The Classic LA Deli Power Rankings

"In operation since 1961, Mario’s is an old-school Italian deli in Glendale and it’s your best bet for giant, meat-stuffed sandwiches and hot plates in the neighborhood. If you don’t get there before 11:30am, be prepared to wait. But even if you get caught in line, this place is worth it. The Bad Boy Sub is their signature sandwich and it’s huge, with your choice of meat (get the pastrami), mustard, mayo, avocado, spicy peppers, and every other fixing available. Be sure to pick up some imported Italian olive oil on the way out." - brant cox, garrett snyder
