When I travel I rely on Yelp to find good, local places to eat and to meet clients and on this trip to the L.A. area, I told some business associates to meet at Yo-Way based upon the reviews. Honestly, I did not look at the photos closely and when I pulled into the parking lot, I had second thoughts. HOWEVER, we all thought Yo-Way had the best deli sandwiches any of us have had in years!!!! It was amazing and the owner was there and showed us the ropes on how to order. I can't say enough about the food and the staff. I will go out of my way to have lunch at Yo-Way when I'm in town in the future. This place is GREAT!!! read more

My sandwich was delicious. Generous portions and reasonably priced. The owner and support staff are friendly and engaging

Sooo delicious! It's difficult to find good sandwich places nowadays! Food was great! Service was so friendly and nice! As well as the shop itself! Clean, lots of spaces to eat! Great shop! It was near my jobsite. Will be back! read more

I love this place, but I arrived here at 4:36PM today, Saturday, and it's closed even though the sign outside says closes at 5PM on Saturday and the hours on yelp say closes at 5PM on Saturday. read more

I placed an order online on Dec 23rd to be picked up on 24th which website had the date and time available when I was choosing the date. my card was charged; I even called twice but no one answered the phone. There was no greeting recorded announcing the business holiday hours or closure. We went to pick up the order the next day on Dec 24th but there was a sign on the door "Closed for Holidays until Jan 5th". I have calle again and left a message. A refund must be processed as soon as possible. read more

First time here and it won't be the last. I'm assuming the guy who greeted us was the owner and he was so nice and welcoming. His customer service was as amazing as the food I ate. I wish I took a picture of my sandwich but as soon as I got a bite I couldn't put it down and devoured it in less than 5 minutes. I got the Cajun turkey and my boyfriend created his own chicken pesto sandwich. 10/10 recommend. Will be returning read more

Wow this was such a good sandwich ! I don't think I've ever eaten a sandwich that quick, I live maybe 30 mins away but was in the area at the time. Next time I'll definitely have to try a different sandwich . I might even drive there just for one ! The spot is nice, comforting, and the staff was really nice. read more

If you are a sandwich-lover, you will love Yo-Way. I am a vegetarian and they have the best veggie sandwiches. You can customize your own w/ a huge list of bread options, cheese, veggies, sauces, dressings... They have SPROUTS!! And true sandwich lover knows if a place has sprouts, it's gotta be great!! I've been here twice. The owner is so kind and you can tell he truly loves making a beautiful, stacked sandwich and takes pride in his business! Come support this business. They are a hidden gem!! read more

Yo-Way Eatery - Vegetarian sandwich So fresh and SO GOOD! This was just half the sandwich! - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Gardena, California

I did a review on this Eatery A few years back and they still make the best sandwiches other than homemade. Service is always good and pleasant and I highly recommend this for anyone wanting a good sandwich custom made the way you want. Whether you're doing this to bring back home or go on a picnic or a trip to the beach. I've had them cater for me twice and have not been disappointed. Price point is mid to high the well worth it. read more

Raging Cajun. Reviews didnt lie and this joint didnt disappoint and never does. My go-to spot for lunch time.

This place still killing it. Such a great sub to take on the road when cruising through. 5 star hidden sandwich gem with excellent quality products. I recommend all day. read more

Don't usually leave reviews but from the moment I walked in, it was very family energy. Amazing customer service and the food is spot on! Highly recommend the poppin pastrami! read more

Yo-Way Eatery - Poppin pastrami - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Gardena, California

Sooooo good. I hike and love to bring a good sandwich when I am at the peak of a 2000ft climb. To find a sandwich that would meet the demands of that kind of appetite is a rarity in a city. Went here with my mom. Both of us loved our sandwiches. Only could eat half, but strongly considering felling over full just to have more. Ate the second half the next day and despite all the pickles and sauce the bread held up. Was not overly "bready" as you can see in the picture. Bread is firm with a solid crust. None hard and easy to bite through. The sauce and pickle combination is excellent. Really solid on the meat veggie ratio. We also got the tea cookies and some New Orlean chips, all excellent. If I have the opportunity when I visit the area again would make an effort to go out of my way to eat there again. All 3 staff, and maybe owner, were enthusiastic and friendly. Great atmosphere. Small place and off the beaten path. Go there, you won't regret it. read more

