Solid banh mi. This isn't a traditional banh mi (the pickled veggies are a bit different and no pate but house aioli instead) but I still really enjoyed it and would come back. If you are a protein lover, the meat filling here was probably the most I've seen in awhile. I ordered the grilled pork banh mi online to save time but realized when I checked out that their online ordering platform is Doordash so the prices are elevated vs ordering in person. I think it's only $1 difference but if you have time to wait in person, no need to overpay to save a couple minutes (when it's not too busy). read more

Worst thing that could happen to me, working down the street from this place! I have been here 3 days in a row. The pork bahn me was so big and delicious The pork was cooked to perfection, seasoned well, and the fresh veggies...I may have to go back for day 4! I also had the catfish and rice plate which was so scrumptious. The person who helped me each time is a sweetheart, with the most beautiful hair. I love this place! I wish I could have taken pics but I ate it to fast. read more

If you know, you know--and Tin quietly does bún thịt nướng the way it should be done. The pork had real grill flavor with a nice char, clearly marinated and made with good-quality meat (which matters more than people admit). The bowl was thoughtfully composed with fresh, crisp vegetables, silky noodles, and a balanced sauce that tied everything together without overpowering the dish. Nothing flashy--just clean flavors and solid execution. Service deserves a shout-out too. The person taking our order was genuinely kind, extremely helpful, and very polite, which made the experience feel warm and welcoming from the start. This is the kind of place you return to when you want something satisfying but not heavy--simple, dependable, and done right. read more

My fellow Yelpers are spot on. I finally ventured to checkout for myself if the sandwiches here were worth the hype and wow they were.

I was visiting SF and decided to check this place out. I got the roasted pork Banh Mi sandwich and the ginger salad. It's very popular lunch spot in town. I came during the lunch rush so it was about 30 minute wait for the food. I wasn't in any rush. The place was clean and had an ordering counter. Also a takeout window as well. The sandwich was huge and very tasty. The salad was delish, light and hit the spot. I would highly recommend checking this place out. read more

Wonderful takeout spot for lunch with authentic flavors and generous portions! I got the bun cha hanoi vermicelli bowl with added side of cha goi. It came with three pork patties in the dipping sauce. The pork had good flavor, a little dry but having it with the sauce it came in fixed it! I loved the lettuce and mint that comes in every bowl. The cha goi was a little lacking, needed more filling and was a little chewy. Will come back for their other more popular meats and banh mi! read more

Tried their Bun Bo Nuong (marinated rib eye) and it was delicious! Thin slices, easy to bite into and break apart. None of those huge uncooked chunks that gives you a hard time chewing! These were tasty and soft. There are no places to sit, so take-out only. Beware it can get pretty busy during peak hours, but they work quickly. Will be back to try some other dishes soon! read more

Great bahn mi - from the crunchy and light baguette, packed with protein. Just not my style because I prefer a ton of pickled veggies balanced with my protein. The ratio was just off for me but the pork was seasoned and grilled perfectly! read more

Tín on Kearny - Generous bbq pork! - Vietnamese Near Me - San Francisco, California

I tried their Bun Noodle Bowl with 5-Spice Chicken, which came with vermicelli noodles, red leaf lettuce, cucumber, bean sprouts, pickled carrot and radish, and a small tub of crushed peanuts. The chicken was skin-on, boneless thigh pieces. We also added a cha gio roll, filled with minced pork and shrimp, wood ear and shiitake mushrooms, glass noodles, peanuts, lettuce, fresh herbs, wrapped in a rice paper and served with a fish sauce-based dipping sauce. The chicken was perfectly cooked, featuring a lovely charred, grilled exterior while remaining moist and very flavorsome inside. The shredded lettuce and pickled vegetables added a fresh, tangy contrast, especially when dressed with the fish sauce dipping sauce. What really stood out was the cha gio roll -- bursting with a rich, mushroom-forward flavor that was incredibly delicious. That really blew my mind especially since I love mushrooms. Overall, it was a very tasty lunch, and I would definitely order this again! read more

