Yummmmmm! I heard about this place from another foodie and I just had to try it! I came recently on a Saturday and there was little to no wait! You can check their lines on damnlines.com before heading over. Since there was only 5-7 min wait at the time I decided to go over and grab a sandwich! It's pretty packed inside at all times as people tend to order a full sandwich and eat in so the flavor retains and is the best experience you can get. Every seat is usually full but people tend to scarf it down by 8-10 min! I love French onion dip so this sandwich was a godsend. I think it's quite pricey for a sandwich at a whopping $38 so we shared it and reheated the second one the next day! The matchstick fries are actually so good and complemented the sandwich really well. I loved the prime rib inside and the French onion dip it came with which made the crispy baguette slightly wet, making the inside soft and flavorful but it maintained all the crisp on the outside. definitely one of my favorite baguettes that I ate in my life (for a sandwich) They said they only have this prime rib sandwich on the menu but sometimes will have the chicken parm so it's best to visit and check if you wanted to try something else! I definitely want to try it too! read more

Salt Hank's is a solid, TikTok-famous French dip spot that delivers a good sandwich, but the experience is heavily dependent on timing. We showed up 30min early and were in the first group to go in. The French dip itself is genuinely tasty well made, flavorful, and satisfying in that classic, messy way you want from the style. The limeade is also surprisingly good and pairs well with the richness of the sandwich. That said, I'm not sure it fully justifies the close to 1 hour wait which I could see easily going over two hours. It feels more like an excellent one time experience than a repeatable go to unless the line is minimal. Without the hype and queue, it would land much stronger as a casual staple. Overall: good food, fun experience, but the wait definitely affects the value. read more

As a big fan of French Dip sandwiches had to give Salt Hank's a try after hearing all about of it. Line was relatively long before they opened on a busy Sunday morning but the staff manages the flow well. Had the French Dip combo with the Matchstick Fries and a Brooklyn Best Iced Tea. The sandwich was terrific - the meat was tender and especially juicy when dipped in the au jus. Perhaps a tad on the salty side. Overall though, perhaps not the very best French Dip that I've ever had but definitely amongst the best. Helps to justify the price. read more

A solid option for a French dip sandwich in the west village! I do think the move is to go a little before the spot opens at 11:30. I was able to wait for 30 minutes to go in and get my sandwich. I will say the horseradish was a bit aggressive for me but the bread was such a good crunch and still soft and the horseshoe fries were like thin potato chips. The staff paced out people to come in and out of the restaurant so that there wasn't overcrowding and I appreciated it. The spot itself is pretty small too but since it's only one thing on the menu people order quickly and move on. read more

So did you know you can get a select number of reservations on OpenTable? I jumped the line and walked right in!!! And yes the hype is legit! Best French dip ever 100%!!! 2 whole red onions caramelized on each sandwich. Everything about it is incredible. Beef = Pat Lafrieda = nuff said. Bread is crusty and totally holds up and makes the sandwich. Horseradish aioli is the bomb. Get some extra and love the matchstick fries!!! The wait isn't even that bad!!! You gotta go! read more

**Ordered for pickup on Grbhub to avoid the line! The French dip was delicious, albeit slightly overhyped. I would not get the fries again, to me these are more like crisps/skinny potato chips. Definitely a sandwich shop you should try at least once, but I probably won't be back. read more

