Laguna Italian
Brian M.

I'm not sure I understand the hype for this place. I stood in line for about 30 min in the scorching sun. We ordered our sandwiches and then went in the back area to wait about another 20 minutes. The seating area in the back is very nice. I had the Laguna Italian and also tried the Roast Beef. The Laguna Italian tasted fine (Dutch Crunch roll was nice but it was really hard and actually cut up the top of my mouth a bit, the meats tasted good but did not taste fresh cut - 3.5/5). The Roast Beef was average (the beef was close to medium and cut too thick. Not much provided either - 2.5/5. I feel like both sandwiches were missing a nice sauce. The workers are all very nice but not very attentive. Glad I tried it and maybe I came on an off day or ordered wrong but I don't think I would wait for this again.

We ordered ahead so I didn't spend much time inside but they have a cute patio in the back that you can get drinks at, watch some sports, AND they have soooo many games to play. Would be a fun date spot during the day. Sandwiches were pretty good but nothing like crazy special about them. I got the salad. My boyfriend got the sandwich and he liked their bread. This place was quite busy but staff was on top of it and makes everything very quickly.

Super grinder (do not order)

Fun sub sandwich spot in Laguna! It's called "Wigz" as it used to be a wig shop. Ordered the wigs grinder, Turkey and avocado squaw bread. The grinder was odd as it came with arugula and just overall all the ingredients did not go well together, the Turkey avocado on squaw bread was amazing. For $22 a sandwich you would assume it would come with chips but those are extra.

Pleasantly surprised!! After moving my daughter out of the dorms we went down to Laguna and she recommended this place. I wasn't a fan of getting a sandwich but I will say IM GLAD I DID! Our sandwich was delicious! The bread is out of this world. The arugula so fresh. Clean, cute place, not far from the water, just on the main steeet. Thankfully we got parking right outside front.

I personally love an establishment where employees feel relaxed. I love when they talk with each other and have fun at their job. Everyone was friendly and inviting. They were kind to every person who came through the door. Yummy and generous sandwiches! Every bite was flavorful. The ingredients were fresh. Definitely want to return!

This place is so damn good. First off, such an awesome vibe. The guy at the counter super friendly and helpful and there was also a very nice local that gave my girlfriend and I a run down on the whole menu. It felt so welcoming. Now onto the food, these sandwiches were so good. It was such a fresh taste, and we enjoyed them in the cozy seating out back that seemed to be some type of beer garden later on in the evening. I wish I lived in Laguna and could grab these tasty sandwiches everyday. So if you find yourself in Laguna beach, enjoy a nice lunch at this spot!

This spot seriously hit the spot. I ordered the Laguna Caprese and added both capicola and bacon, and it completely elevated the sandwich. The capicola added that perfect salty, slightly spicy depth while the bacon brought a smoky crunch that paired so well with the fresh mozzarella avocado, and tomatoes. Everything tasted super fresh and high quality, and the balance of flavors was honestly perfect--not too heavy but still really satisfying. The bread was soft with a slight crisp on the outside, holding everything together without getting soggy. You can tell they really care about their ingredients and how everything is put together. It felt like a simple sandwich turned into something way more elevated with just those add-ons. Definitely one of the best sandwiches I've had in Laguna Beach and I'll 100% be coming back for the same order.

They have a small parking lot in the rear otherwise park on the street since it is on the main street of coast hwy. Came after the beach activities and was pleased! Its been awhile since I had a simple sandwich and they have some great selections! They have seating towards the back which is like a shaded outdoor area with a bar and TV's Very cute and homey its like you walked into someones well kept backyard Ordered; 2 bags of chips and 1 can soda the spicy tuna melt/nicks way (you can order this in different ways: regular tuna melt, either traditional or nicks way) And a bacon avocado turkey sandwich which were both flavorful and filling all their sandwiches from what i learned are about 8in long I highly recommend

Table decor .. got wigz?

Maybe I was affected by driving all day from Phoenix, but the sandwich I had here totally hit the spot for a quick dinner. There was no waiting in line and service was fast with a helpful cashier who also made some of the sandwiches. While they were out of my favorite Dutch crunch bread (must arrive earlier in the day instead of an hour before closing next time!), the French roll used to hold all the fillings was as perfect as could be without being Dutch crunch. All the fillings on my Gabagool Grinder were fresh. I'd maybe have liked more pepperoncinis on it, but that's more of a "me problem." It wasn't cheap at $16 for the sando, but it was big enough to share and even Subway footlongs are 10-15 bucks these days. There is a bar in the back with more seats than the handful of tables in front, so we sat there to avoid traffic and have some shade. I'd definitely return.

