"What makes Layers stand out among all the city’s sandwich shops is the uncommon amount of care the team takes with everything. The sandwiches seem composed, and are full of little delightful twists: a grilled cheese with not just jalapeños but dates; a riff on a banh mi that subs Fra’Mani mortadella for the usual pork. These are experiments that advance the field of sandwich science." - Harry Cheadle
