Badamo Family Sandwich Shop & Italian Grocery 🇮🇹🥪📍1511 Potomac Ave. Pittsburgh, PA 15216 (right next door to Badamo’s Pizza) 🍕
These were some of the best sandwiches we’ve had in a loooooooong time. Here’s what we ordered:
🍝 THE HEARTBEAT: meatball, mozzarella, pecorino, red sauce, basil oil. EASILY the best meatball sandwich I’ve ever had. I wish I filmed Jourdan’s first bite reaction. Pure bliss 🤣
🇮🇹 THE REGINA (Italian Combo #1): mortadella, hot capicollo, Genoa salami, sweet sopressata, fresh mozzarella, tomato, lettuce, onion, spices, oil, and vinegar. Top contender for best Italian around in my personal opinion.
🦃 THE BETTY: house baked sea salt focaccia, roasted turkey fresh mozzarella, basil, pesto aïoli, slow roasted tomatoes, arugula, EVOO drizzle. That house made focaccia is so perfect and fluffy. I wasn’t expecting to love this one as much as I did.
It’s worth noting that all of these sandwiches are made on Badamo’s house made bread (which is PHENOMENAL by the way). There is no seating inside of the sandwich shop, however you can take your sandwiches over to the pizza shop next door and dine in there if there are tables available. If not, you’ll have to take them home or wherever else, (just an FYI before you go). Oh AND they sell bottles of their house made ranch!!!!
Badamo Family - we can’t wait to stop by again REAL SOON. We ❤️ you!!!
