts, and great celery. A must get. Will come again to explore more of the menu.

Chips and dip
Brenda A.

Good food, excellent baked good and great service. I've been stopping by this spot every time I am near Glassell and let me say it's consistently delicious. The portions are on the smaller side but the food is well prepared, presented well and has balanced flavors. It's a bright an airy deli style place that is kind of trendy. The parking situation is terrible so bring your patience. I've had the Muffalta sandwich, the roast beef àu jus and two of the bowls now and they are all so good. If you enjoy fish the trout salad is a surprise hit!

Roasted Butternut Squash with dates, chives, lime, duqqa
Christy S.

Went for dinner on a recent Sunday evening. There was live jazz which made the place very lively. We were seated right in front of the band, which was cool but pretty loud. I've been here for breakfast and lunch and was curious to check out the dinner scene. I was initially a little underwhelmed by the dinner menu, but I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of what we got. Bub's Bread with Patty's Butter & Anchovies High quality sourdough bread with a generous amount of anchovies and butter. I had never had anchovies before and didn't realize how salty they were. Otherwise enjoyed the bread and butter. Roasted Butternut Squash with dates, chives, lime, duqqa This might be the most flavorful butternut squash I've ever had. The seasonings were unique and complementary. Unstuffed Cabbage Rolls with bulgur, sauerkraut, kidney beans, dill Nice flavor and balance of ingredients. Romesco Chicken - half jidori chicken with romesco sauce Initially I didn't think this sounded interesting, but it was very good. The chicken was high quality and had a lightly crispy skin. The sauce went well with it. Overall very happy to have checked out dinner here!

orange/pomegranate glaze + fennel salad + potato chip shake are delish additions
Emese S.

Hands down, the BREAD lives up to the hype. Seriously, the bread makes the sandwiches here. The kaiser, challah, and focaccia breads are all delish. You can taste the freshness when your teeth sink into each bite. On top of the selection of freshly baked breads, I'm a fan of their RAINBOW Sandwich when I'm on my veggie kicks. It's got sprouts, avocado, curried tofu, and pickled vegetables. I'm an even bigger fan of their HOT MEATLOAF on Challah bread. The description made me skeptical at first--with ingredients like orange pomegranate glaze, buttermilk fennel salad, sweet pickles, and a potato chip shake. It seemed to be a sandwich created by accident while puffing on too much Pineapple Express. Maybe so. But hey, it was so dang good! When I actually dug into it, I was quite pleased with this beef & pork meatloaf recipe. As for sides, their potato salad is simple yet the egg, celery, and creamy dressing do the trick. The CURRIED CHICKEN SALAD is my next go-to when I'm not feeling as gluttonous. The curried chicken breast is tender and it has a good mix of dill, almonds, lettuce, mandarins, celery, and cucumber. For drinks, you can order freshly brewed coffees and brews from Solarc or Highland Park Breweries. Personally, I like the retro/throwback, non-alcoholic drinks with this type of diner food. There's Dr. Brown's Cherry soda (my fave), Martinelli's Apple Juice (in the apple bottle), Cock & Bull Ginger Ale, and Dad's Root Beer. Fresh squeezed OJ and Lemonade from Rick's Produce is a splurge, but it's liquid Vitamin C and you're supporting a small-batch California farmer. Glassellland has gotten a bit more popular since Bub & Grandma's moved into our neighborhood. News has gotten out about the tasty breads and all the hip kids in town hang out here, so it's best to expect some kind of wait here. The vibe is always busy. Yet no matter when I've gone, I've been lucky enough to somehow bypass the long wait times, but watch the diner fill up by the time I leave. Good thing they have a take out window for when impatience gets the best of you, and you wanna sink your teeth into a freshly baked bread ASAP.

The smoked turkey was piled high with tomatoes, pesto, banana peppers, provolone cheese and balsamic glaze packed into a perfectly toasted thin bread. Every bite had so much flavor and the ingredients tasted very fresh. The portions are also fantastic for the price. For $16 the sandwich came with two huge halves that were easily enough to share or save one for later. Already thinking about I'm ordering next time.

The breakfast sandwich was by far the worst of the three. It looked amazing, but the taste was a completely different story. The eggs weren't salted, let alone seasoned, and the entire sandwich was incredibly bland. It genuinely tasted like cardboard, which was especially disappointing given how appetizing it looked. The pastrami sandwich was a 5/10 at best. I wasn't a fan of the texture of the pastrami, and the meat itself lacked any particularly memorable flavor. The turkey pesto was easily the best of the three. The bread was good, the ingredients worked well together, and the sandwich was nicely assembled. It was the only one I actually enjoyed. Overall, the sandwiches looked much better than they tasted. With so many good sandwich spots around, I wouldn't return.

