    Baby Egg Rolls and a Mango Drink
    Ilse H.

    I am not sure if I went on a bad day or something but my last visit wasn't the best. Service is very unfriendly. I walked in and no acknowledgment whatsoever. Heck, not even a simple hi. It was more of a "hurry tfu and order already". I ordered. Prices are now 2 dollars for 5 baby egg rolls. As I waited for my food, I literally saw all the staff gathered together in a circle and talked or gossip. Mind you, it was only 3, but like, who is working on my food? Finally after 20 minutes for two sandwiches and baby egg rolls, my order is ready. My partner asked for Sriracha sauce and the girl at the counter said "it's right there you can just grab it" idk, to me, it came off rude. I totally get the hating your job portion but at least fake it till ya make it lol The food was ok. The sandwich tasted fine but I wish it were a little more hot. Maybe my drive home is what cooled it down, but aww man, definitely room in improvement for service.

    Iced Thai tea

    Amazing food, great prices. Thai tea was sooo good. Fast service and friendly staff. Definitely would come back.

    4. BBQ Pork Sandwich
    Nick C.

    I didn't expect to find the best Banh Mi I'd ever had to be in Modesto. But Le Saigon is legit. I asked the girl working what was her favorite sandwich and followed her order to get the Pork belly sandwich and BBQ beef sandwich. The pork belly sandwich by far is the tastiest banh Mi I'd ever had, the fatty pork belly and sweet/savory sauce that was mayo based mixed with pickled pickled veggies and crispy baguette is a mighty fine combo. I had to wait a bit for the sandwich to be made but it was worth it. The store also doubles selling Asian food and condiments but the ambiance reminds me of sitting in a restaurant in Asia with a few seats to the side. I don't know when I'll come back to Modesto but I look forward to eating this Banh Mi again.

    What a cute, no-frills place to get banh mi in Modesto! My husband and I were in the area for my dog's annual and we didn't want to sit down at a restaurant. It was a hot day and banh mi sounded like a great idea. Le Saigon caught my eye. I noticed some of the mixed reviews but generally the banh mi seemed promising. The exterior of the shop is pretty ghetto. It's next to a gas station and a liquor store. Then again, it's Modesto. If you blink you'll drive right by. There's some unmarked parking in the back and only one disability spot in the front. The interior of the shop is teeny. There's a small area to sit if you wish, but the majority of people get their food to go. The AC was blasting when I went in, so it was comfortable. Le Saigon also offers some vermicelli bowls as well as spring rolls, and even various soups. Catering and party trays are available. I went for the cold cut combo banh mi for myself and the pork belly banh mi for my husband. I also ordered some baby egg rolls. For $2 per order that price is hard to beat! I also got a Thai tea w/ boba for myself, but they have plenty of other options if you want something else to drink. My order was ready in less than 10 minutes. I was watching the staff prepare various orders while I waited. They looked pretty efficient and seemed to have a system down. We drove off to find a shaded spot to enjoy our banh mi and baby egg rolls at, and I couldn't wait to dig in. Someone said that the banh mi was too small for their liking. I strongly disagree. It was the perfect size for lunch and also filled with pickled veggies. I was very happy with the ratio of meat to veggies, and while the bread was not crunchy, I don't have an issue with it. It still tasted fresh. The baby egg rolls were so addicting, haha. We actually went back to order more to take home for dinner later, they were so crispy and paired so well with the sweet chili sauce. Next time I want to order the Vietnamese egg rolls. I can only imagine how good those are if the baby egg rolls were delicious already. I enjoyed the Thai tea, and they even used the ice that I like. The boba was decent, it was a bit too soft and chewy, but I'm not going to complain much about free boba anyway. The 16 oz was perfect for me, but if I wanted more Thai tea, next time I'd definitely get the 24 oz since it's only $1 more. I'd definitely recommend supporting Le Saigon for your banh mi fix! It's rare enough to find good Asian food in the Central Valley, let alone banh mi. The next time I'm in the area (which isn't often), I would love to try some other items!

