I like the price point and quality...my taste is more dinosaurs ? sandwiches tho...but when in the area and a blue ? I'll eat here again.
Wonderful take out restaurant with a tiny space that has a few high chairs to eat on the premises. Two basic foods done extremely well; ban mi and salad bowls!! We had a 5 spiced chicken salad bowl and the spicy pork ban mi and both were exceptional and tasty. Total cost was $22! So if you want a quick and cheap bite, look no further as this is the place!
Tiny takeout place with banh mi sandwiches, rice bowls, fresh spring rolls; we found seats and fabulous chicken & five spice chicken bowls, shrimp fresh rolls, and thai iced tea for a quick bite before the opera; you can tell even before that first delicious bite that this place is loved and frequented by locals. Do not expect atmosphere, or necessarily a place to sit although there is one bench and about 8 counter stools - we were delighted near the end of their hours, and will plan on finding picnic goodness here in the future as well!Vegetarian options: Overheard in our short visit: lots of folks ordering the tofu banh mi, bowl, and saw there are veggie fresh spring rolls.Dietary restrictions: I'm gluten free and was very happy with the bowl which has vermicelli rice noodlesWheelchair accessibility: Though the place is Tiny, a person using a chair could easily come in and to the order desk which is immediately by the door.

My friend and I went there for lunch during the week. She had a tofu roll, and I had the duck Bahn Mi. They were both delicious (we shared)The food was fresh, tasty, and quickly prepared. The pricing was fair to considering it's San Francisco. We ended up eating inside at a few counter seats, and had great fun watching the street activities.Definitely a recommend. Thumbs up :-)

Quick service, extremely reasonably priced sandwiches, and overall great food. I got the chicken and my friend got the pork meatball, both were delicious! Would recommend to anyone looking for a quick grab and go

It's a pricey sandwich maybe due to the location. They definitely have different protein options but it was just dry. Lacked flavor. Ordered 5 spice chicken, grilled pork, pate and meatball banh mi's. The worst was the papaya salad. Skip the papaya salad for sure.
This is a cute spot to fulfill your banh mi cravings near the many thrift shops in Haight-Ashbury! Their banh mi's are reasonably priced around $10, and they also have a couple bowls/spring rolls. The service is super quick and there are a few tables/a bar for you to eat at. I tried the classic roasted pork banh mi and the roasted pork bowl. The banh mi had a generous filling portion with the meat being super flavorful, and the pickled vegetables pulling it all together. What stood out was the meat seasoning. The bowl was pretty similar, just deconstructed and with rice instead of bread. Was it mindblowing? No, but for the price, taste, and quick/friendly service I'd come back!

My go to for affordable lunch and quality lunch in the area. I like the teriyaki tofu banh mi which come with carrot, jalapeño, cucumber, and mayo. The jalapeño itself typically is on the hotter side which compliments the sandwich well.The service is good and the food comes out fairly fast. With that said, there's not too much space in the store so I typically don't sit and eat there. Would recommend for a quick and good bite!

I only ever get Bahn Mi to go. Consistently good. Bahn Mi tend to be dry, but these are the juiciest in town. Ask for extra jalepenos if you want spicy, as they normally aren't very. Online order has been harder than just ordering there. This place is in heavy rotation for us.

The details matter, and dragon eats delivers at an affordable price.Tender meat, fresh crunchy veggies, the consistency of the bread. So good.
