Earl's Reviews

We're honored to be featured regularly on the pages of local publications and in the pixels of digital pubs and blogs. Please read on for a selection of what others have to say about our sandwich fixation.

The best sandwich shop in VA!

Proud to be representing the entire state of Virginia on LoveFood’s list of “Best Sandwich Joint in Every US State (and DC)”!

“The self-professed ‘sandwich nerds’ at this no-frills shop pride themselves on their homemade offerings. They’ve been serving them up in generous proportions since 2005, delighting punters with simple yet delicious creations. Plump for turkey breast with cranberry relish on grilled multigrain bread, or pork loin, chipotle mayo and French fries all cased within ciabatta. Veggies will love the breaded eggplant concoction too.”

Earl’s Wins Best Sandwich in Best Of D.C.’s Reader Poll!

We are extremely excited to announce that we have been voted Best Sandwich for Washington City Paper’s Best of D.C.’s Reader Poll for 2017!

We know that D.C. is a foodie town and there are tons of wonderful options, so we were elated when we heard the big news. Thank you to all of you who took the time out of your busy day to vote for us- we truly appreciate it!

When we started Earl’s in 2005, we had a simple sandwich-joint manifesto: We will roast our beef, pork and turkey fresh- no sliced deli meats here. Soups will be homemade, and we’ll bake cookies fresh every day. And since we love breakfast so much, we’ll serve breakfast sandwiches ALL.DAY.LONG.

We’ve come a long way in twelve years, but one thing will always remain the same- we believe in creating sandwiches that are homemade—without the hassle for you.

Come visit us in Clarendon (2605 Wilson Boulevard, a five-minute walk from Courthouse Metro) and enjoy a fresh sandwich, a cup of soup or made-from-scratch cookie (or all three!)

We cater, too. Nothing fancy, just great food at reasonable prices for meetings, office events and small get-togethers. Generous portions, along with the drinks and cookies to keep your energy up for that final two hours of the meeting.

We just want to say thanks again- it’s been a wild ride and we have loved every minute of it. We couldn’t do what we love everyday without your support- hope to see you soon!

 

The Washington Post

Wash Post Earl's piece Oct 2015Plate Lab is The Washington Post’s way of getting the goods on a restaurant dish, and sharing the scoop with home cooks. On October 22, 2015, they featured the recipe for the Roasted Earl. Bonnie Benwick revisited Earl’s to get details on our Roasted Earl, the classic pork-and-pepper sandwich that’s been on our favorites menu for years. Not only did we have fun with Bonnie and photographer Renee Comet, but they made the Earl look and sound delicious in the Sunday Post. Thank you!

Way Beyond PB&J – The Ultimate Sandwich Guide

Way Beyond PB&J -Washingtonian September 2013The Arlington at Earl’s

“The breakfast version of the Monte Cristo wouldn’t be out of place among the artery-cloggers at IHOP. French toast is layered with turkey and bacon, then drizzled with maple syrup or strawberry preserves.”

Earl’s Sandwiches, Arlington VA
Earl’s roasts its meat in-house, which bolsters the turkey-cranberry combo. Jellied sauce and thick slices of the bird remind us of the best part of the day after Thanksgiving: leftovers.
