All the staff are super sweet. The food is always tasting so fresh. I have went many times and I have always had a very good experience.

Food was very good, very fresh and they offer a pretty wide variety of food - banh mi, plates, salads and sides. The portions are satisfying and the flavors are like no other local sandwich outlet. The main difference is that they do bake their own bread - it ain't Paris but it couldn't be fresher. Shoutout to Real Italian Deli- same concept. It's not about the atmosphere- there was a steady stream of takeout, including me. The place itself is dark and unappealing but the food is outstanding. They used to bake and sell full-size baguettes; no more. There's plenty of great menu choices. read more

Apparently I miss ordered but what a disappointing salad. They made it right. For future reference "House pickle" needs to be interpreted as all pickled carrots and radishes. If you say no house pickle you get this as pictured. read more

La Baguette Vietnamese Sandwiches - Vietnamese Near Me - Palm Desert, California

We stopped in here for lunch after a long and exhausting day exploring Mt. San Jacinto. We were a party of 6 with varied tastes, two kids and a veggie-leaning adult. We were greeted with super friendly service and pushed two tables together to accommodate our larger party. The restaurant itself is a little small and the bathrooms were out of order. We got tofu and shrimp spring rolls, sesame balls, a hibiscus milk tea, a spam and egg rice bowl, a tofu sandwich, a combo sandwich, a pork sandwich, a kids beef and rice bowl and a kids chicken and rice bowl. Every single item was DELICIOUS! The spring rolls were ENORMOUS and came with a creamy peanut sauce and a ginger sauce. The spicy ham on the sandwich was so good. I stole my daughter's lemonade - It was amazing too! It was on the pricy side for Bahn mi but the portions and quality made it worth it, plus the awesome service. read more

Okay you've probably heard buzz about a bahn mi or Vietnamese spring rolls but you haven't really had them until you try them here. There's a popular chain of Bahn mi sandwiches where you get plenty of bread and even a fair amount of lettuce but if you were hoping for a sandwich full of meat and daikon and flavor well skip them and head to this place! Only the big boys were finishing a whole sandwich. We had a vermicelli bowl with chicken and shrimp spring rolls. We didn't finish because we got full before the plates were empty. The tastes are bright and full of flavor. The peanut sauce was a hit for the spring rolls and I had both fish sauce and ginger sauce. The fish sauce is to liquid to really cling but what flavor. The ginger has a superb front taste and an ending that brings the heat. Ingredients are totally fresh and quality. Servings are plentiful and prices are reasonable. Sure friendly and approachable staff ready to guide you into gastronomical bliss. And the restaurant though small and unassuming in a strip mall is clean and pleasant. Bon apetite read more

Not sure what happened bc this is one of my favorite places in the desert. Hands down the best Vietnamese. The staff go above and beyond and everyone cares deeply. However, yesterday I ordered shrimp spring rolls and they were tasteless. No mint, basil or pickled carrots to speak of. The noodles in these rolls are typically very thin but these were like spaghetti. I ordered 3 orders (9 spring rolls) for a gathering and I was mortified after raving so much about them. Absolutely tasteless. Please go back to your original recipe. I don't want to lose this place. read more

Really nice fresh baguette pretty delicious vegetarian bahn mi .. has to ask them to add basil and mint but in general very satisfying. Spring rolls very good . Peanut sauce was lacking a lil ... strange extra charges on my order in the web page went from 27 to 37 without being asked I would have tipped but max tip on to Go order in my opinion should be a choice .. but enjoyed fresh and tasty . Thanks la baguette we will come again read more

Had them previously when they were first opened, and the food was awesome. My one small complaint was, how long it took to get my sandwich. But not that they've been in business for a while, they definitely stepped it up and fined tuned everything. Food is still tasty, but is prepared so much faster. 10/10 read more

