Pinocchio Restaurant

Always seen this growing up in the Valley, but first time trying this in 2025 on a Friday night around 7pm. Pastrami sandwiches are my favorite and go-to’s, but I asked the chef what he recommended, Pastrami or Roast Beef, he asked you like hot or cold? I said hot. He recommended the Pastrami (On Roll). After ordering it, the lady next to me said the Pastrami is really good here, great choice! I couldn’t wait to try it. The chef went to get the fresh, hot Pastrami in the kitchen in the back, and stuffed the roll with a huge amount of meat. Then he added a delicious seasoned tomatoes & onions mix, and asked if I wanted mustard on the bread, I said yes! everything on it please! For $12, it was great and filling. I love places that don’t skimp out on the amount of protein, and boy they stuffed that sandwich. When I bit it outside, since I got to-go, it was warm, juicy, messy, and a great sandwich overall! I highly recommend and will be coming back, great 1st impression! - LaynoProd

Monte Carlo combination sandwich is outstanding! The amount of flavor and meat makes this a filling diner. We get the greek salad and olives to make this an outstanding combo.

This place was cute! Half shop half restaurant. A lot bigger than you’d think. The sandwich was good but dry. Maybe more veggies would’ve helped but the salad was yummy. My cousin loves the veggie lasagna.
