Knuckle Sandwich

I was excited to try Knuckle Sandwich after a ton of positive ink on social media & Austin food sites and such. So, I was prepared to be underwhelmed as it was hyped up. I thought it was really cool how they list where they source their food from, and 1/2 of the bread comes from Abby Jane (and they use the adjacent Barton Springs Mill for grain), so that pumped me up as Drip is my jam!Anyway, I took one look at my sandwich and I just kinda said, this looks impressive. And it only took one bite, and I was absolutely shocked. The sandwich was just incredible. I had the turkey one (and will be back for the others). I can't even tell you the last time I had bread like the bread they use. Fresh/crispy. It's hard to explain how good this sandwich is, and well worth the premium price you pay.I also had the Matzah Ball soup and it had this freshness to it and a great matzah ball that kinda took me back to my grandmas on Staten Island. However, it was a bit on the salty side for my taste. In contrast, I wish my Grandma would have used *any* salt in hers, but that's a story for another time.Lastly, I have to say the whole area, the brewery that Knuckle Sandwich is associated with is amazing. Benches to sit in (with heaters), indoor/outdoor pickleball courts, a pizza truck right next to it...and more broadly speaking the whole Yard is filled with food trucks, breweries, distilleries - just awesome.I will be back and this is one of the places i will bring friends/family visiting to show them how cool Austin is!

heard a lot of great things about knuckle sandwich, and was actually pretty disappointed. The sandwich + chickpea bites were $26 total. I find the pricing absurd. However, the quality of the sandwich was also kind of a miss. The bread was great, and the actual meat was good -- but the sandwich is 70% lettuce and 30% meat. I think for a $19 sandwich (tax included) it should be filling and good. The service was great, the chickpea bites were fire and the place is super cool. Just think they either need to lower prices or up the food quality (quantity?).

Wow! Just wow!Try the chickpea tots. If you do nothing else you have to try these. They are great by themselves or with the sauces they come with. I had the lamb sandwich. It was rich and delicious. Not for the faint of heart. An explosion of flavors with every bite. I hear from coworkers the Italian sandwich is even better (not sure it's possible. Guess I'll have to go back. On top of this the staff is very friendly and helpful with questions.

We shared a sandwich (the Italian) while hanging at Ant's Beer Cave and it was pretty good. The chickpea tots were to die for. I will def come back for those!

Have been before and enjoyed the knuckle sandwich. This time tried the lamb sammie and matzo ball soup. Surprisingly, the soup came loaded with cilantro. Never seen cilantro used in mb soup and for those of us with the genetic cilantro tastes like soap gene we look hard on menus to avoid it. At this place they don't mention cilantro in the soup but they do mention celery which seems wrong. Same with the sandwich. Says "herbs" but not cilantro while they do disclose cilantro elsewhere on the menu. Why hide it in some items but disclose on others? The chef is apparently sephardic but the matzo ball was not even tender or fluffy. Do sephardim prefer hard matzo balls with cilantro? The lamb in the Sammie was also dry. Prices are set for perfection$9 for cup of soup and $17 for sandwich.

Best sandwiches in Austin by far. Super sophisticated flavor pairings! Using only the best meat from Olympia Provisions.

Went yesterday and had the Knuckle Sandwich. Easily up there with Home Slice for the best Italian sammy in town. They told me it would be a 20 minute wait and it was closer to 40 but was still worth it.

It was a solid sandwich, however for 17 dollars it was underwhelming for sure. The pictures they have posted online are not what the sandwich actually looks like. They put only two thin slices of meat on my sandwich, if I'm paying 17 dollars for a sandwich they should put a fair amount of meat on it.

I just finished the Knuckle sandwich, and it was better than my 2nd wife !!I'm going back tomorrow to try something different.Nick was great too !
