Banh mi chay - vegetarian tofu banh mi
Sydney J.

I ordered ahead for a tofu sandwich (banh mi chay). The sandwich was pretty big for price and contained cucumber and jalapenos. I wish the tofu was more flavorful. I feel the strongest flavor was just the spiciness of the jalapeno, everything else was rather mild in flavor unfortunately. My original estimated pickup was 11:35am but they did update the DoorDash order status to ready for pickup at 11:28 so it seems they are probably usually pretty fast with making food. Overall, the sandwich was alright but would not consider it among the top spots to get a vegetarian banh mi.

Grilled Pork Sandwich
June R.

We were looking for a quick bite near a meeting in Oakland and stumbled upon Pho Sho Dough--honestly, the name alone reeled us in! It's a small takeout spot with a few seats, and even though we came close to closing time, the service was super friendly and quick. We ordered the grilled pork banh mi, the lemongrass beef banh mi, and a shrimp spring roll. The shrimp roll was unique--the shrimp was fully cooked and marinated in a flavorful sauce, not your average fresh roll, and it was delicious. Both banh mis were excellent--the bread was perfectly crisp on the outside and chewy on the inside, and they were generously packed with savory flavorful meat and plenty of pickled veggies. We brought everything back to San Francisco, and even after the drive, it all still tasted amazing. Definitely a great find--highly recommend if you're in the area!

More of a to-go place (unless you want to sit on the curbside patio) is this gem of a Vietnamese place. It's a no frills place for the most basic Vietnamese food - pho, banh mi, and spring rolls/egg rolls. Their egg rolls are one of a kind. They're crunchy, hefty, and generous. We also got their spring roll wrapped egg rolls (aka a typical spring roll with shrimp but imagine the spring roll filled with an egg roll instead of shrimp). We also got the grilled pork vermicelli and it was a generous portion. We will most definitely be back - especially since their service was so fast. We got our food in less than 15 min! You can also call in to shorten the wait time. Easy street parking too!

Outside, cleaver name.

Love this place! The staff is always friendly with quick service. The Pho is yummy. So are the spring rolls. If you're looking for something quick and healthy that won't break the bank this is your place. There's no inside seating which works on a nice day. However, to go works well too.

Jamie W and I have been enjoying visits to the White Horse Inn on random Saturdays for a while now. We had noticed this corner Vietnamese takeout spot but didn't try it until quite recently when I was having a post-cocktail hankering for pho. Luckily Jamie was starving, too, so we ended up sharing three familiar items and having them at the outdoor table next to the big mural (photo: https://yelp.to/X_xPeJEy5i). We started with the $9.95 Fresh Shrimp Spring Rolls, which were generously assembled with lettuce, vermicelli, and plenty of split prawns encased in translucent rice paper accompanied by a sweet peanut dipping sauce (photo: https://yelp.to/_UapbYqWp6). The second item was the $9.95 Grilled Pork Banh Mi which, a soft French roll robustly stuffed with pork, cucumber, shredded carrot and radish, and cilantro (photo: https://yelp.to/xGzS28kOct). That was definitely one of the better banh mis I've had outside of Saigon Sandwich. The $14.95 Roasted Chicken Noodle Soup wasn't technically pho but Hu Tieu Ga Nuong, a South Vietnamese soup with a lighter broth and larger chunks of chicken (photo: https://yelp.to/2ioXM-lGKJ). I don't think I've had this variation before, but it was pretty satisfying. All in all, this was a nice find on Telegraph for hearty Vietnamese eats. FOOD - 4 stars...pretty tasty and quite generous AMBIANCE - 3.5 stars...well, it's really a takeout spot SERVICE - 4 stars...quite efficient and friendly TOTAL - 4 stars...solid Vietnamese fare with regional variations from the norm RELATED - Exploring Oakland? Here's my collection of places I've visited and reviewed: https://bit.ly/2ObVcpQ

Chicken and shrimp spring roll
Luigi P.

