I still prefer Lee's over any banh mi places. Special combo has always been my go to and a Vietnamese iced coffee. The baguettes are always cripsy on the outside and soft on the inside. Veggies are always fresh, never had a bad one at this location. Today i tried their ube coffee and it was pretty good! Service is always quick, i usually order ahead on line. Sometimes the line is a long but it moves quickly anyway. They have a mini market and prepared food inside as well. A few months back we ordered the same day a few platters of mixed asian and western sandwiches for a party and it was a hit. I like that it's individually wrapped too. read more

Lee's Sandwiches was one of the first bánh mì shops in Little Saigon. Their original restaurant on Bolsa is still there, and over the years they've opened franchises throughout the West Coast. This particular location in Garden Grove is huge and beautifully decorated, but unfortunately, all the razzmatazz can't make up for what I felt was a loss of authentic bánh mì. Everything tasted overly commercialized and factory-produced--bland, dry, and almost like cardboard. The flavorful Vietnamese-style bánh mì I remember is gone. In my opinion, this location feels more like a fast-food joint than the Lee's Sandwiches I used to know. The pâté chaud was a joke. Instead of a flaky crust, it was chewy and cardboard-like. The croissant wasn't any better. The desserts were even more disappointing. They looked prepackaged and artificial. I was debating whether to buy them, but my husband was rushing me because the cashier line was long, so I went ahead and got a few. Big mistake. The coconut dessert tasted like soap, and the other items seemed undercooked. They used to have employees filling dessert orders fresh as you ordered them. Nothing felt prepackaged. Now, I saw only one employee selling prepackaged food. What a waste of money. I definitely won't be coming back to this location. That said, I do want to add: if you want to try Lee's Sandwiches, go to the original location on Bolsa. I was there about six months ago, and the food was still fine. read more

It would be a 2 but given nice service so I bumped up to 3. Lee is the 1st big name in the VNese community and this location is their 2nd and biggest & cleanest plus open 24hrs (from 9-10pm til morning through the window). They took over Blockbuster video place with decent parking lot (bit abit messy due to homeless), big inside, clean and well organized. This place is the only shop decorated for the holidays (especially for the Christmas/New Year & Tet). Staff are nice (majority) and friendly and helpful. I ate their breads before, and most of their stuffs and it just below average. The bread is just not crunchy and blanched, the meats are dried and tasted just okey. Their egg rolls are just tasteless, blanched and soft instead of crunchy and hot. I can say that it's the worst I ever ate given that I ate all in little Saigon. I knew about all these but somehow I just hoping it will be better but always ask myself "why?" keep coming back. The only thing that is good is their coffee, there was a period that I was addicted to their coffee but not anymore, I'm aging so I have to cut it off a lot, but it's still good. read more

I always go to lees for their strong iced coffee but realized I've never had one of their sandwiches! So this morning I got a breakfast sandwich and a lunch sandwich to take to work. I got the bacon egg and cheese breakfast sandwich. Great size sandwich that I shared it and it tasted really good too! For lunch I got the ham turkey and cheese and it was delicious! What have I been missing out all this time!? read more

Im not sure what has happened to this 24 hour location, but the last two visits this week had me running to my car. The parking lot is dirty. Lots of trash. There were a few homeless outside. One was smoking a joint one was smoking a crack pipe. Both were out in the open a few feet from the door. A few other homeless just sat outside not bothering anyone. My iced Biscoff coffee looked nothing like the picture. There was no cookie on top. Their coffee is 75% ice. The spring rolls just sat on the counter at room temp with the sun beating down on them. Sandwiches run about $10 each. This location needs security. It needs a good cleaning outside. I am not a fan anymore. read more

This location of the popular Vietnamese sandwich chain is open 24 hours (I think. At least they're open really late ordering through the window) I think the vibe is different during the day and late at night. Which could be said for most places. I felt fine, but it could probably feel a little sketch for some people when you're ordering near or past midnight. I was in the area on my way home and I just wanted to get a few baguettes. Ordering was really simple. You would just either order at the screen or from a person, but my transaction was really quick. Their baguettes are solid and such a great deal. Always a good place to get some bread when you just want a simple breakfast or to eat with butter or charcuterie. read more

