Dave's Chillin N Grillin

I stopped by for their Thanksgiving Day meal and some matzo ball soup. Great, comforting, amazing food. I was not surprised because the couple cooking and slinging the food were very friendly and warm people. I implore anyone to give this business your time. They are the type of business and people you want to support because they care about the community and the people around. They also make damn good food. I'm excited to go back and try their many sandwiches!

Fantastic BLT. When I walked in and Dave started talking about ingredient ratios in sandwiches, I knew I was in good hands. Go support their soft opening!

Outstanding Italian sandwich (sub/hoagie), just like you'd find in Philly or New York - a rare find in L.A. Friendly and helpful staff - great experience. It's a little tricky to find - the entrance is not on Fig, it's in the alley between Fig and the Highland Park metro station. There is metered parking back there.

There are not enough words, for how amazing this business is!! Consistently high-quality food that tastes wonderful every time. Whenever I think of lunch and/or catering, Dave & Ghaz come to the rescue. They are focused on serving fantastic food and providing great service.!!

I’ve been going here ever since I was a kid and I still order their classic grilled cheese because it’s so simple and delicious. Another favourite is the meatball sub! Give Dave’s a try, you won’t regret it!

If you plan on placing an order for pick up and waiting in the parking lot, expect to be kept waiting. The guys at Chops Butchers were far more attentive. They actually checked on me twice before anyone from Dave’s showed up. Even then a lady handed the gentleman behind me a post mates order and walked off without a word. Finally got tired of standing around, called in my order and continued to wait. Incredibly annoying. Update** A lady finally shows up and she’s sassy -_- . I understand that things are stressful and your establishment is busy but common curtesy goes a long way. Food was good but not worth the attitude.

Just found this spot, have only been there once but my initial experience was good! The wife and I were looking for a quality sandwich spot in the area and this checked all our boxes. We had the Italian and the Davewich. Both were great. The guy taking orders was super friendly and talkative. This will be my new local sandwich spot.

The sandwiches are fantastic, Rosemary's Sandwich has always been my go to. I've been going to Dave's since I was 11 and it was still on Eagle Rock Blvd. Dave and Ghaz are just such excellent people. I truly can't recommend this business enough.

Dave's has popped up a few times in a few different locations but to my understanding this location is permanent. No matter the place he always makes a killer sandwich. I've had two different sandwiches so far let's get into it. Food: The grilled cheese is excellent, made with two different cheeses and buttered to perfection, this one is an easy 5/5. The famous tuna melt is phenomenal, not sure what they're putting in it to make it taste so delicious but this has me craving a sandwich weekly 5/5 The wait can be a little long, usually taking around 15-20 mins but no complaints here, good food takes time and the location is pretty new so I assume operations are still revving up. Looking forward to more sandwiches. I'll probably be back tomorrow :D

I'm excited for this place to fully blossom.. food looks amazing and real people running a small business

Once a fixture on Colorado Blvd in a small space in Eagle Rock, Dave has moved locations and no longer has regular hours for a sandwich and fruit smoothie stop. Focused on catering and pop-ups, you can find Dave's great food and updated availability on his IG. @daveschillingrillin

Rosemary turkey sandwich the best way to describe this sandwich was a work of love. As I pulled apart the finely cut sourdough bread, I was immediately greeted with the sight of generous amounts of cheese that pulled, separated and stretched nearly my entire arms length. In complete and utter awe at the sight. Then the smells hit me. Mayo and mustard mixed with grilled avacado and fresh tomato all coalescenced into one mouth watering scent. This entire experience was before the first bite. Diving into the rosemary turkey the first thing I noticed was the flake of the toasted bread. Perfect hit of natural softness and crunch from the warming process on the grill. Finally, the moment I was waiting for. The enjoyment of the fine cut, plentiful portion of the turkey breast. before I continue , I must add that I usually go for the pastrami. Chillin and grillin does a damn good pastrami sandwich and I have gotten both the surf and turf which is tuna and pastrami as well as the Ruben. I could go on about those as well but it would be a books worth of information. to the moment of walking in the restaurant, it was significantly later in the day, bout half hour before closing. I greet Dave we exchange hellos and he knows his guests so well! He immediately lets me know they are out of pastrami. A hilarious moment, I had not even looked at the menu yet, but that is the level of care and attention to detail he puts into his craft and the people he cares for. Now Back to the sandwich The avacado was warmed, fresh and soft, a great example of perfectly ripe. The cheese wrapped around the whole sandwich and the mustard and mayonnaise served as an accent to add moisture and flavors beyond belief. the vibe of the restaurant. It's a gallery with collections from different artists scattered along the walls of the restaurant. I'm assuming they are local eagle rockers who would not have otherwise gotten a space to showcase the work , here we are again with the uniqueness of chillin and grilling being with the charismatic and loving personality of Dave. The people behind the restaurant are the ones I come back for. Chillin and grilling brings other parts of the community into a singular area. Ask yourself, where else can I grab a bite, cola and smoothie while gallivanting the space and speaking with local artists about sociopolitical topics? Topics that inspire their work and drive creativity. All in all well deserved 5 stars.

The sandwiches were tasty - especially the tuna melt! I know they're still working out the kinks at their new location but it took 40 minutes to get our food. 3 sandwiches - all very simple orders. Look, I know sometimes a rush of phone orders comes in at once and it can slow things down, but no one communicated this to us. When I went in after half hour to ask where our sandwiches were, the woman at the counter (I think she might be co-owner?) was curt and defensive, and said she'd told us all it would be 20-25 minutes. (She absolutely didn't tell us that - not to mention, we'd already bypassed that timeline.). She did apologize - but it felt abrasive and insincere. I've worked in sales my whole life and there are these little moments where you can step back and assess a customer's happiness (or lack thereof) and do something about it. Offer an earnest apology with no defensiveness. Say, hey - so sorry for the delay. Can we offer you some chips or a drink on the house while you wait? Good communication and a little sweetness goes a LONG way. Had they been more gracious, we absolutely would have given them another shot - sorry to say, that won't be happening. I'd recommend calling your order in until they have a smoother system going.

They have a great hometown vibe and they've been around a while and they got their new location and it's great.

Delicious I'm very happy it's my second time to get it same flavor ........ and the guy to work there very polite

No sandwich can compare to a Dave's sandwich. He's got some kind of magic going on. My favorite is the Hot Hippy, and my husband loves Rosemary's Turkey. I'm so happy he has a permanent place again. Since the place just opened, the hours may vary.