Finally got to try this viral spot. Thank goodness they just opened their pre-order on Seamless, because the line looped around the block on Saturday morning. It was nuts. Cold, grey morning, two hour wait? No thank you. The sandwich price went up from $27 to $34, which is insane. Paying restaurant prices for take out essentially. Bunch of people did what we did--pre-ordered and ate standing up, with their food spread out on the car hood. Not doing Justice to this not cheap meal. The shaved meat was tasty and delicate. I wish there were more caramelized onions (which added that superb sweetness that was so necessary), but my sandwich barely had any. Appreciated the horseradish mayo on the bread--it added a much needed kick to the fattiness of the sandwich. This was so filling, you'll be done with food for the rest of the day. The bread gets soggy rather quickly, so I recommend biting into your sandwich as soon as you receive your take out bag from the staff. I liked the crunch and the heartiness of the bread. Au jus was super salty and didn't add much flavor in my opinion. I enjoyed the sandwich without it, surprisingly. $6 shoestring fries reminded me of childhood--perfectly crunchy. Like chips! This is my kind of indulgence--soooo salty that you don't need condiments--the crispy, salty, oiliness is complete without any additions. Good portion to fill you up. Or share. PSA: the food is Ssoooo salty, you'll be parched for the rest of the day. Salty Hank's indeed. I got an insane headache from all the sodium. Overall, would I return? If I don't have to wait in line, maybe. The prices are up there, for that amount you can eat a superb French dip roast beef sandwich at a few top notch restaurants, where you'll also get to enjoy the ambiance and actually appreciate the opportunity to relax while consuming your food, not feel like a homeless person stuffing your sandwich, as shoestring fries scatters all over yourself, standing up in the cold, against the hood of your car. read more

Ordered for pick up during the 30 minute window open on GrubHub and went in the store to pick it up. They prepared it and brought it out to me once it was complete. When I went, there weren't many people so we were able to eat in store. It was good, but I don't think it's worth the price tag. Maybe it was because it was originally ordered us takeout, it was a little bit soggy that I would've liked even before dipping. The crispy fries were not my style - more of a chip than a fry; I would definitely bypass ordering it. I'm more likely to not order again vs going out on my way to order. read more

I happened to walk by Salt & Hanks on a Wednesday right when they opened. There was no wait, and I was able to get in without standing in a long line. The place is small but well-decorated. They've clearly optimized every inch for seating. I ordered the French dip, their signature dish. Unfortunately, the shoestring fries were unavailable the day I went, but the sandwich was amazing on its own. The thing is massive. I could only finish half and had to pack up the rest. If I'd gone with someone else, splitting it would have been perfect. I've had French dips from other notable spots in the city, and it's clear that Salt & Hanks is doing a few things differently. The caramelized onions and the garlic baguette from Frenchette really set it apart. I've seen many people complain about the price, but it's in the same ballpark as its competitors in NYC. Overall, I really loved it and want to go back again. Try to go on a weekday if possible to avoid the line. read more

I don't usually stand in lines - but I had to for this sandwich. I went late afternoon (after the lunch rush) on a Sunday and probably waited over half an hour. Bottom line: The French Dip is delicious- mind-bendingly so. All the components are perfection - a crispy, crackly baguette, divinely cooked prime rib, carmelized onions, a horeseradish-tinged aioli. And every bite made more succulent by dipping it into the jus. I mean it's just so good - and then after the first bite, you add the shoestring fries to the sandwich for crunch and it's a whole other level. But here's the thing - it's not cheap and you've just spent a lot of time waiting in a line. Would I be more likely to go again if it were cheaper or if there was no line? Probably. But the $$$ + time just kind of deflates the joy. But it does not take away from the fact that this is a SUPERB sandwich - easily the best french dip I've ever had. read more

The French Dip ($34) is an extraordinary, superlative sandwich. It's worth trying once. It's a no-compromise, no-frill (really) manifestation of an indulgent dish. Each component is perfect. The crusty baguette, the tender flavorful prime rib, the deeply caramelized heap of onions, the tangy horseradish aioli, and the piping hot savory jus... all perfect. My initial reaction was balking at paying $34 ($40 all in) for counter service at a one-trick pony shop, but then I paid $29 for a French Dip at a place known for French Dips, and it was a sorry comparison. Like a Prius compared to a Bentley. That's what convinced me to 5-star such Salt Hank's exorbitant sandwich. I waited for opening with like-minded people for about 15 minutes on a Wednesday, but there was no wait for the rest of time I was eating. The counter ordering system is pleasant. I appreciated their takeout packaging station because I definitely brought home half for my wife to enjoy. She endorses the sandwich too -- even in its leftover state. read more

