My favorite all time banh mi spots. I’m from out of town and every time I visit I come here. The portions are very generous and it’s always quality food.
I have a couple banh mi places by where I’m from but the quality and taste is no match for this place. Not only that, the price is so reasonable I’m surprised it’s not more expensive. I wouldn’t even mind if they increased the price with how much everything is now after Covid.

Amazing flavor, the freshest ingredients, the owners are so nice, small cozy quiet cafe. Make sure to call ahead if it is after noon, as they sell out quick!

Some Chinese guy was smoking a cigarette behind the counter the whole time, and the food was delicious, 10/10 would recommend. Damn good sandwich

Food was okay. Menu consist of 3 different types of sub sandwiches. Bread was hard. Cost $9. Accepts cash only, does not issue receipts.

I'm addicted to the pork floss Bahn mi. Prices are great for such flavorful sandwiches, never had a bad meal either.

An excellent Bahn Mi. Highly recommend. Menu is extremely limited but for good reason. You won't need anything else.

Grab a sandwich, a Vietnamese Coffee and enjoy.

On "No Reservations," Anthony Bourdain claimed the Song Que Deli in Arlington, VA made "the best bahn mi [he'd] ever had outside of Vietnam."

I ate at the Song Que Deli before it closed; I had their bahn mi. The bahn mi at Ky Duyen completely knocks that other one out of the park. THIS is the best bahn mi outside of Vietnam. It perfectly blends the savory, the sweet, and the spicy together into a mastery of the form.

I haven't been to Vietnam, but it's quite possible this is the best bahn mi in the world. I will report back after visiting there.

If you are a fan of hole-in-the-wall sandwich shops, this is the pinnacle of the genre. It's located in an old pool hall. There is a cart near the entrance that says "bahn mi." They make three sandwiches, which are all variants of the same sandwich.

This place is a treasure of Syracuse cuisine, and one of the best things I have had the privilege of eating on this earth.

Wow, this is it! As a proud Vietnamese, I can confidently say that I have finally found the best Banh Mi spot around NY. The taste is simply out of this world, from the juicy meat to the freshly baked bread, everything just hits the spot perfectly! This is a must-try for anyone in the city, and I can't wait to come back for more! 100% recommended, you won't regret it! ❤️
