There’s a reason this no-frills deli turns into an absolutely packed lunch counter around 11 or so each morning: their Butcher’s sandwiches pack a serious punch. The USDA meat sliced to order served on a perfect roll makes every sandwich on the menu a tasty belly filler, but Frank’s Famous Italian is the reason to make the trip. Hot ham, cotto salami and pepperoni are piled high and topped with thinly sliced provolone and Italian dressing plus a choice of veggies. It’s the type of sandwich that makes us all wish we had a little Italian heritage.