Surprising but pleasant find for Palm Desert - good spot to hit up if youre craving a good banh mi! Casual counter service restaurant, our orders were taken quickly and when I didn't order a drink, they even put it water in a to go cup for me :) The combo sandwich was solid, with a good amount of fillings. They forgot my jalapenos the first time but once I asked they quickly gave me some to put in my sandwich. There are about 4-5 tables inside, enough seating if you're grabbing a quick bite. Located in a strip mall, with plenty of parking. Good stop for a casual lunch! read more

I may have come on an off day, but this was just okay. The service was kind of awkward, as when we walked in, no one greeted us, the lady just kind of looked at us and continued doing what she was doing. I even questioned to myself if they were still opened, but they were. It was a bit unwelcoming at first. I also think it is ridiculously overpriced. We ordered 3 sandwiches & one tea with boba and it was over $50. For that amount, I was expecting it to be great, especially with the good reviews..it was just okay. They were busy though, so many other people like the place. Maybe we ordered wrong, but the place is called La Baguette. The shop is nestled in the corner with plenty of parking. It isn't somewhere to go to if you want a quiet place to eat. I think they mostly do take-out orders. read more

We grabbed sandwiches from this place before heading to the Living Desert Zoo, and they did not disappoint. I got the tofu, and it was delicious. We also got the tofu fries, which our girls loved. read more

YUMMMM. I drive back and forth from AZ to CA often and this is always my spot for lunch or dinner. I order on their website, pick it up and eat on the road. Flavors are authentic, order is always right and I LOVE that they put pate in their Bahn mi's. Their pork, beef and chicken are all wonderful. Bread is nice and crispy, not too thick. The pickled carrots and daikon is plenty in the sandwich and brings out so much flavor. Service has always been efficient and friendly when I pick up the to-go. read more

Went to Palm springs for a weekend trip and was stuck in traffic for hours so I was hungry and needed to use the restroom. Did a quick Yelp check getting if the frwy and saw this spot. Was curious if a bahn mi way out in palm springs would be any good. It's a fairly small establishment tucked away in a corner next to a fast food joint. I wasn't expecting non Asian owners, county music, and so many different choices. I got the pork bahn mi to go and a Vietnamese coffee. The sandwich was surprisingly good. I asked for the pate which is an extra charge which may have been extra charge. It's a necessary ingredient in a legit bahn mi so it was weird that you have to ask for it but I guess they have to cater to their demographics. The bread still had a good crunch to it when I got back to the house and the flavors of everything went well together. The Vietnamese coffee tasted like it should and was stong as expected. Overall good experience and thinking of getting some for the drive home. read more

La Baguette Vietnamese Sandwiches - Pork bahn mi - Vietnamese Near Me - Palm Desert, California

I love a great banh mi, but they're not that easy to find. Fortunately, La Baguette Vietnamese Sandwiches makes a great banh mi. The banh mi my wife and I ordered was on a freshly baked baquette with pate, mayo, pickled daikon, carrots, cilantro, cucumber, jalapeno and soy sauce. It was really filling and delicious ---- all the flavors came together just right! To complement it, I had the fresh spring rolls --- wrapped in rice paper with lettuce, pickled daikon, carrots, cucumber, mint, thai basil, and verimcelli and served with delicious dipping sauce. The ingredients for both the banh mi and the spring rolls were very fresh. The gentleman behind the counter who took our order and served us was very friendly. The ambiance is nice, but definitely nothing fancy. You're there to eat, not linger. The food is the star here --- and the food, for the quantity and quality that you get, is very reasonably priced. read more

The food was delicious and we were able to meet the owner! A humble and good man running his business there for 6yrs now. His bahn mis are worth buying. We highly recommend his place and hope to come back when we visit the area again read more

This is one of the best Banh mi places in Palms Springs! I got the Combo Banh Mi (5/5) that comes with pork belly and ham. It's $13 for one and they load it up with a lot of meat, generous veggies, and you must get it with the pate on! The bread was nice and pillowy on the inside with a good crunch on the outside. I really love how they spread a generous slab of pate and mayo on the fresh bread, then add on huge portions of pork belly and ham. They don't skimp on the pickled veggies and cilantro and jalapeños to balance out the fattiness of the banh mi. I was filled for hours after eating one and it satisfied my craving for Asian food while in Palms Springs. I did wish the bread was a little more warm/toasted but it was a great experience with the taste, portion size, and freshness! read more

