I think it is implied in the question that the meatballs are good tasty meatballs. That being the case a meatball parm sandwich is just so good. To me its not even close. I like chicken but i love good meatballs.
Sandwich Battle: Meatball Parm vs Chicken Parm
Go time
Meatball, far superior!
I just had an apple with peanut butter on it for lunch so i am hating @baylrballa and his meatball sub picture
Not meatball, that's for sure. I never understood the appeal for a meatball sub. I'll take chicken parm
Chicken Parm because a bad meatball just ruins a good sandwich.
Chicken parm if made correctly is far superior. I appreciate stuff that has texture and layers to it. Meatballs do not provide that in a sandwich. While quite good on their own right, they are often a mush fest

Chicken Parm for me, meatball sandwich just sounds too lumpy. Meatballs with pasta, now your talking.
I've looked locally and I cannot seem to find a place that offers either. Do these sandwiches just not exists in the PNW?

There is a Greek and Italian place not too far from my house that I've never been to. I went online to see if they have sandwiches and they do.
But now I want to grab some veal parm instead of a sandwich.
This forum sends me down so many rabbit holes...

Chicken parm. I love both but my moms chicken parm was my favorite food growing up and a good chicken parm sandwich is still one of my favorites and hits hard with the nostalgia.

Thanks! I managed to find another spot a little closer with both sandwiches on their menu. I'll have to give both a shot and report back.Pizza and Pasta Bar home of Seattle best Meatball Sandwich

I'm with some of the other folks here. I want my chicken parm on a plate with pasta. Same with veal parm.

These are the sacrifices we THPers make
The results are in…
Meatball parm takes the cake hands down. The meatballs were perfectly seasoned, the marinara sauce was just right, and it had just the right amount of cheese.
Chicken parm was good, but I felt the chicken was a bit dry, under seasoned, and just underwhelming in comparison.
Wife agrees that the meatball parm was the winner, so much so that she took the rest of the sandwich from me.

I think I like the *idea* of the chicken parm sandwich more than the meatball parm, but the execution of the meatball parm is better, from what I’ve had thus far. Would love to have this switch some day!
Typically been a Chicken Parm guy and never had a Meatball but if good, I’d try the meatball.
On second thought, I retract my statement. I'll take tuna instead.
Tuna parm is definitely a lifestyle choice.
What are you implying?
No. Not tuna parm. There should not BE a parm as part of a sammich. It belongs on a plate. Accompanied with pasta of some sort. But that's only my opinion. I'll even take it as an open face sammich. But a sub? Naw. Too messy.
