Mean Sandwich

#momandpopshop

Created by NYC Momofuku vets Kevin and Alex Pemoulié, Mean Sandwich opened in 2017 to amazing praise from sandwich lovers and food writers across the country including Bon Appétit's “Top 50 Best New Restaurants in America in 2017” as a sandwich shop! The duo are no strangers to building successful restaurants, their first project Thirty Acres in Jersey City was a James Beard “Best New Restaurant” nominee in 2013.

​

Keeping it simple, the original menu at Mean Sandwich served just about a half dozen sandwiches. Though the menu was abrupt, Seattle Mag noted "Each ingredient, however, is there with a purpose, from the fried lemons on the sardine sandwich to the yuzu kosho mayo on the steak tartare club."
