Dave's Chillin N Grillin — Restaurant in Los Angeles

We had the displeasure of eating here on a recent trip to LA simply due to its proximity to the Gamble House. After finally finding it and ordering sandwiches from the vague menu, we were left to wait, and wait, and wait some more. The excessive delay was caused by what appeared to be the owner berating a young employee for the better part of 20 minutes. Seemingly unhumbled by operating a sandwich shop out of a closet at a local pool, the owner went on a relentless, gyrating and gesticulating scream-fest, leaving our sandwiches half-made on the counter 3 separate times, in a display more akin to the ramblings of a street prophet than managerial coaching. As the mortified guests stood uncomfortably in line, we all learned way too much information about a grievance that seemed centered around the employee arriving a few minutes late, and not showing adequate passion for peddling unremarkable sandwiches. This was uncomfortable, unprofessional, and I certainly wouldn't bring my kids here. I hope the employee quit; the incessantly-mentioned $26-per-hour pay is just not worth that kind of abuse...

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...

Too difficult to order a sandwich here. I asked how much their sandwiches are, as the menu doesn’t list any prices. The woman helping said they range from $9-$15. Great - happy to pay anywhere in that range. I asked how do I know which sandwich is which price? She said, “you tell me which one you want, and I’ll tell you how much it is.” Why is it so difficult to get this information? I want to know what each one costs, so I can make my best decision, and so I also know for future visits, but I literally would have had to ask about each one individually. I left as I was turned off by that...
