Pork Belly Banh Mi
Rhonda F.

I needed a quick snack and tried this restuarant and was pleased and impressed. I ordered a Pork Belly Banh Mi and the bread was fresh like it just came freshly baked from the oven. The side condiment ingredients were packed into a plastic sealed bag, you got two separate sauces once added to the sandwich gave it a rich flavorable taste. Thr pork was plentiful and resided in the belly of the bun, I just needed to add the fresh condiments. Flavorable and tasty sandwich simply delicous.

I'm really happy I got a chance to visit Pickle Banh Mi! This place makes the best banh mi i've had in a long time and I grew up eating Banh Mi lol. We got their roast pork banh mi which was very delicious. It was savory and tender. Perfectly made. Lots of garnish as well. We also got their banh mi thit nuong which, as a classic banh mi option, would be something I'd definitely get again here as well. To top it off, we got their bo kho which is one of my childhood favorites. We came in with the plan on eating half of all the sandwiches and taking the rest home, but everything was so good that we ate everything at the restaurant lol. Service was very fast. Very professional. Presentation of the food was top tier (something you typically don't see at a banh mi establishment). Ambiance was a little noisy and busy. Lots of customers came in while we dined here. I can see why this place is poppin!

Pickle Banh Mi is hands down the best deal for Vietnamese food in the entire Long Beach area. Their baguettes are always loaded with an incredible quantity of fresh, high-quality ingredients that never skimp on flavor. You genuinely won't find a better balance of top-tier quality and unbeatable prices anywhere else around town. Every bite delivers that perfect crispy crust, savory filling, and crisp pickled vegetables that keep me coming back. It has easily earned a permanent spot as my go-to local spot for an insanely satisfying meal. At time of writing, their Banh Mi Sandwiches start at just $8.

Perfect meal on the go or on a boat :)

Was looking for a quick bite before heading out for an evening out on our boat in the harbor and found this gem. My husband and I were craving for a good banh mi in the area and found this place searching through Yelp. I did make a phone order at 4pm as this establishment closes at 5pm on a Friday. Got there close to 4:30 and our two sandwiches were ready for pick up. Ordered the bbq pork and combination banh mi. The sandwiches alone were a good size. Probably could've shared one sandwich but my husband alone can eat a whole one by himself! Definitely had my share of banh mi's in the past and this place makes the top of the list. Meat was flavorful and of course loved the veggies. The restaurant itself is nestled in a plaza with easy parking. It was next to a 7-11 too which was nice to hop over and grab a drink or more snacks if you wanted to pair it with your sandwich. Inside the store was clean and the staff were friendly. Will definitely be back for more!

This was the Classic combo Banh Mi sandwich.

Awesome place! Fast and friendly service. I order a banh mi to go and was in and out within five minutes. I got the classic and it was under $10.00. Tough to find anything at such a price now. The sandwich was perfect and huge portion. Bread was crunch, great texture throughout, and just a tasty sandwich all around. Clean and well maintained store. My first visit was perfect all around. I will be back.

Pickle Banh Mi has three locations in OC (Fountain Valley, Garden Grove, Anaheim) and this one in LA County. It's nice to have spill over restaurants from LA and OC here on the border. The service wasn't the friendliest, but my order was taken immediately. I waited less than ten minutes for two Banh Mis and five egg rolls to go. The bread was a soft & chewy, dense baguette. It contained the pickled veggies and meat perfectly. I also liked how the bags had little holes to let the sandwiches breathe. The pork egg rolls were exceptionally crispy and crunchy the way I prefer. I would return for the Lomo Saltado and more egg rolls. They definitely give the Lee's down the street a run for their money.

