    The food was pretty good but we were seated for a minute before a man came over and asked for money, I said no. Then maybe 2 minutes later a homeless woman came over and asked for money, before I knew what was happening she was stuffing my sons food in her mouth. I yelled at her "No what are you doing" and she apologized I gave her my son's food and told her to leave and she left after she licked some whipped cream off the table. It was not very safe or clean. No one from the restaurant cared that homeless people were working the room asking for money, eating peoples food, and licking the tables.

    It is history all right, but common the sandwiches are not to die for. Compare to other sandwiches is o.k. and fine. I will go back to eat out there maybe in 1 year just to check it out.

    I've been going to Philippe's for years and it never dissapoints!! The sandwiches are nothing short of amazing! This place is great to go to before a Dodgers game. The lure has to rest with the mustard. If you are going, soak your sandwich in their mustard!! Simply the best!!