This is the kind of place that makes you wonder how everyone else has been doing it wrong the whole time because everything they make is so good. Have ate here several times and frequent both locations, easily the best most authentic bahn mi in the bay, (yes there's patè). Amazing hospitality and clean establishments. I came in with my partner and the owner came out and gave us some warm lemongrass ginger tea while we wait for our food. Strongly recommend!

Beautiful mural right outside
Nataly N.

It might not be easy to tell from the picture I uploaded, but the sandwiches here are massive! I got mine with lemongrass beef. It was very flavorful, the bread was toasted nicely, and it was so filling I had to wrap up half of it to-go. It's not a huge place, but there are a couple of tables right outside on the side street (which is pretty quiet and peaceful). Service was good -- staff made sure to walk around with water refills. I would definitely come back to try another sandwich and their other items!

Tofu Vermicelli
Corrie P.

Man! We missed our pho spot since moving away from the east bay! These flavors are a mix of new school meets old school! Service makes you feel like you're at your Vietnamese family members house! Super friendly and always has a joke to make you smile :) ! I've tried many things on the Menu at both locations. Our favorite besides the pho with the delicious broth is the chicken vermicelli noodle bowls! They fill that thing to the brim! Right now we're on our vegetarian hype right now so didn't get it w/ chicken this time! But trust! It's fire! If you are in the area and looking for a nice hot bowl of pho or just great food, COME HERE!

Fresh Sliced Beef Noodle Soup
Hope M.

We came back for round two and ordered the fried spring rolls! Honestly probably the best egg rolls I've had in a long time -- the perfect amount of crisp and the flavor was delicious!

Fresh brisket & meat ball Pho

Made My Day Go Yo. Decent authentic Pho. I also had a real fresh coconut juice. Definitely is one of your neighborhood good choice. Ps. Sit on red chairs on sidewalk of Berkeley is so summer still. $

With my luck, my car would smell like hello kitty for weeks. Anyhow, I found Mẹ Và Con on yelp, a mother-daughter owned resto that opened in 2024. They serve bánh khọt and have outdoor seating so we headed over. Thankfully, we arrived before the Sunday dinner rush (~5:45 pm) and before the parking lot was filled. Rezzies are accepted (via phone). M E N U Viet Cuisine with some elevated, modern twists (no specific regional specialty). Smaller menu than your typical hole-in-the-wall with 25-30 items including AZN fusion items like shrimp ceviche, kimchi pasta and tom yum pasta. Beer, wine, and soju cocktails available. F O O D * Bò Tái Chanh: Beef Carpaccio w/ Thai basil, fried shallot, house tangerine sauce ($18): https://tinyurl.com/nhcn9kxw - Served at dinner only Fresh, tender slices of beef carpaccio with a sweetness from the tangerine sauce and white onions. I appreciate their twist (tangerine sauce instead of nước chấm) but it was too one note for me...IMO, it needed acid and herbs. Plus, I miss the texture of peanuts. * Bánh Khọt: Viet Mini Pancakes w/ shrimp, coconut milk batter, herbs, pickles ($24): https://tinyurl.com/34nx7sat - Served at dinner only Fav dish of the night, the savory bánh khọt was delicately crispy and slightly custardy in the center with a snappy shrimp drizzled with fragrant scallion oil. It came with romaine, mint, and perilla leaves neatly layered for easy wrapping. The lettuce was a bit soft and soggy tho, and I think they forgot the pickled veggies. Served with a tiny portion of tangy sweet nước chấm. * Bò Lúc Lắc: Shaking Beef w/ soy, garlic, onion, cherry tomato, arugula ($26): https://tinyurl.com/3rkpukct Meltingly tender cubes of filet mignon but light on the seasoning and aromatics so it was bland. Also, was hoping for more smoky wok hei flavor. * Thịt Kho Tàu: Braised Pork Belly w/ hard boiled eggs, rice ($21): https://tinyurl.com/mr2evryw - Includes bowl of rice A traditional dish served during Lunar New Year, it symbolizes prosperity, warmth, and stability. Chunks of pork belly are caramelized in sugar and braised in coconut soda and fish sauce - rich, savory with a good ratio of lean meat to fat (4 pieces). Wish they used more braising liquid when warming up, as some pieces were a bit dry. S E R V I C E Warm, friendly hospitality. Food does take awhile tho...our first dish took about 30 minutes to arrive. A M B I A N C E Casual, no-frills indoor area with about 10-12 tables. Cute covered patio in the parking lot with 5 tables and fairy lights. Overall, Mẹ Và Con is a great place to introduce people that are new to Viet cuisine and/or you're looking for Viet dishes with different twist.

