BEST BANH MI IVE HAD IN SAN DIEGO! The bread is so so good and perfect texture. I had the 1 Special and 7 Grilled Pork. Amazing service and best Vietnamese iced coffee. Ive a San Diego native and have been to Vietnam 4 times, so Ive had a lot of Banh Mi in my life. Hao provided great service and is very friendly! Highly recommend!

Banh Mi Express makes a yummy banh mi and friendly service. A true banh mi needs the right bread and veggie fillings to go with whatever meat or vegetarian options you like and this place has it. Many options. Ive had the banh mi special and the BBQ pork banh mi. Both were great. Havent tried anything else yet on the menu.

Wanted boba so I stopped into this place. I got their peach lemongrass tea and it was delicious! There was fresh lemongrass, peaches, and an orange slice in the cup. So nice to see fresh ingredients instead of mixed powdered drinks at other ...

The Bahn mis here are out of this world. I had a 1 Comboeverything and a 5 BBQ Pork, and they were so good. I took some to my uncle, whos 84 and had never tried them and he was blown away. The baguette is just so good, as are the ingredients. Also enjoyed the iced Vietnamese coffee. Super friendly. Casualchill vibe.
