Roast beef sandwich
Benjamin S.

Monroe Place is quickly becoming a go-to when I'm in Culver City. Haven't had a bad sandwich yet, and the bread is even better toasted. The WLF is my new favorite. Great ingredients and great people

The W.L.F.
Afi P.

I would not have come here if it weren't for yelp. I was looking for focaccia bread in L.A. and this shop said they have it. I see this shop once a week and I always walk into the French pastry shop next door. In the future, I'll stop at both! I got the W.L.F. on focaccia and a bag of salt and vinegar chips. When I got home, I slipped the chips inside of the sandwich and added a drizzle of honey. It was glorious.

Jamón & The Giant Peach
Misa O.

My first visit, I thought the WLF sandwich was very okay and overly saucy. I have a theory that places that put a lot of sauce are covering up the fact that the food itself is not very good. But after expressing my concerns, Monroe Place was quick to reach out and recommend me another sandwich (Jamón & The Giant Peach) which I enjoyed a lot more! The ingredients were fresh and the ratio of everything was perfect. Although I didn't have the greatest first experience, I love that they did everything they could to make it right.

hallf the sandwich and my drink!

Monroe Place has become one of my favorite Culver spots. I dream of the WLF and highly recommend pairing it with the mini cookies from Lei'd and an Olipop. Soooooo so so good anytime I have guests over, I take them here.

Culver City doesn't lack outstanding food and drink options - you just have to ask around, turn to your neighbors and friends, and of course, to those foodies on Yelp who helped me discover Monroe Place. Simple format, solid sandwiches. I stopped by here on a weekday after the lunch rush to check out the latest food offerings. A friendly team member welcomed and informed me that they sold out of ciabatta bread for the day but that everything else was available. After looking over the colorful wall menu, I decided to tap into my hunger (as well as my love for Seinfeld) and go with The Morty. The Morty comes with Pistachio Pesto, Mortadella, Burrata, Cracked Black Pepper, Arugula, Balsamic Glaze normally on Ciabatta but this time, I went with Focaccia. I sat at one of the half dozen bar seats inside and within 5 minutes my order was called. The packaging was your traditional white paper bundle, wrapped and sealed with yellow tape, anxiously awaiting me to tear it open. I conceded my temptations and was delighted to see a wonderfully colorful and inviting sandwich on my plate. The Morty was quite tasty. First of all, the bread was soft, fresh and phenomenal. The Mortadella and Burrata cheese were spectacular. Top notch quality and very rich and satisfying. The Black Pepper added a nice little kick, while the Arugula, Pesto and Balsamic Glaze perfectly complemented the rest of the sandwich with unique flavors and textures. It was a pretty good sized sandwich and priced on average with other competitive shops in the area. A few seats outside, a stocked and clean restroom for customers in the back. Parking is pretty open all along Washington Blvd. with plenty of 2-hour options on any of the side residential streets. The bread is the star here, with a simple menu that delights the senses without breaking the bank. Get there early before they sell out of the bread of your choice and enjoy a tasty Monroe Place sando.

Tried out Monroe Place recently and overall, it was a decent experience. We had the Italian Spaniard, Big Bambino, and the Morty--while the first two were fine, nothing really stood out flavor-wise. The Morty was the strongest of the bunch with a good balance and seasoning, but still not quite enough to make a lasting impression. The vibes were nice and the service was solid, but with so many great sandwich spots around, I'm not sure this one makes the repeat list for me. Glad we tried it, but probably won't be rushing back.

I stumbled across this sandwich spot as I was walking around Culver City, and was curious about the hype because there were people lining up outside before they even opened. The service was excellent, and the cashier at the counter was very helpful as a first time visitor deciding what I should order. I don't quite remember what I purchased, but it was some sort of roast beef sandwich with arugula, crispy shallots, and romesco on focaccia. The bread is the star of the show here, it was incredibly fresh and fluffy with some flaky salt on top. The other components were also top notch, everything was really well balanced and felt super high quality. They seemed to sell out pretty quickly as we were sitting out front for awhile enjoying our meal, so going early is the best move!

*The Giving Tree*
Paige G.

My neighbor has wanted to come here for awhile and we were not disappointed! The ambiance is chill, you can sit (high stool) or stand at the counter and eat inside. There were also a few low tops outside. Staff was patient and informative. Will definitely be back. It's in a cute little strip of shops on Washington. Plenty of free 2-hour parking in the neighborhood.

What I ordered: - "The giving tree" sandwich A friend of mine highly recommended this place and it did not disappoint! He said to get "the giving tree" sandwich which consists of herb turkey, gruyère cheese, granny smith apple, arugula, and a spicy sauce (consisting of hot sauce and kewpie mayo) on focaccia bread. The focaccia bread was cold, soft, and airy. The textures of this sandwich were magnificent, with the softness of the turkey and cheese with the crunch of the granny smith apples was a nice contrast. The balance of flavors were also impressive. The bitter arugula with savory turkey/gruyère, sweet apple, and subtle spice of the spread (consisting of hot sauce and kewpie mayo) created a delightful bite!

Alicia L.

Just okay. Very small snack size sandwiches and advertised to use bub and grandmas bread, but it was only used for a small selection of their sandwiches. I was expecting a filling meal but my big bambino sandwich was really small with not a lot of filling either. The bread was also very hard. Not quite worth the price for me but I'm glad to have tried it.