I was blown away. We showed up at opening on Friday and did not get in the first seating, so had to wait around half an hour, but oh boy would I wait again. The inside is small and they really are efficient in getting the sandwiches out, but there's not much space which is the reason there is always a line. Got the french dip with the fries and pro-tip - add the peppers! Each bite absolutely melted in my mouth, and my favorite bites was the sandwich dipped in the au jus and topped with the thin crispy "fries" and peppers. The meat is so tender you don't even have to chew and the bread was perfectly crisp and chewy. How was this meal so delicious and flavorful without feeling heavy at all? Extremely worth it - a must try! read more

Loraine said "quick lunch" so naturally I'm standin in a line down the block for a sandwich. Sun hittin my face, nobody movin, people actin like they got nowhere else to be. I've seen cattle show more urgency. Line took forever. Nobody complained neither, just noddin along like this is normal behavior now... it ain't. Got the French dip and I'll say it plain... it's good, real good. Bread held up, meat had some weight to it, ju was right, horse radish will kick you in the mouth like a screen door slam in August. That part they got figured out. Still 30 dollars for a sandwich. I don't care how good it is, that don't make sense to me or anyone I was raised around. No fries. Middle of the day. Middle of the week. Lady said they "run out till restock" like I'm supposed to plan my life around their potato schedule. Where I'm from, runnin outta potatoes is how rumors start. Loraine said we should come back earlier next time. That's how this keeps happenin. One bad decision stackin on another. Sandwich is good. Everything else about it wears on you. read more

Best French Dip ever (Also the most expensive)!. Two French Dips and shared fries ran about $80. That's honestly more than I expected for two sandwiches. For that price (and 45 minutes waiting on line), the expectations were through the roof. The melty beef on a crusty baguette was perfect. You basically didn't need to chew the beef. Rare and tender, just how I want my beef. The au jus was oniony and just salty enough but not overly so. I could drink this au jus. The crusty baguette stood firm even when dipped, just the perfect companion. I was going to skip the fries initially but glad I didn't. These fries were more like matchbook potato sticks. You use your fingers to crane up a bunch and unload them in your mouth. Seating wise, there is eating space for about 22-30 people inside. I sat at the counter and got a great view of Bleeker street while I ate my sandwich. There is just one line to order regardless of whether you eat in or take out, and it can be a monster of a line right now. I started waiting 45 mins before opening and was about the 20th person, and had to wait another 30 minutes to get in after they opened. Hopefully it will simmer down in a bit as this was a long wait. Service was friendly and prompt. read more

I'll say this with my whole chest: this was the BEST thing I ate in all of New York (sorry not sorry)! We waited in line for 2 hours and got there about 20 minutes before they opened. But it was SO worth it. There's a Blank Street coffee down the way so you can hit that and enjoy a warm coffee while you wait. They give you a colored ticket based on if you're going take out or dining in. We chose to dine in but saw lots of people take it to go and eat outside which is always an option. Once we got inside, we ordered our food and it came out quick. The au jus was STEAMING, so fresh and flavorful. The bread was crunchy but the au jus helped soften it a bit. The meat was tender and the caramelized onions were to die for. The host did an awesome job of clearing tables and keeping a steady flow of people in and out. Seating was pretty solid as well. Simply put: if I knew I could get a sandwich (because they do sell out fairly fast), I would absolutely wait 2 hours for this sando again! read more

We were recommended this place by a foodie. The lines were long but totally worth it for what we were about to experience. They only have one thing on the menu and that is French Dip with crispy shoe string fries and coleslaw. We waited for a good 45 minutes. Place is not too big but we got a seat next to the kitchen. Service is great and very friendly. The sandwich is by far the best French Dip I have eaten. So soft and juicy with the perfect au jus. I actually drank the whole thing! The cheese melted nicely and incorporated giving it a French onion soup taste. Highly recommend it and definitely going there again!!! Great job, guys read more

