Wide selection of drinks available
Joseph N.

Not bad! I arrived at about 10:30p which is later than most shops are willing to serve. Desperate for a light Monday night dinner, and too lazy to make a salad or cook at home, I ventured into this banh mi shop late at night. As a Vietnamese person, I think we're all banh mi connoisseurs, and know what a good banh mi tastes like and contains. The contents and mayo/sauce to bread ratio was on point. Quality of ingredients was better than expected. Food tastes quite nice. For reference, better than Banh Mi Che Cali but not THH. If that makes sense. The shop offers a buy 2 get 1 free for the round bread option. The total cost for 3 sandwiches was about $14. The vibe of the shop was chill and there were a couple people studying or hanging out. Perhaps bro finally found the courage to say hello haha. A win is a win and I expect my wedding invitation soon. Jokes obviously. Music was soft Viet electronica rather than the usual karaoke or EDM sounds. Also appeared pretty clean to me. Would I return? Yes, late night drive to banh mi with a cozy date/hangout corner (where the magic happens). Finally, there was a wide selection of drinks available but I opted for a cold coke zero at home. Worth the gas in 2026? If you're within 15 minutes, absolutely.

Decent and stable. I think I ate here 3 times total since it opened awhile back. The place big and grand with plenty of ready to eat foods and dozen foods. Came here for bbq pork bánh mì ans I knew it will okey. And it was but abit more of burned pork. I don't know what it is but to foods here are not that bad but at the same time, not that good neither. Favor is there but neither off nor tasteless. The bread is just a okey but crispy but not favor is not there. But with all together, it's okey not bad at all. Prices are decent and portion is nicely bigger. Staff are nice & friendly. The place is and clean with plenty of ready to eat foods to choose from. Parking is easy since it's in a big shopping complex. This wouldn't be my first choice to go for sandwiches but it's right next to the market so convenient to stop by for quick bite and they do open later than other sandwich shops nearby.

This place advertises as being open 24 hours but I think that's incorrect and they're only open until close to midnight which is still nice since a lot of banh mi shops close early over there. I made sure to call before going over on Lunar New Year weekend and they were surprisingly still closing at midnight which was cool because a lot of places are closed or close early for Tet. They have a buy 2 get 1 free promotion that you should take advantage of. It only applies to the "round" baguettes and not the long French ones. I ordered special, head cheese, and grilled beef. All were okay and did the job but it's your best bet for being open at those hours. They have very little filling inside. I would come back again though due to the hours.

I am extremely disappointed with my experience. I purchased 5 boxes of these cakes, spending over $60, because my children love them and I have bought them from this store many times before. When we opened the boxes at home, we were shocked to find that almost every box contained cakes with visible mold. Many of the cakes had green and blue mold spots, and I have attached photos as proof. This is completely unacceptable for a business selling food. I am very concerned about the store's food safety and storage practices. I had no choice but to throw away all 5 boxes because I could not risk my children's health. I am leaving this review to warn other customers to carefully inspect any baked goods or food products before purchasing from this store. I hope the management takes this issue seriously, improves their quality control, and contacts me to resolve this matter. Food safety should never be compromised.

Don't let the sign fool you it's not open 24hrs ...
Mark B.

Like its sister store up the road a bit, the food is good. Staff is helpful. Atmosphere is a bit basic, but sign says it's open 24hours so that fits. Best option might be take out, but if you want banh mi, I'd stop here.

Looks yummy

Open late so it's good that there's a banh mi option at 11pm. Also it's a bonus where they offered the buy 2 , get one free on 5-6 options. Overall, the portion is a bit smaller but the meat quality was good and meat to great ratio was good. A negative is that they're a lot of homeless out in front by the place but they pretty much didn't bother me and kept to themselves.

Special number 14 on left
Deja V.

I tried lots of banh mi place and I have to say this is one of the best . They made their own pate and bread . The bread sandwich is so crispy and big . The special number 14 is best I wouldn't recommend the grill pork . They have varieties of delicious on desserts on display and they also open late which is a

Barely filled

Taste is ok. It's just a sad sandwich for what else you can get in the area. Very little filling and quite expensive in comparison to others. Go elsewhere for a good, fully packed bánh mì.

