Grilled pork banh mi
Vinh M.

Wait I thought I did a review on this place already after having it a million times in my life! Oh well, better now than never. This place is one of my first favorites for banh mi sandwiches after the quality of those in Seattle's Little Saigon area have rapidly declined. It's also a place I've been going to since I was little, though I don't remember most of the interior changes that have occurred here if any. This place shares parking in a plaza that is absurdly strict about perfect, not-over-the-lines parking, so be warned. This place serves banh mi, drinks, pastries and a lot of packaged Vietnamese street food near the front. But forget about all that, because this is also the place where most people carry bags and bags of their baguettes, and JUST baguettes. Heck, I used to get them back then too when I was making my own banh mi sandwiches or just wanted some freshly baked bread. For a majority of my visits and this one, I got their grilled pork banh mi, which uses those same baguettes. I will say that their quality of banh mi has declined over the years, but not as hard as other places I used to have banh mi at in Chinatown. For the one I got for this review, it came with everything and was done very well. Pork was still grilled though not as much, and there was an ample amount of veggies and jalapeno peppers that I look for and thoroughly enjoy in my sandwich. It's not runny or drippy with sauce, and the baguette is the right kind of crispy each time. This is also the place that has the most consistent quality of banh mi that I've had so far over the years, so that's something I love about this place. It may not be as awesome as some other places that go above and beyond (like Saigon Drip Cafe or even Banh Mi Deluxe very close by), but I like to think of this place as a middle ground for what makes a great banh mi. Besides their banh mi, I sometimes also get their steamed buns, which have a ton of pork, a small slice of Chinese sausage and a small hard-boiled egg too. This and their sandwiches/baguettes are really good when you come here!

This place is clearly a local spot! The lady that took my order was very sweet and confirmed it with me. The bahn mis were delicious and they came out really quickly too. They also have a market area where you can buy their Demi baguette for $5.50 and around 3:30 people came pouring in the door to clear them out. For ambiance it's very busy and popular! There's nowhere to sit but the sandwiches were really well packaged to go so I was fine with take out.

Grilled pork Bahn mi

First off i'd love to rate this place at least a 3.5 out of 5. Anyways, I came to grab a Bahn Mi at this place because I'm still on the search for a go to Bahn Mi place in the greater Seattle area. One that's cost effective while also providing that flavor that I'm familiar with. Cost of a Bahn Mi is decently priced around 8-9 dollars or so. I got the grilled pork Bahn mi Texture of the baguette has that crispy with a flaky crust texture. This one doesn't cut the roof of your mouth like typical baguettes do and it has some softness to its flesh. Accoutrements are layered and have that classic flavor profile I like. Only thing that fell a little short was the amount of grilled pork. The unique thing I noticed as well was their grilled pork was sliced thinly. In comparison to the BBQ pork that my friend got. They had a larger portion of BBQ pork on their Bahn mi. This place also has some grab and go Asian baked goods. One that I tried was a fried bread with sesame seeds. It reminded me of the sesame balls at dim sum places without the red bean paste. Also was way larger and had tons of surface area in comparison to a sesame ball. All in all. I may consider giving them another try because their BBQ pork Bahn mi did look good. Establishment is nothing too fancy I think it's equatable to other Bahn mi spots I've been to.

The Bakery makes bread for banh mi. As soon as you drive in to the parking lot, you immediately smell the wonderful aroma of fresh baked bread in the air! My favorite is the butter bread! It's like a big croissant, so good, so buttery! It sells out quickly, so get there early (opens at 6am) if you want to get some. Customers come in and purchase bags of bread rolls. They also have assorted pastries, banh mi, smoothies, coffee and vietnamese snacks.

Hands down the BEST place to get banh mi in south Seattle. The fresh bread makes all the difference. Everything is super affordable for the quality and amount of food. Plus they have a huge parking lot so it's easy to grab things and go.

Located in the back part of a has-been tiny shopping center having a parking lot with failing pavement, Q Bakery is a great little bakery featuring good bánh mì, great pâté chaud, and lots of fresh-baked rolls. It is popular -- having a line is the norm, despite the somewhat obscure location -- and there's good reason for that. The staff is friendly and helpful (and very busy), and the bánh mì are good, with many varieties to choose from. Most of the customers are local, and a great many of them are Vietnamese -- a testimony to the authenticity of their food, and the reasonable prices too. It is obvious that many delis and restaurants get their bread (for bahn mi and other things) at Q Bakery, and indeed their rolls probably set the standard for bánh mì in Seattle (Vietnamese style, rather than French or American style). Why a 4-star and not a five? Because this is a solidly good place, but there are other many other establishments where the bánh mì are good too.

We were recommended by family to try Q Bakery since we were craving for banh mi! It definitely did not disappoint. The banh mi ga (chicken) and dac biet (original) were really tasty. The original was $6.25 and the chicken was $5.50, which is a great price, seeing that a lot of banh mi shops in Portland sell them for around $7-9 now. We tried the banh mi, banh bao, pate chaud, nem nuong (meatball) and bought some baguettes. Our favorites were the banh mi for sure and the banh bao was really good too! They had a banh bao deal, so you could buy 4 baos for $15. Our least favorite was the pate chaud because it just didn't come with a lot of meat. We saw a lot of people coming in and out of the restaurant around 9:30 AM, so we knew it's a hot spot for Vietnamese sandwiches! We'd love to come back again for the banh mi when we're in the area.

