Phillipe’s: No Frills French Dip

Mmm… I can still taste the juicy, tender roast beef of Phillipe’s French Dip sandwiches.

I know Phillipe’s makes it on to every list of “LA Must Eats,” so it’s no surprise to see it among my faves, but it really is delicious!

I ordered a “double dipped” beef french dip sandwich with coleslaw and potato salad.  The au jus soaked bun still retained some crunch and the beef is so tender that it melts in your mouth.  The deli salads were equally as delicious and a perfect cooler after the punch of their signature mustard (available for purchase). I squirted a little on each side of the bun and within 3 bites, I felt like fire was coming out of my nose. If you’re like me, that burn is a good thing.

The sandwiches weren’t abnormally huge or dressed up fancy, but that’s what’s so great about Phillipe’s. Simply done, expertly prepared and finger lickin’ good! I walked out a Happy Camper.

$10 will get you a sandwich, drink and a side or two.
