John Montague, the Earl of Sandwich was such a rapacious gambler that he would sit at the gaming table for hours without meals.\u00a0 During one particular marathon gambling session, he dispatched his manservants to get him two slices of bread, meat and cheese.\u00a0 So as not to get his cards greasy, he put the meat and cheese in between the bread slices.\u00a0 Voila, the birth of the sandwich, officially named for him in 1762.\u00a0 You can literally put anything on a sandwich, but only the best ingredients dress the sandwiches below, hence the best sandwiches in Albuquerque. By clicking on the name of the restaurant for which you wish to know my opinion, you will be magically transported directly to my review of that restaurant. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Sandwich<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\nRestaurant<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\nWhat Makes This Sandwich Special <\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Southwestern Grilled Cheese<\/span><\/td>\nMucho Gourmet Sandwich Shop<\/span><\/a> (Santa Fe)<\/span><\/span><\/td>\nNamed the best sandwich in New Mexico by Food Network Magazine, it’s just one of many outstanding sandwiches in a family-owned and operated shop which specializes in sandwiches, service and soup.
\n<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Duke City Ruben<\/span><\/td>\nBocadillos Slow Roasted: A Sandwich Shop <\/span><\/a>(Albuquerque)<\/span><\/span><\/td>\nThe very best Ruben sandwich in Albuquerque and no other Ruben is even close.\u00a0 The corned beef is slow roasted for twelve hours.\u00a0 The quality shows in every single bite.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Torta De Barbacoa
\n<\/span><\/td>\n		Elotes Del Rancho<\/a> (Rio Rancho)
\n<\/span><\/span><\/td>\n		This life-altering sandwich is so good it’s hard to believe it comes from a mobile food kitchen.\u00a0 It’s the very best torta I’ve ever had, so good I dream about it.
\n<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Banh Mi<\/span><\/td>\nCoda Bakery<\/a>\u00a0(Albuquerque)<\/span><\/span><\/td>\nEssentially a Vietnamese po\u2019 boy on a French baguette, this is Albuquerque’s best bargain sandwich, one loaded with ingredients and packed with flavor for a price anyone can afford.
\n<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Proscuitto Egg Sandwich\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\nCounter Culture Cafe <\/a>(Santa Fe)
\n<\/span><\/td>\n		Breakfast is served until 5PM which means you can sleep late and still get New Mexico’s best breakfast sandwich.\u00a0 You may forever swear off Egg McMuffins for the Counter Culture’s waker-upper sandwich.
\n<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
New Mexico Po’ Boy<\/span><\/td>\nTia Betty Blues <\/span><\/a>(Albuquerque)<\/span><\/span><\/td>\nCarne adovada, cheese, pickled jalape\u00f1os and Fritos corn chips on a sandwich! \u00a0Why didn’t anyone think of this sooner? \u00a0 This isn’t a sandwich; it’s a revelation in deliciousness!<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Grilled Vegetable Ciabatta<\/span><\/td>\nCafe Bella <\/span><\/a>(Rio Rancho)<\/span><\/span><\/td>\nChef Michael Gonzales is a stickler for freshness and flavor. \u00a0grilled garden vegetables, fluffy egg, Parmesan cheese and organic greens on a Ciabbata roll with sun-dried tomato cream cheese make this a sandwich even carnivores will love.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Philly Cheesesteak \u201cWhiz Wit\u201d<\/span><\/td>\nPhilly Steaks <\/a>(Albuquerque)
\n<\/span><\/span><\/td>\n		Philadelphia transplants, brothers Jim and Joe Lelii have brought the City of Brotherly Love’s fabled Philly Cheesesteak to Albuquerque.\u00a0 Call it the Philadelphia sandwich Duke City diners love.\u00a0 It’s a behemoth brothers can share.
\n<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\u00a0Reuben<\/span><\/td>\n\u00a02G’s Bistro <\/a>(Albuquerque)
\n<\/span><\/span><\/td>\n		There are at least five transformative Reuben sandwiches across the Duke City.\u00a0 This is one of the very best with slow-roasted corned beef made on the premises.\u00a0 You’ll enjoy it best in the shady patio in back.
\n<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Rail Runner Reuben
\n<\/span><\/td>\n		The Farmacy (<\/a>Albuquerque)
\n<\/span><\/span><\/td>\n		If you haven’t visited the Sawmill District recently, you may be in for a surprise.\u00a0\u00a0 This up and coming neighborhood boasts one of the best smallest in one of the smallest restaurant spaces in town.\u00a0 You can’t call this Reuben small, however.\u00a0 It’s large in size and even larger in flavor.
