I tried the Combo bahn mi and the Pork Belly bahn mi. Both tasted good and were affordable. This venue sells fresh bread and day old bread. I was tempted to buy some but I was on my way out the city. I really like the sandwiches and want to come back for more. You can tell the veggies are fresh and that they make the sandwiches fresh to order.

I was the second customer on a Friday morning. I needed to grab Banh Mis to-go, but the smell of pho was wafting into the dining area tempted me back for lunch. I ordered a custom Banh Mi not on the menu and the woman was nice enough to accommodate. I also grabbed a pork eggroll as I was heading out the door. Both Banh Mis and Eggroll were delicious. I devoured them without taking pictures. The veggie to meat ratio was on point. Bookmarking this place for next time I'm in town.

Ingredient list for the Vietnamese bread

Whenever I have a hankering for banh mi I always have Lee's Bakery in the rotation. The sandwiches are a bit small compared to others, but the taste is there. Their version is a bit drier than others I've had in the area, and they don't stuff it with as many veggies in my experience. But the bread is really phenomenal and fresh. They even offer instructions for reheating, although I'll say the freshness and quality of the bread is indistinguishable when served hot or cold. I also love that they sell bread by itself for the low-low (3 for $1.50 if I remember correctly). They also sell day-old bread at an even more discounted price... but trust me, the bread is still just as good. The service was friendly. Inside was relatively clean, and had a typical carryout feel with a few tables. I'll always have extra love for any place that tells you the ingredients they use for baked goods. Great prices, good food. No hassle, no complaints!

This is going to be my need additional of places to frequent. The place is small and seems to have a high level of people traffic whether it is to sit down or take-out. I chose to wait about 10 minutes to get a table on a Saturday afternoon. Ordered chicken and shrimp combo pho. the chicken was real breast. wow! totally shocked. Shrimp was skimpy. I think only 3 were in the bowl. the price for the bowl was very reasonable. tasty. Shrimp spring roll was good too. I will definitely come back!

Le Lee Combo Sandwich (Traditional)
Christina K.

Love the no frills vibes. I went for an early lunch with a friend and it was completely empty. We were seated right away. I got the combo that comes with a bowl of pho and a sandwich. I will say I wasn't super impressed with the pho, the soup was pretty plain and didn't stand out much to me and there wasn't much meat or anything but the portion itself was really generous. The le combo sandwich I got though is a different story and it really made the meal. The bread was fresh and had the perfect crisp to it. I can't remember everything that was in the banh mi, but the flavors all came together nicely. I would come here again and get just the banh mi but in terms of pho, I'd go somewhere else.

Hit up this spot. Was originally going for some pho. But ended up getting the lemongrass chicken vermicelli since I hadn't had that dish in a while. Delicious. Service was great. Professional & friendly. My wait wasn't terribly long either. I don't believe I was there longer than 14 minutes. The cafe was definitely bigger than I expected. Pretty basic and to the point. They sell their own bread, kimchi and other sofas & snacks. I'm looking forward to trying their pho when it gets cooler. P

Lee Combo Sandwich

Just letting yall know that the fish banhmi is also a buss option, as well as the bbq chicken banhmi (which maintains its most popular banhmi status). Super easy and quick to order inside whether you're dining in or getting takeout. There's a couple chairs for you to sit and wait. They have laminated menus you can use. Overall, would come again for their banh mi!

Every time I come to Lee's, I know I'm going to have an incredible experience. This time I arrived on a Thursday afternoon, and the place was pretty packed when we walked in. We were immediately seated and given waters upon arrival. After a couple minutes, our server came back to ask us what we wanted. The whole process was so quick as our food came out probably about five minutes after we ordered! It was delicious as always! We were checked on several times, once even by who I believe to be Lee himself, and asked if we needed anything. The service was great, the food was even better, and don't even get me started on the prices. I got a whole half sandwich and a bowl of pho with plenty of leftovers for lunch the next day!

Spring Rolls (Salad Hand Roll)
Anna J.

