I was craving a tofu fresh roll and Thai restaurants were all closed as it was around 10am. I found this gem and decided to check it out. For $8 I got 3 tofu fresh rolls that came with a giant peanut sauce. It was so fresh and delicious and not to mention affordable! Definitely will come back read more

The baguette is on point, loaded with grilled pork and fresh veggies, served in a sparkling clean environment. Service is friendly, and there are a myriad of other options such as coffee and pastries. The egg rolls were dang delicious too. Packed with meat and flavor. Add a couple to your order! read more

EXCELLENT Banh Mi sandwiches! Heard they had this new location in San Marcos, and stopped by the over day... Place was extremely clean, staff was nice, friendly and smiles.. I ordered my sandwich (house special) and it was ready in 2 minutes.... The sandwich is $7.95, but has a lot in it...I almost just ate half, but it was so good I gobbled it all up... ;) Highly Recommend! read more

Arguably the best Bohn me I've ever had! The bread was crispy, but not impossible to bite down on and there were peppered grilled onions inside it was absolutely delicious. I also ordered the tofu spring rolls as recommended by another yelper which was great, but the peanut sauce was OK. I'm giving four stars because the woman who took my order wasn't terribly friendly and judge me when I asked if they had shrimp on me since I saw that they have shrimp spring rolls on the table right when you walk in. read more

Paris Sandwiches - Tofu bahn mi - Vietnamese Near Me - San Marcos, California

I stopped by Paris Sandwiches because I was thirsty and wanted a drink. While there, I noticed they sold baked cassava cake, so I decided to buy a piece as well. The sugarcane juice was decent. The flavor suggested it was made from frozen sugarcane rather than fresh-pressed stalks; it lacked a strong flavor profile but was still very refreshing. The baked cassava cake was just okay; it wasn't as soft or chewy as I had expected. I also tried one of their breads ,it tasted good but wasn't anything particularly special. Since it is a new shop, everything was very clean, bright, and spacious. The staff were friendly, polite, and welcoming. There was plenty of parking, making it easy to find a spot. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, and I would happily visit again if I were back in the area. read more

So glad we have a new banh mi spot in San Marcos. This place is affordable and the sandwiches are just what you're craving. The bread was light but crispy, not hard on the inside. Veggies were fresh and I ordered my grilled pork banh mi without pate. My partner got the crispy pork belly and enjoyed. Will definitely come back to try the other sandwiches, ready to go items and drinks! Love that the fridge is also stocked with some sweets. read more

This is basically a take-away shop. They have very limited seating, so be aware. We ordered at the counter, and our sandwiches were out quickly, so the wait time is minimal. The hubby and I tried them for lunch today. I ordered the grilled chicken banh mi and the hubby got the meatball banh mi. They were just ok. The bread was nice and crispy, my chicken was very flavorful but the pickled veggies on the sandwich had no real personality. When I order banh mi I expect the veggie to be fairly spicy. And there was zero zest in their pickled veggies. I'm not sure I need to return for another sandwich. read more

Me and my friends ordered so many and the flavor were legit! We will be back and customer service was awesome . The place is clean and very nice. read more

OMG! This place is DANGEROUS! It's going to get me so fat because it's the closest to authentic Vietnamese sandwiches we're gonna get here in SM. I LOVE that they opened, we much much needed this in our thriving San Marcos community. Can you tell that I love this for us?! We came several times since their grand opening week. We've gotten their Viet coffee, their crispy pork sandwich (add egg for breakfast), banh bao, banh hoi heo quay (woven noodles with crispy pork), nem chua and their premade Vietnamese pickles. Nothing was a disappointment. Their sandwich's are stuffed with meats too. We still need to try their dac biet and their thit nuong. You can also get a loaf of cha lu too! Which is freshly made. Their breads are also freshly made there and it doesn't cut the roof of your mouth. LOVE IT. We've been waiting for an authentic banh mi place since moving to San Marcos 2.5 years ago. We used to go to Banh Mi San Marcos but they so stingy with meat, it's not even funny. Thank you for opening and we hope that it stays for good. We'll give them plenty of business so they can stay!!! read more

Love love love this place! It's nice to have a place so close to home that has woven noodles, vermicelli bowls, and banh mi at an affordable price. I also love these little chicken puff pastry things they have that are a cheap snack! I'm proud (and slightly embarrassed) to say I went 4 times in one week to try a bunch of stuff, and to satisfy my cravings for my usual banh mi order. My go to is the pork belly woven rice special, or the cha lua banh mi. My husband loves their spring rolls they have out, and they also have a variety of other grab and go stuff. It's also cool that they sell the mayo and pickled veggies you find inside a typical banh mi. Oh, and they have a variety of fresh croissants (ham and cheese, cream cheese, chocolate, etc.). Service is super quick and friendly, and the place is nice and clean! Disclaimer, the printed menu I took home has different numbers than the menu in the store, so just be careful ordering by number! read more

