So I've been to a few California's in my day including the flag ship one downtown and the one the…read moreclosest to me on Warden Ave. But I must say the sandwich I had to was by far one of the best I've ever had in my life!!! Just the right amount of sauce and the cutlets were nice and thick actually seemed thicker then the other California's I mentioned before! I was so tempted to call the store on my way back home and tell them what a amazing sandwich I had but I didn't so this is the next best thing I can do for them. Btw I love the older lookimg sign out front don't change it!!

I have fond memories of eating veal sandwiches. My dad use to get these long veal sandwiches from a…read morefood truck that would stop by his workplace years ago. He brought one home and I devoured it. The bun was soft, the veal was breaded and tender, the marinara sauce was fresh, and it had onions, peppers, and mushrooms that made it the best sandwich. He bought them for me late in my high school and all through my undergraduate years. I moved away. He retired. Veal sandwiches died. Coming back to the GTA, the best veal sandwich I have had is from California Sandwiches. This location is the closest one to my workplace. On Saturday, I had to go into the office and stopped by this location to grab a bite before getting down to work. This location is on Dixie, just north of the 401. You expect tired, hungry truckers around this area on a Saturday. Then, you have folks like me. I wanted a veal sandwich and was hungry. Parking in front of the eatery is limited. I got a spot out of the possible five available. There is also a back entrance where there is more parking. I walked in. There was a woman ahead of me ordering three sandwiches. I already knew what I wanted. This California Sandwiches looks dated from the outside, but is pretty decent inside. I finally got to place my order for a veal sandwich with mushrooms. Technology-wise, the woman took my order down on small pieces of paper. The only modern thing seemed to be the debit machine. Judging by the sign where it said it accepted cash, scribbled in pen underneath was debit. I was armed with both and paid with cash. Everyone there seemed to be Italian. I liked the homey vibe. She asked if I wanted anything else. I got a bottled diet Dr. Pepper. I found out later on that there was San Pellegrino. Oh, well. I'll get that next time. This California Sandwiches is a bit different. You can buy bottles of marinara sauce to take home. Fish and chips are on the menu. If you can fit poutine in your tummy with your sandwich, it's available. Finally, if you feel like pasta, you can get some here. I loved all the choices. It took a bit of time to get my order. There were three orders ahead of mine. Finally, my sandwich was ready. The woman who prepared asked whether I was dining in. I was. No tray. Just the sandwich wrapped in paper was handed to me. I loved all of it! The woman called me sweetie when she handed me my sandwich. It was endearing. I happily sat down and looked forward to chowing down. Why do I love California Sandwiches? The veal is larger than the bun. I opened my sandwich up and felt so happy looking at such beauty. It came with lots of napkins. You need all of them! I took my first bite. I was in heaven. The veal was tender. The breading was perfect. It was light and yummy. I loved the marinara sauce with little chunks of onion. Finally, all those sliced mushrooms got my seal of approval. The yummy bun held everything together. Some have complained that it's expensive to get a sandwich here. With taxes, my sandwich with mushrooms and a bottled drink came up to $14.50. Considering that my sandwich was huge, packed with goodness, and I didn't eat anything until dinner, it's all worth it to me. It does get messy eating this sandwich. After I was done, I washed my hands in the women's washroom. It has two stalls. It was clean. It's dated, but everything works. I'd come back here again for another yummy veal sandwich. It's good reliving good memories while creating new ones. (169)

First time ordering for this location. Not a dine in experience, but a delivery to my hotel room…read more I would definitely recommend this location. The sub was absolutely delicious!

As you enter , you notice there is a buzz to the place with large tv screens. I have eaten at the chucks in barrie but noticed the menu was much larger than in barrie i decided to get the soup of the day which was the chicken thai and the double chuck burger with fries and icetea.. the soup was amazing the chicken thai had so much flavor and certainly hit the spot . On to the burger it was really good double cheese, double bacon double patty, an was every thing a burger should be . it was very vibrant in chucks. but i wanted to give a shout out to the waitress irina who was pleasant ,polite and very efficientand did a great . in fact i decided to get the cheese fries which were really good the next day , i'll definitely get those again . one sour note though a customer had wanted to watch the real madrid barcelona soccer match "El Classico" and the waitress was filiping through channels and found the vancouver fc and calgary calvary game and said this was as good as el classico. the customer was not happy and rightly so . the la liga real madrid barcelona rivalry in one of the classics in soccer and the game was on ABC. it did have the nfl games in that time slot. With that said i look forward to more visits to chucks and checking out the menu further

I love subs, this place does it right…read more I am fine with all levels of subs but when I want a quality sub I come here. Solid menu variety, but the meat is the crown jewel here and the oil/red wine vinegar sauce they use makes the meat shine instead of overpowering it like other sub chain sauces. The sub feels fresh, from the bread to the cheese, and they don't skimp on the sauce. Great Heartland location close to lots of retail and other food shops. Ample parking and easy to spot. There's a good handful of tables inside for individual or pair seating, and service is pretty quick. I pre-ordered on a busy day and only needed to wait 10 to 15 minutes on a weekend evening. They do minor promos through their own loyalty program , but I find they offer better discounts on Uber/skip/etc.

I felt like they didn't hold back on veggies unlike Subway. The bread was definitely higher quality than a typical Subway too. The employees were pleasant and accommodating to my first visit and were happy to answer a few questions. Definitely 8.5/10 for higher quality food and service however the Giant sub was around $23 after tax so it isn't cheap. Glad I gave it a chance and will definitely come back soon.

I ordered the Eggplant Parmesan Hoagie with their large fries. I would say I did enjoy the sandwich and it was filled up quite nicely. The fries were crispy and fresh out of the fryer. I also got to try their cheese stick which were okay, it was just plain cheese breaded with no flavour. Overall, decent adventure.

The service was friendly and they took the time to answer questions from customers. I ordered the Grilled Chicken Meal and the portion size was big. They were quite generous with the serving. I got mine with potatoes and salad but you can opt for rice. The chicken was cooked fresh per order so expect a bit of wait time. The Greek salad was fresh and refreshing. I also tried their Biggies sauce which was similar to a garlic aioli (explained by the server). The garlic flavour was relatively mild compared to other ones I have tried. The chicken was boneless and grilled. It was a tad bit dry but good thing they put a lot of sauce. I'd like to try their sandwiches in the future.

Before I came here, all of my coworkers were HYPING this place. Curious I went on a Friday! And then promptly walked back to the car because it was THAT busy. I decided to try this place again the next week after on a Monday at lunch, and it was much, much better. So tip: don't come here on a Friday lunch. It's a pretty small area with a few tables to dine in. Usually these are taken by fancy work people so go in with the expectation that you might have to bring your food back to the office and make those coworkers j e a l o u s. Upon entering, there's two areas to wait; one for salads and the other to sandwiches. I ordered the chicken avocado wrap and my boyfriend ordered the seared tuna sandwich (something fancy like that). They come with a salad and/or soup too so you can be EXTRA fancy and pompous when ordering your nice, healthy lunch. For the both of us with drinks, it came up to around $35 (goodbye money) and we got our food pretty quickly. I do have to say that the food is AMAZING! I don't know how they do it but there's legit magic in the food they make. The chicken avocado was great but I would recommended that tender seared tuna if you are feeling boujee enough. So yeah, 10/10 would recommend if you're feeling boujee health nutty, but be wary of coming there on a Friday and the week before you get paid!
