Duck Tsangwich
Kathie H.

Such a cool place! Their peking duck sandwich was sooo yum, we scarfed it down even though it was big. There is an area with tables but no seating. Service was fast.

Truly just a board on the sidewalk to help me recognize that I had made it to, well, Sandwich board. I got the Duck. The Duck inside was nice and juicy, it's served with a pineapple bun, and for me it tethered on a little too sweet, which got to be a little overwhelming . But all the individual components are insane, and definitely worth coming back and picking up some new things off their menu.

The mala breakfast wrap was are so good! There was quite a line and wait on a Saturday afternoon, but worth the wait for the wrap. My friends got their sandwiches and unfortunately we weren't big fans because the bun is sweet. But I'll def be back to try the other wraps

Absolutely amazing sandwiches. Their menu is a trip around the world and I absolutely love that about them. In the same place you can get a Malaysian breakfast roti roll and a Cuban sandwich or a Carribean coco bread packed with fish and plantains. The best part is it's all actually GOOD with flavors I've tried before but not in such a fun untraditional form. Visiting was such a pleasant surprise and I will be back without a doubt. The dining area has two large tables that can fit four to six people and then there's a couple very narrow tables against the wall that can fit maybe four people. It's not the largest space but it's good enough. There's also some outdoor seating. If you're vegetarian they can sub the meats for a hashbrown patty. Can't wait to see what else they cook up!

Duck Tsangwich
Katrina W.

I came here because I really wanted to try the Duck Tsangwich but this was unfortunately a miss for me. I didn't mind the sweetness and the flavors that some others had mentioned. What bothered me was how dry the duck AND the bread were. The bread was so airy and dry (nothing like a true buoluo bao. I also felt like the lettuce and other ingredients did not look fresh at all. Overall, I think the idea is great and could be amazing but just wasn't executed well here.

This was my favorite out of all the restaurants I visited in NYC this time around! I was attracted by the pineapple bun sandwich (the "Duck Tsangwich")--my gut feeling said it would be gimmicky, but I've really been craving pineapple buns these days so I wanted to give it a try anyway and I AM SO GLAD I DID! The Duck Tsangwich ended up being so freaking good that I ordered a SECOND sandwich, and THAT was so good that I ordered a DESSERT, and the DESSERT was so good that I ordered ANOTHER DESSERT (that final dessert was the only thing I didn't really like from here). It was like dominoes of pure deliciousness. The first sandwich was NOT gimmicky and actually really delicious. The Cantonese-style duck inside had that super authentic sweetness & juiciness (and of course greasiness) to it and was so tender and well cooked. And don't get me started on the pineapple bun--as soon as I bit into it I actually knew I had to ask where tf they get these pineapple buns from because it was so soft and the crumble top was delicious. My only gripe with this sandwich is that Cantonese-style duck is also very sweet, so this kind of overwhelmed the lighter flavor of the crackle top which is my favorite part of the pineapple bun. But this complaint is trivial compared to the degree of deliciousness that is this sandwich as a whole. I think I'd just be really excited if they came out with a more savory sandwich that used the pineapple bun! The second sandwich I got was the Mala Tsangwich, which also ended up being amazing. I might have even liked it better than the Duck Tsangwich but there's definitely more to write about the Duck one because it's so unique. Beautiful fry on the chicken and amazing mala sauce, and though not quite true to the Sichuanese mala flavor, was definitely reminiscent of it. This review is already a fat shill post but unfortunately I have to get started on the dessert: two boluo bao cookies used to make an ice cream sandwich. LET ME TELL YOU! BO LUO BAO COOKIES ARE A 400IQ INVENTION. ABSOLUTELY REVOLUTIONARY. I actually want to buy like 100 of these cookies and have them at my wedding but unfortunately I didn't do that. Wow. Just amazing. It has a similar texture to Chinese almond cookies (a little harder and more crumbly, so if you're a soft cookie fan you might not like it much) and perfectly captures the boluobao texture/flavor on top. Absolutely incredible. Also, the guy who runs the shop is super nice. I kept coming back to make new orders so he stored my desserts in the freezer for me so they'd be fresh to eat when I finished my sandwiches! TL;DR get one of the tsangwiches (or both like me) and the boluobao cookie ice cream sandwich. This place was a revolution for my taste buds.

Storefront
Matthew W.

It's a tiny storefront specializing in Asian fusion sandwiches. Prices are quite good - between $12-16 for a sandwich. Judging from the menu, I had high hopes and was slightly disappointed. I ordered the Mala Tsangwich, and while the presentation was superb, the flavor was lacking and bland. The sandwich barely had any mala spice and the chicken was too dry for my taste. Way too mild, and I sorta got bored of eating it halfway through. Right now, I can't recommend the Sandwich Board, but I'd love to come back and get proven wrong with another sandwich.

