Really nice Bahn Mi shop in the Glendora Marketplace. Ample free parking in the attached lot. Service was quick and friendly. Luckily not much of a line on a Monday at noon. Got their Pork BBQ Bahn Mi, with their standard recommended preparation, which was great. Their Pastrami Bahn Mi is fantastic. Half pound would be a regular meal for most, but if you have a huge appetite, the pound of meat would be recommended. This sandwich is quite pricy (18.99 for half, but a bit more than $30 for full pound). Viet coffee was good. Strong and not overly sweet, can't complain. Overall a pricy Bahn Mi place, but not truly fair to compare to standard Vietnamese places as the meat quality here is VERY high and much more than you'd get elsewhere (esp a comparison to Lee's where you can sometimes get a single sliver of thin meat on a bad day).

Pastrami banh mih
Jessica M.

First time trying the viral pastrami banh mih! This place was the only place in there with a long line so ya know it has to be the spot! Waited around 30-35 mins in line so be prepared to wait & don't come starving haha We finally got up to the front & got 2 pastrami (full) banh mihs cause my boyfriend can eat so he wanted his own lol they pack it in with quality pastrami so I was pretty pleased by that cause the sandwiches were stacked! I was a little disappointed they ran out of garlic butter cause I wanted to add that one to our buns, so I guess I'll have to come back to try it that way! I will say they were pricey @ $30 a sandwich so be prepared to spend. Was very pleased with everything! The sauces on the side the aju & the cilantro green sauce were the 2 go too's! Must get the green it was delicious with each bite! The sandwich was incredible just as I had hoped. I saved my half for my work lunch the next day & just as yummy warmed up! My boyfriend was jealous I still had some to eat the next day haha We barely made it before sell out cause maybe 10 mins after we ordered, I seen them put up the sign "they were out of pastrami" & the times to come back to come grab some! So very happy that didn't happen to us while we were in line (: Glendora public market was cute, found seating right away but I can see it being busy. Parking lot was a bit small & chaotic so that was the only downside of the market.

Was always curious about this place because of their pastrami banh mi so decided to grab it for dinner. One word to describe the sandwich is one bomb sandwich. The pickle veggies and pastrami go so well together. All the flavors balance each other and were really good. I got the 1/2 pastrami sandwich to share but next time I won't be sharing. Parking in a food hall is never the easier but there is extra parking down the stairs at the Bank of America.

Char Siu BBQ Pork Sandwich  $9.75. Add chips & drink for + $4.99
RoseMary F.

This location is inside the Glendora Marketplace. They are open 7 days a week from 7AM to 8PM for breakfast lunch and dinner. The breakfast sandwiches have eggs, sausage or steak. Lunch and dinner menu is the same (Sandwich, Salad or Summer Rolls). I ordered the Char Siu Pork Bahn Mi sandwich $9.75, plus a combo of chips and a soft drink for $4.99 extra. The bread was toasted and outstanding, a slight crunch on the outside and soft and fluffy inside. The Gold Standard filling was the best part (cucumbers, cilantro, daikon radishes, and carrots) with pate and aioli dressing. Other protein options are Chicken, Sausage Spam, Shrimp, and Tofu. The most popular protein is the Pastrami. It looked so good, I'm still drooling over it and bookmarking this spot for a return visit. This food hall has indoor and outdoor seating and free parking in their private lot. Sincerely, Rosemary

I love a good pastrami sandwich, and I also enjoy a good banh mi sandwich. So this was a no brainer if I was somewhat close to go and try it. Well....pastrami and banh mi DO NOT GO TOGETHER!! sorry for my honest opinion. Pastrami by itself was good. But it just doesn't mesh well with the other flavors. The service also wasn't very pleasant. The staff wasn't friendly at all! Especially the girl who made the sandwiches....she seemed like she didn't want to be there.

Overhyped to be honest. Their baguette rolls used for the Banh Mi Sandwiches are crisp yet soft. Their green cilantro-tasting sauce is perfect for adding onto the sandwiches. I think each sandwich or the ones I've tried (The Basic, Grilled Chicken) need more veggies in them stat. Also, I recently tried the Grilled Chicken Banh Mi and it had l fatty edges on each piece of grilled chicken. I guess that's how the meat comes packaged for them or not, but I didn't like it much so I was removing the fatty edges off each grilled chicken piece. And yeah this sandwich needed more veggies too. There are better Vietnamese sandwich spots out there.

Pastrami Bahn mi sandwich (half pound) with garlic butter bun

The food here is absolutely amazing. Hands down best pastrami I've ever had. When I think of having a great sandwich this place always comes to mind first! The service is always great. Layla is always there when I show up she always does a great job. She makes a great sandwich! I also recommend the spring rolls! Best I've had in a long time!

Crispy Pork sandwich
Khanh N.

Gold Banh has a delicious crispy pork sandwich. Their bread is on the crispier side and not as fluffy on the inside. Of all the crispy pork sandwiches, I've had eaten. I don't remember any putting pate with crispy pork. However, still good. Just not what I'm used to. The service was simple. Like a cafeteria style, you order, get called up for your food and sit in a beautiful communal dining hall.

I saw that the pastrami banh mi was not available and I was so disappointed. Everyone was asking for it. I ordered a crispy pork instead. I saw the man before me with a steak banh mi. The staff filled the meat over the bowl. They put the meat in the bowl before putting in banh mi. But for me, the crispy pork was 3/4 filled up to the bowl. Another disappointment there. I would not come back here. It would be a waste of effort to come and pastrami banh mi isn't available in the middle of the day.

Pastrami and pork belly sandwiches
Tiffany L.