I try to always make a stop here when I'm in Long Beach. Loads of places offer banh mi but finding one that's actually good is another thing. I've alway had a good experience here and the sandwich and food has alway been great. It's not a big shop but they do have a little dining area. I feel like it tends to be more of a take out place. Fresh made sandwiches right after you order. Besides sandwiches, they have pre made meals on the counter made throughout the day as well as noddle dishes, rice and meat. I tend to pick up a couple of my usual, the combination banh mi and grilled pork. They do put in a good amount of meat which is alway good. Some place do skimp with that. Also their bao and egg rolls age quite as well. A nice place for Asian food in Long Beach. Service has alway been great. Friendly staff.

Egg and Spam

I'll admit it. I was petty about this location during soft opening. Service was rough. Orders had issues. Quality wasn't matching what I expected from Pickle Banh Mi, especially since the Garden Grove location already had my trust. I visited a few more times after that and still thought it was meh, so I kept side-eyeing Long Beach like a hater. But annoying as it is to admit, consistency wins. Somewhere along the way, Long Beach figured it out. Fast, consistent and much closer to what I expect from Pickle now. Now it's one of my easy go-to spots when I want a bánh mì fix. Bread matters, and Pickle gets it. Crisp shell. Airy middle. Clean bite. Enough chew to hold everything together without trying to exfoliate my mouth. Lee's is a staple and I respect it, but that bread always fights back. They walked so Pickle could run. Today I got the egg and spam sandwich. Bomb. Bánh mì is already a breakfast staple, but egg and spam makes it stop pretending. Crisp bread, soft scramble, salty spam, Vietnamese mayo, pickled veggies and a splash of Maggi to seal the deal. For a second, being awake felt like a good decision. Most of their bánh mì come with the usual fresh stuff, and it matters: cool cucumber crunch, herby pop from cilantro, jalapeño with a sharp peppery bite and sweet-tangy pickled crunch. No giant chunks falling out and trying to become a side salad. I've also had their combination, grilled pork and roasted pork belly sandwiches plenty of times. The combination hits that classic Viet deli profile: cold cuts, savory pork roll, pâté-style richness, mayo, fresh crunch and crisp bread. Simple formula, the OG. The grilled pork is my personal favorite bánh mì here because it keeps things simple. Light smoke. Savory, slightly sweet pork. Rich mayo. Fresh crunch. No lemongrass yelling over the bite. Not the flashiest sandwich, just the one I keep coming back to. I look at the menu. I act thoughtful. I add grilled pork anyway. The roasted pork belly is the heavier hitter. Silky fat, tender meat and little crackles of skin show up as you chew. Special sauce and mayo make the bite glossy and rich, while the pickled cabbage and carrot slaw cuts through with crunch and brightness. One bite and yeah, it makes sense. Popular for a reason. Spring rolls are solid. Egg rolls are good too, especially fresh out the fryer. I grabbed 20 this morning and asked for them freshly fried. Took about 15 minutes, worth it. They're the simpler pork-and-carrot style, not the pork-and-shrimp version I usually think of for that classic Vietnamese egg roll bite, but fresh out the fryer, they still hit crisp and delicious. Two were sacrificed in the car for quality control. Iced coffee is strong and delicious. Not café vibes coffee. This is "why am I matching my cat's zoomies" coffee. Tiny space. Few tables. Warm baguette smell in the air. Front workers always moving. Orders getting packed. Pans clanking in the back. Aunties barking orders in Vietnamese like every sandwich is already late. Customers tucked inside with their bánh mì. Everyone just locked in with bread. Outside, it's still a busy strip mall, so lock up, roll up and get your Vietnamese food fix. Plaza life, not a Pickle problem. I even came in for extra pickled veggies for a homemade grilled pork vermicelli bowl. That's when a place wins. I went from hating during soft opening to treating the place like a mini Westminster market run. I was petty. They stayed consistent. Annoying. Respect.

