Great food at really affordable prices. Personally, I thought their lemon grass is the best flavor as their most popular pork-based sandwiches are dry. The bread is super fresh with a great crust and crunch! If you're in the mood for a sandwich, please stop here! read more

I have to say the sandwiches were just ok -- something I normally wouldn't deduct points for, except the upsell option they offered still netted what felt like a regular bánh mì. I could tell the bread was made in-house, which honestly was one of the most authentic things about the sandwich. BB read more

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. read more

Fantastic! Huge banh mi sandwiches with nice crusty bread! We came in on a Sunday and we were luckily enough to beat the rush and to score a table. Clean inside and staff was nice. Had we known now big the sandwiches were, we would have shared but they were both yummy and worth it to try two! Be prepared for crumbs because the bread is perfectly toasted! We had a classic and a grilled chicken, and both were stuffed full of meats and veggies. We also had a Thai coffee that was strong but delicious and a pineapple mint juice which was refreshing and a perfect balance to the Banh Mi. read more

Staff were super friendly, patient, and supportive. They said yes to offering us a sample of the pineapple mint drink and it was delicious I had to buy a cup of it and try their Vietnamese coffee; Both drinks were a hit. I bought myself a crispy pork Bánh Mi and ordered the Classic Bánh Mi. The classic tasted exactly like a Bánh Mi and the crispy pork Bánh Mi tasted more like a delicious sandwich. Parking can be a little tight. This place was busy and for good reason. I would definitely come back to this place and try other sandwiches. read more

There's places that you come to knowing you're going to get what you expected. This is on of them in Long Beach. Somewhat of a known place if you're looking for banh mi. There's a few other locations and they're all great. This location in the LBC shares a parking lot with 7'11 and other businesses. It's a decent size corner lot which a good amount of parking. Restaurant itself isn't that big. There's a few tables to the sides for dine in but it's more of a take out place. Right when you walk in, the counter is right infront where you place your order. There's a glass counter with drinks and perishable and package food on the counter. Everything is made fresh daily and brought out on a regular. Menu pretty much has all the food selections of the banh mi, plate meals and so on. I picked up a couple of the sandwiches, the combination with a mixture of meats, pate, and of course the pickle veggies. They're number one seller I believe. Also all the baguette are fresh and made in house. Also picked up the bbq pork and grilled chicken. Both excellent as the meat is fresh and served with the pickle veggies. Besides that, they had boa available which was still hot and fresh. Picked some up a couple and pork egg rolls that were in the hot glass display. Plus an order of the springs roll. It's also another dish that's a must here. They're packed and made daily. Besides that, everything on the menu looked amazing. Their rice dishes, noodles and combination meals are all made to order. If you like coffee drinks, it's a must here. Services were great, the staff were all amazing and friendly. Food of course was excellent. Prices have gone up pretty much everywhere you go but it's still worth it. read more

Being someone who is a fan of banh mis, the grilled pork one from Pickles is definitely one of the best I've ever had. This restaurant puts theirs on a hoagie style bun making it more traditional and savory. Service was quick and easy. I also order 3 other banh mis for friends, the nem nuong they has at the front along with the spring rolls; in the future I would just stick to the banh mis. I also tried their nem chua and it was 7/10. Not as spicy as I would like it. read more

Pickle Banh Mi - Long Beach - Vietnamese Near Me - Long Beach, California

Rainy day, craving something fast-casual but actually good. Pickle Banh Mi Co hit the spot. What They're Known For This spot is a local favorite for no-frills, authentic Vietnamese banh mi with bold flavors and generous fillings. They're especially known for their house-pickled veggies (that crunch + tang ), and I've seen their banh mi pop up on social feeds for being a great value without cutting corners. Parking Shared lot right out front with a few other businesses (including a 7-Eleven). Easy parking, but just a heads-up: there are often unhoused folks near the 7-Eleven. Vibe / Interior Small, a little rough around the edges, and not the cleanest--but very much a "get in, get fed, get happy" kind of place. A few tables (4-5) if you want to eat there, otherwise very to-go friendly. Good For Takeout, quick bites, and anyone looking for authentic Vietnamese food at a reasonable price. Expect ~$10-15 per person for a sandwich. Noticed a lot of people ordering Thai tea--on my list for next time. Order Ordered ahead via the Toast app (super easy). - Lemongrass Beef Banh Mi - 10/10 - Pork Belly Banh Mi - 10/10 Flavor-packed, perfectly balanced, and incredibly satisfying. Service Fast, efficient, and kind. The cashier even offered to wipe down our table before we ate--small gesture, big points. read more

