After driving by countless times, seeing the food truck at almost every festival, and watching people all over instagram hit this place up, I figured it was my turn to try Marty's Meats aka Marty's On Park.

LOCATION: 703 Park Ave, Rochester, NY 14607

Marty's has a great selection of sandwiches that all sound fantastic and great reviews from everyone I've talked to. Everyone that's told me to eat there has recommended the Uncle John but there's kimchi on it and I'm not completely sold on that so maybe next time I'll be brave enough to try it. Until that day, I'm happy to say that I instead got the Bahn Mi sandwich which came with chips and I'm not the least bit disappointed. First off, I got the sandwich to go because it was a busy day and I didn't have time to stop (plus I'm not a huge fan of going out and eating alone. Not quite there yet but believe me, I'm getting there). Before I made it the half a block to my car my stomach was grumbling and I had to have at least a chip so I open the cute little to go box and take a bite. These chips are fantastic. Super crisp and crunchy but they have the perfect mouth feel and don't tear into your gums. Points to you Marty's. Already, I'm happy.

I made the drive home and ate while getting ready for the my night and believe me, this sandwich was hard to put down. Really great crisp french bread, fantastic pork belly, pickled veggies, cilantro, and this fantastic red pepper aioli that drips out of the sandwich. I pull the jalapenos before taking a bite but if you're into that, they're there. Overall this sandwich is great, super filling for a reasonable price and great flavor. The girl making there making my sandwich was super great too and I had a lot of fun talking to her while she worked.

Totally ready to come back to this place (for the Uncle John?) when I'm in the area. Cute location and great food with great workers.