    4. BBQ Pork Sandwich

    I thought the banh mi was okay. The bread was super fresh, but a bit hard to eat. The pork was pretty fatty. Service was okay. The space itself is not particularly inviting; I would not want to sit and eat a meal there. For that reason, I don't think I would return.

    Thumbs down

    Im not a review guy but the service here is terrible. The young skinny lady at the counter did not greet us or welcome us once we were ready to order at the counter . Red flag #2 they took 20 minutes to make 2 sandwitches . Red flag#3 the bread was stail the meat on both sandwitches cold like out the fridge type maybe microwaved very lightly. Red flag #4 my stomach hurt after consuming 2 bites off . I have had very delicouse bhan mi sandwitches in other establishments and food is prepared with love it shows . i dont recomend this place for bhan mi sandwitches.

    Custard Bun!  So sweet and light and fluffy ! Taste like vanilla / condensed milk

    Sandwich's are so full with great quality meat, packed and filled with the perfect ingredients they definitely aren't skimping here !! 10/10 best bahn mi sandwich I've ever had !! , the sweetest woman in the front helped me as a first timer , she was the best and I am very happy with the such great quality and kindness !

    Baby Egg Rolls .. you're seeing the bottom of the bag that ripped open from the broth.
    Ana W.

    Ordered through door dash and half my broth was gone. I got Udon soup and baby egg rolls. The broth that spilled out of the soup soaked the egg rolls bag which caused the bag to rip on the bottom and all my egg rolls fell out when I was removing them from the plastic bag except the one I ate straight from the bag. Udon soup was missing fried garlic and the broth was very very bland. It seems like it was supposed Khao piek sen which is like a Lao chicken noodle soup. Idk if that's what they're trying to go for but it could be improved. Egg rolls tasted like ground chicken and pepper. Tasted like McDonald's chicken nuggets honestly. This place has really gone downhill over the past few years. It's a shame because it used to be one of my top 3 spots to go for Asian food.

    NOT SATISFIED!!! When I open the box of Beef Broccoli which is a very small food I have seen.read more

    We were mtg w/a friend who lives in Tracy. There was nothing open on a Sunday in Atwater (the 1/2…read moreway point for all of us), so we decided on Modesto. This place had good reviews so I was excited since I haven't had great Vietnamese food in Fresno. Was hoping this would be a treat. But it wasn't. Service wasn't great. No one ever checked on us to see if we needed anything. It wasn't crazy busy in there either since we there at off hours. Ambiance is standard for this kinda place. Whatever. Pretty big menu tho. Decided to do appetizers for dinner. ORDER: Crispy Crab Cakes: There was no discernible crab in them. Not even fake crab. No real flavor inside. It just tasted of overly greasy crust. But it was crispy I'll say. Choked down 1 & gave up. Fried Rolls: Normally the thing I love most at Vietnamese restaurants. This was mushy inside & bland. Pork & Shrimp Spring Roll: Wasn't filled very much. Like barely there noodles. One section I ate had none but had white radish strips, so I thought it was just lettuce, pork, shrimp & radish. I don't like a ton ton of noodles but it needed triple the amt to be an avg amt of noodle. The best thing about this was the peanut sauce. I give them high marks for their peanut sauce. Fried got pork vermicelli & shrimp spring rolls. Her high praise was "they gave a lot of meat." But otherwise her reaction was "it's ok." Other friend got garlic butter chicken wings. I had one. There was no garlic flavor on the wings but there was a bit of garlic & onion on the plate w/them. Otherwise, they tasted like naked wings. I like naked wings & admit they were cooked well. She also got brisket & flank pho w/out noodles. She said meat was tender & delicious. I really really wanted to like them more than I did. This is only the 2nd or 3rd time I've ever reviewed something where I gave less than 4 stars. Not my cup of tea, but glad they seem to have found their audience since they don't have poor reviews overall. Happy for them. Still on the quest for good Central Valley Vietnamese!
