California Sandwiches

Love Italian sandwiches and I been to a few places but so far I am impressed with California Sandwiches and the prices are basically the same everywhere.

The place is great for giant burgers! I have been here multiple times for lunch. The place has some wicked size burgers.
I had their chicken burger and let me tell you I was not able to finish it! the way they get your pocket here is through the adding toppings which are around a $ 1 or so. The service is fast and the burgers are tasty.
For my fellow Muslims — I inquired about there halal status and they have a certificate only on their chicken burgers, other stuff is not halal.

The server was not very friendly, it felt like a inconvenience to serve me and she was very abrupt and no smile zone. To bad as the sandwiches are great:)

Headline: Not a «light» sandwich/​lunch.
I went here hoping for a light lunch as I figured, «it’s just a sandwich». Yeah, that didn’t pan out as the sandwiches are huge. The basic premise is:
1. Order your type of sandwich
2. Add toppings (of which they cost anywhere between $ 0.99 and $ 1.50 each), with the exception of onions and jalapeño peppers
3. Eat it
I got the veal sandwich which was 7.74 and added eggplant and onions. Total came to around $ 10.50 including taxes.
The sandwich is made to order, so it takes around 5 to 7 minutes to prepare, which is fine. As for the meat itself, the veal was very nicely breaded, crispy, but not hard and the sauce on it tasted so good. It’s a light tomato sauce and I don’t even like tomatoes that much, but it seemed to go very well with eggplant, veal and onions. The sandwich itself is large and will definitely fill up those with the biggest appetite.
My only pet peeve is that the girl at the counter seemed like she was in a daze. I asked her «is the sausage spicy?» and she answered in a muttered tone «I don’t think so??».
Verdict: Great hot sandwich place to take a breather while you are in Heartland.

What crappy service the young girl was like a zombie .
Not sure why They cant make the same sandwiches like Toronto.
They are cheap on the meat.
Mama should take a drive to all the location and slap them for not doing it right.
Thank God I drive often enough to the city to get a good sandwich.
California Sandwiches Claremont St. Toronto is the best of the best

After hearing a lot about how California Sandwiches is awesome, I decided to spend a Friday trying this place as I was coming home to Markham to Waterloo.
I ordered a veal sandwich with mushrooms and cheese. Surprisingly, it costed less than what was advertised on the official website… only costed $ 10.25 with everything added. My sandwich was ready in about 5 minutes (mind you, it was quite busy when I arrived).
The first thing I noticed was that the sandwich was HUGE! I guess they don’t call it California for nothing, since everything in America seems to come in large portions. It was so big I didn’t even finish it at the end. I found the veal to be quite good, but there was just too much tomato sauce for my liking. The bread also felt a little soggy, but also huge at the same time… which might have contributed to why the sandwich looked so big.
Overall the sandwich was good, and the quantity received does make the price of $ 10.25 somewhat worthwhile.
