This is the best Bahn Mi I've come across in Santa Rosa! It's out of the way but I'll gladly make the drive when I'm in the mood for a bahn mi! I've had the 5 spice chicken and lemongrass pork sandwiches and both were very tasty! I'd say the chicken was my favorite because the meat was a little less fatty. If fat doesn't 'bother you, then go for the pork! They have a decent amount of meat, pate, lots of veggies, a delicious sauce. They are also pretty large for $6.75! The staff is friendly and the food is ready in a timely fashion. I haven't tried their milk teas yet but I will probably try one eventually. I'm pretty partial to some other places in town. read more

I tend to go here often since my office building is down the street usually for the over priced smoothies ... I sometimes get a sandwich but they always forget my cheese . My last sandwich I ordered today!! I FOUND A HAIR IN IT !!!! SOO DISGUSTING.... I threw up ! The place Is very over priced ... you're better off going to the Deli/store next door . Way better sandwiches at decent price . I will NEVER be going there again .... read more

First visit and really liked the food and service. Spicy pork banh mi was delicious. The bread and veggies were fresh. The nicely seasoned pork, moist and tender. Also enjoyed the House Special tea and the strawberry mango ice. This was a really good dining experience for the price. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Will plan on returning again. You must go. read more

It's kind of an out-of-the-way location, but I went here because I was in the mood for banh mi and a couple other places I meant to try happened to be closed. Ended up getting a banh mi (forget the exact one) and a taro milk tea. The entire meal was delivered and the two young Vietnamese ladies who helped me were very friendly. I'd recommend check them out. Note that the address is correct even though it doesn't look like you're at the correct place when you get there. They should have a bigger sign or something. read more

After seeing all of the good reviews and cute photos for Yo panda, my boyfriend and I wanted to try it. We love boba and have visited many other spots in the area. I saw a lot of pictures of their slushes on the yelp, with cute cups and fancy drinks, I wanted to take my own photo too. My drink was cool, but my cup did not advertise Yo panda :( We also tried to banh mi, we go two spicy pork. One to share and one to take to family for their lunch. Ours was pretty good, very juicy. The other one had a huge piece of fatty meat and once removed, there was not much meat left in the sandwich. I will be back because I thought my sandwich was good. But next time I want a cute cup! :) read more

I wish I could give zero star, the place is busy and that has driven down the quality of food, my bagel was burnt and I was charged twice the posted price. When asked about the price difference, they said that they have not updated the board pricing yet read more

Was craving Vietnamese food and found this gem not too far from me. They seriously have everything from banh mi's to plain sandwiches to burritos. I got the grilled chicken banh mi and it was DELICIOUS!! And of course I couldn't leave without also getting my favorite matcha smoothie. Highly recommend this place if you want to grab a quick bit...service was fairly quick. read more

How are you a sandwich that runs out of bread by 11am? The speed and lack of choices are alarming. I know where I won't be returning to. read more

As much as I keep wishing that this convenient spot would improve, my experience of them keeps getting worse and worse. While the food is decent, they just cannot seem to ever get my order right. Is this due to poor hiring? A language problem? the staff is friendly, but I have never been served by someone who speaks English as their first language... They *seem* to understand my order when they take it - but the contents of my bag (usually discovered after getting to my office) is almost never what I ordered. Oddly, they seems to be perpetually sold out of plain and sesame bagels - while their display cases is always choked by an abundance of flavored croissants that nobody seems to want. After so much wasted time and hard earned money, I won't be going back. Seeing how much food they throw away, due to incorrect orders, I don't give this business much more time... read more

The bagel are so tasty. I love everything bagel with cream cheese , lox , and tomato. And pizza bagel with cream cheese. Yum........ Never go wrong ice mocha. I will try breakfast burrito next time . The lady behind the counter was so friendly. She remembers most her customers order. read more

The lady in the front was so nice and welcoming, and the chicken sand which was delicious, my fiancé and I will definitely go back!

Sadly, I have to give a one star. I had been looking forward to trying a sandwich here for awhile. I had the spicy pork Vietnamese sandwich. I started to get worried once I saw that my pork was being reheated in a microwave. To make matters worse it didn't reheat evenly so I had cold and warm on the meat. The pork also had long pieces of fat hanging off it, with that mixed temp, it was hard to eat. I think the seasoning was very sweet, too sweet for me, not too spicy, but tons of fresh jalapeños. And the sandwich was just so sloppy. It was before 12 noon and they were out of bobba which was a bummer too. Oh and the girl at the counter was not friendly. At all. read more

I love this place. I've been coming here about once a week since they opened and I've never experienced the rudeness others have mentioned. Maybe you're the problem? Their bun and banh mi are all delicious. They do sometimes run out of bread or bagels of a certain variety... That's not a bad thing. It means they are made fresh daily. 5 stars for the friendly staff and fresh food. Plus it's cheap! read more

