Tung Hing Bakery — Restaurant in Toronto

I think this is one of the best places for a Banh Mi sandwich. The style is different from other shops around town as they go for longer and thinner bread which doesn't need more filling.

Tung Hing goes for a longer (9.5") bread and slimmer bread that simulates a mini-french baguette. The bite and texture is delicious along with the ratio of filling to bread is great! Other Banh Mi places in Toronto may have a similar price but you get a fat and shorter bread that makes it seem like more there's more filling but hard to get a good bite ratio of the sandwich and the texture and ratio is not the same. The Banh Mi from Tung Hing has the perfect bite and the fresh baked bread is crispy makes it one of the best places for Banh Mi. It's only $4 and it's similar to the youtube videos of Banh Mi sandwiches from Saigon. I've dine in restaurants that sell them for $8 for the same amount of filling(those restaurant don't last long as people realize other places are cheaper and better). They don't stuff it with filling like Western style sandwiches from deli stores for $12+ (subway doesn't count as that's just like a fast food version) nor does it needs to have more filling if you want more than you're too used western style or just like filling.

Last thought if you want to eat it the next day keep it in the fridge. Reheat it in the toaster oven for a few mins (I put mine in until toasted medium) and you will get a flaky crispy bread thats fab-ul-ous with the...

Was my first time in the bakery and was happy to hear how pleasant the person behind the counter was. It is rare for people to be enthusiastic these days, but she was talking to some other customers regarding age and complimenting them. I felt good energy already. While I was waiting, I saw a cash only sign and said out loud "oh damn, cash only?" The person right away replied "we take e-transfer as well" even while with the other customers. That is good service! The transfer started with pearl and I assumed that she was the owner. I asked for recommendations about the Banh mi. Pearl responded with her two best sellers and I stopped her immediately and said "those will be fine." Pearl was absolutely delightful and once I got home, I devoured both sandwiches plus more food since I have a large appetite.

If you ever need a "cheap" Banh mi, that tastes great this is the place. Fast, friendly and tasty.

Thank you so...

I have been debating whether I should review Tung Hing Bakery.

On the one hand, they have the best egg tarts in Toronto, south of Finch, and are almost always sold out by 10:30am. There's a line up for their Bahn Mi starting around 11am. They are consistently friendly.

On the other other hand, more people will find out about this place, further limiting my access to their egg tarts.

Although there are a couple options for egg tarts in the area (Phoenix bakery, or the dim sum restaurant nearby), both options do not compare to Tung Hing's incredibly buttery and flaky offerings. If you plan on buying any after 11am, it's recommended you call ahead in the morning and ask them to set some...