We ordered the tofu bahn mi, tofu, veggies and mushroom vermicelli and Vietnamese pancake with shrimp. They were all amazing. The tofu in the banh mi was stirred fried w/ mushrooms not fried like how I'm used to. So it was a little different but very tasty. My fiancé had the vermicelli bowl which he said was pretty good with all the stirred fried tofu, veggies and mushrooms. What was surprising the most was the Vietnamese pancake. It was so good that I would come back for just this appetizer. It has a crunchy texture on the outside, but the inside was so creamy. Wrap that with a lettuce and dip in the fish sauce and wow! My mouth was happy. Service here is top notch! The server was super attentive and he knew just when we needed more napkins and more water. Would definitely recommend and will be back soon for those pancake!

This is a fast place, table sharing, no room having place. If you're looking for a western style dining, it can become overwhelming. But, just embrace the speed and efficiency of this restaurant. Because once you are seated, you're served immediately to get you on the way. With service, don't expect tier 1 experience, but you'll get your water/tea. Savor it, don't assume they'll come back while you're still eating. Just saying! There's a few things on the menu that are must have.. 1. Chow Jew Ho Fun with soup on the side - the obvious that everyone orders. I like to get soup on the side, and then put about two tablespoons soup back into my noodle and add all the sauces! Then occasionally, sip the soup to wash everything down. 2. Beef Stew Ho Fun - My boyfriend's must have. Flavorful, soft meat, delicious. 3. Fish Cakes - Personally, I don't care for fish cakes, but my boyfriend and his family order it all the time, so of course I'll still eat it. It's still good. I'm just a person who feels I can buy it from the banh mi shops and it taste the same. Lol I don't eat anything else here. This is one of those restaurants where you go and eat what they're known for, not wander off too far away from the menu because the other stuff is just legit filler items. The only problem I have is, it's so expensive now for a small bowl. So it makes me not want to come back, but at the same time, flavors are really good. You just would think with the amount of customers, the business thriving, you could at least keep the portion size the same as before..

They're only open Friday through Sunday from 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., so I finally made the trip out on a Friday and arrived around 9:30 a.m. It was already fairly busy, and it only got more packed while I waited for my order so I would strongly recommend getting there before 9 a.m. or phoning your order in ahead of time. I ordered 4 sandwiches total, and it took somewhere between 30 and 45 minutes for everything to be ready, but both the #2 Special Combo Ham and the #13 Meatball and Egg were absolutely fantastic and well worth the wait. The #2 is how I benchmark a good banh mi, and this place really delivered. The pate was out of this world, the sandwich was piled high with delicious cold cuts, loaded with perfectly pickled veggies and jalapeños, and stuffed into a roll that had the perfect balance of a crisp exterior and pillowy interior. The #13 seemed to be a popular choice as well and for good reason. It had all the same great attributes as the #2, but with the pate and cold cuts replaced by a sweet and savory crumbled meatball paired with a perfectly soft boiled egg. It was every bit as satisfying and delicious and had such a different flavor profile to the #2, which I really appreciated. It is not in the best neighborhood and the hours are painfully tight, especially if you want to avoid a long wait, but the end product is absolutely worth it, in my opinion. And at $6 to $7 per sandwich, the value is still a good value, even if it is a far cry from the $4-6 range that it seemed to hover in for a long time.

The only thing that made the sandwich edible was the bread itself. It was fresh light and airy as I remember it to be. I hope they will focus and maintain quality in the future. I regretted spending $65 there for food I was afraid to feed my family.
