DTLA Bodega - Los Angeles, California

B

The sandwiches are solid. Usually about a 15 min wait. Can’t call ahead.

My only complaint is even with inflation and everything being expensive… this place is just ridiculously priced. Like almost every sandwich is basically about $17-$20 out the door, and for that price you would just expect a bigger sandwich or at least a drink and a some type of small side ! Like The sandwiches are solid but when you look at the size of it after you get it… it just doesn’t ever ever feel worth paying $20 for a small/medium size sandwich and still having to go buy a drink and some chips to go with it.

Also make sure your order is correct before you leave. It’s pretty normal for them to forget condiments or make the sandwich inaccurate.

Other than that lol if you really need a sandwich and Don’t mind it being overpriced, it lowkey hits the spot every time.

I remember when this place popped up and I was excited. It would be the only place to give LA Cafe a run for their money by being 24 hours and serving hot food. I also remember encouraging management to accept EBT as a marketing strategy, telling them it would NOT only allow access to additional revenue streams, but more importantly be INCLUSIVE by making the food more accessible to DTLA's population. I don't remember my advice being well received ?
All in all, this place is OK. As a former New Yorker I was disappointed in the attempted fusion, their bacon egg and cheese bagels broke my spirit. However, as a local I'm grateful to have another option outside of The LA Cafe. Again, the food is OK, and NOTHING compared to a REAL bodega in NY. Pricey and a bit subpar feels like a legit description. I'm BIG on energy, ESPECIALLY when it comes to food and its preperation, that being said the customer service can also use some TLC. If you're STARVING and D -TOWN burger bar is closed, go for it?

This not the only first time the young kid messed up my order like I’m from the East Coast like he continuing to do this is unacceptable like I get my chop cheese n Philly sandwich here and sometime he messes up my order putting mushroom n pepper lettuce n tomato on my sandwich when I don’t ask for those stuff but only the cheese mayo grilled onions only on my meat like the owners n managers need to take action for this and I work for black rock deli plus in New York I used to manage deli n bodegas also please add sazon on the Philly n chop cheese that’s the real flavor to it

Best sandwiches I've had in LA - compared to chains such as subway- also better than local spots like "Ikes" and "My daughters deli"
Great food! Keep them coming!
