The Modern Butcher placed 11th. Here's what Food & Wine said about it:

"Okay, this is a butcher shop first, but insiders know it’s a sandwich shop, too. It’s only right that the sustainable, pasture-raised meats from local New England farms are front and center, packed high. Most notably, people flock to The Modern Butcher for the traditional North Shore roast beef sandwich, the three-way “NSB” with white American cheese, James River barbecue sauce, and slices of pink beef."