Although it is a small place in a strip mall- this was a gem of a find. They have some indoor seating, clean and typical. But the service is anything but typical. The cashier was super friendly and the food came out quickly. Now on to the food- Vietnamese coffee- 10/10- delicious and strong. The chicken puff pastry was delicious too and a perfect snack. The crispy pork belly sandwich was delicious too and super filling- 1/2 sandwich was enough for me. Great find and one that would be in our regular rotation if it was closer to us. read more

My cousin took us here, and I have to say, the sandwiches were really good. They were super crusty, which I actually prefer less crusty in a banh mi, but the bread was still tasty. The crumbs were everywhere, and my cousin mentioned that the top of her mouth was cut from the bread, so my tip is to press down on the bread before taking a bite. It was quite warm inside, and I didn't say anything until we left, but my cousins all agreed it was a bit too hot. Still, it's a great spot for banh mi and egg rolls. read more

This was our first time visiting this little gem. We had a little bit of everything, including two different banh mi sandwiches as well as shrimp spring rolls and pickled daikon/carrots. Staff were super friendly. We ordered to go but next time we'll definitely eat in and try one of their vermicelli or rice dishes. The restaurant is light and bright and very welcoming. unfortunately, We got there too late to try some of their pastries which were sold out, giving us yet another reason to return. Everything was delicious by the way the sandwiches were packed full of yummy ingredients and the baguette bread was crispy and fresh. read more

Needed to find the closest bánh mì spot for a quick fix, and this place checked the box. We ordered the #2 Grilled Pork and #8 Grilled Beef. Both were delicious, though I felt the bread could have been a bit better compared to other spots I've tried in the Clairemont, Convoy, and Kearny Mesa area. I'd probably give the food 4 stars on its own, but the prices add an extra star for value. It's hard to find a meal or fast food under $10 these days, and most of the bánh mì here are under that. If you're craving a bánh mì, this is a solid choice. It's good, not the best I've had, but it's tasty, affordable, and definitely worth a visit. I'd come back. read more

I'm so excited that this Vietnamese spot opened in San Marcos! As much as I love a good bánh mì, I'm even more excited about the assortment of grab-and-go items they offer. It's not often you find specialties like bánh ít trần, bánh bèo, bánh giò, and bánh pâté sô all in one place. I didn't grow up eating Vietnamese food, so it's been really fun discovering dishes beyond the more mainstream bánh mì and phở. Having these traditional grab-and-go options makes it easy to try something new each visit. Please don't ever get rid of the grab-and-go selection--that's honestly my main reason for coming here! I can't wait to keep exploring more of the menu. read more

First time eating here. Friendly staff, nice cozy interior eating area, and love the small items you can purchase aside from the regular menu. We ordered the Grilled Chicken Banh Mi and the Tofu Banh Mi. Very very delicious! Also ordered the tofu spring rolls, which they make fresh to order. We found our local Banh mi spot!! read more

Went for lunch on Sunday after reading the good reviews. The place was busy and there are very few seats inside. Ordering was easy and the wait was not long. I ordered tge grilled chicken banana mi and hubby had the pork bahn mi. Both were delicious. The bread! Only bad thing i could say is when there is an order up they ring this horrif bell, had to go outside. Lo c e tge place but get rid of the bell please read more

Great new banh mi place! They have pastries, drinks, desserts, spring rolls, and other things. Great price, everything is pretty affordable. Service is good.

This has been our go-to banh mi spot. We like how quick and friendly the service is. The baguette is crunchy and soft. The inside is stuffed with toppings. However, they don't add Pate. I've noticed my sandwiches only have mayo. read more

It's me again...ur picky ass Asian friend who moved to the suburbs. TLDR: ONE OF THE BEST bánh mì places in SD and one of the very few Viet places that serve equally delicious CHICKEN egg rolls and patê sô (instead of the usual pork). They also have party trays and delicious frozen versions that you can grab! Had their bánh hoỉ w/heo quay (roasted pork w/rice noodles) and the roasted pork (aka lechon) was super crispy and flavorful. Definitely recommended! When I heard a new bánh mì place opened up in SM, I didn't have high hopes but always have to at least try. So I went...saw that it was Paris Sandwiches and immediately thought there was NO WAY that my fave spot in Mira Mesa just opened up down the street from me. BUT as soon as I stepped inside and saw the beautiful smile of one of my fave people working at the register, I immediately realized it was indeed THE Paris Sandwiches and got dumb EXCITED! Everyone probably thought I was crazy bc my voice must've went up 3 octaves telling the cashier how happy I was ...seeing her familiar face and realizing I didn't have to drive to Mira Mesa for the closest Viet cafe really made my day! We got our usual sandwiches, some bánh giày (fried fish cake b/t mochi...my daughter's fave), chicken eggrolls, chicken pate chaud, and the special roasted pork (amazing btw) - all yummy! The only thing they don't have is boba which I think is bc there's already a boba spot in the same shopping center. They do still have fresh sugar cane and Viet coffee though! Literally everything here is really good and they're set up like the Viet places I grew up with...quick grab and go foods, bao and other delectables, frozen apps to make at home to go, they even have nem bọ (Viet cured beef that went viral recently for its deliciousness) in the refrigerated section if you've been wanting to try it. To boot, always friendly faces and quick service! Trust me guys...just go! read more

