Primanti’s in the Strip District is the original location serving food to the locals. Every sandwich at Primanti’s comes with meat, cheese, coleslaw, tomato, and fries on top. The best seller is beer but the #2 sammich is the Pittsburgher. Also their black bean sammich is my favorite for the veggie people.
