| - When told I was taking a trip to Pittsburgh, many family members and friends only gave me one piece of advice -- go to Primanti Bros!
On the evening that we did (a Friday), it was fairly busy; a long line out the door almost turned us away, but it didn't take too long for us to get a seat. We ended up getting a spot at the bar.
I really liked the style of the restaurant, and was so eager to try a sandwich for myself. I ended up ordering the Ham and Cheese, which arrived stuffed with cole slaw and french fries in addition to the meat. Holy cow. I'd seen photos of their sandwiches of course, but getting to have the real thing was quite the experience.
Normally food that size is overwhelming for me, but I dove right into that thing and devoured most of it. I was surprised with how well the sandwich itself stayed together, considering how much is pressed between two thick slices of bread.
We did have to wait a good while to get our check, which is my only real complaint, but I understand that it was a super busy Friday dinner. I would still highly recommend giving this place a try if you haven't been before, but maybe not too frequently for those who live in the area. I mean, a weekly diet of meat, fries, and cole slaw probably isn't that good for you. Sure is delicious though!
