    We stopped by for a quick lunch while in the neighborhood. I've had my fair share of Vietnamese sandwiches and have been on the hunt for the next best place. To start, the location has fairly easy metered parking, the shop was very clean but small and the woman/owner? was very sweet. When we got there shortly before 1pm, it was very busy and with only 2 chairs, 1 table and a bench to sit at. We ordered 2 #1- special combinations ($8.50/each) and an order of spring rolls ($6.99). The special sandwiches are cold meat with pate and all the fixings. For the price and size of the sandwich, it was worth it. The jalapeños in there were definitely giving it a kick, and the pickled veggies and cucumbers were definitely fresh. The bread was great, crunchy but not to a point where the bread was falling apart as you were eating it. The owner graciously offered us cups of water too since we were eating in, but we had our bottles of bottle so we declined. They also sell sodas and milk tea if that sparks your interests. The shrimp spring rolls were good, not great. It was fresh but nothing crazy special about them. We would probably skip out of those next time. The only issue we had was the register wasn't working. It kept glitching and at one point we paid but then it said an amount was still due. Not really the owner's fault, but the system itself. Overall, quick eats, yummy sandwiches, and nice service. PS if you are looking for a good deal, they have a special combo you can get, it's 1 sandwich and a drink for $11.99! I'll definitely be back!

    Boba milk tea - they ran out of boba!

    For a quick banh mi sandwich fix, try Phi Long. Get a sandwich for around $9 or a sandwich and boba drink of your choice for $12. As far as ambiance goes, it's really a take out joint, so enjoy your meal at a nearby park or the Richmond library. The grilled pork was pretty tasty, and upon reading other reviews on Yelp, I asked for extra pickled veggies and the owner happily obliged. I love that the bread was perfectly crispy yet did not give me roof takers. I'll be back to try the combo sandwich. For the milk tea choices, I enjoyed the brown sugar boba and Thai boba, which offers real milk vs the powdered kind. Gave it 4 stars because they ran out of boba at lunchtime.

    Combination banh mi and coffee
    Shelley T.

    Phi Long is a decent option for banh mi in the Richmond. My first visit was around when they first opened and initially, I was not super impressed. However on my recent visit, it seems like the sandwiches have gotten a little bigger and tastes pretty good. The combination banh mi has 3 types of thinly sliced meat and pate. The bread tastes fresh and I appreciate that the meat is thinly sliced. Overall, it's pretty solid but I think the pate is a tad bit salty, and there could be more pickled vegetables to balance it out. The coffee is super bitter for me and is made with condensed milk and milk. The meal combi is now $11.99 for a sandwich and drink. When they first opened, the deal was $10.88 but the sandwich was smaller and now the sandwich is a better size. I would rather pay a little more for a bigger sandwich. Laat time I got a milk tea that might've been jasmine, and thought it was a little too sweet. Not sure if that has changed since.

    Combo deal going on
    Sherman L.

    I'm still standing by my old 5* review but for the sake of visibility, I will give a low review for this one - as the prices are pretty affordable given the area and it's a small family owned business. Great to see they're expanding their menu here and there. I just want the owners to see this review. Only reason I'm writing my review is in hope the workers or owner here sees it. I dropped by to order some lunch and right before I ordered, one of the workers handed money change to the customer in front of me with the gloves she used to make the customer's spring rolls in. After touching money, she used the same pair of gloves to cut the bread for my bahn mi. I try not to make it a big deal but it's kind of disgusting. Makes me wonder what else the gloves were used for prior to me and the other customer. Food should not be handled after touching money!

    Delicious banh mi sandwich from this small takeout shop. We ordered 3 for takeout and arrived late to pick it up. The sweet owner offered to heat it up. We declined as the sandwiches were still warm. I ordered beef and hubby ordered pork. Sandwiches were sizable and had lots of meat with veggies on french loaves. It hit the spot! Sweet owner also gave us water when we chose to eat in at the solo table available. Next time I plan to order the sandwich with a drink as it's just 3 dollars more.

    Combo with extra mayo
    Sophia T.