Pickle Banh Mi is an incredibly popular spot for a reason! The banh mis and spring rolls are incredibly generous portions. This place gets really busy on the weekends - they have very limited seating for how busy they are, but they have a quick turnover of seats as well. I will admit I gelt a little squished waiting for my order, so if you're getting it to go, it might be best to place your order and then do something else to kill 15-20 minutes and come back for your order. It's a casual restaurant, with a high turnover so you order at the cash register and wait for them to call out your number. Bus your table yourself. The banh mi is huge! It had all the flavors you look for in a typical banh mi. I wish I tasted the pork belly a little more, but overall the sandwich was great! Loved the crispy parts on the pork belly and the bread itself was the perfect texture. 8/10 The pork pastry was SO good! They're only $2.48 per pastry. I highly recommend trying it! The crust is perfectly flaky, and the filling is delicious. 9/10 The spring rolls are huge, great value for the price! I had the shrimp and pork spring roll, it was very solid, there was one perfect bite with my favorite herbs as well, when you get the mint, it really sings. The dipping sauce was good, I added the peanuts. 8/10 There is a parking lot, which was pretty full since this is in a little series of shops, but really parking shouldn't be too much of an issue. I will definitely be back to try the lemon grass beef banh mi and the pork sausage spring rolls! read more

What a fantastic sandwich! This thing is huge and it's fairly priced. I get why they added "pickle" in their name because they're very generous with it- I love the crunch with every bite. The sauce was surprisingly sweeter than I expected, but, all the flavors had a wonderful balance. I also appreciate that I can bite into the bread without it crumbling all over my shirt. This usually indicates that the bread is good quality and/or it wasn't overly toasted. This rating is solely on the sandwich. I didn't dine-in because it was too hot inside. I'd recommend taking your food to-go for this place. read more

I've eaten here before and was in the area so I called in an order of their thit kho (braised pork). I've gotten this and their banh mi in the past and the thit kho was good so I figured it was a safe option. I think they use fake butter in their banh mi and I'm not a fan of that flavor profile so I didn't care for their banh mi. Ordering over the phone was friendly and quick and pick up was a bit slow but no complaints there. When I got back to the hotel and started eating it, I found a piece of plastic wrap in it so that was very bad. The thit kho was still good and the same flavor as before but no one should have to carefully comb through any food they buy to look for plastic wrap. The parking lot is large and easy. read more

Anytime we're in the area, we try to stop by. We've ventured on from the Bahn Mi sandwiches and love to order the Lomo Saltado Rice dish. Make sure you say rice dish. When we forgot, we got the Lomo Saltado Bahn Mi and it's just not the same. Call ahead for faster service and to avoid the wait. There are a few tables, but it's definitely more of a take-out spot. On this visit the Lomo Saltado did have way less steak than previous visits, but it was still delicious. read more

Y'all... The reviews and experience definitely lived up to the hype -- the banh mi was absolutely incredible. Service was exceptional. The banh mi was bursting with flavor. Although I usually try to avoid pork, I couldn't resist trying the crispy pork -- it was delicious. The special banh mi was also outstanding. Prices range from $8 for the sandwiches to $10 for the premium options. Vietnamese coffee was just as good. Mom and I rated it 5/5. Restroom available, and there's plenty of parking. read more

Food: 5/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 4/5 My favorite 1) BBQ pork 2) Crispy pork 3) Cold cut combination 4) Meatballs 5) Lemongrass Alright.... After coming here handful of times. I give this place the crown for best Banh mi I ever had but you have to sit down and eat there right away. I was torn between BBQ Pork and crispy pork to give number one spot. At the end I just have to factor in the fact that crispy pork is few dollars more, I just bump it down to 2. It will be great if I can make half and half. That will be perfect solution to taste everything. I wish they open another store in SGV. read more

We were going to the port to the Catalina island and was googling a place to buy the sandwiches and so glad we found this place . Staffs are super friendly and the bánh mì was very good.

