Check out Parmanti Brother's downtown Pittsburgh

They have some of the best sandwiches in the country. Stacked a mile high with everything but the Kitchen sink.

Mmmmm I'd give my firstborn for some good beef or lamb pastrami

I'm jealous. Ever since watching Adam Richman on Man vs. Food Primanti's remains in my foodie dream. GBO

Photos?

In a side note, I'm not used to tons of stuff on sandwiches, but my wife and I had sandwiches at the Carnegie Deli once and we couldn't eat all of it- like cheese piled up an inch high on pastrami piled an inch and a half high. It was good, though!

One minor tip...get a saltier meat. Pastrami, etc. Some less flavorful meats will just blend in with the fries, slaw and thick bread.

Mine from yesterday

Went there last nite, 1/2 price Happy Hour-oh my! They played Rocky Top and all Vols were singing and clapping, great time.

I went about 6 years ago. They have them outside of Pittsburgh now (and chains around town), but the downtown original one is the place to go. It’s kinda dirty/greasy (think Gus’), but that’s part of the experience. And the mural on the wall of Clemente and other Pittsburgh sports legends is cool. Definitely get pastrami.

I'm pretty sure it's Primanti's, not Parmanti's. I believe they have several locations in Pittsburgh.
Never been to Pittsburgh although I did live not far from there several eons ago.
Had some great Philly Cheesesteak sandwiches in Philadelphia though a long time ago.
If Primanti's is the place that puts french fries on the sandwich, I'd pass on the fries - don't like fries, but I'm sure I'd enjoy the sandwich.

I had good pizza in New York once.

I was an over the road truck driver in a different life, and I fell in love with the Philly cheese steak sandwich. I have tried them at different venues around here, but none of them compare to the ones you get in Philly.

Now only if the school itself was half as welcoming as the rest of the city… still can’t believe their away team ticket locations

You have to cut him some slack on this one. A 3:51 AM post about a sandwich is surely a drunk post.

Same and I completely agree .

Same and I completely agree .

Man, I'd almost make the trip back there just for one of them.

In a 4 wheeler only now . I miss eating the best foods from different parts of the country but .. no more stress of permits , scales , construction and low overpasses . Lol

 

[mrredskin]

Don't get one at PNC park. It was terrible

 

[GrayWaterCanine]

Try their pretzel and fried zucchini.

 

[RollinVol]

They had one in Indy a few years ago. It was awesome
