Very crowded today with all the bar seats occupied as well as a long line for takeaway.
The four people in front of me all got the tofu banh Mi so I know I made the right choice by getting it too.
There was a new counter staff today and he was so nice and friendly. I was being very annoying when I asked for takeaway at first then changed to dine in but his attitude stayed positive and enthusiastic!

Banh Mi Chay // Fried Tofu Banh Mi $98
Unfortunately, the chicken Banh Mi is better in my opinion. First off, the bread to filling ratio is off with a huge piece of bread that had to be eaten by itself. The lack of pate also made it less enjoyable, the bread was also not warm like last time even though I had to wait 10 minutes to eat it and today I ate it straight away.
Moreover, the tofu is very thin and they only gave me 3 pieces which was very sad. Although the five-spice flavor does come through and does taste delicious, I wish there was more for this hefty price.
The pickles are crunchy and spicy, same for all their Banh Mis. No complaints there and it does pair well with the tofu.
Also there is 1 single cucumber in the sandwich that’s coated in a scallion oil sauce (similar to the ones for 白切雞) which was the best thing I’ve eaten in the whole sandwich.
推介 ❌
💬 Overall, would rather get their chicken for the same price as it’s tastier and has more. This sandwich is not as filling as the chicken too due to lack of protein so recommend getting a snack with it.
🗓 Revisit? ✅ / ❎ might go and try other Banh mi places before coming back here
