    Do NOT order their bubble tea drinks. Tapioca were hard and not soft or chewy. Drink tasted like chemicals.

    Banh mi was good and comparable to those in Houston. Ordered 2 of the #1 Special Hai Lua- pork and pate- 4.9€. Baguette was crispy and very big. I'm used to having it on French bread. Just wish there was more protein and veggies though. The almond bubble tea drink was SO gross though. I can't believe they sell it, have they tasted it themselves?? I've never understood how people can throw away bad food at restaurants (I hate wasting food), but this definitely was gonna be thrown away. It was THAT bad. The worst food I've ever had from an establishment. My hubby managed to just gulp it down though to salvage it. The tapioca pearls were not soft or chewy but rather hard. The drink itself tasted like chemicals!! When I got the drink, I knew I was in trouble because I could see the powder sitting on the bottom. I should've known that tapioca drinks is not their specialty when the guy asked the lady if they had the ingredients and then grabbed some boxes out of the cabinet. Do yourself a favor and stick to the food. The workers dont speak English, but they do speak Vietnamese. Slow service. Credit card accepted.

    What a cozy little spot! We came in on for an early, lighter dinner, and ended up sharing a bunch of different items, including a vegetarian banh mi, a couple nem, and a couple fresh shrimp spring rolls. The banh mi sandwich was good, interesting / unique "ravioli" for the vegetarian option! The bread was really nice. I loved the fresh spring rolls, and the nem were fried spring rolls, just for your information. To top things off, the folks here were super accommodating, bringing us fresh iced tea and a nice sesame seed dessert at the end of our meal. This is a charming place, fast, and very affordable. Check it out if you're around these parts, especially after a long day at the Pompidou!

    Great pho and English spoken here. Great for take-out. Small seating area. Patronized by locals.

    When in Paris, you must have French baguette and nothing beats a Bahn Mi on French bread!!

We tried the jambon sandwich and chicken baguette, paired with a golden ale beer and coffee. Both sandwiches were outstanding--freshly made with incredible bread, generous fillings, and a perfect balance of textures. The strong cheese they offer on the side is a must; it pairs beautifully with the sandwiches, and the staff even lets you try it before deciding, which is a great touch. We did go around 2pm and unfortunately the pastrami was already sold out, which speaks to how popular it is. We also waited about 30-40 minutes in line, but it moved steadily and didn't feel too painful. We were lucky to find a spot to dine in, though most people grab their food to go. Service was friendly and quick despite the constant rush. The atmosphere is more grab-and-go than sit-down, with very limited indoor seating. Most people take their sandwiches to enjoy at a nearby park, which actually adds to the experience. Be prepared for a queue, but it moves faster than expected--and the payoff is absolutely worth it for what might be the best sandwich in the city.

These sandwiches are curated, edible pieces of art made with love by the one and only Alain. It's easy to see why they're so popular. People love the sandwiches so much that his stall inside Marche' Des Efants Rouges can see lines lasting upwards of an hour or more. And people stay in the line. We lucked out and only had to wait about twenty minutes. I tell you, I'd wait all day if need be. I often dream of the sandwiches we had and can't wait to have them again. A picture is worth a thousand words and therefore, my photos can tell you everything you need to know about how good the sandwiches were. It makes me smile when I look at the pic of us with Alain. What a wonderful human being producing wonderful food for the people.

Charcuterie did come with good presentation like wood board or anything but it was a good portion. I didn't read the menu closely and ordered charcuterie as soon as saw it. I wanted to have some cheese with it. I should have ordered assiette royale which comes with both meat and cheese. I also ordered Andrea which comes with burrata. It was great with salad and lemon shavings but anchovies were pretty salty. I suggest to eat it with some kind of bread. Between that two orders, I was stuffed and couldn't even finish it. Honestly it was meant for 3 to 4 people. One of the employees speak English and she was very nice. Overall experience was great and good spot to hang out.

We sat outside at one of their small table on the street. It reminded me of eating street foods in Asia; except this is in Paris. Service was good but could be better if they can explain us what to order on their menu. I liked the Burrata which was creamy with tangy salad and anchovies. It was a great appetizer for us. Charcuterie came with a paper box in to-go or take-out style. It had variety of cured meat slices. Meats had good flavors, textures, tastes from salty to spicy and tangy from lemon slices. It was good to pair with Burrata. Recommend this place in Paris!
