Bread was fresh and warm - crunchy on the outside but soft inside. Perfect baguette! Good portion of meat and fresh veggies but didn't taste any of the jalapeño. I like that you can personalize your bahn mi (no mayo, veggies on the side, not toasted, cut in half, etc.), especially getting it cut in half. My only wish was that there was more pate as I could barely see or taste it. Solid bahn mi for the taste, quality, and price.

And those buns were so warm and toasty with just the right crunch. They also have a BOGO offer that makes this an easy win for the wallet. Can't wait to come back!

There's something about the strong coffee flavour combined with the sweetness of the condensed milk that I love so much. It really wakes you up too! After having just 1, I feel invincible (haha).

I loved the refreshing flavour and the seeds were fun to eat, kind of like mini pearls (not as chewy though). I also had pho and a banh mih but I was so hungry that I forgot to take a picture, woops! I just have to come back again and take the photos when I come back next time right? Sounds good!

What we received were hot, juicy and crispy sandwiches that were sliced in half for us since we decided to dine in. All the flavours we expected were there however we noticed that the sandwich size had gotten smaller since the last time we were here a few months ago. The fillings to bun ratio were balanced but there seemed to be less room for the pickled veg and cilantro toppings. This would also mean that the fillings were reduced to match the bun size too. No what I was expecting. My spring roll was fresh, hot and meaty. Better than expected. My sandwich combo was $14.50 while my hubs sandwich was $11 which is not bad but was better in the past. Value verdict: 4/5 because they reduced the size of their sandwiches and the quantity of fillings. Service at the order counter was helpful and prompt delivery of the sandwiches to our table was most appreciated. They have a large selection of canned cold drinks from a self serve cooler as well offering traditional Vietnamese coffee, fruit flavoured teas and lemonade drinks. One of the reasons we chose to dine in in this tiny shop was for their air conditioning and to eat our sandwiches hot and fresh. Very limited number of tables (2) and a window counter to seat 3-4 diners. They do offer a frequent sandwich buyer feature. Cash and all cards accepted. No washroom. Limited wheelchair accessibility due to the size of the shop and tables within.

It's kind of out in a neighborhood all by itself, so nothing else to draw customers. I have a feeling it's the neighborhood sandwich shop. Hence, there are not a lot of reviews.

The Vietnamese coffee is strong as hell, I can only drink half or I'm buzzed all day! They have so many options to pick from which is awesome. The service is always super fast and friendly too. I just wish the space was abit bigger to sit as it's always packed and often hard to find a table. All in all, solid solid joint!

Anyways, we got the grilled pork banh mi and their crackling pork banh mi. Their banh mi are around $10 each. The size is around 8 inches. Their grilled pork is good compared to other places I have tried. It has a slight sweetness and bbq flavour and the pork is not dry. At some other banh mi places, the grilled pork tasted like pan fry. I have a bias on roast pork. I love the crispy pork skin. I have seen people getting crispy pork banh mi on travel YouTube video. I took the chance when I finally get to try it first hand. It's didn't disappoint for sure. The roast pork isn't salty and I believe there is a layer of hoysin sauce. Definitely worth coming back even though they are going to increase the price on April 1. Be aware that this place charges a fee if you pay by credit card.