My hubby and I had an appointment in Long Beach and it was our first time at Pickle Banh Mi ! We had the pork belly Bahn mi sandwiches and the egg rolls ! We went during lunch time mid week. There were a few people ahead of us but the line was moving. We ordered and sat down. The Bahn mi sandwiches were delish ! They put pickled cabbage along with the reg veggies which was a pleasant surprise ! The egg rolls were hot and delish ! If you are ever in the area I suggest u stop by ! You won't be disappointed ! read more

Any banh mi spot that lets you add fried eggs to any banh mi is at least solid in my books. I was looking for a good banh mi spot that's closer to the South Bay than Westminster. I got the tumeric fish and the grilled pork with 2 fried eggs added in on separate days. Tumeric Fish Banh Mi: This was my first time having a fish banh mi and I loved it. Since it's a premium banh mi, they use pickled slaw instead of the pickled carrots and daikon that I prefer. Grilled Pork w/ 2 fried eggs: I had the fried eggs added in at an extra $2.5. I absolutely loved it. The egg yolk nicely coated the inside. The pork was great. I would have added pate next time. read more

Pickle Banh Mi is the best option for Vietnamese Banh Mi sandwiches and Vietnamese Spring Rolls in Long Beach. Their spring rolls are packed with your meat of choice, herbs, and has a subtle rolled egg roll wrapper on the inside for crispiness. I bought three of their spring rolls on my most recent visit: grilled pork, pork and shrimp, and crispy pork belly. Also don't sleep on the flavor-packed sauces, which were different for each spring roll! My wife's favorite is the pork and shrimp spring roll as it's a classic Vietnamese spring roll with nice balance. I prefer the grilled pork spring roll as I love the flavor of the pork; however, the small amount of crispy bits on the pork belly spring roll is also very good. Their banh mi sandwiches are also very good. If you like grilled pork and pork belly, these are some of the top sellers. I got these meats in the spring rolls, so I opted for their lomo saltado banh mi. In my previous visit, I went with their chargrilled pork banh mi and I think that's that's what I would recommend. The lomo saltado banh mi has a generous amount of filet mignon beef; however, the fries and raw bell pepper and the absence of the key aji pepper sauce makes the sandwich less successful in filling my cravings. Make no mistake. I finished my sandwich and it was good. Overall, I do think their banh mi sandwiches are great because of their house made, flaky breads, because they're packed with delicious meat, and they're generously loaded with veggies and flavor. Pickle Banh Mi also has rice dishes and other appetizers, but I only have two stomachs (if you factor in my wife); however, it gives me more reason to keep coming back. Overall, this shop is a great addition to Long Beach and it is the best option for Banh Mi in our city. read more

I ordered crispy pork belly banh mi. It was delicious to the max. The meat is tender with right amount of seasoning and it tastes delicious. The ladies who are working there are nice and friendly with smiles. The orders came out quick after we ordered them. I also had their fried egg roll and it was good with crunchiness and a lot of meat inside. Their grilled pork banh mi is also delicious with tender meats and good seasonings. Their bread tastes freshly baked with soft on the inside and crisp on the outside. This place is clean and well maintained. Highly recommended! read more

