The new owner (couple years or so) has improved the quality tremendously. The baguette on the sandwiches is perfect. They are $5 now but the size is just right. I was stuffed after one. The pork was tender and delicious. read more

I'm guessing at the address, I'll have to double check it later, but this new location for the Seattle Deli is right next to Boo Han grocery store in Edmonds on Hwy 99. Worthy effort and compared to the actual "Seattle" location, this one is far better in my opinion. The Banh Mi is packed with goodies, granted they have only been open a month now. Oh, there's a 10-20% discount during their Grand Opening! The sandwiches are solid, they use the "official" bread from Seatac, professional Banh Mi eaters will know what I'm talking about.... The grilled meat in our sandwiches was perfect, tender and tasty, a sheer delight as we no longer have to drive to the ID to get these wonderful sandwiches. For $2.50, it'sa great find! The "hot" counter is subject to inspection for the more adventurous, we asked about several items, they looked good, but we stuck with our standard sammies from heaven.... Decent amount of parking, oh, and CASH ONLY!! read more

Seattle Deli - Oh snap!! - Vietnamese Near Me - Edmonds, Washington

Banh cuon always. Staff is super friendly. Prices are reasonable. It's always busy = fresh food all the time. read more

This is why I love Yelp. After writing a review I was just poking around seeing what was "hot" in my area and saw a review for Seattle Deli. Couldn't believe I hadn't been as Than Brothers is a frequent place for dinner for us. Told the hubby about the $2.50 sandwiches and it took us less than 24 hours to get over there. I am a big Pho fan, so I still opted for Than Brothers, but the hubby got the BBQ Pork Sandwich AND the Special Sandwich. We also got some eggrolls from there. Eggroll and the bite of his BBQ Pork were delish. I couldn't believe it tasted so good for so cheap! Definitely will have to get one for myself next time. Boo Han Plaza has become the place for dinner! =) read more

Not sure what people are really complaining about... You want to pay two, three, or even four more times for the same Banh Mi in a cooler, hipper Vietnamese spot closer to the city? Be my guest. The service is what it is-don't expect them to smile and ask how your day was, you're getting a damn good, fresh Vietnamese sandwich at a fraction of the cost. And I don't just come here for the Banh Mi, but for the steamed buns and vermicelli dishes as well, which make the perfect lunch or quick dinner on a budget. They're all tasty, not overly saturated with salt or spices....and all more than worth what you pay. Eat it and be happy that most people in this world have to pay way more for a soggy, processed sandwich made from frozen ingredients at Subway or Quizno's. read more

My church orders their Banh Mi's every so often for community events. They always do a phenomenal job at getting the order to you on time and their portioning is always filling! If you have an event that needs catering, Seattle Deli is the place for you! I highly recommend Seattle Deli for catering orders! Their food, price point, and portions are great and will exceed your expectations. Also, my favorite thing to get here are their spring rolls, egg rolls, and rice/sides! And if you ever need some coffee, I highly recommend their Vietnamese iced coffee! If I'm ever craving some traditional Vietnamese dishes, Seattle Deli is the place to do go! If you haven't been here, you should make the trip now!! Note: plenty of parking, cash only, good for lunch, no dining area, carry-out/to-go orders, And lastly, Remember to tip and support your local businesses! read more

Cash only!! This is a take out place! In my opinion their banh mi's are better than yeh yeh's but not the best I have ever had. I do like that they have a huge variety of Vietnamese dishes! I usually get the bbq pork banh mi, Vietnamese spring rolls, and pork/ egg roll vermicelli dish. I get enough to have some left overs for the next day. Don't recommend the bubble tea or Thai ice tea because it's too powdery and way too sweet! Overall the staff is friendly and if you don't know what something is they try to explain it to you. read more

This place has delicious bbq pork banh mi, che, and humbao. I love this place because it is decently priced and quick. I never have to spend more than $20 to have a huge meal between 2 people and still manage to have leftovers. The only downside is they only accept cash. read more

Seattle Deli - ShinHandZ x #peterchau - Vietnamese Near Me - Edmonds, Washington

The Vietnamese Sandwiches here are great, but in a different way than what makes Yeh Yeh's Bahn Mi great. The bahn mi here are more flavorful, the pate is much tastier and more authentic. The size is also more traditional, a balanced amount of meat and veggies, not bursting at the seams, but contained neatly inside the crusty baguette. They ran out of BBQ pork, so we had the chicken bahn mi ($2.25) and the special bahn mi ($2.25). Both were tasty, but the special may not appeal to the masses with it's Vietnamese ham and sausage slices, it's different. Great place for quick, cheap and tasty Vietnamese sandwiches. Cash Only. read more

