    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!

    Chicken Caesar wrap

    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.

    Salad and Warm Bowl line
    Milena H.

    Menu is hearty and healthy. I got the farro bowl and it was delicious, except for the sesame dressing. WARNING: sesame dressing contains peanuts. Avoid if you have a peanut allergy like me. The service was great. They gave me hot tea to help with my itchy throat. The ambiance is simple and clean, similar to a Pret a Manger.

All the way down to the mayo wallpaper in the restroom! As a Dukes Mayo fan, that's awesome! To the food and drink. We had a pickle soda and local sour beer. Both were great and tasty on a hot day. We had three various appetizers from the cool ranch onion rings to the Seattle fries with a mix of dope beet salad in there. All were good, the onion rings were definitely my favorite and judging by all the orders I saw around, it was everyone else's as well. The mains were the RPG and the fish special. The RPG was a bit heavy on the mayo, next time would ask for less mayo but it was still delicious as a char su pork fan. This hit the mark. The fish sandwich was tangy and spicy which made it delicious. It was a bit messy and the bun didn't hold up great but that didn't detract from the flavors. All in all this place is a gem of a sandwich shop / bar. Would recommend if you are in the area.

I really enjoyed the sauces and couldn't stop eating them. I'd definitely recommend Thai place if you are looking for a good sandwich and a quick bite!

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.

The combination of meats, peppers, and Cholula mayo was delicious. Just a heads up, this place gets very busy around lunchtime, so I'd recommend ordering ahead for pickup or being prepared to wait a little. There's also limited seating inside. Overall, a great sandwich and I'll definitely be back.

On the weekends, there's a speakeasy in the back, which a lot of people don't expect since it looks like just a sandwich shop from the outside. That alone makes it a fun spot to pull up to if you're looking for something a little different. The vibe really starts picking up around 11 p.m. into midnight, so this is more of a late-night move than an early one. Mikey, the owner, who also works the door, is super friendly and always welcoming. The rest of the staff is cool as well, which honestly makes a big difference when it comes to the overall experience. Every time I've come here, the energy has been right and I've ended up having a good night. If you're looking for a low-key but lively late-night spot Caoo Deli is definitely worth checking out.

Both were done on Italian bread with sesame seeds (love). Ingredients were fresh and well filled. The tuna salad had mayo, celery, onions, lettuce and tomatoes. It had cheese which I don't care for but I was so hungry I didn't mind it. Was curious about the speakeasy doorway but too tired to venture in, next time! There were a lot of delivery drivers picking up orders so it took a while for me to place my order. Wish they'd have a separate order area apart from pickup. I wanted to eat there but it was way too chaotic with security, delivery drivers and people coming in and out of speakeasy door. We took the sandwiches to our car ate them while listening to music and enjoying the hell outta em samiches!!!
