This is the best sandwich place in Orange County. The Crispy Pork and the Ribeye sandwiches are my favorites.

I was recommended this banh mi shop from family, and it was quite delicious. The sandwich size itself lives up to the shop's name, a giant banh mi fit for a King. The loaf of bread was quite large, and it was equally stuffed with meat generously. Compared to other shops the sandwich did not skimp out on the protein side. I got the ribeye beef banh mi, which also included cilantro, pate, mayo, chopped red peppers. Appreciate how the shop actually drizzles the mayo with the meat compared to most prepared sandwiches that just lather spread onto the bread instead. It also included some lettuce and tomato slices, which I did not expect so it was quite interesting. However it did not have much, if any, pickled carrot and daikon which is something I would have expected. The portion is more than enough for the average person. The expected flavor was a bit different from what I expected for the sandwich, compared to other shops. The shop itself is quite large and simple and modernized. I would say there is not much seating despite the large space the shop has, so it would not be very suitable for dine in for large parties. But generally most people will order sandwiches to go anyways, so seating should not really be much of an issue. read more

King Banh Mi - Banh Mi Bo Ribeye (Ribeye Beef) - Sandwiches Near Me - Westminster, California

Got bánh mì thịt nướng $7 since another elderly woman bought 4 so I'm assuming bánh mì thịt nướng is good. Thịt nướng were well marinated and bánh mì was filled with stuffing. Originally was going to purchase bánh mì bò ribeye, bánh mì đặc biệt and bánh mì thịt nướng, but sadly their promo buy 2 get 1 free ended according to staff. When asked what is the price of those bánh mì, staff said prices fluctuate. Didn't know stock prices for bánh mì existed. I prefer baguette, not fat short bread. With the price for a fat short bread, $7-$9 without promo, it's expensive! Don't think I would come back anytime soon. read more

King Banh Mi - Bánh mì thịt nướng $7 - Sandwiches Near Me - Westminster, California

Alrighty... let's start with the good The place is spacious, bright, and new. The "bánh mì", which literally mean bread, are packaged in clear plastic container, displaying a very appetizing sandwich. Ordering was a breeze as the menu laid out in simple easy to order format. This is a counter order type of service, and they were efficient. Now the bad, or let's just say not so excellent... Management will need to have the service staff clean up the tables where guests dine. Even though this is a counter service place, if they set out tables and chairs for patrons, then they should keep them tidy, with the floor properly swept. The restroom needs to be kept clean... as that really reflects on how well the restaurant is maintained. The soap dispenser was empty, which leads you to think how do the staff keep their hands clean? And as for the food, although it is nicely packaged, I find the baguette lacking in flavor. Comparing to other Viet sandwich shops nearby, the taste is below par, sad to say. As for the crispy pork, it has a nice crunch, but the flavor is also average. Overall, it's a decent sandwich shop, with average price, and average taste. No wow factor for me. read more

King Banh Mi definitely surprised us!! We tried their special banh mi and they were SO generous with the pâté - every bite was rich, flavorful, and packed with filling. The bread was toasted fresh so it stayed crispy on the outside while still soft inside~ The crispy pork banh mi was my favorite with the perfect crunch, while the ribeye steak banh mi was super savory and satisfying. I also loved how fresh all the veggies and herbs tasted, it really balanced everything out nicely. And of course, the sugarcane drink on the side made the combo even better. If you're in Garden Grove and craving a good banh mi spot, this one is definitely worth checking out! They are currently having B2G1 deals! read more

Just pulled up to King Banh Mi and it's a full-on flavor invasion Crispy pork? Crazy good. Ribeye? Tender AF. Special combination with Vietnamese ham, head cheese, pâté? Packed like it's got secrets $9 each BUT buy 2 get 1 free... so basically I'm eating like a king on a peasant budget Proof that happiness is just a crunchy baguette away. read more

