Ralph's part of the family is Ralph's on the Park, Mr. B's Bistro, Bacco, Redfish Grill. Not the Brennan's on Bourbon. They have filled the law reporters the last few years with their internacine warfare over who holds the right to use the name. There is not a sandwich in NYC that can top a roast beef at Parkway Bakery, swiss cheese, mayo, lettuce, gravy........... Watch the small talk at lunch.

That is sort of unique but if that does not count as sandwich, then the cubano from Margon. I say Kati Roll if that counts as a sandwich.

(The flavor combination is somehow reminiscent of sweet Pennsylvania Dutch ring bologna on a substantial wheat loaf.) They have excellent coffee as well. The counter space is fairly minimal though. AQ Cafe also has sandwiches and meatballs, but no meatball sandwiches. Go figure. (Have their crazy, delicious soup instead--ie Cauliflower with chicken salad, in it? It somehow works . . .)

Even though it's outside of Midtown Lunch territory (again geographically and pricewise), there is the best deal in the city, possibly in the country. Jean-Georges lunch for $30. you can usually get a table at noon for 2 people. Can't beat it. One more thought.

It is quintissentially New York, unbelievably tasty, and has more fat than anyone needs in a week. If you are committed to staying in Midtown I would go schwarma pita from Azuri.
