| - All of the Vietnamese sandwich shops that my family went to when I was young have long closed, or sold off to people who let their quality decline. So my mom and I ventured to try this place next to her hairdresser after the owner suggested this place. The young cashier speaks Vietnamese and English, so you do not need to fear the language barrier. I saw many people of all different ethnicity enter and order without issues. They are also patient enough if you are like me and get into fights with your family about who gets to pay.
There is one table inside the restaurant and two outside. This place is more of a take out venue for a quick grab and go lunch. Although it does not provide places to lounge about, it offers a wide range of excellent Vietnamese options. We ordered five special sandwiches, one meat stuffed bun, a plate of ground pork and mushroom rolled noodles, and a plate of red pork bites. The sandwiches were everything a good banh mi should be; crunchy, savory, sweet, complex, with a bite from the green peppers. The noodles are a favorite since childhood and I recommend getting some Vietnamese sausage to go with them. The steamed meat bun, after reheating, is the perfect breakfast with a cup of strong coffee.
