1. California Sandwiches – Veal Sandwich
Sloppy. Delicious. This family run restaurant certainly isn’t cheap (especially if you elect for all the gourmet toppings), but that hasn’t stopped me from ordering at least one veal sandwich a week since I started working. The toppings are incredible, and you’ll never leave feeling hungry.
2a. Black Camel – Beef Brisket / Pulled Pork
2b. The Stockyards – Pulled Pork / Beef Brisket
Honestly, you can’t go wrong with either. For whatever reason, I tend to order the beef brisket at Black Camel and the Pulled Pork at Stockyards, but you can’t really go wrong with either at either place. Just hit up the place that is more convenient for where you are. The beef brisket is probably the “better” sandwich, but the pulled pork is definitely my favorite.
3. The Fish Store & Sandwiches
Fresh fish sandwiches for those days when you need a break from the heavy sandwiches listed above.
4. The Sandwich Box*
A build you own sandwich joint that starts with great breads and unique spreads. Quite a few options for fans of every sandwich.
*I wanted to give the fourth spot to Petite Thuet’s lobster salad sandwich on pretzel bread, but after not serving it for an entire year, who knows when it will re-appear on the menu.
Honorable Mentions: Petite Thuet, Caplansky, Hey Meatball, and Reggie’s.
