15 fantastic sandwiches in Dallas
The average American eats nearly 200 sandwiches each year. As one of the most popular breakfast dishes in America, National Sandwich Day on November 3 gives us a great reason to celebrate some of this city’s delicious sandwiches. While it’s virtually impossible to list all types of sandwiches and all the great places to find them in Dallas, here are a few worthy of note.
Witch Sandwich
1902 S. Lamar Street
Sandwich Hag offers legitimate bánh mì sandwich options ($ 10.75 – $ 12.75) made with pork, sausage, tofu, chicken, and vegetables. Their Nem Nướng Bánh Mì is a bestseller with their homemade pork sausage a little sweet with lots of garlic and a little sticky. A savory sausage comes with homemade pickles, vegetables, a garlic aioli spread, all on a freshly baked Vietnamese baguette. And we love their “no asshole rule” and believe everyone should strive to be nice, cool, and kind. So check it out the next time you’re at Deep Ellum.
Loro Asian Smokehouse & Bar
1812 North Haskell Ave.
Loro Asian Smokehouse & Bar recently opened in Dallas, a partnership between Franklin’s Barbecue and Uchi (both based in Austin). It is a gastronomic combination that you should try. Just warning: you will need some towels on hand to deal with them Oak-smoked beef brisket. Topped with a salad of crispy papaya, peanuts, chili aioli and Thai herbs on a chewy bun, this melt-in-your-mouth sandwich is one of the best non-traditional beef brisket sandwiches around. will hit your lips this year.
Alamo Club
1919 Greenville Avenue.
The breakfast sandwich ($ 12) at Alamo Club is an example of what appears to be a basic sandwich but far surpasses anything you can find in a drive-thru, and it’s worth sitting down and savoring every delicious bite. . It’s served with several slices of smoked pecan bacon, two eggs (cooked to order), crispy hash browns (McD’s style), grated longhorn cheddar cheese and jalapeño mayonnaise. This sandwich is only served on weekends but is the perfect combination of salty, crispy and spicy and will take your Sunday Funday to a whole new level.
Big Tony’s West Philly Cheese Cookies
13378 Preston Road (also located at Allen, DeSoto and Plano)
While there are plenty of places that serve a great cheesesteak sandwich in Dallas, the cheesesteaks at Big Tony’s West Philly Cheesesteaks are pretty darn good. Big Tony’s commitment to quality includes purchasing his bread from Amoroso’s in Philadelphia, which is considered the hallmark of a true Philadelphia cheesesteak. The Broadstreet Cheese Steak comes with steak, mushrooms, banana peppers, sautéed onions, jalapeños and cheese. Banana peppers add an unexpected and delicious flavor to the sandwich that could easily send it to the Cheesesteak Hall of Fame (if there is such a thing).
Jonathon’s Dinner
1619 N. Beckley Ave.
At Jonathon’s Diner, there’s a good chance you’ll need a jaw extender to get this delicious club sandwich ($ 12) in your mouth. It’s served with ham, turkey, bacon, Swiss, American, LTO, avocado, eggs, and mayonnaise on sliced sourdough bread and is a bite of flavor.
Modest Rogers
3811 Fairmount Street
Modest Rogers recently opened in Uptown, and owner and chef Modesto “Mo” Rodriguez serves his authentic Cuban sandwich ($ 15) on their lunch menu only and it’s a dish made with a pure heart and soul. It features sliced roast pork, ham, Swiss cheese, pickle pickles, and garlic mustard aioli on their freshly toasted Cuban bread. The bread alone will make you wish you had ordered two. Add all those delicious, fresh layers of meat and cheese, and you’d be crazy NOT to order two.
Commissioner
1217, main street
For those who don’t regularly travel to downtown Dallas, do yourself a favor and take the trip especially for the french dip ($ 13) at the Economat. The fresh French bun is loaded with minced beef, caramelized onions and Dijon mustard. But what makes this version fantastic and unique is that their steeping “juice” is actually Phở broth, which is earthy, aromatic and flavorful.
Neighborhood pizzeria PT
5715 Lemmon Avenue
Most of you already know how great the pizza crust is at Pie Tap and their new spin-off, PT Neighborhood Pizzeria. So it’s no surprise that they also make their own sourdough bread for these sandwiches, and they managed to stuff their Classic Italian Combination Sandwich ($ 12) with prosciutto, salami, pepperoni, ham, fontina, hot peppers, Calabrian chili aioli, tomato, lettuce and Italian dressing. And we can confirm that it is great, indeed.
The Free Man Cajun Café & Lounge
2626, rue du Commerce
The muffuletta ($ 12.95) at Free Man Cajun Café & Lounge is something special. Just make sure you are hungry when you order it. A whole, once assembled, is the size of a human head. The bread is solid enough to stay crisp, despite the moist olive salad. And the sandwich is believed to improve as the flavors blend together, so do yourself a favor and consider ordering an extra one for the next day.
Provisions for brown bags
150, boul. Turtle Creek, office 202
Brown Bag Provisions was voted on by the Observer as the Best Sandwich Place for 2021. And we can say that Charles Pastrami ($ 13) is food porn on Instagram. The good news is, it tastes as good as it looks. They brine the meat for seven days with brown sugar, mustard, salt, juniper, cumin, fennel, garlic and pepper. It is then rubbed with spices, smoked, and then vacuum-cooked for two days. They glaze it with miso and serve it in a traditional Ruben style over marbled rye, topped with horseradish pickles, Swiss cheese and old-fashioned mustard.
Tasty tails
4950 Belt Line, Suite 190A (Addison)
The po-boys at Tasty Tails packed with your choice of shrimp, catfish, oysters, or soft shell crab ($ 11.99 – $ 20.99). They get their French bread from Gambino’s Bakery or Leidenheimer Bread in New Orleans. If you’ve never had the chance to have French bread from Gambino’s or Leidenheimer’s, do yourself a favor and come here ASAP. Po-boys can be ordered half (8 “) or whole (12”). And if you’re around during the week between 11:30 a.m. and 3 p.m., you can pick up a 6-inch po-boy stuffed with fried shrimp or catfish and chips or their delicious okra for $ 9.99.
Deli News
17062 Preston Road
Dallas has several delicatessens that serve amazing sandwiches. But Deli News is a Dallas institution to be reckoned with. And their Ruben sandwich ($ 14.99) is hard to beat. Corned beef stacked on their grilled fresh New York rye. A mound of sauerkraut is topped with melted Swiss cheese and served open, just like in New York.
Round Top
4800 Bryan Street
Top Round has taken the Dallas roast beef sandwich market by storm since it opened a few years ago. Their sandwiches are served daily with USDA Choice Top Round slowly roasted and the juice is homemade. They have five options on their menu, but because we’re gluttonous for punishment and love the nose hair buckling effect of horseradish, we’re leaning towards the Horse and hole or the Beef on Weck.
Latin charcuterie
5844 Abrams Road
There is nothing better than the taste of a caprese dish on a hot summer day with its slices of fresh tomatoes and creamy buffalo mozzarella with fragrant sprigs of basil. At Latin Deli, they take all of these ingredients and load them onto their fresh ciabatta bread to make one of the best veggie sandwiches in Dallas. The Tomato and Mozzarella Supreme a creamy avocado, pickled onions and sautéed jalapeños. The combination of all these flavors will convert even the most hardened carnivores.
Invasion
4029 Crutcher Street
Nashville’s hot chicken sandwiches recently exploded in the DFW area. We recently highlighted the 10 Best Hot Chicken Sandwiches in Dallas, and there are some really hot and delicious options. But the Cardi B to Invasion in East Dallas keeps us awake at night.
