    NOTE: Food-wise, this review is solely based on their banh mis because that's the only thing I have ordered from them. Very casual/relaxed environment restaurant. Does not seem as busy as the Don's Cafe in Bellaire: never had to wait for a table and there's plenty of parking. The menu is not as extensive as other Vietnamese places but they have great lunch specials. Service really depends on the day/time and how busy it is because I think there's only 1-2 servers. When it's busy, you may have to (understandably) wait a bit to get your order/food. Sandwiches are affordable and almost always on point: bread crispy, vegetables are fresh, tasty and great portions. My go-to in the area when I'm craving a banh mi!

    Service, excellent! Ambiance very clean! Food, top notch! So why 4 stars?! Because they don't have Vietnamese beef stew on the menu! For me that's like a really good Mexican restaurant that doesn't have green sauce! Love, love, love the food and banh mi here!! Hidden gem behind Shipley's!

    don't understand the low reviews at Don's - taste amazing, quick service, and cheap price! We got the grilled pork and grilled beef banh mi. I have been coming to Don's since I could remember but the bellaire location - this location is just like this bellaire location! We came on a saturday and found seats immediately. Server came and took our order and provided water. the Banh mi's were fresh and crisp and packed with meat and veggies! Truly a gem spot in sugarland/stafford. This is what a vietnamese Banh Mi should taste like. Hope Don's stays open forever!! They need to bring back the buy 5 get 1 free :( I remember a decade ago bellaire location used to do that!!

    Grilled beef #1 combo

    So this morning on my way to the junk yard I decided to get some breakfast before hitting the junk yard. Didn't know they had a don in Stafford. Stop by and got the don #1 grilled beef sandwich with an iced coffee. Bread was really crunchy and meat was on point. Gf got the #3 sandwich combo with Diet Coke. Seem like we was the first one in cause there was no one here yet. Place has a nice vibe to it.

    They get it right every time!

    They get it right every time. This location takes card/cash. Great service! Everything on the menu is good!

    Banh mi bo nuong (grilled beef)

    How did I not know there was a second Don Cafe location?! I was in town and staying in the Sugar Land area and saw that this location was super close. I had high hopes that it would be just as good as the Bellaire location. I called in my order and was very surprised that there was just a couple of people dining in when I walked in. I guess I'm just used to the hustle and bustle of the other location. The banh mi here is just as good as the other location! I love the pate and creamy mayo in Don Cafe's sandwiches. It never disappoints! I tried the bo nuong (grilled beef) as well for the first time and it was also very good. The baguette is toasted to a light crisp and the veggies are super fresh. I have a special love for Don Cafe's banh mi and this place totally delivered the taste I've been craving.

    Grilled beef Banh Mi

    They have the best Banh Mi in this area hands down!! The baguette is always crispy with tons of filling inside. We always order the combination and the grilled beef with pate because their pate is amazing. It is super smooth and creamy and rich and it's the perfect addition to your sandwich. Everything is priced reasonably too. Ooh and you must get the Vietnamese iced coffee! This drink is super robust with the strong and dark coffee taste. The coffee to milk ratio is always spot on. I feel like their spring rolls have gotten smaller over time. And sometimes the shrimps may have a slight odor. They could have been sitting outside for too long idk. The sauce is quite decent.

    Sad!!!!!! Ordered a meat ball banh mi. Got the banh mi with no meat ball. Not happy!

    Very well priced Bahn Mis. I thought that the bread was very good and the filling was tasty. However, it needed some sauce, so I added sriracha and it took it up a level. The sandwich makes for a great light lunch on a very light budget.

    Combo 4 with Beef Banh Mi/Spring Rolls

    I'm honestly surprised by so many of these negative reviews. My copilot and I stopped in and were instantly greeted before grabbing a table. They brought us some waters and took our order. We each ordered one of the combos and it arrived within 5-10 minutes. We both loved the Beef Banh Mi and I loved my spring rolls while my copilot enjoyed his egg rolls. We were shocked with how cheap it was that we almost ordered another sandwich! I definitely recommend giving this place a shot, we will be back.

    Beef Sandwich with Fried egg

    This is a review for a call in order. I called and they were very prompt the man on the phone was funny he made me feel like it was going to be good service from the start. I could hear the joy in his voice. I ordered the spring rolls with Tofu since I'm vegetarian. I ordered a tofu sandwich, so far I've only are the spring rolls but they were delicious... the sauce is amazing!!! Update: the sandwich is also really good!!

    I've been going to Don Cafe for lunch 2-3 times a month since they opened in Stafford and never disappointed! I usually get the Pho or Bun when eating in, but get the Banh Mi when getting take out. ALL are fantastic! ANYTHING with the grilled pork is great!! The pork is always flavored perfectly and grill just right. The Pho with Beef Eye of Round is my favorite Pho. Best Banh Mi is the grilled pork with pate. Very clean and organized restaurant with good service. The manager is always expediting food to make sure you can get in and out over your lunch hour. They also take orders for pickup, never ordered anything but Banh Mi for pickup, but it helps speed things up.

    half my chicken bahn mi. Extra butter and extra chicken (total 8 dollars).

    Consistently good. Pace is slower but this place is more relational and that's a good fit.

    Dropped by as I had some free time and wanted to work on some things on my labtop/make some calls…read more Pros -I had the Hot Spanish Latte, and the drink was good. It had sweet milk and expresso. I thought it was sweeter than I thought it would be but still not overly sweet. I liked it and would get again. -They had many tables and also outlets good for people to use for labtops/charging. -Cafe is very pretty, modern, and overall clean. -Menu has variety with coffee, frappes, matcha Cons -Restroom or restroom doors do not have place to hang or put personal items. I had a backpack with me, and I did not want to leave it outside. -The white chairs are looking worn out and because of that, it does affect the ambience of the cafe.

    Tried Shaghf Cafe (@shaghf.sugarland) recently and it was such a great experience. The first thing…read morethat stands out is the ambiance--modern, elegant, and super spacious with a really relaxing vibe. It's the kind of place you can sit and unwind or catch up with friends. The drink menu is extensive with a lot of unique options. I went with the Hibiscus Breeze, which was refreshing, slightly tart, and perfect for a warm day. My coworkers tried a variety of drinks including the Pistachio Latte, Habibi Latte, and Dates Latte, and all of them were a hit. Each drink had its own distinct flavor, and you can tell they put thought into crafting their menu. Overall, Shaghf Cafe is a great spot if you're looking for a chill atmosphere paired with unique and flavorful drinks. Definitely a place I'd come back to.
