I had an amazing experience at Cam Anh Deli! The food is absolutely delicious, with a diverse range of authentic Vietnamese dishes that are both healthy and flavorful. The atmosphere is warm and cozy, making it a perfect place to relax and enjoy a meal. Everything was spotlessly clean, and the service was exceptional—super friendly staff who made me feel right at home. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for tasty, healthy Vietnamese food. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Don't come here.
I ordered the special combo banh mi + extra pate for $12. The sandwich had only 1 slices of each meat, the bread was very old and hard and they never have me extra pate. Do not eat here the food is sub quality.

I came here on Saturday afternoon at 12pm. There was no line which is a clear giveaway that it is not popular with the locals.
The bread was stale and hard. The fillings were ok; I was expecting a little more spice. For a banh mi that is priced $9+ I was definitely expecting more but I was disappointed
The ice Vietnamese coffee ( cà phê đá) was bitter and harsh. Also in my cup, there was more ice than actual coffee.
All in all, I would pass and look for other options.
It’s too bad because the former sandwich shop in this location was fantastic. I believe it was called Cam Huang

I wish I could give 5 stars, this place is a community gem. The lemongrass tofu sandwich is fabulous, and the owner is so kind. She’s been recognized by the city of Oakland for serving food to the unhoused population 3 days a week for years. She is vegan and has several off-menu vegan items if you call ahead - vegan pho, egg(less) rolls, etc.

Its funny how all the high reviews are from white people who didnt grew up eating at this place. I havent been to this spot in over a decade and a lot has changed. The fried rice, eggroll, and banh mis were just so so bad smfh. Compared to 15 years ago this place is a shell of itself. Rice texture and taste felt like a couple of days old rice. The banh mi bread was definitely stale. The egg rolls were also old from what i can tell as it was super dry. Theres no way it came out of a fryer that morning. This place sucks which is why theres no more big lines for it anymore. Ive heard the rumors of the new owners destroying it but didnt realize it was this bad! Prices are also outrageous for bad food. White people love to inflate these reviews and trick people??? Edit: At least its cleaner now for the white people

Vietnamese coffee is terrible, tiny cup full of ice and then only filled 2/3 with coffee. Ridiculously overpriced at $7…..

The owner is super friendly and accommodating. We had the lemongrass tofu banh mi, spring rolls, and egg rolls. All were vegan. The owner is vegan and was very happy to serve fellow vegans. The kids loved it as well. Great prices and great food!!

I'm not sure if the name change, I actually didn't pay attention to it, I'd always remember it being a Chinese restaurant growing up, but that didn't make sense as this is where I discovered Thai ice tea. On my way home, I would stop and get a bite to eat, Photo is old.
