    Bollywood sandwich add chicken
    Mariam M.

    I loveeee this place and can't wait to go again. The owner runs the shop and was such a sweet and friendly person. You can tell he really has a passion for what he's doing. He takes time with each sandwich rather than rushing just to get to the next customer. I got the Bollywood sandwich with chicken and it was so delicious, very unique flavor combination and was so fresh and toasty. Also the location is so close to Washington Square, it makes for a perfect stop to pick up sandwiches for a picnic.

    Breakfast bagel

    Probably the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had, hands down. The bagel was so fluffy and the ingredients were fresh. The service was also top notch, very friendly! There isn't much sitting room indoors, most of the tables are on the sidewalk to be patient if the weather isn't great! Highly recommend!

    J.Sapore

    This place is a hidden gem! Came here for breakfast off a whim and I'm so glad I did. Tucked inside of Little Italy - this neighborhood spot serves up bagels and sandwiches. I ordered the J.Sapore and it was delicious! it was 10/10 the owner was the only one taking orders and serving us up which and we was the best! will be back

    The Reuben sandwich

    This is a gem of a little sandwich shop. The Reuben sandwich and the BLT are fantastic.

    Must admit, IG videos have been catching my attention lately. So when the owner's daughter posted one, I thought to myself, how could I not know about a sandwich place in North Beach. Well, you knew I had to see for myself so I found time on a Friday morning to stop here. Despite having a lunch meeting, I stopped here, finding a metered parking space right in front around 10:30 am. There were two lady customers, one eating at a sidewalk table and another at the cashier counter. As I studied the menu while waiting, the gentleman behind the counter took and prepped her order. As he finished, he noticed that he forgot to turn on music and remedied that. He then took my order for two sandwiches to go and immediately worked on them. As I waited, a short line formed behind me that grew to five people by the time I paid and walked out. I started with the Primo sandwich (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&select=6bxVAn8OVA4P8ElyNstEAA), Genoa salami, Coppa ham, provolone, lettuce, tomatoes, red onions, pepperocini, Italian dressing, having half with some soup that I had at home for dinner. Capital O M G. The balance of ingredients, the quality, and the flavors shined. As you see, there is no shortage of meat and the perfect amount of lettuce, tomato, red onions, and pepperocini so that nothing was overwhelming. I loved that he used an Italian dressing instead of your usual mayonnaise found in other delis. I finished the other half for lunch after wrapping it tightly in a clear plastic wrap and it was fine. The morning after buying it, I reheated half of the Godfather sandwich (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&select=i0B-YnP1CbtNwYqd0tUaHw), meatballs, tomato sauce, mozzarella, red onions in my toaster oven for breakfast. I enjoyed it but it was much better the following day for lunch when I heated it longer. I learned that the upper element of my toaster was not working so I couldn't toast or broil it. It would have been better if done that way. The ingredients were simple and, again, everything was balanced. I liked that the tomato sauce had a distinct flavor or bell or green pepper to mesh with the meatballs, cheese, and red onions. It is probably best to eat this hot after buying it. The shop is small with only four or five window counter seats inside and two 2-top tables on the sidewalk outside. If you are a group, the best option is walking to Washington Square, a couple blocks away and making a picnic of it. The drink refrigerator is to the right and self-serve. Thank you, Elias, for providing me basically four meals last weekend. Now I know why you have five stars as you amaze me in doing all of the tasks in running this business. *** Side note - Striking a conversation with the customer behind me in line, I learned that his breakfast bagel amazing too (bookmarked for next time). I learned that the customer and his gf were visitors from the country to the north and returned after telling me about that bagel sandwich.

    Tuscano. Pesto, chicken, artichokes.
    Binh P.

    As much as I'd like to support the local business, this spot did not make sandwiches that would entice me to return. It's a really small space, but it's cozy and well utilized. I got myself the turkey cranberry and pesto chicken sandwiches and left feeling empty. They didn't taste bad. The turkey and chicken were quite tender. But in general, the sandwiches didn't have much taste at all. It's not a place I can really recommend for a good sandwich.

    "Sandwich" feels inadequate for the absolute masterpieces being served up by Chef Elias here. Prepare to be ruined for life...nothing else will ever compare.

