  1. Devil’s Dill - SE Portland

  1. Bacchi’s Italian Delicatessen

Yelp/Kari B.

Yelp A small tight-knit Italian spot that’s relatively new in the Rose City neighborhood, but also a place that people cannot stop talking about. Creating the ideal, traditional Italian sub is an art, and if you’re looking for just that, this is the spot.

  1. Grand Central Bakery - Multiple Locations

Yelp/Connie C.

Yelp/Grand Central Baking Company The key to constructing the perfect sandwich really starts with the bread.
