Foodie Bros Bako Visits Eastside Deli | Nearly 100 Years of L.A. Sandwich History

On this episode, Foodie Bros Bako heads into Los Angeles to visit Eastside Deli, one of the city’s oldest surviving Italian deli landmarks. Founded in 1929, this historic neighborhood institution began as a small Italian market serving the city’s old Little Italy community and has grown into a legendary sandwich destination known across Southern California. For generations, Eastside has been famous for oversized stacked sandwiches, house-made meats, and old-school recipes that have stayed true to their roots. The Angiuli family helped carry the deli’s legacy forward, preserving the authentic flavor and atmosphere that make this place feel like stepping into living Los Angeles history. From classic hot pastrami and roast beef sandwiches to the unmistakable old-world deli charm, Eastside Deli is more than just a meal — it is a taste of nearly a century of tradition, family pride, and authentic L.A. food culture. Foodie Bros Bako gives you the honest take, the flavor, and the story behind one of Los Angeles’ true deli icons.