We wanted a sandwich for a flight. This was perfect. Just off the freeway. If you can order ahead online you should try and do that. It was crowded but they were working as fast as they could to get through the line. Vietnamese iced tea lemonade. Yum. Like a Thai iced tea but not overly sweet. Ban Mi tofu was perfect. I'll be back!! read more

Very very very slow service. Took 40 mins just to get a sandwich. Unless you have nothing planned for the rest of the day, don't come here. No one worked with any urgency. I missed the birth of my son because they were so slow. read more

Nice place- cozy . Food is ok, nothing special. The service however is bad. Waited a while 18 min for a vermicelli Bowl and mind you, there was only one table and no one else was waiting. There's another Vietnamese restaurant near by, I would rather go back there as that place is more attentive than this. I can see the people in the kitchen and they don't look busy at all. read more

La Baguette Vietnamese Sandwiches - Chicken Banh Mi - Vietnamese Near Me - Palm Desert, California

Don't order the pork belly. It's served cold and flavorless. For $15 you would expect more. The chicken was ok hence the 2 stars and not 1

La Baguette is a small restaurant in a strip mall, located in an area that is filled with strip malls. The atmosphere is pleasant, and the people friendly, if non-attentive, i.e., walking off for minutes at a time when you are standing at the counter without saying anything like, "I'll be right back." Anyway, they bake their own bread for their banh mi sandwiches on the premises, and the bread tastes good. We ordered the chicken banh mi sandwiches. The chicken was a bit dry. The vegetables and such tasted good, and there was a pate that also had a good flavor. Unfortunately, it seemed like there needed to be more of the food inside the bread. Consequently, the sandwich was surprisingly dry. The restaurant does serve dipping sauce, which we didn't order. If ordering the chicken sandwich, this might be a good approach. If the chicken weren't so dry, and there was simply about 30% more of everything, it would have been a good tasting sandwich. It wasn't bad. It just wasn't really good, either. The restaurant appeared to be clean, and the bathroom was very nicely done, and also seemed clean. Bear in mind that my review is only of the chicken banh mi sandwich, and may not apply to anything else. read more

Food was awesome! Combo Bahm mi is where it's at! Fresh bread and the pickled carrots and daikons were a nice touch. Kids meals came with a lot of food and the kids really enjoyed the food. Came with a fresh made lemonade that was awesome. Service was polite and welcoming. Music inside the restaurant was fun and upbeat California reggae which is my jam! Overall great experience! read more

La Baguette Vietnamese Sandwiches - No basil or mint and 1 little cilantro strand - Vietnamese Near Me - Palm Desert, California

OMG! One work to describe this restaurant is surprising. Firstly one can order from an app or online which was nice. Secondly the food is amazing. I ordered a grilled chicken banh mi sandwich and an order of the fresh spring rolls. My food was ready at the appointed time. The restaurant itself was very simple in decor and small in size. Since I picked up my food at 4pm I cannot tell you about the dine in crowd. I initially thought that $27 not including tax and tip was a little steep but the portions were quite large. The sandwich was on a large baguette and it tasted yummy from the first bite. The chicken did not seem grilled to me but it was so good I did not care. Not too salty and the vegetables were so fresh. Needless to say I gobbled the whole thing in minutes. The spring rolls were also fairly large and packed with all the good stuff. There shrimp were more like large prawns. Honestly I have not seen prawns this large is any spring roll so far. The pork and the other items in the filling were fresh and tasty. The dipping peanut sauce was quite normal. The only bad thing was there were 3 huge rolls. Ok it wasn't bad.... This was a great meal and I will be back in October to try out their other dishes. A true gem in Palm Desert. read more

