After a few friends raved to me about Sea Salt's new sandwich counter, I finally tried the Minnehaha Falls eatery's foray into making food from the turf instead of the surf.
What to expect: A rotating menu of roughly a dozen sandwiches that come to exactly $15 after tax and a service charge. There was no line at a time when the wait for the main Sea Salt counter was about 20 minutes.
What we got The Uncle Harry, which is sliced brisket sausage, pimento cheese, sweet pepper slaw, arugula, bacon habanero jam, and hot honey.
- We also got the Lil T, which includes roast beef, Mediterranean ranch, provolone cheese, pickled red onion, arugula, and balsamic glaze.
The verdict: Three out of four stars. Both of our sandwiches were on baguettes that were a little too tough — even in the middle — for our liking. But they were stuffed with fantastic ingredients and a good blend of flavors.
- We liked the Lil T more than the Uncle Harry.
