    Reuben sandwich and mango tea

    This place is a hidden Jem. The food is delicious hot and tasty. I will definitely return to try some different items on their menu.

    Seating area

    Met one of the owners, Khoi, and another member of the team, Lenny. Very nice people. Great customer service. BYOB if you'd like with no huffs and puffs about it. I brought my glass bottled spring water (Mountain Valley), and Lenny asked if I'd like ice for it. What a warm welcome. Every business should allow it. Think about it...the customer is already in the door and ready to try what you have to offer...why not let them feel at home? They may be more inclined to try other foods and the drinks you have just for the sake of trying and wanting to support your business even more! Loved it here. Ordered the pork bahn mi and asked them to add tofu so I could try it. My friend is vegetarian and I can't vouch for what I haven't tried so they were quite accommodating. I was willing to pay any extra to sub, but they didn't charge me any more than the amount for just a regular pork bahn mi. Kudos to Khoi for the executive decision. Surely, this small gesture is only going to help grow your success and bring in more loyal patrons! I've been converted! Just bit into the tofu and yum! Tried the pork too! It was so savory and tender...well seasoned indeed! Absolutely loved the fresh baked bread. It's softer than the normal banh mi, but still have the some crunchy textures and bite, with a tiny bit of chew...and, I won't get my mouth all cut up like Edward Scissorhands was in there!

    Zen Veggie banh mi (vegan)
    Matt B.

    Results sandwiches and Vietnamese sandwiches, as well as Vietnamese/pan Asian plates. I got the Zen Veggie, a banh mi with vegan deli meat, carrot, daikon (radish), vegan pate, vegan mayo, jalapenos and cilantro, served on the usual French bread. It came out in about 5 minutes in a pretty large portion -- good value for money. I liked everything about it: all the flavours and textures worked well, pretty authentic, and the vegan deli meats were well-chosen. Solid spot, friendly service, good value food. Recommended.

    Zen Combination and Vietnamese Iced Coffee

    Grabbed a quick bite to eat for lunch. This place is tucked away in a small strip plaza off of San Carlos Blvd and offers a wide variety of sandwiches. I ordered the Zen combination Banh Mi and it did not disappoint. The saltiness of the meats and the sweet and sourness of the pickled carrots and daikon was a perfect balance.

    2 slices of vegan meat for an $11 danish is NOT OKAY
    Fairy T.

    It's really disheartening to get only 2 slices of vegan meat on the sandwich. How many times I've given my hard earned money to this place and this happens often. If a carnivore got the same amount of meat on THEIR sandwich I'm sure they'd also be upset. DO BETTER! If you're running out of the meat then cancel that sandwich off my order!

    Pho tofu and veggie.

    Best Pho that I've found in Lee County. Everything is fresh and priced right. This is a great hidden gem.

    What a perfect name. We came in 45 minutes before close and Lenny made a point to make sure we felt like we could stay all night if we wanted. We had the chicken egg rolls, pork dumplings, and pork banh mi. Everything was fantastic but the bread was what really brought it all together by being soft and crunchy at the same time. There was plenty of seating and just an overall great experience. We can't wait to come back!

And I'm not saying that's bad, but if you don't have great teeth, forget it. Again, the bread is delicious and the cheese and meats are top-notch. I had the Italian sub but needed to heat it up in the microwave to soften the bread a bit. The wait times are absolutely ridiculous. Today they told us they were to shorthanded 4 people behind the deli counter and the wait was 45+ minutes. Some of the items are very very overpriced. The sub was not. It was about 10 bucks for the Italian sub. We bought the mozzarella with the tomato for $9.99 a pound. It was absolutely flavorless! I understand the mozzarella is fresh made, but the tomato was rockhard and ridiculous. SO disappointing. We paid way too much for that. Try it but good luck on wait times. Parking in back is better than waiting for a spot in the front of the store off 41.

    Have eaten here before and food quality has been okay…read more It's a hike for us to get there - 30 mins so have to really be in the mood for it. Okay - website says they're open until 9. Google says 9. We show up at 7:54 PM and they're only taking to go orders. Not allowing people to sit at the tables. We're not gonna take hot food 30 minutes home - eating there was sort of a necessity as we didn't feel like eating dinner in the car! So if we're being technical, I guess you could say they were "open", but really not "open". Look guys, if you want to get out of there and close at 8:14 or 7 PM or 2 PM - update the damn hours on the website and Google so we don't waste $4 per gallon gas coming all the way over there. If you're open until 9, that means taking the last order at 9 and letting people sit there and eat until they're finished. This sucks guys - is this literally the best you can do here? Wow

Overall, decent dining experience!
