Now this is how you make a sandwich! There's such a thrill in finding incredible local eats. I'm…read morenot usually a big sandwich person, but a good foodie friend of mine said they heard the hype about Scozzafava's so I went along. No regrets. If you didn't know about this spot, you might easily pass by without a second glance. Scozzafava's serves up authentic, classic Italian sandwiches that just slap. They use a soft sesame seed bun, which probably is the most unique part of the sandwich. For their marinara sandwiches, I wish they used a thicker bun to better absorb all the sauce. The sesame bun didn't keep its integrity, sadly. The meatball marinara was glorious! Slightly spicy, super moist meatballs, slightly sweet marinara, and perfectly paired with bitterness of the rapini. Don't forget the cheese pull! We also grabbed the classic Italian deli, which was scrumptious and very filling. You can't go wrong with either option, in my opinion.

The food experience that is Calgary continues. My brother loves this place so we decided to go here…read moresince it was close by. He says that this might be the best sandwich place in the city. We came to the store to order. and you know the service is top notch. The owner is very friendly and there is a warm ambiance about the place. On to the food, My brother order a chicken parm subs and say his sub was excellent as always. I ended up getting two subs. One was the meatball sub which was exceptional. The meatballs were well seasoned and were larger than my mom made when she was alive. the buns were toasted to perfection crunchy but not burnt. They had just enough sauce and cheese to compliment the sub but not overpower it . i also got a turkey pesto sub which had a lot of meat and cheese. This was very good and if i come back to Calgary i will definitely come back.

Found this place on Yelp when I was really in the mood for a good sandwich. I went with the Alberta…read moreBeef and it absolutely hit the spot. The beef was super tender and flavorful, and whatever they slow cook it in really works. The only tricky part was actually finding the entrance. It took me a minute walking around the block before realizing where it was. Once I got inside though, everything was smooth. It is a little on the pricier side for a fast casual sandwich, but after tasting it I understood why the reviews are so strong. Definitely worth trying, and I would absolutely order it again

Ordered the meatball sandwich, Alberta BBQ beef, and tomato soup. Everything was surprisingly…read moredelicious! When looking at pictures, I thought the bread would be hard but it was actually so soft. The tomato soup tasted like it was homemade and tasted really well together with the meatball sub.

This is no longer a Vietnamese sub shop. On the phone, they say they still sell subs, but it's now…read morea mediocre pho restaurant. We called to verify that they sold sandwiches. They said yes. We ordered and then drove to pick up. My wife said she was there to pick up the sandwiches and they gave her the Vietnamese coffee she ordered, but said "no" when she asked if the sandwiches were ready. She kept checking in while waiting 40 minutes until they clarified they had made soup because they don't sell sandwiches anymore. I called after to ask if they sold sandwiches and verified the address, thinking maybe my wife called somewhere else. They confirmed the address and that they sell sandwiches. It's the same location, same number, but different sign. Different menu. If you want average pho, this place is okay. If you want sandwiches, you'll be sorely disappointed.

There bubble tea isn't great but it's the sandwich that counts! There is this great herbal drink for only $2.00 healthy I think yes. Everything there is listed for a fair price!

What a great find!…read more We enjoyed the beet salad 10/10, beet chips 7/10, the ranch burger 8/10 , the spicy mushroom mozza burger 10/10, and the Mr. chicken panino 10/10! There is an abundant selection of beverages too. Everything was delicious and I would order them again! The service was prompt, kind and the manager made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our meal.

What a lovely sweet find along 10 Ave! Was in the area for medical travel and found this burger…read morespot across from MEC. The ranch burger and milkshake would of been more than enough for me (as that was a very hefty burger!) but also tried their smash browns (big potato chunks crisped up and super delicious enough to take home the remainder). I really liked the layout and lighting in the restaurant but as an added bonus, there is also a patio out back (I think you still need to go inside to order at the counter though) and free 3 hr parking for those eating there. I didn't realize about the parking until after I was done my appointment (that would of saved me from struggling with paying for parking on an old iphone that doesn't like indigo QR links...). So now I know for next trip to Calgary this is the spot to stop. Also, just an extra nod to the the two working (I believe they both were owners). Super friendly, will chat or leave you to enjoy your meal and really went the extra step with bringing out the good hot sauce and ketchup even before the meal was ready.

My friends were craving banh mi so we decided to try out Saigon Deli. It's located next door to Pho…read moreRang Dong Restaurant (which seems to be run by the same people). The menu is short and sweet; 10 types of banh mi along with a few Vietnamese desserts (sadly they were completely out). There were three workers running the deli; I like how they make all the banh mi's fresh. They actually ran out of bread but lucky for us, they got more delivered. Clearly fresh baguettes and they toast them on request. You can also choose exactly what you want in your banh mi's and if you'd like it spicy. - 2x Banh mi thit nguoi ($5.50) - assorted cold cuts with pâté. This is the classic, the OG. The baguette had a nice crispy outside and soft, slightly chewy inside. The butter that they smear inside is deliciously addictive. Good portion of meat and they stuff the inside with the usual cucumbers, pickled carrots, daikon and cilantro. - 2x Banh mi dac biet ($6.00) - house special sub. We tried this one out to compare; I liked this one a smidgen more. Might have been because we got this one spicy. Cheap hole in the wall spot with good quality banh mi. Cash only!

I tried the chicken and beef sub a few years ago and I didn't get the hype. Recently I tried the…read morecold cut sub and now I get the love this deli gets. The pate has a rougher texture and a stronger, richer flavour than Thi Thi, Trung Nguyen and Kim Anh. The meats were thickly cut and flavourful, and Saigon gives you more meat than other places. The toasted bread was crunchy, but not so hard it cuts into the roof of your mouth. With the smear of yellow butter and the smell of the pungent white onions, I found this sandwich rustic and satisfying. Pro tip - ask for extra butter and pate if you want your sub extra creamy. Otherwise the amount given is more moderate.

Very flavorful with a great marina sauce to balance the meatballs. Spice level was mild. If you are very sensitive to spice, this may not be for you. Beef Dip 10/10! Tender meat and flavorful rosemary au jus. Can't complain. Both sandwiches were a good size to be full. The bread was the best part: it was very soft and plush to soak up all the sauce and flavor in without getting soggy.