(#06) Ga / Grilled Chicken with egg

When it's late and you have a craving for something besides fast food, banh mi or Vietnamese sandwich is the way to go. Luckily I was driving across the area and checked on Yelp to see what's open and this place is open till midnight. It's a little store with a nice variety of sandwiches and other Vietnamese desserts to carry out. I knew what I was going to get even before I entered since I always live and chicken Banh Mi with Egg added to it. The bread was nice and fresh and had a nice crunch to it. Just the way it should be. And I love the pickled veggies and jalapeño as well. Definitely glad I swung by the area to stop for a delicious banh mi.

Most notable thing about this Bahn Mi shop is that the baguettes are light and chewy, not crispy and hard. I like this feature because the sandwiches are easier to eat. I got the dac biet house special and grilled pork large sandwiches. The small sandwiches are buy two and get one free. The sandwiches were good. Servers here don't speak much English.

#1 round bread
Ava L.

my first review of 2025! I was in the area for impromptu grocery shopping trip late tuesday evening after having dinner in the area. This 24 hour banh mi shop was right next to it and certainly caught my group's attention. the interior is small and clean. They had a buy 2 get 1 free deal for the round sandwiches. One wall was a glass display case of drinks, vietnamese desserts/drinks. We were too full from dinner, so we airfried the sandwich the next day and it was nice and crispy with a good amount of pate and butter (unlike mr. Baguette where i paid extra for pate and only got a sliver -_-) they also gave cucumbers in their veggie bag which was a nice surprise! Usually it's just picked carrots and daikon with cilantro and jalapenos. It was also a really large portion of the veggies for us. Lots of parking as well. I will be back the next time I'm craving a banh mi in the area and it's past usual closing hours lol

Keep messing up my order.  Not happy

Despite the multitude of new cafes to try in the area, I always come back to Sip for their seasonal drinks. Every few months, they manage to come up with creative flavors that you can't find anywhere else. This Fall, they have Slutty Caramel Apple, Miso Maple, and Abuelita's Vietnamese Mocha, just to name a few. The drinks always look super cute and photogenic, but they taste even better than they look. I love that Sip makes their syrups and foams in-house and whisks their matcha to order, because you can really taste the freshness in the drinks. The matcha flavor is present, but not bitter like some of the more popular OC spots. This balance allows you to taste the seasonal flavors along with the matcha. Their espresso drinks are very smooth and do not taste acidic or burnt at all. There is almost always a line out the door when you visit on the weekends, but it moves quite quickly. Inside, Sip's decor is welcoming and unpretentious, with a picnic-style vibe. They always put up themed decorations and display some matcha, coffee beans, and merch for sale along the wall. Seating is limited, but there is usually a spot to sit while you wait for your drinks, either outside or inside. I have seen some people study/work in the seats near the bar, but I would not recommend because of the crowds. Sip is located in a large plaza, so there is plenty of parking. Sip is definitely worth a try (or ten)!

Appreciate how clean this place is. Love the type of chill music they play. It's like a little hidden gem! Beverages/Service: lots of options! We tried their orange series because that's their signature. The orange was definitely a forward flavor so paired with the hojicha, it was like orange chocolate. Whereas it overpowered the matcha flavor. They want to guarantee satisfaction so they told us they'd remake it. While it's not my preference, it's not bad, so I kept mine. I'm just so grateful they were kind enough to offer the remake. I'd definitely come back.

While I was there I saw their glorious casing of pastries and I couldn't resist. I ordered and enjoyed: 2 Garlic Bread ($5.35/each), Chocolate Croissant ($6.60), Almond Croissant ($6.85), Cinnamon Pull Apart Bread ($4.75) and 2 Macarons ($3.20). Their pastries are fantastic. My boyfriend doesn't enjoy sweets as much as I do so that garlic bread was good for it. The croissants were really flakey and flavorful. I enjoyed the bread. For the macarons I was given a third one as a thanks for all the items I orders and I liked all 3. Yum! Wish I could come back to support the business, especially with their incredible coffee, but I was told that they will be closing on 7/31/26. I'm so sad I didn't discover them sooner. I wish them all the best and hope they re-open in the future.