Really nice staff! Even though it was a quick interaction I felt very welcomed! The space itself is quite large, however there are only about 4 tables so there is not much space to sit if you wanted to eat there. Love that they offer a buy 2 get 1 and that you can mix and match for this deal. With the promo the sandwiches are worth it but at their full price of $9 that is a bit steep compared to other shops. I ordered a crispy pork and a grilled pork. Both sandwiches were extremely light of vegetables which is something I really look forward to, additionally there were no pickled veg which is a flavor you come to expect with a banh mi. The crispy pork was my preferred between the 2, it had a generous amount of meat and a nice crisp although some of the skin was burnt- there was something missing, perhaps it was the pickled veg that it needed to make it a perfect sandwich. The grilled pork was just okay, also a decent amount of mean but there quite a bit of fat in the cuts which was off putting, I don't think I would get that one again. I am glad I tried this spot but with how many banh mi shops there are around I didn't experience anything that would particularly entice me to return. read more

I am a banh mi lover no exaggeration. In the landscape of competitive banh mi. This place decides to stand out not with flavor, but the eating experience and minor tweaks. For starter and I personally think this is genius. The construction goes as follows Bread, Meat, Pate, Mayo , pork floss, Green onion, Veggies, and Red sliced chillis. Arguable the best part of this sandwich is the pate and mayo. So instead of spreading it on the bread where the flavor is absorbed by the bread, they put it in the middle where you can really taste those flavors. In addition adding pork sung and green adds more dept of flavor. One caveat is that the parking is horrendous, very competitive, and it is in the heart of Little Saigon. read more

I gave 5 Stars for the Đặc Biệt - "House Special" it was pretty Bomb it's just what I was Hoping for! But I took off 2 Stars Because of the Heo Quay - "Crispy Pork" Sandwich Had like No crispy skin at all (look the cross section picture No Crispy skin at all) So the "Crispy pork" sandwich had No crispy pork?! I felt they must have taken all the skin off my crispy pork sandwich and put it into someone else's Banh mi? I was disappointed And No buy 2 get 1 Free?! When I saw posting on IG and people here got that promotion/Deal? I asked them and they said it was over? It'll be awhile if I come back. I shouldn't have wonder if my crispy pork sandwich is going to have crispy skin. I hope they do better for their other customers for now on. read more

Banh mi was delicious! My son(super picky dude) loved the heo quay(roasted pork) banh mi. The dac biet(cold cut) is also good. The meat/bread ratio is great. There was a line when I arrived but it moved quickly and the person taking orders was efficiently getting people in and out. I'd definitely come back again! read more

The service was fantastic very helpful and efficient. They even asked whether I was eating right away or later so they could put the veggies on the side, which I really appreciated. Ordering was easy and straightforward. I ordered the Bánh Mì Heo Quay and the bánh mì đặc biệt, and they gave me an extra bánh mì đặc biệt as part of a promotion. The bánh mì tasted good overall, but at $9 each, I feel the price is a bit high if it's not part of a buy two get one deal. I also bought a box of bao buns with salted egg yolk. Unfortunately, those weren't really to my taste, and I didn't enjoy their bao as much. On a positive note, there was plenty of parking available when I visited. read more

It's hard to drive by King Banh Mi and not notice the large sign that offers a buy 2 sandwich, get 1 free deal. I stopped in and ordered the crispy pork, ribeye and grilled pork sandwiches. Service took a little while, but they make the sandwich fresh and toast the bread as on the spot. The result, however, are some pretty good sandwiches. Perhaps what makes this spot stand out from the rest are the veggies they offer with their sandwiches. The veggies are all placed on the side given the sandwiches are toasted to order. The ribeye sandwich came with more western style veggies including tomato, lettuce, green onuons and cilantro. The other sandwiches hand your classic banh mi veggies, but also had dill, and Vietnamese rau ram that you can add if you'd like. If you're looking for a different take on the Vietnamese banh mi, this spot could be worth a try. read more

King Bánh Mì (formerly Vua Bánh Bao) I've been here many times and the bánh mì is always delicious. I usually order the roasted pork bánh mì or the special bánh mì. The roasted pork is crispy and juicy, and the meats are fresh and flavorful perfect for my taste. The shop is clean and spacious, and the staff are friendly. If you don't want to wait, I recommend calling ahead and ordering by phone before pickup. Parking is a bit small, but it's usually easy enough to find a spot.

