La Cañada Imports - La Cañada Flintridge, California

This Gem is freaking amazing! Where do I begin the menu honestly they have something for everyone. The subs are spectacular, well made, and that bread is unreal. The pizza was definitely hitting the spot. The dough had great chew to it but also crisp around the edges. It was what pizza should be the cheesiest and the grease dripping off the pepperoni. I would never go back to a chain to buy either. Will be sticking with this restaurant for a very long time. 🤘🍕🥪

Came in for lunch with my brother, had been wanting to try this place for a while. The sandwich was very good and the pizza was just okay but all in all - for the price - everything is fine. The service is very bad, whoever the young woman is that's taking orders has absolutely no personality or customer service skills. No greeting (and of course no thank you), rushed us to order our food and then when everything was ready just left it sitting on the counter while we were outside waiting to eat. We asked her about it and she just kind of laughed with the other employees as if we were stupid for expecting them to let us know our order was ready. I am a small business owner and if someone like this worked for me I would do my best to train them the right way or definitely let them go. Can't say I would ever eat here again considering the other options in the area, but I'm glad I checked it off my list either way.

I had to knock down some stars the restaurant has started getting dirty in the sense of the overall cleansliness is declining. One of the younger guys making a pizza with no gloves went from playing with his hair and running his hands thru his hair to then grabbing the cheese after putting the sauce to serve the pizza not what you expect with your pizza. Also customer service isn't the best either but that's to be expected with the times

Food is solid especially for los Angeles with very little to complain about especially for the price, servings are plenty Calzone really good, just at the cost of questionable food handling and environment.

Delicious Italian types of dishes. Interior is nice, clean. Also has shaded patio seating. Doesn't take long to get the food. Of course it depends on the size of the order but even the larger orders I have gotten in the past haven't taken too long. Ive been going to La Canada Imports for over a decade now and still has the BEST PIZZA, CANT BEAT IT!!!

First time today at 1pm ish. Hot roast beef and pastrami both 12 inch. Lady at counter was quick and knew what she was doing. Reminded me of my friend from Brooklyn. They get your order rolling fast. She could be misunderstood but she actually cared about my order. Both sandwiches we tried were on par and perfect flavor. And not too messy. We would definitely return to try other menu items.

I grew up in La Cañada. They used to have really good food here. The last time I went, excited for a nostalgic meal while stopping in town from out of state, I received the most tasteless, overcooked, dry chicken "tenders." I use quotation marks because they were weird, breaded filets like you'd put on a sandwich, cut in half and overcooked.

I ended up only eating a couple bites and throwing the rest away, they were that bad. Service was just okay, employees were kind enough. Prices have gotten very high, like with everything, it's just a shame the quality has gone down.

It's also really a shame that Georgee's went out of business, they always had the better food in La Cañada. I don't think I'll be back to imports on my next visit through LC.

Came in for lunch today with my brother and was pretty excited to try this place. Ordered a sandwich which was good, and also ordered a pizza which was a little greasy, but pretty ok I guess.

The service, however, was really bad. The woman who took our order is clearly lacking customer service training or just doesn’t want to be, and shouldn’t be, in the service industry. I hate when you order something and the response is “anything else?” Yes, in addition to the sandwich we would also like to order a large pizza. “Anything else?” yes, and I’d like to order a drink, “anything else.?” Jesus!! How about what else can I get for you or how about you make a recommendation! After waiting outside for 20mins I walked in and asked about the pizza and she pointed to it on the counter. I asked why she didn’t come bring it to us or let us know it was ready and her response was she yelled a few times. What!? We were literally sitting right outside and she could have even knocked on the window at the very least. SMH

There is a Help Wanted sign in the front window and hopefully, if the owner is smart, this is to replace her. I guess I’ll never know because I don’t need to ever go back.
