Press picks, until locals rank their own Top 5s. Sourced from the local food press. As seen in The Infatuation and Westword. Updated July 2026.
Leven Deli Co. · Capitol Hill
A reuben built on 12-day aged pastrami and tart mustard on housemade rye, in Capitol Hill.
The Porchetta House · Capitol Hill
A Capitol Hill porchetta specialist, serving crisp, herby roast pork piled into a roll.
Vinh Xuong Bakery · Athmar Park
Banh mi on crackly baguettes from a longtime Vietnamese bakery, a reliable stop for the sandwich.
Lou's Italian Specialties · Five Points
An East Coast-style Italian deli in Five Points known for the Louie and a hot porchetta with broccoli rabe. Cured meats and sturdy bread do the heavy lifting in a no-nonsense counter operation on Downing Street, where the sandwich list stays short and the focus stays on quality.
Duke’s Good Sandwiches & Burgers · Five Points
A New-York-inspired sandwich shop in a Five Points alley, known for a Denver-style chopped cheese, black Angus beef chopped with white cheddar on a hoagie roll with butter and mayo. Small, focused, and built around that one signature, it keeps the menu tight and the line moving.