Just stopped in for my first experience. I ordered a breakfast burrito for about $7. Menu read; eggs, potatos, salsa and meat of choice. I figured simple enough. When i first recieved it I was delighted by it's size, nice and big. My first bite was as usual on a burrito full of tortilla and a little egg. My second bite consisted of me blurting out " Ow what the ****". Followed by an "ewww". The ow was from the scolding hot, probably microwaved mashed potatos they stuck in the middle. The ewww was from the same potatos because they were watered down and void of any SEASONING! I had flaming hot mush in my mouth! After painfully scraping the potatos out best i could with one finger as i drove down the road i got to enjoy an egg burrito. Remember the meat of choice? I do. I am still looking for it. I think I will come back when this location closes and another company opens. read more

Yum!! My first bahn mi sandwich i tried the spicy pork option, now i have to go back to try the chicken. Fantastic! And the drink carriers on the milk tea cups are genius read more

I would first like to say that I really used to enjoy this cafe. Due to a change in management, the quality of products, and the quality of service has greatly diminished. Today when I went over for breakfast, I requested that the lady that was preparing my food, and cashiering, wash her hands. She refused. I informed her that I watched her come in from outside only minutes before, but according to her, wearing one glove was good enough. I watched her touch a customers food without a glove before this conversation. The fact that she refused to wash her hands at the customers request is the biggest problem! I will not be returning. read more

I found Yo Panda when I was pregnant and had a craving for a Bahn Mi and avocado smoothie and had moved to a new neighborhood. It has become one of my favorite places. The staff are incredibly friendly and efficient. It has the perfect Mom and Pop environment, I always feel so comfortable and welcome. I absolutely love the spicy pork Bahn Mi and Thai Chicken Salad. I have never had a better avocado smoothie, it's huge and incredibly creamy. The taro boba tea and milk boba tea or so so good too. If you haven't been here yet I highly recommend you check it out. Food as good as any restaurant and very reasonably priced read more

I like this place. Good quality, big portions. Not anything super special but for the $5-8 price range it's really good. Service can be a little slow, definitely call in. read more

They serve delicious Vietnamese barbecued pork and barbecue chicken sandwiches they also have a five spice chicken and bbq pork vermicelli at Yo Panda! If you've never had the Boba in your lychee iced tea then you better bring the kids because they are going to love these beverages to cool off! We ordered a strawberry slushy with the strawberry Boba and he loves it and it's dairy free! read more

WOW I was so pleasantly surprised! Hidden gem for sure. A combination of Grateful Bagel ( IMO the most delicious bagels in SoCo) and an awesome Vietnamese menu and GIANT drink selection!! I had a bbq pork and rice plate that was delicious. Boba, many teas and smoothies. So impressed and I cannot wait to go back. read more

Great Banh Mi sandwich and friendly staff. I had the BBQ lemongrass pork. The meat was a bit mushy like it had been overcooked. Great bread and toppings but not blown away by texture of pork. read more

This place is great and they're so nice here! Not sure why the reviews are bad, some people must just be cranky. I'm originally from the north east and so I have high standards for bagel places. Now, California bagels will never match NY bagels, but this place is a pretty decent substitute. The coffee is good and now they have Vietnamese sandwiches which is cool! read more

Do yourself a favor and go to Yo Panda for a delicious Bahn Mi Vietnamese sandwich!!! They bake the baguettes fresh daily and everything is made from scratch! If you like pate on your Bahn Mi, theirs is good! Five Spice chicken, Roast Pork and the Combo are very good!!!! Get a bobo tea or shave ice for something sweet. Good parking, easy to get to, and super friendly staff!!!! read more

Kind of a bad joke. Don't know what business they ARE in but was there today and Cafe Bagel Croissants had no Bagels or Croissants. In the past I have found some but they were not fresh and a real challenge to buy one. Service .... there is none. Items are in a case with no name, price or identification. If you point, the girl has no idea what you want or how to get it. Very rude. Really clueless lack of organization. They aren't even trying. Cafe Bagel Croissants will certainly be out of business before summer is over. No way idiots like this can last in a commercial enterprise.. read more

One of the best little spots in town!! Delicious food! I recommend the BBQ pork over steamed rice their sauce is homemade! Yummy honey boba! read more

This place is perfect for corporate center parkway we needed a coffee shop close to the dialysis center that's open at 5am! The croissants are big and fluffy! They offer many different varieties and the coffee is always fresh. Today, I bought a French Vanilla Latte and it's better than Starbucks. The staff is also very friendly. read more

Staff is very rude!!! The only reason I'm giving them 3 stars is for convenience and quality of food. Their breakfast sandwiches are amazing if your willing to wait and be brushed off. You could be the only customer in the place and wait 15-20 min for a simple to go order. If the staff would stay of their cell phones and pay attention to customers I would consider a higher rating because the food is good. I hope they can get their act together before they go out of business. read more