This place single-handedly ended my search for an amazing sandwich in the South Bay LA area. Step aside Sandwich Blvd, step aside Giuliano's, step aside Busy Bee, etc etc. Located in an unsuspecting lot shared with a liquor store and across from a truck lot, you'll find red tents that tout the Boar's Head name. Inside, you'll find the best damn sandwiches you could have. First thing's first - the customer service is amazing. I was welcomed by a friendly man behind the counter; I told him I was in search of the best sandwich in the area and he confidently said this would be it. The menu is quite extensive; to order, you need to pick up a laminated menu and mark what you want with a marker. They allow for a plethora of customizations, which will allow you to make your own idea of the perfect sandwich. I went for the Pop's Italian, with no modifications, to get an idea of how they stack it up. I grabbed myself a bag of Tim's Jalapeno chips and a Snapple and sat down as I waited for the sandwich. Eventually, the man (I really should have asked for his name, but I'll catch it next time) came to me and handed the sandwich himself. "Enjoy," he said. The eyes and the phone ate first; the sandwich looked massive and juicy, so I already knew it was the real deal. The first bite was an explosion of flavor. The avocado, the rye bread, the bacon, and all the other things stuffed inside came together in harmony. I reluctantly traded the other half of my sandwich to my friend in exchange for their half of the Slammin' Italian. That sandwich was amazing too, although I think I'm already sold on Pop's. In my opinion, the Slammin' Italian was a tad too heavy on the oil, whereas the Pop's felt cleaner and more refreshing. Be warned that this place is closed on Sundays; you have to catch them every other day, before 6PM. I'll be coming back VERY soon to try the rest of the menu. Cheers! read more

I don't know why I have not done a review for this place since my office is down the street and we order from here quite often. This spot used to be on the top 100 places to eat in America. If you ask me, it still should be on that list. The size of the sandwiches, the quality of the bread and meat, all make for a perfect bite every time. The service from the owner & staff is always amazing and you can tell they make your sandwich with love. There isn't a favorite sandwich I have because every single one I've tried were super delicious. The interior is simple but gives you that hidden gem feel. I like ordering off the dry erase menu to ensure accuracy of your ingredients. I highly recommend this place for locals or out of town visitors. You can thank me later cause it's definitely going to be your new favorite read more

Yo-Way Eatery - Pops Italian was my choice today. Beautiful cross section - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Gardena, California

What's great about this shop is that the sandwich had a little something extra and different than other shops. My poppin Italian sandwich had spinach and bell peppers, which were perfect, and they made the prosciutto crunchy, which added great texture and flavor. Great service as well. read more

This is the third time I get bread like this. The grill is clearly dirty not cleaned correctly, my sandwich wasn't even cut yet my partners was. Weird. Can definitely taste the dirty grill on the sandwich. read more

I went here a couple of days ago & there was a guy waiting in line in front of me. The owner asked him what was he doing & he said he is waiting to order. The owner proceeded to say "I was wondering what you were doing standing there" Like sir why else would this guy stand in front of the sign that says "order here" LOL I actually like the sandwiches here & I honestly dislike the way the owner treated this guy. It was extremely unprofessional & unnecessary read more

This little shop is serving some delicious sandwiches. I gobbled it up with great satisfaction LOL. The gentleman at the counter was friendly and they have so many options to choose from. I can't wait to go back soon! read more

Amazing sandwich and service. The bread and ingredients are high quality. Will definitely be back.

