    WOW TALK ABOUT HIDDEN GEMS!!! This one is IT. Mind you we leave near by and have never visited this place up until recently. They have sandwiches, hot dogs, smoothies and ice cream. Also healthy green juices! We came in on a whim, I got the roast beef sandwhich, my husband got a turkey sandwich. Both were MEATY HEARTY and a mouth FULL. YUMMY FLAVOR and fresh ingredients! The ambiance is easy and welcoming, the people working have a smile on their face from the moment you open the door to upon completing your order. The jazz vibes are a super sweet touch. JOHN COLTRANE. Enough said. Pick up to go or come in and sit down to eat they have space. This place is a GEM. Upon reviewing I found they have other locations... we will definitely be visiting soon!

    Hey Joe Sandwich
    Eubene K.

    Cute little sandwich shop! Has so much soul with all the decor and music that sets the tone. Sandwiches are no joke! Big as my hand! Inside was nice and quiet Workers were chill and sandwich pros Definitely coming back! Big band is where it's at Big Joe looks good but feel like the hot link over takes the flavor!

    Hip bird (bottom) & Hey Joe (top)
    Shirley W.

    We were looking for a place to stop by along the way and wanted to try this out. We went ahead to order in advance by placing our order through the phone, which is pretty convenient tbh. When we got there, we found it's located in a medical plaza, so it's not at an obvious place to find! Street parking would be your best bet. The joint itself was very spacious, ample of tables, but also many others waiting for their order. We saw that even though we placed our phone order ahead, it seemed like the employees were working pretty slowly... which makes sense for the hold up of people waiting for their sandwiches. Getting our sandwiches, we got the Hip Bird and the Hey Joe sandwich. Honestly the Hip Bird is a very classic sandwich, although I wish there was more avocado on it. Everything tasted fresh but the more I ate, the more I thought about how I could've just made this sandwich at home lol. Nothing too impressive, but it's not really worth the price you're paying for it unless you're lazy. Also the mustard sauce in it didn't seem like it enhanced it that much. Wish there was something more special about it. As for the Hey Joe, it's definitely all the meats in one sandwich that my bf enjoys, but that destroyed him LOL it was so heavy, very greasy, just heart clogging. The sandwich is good, but makes you feel pretty terrible about yourself (unless you enjoy it all the way). Otherwise, service was mid, sandwiches are okay. I probably wouldn't go out of my way to visit here again.

    We came in for a sandwich after my husband found them on Yelp. We entered and were greeted as we browsed their menu posted above their counter. We ordered a Hey Joe sandwich to share and a cherry lemonade. I was reluctant to order that large of a sandwich but my husband wanted it so I went along with his choice. It took a while for our sandwich to be ready, but it was worth the wait. It was filled with pastrami, roast beef, melted cheese, and a hot link. I ate a quarter of it and my husband had no problem finishing the rest of it. The restaurant seemed to be popular with locals as we saw a number of take out orders, as well as diners inside and on their patio. If in the area, I'd stop in again. Street parking, but be careful of traffic if you need to cross the street.

    The Guru Sandwich
    Jessica Y.

    There is street parking in front of the restaurant. They have both indoor and outdoor patio seating. I tried the guru sandwhich which is a hot sandwhich on wheat bread. It was so delicious. Lots of fillings. Juicy meat with crunch vegetables. I really liked the sandwhich. Staff is very nice there. It was a very hot day and he offered me a cup to get iced water. Very spacious inside.

    The Hip Bird Sandwich and Pastrami Sandwich (No Chaser)
    Sara K.

    Great local sandwich shop- support Altadena small business! Artfully assembled sandwiches with fresh plentiful ingredients and nice customer service. Hip Bird had lots of turkey and went really well on sweet wheat. Also got the pastrami on sourdough too. Both sandwiches were excellent, but the pastrami was 10/10!

    Egg salad sandwich
    Mike P.

    Expertly crafted sandwiches overstuffed with goodness. We love coming to this little shop and supporting Altadena businesses. Perry is often present at the restaurant and stops by to say hello to customers. You just don't see that kind of personal attention much. He runs a great shop. I tried the veggie dog Detroit style. It's pretty good. Of course veggie dogs aren't the same thing as beef hot dogs, but putting on some delicious toppings makes it very enjoyable. Parking seems to be relegated to street parking. There is a lot behind the restaurant but it appears to be for the medical offices in the building.

    Big Bang Sandwich

    The freshest sandwich around. Easily feeds two people. Service is great and fast. Yum!

    Amazing sandwich spot. Friendly and welcoming service. Plenty of seating. Love the jazz music they play.

    The Guru
    Haley W.

    Now that Pas Sandwich Co is gone I decided I needed to try a new local spot and Perry's Joint did not disappoint! Easy street parking, large building, clean and neat. The staff was super friendly while taking my order and started a little conversation while I waited for my food. The wait was a bit long considering it wasn't busy but I didn't mind much. They have both indoor and outdoor seating and they had no problem with my dog sitting on the patio with me. I loved the art they had on display, just a place with great vibes and great sandwiches. I was shocked by how phenomenal the pastrami was considering they're not a pastrami specific shop. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu!

    The Tuna Simone Sandwich
    Tu T.

    So good. I had no time to make lunch this morning so I checked out Perry's Joint nearby. I ordered the Tuna Simone/tuna melt on sourdough. This thing was HUUGE (which is great because I was starving). I could only eat half bc it was so big (excuse the janky picture). So delicious. The icing on the cake was the great customer service from the gentlemen working behind the counter. I highly recommend!

    Tri-tip
    Jaime R.

