It's funny reading the prior reviews. Maybe the shop has changed, but I absolutely loved the sandwiches here. Expectations should be tempered:
- It's noisy, cramped, and a lot of things are going on at the same time.
- It's definitely easier to order if you speak Vietnamese. You can pick and choose what you want in your sandwiches.
- Prices ($3-4) are typical, if a little on the expensive side.
The bread is especially great here. It's crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside. It's also a good ratio of bread to filling - you don't want too much. The meats are tasty, the pickled vegetables are good, and chilies (interestingly not jalapenos) give a good surprise kick every few bites.
I destroyed these sandwiches one by one walking around. It's also buy 10, get 1 free, and trust me, it only seems ridiculous to get that many sandwiches until you try them.
