Deli sliced pot roast, melted Swiss cheese, and Ortega chile on grilled garlic cheese sourdough bread, with au jus served on the side. Grilled onions available on request.

The Sourdough Melt is what happens when a French dip and a grilled cheese have a very good day. Slow cooked pot roast gets piled onto garlic cheese sourdough with melted Swiss and a mild Ortega chile that adds flavor without real heat, then the whole sandwich is grilled until the bread crisps.

Dunk it in the warm au jus on the side and you will understand why this has been a lunchtime staple at California Grill & Bar in Whittier for years. Add grilled onions if that is your style. Served with your choice of side, available daily for dine in, pickup, and delivery.

Our burgers and sandwiches come with your choice of French fries, sweet potato fries or fruit, and you can upgrade to onion rings or fried zucchini for $2.50. Burgers start with a premium beef patty, with turkey and plant-based options too, and many sandwiches are built on our toasted garlic cheese sourdough. Want it your way? Add bacon, avocado or cheese, or ask for a lettuce wrap.
