We visited the 716 Pizza Joint for lunch on a Friday. The process is to order at the counter and then go to the dining area. The ordering process was easy as the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. We asked a lot of questions about their Beef on Weck and in each case we received a good answer. The BOW is served with fries.
While we waited for our food, we had an opportunity to look around the dining area - totally a Buffalo Place! The owner is from Buffalo and shared some memories while the food was being prepared.
The review:
The beef was very flavorful and cooked to medium. The portion was large. It was moist and delicious. Thinly sliced and tender although a few pieces had a touch of fibrous connective tissue. Overall score 4 points
The roll is a Costanzo roll according to staff. It was warm, toasted, and had a great balance of salt and caraway. I like a little less topping on the roll but it was The bottom of the roll had a moist au jus sip (or maybe it was just the run off from the dipped beef) that made it just perfect.
Overall, the roll has a score of 3 points
Au jus was very nice with a good flavor and no detectable hint of au jus mix. Score: 1 point.
Horseradish was fresh and well colored. It was milder than I like but was a good condiment for the sandwich. Score 1 point.
The was no pickle spear :( Score: 0 points
Overall, this was a great sandwich by Florida Standards. with a total score of 9 points, it is also the highest of the BOW sandwiches rated to date. We will go again.