Well matched to its…read moreupscale shops and the Italian restaurant next door, Delucas offers pricey, tasty sandwiches and paninis in a relaxed atmosphere. I came on a sunny Saturday afternoon; the interior is upscale, open, with products in the shelf and a menu written on the wall. I made my way to the front to placed my order, with the staff friendly, but not effusive, who made a couple suggestions at my request. I ended up getting the Fig and Pig Panini ($16), which was absolutely excellent, featuring slow-roasted pork, white cheddar cheese, and sweet pieces of fig and fig jam on thin, perfectly crispy piece of thin, toasted ciabatta bread. A perfect combination of sweet and savory, this was as good as previous Yelp reviews suggest, but was tragically quite small (see attached photo). With it I ordered an iced cappuccino ($5.25), which was good, especially with a cinnamon sprinkle on top, but quite small for the price. Unfortunately, over half of it was foam--more than expected even for a cappuccino-style drink. The interior was clean but quite busy. I had to wait about 15 minutes for my food, and the restaurant appeared somewhat understaffed, with many tables needing to be bussed and cleaned. Although I was warned of the wait and the tables were cleaned about 10 minutes in, for an upscale establishment like this, I would hope for more consistent upkeep and slightly more staff. Prices, above, are a bit elevated and somewhat disproportionate to the quantity of food provided. However, given the ritzy, popular setting, they are not entirely unreasonable. If you're looking an upscale, delicious Italian sandwich in the heart of the Glendale Galleria, you'd be hard-pressed to do better than Deluca's. For the discerning customer willing to pay a few extra dollars, you'll be very pleased with your experience here. Delizioso! Food: 4.5/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Value: 3.5/5

If you don't know already from your map, this is located inside the Pokitomik in the Glendale Marketplace. I only wish that there was a sign outside that said "Si Roma - Italian Sandwiches" on the window so that more people might be enticed to look inside. The only thing I saw was their logo, which people might not immediately recognize. I've tried their Si Roma and the turkey allora before but this time we went with the Americano, which was a pretty hefty sandwich! You could share this between two people, honestly. What I appreciate was that it wasn't too packed where you have a hard time eating the thing. The stirato bread is good, perfectly sturdy for the sandwich and has this white dust (flour?) on it that makes it different from your standard sandwich shop. My favorite part of every Si Roma sandwich is the generous helping of stracciatella cheese, and the is time we got this lil cup of honey/fig/parm sauce thing to slather onto the sandwich as well, which added a deliciously sweet dimension to it. They also have a $5.95 sandwich that I would love to try next time. They bill it as an affordable option for people working in the area which I think is great given how much more expensive things have gotten! Wishing you all the best and success, Si Roma!

Unfortunately they changed their bread to some sort of soft, bready ciabatta. The previous bread was of much higher quality that really made the sandwich taste and feel like an artisanal Italian sandwich. Could be a cost-cutting measure? Who knows. I'm going to cool it with the orders for now and try again sometime in the future. Hope the change is temporary :(

For myself, I really love the Spicy P ($16) with generous portions of chicken cutlet, vodka sauce with a little heat, mozz, a basil pesto drizzy, romano slivers, basil all on a seeded baguette. It's super good and probably my favorite thing at Ggiata. I've ordered the Chicken Parm ($16) and it's not as good as the Spicy P for me and it's the vodka sauce that puts it over the top. I've also ordered The Draper ($16) with it having Parma prosciutto & chicken cutlet pieces with shredded lettuce, stracciatella, balsamic vinegar and garlic aioli. It's super tasty. It can be a little messy but it's quite delicious. A recent order of mine was The Crispy Chicken Caesar Wrap ($16) with its chicken cutlet chopped romaine lettuce, croutons, caesar dressing, pepperoncini, shaved parmesan cheese thats all wrapped in a flour tortilla. This is the 1st caesar wrap I've ever had and I really liked it. It's a loaded one and half will fill you up. The parmesan at times was a little strong for me combined with the dressing but it certainly does not lack flavor. The lady loves her Spicy P and Crispy Chicken Caesar Wrap as well but never forgets to order arancini ($7 or $14) and meatballs ($12) as sides. Both are tasty but I prefer the meatballs over the rice balls. The eggplant fries IMO are very good. Only ordered them our first time trying Ggiata but will for sure order again. The Highland Park location is nice. There are seating areas inside and outside. The space is light and open to lots of natural light. The staff was nice & friendly. We waited a while for our order but everything is made fresh so no complaints at all. Metered street parking out front on York. Check the signs everywhere else.