Super fast service. I ordered four #1 banh mi and they were really good. My whole family liked them even after a two hour drive home to San Diego they were still delicious. The sandwiches are big, it took me two meals to finish mine. Bread was soft and fresh, lots of meat and veggies. Everything tasted really fresh compared to banh mi in San Diego. Pâté was good but I wish they didn't mix it with the Vietnamese mayo and put it all on one side of the bread. I prefer them separated. We also got sesame balls, they were small but really good and fresh, 2 for $1. Parking wasn't too bad and there were only a couple people inside when we got there. The $8 sandwich is such a good price for how big and good it is. In San Diego it's like $9 and not even as good. Would come back anytime I am in the area!

LOVE the number 22. Tea is great! I liked the service they worked fast and the atmosphere was pretty noisy when i went but ive also gone on slower days and its just as nice. My friend also likes the sandwichs here, worth a stop.

Easy banh mi spot with reasonable prices and loaded sandwiches. We ordered the lemongrass beef sando and the classic sando with pate. They're are Cambodian-run, which is fitting for the Cambodiatown area. We also tried their buns (meat, egg, and sausage inside), which was hearty too. It's an easy takeout spot for a casual meal.

Love the food here, been to the one in Fountain Valley in Orange County and I fell in love. They have a drive thru there too. Here in Long Beach it's a walk in ambiance spot. Anywho, I love the Grilled Pork Bánh Mì (Thịt Nướng) sandwich. It's super popular, savory and slightly sweet marinated pork. I also got the Vermicelli Bowl (Bún) with grilled chicken (very generous w/the chicken) & it comes with a fresh salad , rice, and fish sauce. The service was fast and the food was nothing short of amazing. Will be back to try more food items.

We split the 12. Heo Quay/Pork Belly & 4. Thit Nuong/Grilled Pork

Apparently, I've been sleeping on trying pickle Banh Mi. We tried it this weekend and loved it. We ordered on-line for pick-up, but noticed the line and dining room were very busy. We tried the Pork Belly & Grilled Pork Sandwiches. They were delicious and we will be back to try more things.

First time trying Stereoscope in Long Beach, and I'd definitely come back!…read more I went with a group, so I was able to try a few different drinks, including their sweetened matcha, Madagascar Vanilla Latte, and Signature Cream Top Latte. The location itself is fairly small, and parking can be a little rough since it's in a popular area with limited metered parking. It's probably not somewhere I'd personally plan to sit and hang out for a while, but they do offer online pickup through DoorDash, and the service was quick (for reference, I went at around 8:45am on a Sunday). The employees were also friendly and helpful when we had questions about the menu. What really stood out to me was the flavor! The drinks are rich, flavorful, and really well-balanced. It's not bitter, overly sweet, or too plain. Everything we tried tasted consistent and intentional. The prices are a little on the higher side, but based on the quality, I think it's worth it. I'd definitely come back, especially for the Madagascar Vanilla Latte, the matcha, or even to just try something new on the menu!

This review, however, is motivated out of my desire to offer major props to the young man - I think I overheard something like Sip? - working this morning. This guy was on his A game, multitasking and juggling multiple tasks with perceived ease and being pleasant and accommodating all at the same time. Great job! Your effort is noticed and appreciated. Thanks for that. Had it not been for this (and their delicious pastries), I'd give Cyclops a 3 - 4 stars because I have a real bone to pick with paying for a larger Americano and getting the same number of shots regardless. I don't like when businesses do that so that would have otherwise been a major ding for me.

I was looking for something sweet and most local places were closed. I'm not a coffee drinker and I thought this place was like a Starbucks... mostly coffee. I saw Tierra Mia was open late so I decided to check it out. The service was good. There was a full crew of young ladies and they were all very welcoming and doing an outstanding job. This place is always busy but the employees work hard and efficient. The place is very old-school and gives the perfect Latin vibes. All the pastries are delish, My favorite was the churro muffin along with the Mexican hot chocolate. The Mexican hot chocolate tastes just like my mama made it. The place was packed inside and outside. The drive-thru was backed out to the street, I guess that tells you how good it is.

They have a fairly extensive drink menu with something for everyone, and also sell pastries, though I haven't had one yet.
