    Prosciutto?
    Rachel B.

    We went to the Best Sandwich Place because I heard they have a great caesar salad wrap. I have to say, the caesar wrap did not disappoint! It was delicious. However, my husband's sandwich was not what he ordered. He ordered a prosciutto and arugula sandwich, but what they gave him was a ham sandwich. The staff seemed disorganized. It was confusing to figure out which line was for what. They could definitely work on making sure the order comes out right.

    So the sandwiches here are pretty good, definitely a solid stop by for some sammys, sales or wraps. Big big fan of the steak and herb aoli sandwich, that has now become my go-to. I've had other sandwiches like the cubano and other hot sandwiches and nothing but my pallets like whoa I gotta order that again. But the steak and herb aoli, I'll order that any day of the week. If you want something on the healthier side you can't go wrong with the chicken Caesar salad, they essentially take the salad, croutons included and put it in a wrap, delicious!

    Amazing sandwiches, a ton of options and really good coffee! Service is fast but can feel chaotic at times. Great spot for a quick lunch or coffee.

    This is my hands down favorite lunch spot in dc! I probably go twice a month if I have enough self control to not go every week. The chicken Caesar wrap is one of my favorite things ever. I'd eat it everyday if I could and never get sick of it! Staff are always friendly and I branched out to try one of their sandwiches once and it was delicious too! But I'll probably always get the Caesar wrap. I always ask for a side of the buffalo sauce too, elevates it that much more!

    After walking all over the main sites in DC, we were starving and came across this place. The food was probably some of the best we've ever had with large portion sizes. The sandwich melts in your mouth and the salad was highly customizable. The overall ambiance of the place was also very clean and simple. It kind of reminded me of a school cafe. The service was quick and workers are helpful.

    Chicken Caesar wrap with jalapeños
    Thuy L.

    I walk past this place all the time but didn't stop in until it was too cold to venture too far...now that I have, I can't stop thinking about it. The chicken Caesar wrap with jalapeños added was sooo worth the hype. Packed full of crunchy lettuce, croutons and chicken and bursting at the seams. It was incredible and the price is fairly reasonable for downtown fare. Upgrading to a combo with chips and a soda only costs $1! I will definitely be back to try other menu items. One warning with the chicken Caesar wrap- it's thicc so if you have to unhinge your jaw to eat it maybe it in the privacy of an empty break room or not at your desk...

    5 inch $18+ tax chicken sub

    A 5 inch CHICKEN sub for $18+ tax is unacceptable. It's truly mind blowing how expensive and pathetic the portions are here. Will never go back They also take forever. The restaurant is set up so the cashier has no clue what she's putting in. 0/5 experience

    This place was slammed at 12:30. The dual lines (one for salads and one for sandwich's) moves quickly, the staff is very expedient. And the seating cleared up quickly. Super clean. Loved my salad.

    Poorly made wrap
    Jeff M.

    Food was good. We got the chicken Caesar wrap. Too much lettuce. Good chicken, dressing and croutons. It was good, not great. It was rushed and not packed properly so it fell apart the instant we tried to pick it up. Easier to eat as a salad with a fork.

    Was really excited to try out this place and it didn't disappoint! They have a huge variety of sandwiches and salads. The salads are huge and I like that they toss it before packing it in a takeaway container. I got the chicken caesar salad wrap and it was delicious (and large). Despite waiting an hour or so to eat it agter i initially got it, the wrap didn't get soggy and the lettuce and croutons inside were still pleasantly crisp. The service was a little bit slow but it was the lunch rush and still very organized.

    The office I work at loves to order here for luncheons. This time I tried one of their fan favorites the Sweet Thai Chili Grilled Chicken Sandwich. It was so so good. I was very impressed. It had the right amount of kick from the chili and crunch from the slaw. Next luncheon, I will prob order again thats just how good it was & on a warm brioche bun.

But maybe that's better for them too. You can order to-go at the window and/or request a spot in the limited spaced dining/bar area. I've only gotten the Sub Club the few times I've gone here but what can I say? its a fail proof staple that is hard to get wrong and that they do very right. I often pair it with one of their drinks, this time being the spicy ginger ale which was solid as well. There's really not much place to dine-in if you're trying to dine and go - I recommend only using the dining area if you're solo, a couple, or part of a small group (at MOST maybe - a hard maybe - on 4 people) and only if you want to use the bar. One couple tried to squeeze in a baby stroller into the bar/dining area. Its really not suitable for things like suitcases or strollers so if you're in that camp maybe try some other spots because that also made a tiny space all the more difficult to navigate. Also, if you have a mobility device, this might not be the best spot for you either. I've never used their restrooms before so can't comment on that one. I still will say it is good for when you want to grab and go - so if you're in that category, and you like moderately priced sandwiches (for this part of town) this might work for you.

Most people order their sandwiches to go. The line can get pretty long, but you get through at a decent pace, I wouldn't say fast. Simple and straightforward ordering process, just remember what you ordered because they don't take names. I go between the Crunchy Boi and the Marisa Tomei Eats Free, which are both great. The Crunchy Boi is probably their most popular sandwich and it's lighter than you would think considering it's filled with potato chips. I think it's worth trying once. The Marisa Tomei, on the other hand, has never failed me. It's balanced with an absurd amount of arugula against the meat, and it's never dry. The portions are generous, like you could definitely split it into two meals, but they're not so heavy that you couldn't finish a sandwich in one sitting.

I heard good things about their sandwiches. My go to is normally Mangialardo's on Pennsylvania Ave in SE DC or Carl's Subbs on Rhode Island Ave in NE DC. I think I will stick to both of them next time. The staff was very friendly and helpful to me as a first timer but the sandwich was totally disapointing! NOT worth it, at all. I ordered a 9 inch capicola, ham, and cheese sub on the hard roll. The roll was very good and fresh but I couldn't taste the cheese or meat in the sandwich because there wasn't enough of it. I tasted the bread, the toppings of lettuce, tomato and onions. I decided to deconstruct the sandwich and found exactly 4 very thinly sliced pieces of meat and 2 very thinly sliced pieces of cheese as pictured clearly in the photographs. I also noticed that the they have different prices for the same type of meats. For example, they have a $29.99 per pound Capicola and one for $9.99 a pound. I asked which went on the sandwich and of course it was the cheaper one. That wasn't surprising and getting my sandwich back to the office. I decided not to eat the rest of the meatless sandwich and just take the loss. I wouldn't come back nor would I recommend a friend to try it
