The Carving Board Tarzana

This carving board location has gone downhill. Food quality has declined and the staff are pretty unfriendly and unhappy to be working here. They also do not accept cash as a form of payment and do not advertise that anywhere.

Great food! really slow service.

I love eating here and I always finding my self coming back. But they are really slow here.
I've waited 45 minutes just for an egg sandwich before. Everything is definitely made to order which is a good thing but when I see a line here i know it's gonna be a while.

Worst location ever! Rudest staff. They made me come back after not putting cheese on my sandwich and then they didn’t put it on again and were rude about it, last time I ever go there. What is this?!? And the fries are uncooked, it’s disgusting

I’ve had many Sandwiches at The Carving Board, and I encourage you to do the same! The sandwiches here are gourmet and fancier then your typical sandwich/burger restaurant.

I got my all time favorite “The Bentley”, with well seared and juicy filet mignon, blue cheese and grilled onion. Everything melds together beautifully between the soft Ciabatta bun, and generous helping of the secret weapon, bacon mayo. This meal comes with a free side of potato chips or side salad, but I opted for one of their premium sides and got the kale pasta salad. It was worth the extra cost.

This place has plenty of seating. Every time I’ve been it’s usually pretty quite, which I think has more to do with the location and parking situation.

This place is up there as one of my favorite go-to places in the Valley. The prices are reasonable for the quality you receive.

Definitely give it a try!

I ordered a pickup for lunch over the phone. The experience was easy and friendly from the phone call (their online ordering seems to be down at the moment). All of the staff was very nice, and the person I believe to be the chef called me by my name when letting me know my order would be a bit longer.

We got the Health Nut sandwich and the Carving Salad. I think both were great, but I was pleasantly surprised by the Health Nut. Usually when I get a vegan sandwich, I feel that it's just an item on the menu to cater to that one weird vegan friend in the group. But the cashews, mushrooms, and pickled vegetable did a really good job of balancing the flavor. All in all, a better vegan sandwich than I can find most places. If I were to critique, I would suggest changing the grated carrots to something a little thinner like a ribbon to avoid very carrot-y bites. But I didn't feel that the carrots detracted from the overall enjoyment of the sandwich.

Fresh potato chips were included with my sandwich, but they don't get a picture because they made too good of a snack for the drive home!

This place use to be amazing! Something happened probably with management or shortage in staff. Bottom line, the quality of this place dropped to minimum. If you use food delivery, don't order anything during launch time (12-2 pm). B/c they are in rush, the food comes out poorly and they mess up orders (like requesting no meat in a sandwich and it comes with a massive layer of bacon). Also, don't bother calling them during that time (to complain or to order) - they litterly hang up the phone on you. Very unfortunate outcome to once-upon-a-time great place.

Ordered the Bentley which is a filet mignon, bacon mayo, blue cheese, grilled onion and spinach on a ciabatta bread sandwich. Staff is really polite and attentive. Side orders are freshly made in the picture I got freshly made chips and they had for a squeezed lemonade.
