    Little sando shop tucked away in Brentwood. Parking was difficult due to street parking being in residential area. Aesthetically, it was very neat. Seating area a little exposed to the sun though. The boxes that the sandos come out in is pretty neat. It is contactless ordering as well. Food wise, egg sando is what it is known for but was kinda bit to dry. Ordering a drink is recommended. The katsu was better but the taste still leaves room for more. Overall not too bad. But missing that 5% for the 5 star.

    The tiniest little shop that packs a punch in the sando department. This hidden gem (no seriously, the name is hidden by the umbrellas out front that cover the seating area) shares a building with a coffee shop and both are great. You walk in, consult the menu and use the kiosk to order. Vegetarians rejoice (the non-ovo kind)! They have a mushroom toast that is absolutely delicious. I'd get that again for sure. The bread is thick and flavorful, mushrooms and onions cooked perfectly. A lot of great textures and flavors, served with a tiny arugula salad. Ovo-indulging vegetarians, the egg sando is delicious. For any of my jet setters that have traveled to Japan, it's comparable, even has that orange yolk. The major difference: you're paying $16 a sandwich instead of $2. Everybody loves dessert! They have some fried and non-fried sandwiches. We got the fried pistachio and Nutella sandwich and the fried banana one. If you're not in the mood for savory, at the least, try the sweet ones! There are non-fried strawberries and cream as well. I will say, the fried ones, you cannot have often. You can kinda taste the oil and it is HEAVY. I wish the Nutella and bananas wasn't just the top of the slice but actually inside the toast. Almost too much cream but still delicious. They gave us the wrong sandwich and luckily remade it (thank you!) but then we had 3 fried dessert ones total and this was just too much. Definitely great to have at least once.

    Chicken karage sando

    I was missing these from Tokyo and decided to give these a try after getting an iced matcha! It was a nice sweet treat. The karage came out crispy and warm. I love how there was seating outside as well. The service is order at the kiosk and they'll call out the number. It's a quick and super casual pick up.

    Niko Sando serves Japanese-style sandos and they're so good. We ordered the chicken katsu sando and the egg sando and loved both. The chicken katsu was crispy and satisfying, but the egg sando really exceeded expectations, super smooth, not eggy at all, and no strong egg smell. Everything was fresh and light!

    Had the egg sandwich and the pistachio chocolate fried sandwich and they were so good. Great portions, will definitely come back to try more options!

    Fear not, the crowds are for the coffee shop next door. You walk inside, place your order on a screen and then check out the beautiful people having coffee while you wait for your order. After a few minutes, they text you and hand over a box or two of yummy sandwiches.

    I wasn't expecting this unique type of Japanese food--delicious sandwiches served warm or cold. I'd seen these dessert sandwiches in anime and recently spotted the egg version at the Japanese Food Fair in OC. Absolutely delicious Service is fast and simple, strictly takeout. The charming ambiance makes it great for a date or a family visit. It was my first time here; I only tried the chicken sandwich, but I'm looking forward to trying the egg and strawberry next time Also worth noting: the wooden silverware adds a nice touch.

    Tiny little spot with the best bites! The bread is so soft. Definitely need to try their sweet sandwiches next time! You order on screen at the counter and the food is ready fast. Wish there was more seating but the coffee shop next door has lots to borrow :)

    Egg salad and chicken katsu sandwich

    Chicken katsu sandwich was definitely the star. The egg salad one was good but wouldn't go back for it. Want to try the fish one next time :)

    Order katsu curry with rice. It was very spicy and the flavor was just so so. Self service overall. Seating area is kind of small.

    Delicious!!! Sandwiches melt in your mouth. You go up to order on a kiosk and sit outside. Cute little boxes to go.

    We stopped by Bread Head and it was absolutely worth the visit. It was a little hard to find a seat…read moresince the place was packed and the line was out the door, but that just shows how popular it is. I ordered the mozzarella sandwich with fresh ovoline mozzarella, creamy avocado, crunchy alfalfa sprouts, pickled red onions, and zatar spread on their signature crackly house made focaccia. The sandwich was stacked incredibly high with fresh ingredients and every bite was delicious. The focaccia alone deserves recognition since it was perfectly crisp on the outside and soft inside. The flavors worked really well together. The portion was huge and it took me about forty minutes to finish because it was so generously loaded. They even gave me a side of avocado at no charge which was a really nice surprise. We also both ordered the homemade lemonade which was to die for and very refreshing. For the quality and portion size the prices are very affordable. They also accept Blackbird which is a great bonus. Amazing sandwiches, fresh ingredients, generous portions, and a fun atmosphere. We will definitely be back before we head home.

    staff totally dont care about delivery pick up order not…read morestarted until I arrived always not ready at pick up time Always long waiting time Serving only regular costumer More than 25 min 1 sandwich

    I'm very impressed by the bread at Bread Head! The sandwiches are messy, but the bread is so good…read moreand really acts as the star of the sandwich. The fillings are just the icing on top! My friend and I got the Cuban and the Combo Grinder to share, and I thought both were very well seasoned, well packed with food, and very delicious. The cost of these sandwiches is a bit pricy, but I think they're worth the splurge to try every now and then. I also have to shout out the service at this location. I came around 15 minutes to closing when the staff was getting ready to clean up, and they still happily took my order and got it out quickly and without errors. I really appreciated that!

    Bread Head is easily at the top of my list for favorite sandwich spots…read more The Calabrian Turkey sub was an instant favorite. The focaccia bread was perfectly crunchy yet airy, and the Calabrian sauce delivered just the right amount of heat. The sandwich came generously stacked with turkey, making the roughly $15 price point feel well worth it. Again, these sandwiches are loaded-- I finished the whole thing in one sitting because it was that good, though honestly, half would be more than enough to satisfy most people. The service was fast, friendly, and welcoming. I was greeted immediately upon walking in, which always sets a great tone. Highly recommend stopping by Bread Head if you're in the area. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to Westwood.
