The 25 Best Restaurants In Oakland - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"World Famous HotBoys should be synonymous with greatness—or, at the very least, their Nashville hot sandwiches should be. The former pop-up’s brick-and-mortar spot in Uptown Oakland (they also have an outpost in Sacramento and Walnut Creek), and their perfect, crispy sandwich is what we order when we want to feel spice, heat, and joy. You can choose from various heat levels that range from no spice to training wheels to painfully spicy. At one point, the Hot Hot sandwich required you to fill out a spice-tolerance questionnaire when you ordered. Serious sandwich stuff." - lani conway, julia chen 1
