City Sandwich is a pick-up and go style lunch place with endless options. Really, you can order whatever kind of sandwich you desire and run with it. All orders are served on a light Portuguese baguette. The menu is categorized by the following: meat, vegetarian and fish and sandwiches with egg. The variety is enormous and each is under $10. I recommend getting a sandwich with a spread or strong flavor to overpower the thick and crunchy yet soft bread. All sauces are yogurt or pesto based –no mayo.
Options to try next:
- Lucy: Steamed Shrimp, Watercress Chopped Onions, Tomato Honey Basil-Yogurt Sauce
- Victoria: Chicken Breast, Tomato, Broccoli Rabe, Sautéed Onions, Melted Mozzarella, Olive Oil.
