The Salty General

Update: went back and had the Mortadella.. did not disappoint! This is a hidden gem that must be tried! Just awesome. Had the Calabrese and the roast beef. The sandwiches are stuffed with meat but the bread is outstanding. Slightly hard crust and soft inside. Highly recommend.

Perfectly scrumptious!!! I got 3 sandwiches; Mortadella Fritto, Cubano, and Calabrese. The Mortadella Fritto sandwich has a perfect ratio between bread, meat, and vegetables which creates a perfect texture with its well seasoned flavors in each bite and that sneaky crunchy texture of salt & vinegar chips in the mixture made it very special. So scrumptious! The Cubano sandwich has the right amount of mustard and meat but what I enjoyed the most was the bread! The carefully pressed on the griddle to create that perfect crust made this sandwich to be craved for! The Calabrese sandwich would be my everyday go-to one. The tomatoes, red onions, and lettuce made it refreshing and the good quality cold cuts were very delicious. And on top of all these awesome sandwiches, the salted brownie was a nice treat to finish up the meal — big meal! Lol But what made everything very special about this place is the friendly service. 💖 I will be back here again! Maybe I will get to try Bahn Mi and Focaccia sandwiches here next time! Update: I had my leftover Calabrese sandwich for lunch yesterday. It was 2 days old and sat in my fridge. So the bread was a bit soggy and the lettuce was a little wilted as expected but what I didn’t expect was I kept saying how delicious it was while chomping it down with joy. Yes, it was indeed a very delicious sandwich even it was 2 days old!

Perfect spot for a quick bite after touring Newport! Calabrese was delish! Brownie with sea salt was out of this world!

Wow wow wow this is a fantastic slice of heaven. I ordered two of the Mortadella sandwiches. I never take time to write reviews but stopped eating mid sandwich to write this because it's so special. The people are so kind the quality and flavor is top notch. Thank you so much for the work you do I appreciate it and this was the highlight of my weekend!!

I recently tried their Sprout with Avocado sandwich, and it exceeded all expectations. Served on perfectly toasted multigrain bread, this sandwich is a masterful combination of fresh, high-quality ingredients. The creamy avocado is the star, providing a rich, satisfying base that pairs beautifully with the crisp cucumber, juicy tomato, and tangy pickled red onion. The herb aioli, clearly crafted with care, adds a layer of depth that ties all the flavors together, while the cheddar cheese gives just the right amount of sharpness. What really makes this sandwich special is its balance. The textures work together harmoniously, from the softness of the avocado to the crunch of the vegetables and the hearty bite of the multigrain bread. Every element is thoughtfully chosen and expertly prepared, reflecting the owner’s commitment to offering something truly exceptional. The shop itself is as inviting as the food, with a cozy, unpretentious vibe that makes you want to stay and chat. The owner’s warmth and attention to detail ensure that every customer feels valued, turning a simple sandwich into a memorable experience.

The sandwiches here are so good! Super fresh ingredients, and you can tell they care about quality. I got the sprouts sandwich and it was to so delicious. Highly recommend!

Great local sandwich shop. The service in the atmosphere were great and was above expected. Food was very delicious and good would go back again if I was in the area. Unfortunately, they were all out of the brownies.

I heard about this place from people at my work. I was hungry and on my way to work and figured I’d call in a sandwich. The menu had to many good options to choose from so I called with two sandwiches I had in mind and told them to surprise me. They gave me their roast beef sandwich called “The Roast”. It was phenomenal 11/10. All the ingredients were fresh and perfect. I’ll absolutely be going again!