Wish they added a little of some spicy flavor. read more

My favorite place to get a pork banh mi, I've even turned my parents into huge fans. Whenever there's been no meat left out to cook or we just feel too lazy to prepare anything, The Pickle gets us out of a pickle. The sandwiches are a good size and come with your choice of meat, super fresh veggies and a flavorful aioli spread. Be careful with the jalapeños though - sometimes they are super spicy! We tend to share the sandwiches in my home, eating only half. At times, I wish they'd put a bit more meat, but maybe I just need to remember to ask to add extra. I've also tried the iced teas and the spring rolls here. I almost took one star off because the two times I've ordered spring rolls here, they were falling apart while at the same time having pieces that were too tough to bite through or chew, but overall they have been consistently good with everything else. The staff is always helpful. I usually call in my order ahead of time and then pick up quickly. They're pretty fast service and get the line moving whenever there has been a line. I can't recall if there's seating inside the restaurant but it's clean and well lit up. The staff there also do a great job at welcoming those who enter. *These sandwiches also come in clutch for picnics or for taking to the Hollywood Bowl where you can bring your food in. It holds up great to eat an hour or so after picking it up which is a huge plus!* read more

OMG! Who gives out all these 5 star ratings? Family, Friends, Workers? Who!! Had the Thit Nuang Grilled Pork Banh mi an it was abasolutely horrible!! This sandwich should have never, never left the kitchen!!! How dare you people put such gross meat like this in a sandwich!! Dried up card board peices of cr-p, no flavor, how old was this chit!! Absolutely the worst banh mi I've ever had in my life!!! No way I was eating this crap, threw it in the trash!! NEVER COMING BACK EVER, AGAIN!!! Horrible!! I hope you all fold for selling food that should've been trashed days ago!! wow read more

So I was craving a banhmi for lunch and started searching through grub hub, i had tried a couple other places before but pickle banh mi caught my eye and I came here to check the reviews...the rave reviews were not wrong. This is probably the best banh mi I have had...in well...ever. I got the crispy pork belly and even being delivered it was still nice and warm with that crispy skin. The sandwich was loaded with the pork belly (I did order extra) and fresh veggies and sauce and bursting with flavor. I highly recommend it! read more

Had a craving for a sandwich (as I usually do), so had to try this place out. Atmosphere/Ambiance - 4/5 - As with most Banh Mi places, it is not big at all. Most people just order and go. Staff - 4/5 - Not mean, but not friendly. Pretty much the same in most Asian restaurants. Food/Drink - Ordered the following: - Grilled Pork Banh Mi - 5/5 - I honestly never had a terrible grilled pork one, and this one was spot on. Highly recommend. - Pork Belly Banh Mi - 4/5 - I think it was great as well, but there is a $2 upcharge for this one. $10 for this sandwich versus $8 for the regular ones. - Chicken Fried Rice place - 4/5 - Yes, they have rice plates, and this was for the kiddos. I thought it was just okay, but the kids really enjoyed it. If I had my pick, I would have chosen either Lomo Saltado or the Pork Chop plate. Overall, I think it was a really great spot to try out. However, it wasn't super amazing, and since I only come to Cali to visit, I don't know if I would be back as a visitor. read more

It's not easy finding the best banh mi when you've lived in the San Gabriel valley where there's so many options to choose from. Thank you, Pickle, for coming through. Been coming here since they've opened and man, does it satisfy my Vietnamese sandwich fix! I always go for the classic but have tried the chicken, bbq pork, beef. and rice dishes too. It gives me a sense of nostalgia of when I used to go to this spot in Lincoln Heights as a child, the butter and the pate ... drool! The portion of meat is very generous. You can always ask them not to put chili in the sandwich too. Staff are always friendly. I've even placed order over the phone for pickup. Saves me a lot of time, especially when I've got kids in the car. Enjoy! read more

I tried their new Fish Sauce Fried Chicken Banh Mi! You can't see it under the mountain of veggies, but there is a lot of delicious fried chicken in this sandwich. It is umami, savory, sweet, fatty, and is perfectly cut by the fresh veggies and pickles. Their baguettes are textbook-- crispy on the outside, chewy and fluffy on the inside with strong flavors of butter and yeast.  Everyone in Long Beach has sung their praises about Pickle for a long time, and it is all well deserved.

