Stopped by about 40 minutes before closing today. It was my first time and I wanted to try the chicken mingus, but they had run out of chicken. No worries! I ended up asking the employee what they recommended, since I started to panic and didn't know what else to get. They asked if I like tuna and recommended the tuna on starlight (?), saying that it's a regular for them as well. I took his recommendation, and he suggested to get it on sourdough. I normally don't like sourdough but he said he doesn't either, and said it works with the sandwich. Ok I'll trust you! The sandwich ended up being absolutely delicious! Such a big sandwich, and I had to save half for breakfast tomorrow. I also ordered a ginger cabana, and it was my first time having ginger in a drink. I normally don't like ginger but the slight spiciness was actually quite nice! The customer service was great and the jazzy vibes inside were awesome too. I'm looking forward to coming back and trying that chicken mingus! read more

Perry's Joint - Tuna on Starlight - Sandwiches Near Me - Sierra Madre, California

Man, this place was excellent. A buddy of mine recommended it since I was in town from out of the area and looking for a good spot to eat while staying in Monrovia. I ordered the Big Band sandwich along with a slice of Lemon Pie Cake, and both were outstanding. The sandwich was loaded with fresh pastrami, lettuce, tomato, and pickle, and the cake was absolutely delicious. Everything tasted fresh and homemade, real gourmet comfort food. My brother enjoyed his meal as well, and I even grabbed some ice cream for my little nephew. The owner was there during our visit and was incredibly friendly, professional, and welcoming. The service was excellent. It's a shame places like this are becoming harder to find these days. Any time I'm back in the area, I'll definitely be stopping by again. Thanks for the great food and hospitality! read more

First time coming here & it's arguably the best local deli I've had. I almost don't want to share how delicious this is bc this spot is apparently always slammed. I only hope that they add more headcount because I was a bit hangry after an hour wait for the order. Besides that, it's set in a quiet family and pet friendly community, ample parking, indoor & outdoor seating, and the service is phenomenal too. Love the jazz theme decor & music, such a vibe. I tried the Hey Joe as well as the guru and the balance of these sandwiches are . I can't wait to come back when they have tri tip bc it sells out so quickly read more

Perry's Joint - The Max Roast - Sandwiches Near Me - Sierra Madre, California

Ordered a hot joes sandwich. And split a hot dog with a friend. Had dirty jalapeno chips. The owner/manager, and female staff member were friendly and inviting. They make everything fresh to order. Good food doesn't always mean it'll be fast food. Cool jazz artwork around the sandwich shop. We'll have to try to make it on a day they do tri-tip sandwiches, we aren't too crazy about the cold options. But Joes hits the spot. read more

Fresh ingredients made to order, literally. My sandwiches took about 10 mins to make. Thats a bit longer than expected, since they had to heat up the pastrami and sausage. The Hey Joe was good, but really salty. The Tuna Simone was fresh and had great crunch from the veggies, but the tuna could have used a bit more salt and pepper. read more

A small shop located in Downtown Sierra Madre that serves one of the most excellent sandwiches I've ever had! I got the Chicken Mingus sandwich and it was delicious! They stuff the sandwich with chicken salad and apple slices. The apple slices really added a nice crispness and sweetness to the sandwich. Ingredients were all very fresh and they don't skimp out on the portions. I also ordered a lemonade which was refreshing. I am definitely coming back to try more sandwiches! read more

Which Wich do you Wish?!?! Hey, don't come here if you are looking for a prefab, cheap processed meat sandwich! This place is ridiculously great and everything is made to order! Because they make everything to order, it takes a bit longer than Subw@y but it is definitely worth the wait! I had the Tri Tip on Sourdough (only available Thursday to Saturday) it was so good! Bro had the Pastrami No Chaser on Rye and the pastrami was lean and tender. Both me and my bro had Beets by Perry smoothie and it was delicious! The vibe is ol' skoo jazz playing in the background and made it so chill and relaxing. Love this place so much that it will definitely be my routine place to hang for delicious sandwiches! read more

Friday's are for TRI-TIP I knew I was in trouble the moment I saw tri‑tip is only served Thursday through Saturday so I doubled down, prepared myself, and went all in. I'd heard about Perry's from folks in Altadena, but hearing and tasting are two very different things. Fridays are officially for TRI‑TIP read more

Heard good things about Perry's Joint and I decided to give it a try for lunch since I was in the area! I ended placing a pick up order over the phone and the gentleman I spoke with was so incredibly kind! I pulled up 15 minutes later to pick up my order and the inside is super cute. It has this jazz themed layout and a cozy kind ambiance. I paid and picked up my order and I have to say my sandwich was very delicious. I was looking for something light and flavorful and I felt like the egg sandwich hit my expectations perfectly. All in all I highly would recommend checking this spot out. Not only are the sandwiches delicious but the customer service is absolutely wonderful and they are so sweet! 10/10 :) read more

I was going to try the tri -tip sandwich but read it's only available Thursday - Sunday so ended up getting the pastrami no chaser on sourdough bread added jalapeños & banana peppers cause I love spicy!

This place was a busy little joint, had people coming in & out the whole time I was there! Definite hot spot in Sierra madre.