I always see a long line outside of Tín during the lunch rush and finally gave it a try today -- I have zero regrets! The line to order was really long, so I'm glad I chose DoorDash pickup and was able to skip the wait. Everything about my dish was fresh and delicious, and I even have enough leftovers for lunch tomorrow. They packed in a generous amount of meat, which I definitely appreciated since some places can be a bit skimpy. I highly recommend this spot if you're looking for a yummy, filling, and fresh meal! read more

I grabbed the banh mi ribeye from Tin on Kearny for takeout and it absolutely blew me away. From the moment I unwrapped it, I knew I was in for something special. The sandwich looked incredible, with a perfectly crisp baguette packed with what had to be an inch of tender ribeye. It was heavy in the best way, and honestly just beautiful to look at. Every bite was flavorful and satisfying. The ribeye was juicy and well-seasoned, and the bread had that perfect crunch without being too hard. As a meat lover, this sandwich made me very happy. If I had one small wish, it would be for a bit more sauce or pickled veggies to keep things moist in the middle. It started to feel a little dry about halfway through, but the generous amount of meat really made up for it. Just make sure you have something to drink because it's definitely a thirst-maker. The price felt really fair for the quality and portion, and my food came out quickly and was still warm when I got back to the work place. Everything was wrapped up neatly and travel-friendly. I'll definitely be coming back to try more of their menu. If this sandwich is any indication, their entrees are going to be just as good. read more

My mind is blown. My life is changed. Their Bahn Mi brought be back to Hanoi, and not only was it the best Bahn Mi I've ever had, it was one of the best sandwiches I've had in the entire city of San Francisco. I got the 5 spice chicken, and it was loaded to oblivion with meat, veggies, and flavor. The raw jalapeños had some membranes and seeds intact which were a bit intimidating, and after removing some of them, I got the heat level dialed to just the right amount. They're crazy fast with the lunch crowd that forms like a hoard outside on Kearny St. I'd recommend Tin to anyone who wants amazing food for lunch at the edge of the Fidi. read more

I absolutely adore this place! It was around the corner from my hotel and the ratings were great so I wanted to try. When I stopped in pretty much immediately after it had opened, there was already a line. The people behind the counter are so pleasant and made sure to check in with me about my online order and worked to get it done faster when they saw me standing there. I got the Bun thit nuong with cha gio roll and I could eat this every day. The hint of mint in the greens is such a great flavor bump. It's refreshing and the pork is so delicious and full of the grilled lemongrass flavor. The vinegar sauce that is served with it is not too sharp and just deepens the flavors of the dish and ties everything together. I would absolutely eat here regularly if I lived in the area. read more

Tín on Kearny - Bun Thit Nuong with Cha Gio roll no cucumbers - Vietnamese Near Me - San Francisco, California

My go-to order: Five spice chicken banh mi, no jalapenos. Delicious take-out place that gets very busy around lunchtime. I arrived at 11:45pm and the line was out the door. Waited about 15 minutes to place my order and 10 minutes to pick up my food. Can also order pickup on DoorDash to save some time, but the online prices are about $1 more per sandwich than showing up in-person. Can add pate to any sandwich that doesn't come with pate for $2.50 extra. The pate was honestly a bit overpowering, so I don't usually get it. read more

I love this place. My standard is the tofu bun, but also like the 5 spice chicken and pork versions. Food is fresh and service is quick.

I think I love Tin's takeout concept even more than their actual restaurant. I got the five spice chicken noodle bowl and it was excellent. Really flavorful chicken (the chicken had a good char on the outside while still being tender inside) with generous portions, and the veggies and noodles were a great compliment. And I swear I got my food like 2 minutes after I ordered. They run an efficient operation here. read more

Great food! Workers are great, my order has never been wrong. I've had their banh-mi and papaya salad, never get sick of them! read more

Absolutely delicious every time. The ribeye bahn mi, 5 spice chicken vermicelli bowl and the imperial rolls (cha gio) hit the spot every time. The meat is high quality and super flavorful and they are generous with their serving sizes. Loved it so much that we get catering from Tin whenever we can and everyone always agrees its a hit! I'll have to try more items but I am sure they are all excellent. Don't ever change! read more

Came around 11:25am, not sure if they have a lunch rush at noon but there were 4 people waiting for food and many orders that were ready for people who called ahead. No seating area and no bathroom. Was greeted by the cashier and seems like staff has great communication with each other! read more

