AI-generated summary

Get the . It's prime rib on Frenchette bread and a lot of people call it one of the best sandwiches they've had. Skip the , the common advice is that they're a gimmick and a waste of $7. The runs about $28 and there's a line, though you can order at the door for takeout and skip it. Plenty of people think it's overpriced, too sweet, and soggy.

  • replying to u/personaljournal325: Re. The bread, I truly believe we are in a crunch-demic. For whatever reason, whether it is tiktok influencer mics, maximalist food trends, or whatever, every new sandwich/bread related spot i have been to has been in a crispy crunchy war with each other. I get flamed hard every time I say this because people clearly love some crispy crunchy bread, but I guess we got to all speak our truth here. I want my philly chessesteak on a soft hoagie roll and I'm not goddamn sorry!

    I don’t think a French Dip should be on a super crunchy baguette. A proper French Dip’s bread compliments the meat’s tenderness. Fighting a hard crunch masks the tenderness of the meat.

  • Salt Hank’s is technically a French Dip but it’s made with prime rib and is one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had. It’s 34 dollars but worth every penny because it’s made with top quality ingredients.

  • replying to u/National_Relative_75: Salt Hanks is awful

    I don’t think it was awful but I don’t really understand the decision to go with the Frechette baguette. The hard, crusty bread overshadows the tender meat.

  • The price is *absolutely* too high, but credit where due—that was a GODDAMN good sandwich, and sizable.

  • The Frenchette bread, Pat Lafrieda prime rib, and caramelized onions are all insanely high quality, but the thing that sets it’s apart is the structural integrity. You can dip it over and over and not lose anything from inside the sandwich. It’s truly remarkable.