Their hot dishes looked really interesting, and smelled delicious... I tried the sausage-stuffed tofu with tomatoes and onions, and it was really good. Their meatball hand pie was good too. The dumplings made with tapioca starch were slopping around in a bed of some rather old-tasting oil... Like they used their old fryer oil on them. That was the only thing I tried that I would not get again. The rating is for the service. The lady serving me this morning (10/30 ~9am) was very curt, impatient, and unhelpful even though I was the only customer present. I know I'm really white, but I probably respect your food and culture more than your own kids do. If you don't want my money, just tell me so at the door. read more

This is one of my favorite lunch spots for grab-n-go. The Banh Mi are $3.00-$3.25, so cheap that when I have extra cash on me, I get a couple extra for any co-workers that may want one. The sandwiches themselves are delicious, my favorite is the BBQ pork. They have many other hot and cold dishes but I love the sandwiches so much I never have room for more food! No muss, no fuss, just remember to bring cash! read more

You're not going to find better deals on authentic Vietnamese food anywhere else around! I go in regularly for my chicken banh mí or vermicelli bowl, and bubble tea for less than $10. There are so many yummy things in there, you won't be disappointed! read more

Great inexpensive sandwiches. As a white guy I have no clue what most of the stuff is there but I have ventured into a lot of the stuff there and have found some new favorite things. I would love to tell you what they are but all I can do is stand there and point and say yeah some of that. Bottom line good stuff at a good price read more

Seattle Deli - Some stuff out of the hot case - Vietnamese Near Me - Edmonds, Washington

I am very happy and satisfied to have lunch here. I ordered the pork chop rice with steam egg, and it is very delicious. Great deal! Excellent taste. Also, I like their pandan mug bean sticky dessert. They use real pandan instead of those artificial flavor. I wish they have one in Bellevue or deliver it to the east side. Otherwise, it will be my regular to go spot after the Sunday church service! read more

The workers there wiped their nose with their gloves and proceeded to prepare banh mi for me! Twice I have witnessed... while wearing gloves, the lady wiped her runny nose with a napkin, used that same napkin to wipe her gloves and proceeded to prepare food for me. These 2 instances made me want to throw up in my mouth. I like the food here. Prices are lower than other places. The ladies here are nice, but... To the ladies who work there, you all are very nice and friendly, but please wear NEW gloves if you wipe your nose. Especially if youre going to do it in front of me!! So disgusting!! Not coming back! Going to Rise and Shine instead! read more

I think the banh gio is good but banh cuon is super over priced compared to the other Vietnamese location. I won't go back but if you do, get banh gio only read more

Had the pork sandwich. Interesting, unusual flavors and very fresh, delicious. You'd hardly expect food this good from a place that looks this bare bones. Great value. read more

The bahn mi here was super good! Well my ideal of super good is a crunchy bread and that's is exactly what they had here. I didn't even eat it fresh and it was still good. This hole in the wall has a lot of choices all of which so far have been great. Also nice to see bahn baos here, that is hard to find in lynnwood. read more

Seattle Deli - The special banh mi - Vietnamese Near Me - Edmonds, Washington

I walked in at 1:30 pm on 7/5/19, there was nothing in the hot area. And bunch of items on the counter had post its on it that reads- Exp. 7/5/19 1 pm. I asked does that mean these are expired and the worker was like "oh they don't mean anything," Already feeling uncomfortable, I asked the worker which is the ham, but the one he pointed at doesn't look like the ones i normally buy but he reassures that it was the Ham. I drove all the way home and opened it to find it was sticky rice and not Ham. Im so upset especially when it was not cheap but I live too far to go back and return. read more

Seattle Deli - Deli Ham - Vietnamese Near Me - Edmonds, Washington

2 to 3 stars is about right. I purchased 2 different types of banh mi at Seattle deli, the special and the meatball sandwich. There was no option to add an egg on the sandwich. First, the special banh mi was average. It was lightly packed with meat, it had bbq pork which was dry and with my first bite of the sandwich I thought I had bitten into some of the wrapping paper because some of the slices of meat were really dry. The pate and fresh mayo was supposed to balance the dryness of the toasted bread and the meat but it did not do the job. The pate on the sandwich did not taste or look fresh. The other sandwich was a labeled as a xiu Mai or meatball sandwich. It was neither. Please see the photos below. The meat was minced pork packed in a sauce that looked gelatinously spread on the bread. The flavor was okay but it was in No WAY...a meatball. There was no pate and the bread had sprinkles of soy sauce. The bread looked commercial bought and not toasted in house due to The indentations on the bottom of the bread. I came into the deli looking for sandwiches, which I give 2 stars mercifully. The desserts were more 3 stars. Come for the dessert, stay away from the sandwiches. For a much better sandwich, go half a mile north to 200th and aurora and get yourself a 5 star banh mi at rise and shine. I'm so bummed I wasted 10 bucks on these banh mi. I should've spent that money on scratch it tickets and ate those. read more

