Mikey F.

Overall great bang for buck. The bahn mi are huge and delicious. Bread is fresh and not too crunchy. Downsides are the service is very unorganized. The ladies behind the counters are yelling and handing out special call in orders. Also, they have a secret menu thats not displayed anywhere. My order was forgotten and the order was wrong when I eventually got it. Also, the atmosphere isn't very welcoming. Its loud, hot, Dirty tables and floors. Its just a good fast food take out type place. I'll still be back to try other things but definitely won't be eating it there.

DISGUSTING FOUND A FLY IN MY FOOD!!!  Called the place and they kept on hanging up on me.  Horrible nasty place! Horrible customer service

If I could give less of a star, I would, I found this nasty ass fly in my sandwich and when I called, they just kept on hanging up on me. Didn't even wanna fix the issue. Don't go to this place.

This place is still my favorite Vietnamese Sandwich place!! Prices are still decent and I also love their Avocado slush!! So happy they keep their menu selection mainly the same for most. Service is decent here. This is a casual place and there is parking in the back.

Banh Tet cut and pan fried, very delicious!

This store has been a valley staple since forever! Prices are affordable and food is very tasty but don't expect clean and ideal place to dine in. It's best to get to-go. Bread is made in house in the morning so the earlier the better or else you'll get the classic issue of your sandwich tearing up your mouth. I love their dac biet #1 special sandwich, good amount of pate and stuffing. Service is quick, friendly, and efficient. If you speak Vietnamese they're incredibly excited to speak back in Vietnamese. Went here to get food for tet, their banh tet and banh Chung with dua mon is REALLY good here. Highly recommend it's the only place in the valley I know that offers them, and they're well priced for holiday seasonal food!

#11. Fried Egg Sandwich & #6. Grilled Pork Sandwich
Angel H.

Amazing banh mi place!! The bread of the subs are always crunchy & feel fresh. The customer service is great & straight forward. It's a cool mom & pop shop, they have casual indoor seating for you to enjoy your sandwich inside or you can just order & go if you're in a rush. They also have different flavored slushy boba & great Vietnamese coffee!

This is the very rude cashier, and the one who did our order. Beware of that woman!!

We tried this place because the VALLEY SANDWICH in Reseda Blvd (where I always order) was closed. We ordered #6, #9, and #12. The taste was just okay... nothing special. The liver pâté lacked flavor. And the service sucked! The woman at the register was so rude--while we were still deciding what to order, she shouted at us and said something we couldn't even understand. It was as if she was saying, "What's your order?" even though it was obvious we were still looking at the menu pictures on the wall. Then I paid using my card... an error occurred, and she said, "No money!" I felt so insulted. I tried again, and the payment went through. Then she started making our order. As we were watching, she shouted at us to sit down. But no--we wanted to see how it's done. My sister sat down anyway, worried she might skimp on our food. She may have been rude to cover up her lack of English. When we asked her about the food, she completely ignored us--it was obvious she had a hard time speaking English. This lady was soooo rude, it totally ruined my day! We will never ever be back. Oh--and your banh mi? So-so. Not even close to Valley Sandwich in Reseda!

Grilled Pork Banh Mi (Banh Mi Thit Nuong) $9.50 04/22/2025
RJ C.

I came in on 04/22/2025 around noontime. Food: I only wanted to try their Banh Mi, but was also distracted by their other food displayed at the counter. Grilled Pork Banh Mi (Banh Mi Thit Nuong) ($9.50): The sandwich is huge. The pork was flavorful, I asked for extra pate ($1.00). The bread is crispy. Bo Bia ($9.50): They were selling it for 3/9.50. The rolls are huuuge. The peanut sauce and chili crisp pairs well with the rolls. Sesame Ball (Banh Cam) ($1.50): it was crispy on the outside, and the bean filling on the inside is not too sweet. Pairs well with coffee. Service: The service took a while which was understandable. Tons of people were ordering to go. But they prepared the food at a reasonable speed. I appreciate that. The lady at the cashier was kind to answer my questions and she recommended some food for me to try, and it was great! Atmosphere: The dining space was clean. A little bit loud, but it's a restaurant so that's expected. Overall the food tasted great. Would come back and try their other banh mi. 10/10 would recommend to a friend.

Took a bite out of my sandwich and noticed a dead fly in my sandwich. Completely disgusting and an example of horrible quality control of this restaurants food. What's worse is when I went to show the worker the sandwich with the fly in it he disagreed and said it was "Black Pepper" than when I said look closely it's a fly he grabbed it then flicked it to the side. Completely unforgivable and avoidable if you show more care and understanding.