I was so excited to try this French dip spot and it lived up to the hype! I went on a Friday at 12:30pm and there was a long line but it moved more quickly than I thought. The wait was only 30min to be seated. As you're in line, a worker will handout tickets depending on if you want to eat in or do take out. Takeout is much faster since they let you go to the front. After ordering at the counter, you seat yourself. The water is self serve. The sandwiches come out quickly and it was nice and hot! The French dip comes on a beautiful crusty baguette, tons of tender prime rib and flavorful caramelized onions. The au jus was very savory and meaty, perfect to dip the sandwich into. It was pretty big so I could only finish 2/3s of it. They have a takeout station on the back counter so you can take your leftovers home which is nice. Overall, it was great sandwich and worth the wait. read more

Salt Hank's 280 Bleecker St. New York, NY 10014 French Dip Combo: French Dip Shoestring Fries Can of Brooklyn Peach Tea Located in the west village directly off the five corner intersection is a restaurant that sells primarily french dip sandwiches. These specialty sandwiches are so popular that there will always be a wait to place an order. Here is the meal I explored from this limited menu. French Dip Combo: This combo includes the french dip, shoestring fries, and can of Brooklyn tea. On a constructive note, I wasn't too fond of the appearance, especially with the shoestring fries just sloppily thrown onto the plate. As soon as I took my first bite, the appearance didn't matter because this signature sandwich was phenomenal. The thinly sliced prime rib was packed tight and was topped with melted provolone cheese on a toasted sourdough baguette smothered in garlic aioli. And no french dip is ever complete without a cup of au jus. The shoestring fries were very skinny and crispy. They had a texture identical to potato chips. Have a spoonful or handful; the choice is yours. All of this goodness was washed down with a refreshing ice cold can of Brooklyn Peach Tea. If you wish to take home any memorabilia, feel free to purchase souvenirs from the gift shop, in particular a Salt Hank's cookbook featuring the recipe for the signature sandwich. The restaurant is only open four days per week, so please plan accordingly. Although I may have disliked the presentation, I truly loved this specialty signature sandwich. #westvillage #salthanks #bleeckerstreet #frenchdip #frenchdipsandwich #frenchdipcombo #shoestringfries #brooklynpeach #peachtea read more

Food: 5/5 Service: 4.3/5 Ambiance: 4.3/5 Value: 4/5 I greatly enjoyed the French Dip sandwich ($34 as of Dec. 17, 2025) at Salt Hank's. It takes a lot of time and prep to make. The prime rib is so soft and delicious, the bread is crisp and chewy, the seven-hour caramelized onions provide sweetness and tanginess, the consomme is savory without being too salty, and the aioli puts it over the top. It may be the best sandwich I've had in the city. There was a little bit of confusion, though. Some of us were welcomed in to have a seat anywhere, but it wasn't made clear to us that we need to order at the register first before taking a seat. It was only when I saw them calling out names that I realized that there would be no one to take my order while I was sat; that I would need to get up and do that myself. The servers and expediter were friendly and helpful. It is a very expensive sandwich, and it's not so big that you'll have a lot left over. But it's very tasty and is now on my list of places that I may have to visit at least anually. read more

When I visited on a weekend morning about 15 minutes before opening time (11:30am), there was already a line down the block. The wait was about 40ish minutes (for dine in). The hostess was on top of remembering who was in line for takeout and who wanted to dine in. There was no separate line, you just had to wait for the hostess to get to you. I was going to dine in and was given a ticket to confirm that I had been waiting in line. There was table seating for larger groups and counter style seating by the front and rear of the place. The french dip sandwich is definitely on the pricier side (price has gone up a bit since they first opened). I got the french dip by itself to see what the hype was about as it had been all over my feed. The baguette was crispy and lathered in a rich garlic chive butter while the roast beef was very smoky in flavor and paired well with the sweetness of the caramelized onions. The provolone cheese also was a nice addition to the sandwich. There was also horseradish aioli (according to the menu) but I didn't taste it too much as the roast beef was the main star. I think adding a vegetable to cut through the heaviness of the sandwich would be nice or maybe offer it as a side. For the price, it is quite a large sandwich and definitely shareable. They had a pack to go station by the kitchen in case you decided to take your food to go. Eating this got quite messy so luckily there was a bathroom in the back to wash my hands afterwards! read more

