I initially got it because curry chicken sandwiches always have a sweet element and most places do raisins or apples. Here, they did peach, and I was like, 'damn. I want to try this.' But when I bit into it, the star of the freaking show was the peppercini!! What!??! That vinegary balance with a tiny kick. Mmmm, yeah. Super good that I ate way too much in one sitting.

Cream cheese and potato chips? Somehow it all worked. Sad it is gone. My coworkers love the Prime Rib and BBQ Brisket. I don't recommend the Tuna Salad Sandwich or the Italian. Tuna was dry and the Italian had heavy amounts of olives. We order delivery at 11:AM and don't normally get our sandwiches until 1:30PM. Wait is probably even longer if you are there in person.

Perfection.

It looks like their specialty is definitely cheesecakes, as they had a large variety of premade options displayed and ready for purchase. For the flavor, we went with a simple strawberry cheesecake, and I would say it was good. Personally, it didn't blow me away, but it was still a solid cheesecake overall. This was one of the few spots open before 12 PM at Nixon Plaza, so it definitely had a steady line of people coming in to grab drinks and bread.

I've tried their signature The Melrose, which consists of black forest ham, oven roasted turkey, bacon, melted White American cheese, topped with house slaw (lettuce, red onions, pepperoncini tossed in their "Melrose" spread) and tomato. I absolutely love this sandwich!! It's packed with so much flavor, and the bun absorbs all of the juicy goodness, making every bite incredibly satisfying. Runner-up for me is the Uncle Nikki. This one has Genoa salami, pepperoni, capicola, provolone cheese, also topped with their house slaw. I've only ordered from here through Postmates, and every time their packaging is excellent--they wrap each sandwich in this cute wrapper, which adds a fun touch and keeps everything neatly intact and fresh by the time it arrives. Each sandwich is around $12 (as of June 2026), and I honestly think it's worth the price because these sandwiches are huge and so good!!

Shootz in Whittier delivers bold flavors with their Kimchi Butter Shrimp and Chicken Sando The shrimp is crispy, perfectly coated in their signature kimchi butter, and sprinkled with furikake for an extra umami kick. The Chicken Sando is a standout--juicy, crunchy, and balanced with creamy kimchi aioli and brûléed brown sugar on a soft Hawaiian bun. The fusion of Hawaiian and Asian flavors makes this spot a must-visit for comfort food lovers. Great service, great food--definitely worth the trip! read more

I ordered the #3 wavy bundle. The shrimp was delicious, and I've had a lot of shrimp before. The mac and cheese paired well with it, and the buttery rice was tasty too. I had a hard time saving half of the plate for my husband to try. I also got the strawberry pineapple lemonade, which was refreshing. I will definitely come back to try the chicken dish. read more

Tried chicken, shrimp and pork belly. The issue I had was the staff made few mistakes on the order by adding incorrect items where I had to clarify few times. The one that got to me most was the tiny amount of protein that goes into the spring rolls and when asking for mint, they cut a tiny mint in half and that is what you get. I'm not sure if it was staff or they were trained to provide minimal amount but a bit disappointing on that end when averaging $5 per roll without tax and tip. The sauce was very good which I'll give them that.

Authentic Vietnamese pho, especially the combination beef pho, typically comes with a variety of meats, including beef tripe, beef tendon, beef meatballs, and sliced beef. However, the pho served at this restaurant had none of those ingredients, just a few thin slices of beef. It was extremely disappointing and nothing like the authentic Vietnamese pho I have had at other restaurants. In my opinion, this restaurant is misleading customers by presenting itself as an authentic Vietnamese pho restaurant when the food is far from authentic. I would not recommend this place to anyone looking for real Vietnamese pho.

Because they're a little tucked away, it would be easy to miss them, and I'd hate to see such a great local business struggle just because people don't know they're there. I can honestly say I would choose Chicko Chicken over any other fried chicken place. I'm officially hooked! If you're craving fried chicken, skip the usual chains and give this place a try. I think you'll become a fan too. Let's help support this awesome local business!

We chose shrimp for our protein, and we both figured we'd get four to six at best. Not so.

I went to recently because the tofu was particularly yummy. It also wasn't busy, so that was a plus. Also, I almost forgot to mention they included an extra eggroll in there for some reason and it really made my day because I had been craving one.
