Enough discussion about the Los Angeles real estate market! Who really has the best roast beef sandwich in Los Angeles?

Phillipe's  vs. Cole's  

Phillipe's is located one block from Union Station, there are long lines and sawdust on the floor. But their roast beef sandwich is delicious. Their sandwich bread is dipped in the au jus and the bread is incredibly soft.  Phillipe's offers free and convenient parking.

Cole's is sited in a trendier Los Angeles neighborhood; seating is in the bar or in comfortable booths or tables. Their roast beef is excellent but the au jus soaked bread from Phillipe's is missing here. Cole's offers full bar service; paid parking is ½ block away.
