By Coach A:
I consider myself to be an expert on the “meatball sando.” I could bore you with why I’m an expert - but that’s not the point.
Top 3 meatball sando’s in San Francisco:
# 3. Connecticut Yankee –17th and Connecticut St in Potrero Hill- aka the Mike Stivich - I suggest getting the sando with fries AND a side of the slaw. Add the slaw to the sando - oh man - it’s good. WARNING - this is a M E A L - don’t expect to run around after this one.
# 2. Mario’s Bohemian Cigar Store Cafe — Union and Columbus Ave in North Beach- aka - “Meatball focaccio” - Formerly ranked # 1 -As a former employee, I’ve served the sando and as the cook there, I’ve made the sando. It’s great and assuming the focaccio is from Liguria’s - you are in for a great sando. Eat at the bar on a sunny day with a cold Anchor Steam. Enjoy!
# 1. Angelina’s Cafe - California and 22nd Ave in the Outer Richmond — So you think meatball and you don’t think Outer Richmond but you should. Pannini style sando that is out of this world. Will leave you wanting a 2nd and while I haven’t downed 2 in one sitting yet, the operative word is YET.