Lees is a classic Buford Highway staple that you can't get enough of. It came here for lunch on a Friday and it was absolutely packed, but we were able to snag a table for our party of the three we got the spring rolls to start and we originally got two of them but honestly, we could've been fine with one because they were super filling super fresh. Super delicious honestly I could have a whole point of those. then of course, the showstopper I had the Fish banh mi and it lives up to expectations and exceeded them. The vegetables were super fresh and the bread was absolute to die for not to mention this place is super affordable and the staff is super great. Definitely can't wait to come back.

Spring Rolls

Over 10 years later...this is my first time back since my last review YEARS ago! I ordered the seafood pho this time around and it was so flavorful. The spring rolls were solid as well. And I got a half chicken bahn mi as part of their dine-in combo and of course, it was still a winner. It started getting busy around lunchtime but that just means it's a popular spot.

This small restaurant has of the best pho and absolutely the best bahnmi in Atlanta. The bread is nice and crispy on the outside and soft on the inside (not too hard). The flavors are exceptional and it's the only place I've come across so far that offer fish (which was delicioius). Also the seafood pho was PACKED and the portions were huge. The service was friendly as well.

Vermicelli Noodles with Grilled Pork
Feng W.

Lee's Bakery is truly the epitome of a hidden gem. Tucked away in a small plaza off of Buford Hwy in Doraville, the food here is delicious! The service is super quick, they manage to get the food out within 15 minutes of ordering. We were seated super quickly as well, and not only that, the kind lady offered to switch our seat closer to the fan since it was 93 degrees out. Ambiance reminds me of a local restaurant which is super nice considering how there are not many locally owned restaurants anymore. 10/10!!

Millie C.

Came here for lunch and it was pretty busy. The bbq pork spring rolls were pretty good, it was packed but the pork was really sweet. The pho broth was also on the sweeter side here. But the noodles and portion was good. The bun bo hue wasn't very spicy but the noodles were cooked well. I also asked to sub for different meat. I would say the soup was okay, not very spicy and the flavor wasn't strong in fish sauce. Overall, still a solid place to get a quick and affordable bite.

Ask the Community - Lee's Bakery

For the vermicelli, do they offer any sauce besides fish?

Did Lee's change their bread!?!? I haven't been there in about a year, so I went on 2/4/21 to get a bahn mi... the bread was soft and chewy, not the crusty bread I remember and love =( So disappointing!

Any idea if they're open today? Tried calling them but no one picks the phone.

I was there Friday and yesterday and they were open. Yes I am a fan of Lee's. The remodel was minimal but the food tastes the same.

Michelin Star Little Sparrow is one of those restaurants I look forward to whenever I'm back in…read moreAtlanta. It captures that wonderful Parisian brasserie feeling without trying too hard--the banquettes, heavy drapes, soft lighting, beautiful tableware and attentive service. Everything feels considered. And then there's the food. The menu is small, the prices are not, but they execute what they do exceptionally well. I was tucked into a beautiful banquette and taken care of by Keenan, who was lovely throughout dinner--warm, polished, knowledgeable and attentive without hovering. First things first: do not skip the bread service. The warm levain baguette arrives wrapped in Little Sparrow-branded paper with their gorgeous butter, EVOO and Maldon salt. It sounds simple. It isn't. That butter sitting in fragrant olive oil with those little pops of sea salt, smeared onto hot, crusty bread? Heaven. Sometimes the simplest things tell you everything you need to know about a kitchen. My usual order here is the chicken schnitzel, which I love, but I promised myself I would branch out. I ordered the Cabillaud Frites--cod with tartar sauce--and Little Sparrow's interpretation of fish and chips is anything but ordinary. The cod arrived as beautifully fried little rounds with a deeply golden, crisp exterior and tender, delicate fish inside. Hot, crunchy, moist, perfectly cooked. The house tartar sauce was delicious. And because apparently I needed more decadence, Keenan brought me garlic aioli for the frites. Yes, please. And those frites. Lordy. Crisp, deeply savory and dangerously easy to keep eating long after you've told yourself you're finished. Dip one into that garlic aioli and good luck stopping. I skipped cocktails this time because I was saving precious real estate for dessert. I usually order the chocolate soufflé, although I continue to wish they would rotate the soufflé flavors. Give me Grand Marnier! And at $22, that soufflé is definitely an investment in dessert theater. Instead, I took the coconut cake back to my hotel. Unfortunately, this was the one miss of the evening. It was overwhelmingly sweet and lacked the richness and complexity I expected from a kitchen operating at this level. It tasted surprisingly ordinary compared with everything that preceded it. I'd skip it next time and return to the soufflé. That small disappointment doesn't change how I feel about Little Sparrow. The dining room is beautiful. The service feels polished and gracious. Even the restrooms and little sitting area carry through the aesthetic. There is an attention to detail here that I appreciate--from the china and menus to the lighting and presentation. Little Sparrow isn't inexpensive, but I don't come here looking for inexpensive. I come because they take seemingly familiar French dishes, focus on technique and ingredients, and make them memorable. If you're anywhere near Atlanta's Westside or the Design District--or frankly, even if you're not--make the detour. Make a reservation, settle into a banquette, order the bread, and get some of that food in your face. Life is too short not to eat well. Get out there and find your next meal.