Lemongrass chicken vermicelli - 3.9/5, SUPER flavorful! Lots of chicken thats well seasoned over vermicelli and some veggies. Chicken was tender. There wasn't too much lemongrass flavor unfortunately. Only issue is that it was a little too salty, my tongue started getting numb. I would like to go back and try the five spice chicken, but I'm a bit afraid of the salt. read more

Being Vietnamese, I struggle to eat viet food outside of my house and even worse, justify buying it. THIS PLACE HAS CHANGED ALL MY EXPECTATIONS. This place is amazing, the food is so good. If you're walking by around 10 am, that's them grilling meat and chicken you smell. It's smells fantastic from even the outside. My favorite is vermicelli bowl but the Banh mi is also good and flavorful. read more

Definitely one of the nicer hole-in-the-wall food spots of the area. There's no seating or tables to have your meal as dine in so take out is the only option but the food truly makes up for it. Came right before the lunch rush and ordered a Ribeye Banh Mi and Thai Milk Tea. Both were extremely flavorful and well prepared. The sandwich was fully stacked with fresh and tasty ingredients. And the thai milk tea was tasty and neutrally sweet to pair with the sandwich. Highly recommend giving this place a try when in the area. Certainly satisfied my vietnamese food craving. read more

Tín on Kearny - Banh Mi Pork - Vietnamese Near Me - San Francisco, California

What a lucky find for me in FiDi. I initially was in disbelief that a decent banh mi would be available outside of the Tenderloin or Little Saigon in the South Bay. I didn't have high expectations because many places downtown that offer banh mi's aren't necessarily good in my opinion. We ordered the pork belly and the lemongrass pork bahn mi's and it was surprisingly delicious. The french roll was crispy, the pork belly was just a bit fatty with a slice of pate. The lemongrass pork was equally flavorful and loaded with pork. Both sandwiches were generous with meat. I noticed that the vegetables on the sandwiches were thinly sliced instead of traditionally shredded. It's pricier than most banh mi's, but for the taste and amount of meat, it was worth the $13 price tag. Other places in the area charge similar range, but does not taste as good. The house made aioli sauce was particularly nice--great flavor. The service was excellent, our sandwiches were made promptly. The only downside is that there is no inside table seating available and is takeout only. I definitely need to come and try their other menu items, but for that, I would prefer the option of inside seating to enjoy. Worth checking out of you are in the area. read more

Delicious!!! There's no seating inside- just takeout. There were people waiting for their orders but it didn't take too long to get my food (it was lunchtime). I ordered the hue rolls and the shrimp spring rolls with the fish sauce on the side and they were both delicious. Kinda like a salad wrapped in rice paper! With all the wonderful fresh herbs and flavors. I particularly liked the hue rolls. Give it a try sometime! It was walking distance from my hotel which was very convenient too. Seems to attract lots of people who work in the area. read more

This is mainly for the food. We order a variety of food here. I can only speak for my dish. Definitely was hungry! Forgot to take a photo before digging in lol. The bun thit nuong with shrimp was so good! It was a little pricey and wished it had more pickled daikon and carrots. Totally recommend if you want something quick for lunch! read more

Tín on Kearny - Bun Thit Nuong with shrimp - Vietnamese Near Me - San Francisco, California

Fast service that's friendly. I always come here for lunch during my work break. Definitely one of the more underrated banh mi in the city. I can justify its price because they LAYER that meat. And I can't have enough pâté so they satisfy that. Get their sandwiches!! Not pictured in my review is also their Tin rolls. I have never come across a spring roll like that, with bbq pork and egg? It was tasty and pretty good portion if you're looking to share with a friend. Too bad they don't have seating inside the restaurant but the ambiance is chill, basically it's big enough for groups to wait for their orders. No waiting outside in a line! They are responsive on the phone, so look into calling in your order for pickup if you need your order quick. read more

I found the best Vietnamese restaurant, hands down. I cook gourmet Vietnamese food all my life and I know when a well garnished with fresh ingredients when I taste one.

I had business trip for 1 week in Nob Hill and I pretty much rode cable to try lunch at different place every day. read more

Absolutely delicious. Get the pork bahn mi. They seem to close pretty early in the afternoon after the lunch rush. Great gem
