Examples include the pastrami and mushroom sub (<span class=\"currency-sign\">$<\/span>8.99 for 6&#8243;, <span class=\"currency-sign\">$<\/span>10.99 for 12&#8243;) and the Hot Vegetarian ($7.99, $9.99), with peppers, onions, mushrooms and provolone.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m a sucker for Italian subs, and North Shore&#8217;s version ($8.99, $10.99) was unique in that it had bologna in it, in addition to salami, shredded lettuce, tomato, onions and vinaigrette. I haven&#8217;t had bologna in years, and it gave the delicious sandwich a nostalgic feel to it, if that makes sense.<\/p>\n<p>The other sub I tried was the steak bomb ($9.99, $11.99). The steak itself was dry and overloaded with pepper. The melty green peppers, onion and cheese saved this sandwich from being a disaster.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-9320\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/20240628_120447-300x231.jpg\" alt=\"North Shore\" width=\"300\" height=\"231\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/20240628_120447-300x231.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/20240628_120447-1024x788.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/20240628_120447-768x591.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/20240628_120447-1536x1182.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/20240628_120447.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Meanwhile, the roast beef sandwich ($8.49, $9.49, $10.99) was a messy delight. It was stacked with about 2&#8243; of roast beef (I measured it), which reminded me of the delis in New York. The beef was a bit bland, but that was a moot point thanks to the heap of cheese, mayo and BBQ sauce, which was tangy like Arby&#8217;s sauce.<\/p>\n<p>I also liked the French bread pizza ($3.49). I was thinking one order would come with two pieces, but I was pleasantly surprised with four. The pizza has a fresh tomato taste, and the bread was perfectly crunchy where it needed to be and soft in other parts.<\/p>\n<p>Specialty pizzas include the fajita (<span class=\"currency-sign\">$<\/span>12.49 for 12&#8243;, $19.49 for 16&#8243;) and the chicken alfredo (<span class=\"currency-sign\">$<\/span>12.49, <span class=\"currency-sign\">$<\/span>18.99).<\/p>\n<p>You also can find pasta dishes on the menu.\u00a0The veal in the veal parm ($14.99) was a little charred on the outside, but it didn&#8217;t negatively affect the gamy flavor. The pasta&#8211;you get your choice of spaghetti or penne&#8211;was light on marinara sauce and heavy on cheese, so much so that it wasn&#8217;t just laid on top of the veal but also incorporated into the pasta.<\/p>\n<p>North Shore Pizza and Subs is open for lunch and dinner Monday through Saturday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>North Shore Pizza and Subs brings East Coast pizza and subs to Monona.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":9320,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[233,119,205],"class_list":["post-9316","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-restaurant-reviews","tag-monona","tag-pizza","tag-subs"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9316","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=9316"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9316\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9322,"href":"https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9316\/revisions\/9322"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/9320"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=9316"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=9316"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eatdrinkmadison.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=9316"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