Paris Sandwiches offers a variety of foods, drinks, and desserts. They have some grab n go items that make a quick lunch easy, as well as some made to order bahn mi. I enjoyed everything I ordered -- chicken bahn mi, egg rolls, spring rolls, and purple rice yogurt. There were a couple pieces of chicken with gristle in the sandwich, and some shrimp shell left on the spring rolls but I just took it out of the food. Other than that, you can't beat the price and quality. I'll definitely be back! read more

I'm so glad North County finally has a Banh Mi shop that doesn't insult their customers with mediocre food. I did a double-take driving by on San Marcos Blvd and I'm so glad I stopped in. Banh mi-fresh, crispy baguette, flavorful ingredients, PLUS all the extras you would normally expect from a real Banh Mi shop! Eggrolls, spring rolls, banh bao's, and super fresh & warm cha lua's ready to take away. So happy to have this spot here so I don't have to drive all the way to OC for a legit fix. read more

Best Banh Mi in San Marcos and I'm so glad there's a really good one around. Got the #1 Special and added an egg to it. I got this sandwich twice in one week. It was that good! I also got egg rolls each time I got the sandwich, they do not disappoint! They stay crispy too! Staff were nice and service was quick! Highly recommend this place read more

After picking my dad up at the Senior Center, we came to Paris Sandwiches for lunch. We've had many a Bahn Mi in OC but this location, sadly, is not one of our favorites. Somehow, the pork lacks flavor, as well as the egg roll that came with the Bun Ga Nuong (vermicelli bowl). The pork is sliced up in long pieces at Paris, yet I've had other pork where it's smaller and well-coated with seasoning and sauces. When I ordered I told the woman we were eating at their tables. I picked up our order at the counter of one Bahn Mi, vermicelli and two iced coffees, I told the guy before packing that we were eating at their tables, but he continued to put everything in plastic bags. If you ever have a vermicelli order, it's better to have it in a bowl or a compartment that's not divided because it's hard to toss the entree's contents to get the best flavors in one bite. I gave this place a try but won't be returning. Being generous with three stars. read more

Food and service were great. Price reasonable. Large space for eating. And bakery to choose from..

I wanted to eat everything but I'm but 1 person. The gal greeted me right as I walked in and was patient while I was trying to make my selection. Small place with great offerings. My sandwich was made fresh quickly. The bread was perfectly crispy and chewy... the cold cuts were vibrant and cold. Even the pickled carrots/daikons were crunchy. Love LOVE... btw... the crispy roasted pork is a must. Perfect crunch on the skin and tantalizing moisture on the meat. Thanks for making my day. read more

Paris Sandwiches - Banh mi dac biet, roasted pork - Vietnamese Near Me - San Marcos, California

I was sooooo excited when I saw that this spot was opening up so close to where I live. San Marcos and North County in general does not have a lot of great options when it comes to getting a banh mi to go. The establishment is nice and clean, their menu is still in the works because of them being so new but they've got so many options already available. Sandwiches, egg rolls, pastries, a to-go fridge and so much more. The lady taking my order was very welcoming. I ordered two sandwiches, some egg rolls, and of course a coffee. The sandwiches are a good value, and a good size. I got a chicken and a beef. They were both delicious, however my chicken sandwich had a lot of mayo and it was a bit overpowering which is my only complaint. Egg rolls were crispy and filling. The coffee did what it needed to do... I couldn't sleep until 3 am lol. All in all, this is a solid addition to our food scene in San Marcos! I will definitely be a frequent flier. read more

Very clean and tidy shop with the best pork sandwiches ever! Wow!! friendly service and very fast.

I'm so excited that San Marcos finally has a legit bánh mì spot. We've really been lacking a good Vietnamese bánh mì shop in north county, and this place is exactly what I've been hoping for. I grew up in Little Saigon in OC, so I definitely don't take bánh mì lightly. This is the first place around here where I can honestly say I'd bring my picky Vietnamese father without being worried he'd be disappointed... and that's saying a lot. I ordered a #2 Grilled pork! The bread is perfectly crispy, the ratio to bread, pickled carrots, butter and pork are text book. I also grabbed the Bánh Bèo in the pre packed section and wow the flour cakes are soo pillowy and perfect! You can tell they care about the food and aren't cutting corners on quality. Super clean and modern inside, everyone was so friendly and welcoming. I'm so happy I can expose my son to his culture with real Vietnamese food in our own neighborhood! I never leave reviews and I felt inclined! I'm really rooting for this place and can't wait to come back. read more

Really enjoyed my meal at Paris Sandwiches. I ordered the grilled pork banh mi and it was excellent -- the pork was flavorful and perfectly cooked, the bread was fresh and crispy, and all of the toppings came together really well. Everything tasted fresh and balanced without feeling too heavy. The staff was friendly, service was quick, and the restaurant had a clean, welcoming atmosphere. One of the best little surprises was finding out you can order a fresh loaf of their bread for only $2.50 -- definitely worth it because the bread was amazing. I'll definitely be coming back! read more
