3 New Roast Beef Sandwiches I’d Eat Today
Sick of turkey? Me too. But you’ve still got to eat lunch today, so can we recommend… a roast beef sandwich? Here are 3 new ones that have surfaced in L.A. over the past few months.
Situated in the shadow of Brentwood’s branch of Lemonade, I probably wouldn’t have ever thought to eat at Roast if it wasn’t for this post on Unemployed Eater. Despite how good it sounds in theory (deli and meat market FTW!), in actuality it’s kind of a strange lunch place for the neighborhood; with an aesthetic that could only be described as bush league or DIY- depending on how generous you were feeling that day. In other words, don’t look for Roast to take too much business away from their neighbor anytime soon, or expand into some kind of local chain. That being said, their roast beef sandwich- which comes in slider or sandwich form- was surprisingly good. Perfectly rare, and deliciously tender and moist, it only gets better when you use their horseradish sauce and au jus. Not something I’d drive out of my way for, but it’s one of the better lunch options in Brentwood. The only downside? The french dip is $12. Roast, 147 S Barrington. Brentwood Village. 310-476-1100
