TL;DR/The Short Version: Popular place selling banh mi and…read moreother Vietnamese food, as well as bubble tea. Banh mi and bubble tea were good. The Long Version: My husband and I stopped here for lunch on our most recent trip to Laval. They have a lunch combo for $12.50 for the banh mi of the day, a spring roll and a drink (bottle of water or a can of soda). You can upgrade your drink to a bubble tea for an additional $5. It was a Friday, so the banh mi of the day was the Traditional, which is essentially mixed cold cuts. We got a combo each. My husband got a bottle of water and I upgraded my drink to a bubble che (more on that later). You get a choice of a chicken spring roll or a vegetarian spring roll. We both chose the former. They bake their bread on-site and the bread is a legit banh mi baguette crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The banh mi was good, but the pork belly was sooooo fatty. I know some people like this, but I do not. I had to pick it out. It comes with different Vietnamese cold cuts including the one that is made of pork belly, pickled carrots, daikon radish and cucumbers as well as pâté, Vietnamese mayo (which is more like an aioli) and cilantro. We asked them to hold the cilantro, but they forgot. Not a big deal for us because it was easy to pick out. Just wastage on their part. Other than the fatty pork belly, I enjoyed the sandwich. The spring roll was hot and crispy and had ground chicken and vegetables in it. We chose sweet and sour dipping sauce, but there's the option for fish sauce as well. The bubble che is like a cross between bubble tea and the Vietnamese dessert che. It was chock-full of toppings which I loved. It had tapioca pearls, coconut jelly, grass jelly, red beans and toasted peanuts and coconut milk. It was really rich with a lot of different textures. I felt the amount of peanuts was excessive for my tastes and the crunchiness was bordering on weird. However, the toasted peanuts added this toasty smell to the drink which I oddly liked. I might request less peanuts next time. Definitely a drink for those already familiar with Vietnamese che or for the adventurous. I can see how it would not be to everyone's taste. Staff were courteous. There was a bit of a wait because they were very busy with orders, including lots of food delivery app orders. Sandwich makers wore gloves, which I appreciated. They also sell vermicelli or rice bowls and noodle soups. They have a small selection of imported Asian snacks, candies, ramen packages and bubble tea ingredients. They have an area to eat-in too. They are located in a small plaza and there is free parking in the plaza parking lot. Review #91 (2025)

Here if you want a regular cold cut ( regular meat filling at $5.50) or a special cold cut ( more filling at $1.00 more and so worth it ) . The baguette bread is fresher here and overall the sandwich tastes better. For those who like a little Maggi seasoning ( soy sauce like) in the Banh mi, you will get it here. Unless you don't like it then ask to omit. It is not fish sauce as one Yelper indicated. If you buy 10 Banh mi you get one free , really a great bargain especially at $ 6.50 CDN / sandwich which runs about $4.87 US (a real steal !) Most Banh mi in the northeast runs about $ 7- $8 a sandwich and overall not as good. They do not accept U.S. credit card here nor U.S. debit card because their system only accept debit cards from Canadian banks only. Just an FYI. So US visitors bring cash. They will accept US cash and can covert the currency for you because they also own next door business of currency exchange . Service was pleasant and fast . Definitely will come back. You will find a great tasting sandwich at a steal of a price. Always remember to toast it up a bit before eating and it is even better.

The grilled tofu and chicken bowls were really great. The tofu was probably the best I've ever tasted in my life, it was so well marinated! I did find there were a lot of noodles and I would have preferred more toppings like peanuts and green onions to make it a little more interesting. The banh mi was good but not as great as the bowls. We had imperial rolls too but I wouldn't recommend them, the taste was a little dull. I would stick with the salads and bowls for my next orders!

There are also sushi, chips, bubble tea and etc. That night my rideshare dropped me off close by; therefore, I could not say no to not going. This time I got the Nem Nuong but the Cha Lua and pate banh-mi is great as well. I find it a bit more "authentic". After 9pm, all the food in containers are 30% off. I forgot about that-got their at 9:03pm and a swarm of people rushed in. I am removing one star because I was charged for a 10 inch banh-mi but the lady used the 7 inch. Also, they are only $7.75!!!

We had been looking around for some food in the area, and my friend found this little banh mi shop. What a great find! The sandwiches had 7-inch and 10-inch options; we each went with the 10-inch and finished them quickly. My friend also got a spring roll and she said it was the largest spring roll she had ever seen. Service is fast and friendly, and the sandwiches are priced well (compared to banh mi's we get in San Francisco). I ordered the grilled pork sandwich (#5) and my friend ordered the #1 sandwich. I felt my sandwich could have used more meat inside, but the bread was delicious and the fillings paired well. The shop is quite small inside and seating is limited. They also heat your sandwich up so the bread has a nice crisp to it. Friend's Review: "Once you get to the middle, the ratio of bread to meat to veggies is good. The bread was super warm which made it enjoyable to eat."

One thing is their 35% price increase in one year, which doesn't explain when inflation has been 6-7%. 30-35% is a HUGE increase and note the menus shown on Yelp are outdated. Even within one month, I noticed their pho price went from $18 to $21, and their vermicelli up to $24. This is expensive even for NYC standard where I live. Again, food and service is great, but the increasing prices are exorbitant and bold.
