Best Deli Sandwich
Compagno’s Market & Deli
2000 Prescott Ave., Monterey

Compagno’s sandwiches are a circus on their own – from the towering menu of choices to the towering sandwiches that require both hands. Like clowns spilling from a miniature car, dozens of sandwiches leave the counter of this small shop. And you just know Compagno’s is never going to change, parked outside the presidio and decorated with military memorabilia. With all the classic sandos, plus plenty of originals and options to customize, this old-school act still knows how to put on the best sandwich show in town.