Egg Our Sando
Brooke K.

I've been wanting to try this place for a while, and today I was specifically craving an egg sandwich, so when I saw it on the menu, I had to go. Now, I'll start by saying I make a pretty good egg salad sandwich myself. I've used milk bread and Kewpie mayo before, so I know how a proper Japanese-style sando should taste. Traditionally, it's made by mixing soft-boiled and hard-boiled eggs for a specific texture and richness, but unfortunately, this version missed the mark. I'm sure the other sandwiches here are great, but this one just wasn't it. The filling was overly creamy, more like a regular mayo-based egg salad, and the flavor wasn't quite right for a proper sando. I also couldn't tell if they used milk bread or brioche, either way, the bread didn't have the right texture or taste. I want to be back to try something else, but I'd skip the egg sandwich. I would have tried to swap it out for something else, but I had somewhere to be.

Food was ok had clam, and duck before it ok nothing special, 1.5/3. Service was fine no complaints 1/1. Ambiance was ok, .5/.5. No extra point 0/.5.

Tsangwich with duck
Sally V.

This is a super tiny takeout storefront in Chinatown. You order at the window, they give you a number, and call it when your food is ready. I got the tsangwich with peking duck. It comes on a bolo bao which is one of my favorite things ever so I was very excited. My sandwich came out within like 10-15 minutes and I went to the park nearby to eat it. Unfortunately the bread was already a little soggy. But it was still delicious! I'd love to come back and try other sandwiches here.

Thai crab roll special
Danielle F.

I work about a 15 minute walk away from the sandwich board and I make a point to try the weekly special as often as possible. My colleagues and I love the mala chicken tsangwich. They are both loyalists to the tsangwich and get it every week. One is vegetarian and substituted the chicken with a hash brown every time and loves it although I'm not fully convinced of its nutritional equivalence. Of the sandwiches I tried I quite liked the mala tsangwich and the lockhardt mercado. For me the meatball parm special was decent and the vodka dip was a great pairing. Misses for me have been the duck tsangwich (the pineapple bun was way too sweet for my tastes), Thai crab roll (good amount of crab but a lot of lettuce and not much flavor - more of a bitter taste), taverna shrimp wrap (very soupy from the vinegairette that dissolved the bottom of the wrap). However I will still continuing trying the specials! After all there's a reason they're not on the permanent menu. I love trying out all these experiments. Keeps life interesting. The guys are super nice and last time passed out soup to everyone dining in and waiting in line. They just finished up renovation on their indoor seating and it's quaint. Definitely come by and try a sandwich!

Steak & Potatoes
Richie R.

A takeout only spot, with a great selection on the menu. Having a weekly speciality sandwich it's always interesting to see what new combination they're going to come out with. I got the steak and potato's and it was great just thinking about it makes my mouth water as the steak was juicy and the combination of favors in the sandwich were delicious. I can't wait to come back and slowly eat the whole menu lol

Mala Chicken Tsangwich
Gab G.

Came for lunch on a weekday around 1 PM and there was a short line that moved fast. They operate out of a tiny window / it's takeout only, but they'll give you a tray if you use the chairs out front. Mala tsangwich (crispy chicken) was amazing. Definitely will be back for more!

((4.5 stars)) Sunny…read moreand Annie's is very much a 24/7 neighborhood gem of a corner store and deli. it's packed with packaged foods--candy, chips, cookies, ice cream, soft drinks, beer, and a lot more plus the deli counter serves ups an endless list of creative sandwiches. i am not going to say this place is cramped but it kinda is. for example, if people stand in the wrong areas of the store, it will cause a complete standstill of a traffic jam in the store. my advice: order from the deli (and stand somewhere people aren't trying to get to) or grab whatever you need, pay, and leave. this place is not a place to linger. keep it moving. anyway, the obvious draw of Sunny & Annie's is the endless list of sandwiches that are handwritten cards that are stuck outside glass of the deli counter. there is literally something for the pickiest eaters--from hot sandwiches, cold sandwiches, wraps, and more. some sandwiches are named celebrities, politicians, etc. i have ordered a bunch of different sandwiches and have not made it through much of the menu. you can also create your own Frankenstein monster of a sandwich. while the sandwiches are a big part of the draw, the insane amount of snack foods crammed into the store is quite remarkable from the large stand of Doritos, Takis, Cheetos and other popular branded snack foods in the front to the separate stand of Wise snacks to an entire back corner of the store filled with all kinds of chips, popcorn, etc. imo, Sunny's has the freshest-tasting Smartfood Cheddar Popcorn. i know an insane take consider it's a packaged popcorn snack from a megacorp (PepsiCo), but i'll die on this hill. maybe it's cause Sunny's sells a lot of Smartfood popcorn so it gets refreshed often, maybe they have a secret in/pipelinbe from the factory, or it's just magic/alchemy. i don't know, but the Smartfood Cheddar Popcorn never tastes stale-ish like it does at grocery stores, the bags never feel deflated because they have been on shelf long, and the popcorn never has that soft mouthy feel but still has the crunch to it. maybe it's just me, but Sunny's serves a great list of sandwiches...AND the freshest Smartfood Cheddar Popcorn. beyond the snacks, the service from the deli to cashier is upbeat and friendly. in all seriousness, Sunny and Annie's is an Avenue B institution at this point and remains a charming family-owned store--and is NOT a sterile modern clone of a neighborhood business.