    Their sandwiches instantly bring me back to the old-school Vietnamese coffee joints in the Tenderloin from back in the day (IYKYK). Those spots have all disappeared with the last one being sing sing, so stumbling upon Phi Long feels like finding a hidden gem. I've been coming back every other morning since! The bread-to-filling ratio is perrrrfect -- not oversized, not overstuffed, just authentic and balanced with the right combination of vietnamese ham's. (I get it with extra mayo and ooooOooF) And the biggest surprise? EVER since coming back from Hà Nội, I've been searching all over SF for a proper salted coffee. Couldn't find it anywhere--until here. I was a bit hesitant when ordering but to my surprise it was soooo goooood. They make it strong, bold, and so, so good. OBSESSED

    Bánh Tét: Sticky Rice Cake w/ pork belly + mung beans - Sliced and pan-fried
    Cherylynn N.

    My toxic trait is going for lunch #2 when lunch #1 is terrible. This was a blessing in disguise because I would have slept on Phi Long Sandwich. This little neighborhood gem is like a slice of E San Jo in the city. Opening in April 2024, they have specials like Canh Khổ Qua (bitter melon soup), Bánh Tét (sticky rice cake w/ pork belly + mung beans) and Chân Gà Sốt Thái (chicken feet w/ thai sauce) that you won't even find in the TL. It's mainly a takeout only spot as there's only one table for dine-in. M E N U A variety of Bánh Mì ($8.50 - $8.99). Make it a combo with a drink for $10.99. This includes boba milk tea and cà phê sữa đá (Viet iced coffee) - a great deal! They also have specials which I mentioned along with Bò Kho (Viet beef stew), Phở Ga (Chicken Soup), Com Sườn Nướng (Grilled Pork Chop Rice) and more. Some items are packed as takeout in the fridge and have to be warmed up. I'm not sure if they have the same specials all the time so highly recommend calling ahead. Cc's accepted. F O O D * #1 Bánh Mì Dặc Biệt w/ chả (fancy pork), giò thủ (headcheese), pâté, mayo, veggies | $8.50: https://tinyurl.com/36w7v2cu - Request extra pâté IMO, this rivals the ones in TL and E SJ - light, crackly soft baguette generously filled with rich pâté, layers of smooth fancy pork and gelatinous headcheese, and veggies (pickled + fresh cucumber + jalapeño). Flavorful and deliciously satisfying. It would be 5 stars if they put more pickled veggies to cut through the savory richness *and* if they used Viet yolk-rich mayo or butter cut mayo (they use American mayo). * Bánh Tét: Sticky Rice Cake w/ pork belly + mung beans | $15: https://tinyurl.com/4r5bcmvr - Special for Tết, Lunar New Year The Viet cousin of Chinese zongzi/joong, the sticky rice cake is filled with mung beans and pork belly. This rendition was tasty but wasn't rolled tight enough so it unraveled while cutting into. Also, it could use a bigger/thicker cut of pork belly for a better protein-to-rice ratio (pork belly was the width of a dime). I like slicing and pan-frying it until the exterior is golden brown and crunchy. I did find a strand of hair when unwrapping the roll (I tripled check to make sure it wasn't from the banana leaf) but it was probably a one off. S E R V I C E Friendly. A M B I A N C E Bare bones with one table for seating. P A R K I N G Easily found metered parking in front during weekday lunchtime. Overall, Phi Long is an under the radar gem in Inner Richmond. Would def return for their bánh mì and chân gà sốt thái (when they have it).

    Egg rolls, beef sandwich and vietnamese ice coffee
    Kim T.

    The sandwich was delicious. They give you a good amount of meat. Egg rolls are decent but need to put more cabbage. The vietnamese coffee is strong and has good flavor. If you're in neighborhood, give them a try. The 2 ladies who work there are very sweet.

