"For a neighborhood flush with sandwich places, North Beach seriously lacks breakfast sandwich options. Enter Le Sandwich, a one-man-show for breakfast and lunch until 3 p.m. Everything at Le Sandwich is made to order, piled high, and accompanied by the friendly banter of Columbus Street’s favorite sandwich chef, Elias. When Elias can’t make it to work, Le Sandwich isn’t open. So call ahead or peek down the block and see if he’s open when the line for Bodega’s breakfast burrito is moving slow." - Matt Tillquist
