Capriotti's Sandwich Shop
9620 Las Vegas Blvd S, Las Vegas, NV 89123 702-407-5602
Description: SOUTH LAS VEGAS. The decor is basic and the locations unassuming, but this chain of sandwich shops has folks returning again and again for scrumptious, hefty lunchtime fare.

While cheesesteaks, tuna subs, and meatball selections please, regulars can't get enough of the Bobbie, which unites terrific roasted turkey with cranberry sauce and dressing on a roll. You might have your doubts, but one taste will leave you convinced that it's the best thing since, well, sliced bread.