    I've had my fair share of banh mis growing up. My favorite used to be the chicken banh mi from Cam Huong all the way in Oakland Chinatown before they changed ownership (RIP.) I've been on the hunt for a replacement sandwich since then. Like many others have posted about, the giant sign outside the shop, displaying a sandwich + drink combo meal for $11.99, was the first thing I saw and was what drew me in. I ordered a chicken banh mi and a boba with high hopes that I'd finally have a contender, but I was disappointed. The French bread on the banh mi was rubbery and didn't have that satisfying crunch to it. The chicken tasted kind of old, too. I'm not sure if it's because I went in the afternoon, but their ingredients didn't taste very fresh at that time of the day? The boba was also mediocre at best; it was a little too sweet for my liking. I wouldn't be paying $4.99 for it outside of this combo meal for sure. The lady behind the counter took my order AND prepared it, so props to her for being a one woman show! I also see that this shop is listed on DoorDash, too, so it's extra impressive that she's able to keep up with online and in-person orders all by herself. All in all, I don't think I'll be back to try this place again. Looks like I'll still be on the hunt for a good chicken banh mi in the Bay Area!

    Great service and authentic Vietnamese food. The lady behind the counter is a multi-tasker and can do it all. Sandwiches are decent. Coffee can be made extra strong, like gasoline oil strong. I would love to come back to try the other menu items.

    special combo/ banh mi dac biet
    Bonnie Y.

    Nice, no frills vietnamese sandwich shop. I got the combo sandwich and chicken sandwich. The baguette didn't scratch the roof of your mouth like other places. The lady behind the counter was very polite and very quick for someone making the sandwiches and manning the counter. Cash always preferred, but I paid for credit card.

    Ada H.

    Let me just start this review by stating the this is one woman team and she's super sweet and very informative. $10.99 for a Banh mi and drink is an unbeatable deal indeed. Meatball sandwich- (3/5) the bread was soft and fluffy and held everything together really well. The meat to bread ratio was below standard and was a bit disappointing, but for $7.99 a Banh mi, can't really complain. The meatball itself was a bit on the saltier side but I really enjoyed the pickled vegetables. Beef Banh mi- (3/5) the beef was a bit dry but it wasn't too bad. Nothing really stood out for me flavor wise. Matcha milk tea- (2/5) the matcha flavor was too subtle for my liking. I'm giving this place an overall 3.2 stars.

    Combo
    Jessica W.

    This family-owned spot offers just one table for in house seating, perfect for to go orders. Pretty self explanatory, you walk up to view the menu to order. Service is standard, it's not slow. I appreciate their Special Combo, which includes a sandwich and drink for $11.99, such a great deal! I went with my usual order: a combination sandwich and Vietnamese iced coffee. The food overall is solid, the bread is perfectly toasted. PRO TIP: eat the sandwich upside down to avoid scratching the roof of your mouth, thank me later. Though I wish the egg mayo had more of a classic vietnamese eggy flavor rather than tasting like American mayo. Their pate have really nice balance and doesn't taste too "livery" lol. I love that the jalapeños pack a real spicy punch! The Vietnamese iced coffee is on the stronger side due to less condensed milk, which works perfectly for me.

I actually discovered Que Viet through DoorDash and had everything delivered. I ordered the Deep-Fried Imperial Rolls (Cha Gio), Grilled Chicken & Chicken Imperial Roll Garlic Noodles (Mi Top Ga Nuong Cha Gio Ga), Grilled Pork Sausage Rolls (Nem Cuon), Vietnamese Shrimp Mini Crepes (Banh Xeo Tom), and the Grilled Pork Sausage & Sliced Pork Woven Vermicelli (Banh Hoi Nem & Thit Nuong). Yes... I spent almost **$100 for two people**. Looking back at the receipt, I had to ask myself, *"Is this place expensive, or am I just fat?"* Honestly... probably a little of both. Either way, it was one of the best $100 I've ever spent. If it's your first time ordering from Que Viet, do yourself a favor and get the **garlic noodles**. I know garlic noodles are everywhere these days, but these completely changed my expectations. They were perfectly cooked with an incredible bounce, packed with rich garlicky flavor, and the portion size was generous enough for leftovers (if you have the self-control). I also tried the **Banh Hoi Nem & Thit Nuong** for the first time, and it did not disappoint. One heads-up, though: it's generously topped with crushed peanuts. My friend has a peanut allergy, so thankfully we caught it before digging in. If you have any nut allergies, be sure to mention it when ordering. Every single dish arrived fresh, flavorful, and tasted like it had just come out of the kitchen despite being delivered. That's not something you can say about many places. If you ever find yourself in the city, you **need** to make a stop at Que Viet. This place has been living rent-free in my head ever since, and I already know I'll be back the next chance I get.

