Went to City Pork for lunch today

First time and it won't be the last. Food was delicious.
I had the cubano and ordered a side of potato salad. The sandwich was HUGE (could easily split with another person) and piled high with pulled pork, ham, and melted Swiss. Bread and butter pickles gave it a nice sweetness in contrast with the Dijon mustard.
The housemate chips weren't an after thought and were executed and seasoned well. The potato salad was also solid. Could have used some more salt and pepper, but a good side.
The interior was clean and the offerings in the deli case looked good. A smoked pig smell greets you when you walk into the door.
It was pretty busy and people were steadily coming in. Plates going out all looked good and the owner (young, thin, white guy) was walking around greeting and talking with customers.
And of course, inb4 Sysco

We go about twice a month... have been for the last 3 mths. No problems, good food. Dude who checks you out is a tad weird, but hey.... i didn't go to spend an hour with him so it isn't that big of a deal.
We went last week and got the brisket special. It was pretty damn good, brisket was juicey and had good smoke... I'd get that again in a heart beat.

I go fairly regularly but the special is sold out everytime I go. I
And I'm going at noon, not like 2 pm. Sandwiches are decent, but no Butcher. Not much creativity with them. Portions are legit though, no complaints there.

Last time I went we ordered the nachos, 2 sandwiches (Big Pork and New Yorker), wedge salad, and a bacon-cc cookie. I ate all of the nachos, 1 1/2 of the sandwiches, and all but a tiny bit of the cookie, plus I had 2 Swamp Pops. I definitely wouldn't call their sandwiches "huge" or big enough to share.

Ate here today for the first time. Got the Cubano and it was very good. Place was clean and had a nice vibe to it. Only complaint was the 8 oz diet cokes in the old school bottle. That's not enough drink for a sandwich that size with no refill!
I'll be back.
