Insanely good sandwich shop tucked away into the wall. The chef put so much care and effort into the sandwich, it really showed. The time and attention to detail making each sandwich was what really impressed me. The food really just felt like it was made with love.
It's a super small store with a wonderful smell and the freshest food. We ordered the reuben, which was gigantic in size, and was appetizing to not only the mouth but the eyes as well. It was hot, with soft pillowy bread and a crispy exterior, with lots and lots of pastrami, being super generous with the ingredients.

Where Taste Meets Friendly Service
A few days ago, I was walking by Le Sandwich, and I noticed them for the first time in the four years they've been in business! That should say something about my attention to my surroundings! I walked in to see what they offer. I ended up having a very friendly chat with the owner, Elias (Eli-S). He is a personable man and shared everything I needed to know, making me want to return and try one of his popular sandwiches. I say "popular" because while I was there, neighbor after neighbor walked in to place an order, and they all seemed to be repeat customers. Anyhow, I got myself a drip coffee and, as I walked out, made a mental note to be back after the Thanksgiving holiday.
Today, I went back and asked Elias for his personal favorite sandwich. He obliged me, and I asked him which one it was when he handed me the hefty sandwich. He replied, "You won't find it on the menu!"
I hurried home with the sandwich and took my first bite. It was delicious! The roasted chicken breast strips were cooked perfectly, juicy, and flavorful. The pesto sauce enhanced the taste, and the bread was toasted, thin, and hollowed out, holding everything together nicely! The sandwich had more than chicken and pesto sauce, but I was too hungry to slow down and analyze it!
Le Sandwich has a couple of tables outside where, on a nice day, one can sit and enjoy their meal. They also have a few stools at a counter facing the window. You can get your sandwich to go, as I did, or eat it there before it gets cold!
In addition to sandwiches, Le Sandwich offers a variety of other items, including salads, and pastries. It also has a selection of beverages, from coffee and tea to fresh juices. The prices are reasonable, and the portions are generous. Le Sandwich is open from 9 AM to 3 PM every day except Sunday when it is closed.
I highly recommend giving Le Sandwich a try. You won't be disappointed if you're in the mood for a quick bite or a leisurely meal.

We were starving after a swim at Joe DiMaggio Pool (around the corner) so opted to run in an get a bite here.
This isn’t a fast food establishment so expect to wait a bit, as business for pick up, take out and dine outside was brisk at lunch hour and the owner, who will prepare your gastromic delight while you wait is a genie.
A clever creative and warm person who greats the regulars and asks about the fam. Old World hospitality and New World culinary sensibilities. Fresh ingredients, a varied menu that includes meat, poultry, fish and various veggie/vegan options.
I highly recommend the Viking. A delicious and creative take on traditional lox and bagel. The sandwich was large, lotsa salmon, delicious and satisfying.
There’s a huge variety of beverages on hand in the self serve fridge, old fashioned soda water with quinine! When do you see that anymore?
Le Sandwich is a tiny spot but has a big heart for the community it seems and is definitely worth stopping in for a bite whenever I’m in North Beach.
Parking: Parking was pretty tight at lunch hour, one of us stayed in the car while the other ran in. Otherwise, plan on walking just a bit, WORTH IT!

This is my favorite sandwich shop in SF. I love the turkey and cranberry sauce #2 sandwich the most. The owner is super cool and will make you feel welcome. The place is very cute but a bit small so if you wanted to eat there, there are only a few spots. But it's perfect for grab and go! I wish it was open right now, because I am craving it :D

Le Sandwich was a great stop to kick off a day of exploring San Francisco. The cashier greeted us with a huge smile and was incredibly warm and welcoming, even checking in to ask how our meal was. We ordered the breakfast sandwich with bacon, and it was exactly what I needed to fuel up for the day. Simple, tasty, and satisfying—definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area and looking for a quick, delicious bite.
Sandwiches were delicious!! Fresh ingredients, many options and fablous combinations. Fantastic small sandwich shop.

I took home a tuna sandwich and was delicious. The crunchiness of the toast combined with the delicate flavor of the tuna, avocado, lettuce, and tomato, makes it an enjoyable eating experience...Thank you Chef

I am a Northbeach local and have eaten here at least 200 times over the years. We are so fortunate to have chef Elias in our neighborhood. His sandwiches show his love of the craft.