Great stop! Came in an hour before closing and the parking was fine on site - not too busy either!…read moreGreat selection of products and generally good prices. I love these types of stores so it would've been easy for me to spend lots of money there but I held back! Worth it if you're looking for any sort of unique baking supply.

Had a real quick trip here recently, and I'd be less and honest if I didn't say I was a bit bummed…read more I actually found what I came here for (I needed some British double heavy cream) for a particular dish, though I couldn't help but reminisce when this location used to be in Culver city. There are a number of reasons why the Culver City location was so much better, but perhaps the main drawback at this LA location is the fact that the former had a real sense of ambiance, and uniqueness, particularly when it came to its cozy little cafe section. Now the "cafe" is pretty much just a space within a space. Another real draw to the Culver City location was the fact that they actually had a separate section where "Guest Chefs" could come in and teach entire classes via cooking classes that sometimes you have to sign up for in advance, and other times you could just kind of walk in on it. That was dope! And while the staff was friendly enough, and again ( don't get me wrong it's still a place that I will be back to to purchase much needed product), it's just an unfortunate reality that sometimes no....you can't duplicate the past.

This nicely sized store has everything you might want in the way of meat and fish. They have great fish. We have had their Elk, Bison and Venison all made up as burgers with these great rolls we got right there. It is all great. We are now regular customers. The service is excellent. They know about everything they carry and go out of their way to explain things. The place is just so bright and pretty. It is so very clean and it is easy to find what you want. They have some of the best steaks we have ever had, the marbling being perfect. We also love their lobster. And all of this is at a fair price. Go there.

I have past here many times and it is basically a frozen butchery…read more I thought there would be actual butchers cutting to order and a live seafood service, but that is not the case. The place is spotless inside and well stocked, and the location is right at Washington and Lincoln on the corner with plenty of parking. I was the only person in the place and they have plenty of friendly help. As a first time customer, I purchased the gourmet Salsa ($5.48), Surimi Sticks ($3.98), two Rib Eye Steaks ($23.21) and the Beef Hot Dogs at $5.00 per package. I have not used the items yet, but everything looks great from a presentation standpoint and I get the feeling it will be fine. Very clean and well presented, the pricing is better than COSTCO or WHOLE FOODS. Located at 2570 Lincoln, the number is 1-833-300-9453 and there are no refunds or exchanges. I will be back. RECOMMEND!

Haute Mess literally does it all!

They have a ton of exciting options when it comes to caffeination! Like with everything here, the options are endless for coffee. I've actually eaten here many times and must say that the sandwiches are delicious but are truly a haute mess! Meaning they have so many ingredients are so packed with deliciousness that I always need a bunch of napkins as an egg oozes out or arugula falls all over. That being said, some highlights of things I've had are their meatball sub that was 1000% better than anything you'd get from Subway. I've also tried the pastrami sandwich and loved it. I absolutely love the Grappa di Mattina with Fresh-Cracked Eggs, Applewood Smoked Bacon, Fresh Tomato, Avocado, Arugula and Aioli on Sourdough Toast! The only thing that was disappointing was the bread got very soggy and the sandwich kind of fell apart when eating it. So eat all their sandwiches asap after ordering, preferably when still in the shop. Their chocolate chip cookies are a great deal at 4 for $6.50 and are solid 4 star cookies. They also have a mini market inside with a ton of wine and other liquor options, a gelato stand with a lot of options or you can grab prepacked pints, so many gorgeous desserts done beautifully. There's just so many options when you come here! Haute Mess has such a huge menu that I can keep trying new things each time I'm in. And thus far, nothing has disappointed me! I'll definitely be back to keep working my way through their eats.

The checkout process is unorganized during the lunch and weekend rush. The customer service is friendly. I usually get the build your own veggie and add every free topping. I wish they had veggie protein options such as tofu, black beans (or even black bean paste), or falafels. They do have plain hummus and cheese for protein but that hits like 2 grams. There's a patio that's cute and encourages community. There's also the property next door that is a pond which has some tables and chairs if there's an overflow or you're introverted.

Met with a warm greeting from staff I feel already inclined to come back sooner rather than later. I met a friend for sandwich, I enjoyed the Reuben and I am blown away. All of my tastebuds danced at the first bite. You fill out a sheet that is left near the counter by the menu's to either build your own or select one of the signature dishes. Note, they do also have Halal options which is a HUGE plus! Their Deli menu is meant to be enjoyed by all, handful of vegetarian options as well. I'd recommend extra toasted love to any sandwich or panini as it is an option on the sheet you fill out. Stepping into the back patio lounge area, there are many tables and seating places to choose from. Theres almost a sense of peace and serenity you experience while in the patio. Theres koi fish, shaded areas and a very cool pizza station! Plenty of seating, I noticed there was a late morning rush but there was still plenty of room for all to sit and enjoy the summer weather. My only side note that may deter people wanting to visit, parking may be hard to find given that this Market place is splat in the middle of a residential part of Culver City. There is a park a few blocks over from the market, grab your food and drinks and enjoy that open space as well if you're introverted but would still like to experience what Jackson Market has to offer.
