Best banh mi anywhere and still only $5. Spring rolls are excellent. Friendly and bilingual.

Been here for many years since the early 2000s although the price has changed the quality has mostly remained the same. The bbq beef banh mi is heavenly although a bit skimpy on the meat the sauce also is out of the world that doesn’t compare to other Vietnamese sandwich shops. The rice and noodle dishes are good for the portion. This is a family owned business so it is cash only . Plenty of side dishes or snacks to choose from at the counter

Ordered spring rolls for a party and they were fantastic! I ordered in the morning and picked up at the desired time. Will definitely return!

Read the favorable reviews and checked it out at my next opportunity. Got the #14 grilled pork banh mi, no mayo, and added some sriracha sauce from the table area. $5.50 cash.The sandwich was amazingly delicious, albeit a small 6 incher. No problem though, I finished it and ordered another one - same thing.Interior could be tidied up, but it is what it is. A delectable hole-in-the-wall.Highly recommend!

Dakao #1 had been my favorite banh mi spot (for my whole life, 30+ years, from SJ) but since it closed down I make the extra 15-20 minute drive to come here. The sandwiches are the best, other food is good but space is a little bit small to allow space for indoor dining. Prices are fair, great value that keeps me coming back.I wish there was actually more room for desserts and snacks (which is fairly common for banh mi shops, I would spend a lot more money here). There isn't music blasting etc which is cool but then it's almost too quiet and a little awkward sometimes if you're standing there waiting for a sandwich and there are people eating pho and watching you (bc not really a TV to watch instead lol).Service is fine and everyone I've talked to there is nice. Food is exceptional, one of my super favorites for banh mi!Vegetarian options: Cha Lua chay is available here and it's delicious

My new favorite banh mi shop. I'm a bit miffed that the banh mis don't automatically include pate, but the flavor is still phenomenal.

Very nice sandwiches with light and crispy bread! If you’re vegetarian or vegan, there is a tofu option. They’re cheap, so be sure to grab an extra one to snack on later. And they accept Venmo payments in addition to cash, too.

Worst deli, vietnamese sandwich. Barely any choices or selections of snacks.

The same auntie and uncle running this place keeping it solid and consistent. The banh mis are my go tos and are only 5.5 or 7$ and are top tier. Have been here like 10 times in the last 2 months. My favorite is #1 cold cuts combo with head cheese and #14 grilled pork. Fresh crispy crunchy breach, fresh ingredients and good pate mayo ratio. The drinks are good too for only 3.5 when they have them available and I have been eyeing all the cafeteria food and noodle options - tbd.

CASH ONLY.Cafeteria style with only a few tables but very nice owners and pretty good food! We had the 3ct shrimp & pork springrolls w.sweet peanut sauce, Pho #131 (eye of round steak, fat brisket & tripe) & #71 Crispy Egg Noodles w.seafood.Shrimp & pork springrolls were very fresh, tasty, and quite filling all on its own! Nice and w.the perfect amount of chew. Sorry, no pic, we were hungry and ate it before I could take a pic of it. They're in to-go containers next to the register.Pho were clean tasting, real bone broth though not as thick as Pho 54 (our favorite pho place), portion was just right, would enjoy again any time.Crispy egg noodles w.seafood, the noodles were tasty but quite greasy (very normal as they're fried), sauce was a little salty but still tasty, and the dish could use more seafood, you get about 5 shrimp, a few seafood cake balls, a few slivered rounds of squid and that's about it. The crunchy veggies were very good in and gave some much needed freshness to the dish.Their menu is extensive and they are known for their bahn mi sandwiches (who goes to Lee's Sandwiches anymore?) so we'll have to try those.Thank you to the beautiful Taiwanese girl (her first time there too!) who gave mom one of the bagged fried ice cream cone looking desserts to try when mom asked her if it was good, that was super sweet of her!!!Oh, and if by chance you play the lottery you can buy them here along w.a vending scratch off lottos as well, sort of a peculiar amenity!

Tasty banh mi. The bread was toasted and fresh. The BBQ pork was cut a little thick so you had to chew it. They did not put jalapeno so you might need to request it. Pate chaud seemed too thick a dough, bordering on empanada-dough thickness. The meat inside was fine. Need cash to pay.

Excellent seafood mini egg rolls but a little pricey. Bún bò Huế and bún riêu are also very good. Cash only. Open very early.

Excellent, delicious, Vietnamese food. Good pricing.The chicken and beef sandwiches are healthy, delicious, and every bite is perfect.French style bread or Mexican Style Bolillos filled with proteins and fresh crispy vegetables. Special sauce inside the sandwich is real tasty.The pork empanada is awesome.We love this lunch.