Some dishes were better prepared than others, but overall, the food was solid across the board. If you enjoy making your own spring rolls, you'll love the grilled pork skewers. The pork is super tender and has such a incredible flavor profile of lemongrass, garlic, fish sauce, and more. Rolled up with the woven vermicelli noodles and fried wonton crisps in a rice paper, you get a wonderful combination of texture in a single bite. The other crowd favorite of the night was the bánh xèo -- the stuffed rice crepe. The bánh xèo here is by far the best one that I've ever had, even surpassing ones I had in Vietnam. The outside was insanely crispy and and was surprisingly not particularly oily, while the inside was loaded with fillings. Two other dishes that were well received by the group was the betel leaf wrapped grilled beef and the sugar cane shrimp. The beef had a very similar flavor profile as the pork, but the texture was a lot more lean. The shrimp had a bouncy, yet firm texture to it, and was very well-seasoned. My only qualm with the shrimp dish is that the sugarcane did not actually have any sweetness to it. There's fish sauce on the table along with a shrimp paste sauce, but to be honest, every dish we had was so flavorful on its own, the sauces aren't even needed. The only dish that we ordered that fell short was the grilled river shrimp. The presentation of the shrimp is impressive and very photogenic, but the flavor was lacking and the cook was inconsistent. Some people had shrimp that was undercooked -- borderline raw, and on the other end of the spectrum, others had shrimp that was so overcooked, that it was very difficult to remove the shrimp from the shell without completely tearing the meat. That said, everything else we ordered was well-prepared, and very tasty. Service was good throughout the meal, and I would definitely come back again for a meal with a large group. 4.5 experience rounding up to a 5.

I don't have to clean up or cook all those yummy proteins to go in our spring rolls + you get to eat them super fresh! I took my partner here one time and he mentioned the amount of veggies he ate here was top notch (he doesn't usually eat veggies). The staff is friendly and if you don't know how to roll, they will make sure to walk you through it. Don't be afraid and come to Anh Hong!

    Still one of my favorite high-end Vietnamese restaurants. This is not the place to go if you're…read morelooking for that hangover bowl of pho. This is meant to scintillate your taste buds. Restaurant is very clean, and service is quick (almost too quick where the food started coming all at once and the drinks were nowhere to be found). - Banh Cuon - 10/10 one of my go-to dishes - Gao Roll Sampler - easy to share with a group, would skip next time - Banh Khot - first time getting it last time and it was excellent. would get again - Shaking Beef - beef is super tender. definitely get this over the garlic noodles + beef - Vermicelli Bowl - classic, would skip for one of their other dishes - Bun Cha - would choose this over the vermicelli bowl - Pho - I didn't get it last time I was there, but the pho broth is very rich and delicious. it's hard to share, but split amongst 2-3 people, you can make it work

    Following an urban hike with some friends, we decided to end our day with an early dinner at Gao…read more We were ravenous after our 2+ hour hike, and it turns out that visiting Gao right when it opens for dinner was the winning move. We were among the first diners at 5 PM, but by the time we left an hour later, the restaurant was lively with all of tables on both floors filled. The menu was quite extensive, and I was having some internet connectivity issues with the digital menu, so I went along with what my friends were doing and ordered the soft shell crab banh canh. Our table also shared an order of the bahn khot as an appetizer. The food was brought out surprisingly quickly, and this was one of those cases where my eyes were bigger than my stomach. The banh canh was basically a feast in a noodle soup, which included tempura softshell crab, pork belly, another large piece pork, quail egg, carrots, and tapioca noodles. The broth was rich and spicy, and the fried shallot topping further elevated the flavor. While I usually wouldn't eat that much meat in a single meal, I loved how each component introduced a unique texture and flavor to the soup. The softshell crab was decadent, and I thought it was cool to serve it tempura-style. While I barely made a dent in my bowl of noodles, I took the rest home to enjoy for dinner the next day.
