Submariner — Restaurant in Los Angeles

LIve in the Del Rey area most of my life and remember this restaurant since I was a kid. Food is awesome as our club eats here at least once a week. Their famous BLTE (bacon, lettuce, tomato and egg) sub sandwich is outstanding, coupled with either wedge cut broasted (broiled then roasted) potatoes or regular fries; but IMHO their "diamond in the rough" is the pizza.

The Philly cheesesteak and Western bacon cheeseburger are my favorites, though the turkey sandwich is perfect for a cold option. Prices have risen over the years (as everywhere), but they’re still very reasonable for what you get. I always leave satisfied and wondering why I don’t come more often.
