Rinaldi's

Gone to this many times. Great food. Plenty of seating outside and in. What's nice is when you order they know your name from a CC purchase. This is helpful. Don't have to give them my name. It's automatic.

Great little gem to escape the hotel foods around for a quick breakfast, lunch or dinner. The avocado toast and waffle made for a tasty breakfast. Definitely recommended.

Great, convenient breakfast spot for those staying at the LAX hotels. Huge lunch menu but felt we had more than enough choices for breakfast. Good prep, solid dishes

As New Yorkers visiting LA, finding this place reminded us of our bodegas of home and we loved it. Great food along with quick and kindly service. A+ spot to grab a light and healthier meal! We went every day for breakfast.

We came to eat here after checking into our hotel, and I’m so glad we chose this place! The roast beef sandwich I had was delicious! My husband enjoyed the rice bowl he got, as well as the smoothie. We even ordered extra subs to bring on the plane with us!

Delicious food, great athmosphere and good service. I got the small reuben and it was the perfect size for me. I recommend if you are staying around the Airport Hotels area.

Excellent breakfast croissant and mango smoothie! Very good quality food. Loved the lemon aioli on the bagel. Acceptable price, refreshing since many places near hotels increase prices but not quality.

I ordered a 1/2 sandwich + 1/2 salad + soup combo. Fresh ingredients and all 3 were very tasty. Flavorful smoothie as well.

Diner with good breakfast and lunch offerings. Service was fast and friendly. Food was tasty.

I’ve been going to Rinaldi’s for years and it never disappoints! I like their sandwiches. The place has a classic, cozy Italian restaurant vibe, and the staff are always so friendly. Parking can be a bit tricky in this area, but it's definitely worth the effort.

How lucky is it to be able to walk away from an international airport & enjoy this place! The philly, excellent

Beautiful food and amazing staff. Our son had a little accident with a hot liquid and they were brilliant helping, over with ice and aloe Vera gel and even an ice lolly for him. So polite and lovely thank you!

Great sandwich! I had the California Dee lite. It was delicious and fresh. My hotel is very close by so I walked there. Nice location and the service was very nice. I was greeted when I walked in and my sandwich was made with love while I admired the atmosphere.

Wow. Nice little place down the street from our hotel. Ordered at counter and asked for my name. Found a perfect seat outside and the sandwiches were ready in no time! Turkey was absolutely delicious with avocado nice and fresh. But the show stopper was the hit pastrami! Presented like a club sandwich with plenty of meat and just the right amount of kraut. They used mustard instead of thousand island and it worked perfectly. Had to get a box for leftovers they were so big. Hit this place up if you’re in the area. #stevensleavin

This place is sponsored by Boarshead and AMAZING!!!!! I am still obsessed with their Ruben sandwich. Espresso, breakfast and desserts should not be slept on. Everyone working were so nice. I miss this place so much. 😢

Ordered the large **Rinaldi’s** Philly with extra cheese, add jalapeños. By far one of the best Philly sandwiches I’ve had in recent memory.

If you are a staying at nearby hotel this is the place you wanna go and try. Visited around 5:00 on a Tuesday and the place was empty. Ordered a hot sandwich (Rinaldi’s Philly Cheesesteak). Came out hot and ready in no time. The sandwich was pretty tasty. Not a huge fan of the price. After tip it was almost 20 bucks. Seems high for just a sandwich with no chips or drink but nevertheless tapped the card. After all it’s all per diem money anyway. I’d go back and try some of their cold sandwiches or breakfast items.

Stayed at a nearby hotel that had a very expensive breakfast (or at least more than I wanted to pay). Walked over to Rinaldi's. Good coffee, good food. I got the salmon and lox. Bagel was toasted perfectly. Husband got the chris club sandwich. It was so large we thought we would take it back to the hotel (he ate the whole thing though it was so good).

The Mog Champ sends his regards. A nice cafe close by to the Hyatt hotel next door. They're open fairly early for breakfast so that's what we had. We both ordered a 6 inch sandwich which was still generously portioned. Service was friendly and the place is quite spacious on the inside. The menu also has a lot of variety. Thanks for the breakfast! Mogliest Regards, Your Mog Champ

Excellent sandwich and healthy options. Great prices, great service, filtered water.

I got the chorizo breakfast burrito and it was really delicious. This place is great for a quick bite after landing at LAX—just a short walk from the airport. It's a perfect spot to settle in before heading to your destination. Also, their sandwiches are really good too.

Top rated for a reason! Stayed in a hotel nearby, and I’m so glad to find this breakfast spot! Opens early, making it wonderful for jet laggers like me. Ordered a simple avocado toast, and it’s definitely the best I’ve had. Not pretentious and oh-so-delicious, I can eat this everyday! Definitely highly recommended!

Come here if you are craving a really yummy sandwich! The staff is very friendly, and the menu has a ton of options for sandwiches. The sandwiches are big and can easily fill a grown man’s belly. You can order in store, or online. This place has good seating, and is nice if you want a quick bite, or like me, staying at the hotel and wanting something hot and delicious. I will be back here!