Best tuna sandwich that I've ever had, and my parents owned a sandwich shop in Long Beach for 20 years. I've had a lot of sandwiches. Pleasant clienteles, delicious food, and friendly service. There's even a small parking lot in the back. It's the perfect place to get lunch after a hike in Chantry Flat. read more

I have been wanting to try this place for quite a while now. What deters me is that they close pretty early and I cannot make it out here for lunch. I got their Hey Joe! which came with hot roast beef, pastrami, toasted hot link, cheese, onion, diced peppers, mayo & mustard. It was honestly a good sandwich but I think the bread could've been better. We did order via the phone because from what I read it gets crowded. We got our food no problem after the phone order so I do recommend doing that if you are tight on time. read more

10 Stars! Amazing sandwiches- this time upon the owner Perry's recommendation I got The Guru. Flat out incredible hot sandwich! I've been coming to this location in the last year, but mostly, I go to the one in Altadena. I always try to bring several friends with me to share the goodness and everyone loves Perry's . The owner it's quite the gentleman and a great lover of Jazz, and just an all around good people person. He creates good vibes. You're a good Hands here and I love the sense of community. Priceless. A+++++Thank you Perry for all the kindness you share with all of us! read more

Perry's Joint - The Guru - Sandwiches Near Me - Sierra Madre, California

Yesterday was my first visit. I'll be coming back again and again. The staff and the food are great. Xlnt jazz vibe. I like a good pastrami. Perry's ups the game by letting the customer choose the bread. I tried it on a croissant. Oh. My. Yes. The sandwich is huge. Could two peeps split one and be content? Definitely! Pair it with a bag o chips and a slice of their lemon drizzle cake. YUM Just follow Tony's advice: Don't eat the cake and think you'll go for a run afterwards. read more

This place was recommended by a friend and it did not disappoint. The friendliness of the staff and the taste of the food made this 5 Stars all the way. I had the tri-tip sandwich and my wife had a pastrami sandwich and both were ridiculously delicious. To be honest, it was the best tri-tip sandwich I've ever had. The meat was juicy and flavorful. Looks that this will be our new go to place in Sierra Madre. Thank you for the great service and the great food. read more

First time in and will not be the last. Hands down, one of the best sandwich spots in the valley. I had the "Hey Joe" and the only negative thing I could say is that the roast beef was slightly bland. Quality and taste were fantastic. Staff was helpful and pleasant. Vibe was welcoming and bright. If you were thinking of trying it, you should. read more

Found this place on way out of town for lunch. Love the vibe and the old classics pictures on the wall. The greeting was so nice. My husband had the veggie sandwich and I had the pastrami. Both on their dark sweet wheat. The veggie looked like the best veggie sandwich I ever saw and husband loved it. Pastrami is my thing. It was the tenderest most flavorful meat I ever had. With only mustard and pickles. Seriously go have a sandwich. You won't regret it. read more

Sandwiches are very good. But today we ordered at noon and waited 50 mins for our order. They only had one person in the kitchen and a customer was talking to him the whole time he's trying to get things done. 45 minutes into our wait, they told us they ran out of chicken. We had to change sandwiches orders. No apology no sense of urgency, We finally got home and they had screwed up our order. read more

Me and the sister were out doing some shopping and wanted a quick bite to eat. These sandwiches caught our eye. Perry's joint opens at 11am Monday to Saturday. They were a little late opening 11:08 but might be due to some staff arriving after 11. The place has simple but a generous nod to jazz music. We were missing the jazz music playing, would be a lovely addition while waiting for our meal. We shared the Guru on dark sweet wheat bread and literally blew our expectations out of the water. Amazing sandwich, best I've have in a long time. Perfect amount to share and so so so good. A must stop if you are craving a sandwich. read more

It has been years since I had gone to Perry's Joint on the other side of town on Lincoln. And his Sierra Madre store has been open for awhile, so I finally stopped in to give it a try. For some reason I just assumed they'd have something similar to a philly steak sandwich. As it turns out they don't. So the gentleman behind the counter spent sometime with me trying to figure out how to make an impromptu steak sandwich. Well, we used the trip tip, jalapeño pepper's, red onions, swiss cheese, pepperoncini peppers, cut pickle spears and mayo. OK, not a Philly but a damn delicious sandwich as it turns out. They were so sweet and patient with me and having been disappointed about not getting my Philly Steak Sandwich, I was truly surprised how great my sandwich was with a ton of tri-tip meat and pickles (love my pickles) on it. No good excuse for waiting so long to try Perry's Joint out, but I'm finally happy i did. Everyone couldn't have been nicer. Will return a lot sooner. read more

Great place to grab lunch! I got the Big Bird Sandwich on dark sweet wheat bread and I was shocked at how big the sandwich is. The sandwich is stuffed with a lot of turkey, lettuce, tomato, and avocado. I was quite full off half of the sandwich. The service was good, the sandwich came out pretty fast. There are a few small tables inside if you wanna dine in. Parking is on the street, but wasn't hard to find. read more

I have been going to Perry's Joint for a couple of years at his Altadena Location. I have been to this location a few times and I love it. It's very trendy with a twist of jazz decor. The sandwiches are amazing with quality meat, bread, and ingredients. Many variations of sandwiches to choose from. Perry, the owner. Is so nice and cares about his customers. His staff is always clean, professional, and helpful. This is my favorite place to eat any kind of sandwich my hunger desires. They have healthy smoothies, hot dogs, vegan options, chips, drinks, and desserts that are also tasty. Prices are affordable and the location is in a perfect area. Note: My favorite things to order are the hot links and a tuna melt sandwich. I was so hungry I forgot to take a picture of my hotlink. I had devoured it before I realized I did not take a picture. At this location, they don't have the ice cream yet, but it's coming soon. I can't wait because I love their root beer floats. read more