    Where Taste Meets Friendly Service A few days ago, I was walking by Le Sandwich, and I noticed them for the first time in the four years they've been in business! That should say something about my attention to my surroundings! I walked in to see what they offer. I ended up having a very friendly chat with the owner, Elias (Eli-S). He is a personable man and shared everything I needed to know, making me want to return and try one of his popular sandwiches. I say "popular" because while I was there, neighbor after neighbor walked in to place an order, and they all seemed to be repeat customers. Anyhow, I got myself a drip coffee and, as I walked out, made a mental note to be back after the Thanksgiving holiday. Today, I went back and asked Elias for his personal favorite sandwich. He obliged me, and I asked him which one it was when he handed me the hefty sandwich. He replied, "You won't find it on the menu!" I hurried home with the sandwich and took my first bite. It was delicious! The roasted chicken breast strips were cooked perfectly, juicy, and flavorful. The pesto sauce enhanced the taste, and the bread was toasted, thin, and hollowed out, holding everything together nicely! The sandwich had more than chicken and pesto sauce, but I was too hungry to slow down and analyze it! Le Sandwich has a couple of tables outside where, on a nice day, one can sit and enjoy their meal. They also have a few stools at a counter facing the window. You can get your sandwich to go, as I did, or eat it there before it gets cold! In addition to sandwiches, Le Sandwich offers a variety of other items, including salads, and pastries. It also has a selection of beverages, from coffee and tea to fresh juices. The prices are reasonable, and the portions are generous. Le Sandwich is open from 9 AM to 3 PM every day except Sunday when it is closed. I highly recommend giving Le Sandwich a try. You won't be disappointed if you're in the mood for a quick bite or a leisurely meal.

    Toscana
    Gerard Y.

    I ordered the Toscana as it was chicken and pesto which was a tasty combination for this sandwich. I appreciate the fresh, sourdough roll which was soft with each bite. The guy behind the counter was pretty nice and was able to remember my order despite being fairly busy on an early Saturday afternoon. Very limited seating inside and out but there's a nice park 2 blocks away where I enjoyed my sandwich.

    The Viking  Smoke salmon

    Very good and cozy sandwich shop! Worth the stop and trip in North Beach. Viking sandwich highly recommend!

    Chicken pesto artichoke sandwich
    Jacqueline S.

    The sandwiches here are AMAZING and delicious and huge and made with love. We stopped in for a lunch on a mother daughter day and we were both delighted. And the owner is so kind and friendly. 11/10 would recommend. We had the chicken pesto and the tuna melt and wow!! Just incredible.

    Viking
    Jessica L.

    Wonderful sandwich shop that also sells salads, pastries, to go drinks! We had the turkey and Viking sandwiches. Turkey sandwich is a warm sandwich, the turkey is delicious, the cranberry sauce is nice and sweet and the arugula adds a good balance. Viking sandwich was a bit salty given the smoked salmon with capers, but delicious. Both sandwiches are fairly generous in size. We had one sandwich on the standard roll the chef uses and one on rye. The standard roll is better :) We also had a cinnamon bun - made in-house - delicious!! Would happily come back and try more of the menu! Service is delightful. We got there around 140pm on Saturday and waited almost 30mins to order.

    The Viking
    Rachel S.

    A perfect sandwich for the park! I tried both sandwiches and they were both really good. I think the Viking could have used mayo, but it was a good sandwich nonetheless. The granny Brie was genius (It's vegetarian!! ) and I'm definitely going to try to make my own at home.

    Little Italy did not disappoint! Scrumptious sandwich! The inside is delightful to walk through but…read morebe mindful it is a tight space. The sandwich had a crispy crust. Honestly, I wouldn't have gotten a sandwich if my wife didn't want one nor would I have said the listed ingredients sounded good. She was correct. Shocker! It all blended so well into every bite. I'd eat more sandwiches if they tasted like this.

