Ba Le Sandwich Shop

Overall: 3.3/5 (take out) We came on a Saturday around 4:30 PM so it wasn't busy. We were craving banh mi so we did the buy 5 get 1 free sandwich deal. We wanted la lot but they didn't have anymore. The sandwiches came out pretty quickly too but there's a clear difference between which ones are good and which ones are bad. Ba Le Special - Dac Biet ($7.50): This was clearly their best sandwich. Everything was really good and tasty. BBQ Pork ($7): This was a close second. The pork came with peanuts, green onion, & house sauce which made it so flavorful and different from any other BBQ pork we've tried. BBQ Beef ($7.50): This was okay. It was more dry and less flavorful than BBQ pork even though it had the same marinade. Pork Belly - Ba Chi ($6.50): This was the third best banh mi. The pork belly was really thin and looks like xa xiu. Sweet Meat - Xiu Mai ($6): The sweet meat was so gross. The texture was like baby food so I can see why they call it the "Asian Sloppy Joe". We only took 2 bites. Pork Lemongrass Sausage ($7): The sausage was flavorless. It's the 2nd worse one. Would not recommend either. Crispy Chicken Jerky ($8 for 4 oz): Not a fan of the texture. Flavor is meh.

Started getting banh mi here in the late 90’s. Their bread is always excellent. Better than other SGV places I know The quantity and quality of filling varies some but no complaints 80% of the time Like everywhere prices have gone up quite a lot in the last four years Still an excellent sandwich value Try it if you haven’t

Delicious banh mi & so cheap! $4 for a big sandwich!! Definitely coming back for more. Update: tried more dishes. Yummm so good! $4 for spring rolls & $6 for chicken rice!! So cheap & delish!

Grilled pork banh mi has a different flavor due to the thinly sliced chilled onions and the bigger peanut crumbs they use. Never had banh mi with onions before. Bread, meat, veggies are thumbs up.

Really good sandwich with decent coffee is a good way to enjoy an early Sunday afternoon. ITEM'S ORDERED: Chicken banh mi w/ egg added Vietnamese Coffee TASTE: I've had a fair amount of banh mi & this was one of the better ones. Bread & veggies were fresh, chicken was tasty & a solid portion of it as well. Decided to add egg which just made it even more of a meal. I enjoyed how it wasn't just drenched in mayo, but rather had the right amount & went well with the light soy sauce flavor. Vietnamese Coffee was pretty decent. Not the best I've had but also not the worst. Really just a little too weak of a coffee flavor for me, but imagine most would be fine with it. SERVICE, LOCATION & PARKING: Service was friendly & it wasn't too difficult ordering in English as I've noticed at other places. They are cash only FYI. They are located in right off Atlantic & Valley in the Starbucks/Chase plaza. Pretty easy to find a parking spot but just FYI sometimes really busy because the Starbucks drive thru. There's so many different banh mi places around but I'll say I was impressed enough with this one so I'd go back here.

Cash only. Banh mi is okay, spring roll is good , good price. Coffee not really my taste. Nice people.

This is my go to for banh mis because I prefer easily chewable baguettes 😂. One of my biggest complaints with banh mis is how tired my jaw gets after eating one but I rarely have that problem here. I’ve had most of their menu but I really like the pate, nem nuong, and bbq pork/beef. They also sell other snacks and desserts. They only accept cash. There’s no seating inside. They’re located inside the Alhambra plaza so they share a parking lot with Starbucks and Asia supermarket so parking can be a pain sometimes.

Ba Le has been our favorite sandwich shop for 10+ years. However, when we opened our three barbecue pork sandwiches with everything on it, we were surprised to see very little pickled daikon, parsley or peanut crumble, but tasted the over-powering white onions and not much more. The pork was bland and the rolls seemed to be slightly smaller and spongy in spite of the prices increasing over the years. It's a big disappointment and if they don't return to their original proportions, we'll have to find another shop.

#2 special dac biet sandwich with extra pate (with or without chili depending on whether you like spice). Enough said ;) cash only Good egg rolls too if you want a little snack

Banh mi was pretty good. Try the desserts! I was pleasantly surprised coming to this spot. Keep small business alive! This is one of the less gentrified and affordable banh mi spots in the area. Bring cash, of course.

