Sandwiches in SF that are worth the hype or underrated.
Map
The Renzo Special - prosciutto, hot coppa, fresh mozzarella, and sun dried tomatoes on soft French roll. Best $16 you will ever spend. I usually split this with someone because it's huge.
Molinari Delicatessen
The Lucca Combo - Mortadella, provolone, salami on dutch crunch with pepper sauce and garlic sauce - $10 - don't let the name fool you, these things are MASSIVE
Little Lucca
The 49er - corned beef, pastrami, brisket, white american cheese, cherry peppers, cole slaw, 1000 island, board sauce, on french roll. It sounds insane because it is. $23
