Very dissapoint with the portion. I got the special combination but what i got is mostly carrot pickle and vegies. The cold cut is just 1 thin layer. Pate also being skim. There is no aroma from any of them. Just some taste and crunchy. No smell from pate, butter even the herb dont give much either. Order a sugar cane juice and it is $8 for stufpid drink. It not even big, only 1 squeeze is stupid idea. Squeeze as much as you need. U filter anyway so. U make the drink cost more and mostly wasteful ingredients. Not gonna come back anymore. There are much more place provide better banh mi with more portion.

They sell nice boxes if you feel like gifting a dozen or more Pate Chaud (which are good). They also have one of best Vietnamese baguettes in the area, no butter in the recipe as God intended. Not sure why every place is adding butter into their recipes.

A local friend who introduced us cafe and patecheaux which were tasted good. We used to make Cafe du Monde with condensed milk at home, Houston, TX. Patecheaux were tasted good much better than if I bought them from "Lee's sandwich" in Houston, TX. We wished the shop to allow customers to sit inside the shop for chit chat and drinking cafe together on that morning.. We stayed 5 nights in the local motel "Little Saigon Inn" next to this cafe sandwich shop.

I came here as per one of the recommendations from a Vietnamese FB Group. They haven't steered me wrong yet and in face I have been to many of their amazing recommendations and loved it. Tip Top Sandwich was not one of them!I ordered 2 meatball sandwiches, 2 dac biet (specialty) and a sugarcane drink.Meatballs were literally microwaved in front of me before going into my sandwiches. When I finally got the chance to eat it, there was way too much soy sauce used that it overpowered the whole sandwich which in turn made it a tad salty.Specialty had the usual as any other typical Vietnamese sandwich but the meats were lacking! Literally 1 sliced of meat each to just cover the sandwhich, they only had 2 types of meat, and the butter and pate was barely there.Sugarcane drink is the same as anywhere else in Garden Grove. Juice in a cup with a hint of kamquat/orange. Can't really mess it up if you tried.I noticed while I was waiting that other customer came in and only bought baguettes and now I know why.Baguette was the best part of my sandwich. Crunchy with a slight crackle when biting into em and soft and chewy. If I was to go back it would only be for their baguettes.The Sandwich shop isn't inviting from the outside and when you step inside it looked like it's glory days were for behind it. Only 1 of the 4 menu monitor were on. Had cables and wired dangling from walls and televisions that doesn't work. Supplies and boxes scattered on both sides of the shop.I wouldn't recommend this place for any Vietnamese sandwiches. For your money, you can get way better sandwiches for your money ie Pickle Banh Me, Carrot & Dikon and Banh Mi My Tho.Pros: Customer Service and Plain BaguetteCons: Sandwiches and inside the sandwich shop

A run down store… so sad! The place is dirty and looks like a storage room.i.e. Dirty recycle cans in a big trash bag is on the table and right at the serving area… will not come back to this place!

Once upon a time this was a great place, it has changed for the worst. Box stacked to the ceiling,, place looks dirty. Menu has shrunk and the service stinks. I asked to use the restroom and I was told I could go to Target across the street. Wow, so I can't wash my hands before I eat?! They also over charged us for which they were very apologetic but, good thing I checked tab. Tip Top was my go to but not anymore.

The bread here is amazing, seriously amazing. Also, try the wintermelon drink, so yum. Almost forgot, patechaud, last time I was there, they had s special, but 6, get 1 free. Got them right as they were coming out of the oven. Perfectly flakey, just the way God intended it.

This is by far the best place for French baguettes. I used to go to Lee’s Sandwiches not knowing that there’s this place. They make bread like pros, and not the commercial type that would dry in a couple of hours, but lasts for at least a day. Freezing it would even last you for years, ?
Banquette bread is a little high and chill environment but it's okay, I suppose.

Wow! Great food, amazing fruit juices, fairly priced and really nice staff. The manager / owner even took time to come and check how I was doing. I highly recommend this place. Loved it and they deserve all the success.
