You don’t have to overcomplicate lunch.
A classic Gene’s Salami Grinder with provolone, lettuce, tomato and olive oil on one of our fresh-baked rolls.
Throw some fries on the side and you’re in business.
Come grab one at 1012 E Huntington Dr in Duarte.

Opening day in Duarte. April 18, 2026.
This photo says a lot about Gene’s.
Pat on the left has been a friend of the family for nearly 20 years and has had his fingerprints all over Gene’s. Our menu, branding, designs and so much of what you see around the shop came from him helping bring Gene’s to life visually.
And George on the right needs no introduction. Our store manager, our floor general, and a huge part of Gene’s for more than 25 years. Simply put, this move doesn’t happen without him.
After 49 years on Myrtle, packing up Gene’s, moving everything to Duarte and starting a new chapter took a lot of people behind the scenes.
These are two of them.
Opening day vibes. Good people, big smiles, and Gene’s back on Huntington Drive. ❤️

🚨 CHICKEN EMERGENCY 🚨
Cancel whatever you were pretending to do… you need a chicken sandwich.
Crispy chicken, fresh ingredients, and made the Gene’s way. 🐔
Is it Tuesday? Is it Wednesday? Honestly… who cares?
Every day is a good day for chicken.

Who remembers the Huntington Drive days? 👀
Same grinders. Same family. A whole lot of memories in between.
If you ate at Gene’s back then, tell us what year you started coming. We want to see who’s been here the longest.

Payday and Friday?
Sounds like a pretty good excuse to skip the drive-thru.
Our Friday Sausage Grinder is stacked on the same fresh-baked bread we've been making from scratch for generations.
❌ No shortcuts.
❌ No frozen rolls.
Just quality ingredients done the Gene's way.
Available today only. We'll see you at lunch.

Respectfully...
Your favorite chicken sandwich chain is really hoping you scroll past this.
You can taste the difference.
Fresh baked bread. Every. Single. Day.
And while most chicken sandwich places are celebrating one patty...
Our small comes with 1½.
Our large comes with 2½.
Apparently we misunderstood the assignment.
Available Tuesday & Wednesday only.

You might think you've had great pastrami. Then you try Gene's and realize you've been grading on a curve.
Fresh baked bread. Hand-sliced pastrami. No shortcuts. Just the sandwich that's been raising the bar for over 70 years.
