How can you tell if this place is good? When Lee's sandwich (competition) employee tells me that this is the best place for the Vietnamese sandwich I have to try this place out. Surely, their sandwich is off the hook. Their bread is soft and you have an option to put a fried egg on your sandwich. After you get used to this type of v-sandwich you start to believe that this is the only way to eat the v-sandwich. Here is the some fun fact about this place.

I probably won't go back, but if I do I'll definitely get a...

Despite confirming orders with receipts, even the the preparer, they screwed the orders. We didn't find out till we get home. DOUBLE CHECK YOUR ORDER BEFORE YOU LEAVE THE JOINT. Check out their competitions, like PICKLED Bánh Mì
2023: They skimmed on the fillings in bánh mì, no patê, less chả, the bbq pork no longer seasoned correctly, sôi spoiled after a day despite refrigerated. We saw others inspected their orders before leaving the joint, we should hv done the same. Despite, still a round line to the door. $6 each bánh mì, $1 fee for less $20 cc charge. time to find...
