Philippe The Original is a solid stop. We took the family downtown LA on the train, and it is a short walk from LA Union Station. The Beef French Dip sandwich was good, and the fresh Frisco bread was amazing. I really liked the double meat pastrami sandwich, big enough to share. Coffee was really good and only 46 cents. Big lunch room, easy to find seats. Line moves fast. Classic place with old school vibe and fair prices for DTLA.

Philippe's, what can you say about a classic dipped beef sandwich? It's the atmosphere, the delicious sides, I really like the pickled beets, and I prefer the pork sandwich. Classic potato salad is always good, no matter what sandwich you order. Try the mustard with your sandwich, it's what other mustard want to be when they grow up. You can't go wrong with a good dipped sandwich.

I went late at night so there was not many people there. It was a good sandwhich but not best french dip i ever had. Thats only thin i oredered but i like the vibe and friendly staff. I could have used a bit more flavor on the beef but ill be back to try iut other items. Ole school diner feel and im sure it gets crowded during the day.

Honestly , this was such a cute place. Old school and very simple. This is one of those regular spots to get inexpensive food. I actually just got the pb&j when I went but a few of my group got the dipper and they thought it was great. I’d recommend going here just for the old school vibes !

Pro Tip ⚠️: Try the beef with cheddar—but go easy on the signature mustard, it’s hot (in the best way). Also, free parking is a win! When I Visited: We stopped by Philippe’s before a Dodgers game, based on a solid rec from a stadium employee. Food/Drink Details 🥪: This place is a classic American diner—simple, tasty, and affordable. I had the French dipped beef with cheddar and it was on point. Ingredients were fresh, flavors hit just right. For dessert, the cheesecake was old-school and delicious. Service 🤝: Friendly and fast. Perfect for grabbing a bite before the game. Atmosphere/Decor 🍽️: Retro diner vibes with a timeless feel. There’s just one TV if you’re hoping to catch the game, but it did the job. Overall Experience ⭐: Philippe’s is a hidden gem just 10 minutes from Dodger Stadium, with two free parking lots and that no-frills, good-eats energy. Great spot for a pre-game bite or a casual meal with flavor and history.
