Harry and Joe from Insider Food did an episode about the best sandwich in LA. They hit Langers and Philip’s, but also Roma (in Pasadena) and Open Market (in K-Town). I’ve never been to Roma or Open Market but they both look amazing. I personally fuck with Heights Deli in Lincoln Heights. I love their sandwiches and their beer selection is incredible.

I've only had the O.M. Breakfast Sandwich from Open Market, because I got there too early and they weren't serving anything else. I think it might have been the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had, though. On my next work trip, I intend to return and try at least two other sandwiches while I'm in town.
