  Steak & Kimcheese

  Golden Banh Mi

  2648 S Parker Rd #1, Aurora, CO 80014, USA

  The Steak & Kimcheese is a cultural mash-up that results in a sandwich like no other: Korean bulgogi-style marinated steak is sautéed with umami-packed kimchi and cheese; it comes on a freshly baked baguette that’s soft inside but firm enough outside to stand up to all the fillings.

  The American Wit

  Little Arthur's Hoagies

  205 E 7th Ave, Denver, CO 80203, USA

  Though there are several on offer, the best place to start is the classic American Wit cheesesteak with shaved Angus beef, fried onions and Cooper Sharp American Cheese on a house-made sesame roll. It’s $20 but well worth the cost, and definitely big enough to share.

  The Original

  The Porchetta House

  1510 N Humboldt St, Denver, CO 80218, USA

  AJ Paloni launched this all-porchetta, all-the-time spot in the Spices Cafe space in the spring of 2023, and more than two years later, we’re still obsessed.

  The Lee

  Congress Park Market

  2620 E 12th Ave, Denver, CO 80206, USA

  The Lee is the result of a collaboration with Uncle and Hop Alley owner Tommy Lee; it includes succulent braised beef brisket, arugula, white onions, red wine sesame mayo and provolone on a not-too-crunchy baguette. The kicker that really puts it over the top is the Sichuan peppercorn dipping broth that comes alongside.

  Jambon Beurre

  GetRight's

  6985 W 38th Ave #101, Wheat Ridge, CO 80033, USA

  The French would argue that the jambon beurre is the best sandwich and if so, we would argue that the best version you can get in the metro area is at Get Right’s. This small bakery does a lot, dishing up excellent pastries, pizza and bread.