Is it amazing? Yes. The French Dip sandwich truly is delicious. The bread is perfect mix of firm and soft and great for dipping. The meat is tender, flavorful, and moist. The onions? So good. And it's big enough for two people to share. Get the extra au jus just in case. But is it worth $32? That's something only you to decide. But you should decide before waiting 50 minutes in line like we did. Nevertheless, we enjoyed it with a limeade too. The shoestring fries are, if anything, even thinner than a shoe string. I tend to like mine with a little more to it, but still, it was great to have them peppered around the sandwich itself. And the au jus, as I mentioned, is a great mix of flavors. As a long time French Dip fan, I was in heaven. You should be too. So long as price really doesn't matter. read more

I've been following Salt Hank on TikTok for a while, so I finally went to check out the shop. We waited about 30 minutes for two, but the weather was great so it didn't feel bad at all. You basically stay in line until a table opens up, then you order and the food comes out pretty fast. The French Dip is honestly incredible -- a legit 10/10. Super tender shaved beef, melted provolone, caramelized onions, and that horseradish-garlic aioli that just works. The jus is rich and flavorful without being salty. I've tried a bunch of French dips before and this one really is on another level. We grabbed the coleslaw too, which was surprisingly good. fres, creamy, a little tangy and slightly sweet. It balances out the sandwich perfectly. Definitely worth the wait. This place lives up to the hype. read more

Ran straight from TikTok. The line was wrapped around the corner 30 minutes before opening. Once opened the staff handed out tickets and things moved quickly. Inside is a galley style restaurant with maybe 8 tables and a short counter with a few seats. Only one thing sold here and they do it well. Prime rib French dip. The bread is perfectly crisp on the outside soft on the inside. The meat is buttery fatty melt in ur mouth tender packed with flavor topped with the most delicious caramelized onions. The aus jus (insert mouth watering emoji) flavor so rich so intense I just wanted to put it in a sippy cup. Nothing more to say. Stop reading. Just GO! read more

Probably the best French Dip I ever had. The wait can be long but is so worth it, you'll realized when you try the first bite. The sourdough baguette bread is perfection, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside that miraculously holds structure while the juices of the tender meat dripped out. The caramelize onions and provolone compliments the sandwich incredibly. The au jus is so rich, you should try it by itself. Also the fries are unique and very crispy, I personally dipped the sandwich into the jus and then smush it into the fries for a perfect bite. My mouth is watering right now just thinking about it haha... It's a bit on the pricier side for a sandwich but portions are generous, I shared mine with my mom and it was perfect. Fills you up. The staff were friendly. They even offer NALA, my service dog, some small meat bites. Coming back for sure!! read more

Let me cut to the chase - unfortunately (because of the lines), this is a very excellent spot. I actually wasn't originally interested in Salt Hank's - I'm not a super big French dip gal, so the idea of waiting in line for one always put me off. I came by last Sunday though because I had a friend in town who wanted to try, and boy am I glad I did. Yes - the line is still ~1h long on a weekend morning, the skinny potato sticks still should not be called fries, and it is on the more expensive side for a lunch. All that being said, the sandwich was so juicy, tender, and flavourful that all of these protests fell away as soon as I took my first bite. I will definitely be back - hopefully to a slightly shorter line, but I'd still wait for it (and that should say a lot!). read more

Ever since my algorithm of sandwiches and Seth Meyers joined forces and combined into one when the owner Henry was presenting on Seth Meyers about this French Dip sandwich, I knew I would be coming on our NYC spring break. French Dip is one of my favorite things on this earth (with Huevos Rancheros) and I will try them at any place big or small. I can say unequivocally that this is the best French Dip I have ever had. I want to make something clear, I am not an influencer, I post rarely on yelp or any review site but when I do it means the place matters. The meat is top notch and ever since I heard about the compound butter they use I became obsessed with how it affects the meat. The onion paste on the bread makes it feel like he invented a French onion soup spread and the bread is perfect. Paired with the homemade limeade and I was very happy. Our order was enough for a family of 5 with teenagers so the sammie's are huge. Thank you from Las Vegas. I will carry home the legend of this place for the rest of my life. read more