If only i could give this place no star at all. This place gives zero fucks to their customer, doesnt even ask if youre picking up. Theyre all the way to back without giving two fucks to their customer. I had to catch a bus one day and mind you theres only two of us inside the store. And they're just walking around and i place the order on the kiosk machine so these bitches saw me placing an order, and ordered was placed 10minutes ago and theres literally nobody in there. Why does it take so much time to get the 6 pieces fucking beignets? How lazy could you all be? You dont like this job? FUCKING QUIT!!!!!!!! These people working there are rude. If you dont like your job QUIT YOUR JOB MADAFAKAS. Dumb stupid fucks read more

Delicious sandwiches! I know they have a low rating, and to be honest, I am not even sure why, since you really cannot go wrong with their classic sandwiches. If you want more meat, you can request for more for an additional charge. They do not do the fried pork belly that has been popular lately, but you can always get that at THH Sandwiches. As for service, their self-ordering kiosk was confusing, so I had to order at the counter. read more

I decided to try their biscoff drjnk. It was nice to get the app and also ended up getting a baguette and a canned drink of their Vietnamese coffee. This place has something for everyone. Food, snacks, and drinks. Would definitely come back to try more things. The people were helpful and I got my drink quickly. You can order in person or at the kiosk. read more

I wouldn't recommend this store highly. Previously, I ordered too many times number #11and paid more $$ for a substitute to a large croissant. They always placed a croissant inside the container box and cut it 1/2. But now I bought it the same as I did, they wrapped it like that, it looks like a tangled mess, and if it were you, would you want to eat it? I asked the staff member who was supervising that shift. She responded nonchalantly when I asked if, as I remembered, baguette #11 but substituted a croissant were usually cut in half and placed in a plastic container. She said, "Yeah, usually, but sometimes it's not necessary to put them in a container." I ignored her response; her service attitude showed a lack of concern for the customer. Therefore, I'm giving her a one-star rating for her handling of the situation and the way she presented the food. read more

The coffee at this location is a scam. I got a large biscoff and it came out to 8.29 after taxes and the drink I had was 75% ice. Got a refund and left, don't bother with getting another drink cause it'll probably be all ice again anyways. read more

My fiancé loves this place. He says Lees got him through college lol The food is cheap (used to be cheaper). But it is still a good value! We got a couple sandwiches. I like that they put a lot of veggies in there. The vegetarian items are my go-to! The macarons were so fresh! We got a dozen of them. They were assorted flavors. The matcha was actually my favorite one. I couldn't believe how soft they were. You can order from Lee's on Door dash! But to get the cheapest meal, stop into one of the locations. I haven't tried the coffee yet, but I hear that is great. I think they service was a quick. And the ambiance is laid back- it is a t-shirt and shorts kind of place. Nothing fancy. This is a good spot for cheap eats and Vietnamese coffee! read more

I don't know what's going on with this location but based on our last visit, this place is going downhill. We ordered a banh mi thit nuong (grilled pork) and a small chicken stick which was one of their new items. Talk about misleading photos. In the photos, both sandwiches are full and have spread portions to the bread, but after receiving our order, what a disappointment. There was barely any protein in the grilled pork sandwich, it was just filled with butter, little vegetables, and barely any meat. As for the grilled chicken stick, it was literally just bread and some pieces of chicken. Based on the quality of the sandwich and lack of portions for the inflated costs, I would advise Yelpers to go to other sandwich places where your money might get you more value. Another factor to now consider when coming to this location is all the neighboring transients. It does not feel safe as years past and I do appreciate them having security patrolling, but just know the security guard isn't always there, so be mindful of your surroundings. Such a shame that the quality control has gone down here because this use to be a very popular Lees sandwich place for all the locals. read more

Lee's Sandwiches - These were the saddest sandwiches we ever had. Not a good way to start January 2024. - Sandwiches Near Me - GardenGrove, California

I went to Lee's Sandwich because a friend had told me they sold Phin filters here. It was a bit of a search but I eventually found them in the store for only $4 each and ended up getting two. I also got their pork bun sandwich, which was filled with pickled veggies and grilled pork and was much larger than I anticipated. It was also very delicious and was only $5. The staff here was super friendly and helpful. I wanted to know which beans they used to make the Viet coffees and the staff pointed me to the Lee's Sandwich ground coffee so I bought some as well. The store itself is spacious and laid out pretty well. There are plenty of other snack items you can purchase. Just a tip, there are no dining seats in here so it is more of a grab and go space. I also grabbed a 12 pack of macarons for about $16. These macarons were really big and you can definitely taste the flavors on them. I liked that they labeled the box with the flavors so you'd know what you're getting. The macaron shells were very soft and I would have liked them to be a bit more firm. read more

Usually a hit or miss with customer service here depending on how many customers they're serving (if busy, then they give you mean looks; if not so busy, then they're more friendly). Nice to know they serve hot, fresh baguettes out of the oven, but not nice to see them throwing them your baguettes on the counter for you to pick up. read more

Asked for no ice and was given less than the actual drink, they then threw out 2 ozs of the drink when we asked for condensed milk?!? Even after we offered to pay extra.