I usually come here if i want some banh mi and too lazy to drive down to chinatown. They also have some many varieties of snacks/goodies..tho i have never tried them yet. Service is always great. The ladies there are always friendly and welcoming. A place to go to get my chicken banh mi with extra extra extra jalapeños!. read more

I got the special and pork. Those are very under seasoned and flavorless. The meat is quite grainy? I'm really disappointed. The pickled vegetables were good, then again it's easy to make. I don't think I'll be returning. I'd rather go to Chinatown and get it from somewhere else. FYI we threw away the pork one. Well half of it cause it was just flavorless and not edible. read more

I was referred here by a fellow foodie friend. She said they had the best bahn mi's on the planet. She was RIGHT! am ADDICTED to the bbq pork bahn mi. I bought one in the morning for breakfast one day (they open at 8a.m. YAY!). The entire rest of the day I craved another and it was the first thing I thought about the next morning (and returned to get early in the a.m.). Yum! Grilled smoky, salty tender pork, pickled crunchy veggies, cilantro, and spicy jalapenos on a crunchy on the outside/soft on the inside baguette all for only $3.25. I also noticed the green papaya salad on the menu ($4.00), I expected a small cup of salad. This thing was HUGE. Green papaya, shrimp (or you could choose a marinated beef as well), basil, red jalapenos, peanuts and a fish sauce/citrus/savory dressing (DELICOUS). They also have maybe a dozen or more 'hot' choices in their case that looked delicious as well as several choices in a cold case. They also had a few desserts (most of which I am not familiar with). My friend that referred me to this place highly recommends the egg rolls and about half a dozen other hot items; all of which I plan on trying in the next month or two. I highly recommend Seattle Deli for a cheap in price, yet NOT cheap in flavor meal. read more

Tried their pork bun. It was $2.50 and even though it was Saran wrapped the bun was very dry and crumbly not soft and moist like the good ones. Maybe I should have gotten it reheated. Their banh mi look decent though. read more

They catered our multi-family graduation open house! The food was delicious - so fresh, fragrant, and tasty. It was a beautiful spread and Johnathon was amazing. We called him an hour into our party and ordered 100 more egg rolls - they were ready in no time. Thank you Seattle Deli - our guests loved your food. read more

I've been a fan of their sandwiches for years. I used to go to the one in Little Saigon. I didn't know they had a shop in the North End too!

Go here all the time! Friendly staff, quick service, and unbeatable prices! Get the grilled pork banh mi, BOMB!

DELICIOUS chicken banh mi! Also, really good small snacks made from tapioca etc. Delicious spring rolls too.

Love coming here for bahn mi sandwiches. The sandwiches are only $3.75 or less. Their shrimp salad rolls and fried egg rolls are delish as well. They have so many other things that look tasty so I'm definitely going to try them in the future. read more

i made it out of here with $4 and some spare change! i wanted that banh mi sandwich thing, but chose the similar sandwich with bbq pork instead on the recommendations of the super-sweet ladies behind the counter. This wasn't the red-skinned, icky bbq pork you find at the grocery store...this had meaty chunks of pork that were akin to juicy chunks of fried bacon. The same fixings that come with the usual banh mi sammies accompanied it. They don't skimp on the fillings, either (i took pictures and posted them, if you want to torture yourself). After perusing their unusual and mysterious pre-packaged food display, i settled upon sticky rice wrapped in banana leaves (or some kind of leaves) that were stuffed with sticky rice, mushrooms, an egg, and sausage. When i unwrapped it at home, i realized that visually, this item was not going to win anybody over. But it was so....good. A little gooey, like mochi, a little salty, warm, with a little eggie sitting inside. The egg's yolk was cooked, but so creamy, it was more like a mousse. Don't be afraid to try stuff here, because it's cheap, and chances are (according to Andrew Zimmern on the Travel Network) that the more disgusting it looks, the better it tastes! Then go next door to the Boohan Market, but a quarter in the instant coffee/milk machine near the bakery items, and get a little, hot steaming cup of pumpkin milk. *joy read more

holy macaroni is this true? Is it really Seattle deli!??? Yes yes yes!!!! So it's just like the one in Seattle; not as busy but the quality is pretty much the same. I love Seattle deli's chicken sandwich and their hot foods :) if I am hungry for some home cooked fast food to go before work... This is where I go. Let's welcome Seattle deli to Edmonds!!! -clap clap clap- read more