Manager, please read! Buy 2 get 1 free banh mi banner displayed right outside that got our attention. As I was taking my first few bites of the ribeye banh mi, I bit into something hard that ached a tooth. It was a piece of hard plastic, like a broken piece from a container or something. See attached photos. Hazardous in deed. Careless mistake? Sure but for the beef to have had to be cooked before being placed into the bread, it shouldn't have been possible. So it doesn't even matter if the banh mi was good or not, it wasn't enjoyable after the find. Please have your employees try their best to be careful with quality control. read more

Came for the buy 2 get one free and will be coming back! Thit nguoi/combination meat- 10/10 Classic option the sides were filled with pate and I love the ratio of meat and veggie Bo/ ribeye beef -10/10 the sauce that comes with it is so addicting and Vietnamese tasting and the tomato and chilis added to the veggies is perfect Pork belly/heo quay- 8/10 good but not as exciting at the other ones, kind of skimpy on the crispy pork but still is yummy Also packaging of it is so ideal. Veggies already separated and banh mi ready to be heated up if preferred (not needed for me). Durable plastic box that won't squish it if you're going somewhere. Save the box for other uses too if you want. This is perfect pickup for a later meal! read more

Vua's Banh Mi's made such an impression the first time, we made our return to explore the menu further. We tried crispy pork belly and the fish cake today. I gotta say, it's pretty good and the filling was quite savory just as expected. The bread on the other hand, is completely underrated... airy soft and warm with a nice toasted flaky crunch exterior. Nice job Vua!! We may have to come back for a third visit read more

Stopped into King Banh Mi today for lunch, and experienced their sandwich wizardry firsthand! The service was prompt and friendly. This spot is quite large and clean. I ordered the Dac Biet House Special -Vietnamese ham, head cheese, pate, pickled vegetables, cilantro, and jalapeños. The baguette was fresh, flaky, and soft. The meats were savory and veggies crunchy. It was a tantalizing tango of spice and mouth watering goodness, that danced to a crescendo of flavor satisfaction. Will be back soon to try the other tempting offerings.Enjoy! read more

I was excited to try this place because not only is banh mi one of my favorites, but I heard promising things about this place as well. We had called ahead because we heard that on Fridays from 8am-1pm that they have a buy 1 sandwich, get 1 free deal. The person on the phone confirmed that it was applicable for all sandwiches. However, when we arrived we were told that it was only for the beef sandwich. The guy taking our order wasn't nice when we brought it up because he simply said that no one here would tell us that. That should probably have been our indication to leave. The banh mi bread was good, but that was the only thing that was good. I found the beef to be really dry and overcooked. The pork sandwich was also way too sweet and oily. We specifically asked for the sandwiches to not have any chilli spice, but they put them in all the sandwiches. We asked specifically because we had a family member who couldn't eat it, but we had to pick them out of the sandwiches. The pickled vegetables were okay as it was too sweet and they give so little. The next day, the cilantro and greens were so wilted so they don't last the next day. There's so many good banh mi places in the area that are much cheaper, so recommend going elsewhere instead. read more

Big portions, BIGGER FLAVOR!!! Had the very crispy pork belly and grilled pork. Stopped by King Banh Mi while visiting my mom and it did not disappoint. Big portions, even bigger flavors. Everything was fresh, bold, and packed with that perfect balance you want in a great bánh mì. Definitely a spot worth coming back to. read more

Stopped by for their BOGO banh mi deal today--this was my second visit. Unfortunately, the food just didn't hit the mark again. The flavors were lacking, and overall it wasn't enjoyable. It makes me wonder if the regular BOGO promos are due to low foot traffic. Not sure I'll be back for a third try. The first time they did their bogo deal was a messy, everything was slow, and I waited for 40 min even when I was the 10th person in line. This time got improved by having more staff. The store it self doesn't have AC so when you walk it, you can feel the humidity inside. read more

Bánh mì okay . nice shop. Beautiful picture by the way. Buttttt . Restroom Was soooo dirty. No toilet seat. Need more clean .

Avid Bánh mi lover here, so I know a good banh mi. The bread here is way too thick and dense, making the sandwich unnecessarily hard to eat. It's not like other banh mi spots where you actually look forward to coming back--this feels more like a "last resort" place if you have no other options. They also have a $20 minimum for card payments, which is inconvenient. There's a buy 2 get 1 free deal, but even with that, the quality didn't really make it worth it. I tried the banh mi heo quay, and it was overly sweet, which threw off the balance of flavors. read more

