I ordered a tuna and when I got home there was no tuna sandwich in my bag I called the store and she said to bring it back and they will make a tuna sandwich for me but I told them I can’t come back right now so she said to put the wrong sandwich in the fridge and tomorrow or whatever I can come back bring back the sandwich to switch out and I was like ok so what am I going to eat I just drove 5 miles to buy the sandwich I am not driving another 5 miles for your stupid mistake but you owe me what I ordered and paid for. This is not Vietnam lady . How about for your great customer service I just stop coming to your business I think it’s the best option goodbye.

A Bahn Mi joint with a drive thru? Unheard of! If you've been to the Mira Mesa location, they're practically identical. LAdy in the drive thru was really nice and was super fast. I wish the drive thru menu displayed more items listed like they do inside such as their drinks, as they only advertise the sandwiches and some rice plates.

Bahn mi was excellent but, the customer service lady is very RUDE!

We just found out Cali Baguette Express has multiple locations! We were used to the one in Mira Mesa, but this one is equally as great. The lady at the register was very sweet and patient as we looked at all the different chips and sweets available on the table.

We enjoy these restaurants because the vegetables are crisp, the meats well seasoned, and the freshness of the bread.

Wonderful spot, homemade bread, and the person who runs the business was the cashier and really talked up the product! So we ended up getting large Vietnamese coffee, a whole fresh baked baguette (still soft and warm), 2 sandwiches (one bbq pork and the other pork belly), 4 egg rolls (2 of 2 different types), and a milk tea to go. Friendly atmosphere, and apparently really good for Ramadan and cheap late night eats!

This place is amazing, came in not knowing what to expect. I was on a business trip in the Area and came back a couple of times in a 1 week span.

Twee took my order and was great recommending some delicious food options.

10/10 recommend

Use to come here a lot for their sandwhiches coffees and egg rolls. I have always supported this family, and know Joe. Havent been here lately and wanted to grab quick sandwhich today 01/30/2025 @ 2:50pm. Whoever this new lady is. Had the nastiest attitude ever! Since I stopped eating pork for a couple years now. I asked if they had veggie eggrolls and they dont. Then I asked if there is pork in their meatball sandwhich And literally the lady said to me Everything has to have meat. Well no shit? couldn't even answer if it had pork in their meat balls. Extremely rude and bad for business. she didnt even listen to my question, and every response was in a rude tone. She didnt take the time out to listen to my question just assumed I was a vegetarian. This whole situation could have been avoided if she just took the time to care for a paying customer. in other words to who reviews this. THEY DONT CARE.

Expensive sandwiches served cold I guess restaurants want to serve cold tossed together crap so they can pay the bills and I understand that but I I don't like the cold sandwich thing it's not cool and I won't be back for a while. Thanks

Thủy had the nastiest attitude. I’ve been coming here for about 9 years and never left pissed off. She made me wait ten minutes at the drive through window with my newborn crying and then had the nerve to ask what I ordered. She literally chucked an ice coffee at me after I changed my mind for the size of coffee. Small is 4.31 and a Large is 8.62. Like I said I stated I’ve been coming here for 9 yrs plus and the smalls last year was 3.50 and Large 4.50, so yes I was caught off guard. I understand inflation and economic but that’s double the price of a small for 4oz more. I will be getting a small for now on but I’m scared of going on the day she works. I wish I had her schedule so I could dodge her. Honestly never seen her before til this year. She needs to go somewhere with that attitude. If she’s not the owner then hopefully he sees this. She’s gonna run his business to the ground with that energy

Actually I’m going to start going to A chau down the road
