The real one is in Midtown. Home of the $3.50 banh mi. Cheap eats and won't be disappointed with the food. Service, parking, lines can be a pain but worth it.

I'm not going to get a lot of love for the cool kids for this, but the food is awesome, easy parking, and Sammy is so nice. This family has been around for 70 years. I'm Italian and this is my go to place.
