    10/10 YOU HAVE TO GO TRY THIS PLACE. THE FOOD QUALITY IS AMAZING. EVERYTHING TASTED SO FRESH. I have dreams of that Avococo drink my partner and I shared. My partner and I also shared a delicious Bahn Mi. The bread was fresh, crunchy, and overall one of the best Bahn Mi's I have ever experienced. The workers were super nice and kept checking in on us, which was much appreciated! The inside of the place is also super cutesy and comfortable. GO CHECK OUT SAIGON BREAKFAST!

    4/14/2026 Saigon Breadfast 123 E El Camino Real Mountain View, CA 94040 This is a new place replacing the Sandwich Spot, next to the Walgreens. Parking at the Mountain View Shopping Center is plentiful. I went there for a take home Banh Mi on an early Tuesday evening. I was the only customer there and I ordered the 6. Saigon's Signature from the menu board at the pay counter. Which was ready quickly. The interior has a few tables and a long bench and table for dining. It's new, modern and clean. The menu is mostly Banh Mi sandwiches and sweet drinks. My sandwich was well constructed with bread with a crunchy crust and soft inside, generous amounts of protein, fresh pickles and crunchy cucumber slices. There was nothing memorable about the flavor profile, probably to make it suitable for the American sub sandwich palate. My smaller size was very filling and I saved half for later. I am not a fan of sandwiches in general but their Banh Mi is good so give them a try. May repeat.

    Saigon Breadfast seriously surprised me. This is easily one of the best banh mi spots in the Bay Area and honestly I'd put it above a lot of places in SoCal too. My wife is from Vietnam and she approved, which says everything. The bread is the star. Fresh baked, pillowy soft on the inside with a light crunch on the outside. It does not shred your mouth like some places do. It's actually very close to what you get in Vietnam, which is rare out here. The pork is fragrant and clean tasting, not gamy at all. You can tell they care about quality. The overall sandwich just hits right. Only a couple things to improve. The pate was a bit runny and the grilled pork didn't really taste grilled, more like it was cooked on a flat top. Fix that and this place is top tier across the board. A huge plus is the outdoor table and fantastic customer service they greet you as soon as you enter. Still, really solid spot. I'll definitely be coming back.

    The ambience is nice and the staff is friendly. Plenty of parking. I ordered the salted Vietnamese coffee. The taste was strong and authentic, but overall it didn't blow me away. The sandwiches looked pretty good though so maybe I'll give them another try.

    Egg coffee

    Update: went back again with a friend for their egg coffee - it was too bitter for me this time (my fiance liked it, but he's more of coffee drinker than I am). Not sure why they changed the default sweetness, but I'll have to make sure that I indicate the sweetness next time. The banh mi was good as always.

    The reviews of Saigon Breadfast caught my attention, so had to give them a try since I was in the area. Arrived at around 10:30am and was greeted upon entering. Decided to go with the Saigon's Signature. There's the regular and then there's the large. For $3 more I went with the large - figured I could share the other half with the hubs. Then realized they had a large sandwich and choice of drink combo special - save a couple of $$$ by going with the combo. After asking for recommendations, went with the Egg Foam coffee. The coffee was a bit more bitter than I was expecting - probably wouldn't order that again. As for the sandwich, it was BIG. The bread was light and easy to bite through. I think I was expecting more flavor with all the ingredients added to the sandwich. More like 3.5 starts; although, when in the area, I'd go again and try a different item.

    Avocado smoothie and Vietnamese Milk Coffee

    So good! If you're looking an authentic and delicious banh mi, look no further. We got the small Sardine and Saigon Signature banh mi's and they were the perfect size. I got really excited when I saw Sardine on the menu because a lot of banh mi places don't offer this option. We also got the Avocado smoothie and the Vietnamese Milk Coffee! Both were very good! The Vietnamese coffee was very strong and not too sweet - just the way I like it. I like that the banh mis come with all the fillings - at other banh mi shops you sometimes have to ask for the pickled radish and carrots and this makes it less accessible for people who have never tried banh mi! Thanks for a delicious breakfast :)

    7. Vegetarian Sandwich - Small
    Serina N.

    I dropped by for lunch around 1:45, and it wasn't too busy. I got the meal deal with #7 Vegetarian Sandwich and a Strawberry Lychee drink. I asked the person at the front to confirm that there aren't any non-vegan ingredients in the sandwich. The menu shows tofu, cilantro, vinegar carrot, vinegar radish, cucumber, jalapeños, and soy bean sauce, so it doesn't seem non-vegan, but I wanted to be sure. She seemed confused about what vegan means, so I explained that we don't consume dairy, eggs, or any other animal products, and she confirmed it would be fine. So, I ordered it without cilantro. The sandwich was pretty big for a size small. The bread was crusty and it had a lot of tofu and carrots. The tofu was very wet, like there was a puddle of liquid that dripped from the sandwich. I wish it had been more veggie-focused, like I was craving more cucumber, radish, and maybe even mushrooms. The drink was good, it had two pieces of lychee fruit, which I loved. I ordered 25% sweetness, but it was sweeter than expected. I would order it again but ask for 0% sweetness if possible. Although the interior is very cute and I liked the vibe, I've had better vegan banh mi's, so I don't think I would go out of my way to eat here again.

