A long-time Arby’s on Gammon Road closed and turned into Sliced Deli in August. It’s not actually a deli; instead, it’s a reasonably priced sandwich shop that shares similarities with its predecessor.
For example, the drive-thru still exists, and the curly fries ($2.75 large order) here taste exactly like Arby’s version. Even the bread tastes the same.
The majority of the sandwiches are hot sandwiches. The fish filet sandwich ($3.99) sports a pretty sizable cod filet for its price. The deep-fried fish sort of resembles McDonald’s filet-o-fish, but it’s much meatier, a bit crunchier and more flavorful, plus it’s topped with a smear of tartar.
I found the smoked brisket sandwich ($4.99) to be satisfying. It’s got tender, fairly smoky brisket, gouda cheese and fried onion strings, and the somewhat sweet BBQ sauce complements the flavors.
I was pleasantly surprised by the pulled pork sandwich ($2.99) because it uses a Carolina (mustard-based) sauce. It’s actually quite good–the meat is super moist, and the bread does a good job of keeping its structure.
My only disappointment was the Philly cheesesteak ($4.99). The sandwich had barely any meat, and the green peppers and onions were under-cooked. Next time, I’ll try either the gyro ($4.49) or the buffalo chicken sandwich ($3.99).
The rest of the menu includes build-your-own sandwiches ($4.99), sides (e.g. mozzarella sticks) and two salads.
Sliced Deli is open every day for lunch, dinner and carryout.
In honor of National Sandwich Day, I thought I’d take a look at some of the nation’s most famous sandwiches, coincidentally all from the State of Pennsylvania.
In Pittsburgh–as well as in cities east of our state–you can find Primanti Bros. Its crown achievement is its “Almost Famous” sandwiches that are packed with cole slaw, tomatoes and french fries.