Huge sandwiches. Would recommend eating on a roll vs a wrap only because a wrap falls apart more…read moreeasily. Lots of flavors going on. Expected there to be a more accurate pho-palette, but the fusion is fun and appetizing nonetheless.

Today, I got a PISILLO panini with ciabatta bread and it was so damn big! I had half of it for lunch and the other half will be saved for my dinner! This panini was just too long and big. I had to open my mouth really wide to take bites out of the big panini and it was annoying. It tasted good though! I love the balsamic dressing, arugula, tomatoes, and bufula mozz cheese the most out of the whole sandwich! The dressing made it really good and soften the ciabatta bread for easier chewing. My poor mouth and teeth! The whole panini cost $22.21 including tax in cash. There was an atm machine by the entrance in case you don't have cash. The whole place was very cozy and tight knit chairs and tables on both sides of the restaurant. The staff was very fast and I got my panini in not time. I did not have to wait that long. I was just amazed at the size of the ciabatta bread. They had many different types of bread that I can try next time like the focaccia, sfilatino, and semolina bread that looked really good behind the display glass. They got 35 different types of panini sandwiches for you to choose from. Most of them contain meat and there are some vegetarian options that are not so pricey. I will try those next time!

Compared to Counter Service or the other fast casual sandwich places, Sandwell's are larger, though they tend to stick to chicken and turkey (vs. beef or pork.). The service is also very friendly.

They call it the "Ross sandwich" as a homage to the Friends tv show where one episode features a Thanksgiving sandwich Monica had made for Ross that got eaten by someone else. There is also a "Rachel sandwich" but I'm not sure the origin of that one. The sandwich comes sliced in half and it's very easy to eat (you won't have stuff falling out). There are a handful of tables indoors and outdoors which is great since you can enjoy your warm sandwich immediately. I looooved the Ross sandwich--it came with turkey, cranberry sauce, stuffing all in a delicious semolina sub roll. I also got a bottle of the ginger lemonade which was good. We ordered the pesto chicken salad as well which was alright, but I definitely preferred the sandwich. I wanted to order another one immediately!

If you want a sandwich that earns your loyalty over decades, Parisi Bakery & Deli is that place…read more I've been eating sandwiches here for as long as I can remember, and the remarkable thing is how nothing has slipped--not the quality, not the care, not the magic. Every visit reminds you why Parisi has survived since 1903 while trends and neighbors came and went. Let's talk about The Dennis--the undisputed star and a true signature sandwich. This thing is a monster, built on Parisi's legendary fresh-baked bread that somehow stays crisp, chewy, and perfect no matter how much goodness gets piled inside. You get a crispy breaded chicken cutlet layered with thin-sliced prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, sliced tomatoes, and (if you know what you're doing) roasted red peppers. It's all brought together with their house balsamic blend and basil herb spread/pesto--bright, savory, and completely addictive. I cannot confirm or deny that the sandwich is named after me, but I can confirm it's flawless. Pro tips: * Cash only, old-school rules apply. * Come hungry or plan ahead--this sandwich is big enough to share or save half for later, and it still eats beautifully round two. * Tip the sandwich makers. These folks are artists, and the tip box deserves some love. Beyond the food, Parisi is living New York history. From its origins as an Italian bakery on Mott Street, to feeding generations of locals, to being famously beloved by Frank Sinatra (yes, the bread was shipped to California), this place is woven into the fabric of Little Italy/Nolita. Legends like De Niro and Scorsese are fans, and you can still feel that old-world soul--right down to the original brick oven relic resting in the basement. Parisi isn't just a deli. It's continuity. It's tradition. It's proof that when you do one thing incredibly well for over a century, people keep coming back. And once you've had The Dennis, you will too.

Are you f'n kidding? Wow. blown away. Best sandwich I've had in Manhattan!…read more Get the Dennis. It's everything you want in your life. See my review on IG or TikTok @wouldmattlikeit
