"Eagle Rock Italian Bakery has that no-nonsense Italian attitude that gets you in and out - most times not so quickly, but we let that easily slide - with cookies, cakes, bread and incredible sandwiches for a price that strays far below the LA norm. Pick a number and choose your selects while you wait, but the cannoli are a unanimous favorite. We chose a variety of desserts to fit in a cake box for a deal at $19. You’ll find Italian pantry items like olive oil, San Marzano tomatoes and pasta so you can also do a little shopping before your number’s up." - Hype Type Studio & Steph Ashmore
"Open since 1949, Eagle Rock Italian Bakery & Deli is a Northeast LA landmark where you can stop by for fresh-baked bread, imported giardiniera, and other Italian goods. But if you arrive at this to-go only spot hungry, go for the Italian combo sandwich. Stacked with a variety of cured meats and cheese, lettuce, and tomato, this sub will easily keep you full until dinner—even if you get the small $10.50 version. Whatever you do, don’t walk out the door without a box of crunchy, tart cannolis." - brant cox, garrett snyder
"Open since 1949, Eagle Rock Italian Bakery & Deli is a neighborhood landmark where you can pick up fresh bread and goods like imported giardiniera. And if you arrive at this to-go-only spot hungry, make sure to grab one of the Italian combo sandwiches, too. This sub’s mattress of cured meats and cheese will easily keep you full until dinner, but whatever you do, don’t walk out the door without a box of cannolis." - brant cox, sylvio martins

"This 75-year-old classic Italian deli in Eagle Rock turns out some excellent sandwiches, including a fantastic Italian combo made on crusty bread. There are various options to customize and regulars know to double the meat and add on a muffuletta-esque olive spread to every sandwich." - Eater Staff