    1. Grilled Pork Sandwich 7. Vegetarian Sandwich  Avocado Smoothie, Peach Strawberry

    Stopped by here on a whim with my friend on a Friday night around 7:30PM and we will DEFINITELY be coming back! Saigon Breadfast is an unassuming little store that shares a plaza with Walgreens, Nijiya Market, etc. that you could easily miss if you're not looking for it. For food, they have various types of banh mi and some other small appetizers, but they're mostly known for their banh mi. For drinks, there're plenty of options as well, ranging from smoothies to fruit teas to milk teas to matcha varieties. Think mini boba shop that also carries excellent banh mi. Inside decor is cozy, chic, and clean, very much giving a cute coffee shop vibe. My friend and I were super impressed by the food and drinks here! Both our banh mis tasted great - fillings were tasty, good quantity of veggies, solid portion size. As another reviewer mentioned, the bread is done right! But the real showstopper were the drinks. My friend got one of the avocado smoothies - either the Avocado Blend or the Avocado, I'm not sure? - and it was AMAZING. Creamy, not too rich, not too sweet, SO yum. It'd be worth it to come back just for that. I opted for a strawberry peach fruit tea with lychee jelly, and it hit the spot, exactly what you would expect. Staff were friendly and helpful! They let us stay past closing time to finish our food and conversations while they were cleaning up, which we felt bad about but they were so gracious and made us feel comfortable. I was telling my roommate about this place after getting home and it turns out that it's also her go-to banh mi place! What a gem of a find. Can't wait to come again! EDITED TO ADD: Forgot to mention that the pricing also felt appropriate! They do a little combo deal - $16 for a drink + sandwich, which feels like a steal in today's economy haha. Perfect for a grab-and-go lunch treat if you're in the area.

    Pretty good pastries and pate chaud. The vietnamese coffee is very strong. The interior is really cute and modern, definitely a nice place to meet up with friends or just work.

    Cute decor
    Aurelia T.

    Im supper glad that finally a legit banh mi spot is open in the area. Ambiance is nice and clean with lots of tables, cute decor. Staff is friendly and welcoming. The banh mi and all drinks are so bombbbb. The combo deal is such a steal because banh mi are loaded and drinks are even better than some branded boba shops. PSA: the #8 is "SEASONING" pork belly aka the reddish saigon jambon in the banh mi, not "ROASTED" or heo quay. Keep that in mind when you order. It was still very good but i couldnt finish the whole banh mi with just that jambon. It's better paired with head cheese and chả. Highly recommend the #6. Menu also carries lots of viet small bites: cha gio, pate chaud etc Will def come back for more and recommend to friends and family !

    3.5 stars maybe 4 - Bread was very soft! I had the veggie sandwich and it was pretty good the vegan meat was really unique in texture in a good way but I think the soy sauce was wayyy too sweet for my taste I also got an egg coffee which was really strong and a bit more bitter than I expected - again not really my taste. Overall food was good and filling but maybe a little not my palette. Inside was very cute !

    Airy bread with a good balance of meat and pickled veggies. There is limited seating inside for dining in.

Customizations are welcome. Sandwiches were good and very filling. The only complaint on my end was the shredded lettuce that made for messy eating- I would have preferred whole leaves. Honey wheat isn't recommended if you plan on eating your sandwich later- this bread is softer and will become soggy quite quickly. 4 stars. The bread to protein ration is fair, food is tasty, and the staff was kind. I'd say this was a good first experience.

I have tried smoked ham hocks from other sources, but the results were so bad that I threw out the soup. The only place I have found that has true smoked ham hocks is Dittmer's. I noticed the price of ham hocks has gone up. But many of the other prices have held steady. The store remains neatly organized and is spic and span. It's kind of what you would expect from a German shop. Carlo's black bean soup from All around the world cookbook by Sheila Lukins. Totally worth a 2.5 hour drive. 2 pounds of black beans Quarter cup olive oil 3 cups, diced onions Eight cloves of garlic, bruised and peeled. One smoked ham hock 6 quarts water 2 tablespoons +1 teaspoons ground cumin 1 tablespoon dried oregano Three bay leaves. 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper Pinch of cayenne 6 tablespoons chopped flat leaf parsley 6 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves. 1 teaspoon salt Two medium red bell peppers, diced reserve a quarter of a cup for the garnish Quarter cup dry sherry 1 tablespoon pack of brown sugar 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice. One cup of crème fraîche or sour cream. Soak the beans overnight, drain and rinse. Heat the oil over low heat and sweat the onions and garlic, about 10 minutes. Add the beans with the ham and the water to a large pot. Stir in the 2 tablespoons cumin, the oregano, bay leaves, black pepper, cayenne, and 2 tablespoons each of the parsley in cilantro. Bring to a boil, then simmer, uncovered until the beans are very tender and the liquid is reduced by about 3/4. This will take about one and a half to two hours. Transfer the bone to a plate and let it cool slightly. shred the meat and return it to the pot. Stir in the remaining 4 tablespoons parsley, 2 tablespoons cilantro, salt, and all except 1/4 of a cup of the bell peppers, the remaining 1 tablespoon cumin, the sherry, brown sugar and, lime juice. Simmer another 30 minutes, stirring frequently. Adjust the seasoning and serve hot. Garnish with a dollop of crème fraîche and a sprinkling of the diced peppers and chopped cilantro. Eight large servings or 12 small portions.
