Great sandwiches. I love that they offer 1/2 and 1/4 sweetness with the teas and coffees. I love a boba tea but the syrup is too much, but perfect at 1/2.

It was unhygienic, the place, the food, and there’s a strong weird smell.
I didn’t expect such bad banh mi in California.

Surprisingly strong showing from a tough location. The lemongrass ribeye salad delivered, tender, sweet slices of beef balanced by crisp, pickled vegetables with just the right hit of acidity. Solid textures and a well-balanced meat-to-veg ratio made this a satisfying dish. The setting’s forgettable, but the food’s worth a return trip.

A rather disappointing lunch. There were people taking up tables with entire office set ups, screen, keyboard etc and conducting meetings. Making the atmosphere unpleasant for lunch. The food was very simple, my banh mi had no sauce on it and when we asked they did not have shiracha to put on it. Just bread, tofu and carrots, definitely not worth the price. Service also slow, it seems only one person both taking orders and cooking the food.

The Spicy Chicken Banh Mi w/ Spicy Mayo was excellent and very flavorful, bread was the perfect banh mi crunch. I stopped by shortly before they were closing for a quick togo order, I don’t live or work in the area, but will likely make another stop to get the same sandwich.

This is a clean, fresh, new restaurant with excellent choices and great food. We came in at noontime on Saturday and ordered right away. The food took a little longer to prepare than I expected but it was worth the wait. Lemongrass beef bowl was big and very tasty. Highly recommend.

DELICIOUS as usual. One of my go to bahn mi spots in SD... hadn't been to this lication. I like it... way more parking than the other lication
Worst boba drink I have ever had. I ordered an avocado blended drink and it tasted like pure oat milk or like sesame seeds for some reason. No taste of avocado whatsoever. I am extremely disappointed and I don’t recommend.

Thoroughly underwhelmed by the banh mi. The service was okay, and it's a nice enough storefront but just really mediocre banh mi sandwiches. Right off the bat on the first bite I could tell it wasn't going to be great because the bread is way too soft. Having good crunchy bread is a staple of good banh mi and they missed that mark. I had the spicy crispy chicken and the whole time I was eating it, all I could think was that it tastes like a spicy crispy chicken sandwich from McDonald's... Except it wasn't even spicy. I know that taste is subjective but for me there wasn't nearly enough veggies, I couldn't taste the cilantro at all.

Very Americanized Bahn Mi, but they were done very well. They really paid good attention to the bread, which makes or breaks a good Bahn Mi. The sandwiches are large for the price, lots of sides to choose from in racks out front and interesting bakery items for dessert. They are fast and accurate and offer some really interesting choices. We got our jalapenos on the side as I don't like them and my husband does and they got it perfect.
The very traditional roast meats and pate sandwich has the good funk of fresh pate, and all the crunch of fresh carrot and daikon pickle. The bread was perfectly toasted. The lady at the counter was super friendly.
With all the windows up front it could be very hot in the summer, but it was pleasantly toasty in the winter.
