Food review: Steak sandwich
Restaurant: Sellers Markets (San Francisco)
Food description: Niman Ranch grilled steak sandwich seasoned with cracked salt & pepper topped with grilled mushrooms, caramelized onions, and melted provolone cheese, side of mixed greens
Food rating: 7.5 out of 10
Times ordered: 1
This was my second visit to Sellers Markets, a bustling new lunch spot that I wasn't very impressed with my first visit (as well as my coworkers) . Every place deserves a second chance, so I thought I'd check out one of their hot sandwiches. I usually expect steak sandwiches to be a little tough, so boy was I surprised when I bit into this sandwich and it was tender as can be. The flavor was also very impressive thanks to the flavorful Niman Ranch beef and delicious grilled mushrooms. The grilled onions were just the right amount, thankfully, since I can only handle them in moderation. The provolone cheese worked perfectly with the rest of the sandwich and the bread was toasty and warm, and the right texture for the meat. All of the ingredients worked really well together, but there wasn't enough meat for the bread. This is a common issue for me, as the last sandwich I had here was also lacking in meat (as well as Toaster Oven). For 10 bucks, I shouldn't have to go to the vending machine for a Snickers bar at 4pm because I'm starving. Plus, I couldn't eat more than a bite of the salad, as it was drenched in garlic, and that's really not my thing. But for what it was, this steak sandwich blows away others I've had in this neighborhood (aka Thirsty Bear) so I'd definitely recommend it to anyone local.