Aluminum in food

This place is a disaster, from a half hour wait for a 1 sandwich, to watching the cashier lady handle cash and cards and then grab bread by her bare hand to bag for customer. I got the number 6 which was mostly just fat pieces of pork, so I opened it up to try to remove the fat pieces and I found a piece of aluminum ( sandwich was wrapped in paper).

I'm almost upset that this place has been here and I'm only just getting acquainted. This is a zero frills restaurant but I don't need ambiance when I can have a sandwich this freaking good. Food was made quickly and I ate it probably too quickly because seriously how do they make it taste this good??

Love love love! It was my 1st time and ill definitely will be going back for more. Great prices and large portions.

Pre-made Vietnamese spring rolls. Made fresh and tasty.

One of the better Vietnamese sandwich stores in the Valley. It's probably the closest thing to Lee's Sandwich in the Valley.

Is there a vegetarian sandwich besides the tofu sandwich? Love their tofu sandwiches but also wanted a second choice. Thanks.

Yes! They have a mushroom banh mi or both tofu + mushroom and a veggie sandwich with avocado!

Our favorite place to get banh mi!…read more Small shop in Bangluck plaza. Free parking located in front of the back entrance. Menu is located on the wall. You order at the register. You can watch them make the sandwiches in front of you. The ingredients are fresh! Our go to is #10: pork banh mi. Today was the first time we ate it right away! The bread was perfectly toasted and had a nice, crunchy bite. The pork was still warm. The veggies were fresh and crunchy! It hit the spot. So good!! We usually order to eat with friends or pack for a trip, and they hold up well. The price for #10 was $10.25, but on the receipt it said $11.25. plus extra surcharge for credit card. I asked about the higher price, and they said tax. It would have been clearer if they specified tax as a separate line item, but at least now we know.

They have Pho as well as banh mi sandwiches, I got a sandwich during this visit. The #10 grilled pork with mayo and all the veggies, extra jalapeños. Let me just say, perfect, excellent, tasty, yum, etc. great sandwich, packed full of flavor, bread and pork are perfect, really, really love banh mi sandwiches anyway, but this one is true to the classic. All sandwiches are also $10, so go crazy and try a couple different ones, to me nothing beats the grilled pork though. You can enter from the street, but will have to find metered parking, so just drive around back, they have a small free lot and you can enter from the rear. There are not any seats to eat there, so everything is to go, but service is quick and the guy was nice behind the counter. Go check them out, grab a lotto ticket if your into that, get some great food, support a local woman & minority owned business, not enough of them out there. Enjoy!

The challenge was real, find a nearby local spot with decent submarine sandwich's. So I did what I…read morealways do, pull up Yelp. I was intrigued when I saw a spot that I had never heard of with a good yelp rating, I had to check it out. After reading a few of the reviews, and looking at the photographs I was sold. The Antidote delivery was close by, but let me tell you I had difficulty finding it. I want to make sure that others are aware of the challenge because it is definitely worth it. The issue is the signage. I was confident when I walked in and told Arthur, the gentleman behind the counter, that there was no sign, indicating Antidote Delivery, he politely corrected me. It turns out that next to the "market" sign there is an exclamation mark Which shows antidote delivery. My eyes went right over it and I never saw it, as a result I found myself circling around, trying to find the correct location. Once you find it, you may be hesitant to enter thinking that this is just a liquor store. In fact, this market has been here for 25 years and they prepare a fresh submarine sandwich that is delicious. So here is what you need to know upfront, the ambience is not desirable, so plan on a takeout. But if you're looking for a local business with a fresh delicious submarine sandwich, I would give this a try. Arthur was very kind to explain that they do deliveries within 5 miles for $2.99. So if you live within 5 miles you can order your sandwich and have it delivered. It's convenient because it's also a liquor store. You can order anything else at the same time and have that included for that nominal fee. It's always nice to support local places, this feels like a family business but I didn't ask so I'm not sure. One thing I'm certain of, I will be returning.

I had the steak Diane sandwich, and at the very first bite, I could not put it down. I literally finished the sandwich in 5 mins!! The steak was made perfectly, pink, tender, moist and the most flavor!! The bread perfectly toasted, the cheese pristinely melted so every bite had that ooey gooey stretch to it! For the sides tried their Cole slaw which is probably the best I've ever eaten. It had edamame in it, the slaw was a nice flavor of sweet and savory and wasn't overpowered by the mayo. I could eat the slaw with everything! Also tried their tomato soup turkey chili---sooo good!! If I didn't know better, I wouldn't have known it was turkey because it was very flavorful. Only thing I would add to make that over the top special would be to add some extra raw onions. The fish and chips sandwich was delicious! So crispy, light and crunchy with the coleslaw to make it perfect! Of course, paired with their home made chips that I dipped in everything! Soooo perfect!