A great stop for whenever you're in the area. Came here after a camping trip with friends and originally wanted to split one banh mi with my husband so I told him to go grab the BBQ pork. And it was a decent sized banh mi compared to Lee's, so I was excited. Guys, it was so good we went to get another banh mi but this time we tried the employees favorite--I believe it was a lemongrass sausage version. Every bite I took, I felt like I was taking a bite of pho. As absurd as it sounds, the lady mentioned that it's probably the lemongrass that makes it taste like it. Anyways, I prefer the BBQ pork and I really can't wait to try the special next time. We also got an iced Vietnamese coffee. I think this is where I gave it one less star hoping that it would be sweet but as soon as I took a sip, I realized it was on the bitter side for me. Not my cup of tea...or coffee I suppose but the food is delicious with the perfect crunch in the baguette and you get a good portion of the BBQ pork in your banh mi. For the price, it was definitely worth it and the lady behind the counter was so sweet. Definitely has a ton of ample parking and easily to get in and out of. I think it was also around 3:30PM when we got there and it was pretty busy I thought so it tells you that it's a good spot for the locals. Absolutely love hidden gems / mom and pop shops like these. Until next time, Lina.

It's just another banh mi place. I think there's nothing that stands out, but I also ate it 4 hours after they made it and I can definitely tell that it could have been better if I ate it immediately. Definitely worth trying if you're in town but I wouldn't go out of my way to get it. Also it helps that it opens early. 7/10 for the food, but would come back still.

I love this place. Their bread is amazing and they open later than other Vietnamese sandwich places! I always call to place my pick up order and they ask how long before you get there so they can time the order to be ready. Their egg rolls are also good. I ask for veggies on the side to avoid soggy bread. Decent size (free) parking that shares with a few stores. Hassle free.

If you're on the hunt for a solid banh mi joint that doesn't shut down early, Ba Le might just fit the bill. We decided to give this place a shot when our usual place was closed for the night. Ordering was a breeze, and the staff were friendly and efficient. My husband opted for the egg banh mi, while I went for the BBQ Beef banh mi with veggies on the side. He seemed content with his choice, noting that you can't really go wrong with a simple banh mi. The BBQ beef was nicely marinated, but there was a tad too many peanuts for my liking. And where was the pate? It's usually a given, but perhaps we should've asked. One thing that sets Ba Le apart is their bread. It's not your typical banh mi baguette; it's softer and fluffier, reminiscent of bolilio rolls. While it's a nice change, traditionalists might miss the crusty exterior. I couldn't finish the entire banh mi in one sitting so I had the second half for a late dinner - toasted it in the oven and it tasted just as good as earlier. On the plus side, prices were fair, and portions were more than generous. Overall, Ba Le earns a solid 3.5/5 from us. It's worth a visit if you're in the area and craving banh mi in the evening, also don't forget to BRING CASH!

Awesome vegetarian bahn mi. (Not listed as vegan, but maybe?) Mostly pickled veggies w some mushrooms and tofu. Added my own mayo and siracha. Spouse loved his fish cake bahn mi. Bread was crisp on edges and fresh, soft inside. Cash only. Less than $14 for 2 sandwiches, awesome deal. Tastes better than my picture looks. Definitely feels hefty.

Work is crazy and didn't plan ahead to cater lunch for 17 on a Saturday. I called Saturday morning at 7am to order these sandwiches and they were ready in 45 mins. With this size I got an extra 3 sandwiches for free which was a nice surprise. My vegetarians were happy with their egg sandwich. 4 soft over easy eggs in each sandwich! My multicultural team really enjoyed it-- better than chain sandwiches.

Sandwiches are good, BUT they put peanuts in the BBQ pork sandwich and their menu does not state that there are peanuts in it. If you or anyone in your party has a peanut allergy make sure you ask if the sandwich you are ordering comes with peanuts.

BBQ Pork baguette packed full of seriously tasty pork and fantastic pickled veggies! My dogs vet is nearby and I live 30 mins away - but I was hungry and between the fresh ingredients and the fantastic price I had to give it a try. A winner. It's my new go-to whenever I'm down here. I asked for no peanuts and some kumquat iced tea which was also delicious (I definitely needed something to counteract the burning of the spicy sandwich - which, don't get me wrong, was actually wasn't so bad). Also, the place was packed at 2pm and both the employees AND the patrons were pleasant! Good stuff!

Not bad! I stopped by for a banh mi an hour before closing on a Sunday and there was plenty of parking in the parking lot. I ordered the special #2 and it's just over $8 after tax. They're a no frills, no indoor dining, no restroom type of joint. The banh mi is larger than some of the other popular places and they certainly don't skimp on the fillings. The bread itself was not bad - not super hard but not the softest I've ever had. I personally thought that the sandwich lacked flavor but tasted like they used a lot of chicken powder in the mayo (which I'm not a fan of). But the banh mi here definitely left me more satiated than some of the other banh mi joints in the area. Service is quick, but they're not super friendly. I probably won't ever be back, but it's nice to know there's a banh mi joint that stays open a little later in this area.