Love this place for being so close to my work, easy yummy bagels and sandwiches and a cappuccino to die for. Large variety in smoothies and slushees too. Way better than Starbucks down the way. I go here twice or three times a week sometimes. read more

Wish I could give it 0 stars! I work right around the corner so it was nice to stop and grab a quick pastry and coffee before work. The food is blah but the customer service is ridiculous! When I first started going there were 2 girls working but never in the front area, so I would have to yell "hello!! Someone here?" Every morning. Yet, I still continued to go because of the convenience, not the food nor service. Then this last week I decided to grab breakfast, went with an egg croissant. I was the second in line, a women came in the door on her cell phone carrying grocery bags. She asked me what I wanted and I ordered. She then grabbed a freakn croissant with her UN WASHED HAND! Seriously!!?? I asked her to wash her hands and start over. She was not happy, nor was I. This was my last time coming here! read more

Really like their menu. Enjoy their fresh bagels and lunch sandwiches. Only downfall is that because the foods good, and location is good, their busy a lot. So sometimes there's a line. It would be awesome if they added a second register. I'm a frequent customer so I will continue to go. read more

Walking into a croissant shop that had only one tiny croissant left was the first sign that I shoulda walked out... The second was when I watched the bagels I regretfully ordered plop out of the toaster completely burnt... The third was the attitude of the workers that made me feel like I was inconveniencing them by ordering food from their sad establishment! read more

This place is absolutely horrible. Here are the reasons why: 1.Customer service - SO RUDE. They do not say good morning or good afternoon. Its what do you want? No please or thank you's. They just look at you with annoyance AS if you are a huge inconvenience. 2. Cleanliness - When you walk in it is bright and clean, however its the behind the scenes... The do not wear gloves all the time and they touch your food. A couple times I saw someone wipe their face, hair and nose and then NOT WASH their hands. 3. They are always out of something - they do not have the some cream cheeses, some types of bagels, the not have the mix to make the smoothies, etc. I highly recommend NOT going here. read more

I tried the banh mi and it was so incredibly good. Love the fresh croissants every morning. Staff/owners are so friendly and nice. Will go many times!!! read more

I wanted to like this place, and their banh mi are great. BUT, I just went in for coffee and she over charged me for my coffee. When I pointed this out she became quite rude. A great way to convince somebody not to go back. read more

I have eaten banh mi at just about every single spot in Sonoma County that serves them, and the ones at Yo Panda are legitimately among the best I have had! This is the only place I have had banh mi at that I feel holds its own and can go toe to toe with the ones at Simply Vietnam Express, especially for the BBQ pork. I have had both the five spice chicken and the BBQ pork at Yo Panda and while both were excellent, the pork is the standout winner. Actually Yo Panda even gets a few points in my book over SVE for their banh mi in that they are larger, and even slightly less expensive. And I also really love the fact that they don't up charge for adding pate to the sandwich! That is another big plus / advantage to Yo Panda. They are very generous with the ingredients in their banh mi (I find far too many places in the area really skimp on the meat and veggies and you end up with a bread sandwich), and everything tastes really fresh and well prepared. The bbq pork itself is delicious and the bread is also excellent and always tastes like it was freshly baked. In a weeks time I think I have already been back 5 times to Yo Panda, and will continue to go there when I want to satisfy my banh mi urge! Also really nice and friendly people who run the spot too! Definitely would highly recommend!! read more

Visiting from SoCal and wondered if there was any banh mi place and found this gem. Ordered a BBQ pork sandwich. Staff is super friendly. Taste is spot on and the flavor is fantastic. Who knew Santa Rosa had such a great banh mi shop. Also ordered Princess Peach tea, half sweet, just as tasty. read more

Outstanding Bahn Mi!!! Great shop, the staff is super friendly and they make one heck of a great sandwich. I had the lemon grass bbq pork Bahn Mi and enjoyed every bite. The meat was perfectly seasoned, fresh crisp vegetables and the bread is a sublime blend of crunch, sweet and chewy goodness. I will most definitely return, for I have found a new favorite santa rosa spot! read more

We had the pork combo banh mi. It was ok, a bit sweet on the marinade. The pate tasted ok, not bad for this area, and they didn't skimp on the meat, but not sure if I'd get it again read more

The reason why i am giving3 it's just because they have good customer service much better than cafe des croissants (Montgomery village) but idk what its wrong with the owners what are they thinking with the manager she make nasty salads idk what is. Wrong with her and the owners I do not like how she makes the food idk is she make the salads with her ass. read more

Work down the street from this place maybe once a month. I'm a Starbucks and Peet's kinda girl but this location is so convenient. The coffee is organic, and good enough for me to come back instead of driving 8 more minutes to Starbucks. Lattes are not so good. The blackberry filled croissants are delicious too. I have no complaints. It's not dirty, the cashiers have always been friendly. read more
