Mantao Sandwiches “Official” Opening is Today

It looks like Friday was a just a test run with a limited menu at the new Mantao Chinese Sandwiches (on 53rd btw. 2+3rd).  Today is their “Official Soft Opening” (which I’m guessing is code for “don’t blame us if everything isn’t perfect”.)  It opens at 11:30am and, you didn’t hear this from  me but, if you mention the super secret password “Ramones” you get 20% your order today only.  (Although technically I think that is for mailing list people only, so if you plan on using it be a sport and sign up for their mailing list.) Oh, and they’re also on twitter (natch.)

    I have been there several times and tried at least half the items on the menu by now. I wouldn’t recommend the egg sandwiches (not bad but not great), but the meat ones were all pretty good, or at least the filling was. The buns are not my kind of thing – a little to chewy and not a lot of flavor, so I’ve just been eating the fillings and tossing the buns. It doesn’t make for the best value but the flavor is pretty good. My braised pork was delicious. Spicy pork was also good. I like both of those a little better than the beef/kimchi and the mackerel, although those were good too. I also tried the beef pancake roll and it was really good. The service has always been very quick when I have been there. THe last time I was there I ate in and even though I did not order the combo box they gave me the slaw and shrimp chips.