After hearing all the hype on how Salt Hank's is one of the best French Dip Sandwiches in the city, I got in line at 11 on a Saturday morning to try it out for myself. I was about 15th in line and when the shop opened at 11:30, service was very quick. I ordered for pick up, and got my food after five minutes after ordering. Inside was comfortable with tables and bar seating. The sandwich was definitely great, and I'm not normally a fan of french onion soup/dip. The roast beef was flavorful and the dip was not too salty. The fries add a nice crunch to the sandwich, and half was more than enough for me! I do wish there was some pickled veggie or something similar to cut through the heaviness, but overall a great sandwich! read more

Yep. It is 100% the real deal. I'm a self proclaimed French Dip expert (I just love French Dips and have pilgrimaged in LA to both theoretical inventors of the sandwich). This one is FANCY. It's elite. It's over the top. And it is worth the wait. read more

Okay, I randomly saw this show up and I sent it to S to see if S was down to go. But this was before I knew anything about it and didn't realize this place was one of those places that tons of influencers are promoting. I got more info and it seems as though the wait is long and painful, so I told S, never mind because I don't have the patience to wait and especially if this place sucks, I would really hate that and also would have a higher expectation for the sandwich. Months pass and I was at WV for work and I haven't ever worked in the WV area, so I was taking total advantage of their offerings. I picked a new place for lunch everyday, it was a moment and so I was trying to find a place and this place showed up on maps and soon I realized this was the same place that I wanted to check out months prior. I passed by and no line and no wait, I got seated a few minutes later at the bar and I ordered my food and the lady advised no customization and now I see the price has gone up. I originally saw it was $28 and now it is $34 - meanwhile this is a work lunch! Okay, I am not even at a restaurant that offers cloth napkins, but here I am and so I ordered only the sandwich and when I came, I thought the sandwich size was a bit of a joke for $34 dollars. You couldn't really dip the sandwich, otherwise you're just going to be wearing your lunch and for $34 bucks, I want to taste more than caramelized onions. I don't care for caramelized onions, but I'll tolerate it, but not if I am basically eating an onion sandwich. This is all that I tasted, not even the horseradish that people on here ranting about. I rather taste horseradish than onions. I think the reason why they don't do modification is because they don't want the sandwich to look sad when someone asks for no onion. Because you'll basically get a baquette for $34. From the looks of it, the price keeps inflating, but meanwhile I don't think anything has changed. Been here, done that, and yeah - not worth it and thank god, I didn't have to wait in line for it. Too hyped up for Onions! read more

Tried out viral sensation Salt Hanks on a brisk Saturday afternoon. As a French dip enthusiast this place was a must try. My friend and I ordered two combos which included a full French dip sandwich, a side of "fries", and a beverage. For NYC, the price point of $32 felt apt for the size of the meal. If you're considering trying this restaurant, ask yourself, "is any sandwich worth standing in line over an hour?". The restaurant staff did their best to keep things moving but for a weekend lunch you better have a charged phone and some headphones because you'll be there for a while. The sandwich was good, the meat was juicy and there was a generous serving of au jus. Consider asking for more horseradish if you like a little kick. Don't bother with the fries, they are not fries. The idea is to put them on the sandwich as a topping but it doesn't add much. Indoor seating is fine but not spectacular, a must if you're trying to eat the sandwich while it's still hot. Overall, a fun concept and a well executed sandwich. read more

