I love the shrimp spring rolls. I love the Vietnamese sandwiches. I love the flavorful drinks. This place is family owned, and now open again every day. Really nice people and the lowest prices in town these days.

I’ve noticed the sidewalk sign for the last few weeks and finally stopped in today. I had the vermicelli noodle plate with chicken. It was delicious! Everything tasted very fresh and it came with a good portion of sauce on the side. Will be back.

Bought some fruit teas here and they were delicious. Huge chunks of fruit plus the service was amazing. Very sweet lady at small local coffee shop.

Food was delicious! I would recommend the beef vermicelli as the meat was especially flavorful. Service was also fantastic, and the woman working there was super nice and helpful.

Food is great. We had pho, vermicelli, Boba milk tea. No bathroom. Very small seating area. We were very happy finding pho walking distance from our hotel.

Try the banh mi or pho. Both are delicious! The staff is so kind and friendly. Great spot for a healthy, delicious lunch.

Vy and her father Luc are so incredibly sweet and make wonderfully flavorful Vietnamese coffee which is from their hometown of Dalat in the southern Highlands of Vietnam. Their ban mi sandwiches are absolutely perfect and authentic like the ones in Vietnam down to the texture of the bread and the vibrant flavors of the peppers and pickled vegetables. Come by and enjoy their sincere hospitality and good vibes.

I was contemplating in coming here bc of the customer service reviews. BUT I come in and the lady says hello slightly smiling. I order at 12:40 before the combo deal starts and allows me to get the combo deal of banmhi(written wrong for sure) and a drink. Although they’re not smiling at me and asking me how my day is (yk service shpeel), the food/ drinks were great, she cleaned my table before serving my food, told me if I needed any adjustments for my Vietnamese coffee to let her know, and even provided me with the wifi password to study. So honestly, it was a great experience.

This is a hidden gem! Vy’s homemade lemongrass tofu banh mi are the best banh mi in the bay! I’ve never had such good tofu banh mi, including in my travels throughout Vietnam! After I tasted her banh mi, I immediately returned to buy another. I even brought my family here when they visited from out of town. Vy and her father are also kind, friendly, and welcoming. Truly amazing service and great prices. Their thai tea boba and their special happy hour deal is great. TLDR: this spot is my new favorite and is a must try!
