Perfect when you need bread to pair with your home cooked stews. Only recently did I try out their banh mi. Pretty solid banh mi and seemingly large portion for the long baguette version, protein wasn't skimped. No complaints. They have some premade patters, baked/fried options like egg rolls or pate pastries, desserts and other options at the register for grab and go as well.

Yes there were a couple groups of customers waiting ahead of us, but even with a small rush that seems kinda ridiculous. Not even a true sit down restaurant would amount to that prep time. The chicken & waffle was decent in price, $12 for 3 pieces with 1 waffle, but nothing to write home about taste wise. I thought the chicken was a bit burnt, or maybe the oil isn't fresh so the skin color is on the darker side. What really annoyed me is that one of the workers walked out (prob end of her shift) visibly with a box of food, while we were still waiting for our order. Not a great look. Oh, and the restroom is out of order. Cherry on top!

So I decided to finally stop in when I was nearby for work. But they're obviously known for is their banh mis. My sister had brought back the grilled pork sandwiches home and have had that and it was wonderful. Since she doesn't like pork belly I decided to order this for myself. The baguette has a nice crunch to it but also where it's not sharpen cuts the roof of your mouth. The box has a cool design so it doesn't get steamy and ruins the texture of your sandwich. They also put pickled vegetables on the side and a bag so you're able to add a little or as much as you would like. Everything is very tasty and what a great mouth feel you have from the pork to the veggies to you the bag get and also the sauce and clearness they're all works together very well. I tend to park on the street when I come visit here. This is a great place to come visit if you're looking for Banh Mis in the monterey park area.

Service is quick, touch screen ordering, but the popcorn chicken is weird. Breading is not standard for popcorn chicken, which in itself is not a deal-breaker, but it also felt like a poor breading to chicken ratio-- far too much breading, like I could feel my arteries clogging before I could taste the chicken. Maybe that's the fad now and I just missed it?

Alhambra original location is still worth the drive, th wait, and cash only situation. The Alhambra location is still our favorite banh mi place since childhood. This place has good ingredients but missing original location's seasoning on things. $4 Meatball - SO thinks it's not griller or cooked enough and missing more taste . No slight crispy texture. Was more like a microwaved version? Eggrolls were fresh. Not bad. $1.25 each. $7.50 Broken Rice Plate to go. It was whatever's. But for $7.50, maybe not expecting so much? $7.50 each banh mi. We got #1 grilled pork special and #8 Cold Cut. Our usuals at most banh mi places. Felt like we were just eating tasteless stuffed bread, or corrections: sour pickled stuff bread. There was meat and looks like pate, all the ingredients but no taste? The meats, the bread didn't even have taste, so weird. Bread was stale too. Banh mi my tho isn't known for their bread, but they at least aren't tasteless and stale. We got two different ones but didn't look or taste different. Only 1 other person there and it seemed like a friend so they couldn't possibly confuse the order with ours. Reviews showed this location to be promising. We thought we'd give it a try. Looks like either we visited on a really off day again, or ppl don't know how banh MI is supposed to at least taste like something?

It seems whoever took the order didn't write it down... wish I could say this was a big surprise! So we were fully willing to pay the difference and make the 2nd trip once again. But because it was near closing that was not made an option... just a sorry and goodbye. So now... after 6pm on Sunday, we are thinking of what 2nd meal we will have to purchase and pick up.... because this plain pasta is just not going to feed the 2 of us.

I love the bread that they use on the sandwiches, not sure if they make it in house but it is definitely not just store brought bread at a market. And everytime I drink their juice i definitely feel good internally, it's like my body likes it. You can see them press the juices in house! The place itself has limited parking space I would say and the interior is definitely mom & pop shop vibes but those are the best places ! I would definitely recommend as well as try their tuna sandwiches because I've heard they're delicious!

And my Alhambra neighborhood go-to is Mr Good's, a no-frills bakery off Valley that shares a strip mall with an aquarium store and a small-operation law office. The doors open at 5AM daily, as the brusquely efficient elderly owners load trays into the display case and grab your selections with a transactional lack of warmth or courtesy. In the early morning, the bright fluorescent lights feel particularly oppressive. Stainless steel chairs are pushed up against 2 wooden laminate tables, and the remaining counter space is littered with old appliances, pink takeout boxes, and other knick-knacks. The poorly lit donut display is filled only with the most traditional varieties -- the apple fritter and cinnamon roll are the edgiest options. Chinese pop music plays, interrupted intermittently by crackling feedback and newscasts from the tiny flatscreen television behind the counter. A consistent trickle of regulars arrive to dine in and take out during the weekday earlybird service. When I arrived about an hour into opening, I was surprised to find that not all donuts were yet available -- specifically, I was left without any maple or chocolate-frosted options. Instead, I settled on a plain glazed raised donut and an apple fritter. The still-warm ring was anything but "plain", and it sported a pleasantly even, melt-in-your-mouth glaze and an excellently light texture. In contrast, the warm fritter was bogged down by grease and butter; despite occasional apple chunks, the flavor was overwhelmingly cinnamon-y and one-dimensional. My two donuts ran me $3.60, cash only. While I might not get the fritter again, the fresh, plain glazed was an unequivocal winner. I see Mr Good's as an occasional on-the-go joint for those hoping to eschew bland chains, but without the bandwidth to trek out to LA's donut heavyweights.
