You probably need to mention that both Philippe's and Cole's claim to have invented the French dip sandwich (see French dip sandwich). gK ¿? 08:32, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Ad tag not needed

edit

This article is not written like an ad especially if you're not familiar with the restaurant. This article is similar to the Brown Derby in that they were/are classic Southern Cal/L.A. restaurants. Recommend removal in one week if not justified. ----moreno oso (talk) 03:19, 1 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

It has been two weeks, so I pulled the tag. I could not find one sentence that read like an advertisement, as opposed to a piece about a local favorite spot, although I did pull the unencyclopedic term, "yummy". The article draws upon third-party sources, albeit mostly local ones, and reflects their content. I haven't seen it recently, but Sandwiches That You Will Like (not local or mentioned) gave them comparable treatment. The last photo may be excessive.Novangelis (talk) 20:24, 15 July 2010 (UTC)Reply
