On July 18, 2025, approximately at 1:00 p.m. came in with my son to buy sandwiches once we we're unwrapping the sandwich, getting ready to eat a fly in between the bread and fly laid eggs inside. So I immediately called them and put a claim towards letting them know the situation. Spoke with an older lady who barely spoken any English. This is disgusting. Im never returning here. I hope they get sue close this location. I just hope I don't end up getting sick. i took a bite of the sandwich. I want my refund!!

These Vietnamese sandwiches are “The best sandwiches in town” as advertised on their packaging. French bread is freshly baked for that perfect toast that’s not too dry as I’ve had at other spots. The sandwich was over 12inches long and made to order. My go to Vietnamese sandwich is grilled pork with everything and they are generous with the meat. Sandwiches are so good that I end up never saving the other half. They offer clean seats and tables but nothing to boast about.

I have been coming to this place for more than 20 yrs. on n off. there would always be someone at register and one doing the sandwich alone. today 3pm only one lady. rude or just the way they talk. but she had one glove on left hand and no ok right. she made boba thai tea, she did her thing on register me paying her. she held the machine to tap my card w two hands- mond u w L hand w glove n right hand without. observing her closely n quietly- move to the sandwich - she put on a glove on right hand but did not change her left hand glove. she took a loaf of french bread , cut it w one dirty glove on left n new on right hand. she proceeded to put meat and veggies using her hands one after the other. gross and when I mentioned to her she said something only her can understand went to the back spoke w older man and said he does not speak English. sad how these people prepare food for their cuetomers who pays whT $ they ask for. next time i will make sure to video tape her or who ever makes my sandwich w such care. using gloves for everything - touching dirty register/ money and proceed to touching n prep sandwich n meat etc. if anyone go there please make sure to watch her prepare you sandwich - make her put on new hloves both hands. specially if she is on both register, sandwich making n others.

Everytime I come here I always get the #6 Grilled Pork Sandwich because its so damn good but today decided to get their #1 Special Sandwich for me and their #11 Fried Egg Sandwich for my daughter - read me, this place is off the chain making these vietnamese sandwiches. My adult kids and I, we are hooked. And we keep coming back for more for the past 3 years. My adult kids have been going to Sandwich Express since for quite some time now...way way longer than I have and It is them who got me into this little place. The ladies are wonderful. God bless their heart.

I came in on 04/22/2025 around noontime.
Food: I only wanted to try their Banh Mi, but was also distracted by their other food displayed at the counter. Grilled Pork Banh Mi (Banh Mi Thit Nuong) ($9.50): The sandwich is huge. The pork was flavorful, I asked for extra pate ($1.00). The bread is crispy. Bo Bia ($9.50): They were selling it for 3/9.50. The rolls are huuuge. The peanut sauce and chili crisp pairs well with the rolls. Sesame Ball (Banh Cam) ($1.50): it was crispy on the outside, and the bean filling on the inside is not too sweet. Pairs well with coffee.
Service: The service took a while which was understandable. Tons of people were ordering to go. But they prepared the food at a reasonable speed. I appreciate that. The lady at the cashier was kind to answer my questions and she recommended some food for me to try, and it was great!
Atmosphere: The dining space was clean. A little bit loud, but it's a restaurant so that's expected.
Overall the food tasted great. Would come back and try their other banh mi. 10/10 would recommend to a friend.