Saw the reviews on Yelp and was craving Bánh mì so I drove over to La Baguette. It's not all that hard to find, tucked between a nail salon and a Pollo Loco. Not a lot of seating, four - four tops. Most of the customers when we arrived were taking their food to go. We were glad we had looked at the menu on the website because the menu on the wall was not very helpful. The owner was literally in the process of replacing the menu on the wall with a nice, updated menu, with pictures of all the food. That will be helpful. One of the first things we noticed when we were ordering is that they make all their baguettes in-house daily. The bread is amazing. I ordered the lemongrass chicken Bánh mì. 100% the BEST Bánh mì I have ever had. My wife got the chicken salad bowl and absolutely loved it. The ingredients were all super fresh. Veggies crispy, chicken perfectly cooked. We also each ordered Vietnamese Coffees. If you love strong coffee, these are a must-try. Friendly service, clean and comfortable, great food. Adding La Baguette to our regular rotation. read more

My family and I decided to check out this banh mi spot. When we arrived there was a decent amount of people waiting but we didn't think much of it. We ordered around 1pm and an hour after it finally came out. Not sure why or how it takes a full hour to make 4 banh Mi amongst other items but it was outrageous. Not to mention the menu stated banh mi comes with pate and instead they added so much mayo For an hour wait the banh was under average and we will not be back. read more

This was our first time here ... I believe there was only one front staff and then one chef making the food so we waited close to an hour for our food. But they were very nice there and the food is good . Next time we will order ahead of time because no one should wait close to an hour for a sandwich. You get your food quicker even in fine dinning . Also want to mention they were out of a few items we wanted to order :/ boba was out took read more

I'v heard about this place for a while now and decided to come here for lunch the other day. This place is good. Bahn Mi sandwich: 4 stars I think I was persuaded into ordering the wrong menu item for me, but it was still good, and I am looking forward to coming back. I was not provided a receipt, but I think I got the pork shoulder sandwich (Thit Nuong). I arrived at this place during lunchtime and asked the guy at the register what I should order. I told him I was in the mood for a pork sandwich and asked if the Pork Belly or Combo Sandwich was best. He recommended the Pork Shoulder (Thit Nuong) Sandwich since it had a lemongrass marinade - a popular item. Thit Nuong: 4 stars! Yummy Fresh baked bun, fresh veggies (house daikon/carrot pickle, cucumber, jalapeno, cilantro) house mayo, edamame pate and lemongrass pork. Very good. The reason I give 4 star and not 5 is because I did not taste any lemongrass in the pork. In fact, this sandwich tasted like a regular BBQ pork sandwich sans BBQ sauce. The pork was tender, delicious, but did not have lemongrass / asian flavor I was craving. I will gladly come back to try the other sandwiches and some of the other dishes! yummy. read more

Located in a large shop area. Understated order-at-the-counter style and absolutely delicious! The sandwiches are very tasty and each item on the menu is customizable and veg or vegan friendly including the spring rolls. You even have three different vegan protein choices: crispy tofu, portabello mushroom or avocado. The staff is very helpful and the bread is baked on premises daily, creating a delicious aroma. read more

Classic hole in the wall eats. Adjacent to a 99 cent store and a Del Taco. Nice folks. Small menu. Low prices. Barb & I had a salad each. Big, fresh & tasty. The mushroom sauce is surprisingly spicy. Home made lemonade was a perfect thirst quencher. A return visit will necessitate that I buy a banh mi. read more

Had the barb mi and a Thai lemonade for lunch. Loved that the baguette was warm and fresh. Loved that was crunchy as it served as the foundation for a very tasty sandwich. Choose grilled pork for my protein. Great flavor and as it should with a Banh mi, it was complemented perfectly by the pickled vegetables. The pickled veggies had a nice crunch and pickled well. Service was good. The ambiance was ok. It is just a sandwich shop after all. read more

We stopped in and grab some take out here and were not disappointed! My husband got the grilled pork sandwich and said it was excellent. I had the grilled pork rice bowl dish, and it was a large portion, so delicious And I definitely had leftovers.. I am also a sucker for pate and this pork version definitely did not disappoint. I paired it with some crackers that I had at home due to a gluten intolerance that makes it easier for me to do that. It did come with bread. I can't wait to come in again. read more