When on a regular day, Monday at 8:10am and there was a short line but a lot of folks are waiting for their orders. The cashier is doesn't seem happy to be here an it reflected on his service. No smile, no greeting just looking at you, waiting do you to tell him what you want. Ordered and waited for my food was #107 and they are on #102, someone did have a big order with 2 big boxes of sandwiches. She was asking the cashier for help to bring to her car and he just coldly responded that there is none, even though there are 4-5 people behind the counter. The guy infront of me helped instead and no gratitude to him from the cashier at all. Also a grandpa asked him to cut the sandwich in 1/2 so him and his grandkid (with him) to enjoy it but he just stared at him, no response and looked the other direction - the grandpa ended up got help with smile from the lady behind the counter. As for the quality, the bread looks good but tasted like old bread. The filling is great with veggies on the side. For $9 with that service, I think I will go elsewhere from now on. Don't get me wrong, the other staffs, the females, who are doing the breads & filling the juices & others front store are nice with smile and acknowledge nods. Been here a lot but if attitudes like that, especially in the morning...it's aok for me to go elsewhere for better attitude & service. read more

The stories spacious but lacks seating area so it doesn't offer an inviting vibe. The people behind the counter looked unhappy and indifferent which turned us off a bit. I ordered a crispy pork bánh mi, fish cake bánh mi, and a grilled pork bánh mi. I also bought a box of steamed buns with quail egg. The steamed buns filling are good and but the dough ratio with the filling was off so steamed buns 8/10 Crispy pork bánh mi was good. 8/10 Chả cá bánh mì 7/10 grilled pork bánh mi 7/10. All in all it's a decent place for bánh mi and buns. read more

Stopped by on Friday 4/17 since I heard they have BOGO Free on Fridays, but, unfortunately, that deal has ended. They only have the B2G1 Free deal for everyday. So, I got the Roast Pork (Heo Quay), Grilled Pork (Thit Nuong), and House Special (Dac Biet) to try. Total is $18 plus tax. I'm quite impressed with the soft-and-fluffy inside and crispy outside bread and all 3 meat filling choices. The roast pork has just the right ratio of meat, fat, and crispy skin, and most importantly very good flavor and quality. Grilled pork comes with slightly sweet pickled morning glory stems (rau muong) which lends a unique taste. House Special reminds me a lot of the flavors from Huynh Hoa sandwiches in Saigon. This may become one of my favorite sandwich shop from now on. The only reason they didn't earn a 5-star rating from me is because the young lady cashier has a very unfriendly attitude. No greetings, no smile, no warm welcome. She acts like customers are there to annoy her. I sure hope management pays attention and train their employees, especially the cashiers who directly interact with customers to be positive and welcoming in order to have repeat business in the highly competitive Banh Mi business in Little Saigon. Another thing that I could not understand is why in such a large store (2-unit wide) in prime Little Saigon real estate area, there is only 1 or 2 tables and some short benches in this store. So much wasted space. read more

Vietnamese baguette sandwiches (banh mi) was tasty. They're currently running a promo, buy 2 get 1 free. The rib eye sandwich was good but beware that it has mayo (personally...yuck!)....

The pork sandwich was really good and tasty. The banh bao (quail egg) tasted yummy!! But so tiny! Clean interior, strangely vast open space in front of the order counter. Not sure if they even have plans for this big open space. read more

No surprise the place offers a buy 2, get 1 free deal when there were barely any customers. Each bánh mì is $9, and even with the promotion, the total came out to about $19.60 with tax. That means the "deal" is really just $6-something per short bánh mì, not exactly impressive. Presentation: 10/10 This is what earned them the two stars. The sandwiches look great. Quality: 1/10 Taste-wise, it's terrible. The bread crumbles instantly and has no flavor. The filling is drenched in mayo, and the roast pork... where is the skin? It looks like someone else ate it before it went into my sandwich. (See picture below.) Overall: Never coming back. read more

I came early in the morning hoping to place an order for bánh mì. I tried calling ahead, but no one answered the phone, so I decided to come in person. After placing my order, I had to wait about 30 minutes just to receive it, which was quite disappointing. What made the experience worse was the staff's attitude. When I politely asked if they could add vegetables inside my bánh mì, I was told they were too busy to do it. That's understandable during a rush, but there was no apology or effort to accommodate the request. Instead, the response felt dismissive and unfriendly. I understand that mornings can be busy, but a little courtesy and better communication would make a big difference. Unfortunately, this experience left me quite disappointed. read more
