Really good banh mi. I love how they put shredded pork into the banh mi thap cam. Price is reasonable. Buy 10 get 1 free. Remember to bring cash. Very satisfied. Recommended

2024 May 3.5★ While the sign is up, Look carefully as it's literally a hole in the wall. Bánh Mì Đặc Biệt (Có Chả Lua, Ham và Bi) Vietnamese Deluxe Assorted sandwich $4.5 It's ok. Uses pork floss instead of cha lua (Vietnamese ham). Probably due to prices. There is an option to add it though for $1.5 Bánh Mì Gà Đút Lò Vietnamese Roasted Chicken Sandwich $4 Cooked shredded chicken. Not flavorful enough. Would pass. Bánh Mì Chà Bông Cá và Sả Ớt. Vietnamese Shredded Dry Fish & Spicy Lemongrass Sandwich $4 Portably the best one here. Flavorful spicy and a bit sweet. Not often you'll find dry fish. Fried banana. $1.50 Not bad, just oily. Overall, the bread is so so. There's a bit too much bread or not enough filling. For ~$4 worth checking out. Would only suggest #5 dry fish Limited parking. Seating at the park. Cash only.

This is a fantastic hidden gem. This place primarily serves banh mi sandwiches at a fantastic price. You order at a small window and a few minutes later you are ready to go; there is no seating other than a small bench. I got the roasted chicken and assorted sandwich which came to $8.50 for both; note it is cash only. The chicken was my favourite, it had really great flavour and the chicken was moist. For the value I would recommend this all day. Can’t wait to go again.

A great little hole in the wall place for Banh Mi. Ordered the shredded fish for $4.50. The banh mi is the best in the city and amazing price. They fill the bun well, very filling and tasty.

This is my favourite banh mi spot in the city. Great price and delicious flavour! True family business with great service and the nicest people. My go to’s are the assorted and the dry pork sandwich.

This is a to-go banh mi shop only. You order outside through a small sliding window. The bread was imperfect looking but the ingredients made up for it. I ordered the dried shredded pork for only $4.50. What a steal! It has just the right amount of filling and it was really tasty.

Decent banh mi for $4 each. Got the assorted and chicken sandwiches. Overall the sandwiches here are on the sweeter side. I'm a savoury kind of gal so probably wouldn't come back here again. Note: it's a grab and go place, no sit down.

Really good Banh Mi (Vietnamese sandwiches). The prices are really good - $4.00 for a sandwich. I got the satay shredded pork sandwich and it comes with various vegetables. The shredded pork was fresh. For an extra $0.50 you can get garlic oil on your bread which is worth it. The place is very small as you can see in the picture - it’s a grab-and-go joint. But it has that authentic Vietnamese street food feel. One of the best $4 you will ever spend.

Excellent service but i had to agree with one of the reviews the sandwich had a strong smell of bleach which isnt good for food consumption. They do not understand english so i tried to tell them and they just told me to go away. My suggestion is to please check ur order before leaving. Its a NO from me.

The bread is extremely heavy the sandwich is extremely dry with hardly any flavour!!! I don t see how some people who reviewed this place would consider anything above a 1 star and yet some considering it the best bahn mi they ever had !!! Horrible .

This place is a hidden gem! Never saw a bun mi place with a price under $5, affordable prices and delicious bun mi! I ordered the bun mi with shredded pork and sweet soy sauce, and the bun mi with chicken. Both were very delicious and tasty. The bread was crunchy, and the sauce delicious. I ate only one bun mi and was full! The staff are also very friendly. I highly recommend you to come to this place!

This is the last place in Toronto with Banh Mi under $5. Youd be wrong if you thought you got what you paid for. I was surprised with the amount of meat and pate in it - alot! There are lots of varieties of banh mi ( i.e fried chicken, bbq pork, shredded chicken etc) that I will give a try next time. One note that the bun is on the crunchy side so if you like soft buns, this is not for you. They also sell rice as well but the sign is in Vietnamese, feel free to ask what is the special of the day

★★★★★
December 22, 2023

Best banh mi :) the bread is extremely fresh, chewy but soft. The perfect ratio of meat, pickle and heat in the assorted! One of the reviews said theres no pate but I noticed pate in mine???? Two thumbs up! Its my new go to banh mi shop now.

★★★★
December 22, 2023

The lady serving me was really nice. I ordered two chicken satay banh mi and they were afoordable and amazing! I ate one and was definetly filled after eating one as the bun was bigger than other banh mi s I ve had previously. My only complaint would be that I would like a little more crunch to my banh mi however after reading reviews by others many like a softer bread. I will definitely be back to try more banh mi

I think this is one of the best banh mi in town. I always order the banh mi dac biet and gà x t . Their sauces/mayonese are really good. Their chilli and soy sauce are really good as well. The owners are super nice and friendly. When i bough a-lot of stuff, they often gave me extra stuff like the fried banana. Their prices are much better compared to others.

Honestly one of the best VN sub. Chicken sate was sooooo good. I paid for extra meat, $1.50 each sub, and it was worth it. The bread was crispy but chewy on the inside. Not dry or hard like some bread can be. Nice balance of pickled vegetables. The sauce, was delicious and definitely made the sub. I also bought fried banana for $1 each and it was super tasty. It was cold and I reheated in toaster oven and it was so crispy. Will definitely come back!! Parking: Many parking spots since in strip mall.

So I had to try this. According to google it is amazing. I was not disappointed. Its a little hole in the wall place that looks akin to a shack from the outside. The inside is no different with burglar proof bars everywhere and the man making the sandwiches behind more bars and a tiny window to pay and get ur food. The only thing i could read was banh mi which is what I ordered. I chose the first option and asked for it to be spicy. The bread was fresh and the filling was good. For an extra 50 cents i said yes to their house made? Pork floss. It was tasty but i wish they made it more spicy. For 2 banh mi and 2 pops with the extra pork floss it came out to 11 dollars!!!! My jaw dropped. Great value for money. I think its cash only. There is no dine in either. Oh and the owner is so nice!!

Ordered 8 of their #1 sandwiches which is what I normally see. Theyve got a lot of different varieties, which is a nice option. The person behind the counter offered one free sandwich if I buy 2 more. Ok, twist my arm, I bought 2 more. The bread is fresh as well as the ingredients. The paste they use as their mayo had some flavor which I dont remember if thats normal, but a nice touch. Overall, the sandwich was good but I cant say its a 5* sandwich.

I tried this place after reading some reviews for other similar places. Dont get me wrong, the person that made the sandwiches who I assume was the owner was very nice and the inside of the sandwiches were tasty but the bun was ROCK HARD and eating the sandwiches was almost impossible (I threw out most of it. Im sure the person that made the sandwiches was aware of what he was giving me). The price is NOT as cheap as what everyone says. Im definitely not going there again. It was just a waste of $$$$. Ill stick to my usual place that never disappoints (Nguyen Huong Sandwiches). You get what you pay for there (a tasty sandwich that is reasonably priced).

When I asked for a minute to get it in my car, he handed me the bag, waved me off with a smile and gestured dont worry about it.

We got the assorted sandwich and also the lemon grass chicken. Both were excellent, however, the chicken was extra phenomenal! Lots of flavour! The store front is kind of like a booth.
