The Godmother

📍 Los Angeles Italian Deli $

at Bay Cities Italian Deli

"The Godmother has been built the same way since 1925 — genoa salami, mortadella, ham, and the house Italian dressing that makes everything sing. The bread is from their own bakery, slightly crusty, never soggy. This is the sandwich that defines Santa Monica."