I highly recommend Salt Hank's. We went on a Friday about 1 hour before it closed and we thought we were going to miss out...but the line actually wasn't THAT long and it went relatively quickly. The restaurant is pretty small but they have a good flow. It also helps that the menu is pretty straight forward. My sister and I split a meal (I recommend because the sandwich is huge). The bread is phenomenal!! The crunch with soft interior, and the flavor!! Whew!! The meat was tasty but not over seasoned but went well with the melty cheese, sauce, and caramelized onions. The fries are basically shaved potatoes. Really crunchy...almost like chips. I thought they were pretty good as well and complimented the sandwich. Lastly we got to try Brooklyn Best canned peach tea per recommendation of the cashier. Perrrffeecctt accompaniment to the meals It's worth the trip, worth the line in my opinion. 8.5/10 read more

So I joined the hype and arrived before opening, but still waited about an hour to get in. Still, the food lives up to the reputation. The French dip is huge, fresh, and incredibly flavorful - just be prepared for a mess! I skipped the fries and went with the coleslaw instead, which was a great call. It was tangy and crunchy, providing the perfect balance to the rich sandwich. I noticed most people couldn't finish their fries anyway because the portions are so big. Would I go again? Not sure - the food was amazing, but the wait time and the price tag are something to consider. read more

Definitely lived up to the hype!! While it wasn't the best sandwich I've had, it is THE french dip sandwich that I want when I crave it! It smelled amazing even before I unwrapped it. The meat was super tender, juicy, and onions well-caramelized. The horseradish came on a little too strong the first bite, but well-balanced as soon as I got to the onions on my second. While I wish it had just a tad more cheese and onions, I did enjoy the sandwich very much and dunked every bite in the flavorful au jus just to pack in more flavors. Lines were long but they do move and best part is that takeout is a separate line! They do sell out so be sure to get in line early! read more

Not sure if you wanna suffer for a shorter line but we (2) came on a cold rainy weekend and the line was about 30 mins long (shorter than the 1hr + from other reviews). One sandwich was not enough to share but two are too much for two people, ended up packing a half home. Was the sandwich good? Yes, good bread, good meat, a bit on the saltier side, good crunchy fries. Eat quick before the bottom bread gets soggy. Was it worth the 30 mins wait? Yes, any longer is questionable. Was it worth the ~$100 for 2 sandwiches, one order of fries and a coke? Absolutely not. read more

So we took it to go and I was a little sticker shocked by the $40 price tag. Gulp. They only have one sandwich (above) but now are offering a 2nd sandwich on Wednesdays (eggplant, I believe). To describe the sandwich - the meat: Thinly sliced, juicy prime rib from Pat LaFrieda. Toppings: Seven-hour caramelized onions, provolone cheese, and a chive-garlic-horseradish aioli. The bread: A crispy, crusty baguette from Frenchette Bakery. the dipping sauce: A rich, savory au jus. Crazy. Crazy.But we did it! And my daughter was happy! read more

I was planning on waiting to come here once the hype died down, but my friend and I decided to go on a free Saturday morning. Now I wish we would've come here as soon as they opened! This sandwich is so worth the hype. We got in line at 11AM, and there were about 20 people in line ahead of us. Overall, we waited for an hour total before being seated. We got the combo to share with the limeade, which was the perfect amount of food for two people. I'm not even a big beef person, but this sandwich has got to be one of the best sandwiches in nyc. Everything about it was perfection. The meat was so juicy and tender, the bread was nice and crunchy, and the caramelized onions added a sweetness to it. I was worried the horseradish aioli would be too strong, but I honestly didn't taste the horseradish at all. I left feeling full but not stuffed. The only complaint I have are the fries. They're not shoestring fries; they're not even fries. They just taste like fried sticks. They're also really hard to eat. You have to pick up the little sticks with your hands, so there's no good way to put ketchup on them. Definitely a skip! The limeade was really refreshing though. I'm still thinking about this sandwich and would happily wait an hour in line again. read more

Waited an hour for this yummy deliciousness. It was well worth the wait. The staff was so kind and we met the owner/chef who was personally thanking everyone for waiting. Inside is small counter and a few tables but service is quick. Meat was very flavorful, bread was super crunchy and garlic butter yum. I think it was worth the hype and I was happy that I was supporting small business. I'll be back. read more