The food was good but I dislike how every time I come here and order a "LARGE ICED COFFEE" I don't get my money's worth. It's pointless paying an extra dollar when I'm going to get ripped off with a bigger size cup that's filled with white foam half cup. I've brought it up to the lady in charge the first time but clearly nothing is going to change which is why I'm bringing it up to their attention. read more

Sandwiches were meh...the bread was stale and they barely filled it compared to other bahn mi places. The service was alright, but I can see why it has the rating it does. The place itself is large with a lot of options and pretty clean compared to other locations so that's a plus. We probably wouldn't come back or recommend it. read more

They need to fire everyone except the ladies making the sandwiches. Employees here are so useless that they think it's a privilege to serve the sandwiches. Everyone just stood there ignoring the bell and when they go to call out orders, they choose to only do one person than go to the register and stand around. Poor management and training and definitely destroyed the reputation of this franchise. I had to call the staff out and tell them to start giving people their food. They ignored and went to make drinks. The whole place was crowded bc everyone stood around waiting to get their orders. It took them 30 minutes to give me my single order of 1 sandwich. If the 2 guys there don't want to work then quit, but don't make everyone with kids and got places to be wait for their food. The bell kept ringing and they both ignored it. Placed order at 11:12pm and got my food 11:40pm. read more

This Lee's Sandwiches location was quite different from the typical ones I'm used to visiting. Instead of the usual sandwich shop vibe, this place felt more like an Asian food market, which was unexpected. I was hoping for the classic Lee's experience but got something quite different instead. I decided to order an iced coffee, but when it arrived, it was filled with ice cubes, making the drink mostly ice rather than coffee. I asked them politely to remake it with no ice and just a separate cup of ice on the side. Unfortunately, this request seemed to upset the staff, which was frustrating for me because I believe that when you're paying for a product, it should be made the way you want it. The whole situation left a sour taste in my mouth. The service overall was much slower than I anticipated. I ended up waiting around 39 minutes for my order with no clear explanation for the delay. That kind of wait time felt unnecessary and made the experience feel frustrating. When my food finally arrived, the bread was disappointingly hard--almost as hard as a rock. This was really a letdown because it made eating the sandwich difficult. On the bright side, the meat was well-seasoned and tasty, and once my iced coffee was made correctly, it was enjoyable. Despite some positive elements, the combination of slow service, the staff's attitude about a reasonable request, and the poor quality of the bread made me hesitant to return to this location. If you're used to the traditional Lee's Sandwiches, prepare for a different style here, which might not be what you're expecting. Given my experience, I don't think I'll be coming back anytime soon. I am giving it a 2 star due to the meat, since that was fresh. The bread.....no lol read more

My boyfriend and I ordered grilled pork sandwiches last night, and we both woke up with severe stomach aches. As the day went on, the symptoms got worse we experienced nausea, bad bowel movements, and overall feeling unwell. It ended up being so bad that my boyfriend had to call off work because he was not in any condition to go in. What concerns us most is that when we finally received our sandwiches, after waiting nearly 30 minutes, they were very cold. I've had this same sandwich at other locations and it's never been served like this, so it immediately raised a red flag. We want to share this to alert others, because the meat may not be safe to consume if it's being served this way. Really disappointing and concerning experience. read more

You're basically playing Russian roulette with your mouth every time you come here.

This is my favorite location for Lee's Sandwiches. It's a bit of a drive from where I live but when a restaurant is THAT good; it's worth it. First of all, the service is great. There's friendly and efficient cashiers. The place is very clean and organized inside. The bread is fresh, the coffee is fantastic and the smoothies are delicious. Sometimes they have free tote bags that they give out with purchases (I have two!) They're open past normal hours in comparison to most locations that close at 7 or 8pm. The area is a bit sketchy but they do have security guards which does help. In the late hours, you order through their window or on a kiosk. Can't go wrong with Lee's! read more