    Perry's Joint in Sierra Madre, CA, serves delicious, huge, and lovingly crafted sandwiches. I've tried the Hip Bird - turkey with lettuce, avocado on fresh dark wheat bread - and the Tri-Tip Sandwich, both of which were fantastic. The sandwiches are fresh, filling, and made with high-quality bread and condiments. Just a heads-up: order in advance and avoid the busy lunch hours, or be prepared to wait. This isn't a fast food joint, but it's definitely worth the wait! After the fires, please support this local, Black-owned business - you won't regret it!

    Tuna Tuna by Starlight Sandwich
    Susan M.

    Great little sandwich shop in a really cute part of Pasadena. I had the tuna sandwich they added onions and pickles, and my friends have the chicken salad sandwich. All were really good and fresh and delicious. I will be coming back next time. I'm in Pasadena.

    Is there parking?

    There's street parking in front and the side. Its very limited

    Has the indoor seating reopened?

    If you are referring to the outdoor patio area, yes. Plenty. We sat int he courtyard outside of the place.

    Is there indoor seating?

    There was outdoor seating available when I visited in February 2022. There was also really cool, classic jazz playing outside-- an added bonus.

    What is on the "secret menu"?

    There isn't really a large secret menu here- However, you can order a float with sodas and ice creams besides rootbeer and vanilla, and you can do the same for the ingredients in the sherbet freeze.

    Do they have Gluten Free Bread?

    Bread options: Wheat, rye, sourdough, squaw. Croissant 50¢ extra

    Is Perry's closed for the holiday? I went yesterday and it was closed. No one is answering the telephone today, wondering if they are closed? No signs..

    They are open today 1/2/2018.

    Has anybody made the suggestion that perhaps they could offer wine or beer?

    Dog Haus is located at 105 North Hill Avenue Suite 104 Pasadena California 91106. This location is…read moreone block North of Colorado Boulevard. The building is on the West side of Hill Avenue. It houses a number of small boutique eating establishments. There are a number of outside tables along the side of the building. Upon entering the double doors, I was greeted with a friendly hello. I had a number of questions about the items on the menu, which is extensive. They seem to have everything - hot dogs,sausages, chicken, burgers, breakfast burritos, bowls, and sides. There is something on their menu that will make everyone happy. Take the time to read the entire menu. It is very creative and descriptive. Clearly well thought out. After contemplating what I should have, I ordered Chili Cheese Tots, Das Brat, Little Mule, and the Borracho Breakfast Burrito. The breakfast burrito was the last minute decision; it's only been on the menu for a few months. I just had to try it. The Chili Cheese Tots had a little bite and were tasty. Das Brat still had a great aroma as I took it out of its wrapping. Nice bite to the sausage and great pairing with the soft King's Hawaiian grilled bun. I ordered it with everything. That was a great decision. The condiments added to the full flavor... hot mustard and sauerkraut was definitely a good pairing. The Little Mule was an unexpected surprise. The burger had a great flavor and the two cheeses, white American and cotija, grilled jalapeno, and fried egg with Chipotle aioli created a burger that one wants to order again. The Borracho Burrito is loaded with fresh scrambled eggs, a nice bite and filled with smokey bacon flavor. This breakfast burrito has ingredients that make it special for any time of the day or night. There are so many different variations of food available at the Dog Haus, I'll definitely be a repeat customer. Great customer service, great food, great innovations on their menu, and a great atmosphere. No need to look any further to enjoy a great time.

They mainly serve burgers, dogs/sausages, chicken and breakfast burritos; there are multiple varieties of each, and all are quite substantial. The burgers and dogs are served on King's Hawaiian rolls (4 per burger, 3 per dog). I'm partial to the Little Mule burger, the Sooo Cali dog and the Impossible Cali burrito; the Cali dog and burrito have avocado, which I love. This location just recently started opening up early, a good thing because their breakfast burritos are legit. They give local fave Bbad on Colorado a run for their money, and are possibly a better value. I usually order on their app for pick-up. Their rewards program is quite nice with frequent promotions, a big reason for my fairly frequent visits. The service at this location, however, is not a strength in terms of friendliness. It's the food and perks that keep me coming back.

Tonight we decided to switch things up a little, and hubby ordered the bacon cheeseburger. Normally we prefer the quarter-pound patty, but this one was slightly thicker, which definitely made us feel full a lot quicker. That said, the burger was still super juicy, had the right filling-to-meat ratio, and came on that perfectly soft bun that holds everything together without falling apart. Solid choice. I stuck with my usual chicken breast salad, and it was delicious as always. Fresh, satisfying, and dependable -- although I'll admit I'm still not a fan of bell peppers, so those got politely pushed to the side. One thing I have noticed over time is that the fries seem to be getting a little smaller in portion each visit. I also miss the thicker-cut fries from about six months ago -- those were my favorite. The current ones still do the job, but the old style definitely had my heart. Overall, this is still a definite must-try spot if you're craving a good burger. Consistent, satisfying, and always hits the spot. Happy eats!

Their pastrami sandwich sandwiches are loaded, but they're all meat burrito three pieces of meat and all salad. Ridiculous. Look either charge the money for a steak burrito. It's full of steak or lower your prices but paid way too much money for no meat, don't waste your money oh and their onion rings and there's zucchini not the same quality breaded quality that used to have too. They're OK, but also not the same they need to work on their food again starting to slip.

First bite of the burger was a little disappointing. Burger was thin and seemed overcooked to me. I thought it was dry. Roll, lettuce, tomato, onion and mayo were ok. Not bad overall but for some reason I expected a better burger experience. Let's talk about the fries. Truly classic French fried potatoes. Perfectly cooked. Light golden color. Nice texture and flavor. What every French fry should look and taste like. Coke was great. Sorry to say I was not impressed by the burger. This was my experience on 05/09/2026. Could have been cleaner and maybe the burger not overcooked. Your experience may be totally different.
