Best Roast Beef Sandwich
O'Connell's Pub
When you're in need of a roast beef sandwich right this instant, no one can fault you for opting for the eminently reliable and tasty Lion's Choice. But when you've got a bit more time to invest, it's got to be O'Connell's Pub. Yeah, you might have to wait for a table if you arrive during the lunch or dinner rush, but once seated you can linger as long as you like. We've heard tell of folks who've stepped into this dimly lit, atmosphere-oozing pub, never to be seen outside again. At five bucks (two bits extra if you want yours au jus), O'Connell's roast beef sandwich is a carnivore's dream. Ask for yours rare -- if you don't take your roast beef rare, you probably ought to be ordering something else, homie.