I just left Yo-Way Eatery about 30 minutes ago. Yo-Way did it again!!! My sandwich was huge and delicious. I'd like to go on and on but I would just be repeating what I said in my last review. The consistency of the deliciousness of their sandwiches ensures I'll be back next month. Thanks for a great meal. PS there's a really popular sandwich place in LA that has a reputation of being one of the best sandwich shops. Yo-way, you are second to none!!! read more

What a cute lil store. I was warmly welcomed upon entry and was impressed by the set-up in such a small space. Outdoor seating was sufficient; indoors seating was cool ((as in AC was on)). The stack on these sandwiches is amazing. Ingredients are pretty fresh - the seasoning and sauces make it taste great. Sourdough bread was a little too dry for me, but I'd come back to try a different bread. read more

Food- fire Service- fire ambiance- fire Glad to be able to support a local business and not be disappointed. I got the turkey sandwich and tuna sandwich. The turkey was amazing, the tuna was decent. But the staff was spot on with their descriptions on the sandwiches. I ordered both sandwiches because I wanted turkey, but I'm a huge fan of tuna. I try to never pass up on an opportunity for a tuna tasting. read more

I am in LOVE with this place and I need the world to know!! I've come here about 10 times in the past 2 months since discovering this small hole in the wall restaurant. I always order the same thing as I am a creature of habit. The blazin cajun sandwich is out of this world! The sandwich is made on squaw bread piled high with Cajun turkey. This sandwich is always consistent with the toppings and bursting with flavor. If you like spicy this is the one for you!! The staff is always extremely friendly. If you are in the area give it a try. You will not be disappointed! Don't forget the chips for a nice crunch!! read more

Yo-Way Eatery - Lettuce wrapped Pops italian sub with modifications and add ons. Non dairy, soy free, gluten free. - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Gardena, California

We got a variety of sandwiches. All had the same issue, lack of meat. They could have doubled what they put which would been barely sufficient. So it's more of a bread sandwich with a hint of meat. Looking at pictures of what others posted, my sandwich looked nothing like them. I got maybe 20%, they didn't even put enough for the thin slices to cover the bread. To attempt to make it taste like a sandwich, I put all the meat onto one half. Helped but still lacking. I looked through several pictures, even the one I found that looked like it had less meat than the other pictures has triple what mine had. So I don't know what the story is there. Perhaps the posted pictures are fake bait and switch. How they got such a high average rating doesn't make sense. read more

Yo-Way Eatery - triple amount of meat compared to what MINE had - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Gardena, California

The ingredients for the sandwiches are pretty good. The staff was friendly but move kinda slow so it takes longer than expected if you order in store vs online. Main issue is that even though the sandwiches look big, it seems like too much bread to meat ratio. I ended up taking off one side of the bread. I do like how they toast the sandwiches. read more

This time around I got the blazon Cajun and my mouth was on fire. It's such a good sandwich and it really isn't that hot. I just can't handle spicy at all. The bread is so soft and tender. The staff is friendly and nice. There's a restroom inside with some seating indoor and outdoor. If you're coming to have a sandwich, definitely get the blazon cajun. You won't be disappointed. read more

Showed up at 4:30 on a Saturday and it was closed! No note on the door or anything. Very disappointing.

It was small, like someone's store front kitchen from home. The staff was pleasant. U order with a lament menu n dry eraser. Easy peasy. It was quick service, it was pretty full when we got there so it was a win for the quick delivery. Now the food was fresh, pastrami meat was tasty. The bread French roll was so soft. Not to mention the portion was hella big. My husband got the Blazin Cajun. It had no chance for a photo op. Maybe next time. For sure will be back. We live in South Central LA. The fast track will let us off right here . Win win.... read more

Yo way is located in a small strip area with liquor store, groomer then Yo Way. Right off the 91 Freeway. Came here for the first time today and was greeted by the owner. He let us know how to order , on the dry erase menu, and we ordered a Blazin Turkey Cajun and Pops Italian. We looked around, picked up our chips (great selection of both rare regional chips and regular store chips), they also had a selection of bottled drinks, cookies/deserts, and sides like Potato Salad, soup, etc. Got about 6 bags of chips. The two ladies behind the counter were busy piling on the meats, toasting the bread, while we chatted with the owner about our selections. I commented on the Olive Tapenade and how it was a nice touch and he commented that he made the Tapenade himself. When we got home we finished both sandwiches in like 2 minutes lol. We only got a bite of each other's sandwich, we were too busy eating this sandwich up! This is probably the best sandwich in town I've ever had. I would call this a gourmet home sandwich. I have been to a ton of franchise and small town sandwiches but none compare to this sandwich. This place is worth all the hype! read more