Solid food though could be a bit more adventurous and a true bistro…read more Service: when I ask for a recommendation, don't repeat the entire menu to me. Make recommendations. And when you do make recommendations you avoid the pate bc you don't like pickles. Um. OK. I ordered a glass of Pastis after the meal and it was barely a shot. Come on. It came w waaaaay too much tepid water and I'm glad I stopped the server from pouring bc it would've been as tasty and weak as a postage stamp. Who are these servers?

Everything was DELICIOUS. The scallion bubble pancake came out HOT, like hurt-to-touch HOT. It was crispy and airy. It was served with a side of mild curry sauce. The noodles, lamb, and eggplant came out hot temperature-wise as well, but they were also hot spice-wise, especially the cumin lamb. The spice levels cleared my sinuses, LOL. But though I struggled with the spice, I kept on eating because all of the dishes were delicious and flavorful. The tender lamb was served on little skewers. The dry fried eggplant was super crispy; the pieces were shaped like spicy fries. I liked Grandma's noodles even more. The noodles had that bouncy, chewy, hand-pulled feel and were covered in vinegar & hot chili oil. I appreciated the portions. Despite being an appetizer, Grandma's Noodles came out on a large plate, and for being small plates, the eggplant and lamb were pretty filling. The service was also friendly and attentive. My food came out quick, and the staff constantly kept my glass of water filled. My only annoyance was the $1 charge for the bowl of white rice, but the food and service more than made up for that small, inexpensive annoyance.

Personally I like my tomato soups extra thick and creamy, which isn't how I would describe this one. However if that's not your style, this may be for you. I got it with a multi grain roll and chocolate chip cookie and when the roll was dipped in the soup, it was exceptional. And the cookie tasted nice and fresh. There's a free, private lot for parking, and lots of seating indoors and outdoors. The interior is adorable, drenched in yellows and reds, and the staff is very friendly and happy to give a recommendation. A great lunch option if you're over by Blandtown.

The noodle soup was a major letdown. When it arrived, I couldn't find a single speck of actual meat on the pork belly - it was literally 100% fat. I was in disbelief, I thought the meat fell off into the soup, there wasn't any inside. this was completely inedible, and I had to separate the pork belly on my plate. On top of that, there was absolutely no meat on the bone or any marrow inside the bone. It was literally just a bare bone thrown in with the noodles. Even the egg was overcooked and served whole, instead of being cut in half like it is pictured on the menu. Thankfully I ordered a second dish of protein. The Hainanese chicken was supposed to be the star of the show. While the initial bite with the yellow rice was decent, something felt off as I kept eating. It just didn't taste freshly cooked and lacked a real, natural chicken flavor. When the server asked how everything was, I pointed out the plate of separated fat and explained the issue with the pork belly. They were apologetic but "that's how it is." Overall, it was a very disappointing experience with lot of room for improvement.
