Stachowski's Market · Georgetown
Big, meat-heavy sandwiches in Georgetown, the 4 Meat Grinder is an obnoxiously huge Italian sub.
Sababa · Cleveland Park
plenty of standout Jerusalem-bagel and shakshuka sandwiches in the city, in Cleveland Park.
Caphe Banh Mi · Alexandria
Street-food-style Vietnamese sandwiches, the grilled-pork thịt nướng is the standout.
Call Your Mother Deli - Logan Circle · Park View
Known primarily as a bagel shop, but its Inside-Out Tuna Melt has become a signature in its own right: a buttered everything bagel flipped onto the griddle for a soft interior and crunchy exterior, packed with tuna, American and cheddar, and a generous swipe of mayo. A deli-and-bagel favorite across several neighborhoods.
Compliments Only · Dupont Circle
The Roast Beef Boi layers rare roast beef, crunchy lettuce, potato chips, provolone, and garlic aioli, served with a side of French onion dip for dunking. A shop known for finishing its subs with a mayonnaise gun, a bit of theater on a genuinely well-built sandwich.