The sandwiches are good, but don't think it's something I'd wait in a long line for again. We got the 1/2 lb pastrami and the crispy pork belly sandwiches. The 1/2 lb was a good idea, because the full pound is massive, unless you're sharing. While I enjoyed the textures from the protein, taste wise, I felt like something was missing. Looking back, I should have added one of their sauces. The baguette bread was very crunchy, but it was also a bit hard to chew. I wanted to get one of their drinks but out of the 5 they had, they only had 1 or 2 left, and this was at about 1pm on a Saturday.

Outside

Parking: There is a parking lot but it's on the smaller side. During peak times it's going to be tough to find parking. It would be better to find parking on the street to not stress yourself out. Word of caution the spaces are compact. Inside: The place is located inside of the Glendora Public Market. If you are coming from the front entrance the place is located towards the right corner to the back. If you are coming in from the side entrance from the parking lot it is located to your right. Service: The wait time can be long as they are currently training their employees. You can be waiting anywhere from 30 mins to 1hr+ but luckily I only waited 45 minutes. I went on a Sunday around 2:45 PM. If you're impatient and hungry then I would say this place is not for you. Tom's Famous Pastrami: I got the pastrami bahn mi on original bread. You can choose between 1/2 lb or 1 lb of pastrami. You can have your bread as it is or you can add garlic butter for extra. They recommend sauces/toppings with it which they call the "Gold Standard." It comes with garlic aioli, pate, mustard, mustard seeds, cilantro, pickled carrots and daikon and pickled onions. If not feel free to choose your own toppings. I decided to get the "Gold Standard" because the sandwich wizards know the best and if they didn't why would they recommend it. Honestly the sandwich looked so good, but I expected more. I went in open minded because it's not a traditional bahn mi place, but a fusion. However, I started to get sus when I saw the "Gold Standard" they recommend to get with the sandwich. The recommended toppings came with two doses of mustard condiments and two pickled items. I thought it was a bit crazy for one single sandwich. Nevertheless I did not question their master making sandwich skills and went with what they recommended. Because who am I to question a sandwich master. Sadly future me would be disappointed. I ate the bahn mi and was fairly disappointed. The crazy double mustard and double pickled items messed me up and most of all it messed up all the flavor. I could only taste mustard and pickled juices between two crispy slices of baguette bread. My mouth was confused. I left the place sad and smelling sour. I got to give it to them though the items on their own were great. The meat was tender and juicy, but needed a bit more salt to be honest. Not my kind of bahn mi sandwich, but to each their own. Overall: After trying out the sandwich, I would say this is not my kind of place. I paid $20+ to try the sandwich once and that's good enough for me. Tbh the price was a lot, the flavor was crazy and the bahn mi was small. Don't let my review stop you from trying out this place yourself. Take it with a grain of salt and try it out yourself. You might end up enjoying it (:

Full sandwich combo + extra side
Ross W.

It is located in a small food hall with limited parking, so I suggest getting there early. The pastrami sandwiches are made to order. They were so delicious, and I normally don't eat pastrami. The meat was generously portioned & not too fatty. We got a full sandwich (gold standard) as a combo, and it was enough for us two. The combo came with a drink & a side (chips or spring rolls). The pastrami is worth the hype.

The best
Sam C.

The Pastrami BunMi was one of my favorite bites of 2026 so far!! Genius to put pastrami in a viet sando and it worked so well!! Ask for the green sauce on the side (it taste like the cilantro sauce from a Lomo salato dish) . Bomb.com

We kept hearing that it was the best Mediterranean food they had ever tasted. The owners were so helpful in helping us figure out how much food we needed, so reassuring and accommodating.

The employee (owner maybe?) who helped us explained thoroughly about the menu and gave us suggestions. We ended up getting chicken shawarma combo and beef shawarma combo because we were hungry but the portion is humongous!!! This place has a shred style of meat (like al pastor in taco stand) and that's what I got but they should have the grilled meat on a sword looking stainless tool. The beef had the slight lamb-ish flavor which I like and the garlic spread wasn't too strong so I could smother everywhere. The salad was also very very good. I want to learn how to make the dressing. It was insanely good. The restaurant has a small eat in space. 3-4 two persons tables. We took our foods home but if you were to eat inside your food will be served on a wooden tray. I'll be coming back for their Borek and sandwich.

But once you walk in, you're greeted by welcoming staff members and delicious food! It was our first time there so we had to try the popular fish and chips dish. We also ordered their coconut shrimp and cajun salmon dish. The coconut shrimp was one of the best I've ever had! It came out piping hot and the coconut taste was prominent. I'm not a big fish person but this place converted me! The Cajun salmon was perfectly seasoned and paired well with the garlic rice. It was crispy but not over cooked. The fish and chips were light but flavorful. And the portion size was a plus! Everything we got out was delicious and was large enough to share. Will come back again to try other menu items. As a note, it gets really busy around 12 so either come early or make a reservation!

There was a line when I got here during dinner time, but the line was moving pretty quickly. Services were prompt, and our servers were very friendly. They were also very attentive. We ordered lobster bisque, fish and chips, shrimp taco, and fish taco. The lobster bisque was very flavorful with the perfect texture (it was not too thick or too watery)! It has a lot of lobster meat in it. The shrimp and fish inside the taco was very fresh. The fish had a very crispy batter, but not overly thick. The fish was not oily, and fish was flavorful! The chips was crispy! The kale salad that came with the fish and chips was a surprise! The salad dressing was a bit sweet. It was refreshing. I will come back again for sure! This become my favorite fish and ship restaurant in Los Angeles!
