GENERAL INFORMATION
Philippe the Original is known for its delicious french dip sandwiches and other deli fare. The restaurant has been in business for over 110 years, opening its doors in 1908.
Insider Tip
Order the french dip, which was originally created by accident! In 1918, the sliced french roll was accidentally dropped into the roasting pan, which was filled with hot juices from the oven.
It’s only a 107-year-old establishment and oh, the birthplace of the French dip sandwich. Like THAT French dip sandwich. The one you dream about at night.

Billed as "the originator of the French dip", this 1908-vintage Chinatown "landmark" still turns out "must-try" sandwiches hailed as "national treasures".