Just finished my pork Bahn mi. The good: bread was fresh, very good texture and taste. Vegetables were good too, and the amount was perfect. Very good balance. The not so good (aka bad): the meat was very tough/dry and taste was distant. I think it was done a day or two ago. It's 12:15pm and I am sure was not done this morning. I hope they invest a little more time preparing and storing the meat, or better yet, grill it daily. I would go back and give a second chance. read more

$2... fresh... tofu... sandwich... on baguette... made in front of me! All the fillings for Bahn Mins at Seattle Deli in Edmonds (Hwy 99) are in a hot display case- Tell them what you want when you walk in and they get to making it. My sandwich has fresh marinated thinly sliced tofu, carrots, dakon, jalapeno, cilantro, mayo, pepper, and spice. The sandwich was large but not as big as places like Yeh Yeh's- which is totally OK. The Seattle Deli sandwich was delicious- one of the best tofu sandwiches so far I have ordered- I am so glad I finally stopped in. By the register, they offer a bunch of Styrofoam syran wrapped to-go items like spring rolls. The shrimp spring roll were too tempting so I added it to them order. The spring rolls were fresh and tasty. I loved the dipping sauce which was a cross between peanut and sweet chili sauce. FYI's~ * Cash only- there is an ATM in the Boo Han Market next door * Seattle Deli also sells frozen treats and baked goods- not a huge variety though * Spring Rolls and a Tofu Sandwich= $4 * Seattle Deli Edmodns is perfect of dropping into on the way home and grabbing quick, cheap, quality food read more

When my mom told me that there was a Seattle Deli in Edmonds, I couldn't believe it. Having recently moved up north, I missed the quick trips to Chinatown to get my Vietnamese sandwich fix. A few weeks ago, I went and found the new one and ordered a few-the ladies working there were so cheery and friendly; the cashier said that items were 10% off because it was near closing time. Whoohoo! The Edmonds location doesn't have as much as the Seattle location but it's just as clean and has the more popular items. I usually get the sandwiches, spring rolls and soda. I love Seattle Deli! read more

Dang, not sure what is up with all the low reviews. This place is legit when it comes to Bahn Mi's and the vermicelli. Also the cafe su da hits the spot. Maybe some of these customers don't quite understand how asian customer service works. Here some advise, walk into the place and know what you want either by looking at the menu or items around you. Stand up close to the register so they can hear you. Place your order straight up and be upfront about it. If you have a special request, make it simple to understand and have cash ready. Pay and walk away happy. Simple as that. I've been coming here for years as well as my friends and family and have never had issues ordering or getting greeted. read more

My friend told me she bought the " banh tet" in this store $20/each. I came to this store next day and they wanted $21/each. This store did not post the price in the items so they could change it anytime they want. Dont go to this shop unless you dont care about being riped off. Go to the other place to find the similar item with the resonable price. read more

The chicken banh mi was better than the first time when I had the pork. The bread however, was stale this time. And the inside of that shop was so stifling hot on a 60 degree day, i don't know how they keep all of those spring rolls and meat filled goodies at a resonable temp where if you bought and ate them they wouldn't give you gastrointestinal irritation... read more

Cheap... I think that's really all this place has going for itself. I've eaten here only twice but the second (and last) time I ate here solidifies the single star review. I got food poisoning from a sandwich there. I threw up so much that night I didn't go in to work the next day. Hit Yeh Yeh's a few miles north for a decent Banh Mi... But avoid this joint... read more

Beat still my little heart... The barbecue pork bánh mì is simply divine. It's exactly what I have been craving since I worked down the street from a little Viet mom and pop deli in the Genesse area. The bread was a little warm and had a perfect crunch with great chewiness on the inside. The pork, veggies and peppers were well proportioned and all flavorful. The sauce was delish (not a plain mayo) as well. As I drove down the road, I started to get sad that this delicious sandwich was almost gone, I considered turning around to buy another one. I also grabbed a tray of tofu spring rolls and they were darn tasty too! read more

Having tried a few more things I thought I'd give an update: The chicken sandwich - good, but only get it if they run out of the BBQ pork. The "special" sandwich - has different types of thinly sliced sauagey type meets, I like all the fresh veggies in it, but the meats are a little questionable. The bubble tea - One scoop of this white powder, another scoop of another, one scoop of ice, hmmm... doesn't sound like a good combination. So beside the fact that they gave me a smoothie (which was way too sweet - I guess too much of scoop number one) when I just wanted a milk tea (okay, let that one go), and they left out the bubbles (not letting this one go because I've got a kid in the car who wants BUBBLE tea, not just tea), they actually made a huge deal out of it when I asked them to put in the tapioca balls, the story goes on but I'll stop and end with, don't get any bubble tea here, they don't know what they are doing. I'm still going back for their sandwiches and fresh spring rolls :) read more