It's really not a surprise that Pickle Banh Mi (in particular this location) ends up on so many end-of-the-year lists. I've been going to this particular spot for sandwiches since a kid, before it was Pickle Banh Mi--it's been a handful of different Banh Mi places since the original closed down, which was a community favorite, but glad to see such a great shop finally sticking around at this location. It really does feel like it's part of the Cambodia Town community on Anaheim. That being said, I finally got a chance to try their Lomo Saltado Banh Mi--a really interesting concept of a modern fusion sandwich. It was filled with a great Lomo Saltado flavor, a nice mix of sauce, steak, fries, and bell peppers with your usual Banh Mi toppings. It really did feel packed as a sandwich (but it is messy, so just keep that in mind!) I'll never forget the first time I had Lomo Saltado. It was at another Vietnamese restaurant when I had a free weekday. I took my parents who were not quite sure of what to think of it at first. However, as soon as my mom ate it with some rice, she understood the hype. I'll never forget that day not because of the Lomo Saltado, but because we picked the largest mango we've ever seen from our tree that day. It was bigger than my head! It fed us enough mango for a week. Anyways, the Lomo Saltado Banh Mi brought me back to that great day. So, I'd definitely be back here to try their other sandwiches. Their menu is quite big so there's plenty of things to try here and they all look great! read more

Pickle Banh Mi - Long Beach - Cross-section of the lomo saltado banh mi! - Vietnamese Near Me - Long Beach, California

I'm here probably every other week...or rather, I have a banh mi from here every other week. If I'm not stopping by, then it is my mom who stops by here for me to pick up some banh mi. Whenever my mom walks in the door and her usual server is at the register, they already know what she'll ask and just punches in her order, so I guess I can say my mom is a regular (and I am by extension!) I've never had a bad manh mi from here. My typical order is a #1 Combo with extra meat and extra jalapeno. I've also tried #4, and #12, and they are also super delicious. #4 is the BBQ pork, and #12 is the crispy pork belly. The spring rolls are also freshly made and super delicious. I would recommend the pork sausage spring roll (since that one is my favorite), but the others are also good too! The sausage is freshly grilled, and it has a bit sweet and salty taste to it. It pairs well with the nice crispy crunch you get from the fried egg roll wrappers. However, if you don't like pork sausages, then the pork belly and the pork+shrimp spring rolls are also good choices. The spring rolls are filling but don't feel too heavy, so if you aren't too hungry and just want a quick bite, then the spring rolls are worth a try! Usually, I take everything to go, but there is some indoor seating. However, if you go during the busy lunchtime, you may not have anywhere to sit as the shop is a bit small. I would also say that the parking lot is also small, so you may not find parking if it is busy. I'd definitely say that if you are in the area, it is worth stopping by! read more

Pickle Banh Mi - Long Beach - Different varieties of Food. - Vietnamese Near Me - Long Beach, California

I've been here once before for the crispy pork belly banh mi. I liked it, but wasn't a fan of that creamy sauce in it. I like my banh mi dry... no sauce or soggy bread (that's my pet peeve). This time I tried the grilled pork banh mi, nem and banh bao and their Vietnamese milk coffee. A few things about other reviewers commenting- I agree the pickled veggies could be more pickled but this didn't bother me. Also, the Vietnamese coffee isn't the traditional kind but it's because it's a "milk tea". This was fine with me- obviously more mild than Lee's or Da Vien so if you're looking for that crack feeling you should get it there LOL. You get a lot of bang for your buck here. The banh mi is made fresh and it shows. It's perfect. I feel like all their food/ingredients taste fresh... which is refreshing compared to other places. I also appreciate their variety of food and drinks. You can get your Vietnamese food fix without having to go to a hole in the wall or restaurant- it's quick easy and delish! The area specifically, I didn't find any problems with it. Some mentioned it being in a not so nice area... my only complaint would be that I wish it had a drive thru... for convenience. I'll definitely be back! It won't be my last time here. Next on my list is to try their banh mi Dac biet and maybe another dish- and their pineapple drink! read more

They also serve rice plates, spring rolls and other specialty dishes. read more