In the neighborhood and was picking up a sandwich for a friend. Since I saw the guy bagging the rolls non stop in the back I knew the bread was going to be fresh. I was going to be standing around waiting for one sandwich so i figured I'd get myself one as well. It wouldn't look good if I bit my friend's sandwich just to try it A little confusing on where to stand. Order your sandwich from the window deeper in. The window up front is for phone orders and purchases of the bagged bread. They do a great business of the sandwich rolls and smaller ones. The bag of 6 was $3.25, maybe a dozen of the smaller ones was $5. I saw a guy from Smarty Pants pick up 150 rolls! Sandwich was good - toss up on whether I'd want a $7 banh mi with less meat, or a more packed sandwich from my neighborhood for $14.

Combo

The bread here is so fresh, light, and airy, perfect for banh mis! Value wise, Q bakery is tough to beat at $5.50 for a sandwich! I ordered their combo banh mi and it was very satisfying. Includes pate, mayo, cilantro, jalapeño, pickled veggies, and a fair amount of meat. Just wish it had more of the pickled veggies or cilantro. Overall, would recommend!

I stopped by when I was in the area and wanted to pick up a quick lunch. Q Bakery was pretty busy on a random weekday at 12, but the food came out quickly. They sell fresh baguettes and other bread/pastry items there that locals seemed to love and were buying in bulk. I tried the grilled pork banh mi ($6.25), which tasted really fresh and was delicious! I also had the Vietnamese iced coffee, which was very strong and not too sweet compared to others I've tried. Service was not amazing, but kind of to be expected for this type of place. Overall, would recommend if you're looking to buy inexpensive lunch for yourself or many others!

Came around 1-2pm on a weekend and they still had a full pastry case! I always love seeing that…read morelater in the day since some other cafes are getting empty around that time. They have so many yummy options, but I settled on a mushroom and Gruyère pastry and an earl grey blueberry cruffin. The mushroom and Gruyère pastry was SO good!!! Buttery flaky layers of dough with a strong earthy mushroom flavor and savory cheese - an absolute umami bomb. We ate it the day after and threw it in the air fryer for a couple of minutes, and it was so delicious. The cruffin was huge! Topped with a delicious light Earl grey cream that wasn't too sweet. It was filled with a blueberry cream and was definitely very filling. There's a lot of sugar coating it, as is standard with cruffins, but it's a nice sweet treat. Definitely coming back for the mushroom and Gruyère pastry and to try their other delicious flavors. Their supreme croissant flavor switches often and we can't wait to try the next one! One of the best bakeries I've been to in Seattle so far.

I suggested that it would be helpful to put their leadtime for the cakes somewhere--either on yelp or on their website.

If you can find parking in the Cap Hill area I would definitely consider this as an option for a sweet treat. I think the prices are really reasonable considering some of the other options. Staff: 5/5 (nice) Sanitation: 5/5 (clean) Soft serve w/syrups (5/5) I've had most of the syrups that they offer with their vanilla soft serve. The soft serve itself is a really creamy and rich vanilla milk flavor. I would say it's closer to that Asian milk flavor if you know what I mean. I think the hojicha syrup is my favorite out of all the ones I've tried so far. It has a really nice roasty flavor and not something you can find at most other places. The matcha I would say is my second favorite. The flavor of the matcha syrup is definitely lighter compared to the hojicha but still is a nice compliment to the soft serve. The black sesame would be the lowest on my list out of the, all since I felt like the flavor was too nutty like it was a blend of sesame and potentially a nut. Overall I would definitely go back for the hojicha but if you're not into that there's definitely solid options for other flavors.

Overall, I'd say their pastries were generally good not great and were significantly sogged up by 12:30 PM when I grabbed em. Their patisserie is stronger than the pastries IMO and while I wouldn't wait in a crazy line, it's still lovely neighborhood spot and perhaps the pastries are a better texture earlier in the day. Highlights: - Miso Roasted White Chocolate Cronut: My favorite item in their current rotation. The cronut was a tad soggy, but the buttery texture inside is still satisfying and the miso white chocolate filling is lusciously smooth and perfectly balanced between savory and sweet. - Blackberry Corn Mousse Cake: Blueberry mousse is the perfect fluffy texture and the corn is very subtle. The sponge cake is light and perfectly contrasts against the bottom layer of crunchies to add a bit of variety. - Blueberry Corn Croissant: Pastry also held up quite well on this one with the outside still being quite crisp. The inner cream unlike the mousse cake is very corn forward with a bit of blueberry jam to balance it out. Skip: - Black Forest Cake: Found the cake to be a bit too firm with the cream filling to be a little bland and too firm as well. Just wanted this to be better than it was. Also, it looks totally different from the photo on their website heads up. - Tomato Basil Croissant: Just found this to be off ratio wise. The only tomato is the 3 small quarters of cherry tomato at the top and a light smear of basil cream. I can see this being very good, but current form factor isn't doing it any favors.