    Wowowow …read more... Visited Alimento twice, my most recent being today -- 6/27. It's a small deli shop that offers gelato, sandwiches, and pastries. They also have quite a large selection of alcohol and cigarettes-- which could make for a good quick pick-me-up. I visited on a Wednesday night and got myself a cone with two scoops of Hazelnut Brownie + Stracciatella -- which were honestly so yummy. It was stretchy and soft and made for a perfect dessert after dinner. You are allowed only two samples though so be wary of your choices. Today, when I went -- I was excited to try their sandwiches, I was looking at the menu and the Alpino caught my eye. Normally, not a fan of bacon but this sandwich was fresh- the mix they offer in sauces and veggies were so good. The sandwich was refreshing to eat with a decent amount of turkey slices they packed in. The bread was also toasted and gave a nice crunch with a soft interior to every bite. The sandwich is admittedly a little pricey, but I would purchase again. Now the customer service, like other reviews may have mentioned was a little off at times? It didn't feel friendly or welcoming at times and when I was ordering I felt rushed or ignored-- I was trying to order two sandwiches to which, she immediately began to make the first one without a single word. I chose to wait until she was done because I wasn't sure when I could let her know about the other order as she was moving back and forth between stations, but she finished and I let her know about the other order to which she said, "How many more sandwiches?" Honestly, that comment did throw me off a little, but I told her this was the last one and she did make it quite quickly. Now, I'll give her the benefit of the doubt as she could be tired or not feeling the best-- but I would say I just wished she was a bit more acknowledgeable toward the customers behind the counter as it did make me discomforted by her lack of response and also the reaction she had when I let her know about the other sandwich. She did at least tell me to have a good day afterwards, so I do hope this isn't going to be a reoccurring incident as I really do love coming to Alimento for the gelatos and sandwiches. (~_~;) I would recommend coming here if you're visiting around North Beach! Alimento makes for a great lunch spot with their sandwiches or a nice sweet treat with their gelato. ^o^

Today me and my wife stopped in for lunch as we have a few times before. It was a warm day in the Bay Area today and we were out walking so I wore a nice sleeveless shirt. It was nice, new and clean. The hostess asked me to cover my shoulders but I said I didn't have anything with me. She sent the manager over. The manager told me no sleeveless shirts for men are allowed in her restaurant. Mind you this is lunch. Not dinner. This is not a super fancy place. Me and my wife were both properly and nicely dressed. I politely told her that I identify as a woman. She said it didn't matter. I said so you misspoke a moment ago and male or female cannot wear sleeveless shirts? She said correct. I looked around and there was a woman behind us wearing a sleeveless shirt. Not nearly as nice as mine or dressed as nice as me. I said ok I will wait here while you turn her away too. The manager then became very rude and said she isn't going to serve me no matter what. I told her are you sure about this and she said yes and asked me to leave. How embarrassing. I have never been turned away from any establishment in my life. Is this not discremenation due to my gender? Businesses have the right to refuse service to anyone unless it is for race, gender or age. I will be contacting an attorney this week. This is not ok. This is not right and I will stand up for my rights and the rights of others.

    My wife and I love this place and eat here frequently…read more Everything we've had here has been wonderful. Tonight we had the meatballs and a gluten-free Conrad. If you haven't tried their gluten-free pizza, I recommend giving it a shot. It is a "Detroit-style" crust and it is amazing (if you like that sort of thing). It's a mix of crunch and airiness. It's the closest thing to Portland's Boxcar Pizza, and IMHO is the best pizza in the Bay Area. Service is always good, and tonight Jordan took care of us and he did a fine job. It's a great place for a casual date or to bring the family. The place is clean, there's a chatty energy, and it seems a place where everyone is welcome.

The restaurant has a nice vibe, and the staff was friendly. It was busy, but service moved along at a good pace and we didn't have to wait long for our food. The pizza was good, but it just didn't wow me. The crust was nice and the ingredients seemed fresh, but with so many great pizza places in San Francisco, I expected a little more. The appetizers were fine too, but nothing really stood out. It's also not a cheap meal, so I walked away expecting a bit more for the price. I will say this location was definitely better than my experience in the Mission, so I'm glad I gave it another chance. That said, if I'm in North Beach and craving pizza, I'm still heading to Tony's Pizza Napoletana. If I'm looking for something a little more casual, Golden Boy Pizza is another favorite. Both have more personality and, in my opinion, are worth choosing over Flour + Water. The best part of the night actually came afterward. We walked over to Original Joe's for a couple of after-dinner cocktails, and that completely made the evening. It's hard to beat the old-school San Francisco atmosphere, and it ended up being my favorite part of the night.
