Went for lunch with a friend. The shop is in a non-descript house-front. We ordered at a counter window. The lady was curt but courteous. She makes one kind of bahn mi. It was really good. The bread was crusty and warm. The various meats paired well with the pate and pickles. The flavors were strong and balanced. The price was reasonable for the size of the sandwich. Recommended. I'll return.

It's best to order ahead by phone. Only takes cash. Only one option I think (Vietnamese cold cuts). But hands down the best banh mi in Des Moines. Price is good too!

This is my family’s go-to spot for banh mi. As others have mentioned, 1 type of banh mi, and it is the cold cut - very delicious and affordable at $4.75 each (doesn’t get much cheaper or tastier than this, folks)! In fact, I’d go as far to say it is the best in Iowa! At someone’s house, service is very friendly, cash only, call ahead to place your order, especially if you are ordering many. Highly recommended!
Parking: Mid sized driveway and backing out onto the street can be a bit tricky with traffic

This place is great! I was brought here years ago and came back to get some sandwiches, and they never disappoint. The gentleman who helped me was very friendly and welcoming. I will definitely be back again.

Mekong Sandwich is one of those gems that you find in a big city. Their bahn mi are so good and fresh. We always call ahead and sandwiches are ready to go when we pick up.
