The best sandwich shop in every state, according to Yelp
August 16, 20240
What to order: Cuban sandwich
What customers say: “I think they do a good job with what they serve, what more can you ask for? We ordered a Classic Cuban Sandwich and a Hot Cuban Tamales. Both were fresh and hot when we got it. The sandwich bread was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, so how a good sandwich should be. The Cuban tamales are not served with sauce like Mexican tamales, but it’s very flavorful on its own and not dry at all. I would definitely recommend you trying it if you haven’t before,” wrote Yelp user Virginia H.
What customers say: “Great sandwiches, nice to find good Italian meats in the desert. Had the Tony, tasted just like out east,” wrote Yelp user Nathan P.

What customers say: “The roast beef sandwich was the best one my wife ever had. That is saying a lot as she gets roast beef everywhere. I had the tuna sandwich with arugula and Swiss — it was also fantastic,” wrote Yelp user Sergio P.

What customers say: “My go-to all the time is the Vietnamese sandwich. The bread hit the spot! Crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Packed with pork, Vietnamese sausages, and lots of veggies. It’s super juicy and don’t forget to add the spicy sauce to add that kick of spiciness,” wrote Yelp user Pamela P.
What customers say: “I ordered the spicy soppressata sandwich for lunch. The ingredients were fresh and I loved the bite of spiciness followed by the creaminess of the ricotta spread. The flavors really melded well,” wrote Yelp user Samuel A.
What customers say: “I got the crab rangoon sandwich, let’s start with the chicken itself. The breading is tasty, the chicken is juicy. It’s good all on its own. Then you add the extras. A lovely cream cheese spread, a wonderful sweet chili sauce with wonton strips and lettuce. It’s a surprise from the first bite and a wonderful one. One of the best chicken sandwiches in town,” wrote Yelp user Eric C.

What customers say: “A MUST TRY in Lincoln! There are so many options and combinations to try to fit your cravings.

You have to get a boba tea and try the green waffle,” wrote Yelp user Annie S.

What customers say: “Immediately after walking into the sandwich shop I was met with the most Italian ‘Hey how you doing’ I’ve ever heard. After recommendations from the owners I decided to get the Italian Stallion sub and it was the greatest Italian sub I’ve ever had.

There’s bar style seating, a couple high tables, a couple low tables, and a couch to relax and enjoy your food. There’s a variety of hot & cold caffeinated beverages to choose from and freshly made hot foods. Tried the ham, egg, & cheese breakfast sandwich and it was soooooo good. There’s some kind of garlic aioli in there that tastes homemade and is truly chefs kiss. The place is operated by one person who does it all – he’s the chef and the barista, very friendly guy. Would definitely come back here the next time I’m in Seattle,” wrote Yelp user Helen L.
