Dinosaurs Sandwiches — Restaurant in Pacifica

The sandwiches are quite good and the people are friendly. Why only three stars? I'm rating the business as a whole and the environment is not customer friendly. Its been open for a long time but looks like they just opened two weeks ago with clutter all around. Ugly florescent lighting and uncomfortable seating. Look, it's a sandwich shop, I don't expect white table cloths or flowers on the tables. I don't even appreciate those things. However, just a little bit of effort would make it good enough to eat there instead of take away. In fact, I have in the past said to myself, "I could go for a Bahn Mi before I drive down to Mt View but I don't want to spend that much time there" so I stopped at 5 guys despite being in a Bahn Mi mood. The worst part about visiting for me is being forced to hear hip hop type music from the kitchen as I wait for my order. The kitchen workers might like it but as a customer, its says to me "We don't really want you to eat here." But, I'm a middle aged white guy, maybe I'm outside their demo. There are plenty of styles of music that I enjoy, but would never subject my customers to as they ate. All that said, damn good Bahn Mi sandwiches. Ill keep ordering...

Probably one of the very best sandwich shops in Pacifica. Great selection, consistently good quality and service. A little pricey for fast food ($9-12 per sandwich), but each sandwich is a meal, and the ingredients are super fresh. Sanitary prep table, too.

There's a big debate among locals about Bunny vs. Dinosaurs, and the comparison isn't really warranted. Dinosaurs is part of a larger local chain, and Bunny is a small family-owned business. Both places make great sandwiches. Bunny is great for the more traditional stuff, whereas Dinosaurs has more of a Californian "fusion" flare to their sandwiches.

I go to the place that strikes my fancy, and I will say that I can count on Dinosaurs to be open and stocked when they say they will be.

I highly recommend the meatball and shaking beef sandwiches. The chicken and shrimp spring rolls are also delicious and are not commonly found at your typical banh mi shop....

I generally like it here. Sometimes I just need a Vietnamese sub. The quality of the food is really great. They are always pretty accommodating on requests. The service is generally good, but if there are a few people ahead of you it can slow right down. I have definitely walked in in a rush, seen that people were in line and just walked out. The get good marks for being open and having consistent hours. Bunny's is another place in Pacifica that offers Vietnamese sandwiches, and they are closed almost half the time I go. They loose some marks in my book because a good Vietnamese sub should be delicious, fast and cheap. Their sandwiches are always delicious, sometimes fast, but a...