Was staying at hotel before a flight so went here to grab an early dinner. Did a Caesar salad with chicken. Very basic, but exactly what you expect. Much less expensive than same thing at nearby hotel. Good dressing. Staff was friendly. The LAX sign is a block away.

Great place for a quick lunch. Lots to choose from. We had sandwiches on two occasions just now and they were fantastic. We ordered the small and that was huge! Staff are efficient too.

Ordered the Air Force Lou 10" and it's one of the best damn sandwiches I've ever eaten. 🤤🤤🤤 Glad to have found on Google Maps while staying at Hyatt next door. So freaking good!

I walked past at first, then came back, and man, am I glad I did. Wow! They were busy. Both indoor and outdoor seating is available and both were quite full. A very large line, but that was just those waiting for their order. I'm going to be honest, I thought the wait would be astounding but it took less than 15mins from ordering to being handed my bag. I got a large Rueben sandwich. They also come in regular, getting a large may have been a mistake. It's huge. I also ordered a double decker, they let you choose. Single or double. Curses free will. I also got a bag of peppercinis, was expecting a smaller bag, but again that didn't happen. I also got a caramel milkshake which was absolutely phenomenal. Finished it minutes it was so good. Would definitely recommend this as a takeout or dine in spot. Great food.

12/18/2025 - A LAX layover discovery that became a go-to spot since July 2024! Their fantastic Tomato Basil Soup and what I swear is America's Best Cobb Salad. The lady at the counter is a true gem – incredibly kind, helpful, and brings such warm/inviting energy, easily one of the best fast-food employees ever. The 5 stars are for her! However, the kitchen's carelessness is frustrating, despite the food itself being fresh and consistently good; orders are frequently incomplete (missing soup, bread, even dressing like the ranch on my Cobb salad on 12/18!), I better start paying attention because pretty soon they might forget to put chicken in Cobb salad, or they forget avocado, or grape tomato, or cucumber, etc; etc. Hoping they can tighten up kitchen accuracy to match their great front-of-house and quality ingredients! Google might not agreed with that.

Amazing sandwich place. I walked from the airport (rather than go to the ride share line), and it was totally worth it. Great sandwiches at a good price. The pastrami was very good, but Fatboy was the star. Do yourself a favor and come here instead of settling for airport food. Once you’re done, picking up a ride-share is trivial.

Worthe the short walk from the hotel. Excellent Philly cheesesteak and sombrero salad. Friendly service. Oh - and killer blues music. Just perfect. Funky local good, not fancy.

We stopped here before and after our cruise. The food was delightful and the coffee was great. When I came back after the cruise, Carlos remembered my name from the previous week. 🙌🏼🤩 If I lived here I would be a regular for sure. Thanks for the great experience!

Great little sandwich shop! Even the "small" is huge. Waffle fries were a little spicy (yum)! Great food, good service, close to several hotels near the airport.

Solid Deli lunch experience. Sandwiches were big and well made. Would have liked a little more condiments but that's minor and will just ask for heavy next visit. Definitely recommend

We recommend this place! We visited this place two times. First time we were surprised by the very good tasted sandwitch called Godfather. Second time we ordered a beef wrap which also was grate! The taste of the beverages (Coke, Fanta, Dr. Peppe etc.) was at it should be as they seems were not mixed with water that have too much teast of chlorine. However the amount of beef in the wrap expected to be more and warmer plus that the price for a wrap was bit more than usual. For these three reasons we give 4 stars. Here are some pictures from our visit.

Went for “brunch”. The lady at the front counter was very helpful. I got the Fat Boy at her suggestion and it was amazing; pretty much as good as they come. Just the right amount of meaty and gooey and the bread was soft and fresh with a nice crispy/flaky crust. Good temperature and lots of melted cheese and marinara sauce. I also got a banana milkshake. It was surprisingly disappointing. It was a little watery and had a slight bitter taste. And it was served in a clear plastic cup-always a poor presentation for a milkshake.

Great place near the LAX airport to grab a quick bite, they have sandwiches, smoothies, pizzas, sides and some premade cakes. Everything is freshly made, I've been eating here for years. It's definitely a go to place for people who work at LAX. They've got a pretty tasty Reuben, I usually get it with sauerkraut and 1000 island dressing.

Nice deli and great food! Salad was tasty and the sandwich was amazing. Fast service and no wait.

As most hotels do not serve lunch any more, the concierge suggested this place a few blocks away. The place looked promising as a busy italian deli. I ordered a Ruben, I was told they were out of Saurekraut but still suggested it! I wish I had picked something else! With no Saurekraut and not enough Russian dressing the sandwich was really dry! I could not taste the Swiss cheese either. The only salvation was the use of Boars Head corned beef which is one of the better commercial brands. In spite of it all I will try the place again, because I want to believe they are better than this.

Food is always good and employees are mostly great. However. Walked all the way over from airport for dinner because website and the window say they close at 7. Big blue numbers and letter on the front door. Walked in at 630 and were told they close at 6. So beware if you see online and the window, they're wrong

Do you remember before Covid when employees didn’t sleep out in the open, cashiers watching videos on their phone and people actually worked. Most of the tables weren’t clean and the chairs were disheveled. Kind of gives an unsettling feeling as to the quality of the food which I felt was average.
