Bought a bbq pork bun from the baked goods shelf, and it was really hard and meat was strangely sour tasting. Really hope we don't get sick from it. Should have read the reviews before going here.

I had the best grilled pork banh mi of my life (#7). They bake AND smoke the meat which results in a distinct, signature flavor. They also get their bread custom made.
As for the donut: Nothing inside, but nutty and slightly sweet. Sesame seeds make a difference!
I can’t wait to come back to try the lemongrass tofu banh mi as I’ve heard that the owner is vegetarian and this is her special order. The chicken noodle soup is also supposed to be amazing.
Lastly, I want to support this business because the owner has a kind heart. She has a contract with the state of California to supply the prisons with her food. The prisoners apparently (and as one would guess) get pretty blah food.

Friendly and quick service, and delicious banh mi and Vietnamese iced coffee.

Bread was stale and meat tasted old 🤮

I echo the previous review about this place selling stale items. The baked pork bun that I got seemed like a few days old. It was hard as rock and tasted bad. The mooncake seemed like a month old as well. It was bad! Wasted my money. Don’t patronize this place until they get their shit together.

Cool vibe but stale food. Ordered coconut bean jelly drink and somehow the coconut milk has already gone bad. Asked for some help or another drink and was told no refunds and no English. Good times.

Selling stale bread at a bakery is unethical. What's worse is they literally put this bread on baking sheets in a rack to make it appear fresh. Look how hard and stale it is in the video. Only $1.50 but I'm sorry, it should be labeled "day old".
This unassuming place has the best banh mi I’ve found in downtown Oakland. $8 after tax. Get the Banh Mi Dac Biet.

Solid Banh Mi’s, my favorites are the combination and BBQ chicken.

Good banh mi. Not too much mayo or grease. Bread is nicely toasted. Pickled carrots and cucumbers in the sandwich.

This bahn mi is so fresh and amazing that you might as well plan to order two.Edit: One year post COVID and I'm so glad to see Cam Huong bakery is still here.
