About Chuck’s Takeaway

Chuck's Takeaway is a restaurant in SF famous for its Vietnamese bahn mi sandwiches, especially "The OG." The sandwiches receive high praise, with the Crispy Pork Belly Bahn Mi being a highlight. This dish features tender slices and crispy skin pieces, while the Le Dip includes perfectly cooked sirloin and a bold horseradish sauce. The sandwich is served on a special Vietnamese baguette with a glassine crust and soft interior. Customers note that the baguette is crispy but a little smaller, so those with big appetites may want to order two.

The restaurant is known for its high-quality ingredients and creative execution, making it a place for those who value these qualities. The mackerel sandwich has also been noted as one of the best, described as “elegant.” While the service is courteous and the space is spacious and easy to find, customers have mentioned that the service can be slow, with waits of around 25 minutes for multiple orders. Additionally, some customers have expressed concern over the added 15% service charge for takeaway, suggesting it may not be justified without table service. Despite this, many agree that the bahn mi offered here is among the best, making for a memorable experience, even if one should come without a rush.
