IYKYK. I drove here…read morehella early in the morning because this place tends to get packed pretty quickly. I ordered a large grilled pork banh mi. The patte was nice and crispy. The sandwich itself is loaded with the perfect meat to veggies ratio. The price is also very reasonable. A small $4.50, large $8.75. Also if you order 4 sandwiches, they will give you a 5th one free. One of the best if not the best banh mi spots in the Bay. Like I said IYKYK. Try it out if you like. :)

My order: #1 grilled pork #6 meatball - w/ garlic bread #7 pork w egg #15 chicken avocado - w/ garlic bread + steak special All were excellent, with my favorite being the pork with egg (the egg just leveled it up). Chicken avocado was unique & avocados they used were so fresh + creamy, yet since it didn't come with pickled veggies, to me it was a little meat-heavy & missing that pickle-y balance. If you don't eat the sandwiches immediately, I highly recommend re-heating them in the toaster, especially if you get the garlic bread! I was there on a random Friday 4:30pm in May 2026 & there was a short line to order inside the store. Afterwards, join the crowd waiting for their # to be called / shown on the screen (which is located to the right of the store entrance). My order was ready in 20 min, which was what staff taking my order estimated for me.

We initially wanted to go to a different spot for bánh mì, but it had run out, so we ended up at…read morethis place since it was nearby. Looking back, I should have trusted my gut. From the moment we walked in, it was clear this place is struggling. The fridge by the entrance looked unkempt, the kitchen felt more like a cramped kitchenette than a professional setup, and the dining area was completely chaotic. The tables and chairs piled up everywhere with absolutely no place to sit. The food only confirmed my suspicions. Their pork tasted like plain pork. You know you're at a good bánh mì spot when the grilled pork carries the smoky, caramelized flavor of barbecue chicken, but here, there was none of that. The bread was technically good, crispy on the outside and soft inside, but even that couldn't save the experience. I came with my sister, who had never tried bánh mì before, and it was a terrible first impression for her. Between the run-down environment, the underwhelming food, and the sense that the place might be on its last legs, it was not worth our time or appetite. I will definitely not be returning

So many delicious banh mis! I visited on a Thursday afternoon, and the store had occasional…read morevisitors, but it wasn't busy at all. The shop is quite small, so it is definitely a grab-and-go place. Their only menu item is a banh mi with various fillings. Each banh mi was $7.50, a very fair price. I ordered several fillings, including grilled pork, combination, and pork belly. They have a buy 3 get 1 free deal. Keep in mind: this place only accepts cash. The cashier was so kind, and my order arrived quickly. I was impressed with the size of each banh mi. A single banh mi was so filling. The baguette was filled with daikon, cucumber, jalapeno, cilantro and meat. The grilled pork was my absolute favorite: the meat was cooked to perfection. This is the perfect speedy lunch. I can't wait to visit again!

They say Thien Huong is Duc Huong's rival and I would have to agree! (please don't hate!)…read more This place deserves more praise. It doesnt have the best front store or inside store appeal but its definitely authentic. These ladies start making their food early in the morning. I came at 715 one morning and the glass windows were already foggy (mainly because it was freezing inside and they were cooking up a storm inside). The older ladies were in the back, seated in a low seat, shredding carrots and radish into big bowls. It doesn't get more authentic than these guys. As for the sandwich, it was about $1-$3 cheaper than Duc Huong and their sandwiches do not cut the roof of your mouth! Doc Huong sandwiches are too tough for me and I prefer the softer, fresh french bread. Duc Huongs meat is also a bit too charred for me while Thien Huong's meat is a bit more juicier and tender. If I was in the area, I'd come back 100%.

CA Bakehouse still is popular. There were regulars lining-up at 1pm to order products by the door…read more Customers still weren't allowed inside the bakery area. One queue was for online orders (recommended by the bakehouse) and the other was manned by an attendant with a tablet and a printed menu. Parking wasn't a hassle this time as there were plenty of spots. Add the fact that we were now familiar with Vietnam Town. We got our usuals with choux (Kaya and Ube), Pandan-Coconut Milk Bread and Banh Bo (honeycomb cake). The mention worthy Guava filled Mochi Cake was so good! A yummy tip that elevates this baked good was when I toasted it (4 minutes) in an airfryer. The crunchy surface with the chewy mochi texture plus the sweet guava stuffing was the perfect ratio I was looking for in a dessert pastry. Can't wait to go back and have more of the guava filled goodness!

We ordered the bánh bò (honeycomb cake), guava filled mochi cake, and espresso cookie. I absolutely loved the bánh bò. It was soft, bouncy, and flavorful, as it should be. I would definitely get this again. The guava filled mochi cake was okay. I sort of wish the guava filling was spread around the more. I would not recommend the espresso cookie. It was an odd combination of flavors. It wasn't burnt but tasted like it/bitter and heavy on the butter. I would come back for the bánh bò for sure though!

I actually like it better next day. I got my sandwich within 2-3 minutes upon ordering. It wasn't busy around 5p on a weekday. I mentioned earlier how I love the seating area. I got mine Togo this time along with Vietnamese pork chops from their table of ready to eat meals. For about $10, I was able to get just pork chops only since I have rice and egg at home. I pan fried the meat a little longer at home for a more charred flavor.

West Coast Sourdough is an almost weekly stop for my husband and I after our grocery run. We tried…read morethis place once after being unsatisfied with the sandwich options in the surrounding grocery store delis, and this exceeded our expectations. The shop is a standard deli with a few tables inside. The service is fast and friendly, and the ingredients are fresh. The best part about these sandwiches, though, is that their sourdough has a crunchy exterior. The sourdough I've experienced at other sandwich locations tends to have a softer outside, which leads me to typically offering Dutch crunch instead. At West Coast Sourdough, though, their sourdough is just as crunchy as a Dutch crunch elsewhere, giving me both the texture and flavor profile I desire. If I'm looking for a basic deli sandwich on a quality sourdough roll, it's always safe to assume I'll be going here.

Whether you're ordering to-go or eating in, the food is always piping hot and consistently flavorful, never disappoints! Our go-to order is the clam chowder with a sourdough bread bowl, which is hands down the best. I recommend getting the bread bowl on the side so you can enjoy the bread and chowder together. The clam chowder is my favorite, perfectly creamy with generous chunks of clams and potatoes. The bread bowl is the highlight, fluffy and crispy at the same time. Yum!

I believe that they have multiple locations in San Jose but this was on our way to Valley Fair. There was already a line forming when we arrived at noon. We waited about 20 minutes before our order was ready. We ordered 2 large sandwiches - cold cut combo and grilled pork. The bread was light and crispy. We liked that they removed a lot of the breading inside. The meats and condiments also did not disappoint. The quality of the sandwiches were by far the best I've never had. Can't believe it took me so long to stop by but glad I finally did. I wished that they had a location closer to where I live, but this won't stop me from driving here if I ever want a sandwich!!