I thought the ambiance was great upon walking in. It's small but long, having the back patio available to the customers if you need additional seating. My boyfriend and I bought the Italian sandwich and it was good. I did think the bread was too hard and also paid extra for cheese and never got any cheese in the sandwich. We only noticed it after we got to the beach which was a bummer.

Mayo sandwich with a tiny bit of cheese and mustard.
Thelma A.

When the sandwiches are made correctly, they're tasty. I ordered the Laguna Caprese yesterday, and after the 45 minutes it took to get the order (they said 25-30 when we placed it), I got home and my sandwich was missing the arugula. Still tasty but a bummer as I love arugula! Today I decided to place an order right when they opened for pickup, so it wouldn't be busy (less chance of error), plus I wouldn't have to wait at all. I ordered a basic sando with no meat. Picked up my order around 10:30 am, no wait, easy peasy. Opened it at noon to eat it for lunch, and shame on me for not checking it before I left! It was bread with mayo, a dot of mustard, and a tiny bit of cheese. No shredded lettuce, no tomato, no onion. Basically a mayo sandwich. This time I called to complain as I really don't want to eat bread with mayo. I had to drive back down the hill to get the new one...a 10 minute drive, and then circling for 5 to find parking since lunch hour is so busy and what I was trying to avoid! This time I unwrapped it before I left to make sure I got what I ordered. (Would have been nice to throw in a bag of chips or a cookie for free given the inconvenience.) The little bar/biergarten out back is cute. And surely where you'll wait if you go at peak times and don't order ahead. I'd order for pickup again in the future, but no way would I leave without checking it.

Completely forgot to take a picture before I ate but this is my go to spot when im in laguna beach. They get very packed so it can take a while but definitely worth the time. Workers are always friendly. They have a few seats inside and outside as well as a bar outside which is super cool. I love this place!

Denwich
Alyssa P.

We ordered 3 different sandwiches: - pesto melt with turkey - denwich - turkey bacon avocado Food was good. We went at lunch primetime so the wait was a bit long, but the vibes were great! We're local and there was a good mix of local and the beach goers. Staff was kind and helpful. There's a little bar area in the back I'd highly recommend. Will definitely be back for one of the local night events!

When I asked about them, the staff member who helped me was quite unpleasant and explained that the baker was really backed up and that making the cupcakes was at the bottom of the list. I understood that things can get busy, and I was willing to give her the benefit of the doubt, thinking maybe she was just having a bad day. Unfortunately, I had a similar experience when I returned. This time, I wanted to purchase 12 muffins, four for each of my three kids. The same staff member seemed visibly annoyed by my order and repeatedly asked another employee how many muffins were left. I simply explained that my children really enjoy them, but her attitude made me feel uncomfortable for purchasing that quantity. We live here in Laguna, and it's disappointing to have an experience like this at a local business. I completely understand that bakeries get busy and that certain items may sell out, but kindness and courtesy go a long way. I hope Zinc takes this feedback to heart because a little warmth and better customer service can make such a difference in how customers feel when they walk through the door.

I really enjoyed the beans and liked that it was offered as something different. I also ordered a spicy michelada with Modelo which was really good. For food we shared the pollo à la chipotle and seafood enchiladas. Both entrees were really good! You could taste the crab in the enchiladas and the sauce on the chicken was really good. The chicken was also moist and not dry. I enjoyed the chile relleno but felt like it wasn't needed. My boyfriend really liked the rice. They offered us more chips once we ran out and brought out a fresh batch. Oh my, the chips were amazing when they were still warm! If I wasn't full I could've eaten the whole basket myself.

Bob's Fine Wine is the real deal. This place works whether you're looking for a Tuesday-night bottle or something in the $200+ range that requires you to explain to your spouse why it was "actually a very good value." The selection is impressive. I even found Behrens Family here, which isn't always easy to track down--and at a really good price. That was the moment I knew these guys were serious. What I especially like is that you don't need to be a wine collector to appreciate the place. There's something for everyone, from a solid daily drinker to bottles you'll stare at for six months waiting for an occasion important enough to open them. It really is a blessing to have this kind of selection right here in our town. Great wine, knowledgeable people, and genuine passion behind what they're doing. P.S. They also sell other alcohol, for those strange people who apparently drink things besides wine.

It's super old-school so when you walk in it's very crowded with boxes on top of boxes and it's fairly dark at the back which I was told it was because some of the wines are light sensitive. I love knowing that they are so knowledgeable about the wines that they care for them in the proper way! They do have an extensive wine collection from all over the world and all price points. I did not have the pleasure of meeting Bob, the owner, today, but I did meet Baine, who works for Bob! He was so knowledgeable on all the wines and gave me the best options to try. I'm so excited to give my choices a shot. All I had to do was tell him what I like and kind of the general profile of what I like and he directed me with expert knowledge!
