When Is Sandough Opening in Glendale?

Short answer: Sandough’s Glendale shop is planned for late November or early December 2026 at 126 S Brand Blvd, Glendale, CA 91204 — the former Mediterranean Delight space on Brand Boulevard. A soft-open or grand-open date has not been announced yet. The Burbank location is expected first (mid-November).

What’s opening

Sandough is the Melrose Avenue sandwich concept known for baking sandwiches on 48-hour fermented pizza dough. Owner Hakob Badalyan told What Now Los Angeles that the brand is expanding beyond its flagship at 7276 Melrose Ave with two new Southland shops: Burbank and Glendale.

Glendale Marketplace already lists the Brand Boulevard space as “Coming Soon,” with planned hours listed as daily 11:00 a.m.–8:00 p.m. Those hours are for after opening — confirm once the doors actually open.

Address and timing

  • Address: 126 S Brand Blvd, Glendale, CA 91204
  • Expected open: late November or early December 2026 (per owner comments to What Now LA, Sept. 29, 2026)
  • Former tenant: Mediterranean Delight
  • Sister location: 4007 W Riverside Dr, Burbank (mid-November target; former Smashed AF Burgers)
  • Flagship: 7276 Melrose Ave, Los Angeles

Openings slip. Treat “late November / early December” as the best public target as of late September 2026, not a locked calendar date. We’ll update this post when a firm soft-open or grand-open day is announced.

What to expect on the menu

What Now LA describes an Italian-inspired sandwich menu built on slow-fermented pizza dough, finished in the oven. Named items reported for the Melrose shop include The Parma (Prosciutto di Parma, stracciatella, heirloom tomato, wild arugula), Mortadella with parmigiano ricotta crema and pistachio, Funghi with roasted mushrooms and fontina, plus Chicken Parm, Meatball, Pastrami, Chicken Calabrese, and The Verde. Salads, sides, drinks, and sauces are also listed. The Melrose location offers dine-in, takeout, delivery, and catering — Glendale’s service mix may match once it opens, but confirm locally.

What it means for Brand Boulevard

126 S Brand sits in downtown Glendale’s main commercial strip, a short walk from shopping at The Americana at Brand and the Glendale Galleria. For visitors building a food day around Brand, this is another fast-casual stop to watch alongside the rest of our places to eat in Glendale guide.