Ba Le has quickly become my favorite spot for banh mi. The baguettes for their sandwiches are amazing. They have the perfect crunchiness and chewiness. The BBQ pork banh mi is my usual go to with a side of egg rolls. Egg rolls have always been served hot and pair deliciously with their sandwiches. One thing to note is that the amount of veggies (on the side) for their sandwiches seem to be smaller compared to those from other banh mi places. I love that the service is so quick and easy. I usually call in my order right before I head over and it's never been more than a 15 minute wait. Parking is in a shared lot with Starbucks and Chase.

Great portion for reasonable pricing. $6.50 for a foot long stuffed sandwich is a steal. Sandwiches were delicious and veggies in them were fresh. The bread was also crunchy but also soft.

Called ahead to order so my grilled pork bahn mi was ready when I pulled in. Honestly I came here because a certain other* place was closed as the other reviews say it's CASH ONLY! The pork was pretty good, my only complaint is the bread is soft! I wish it was crunchy on the outside and soft inside. It's nice and thin so not too much bread I'm each bite. If I had taken it home I could've toasted it and it would been so much better, but I was out so no access to a toaster.

My new bánh mì sandwich place! Love their cold cut meats and the bread is softer and doesn't scrap the top of my mouth. Took it to a dodgers game and it was still pretty good a couple hours later! Cash only.

Great prices, good pick up to go food Sandwiches, egg rolls, drinks, etc Bread has good texture

Fast service!! Food delicious. Place is casual and clean!! Love the spring rolls. Parking is free and easy to find.

This baguette is the closet thing to fresh bread from Vietnam by my grandmas. Even after a day, the bread is still soft and doesn't turn into a hard brick. It smells amazing and reminds me of times with my family. Best to bring cash. I purchased a fried meat loaf log for a snack and a banh mi with Vietnamese ice coffee. Everything tasted good and the wait wasn't long. Definitely going to come back to order plain baguettes.

This is my go to for banh mis because I prefer easily chewable baguettes . One of my biggest complaints with banh mis is how tired my jaw gets after eating one but I rarely have that problem here. I've had most of their menu but I really like the pate, nem nuong, and bbq pork/beef. They also sell other snacks and desserts. They only accept cash. There's no seating inside. They're located inside the Alhambra plaza so they share a parking lot with Starbucks and Asia supermarket so parking can be a pain sometimes.

I will be the first to say: I'm a Banh Mi snob. After eating my fill of Banh Mi in Vietnam (the best was in Hoi An at a lovely woman's shop) I haven't really enjoyed vegetarian Banh Mi anywhere. Here comes Ba Le. Deliciously fresh ingredients, VERY fresh and crispy bread (and not so crispy that it hurts your mouth), and really well marinated tofu (which is really hard to find in the U.S.). Not to mention my sandwich was $5.50!!!! The Thai tea was also divine and only ~$3. My friend, who is a sandwich lover, got the original Banh Mi and said "this is the best sandwich I've ever had". The portions are great, the food is great, will absolutely be back!

Truly disappointed in this spot as it was one of my favorite banh mi deli's. Came by today to grab a quick to go. The counter lady looked on impatiently as I ordered. As I took one bite of my #2 special sandwich I had to spit it out. The Pate was sour! How can you let your pate go bad!? They didn't include cilantro and the cucumbers were cut roughly. I will not be coming back, felt like I'm walking away from an old friend.

This place is me and my family's favorite banh mi spot in the 626 area. I definitely prefer this place over Banh Mi My Tho. The quality of their food is always consistent and they are pretty fast with service. Their bread is a good mix of crunchy and soft, and it doesn't hurt the top of my mouth and I finish it. Their cold cuts are good and the mayo and sauce they use is also what makes me like them over other shops more. The only thing I've noticed is their bread has gotten smaller and they increased their prices after COVID, which is reasonable. I believe their sandwiches are around $7-$8 each and they are CASH ONLY. They do also sell canned/bottled drinks, boba, smoothies, teas, and Vietnamese desserts on the side if you want. As far as the restaurant and ambience, they do not have any seating indoors or outdoors and it is just a to-go place. They are located in a plaza and there are a good amount of parking spots, though it can fill up quick due to the other stores around it.

Cash only! Plenty of parking spots located next to Asia Market. Always come to get homemade pork loafs.

I've been coming here since I was a kid and so happy it's still here. Everything is still so fresh and affordable, it truly never disappoints. The bread is crispy yet also soft enough that it doesn't cut the roof of your mouth LOL, which is perfection in my eyes. I always get the #10 and it's absolutely delicious.

Really good authentic banh mis, however I will say I did enjoy banh mi my tho a little bit better. This place is still really good tho, a couple bucks more expensive than my tho, and it is also cash only. Located in a plaza so there is parking.

The food is always delishhh and fresh! I tried the fried egg banh mi for the first time and it was outstanding. The sticky rice is always appt good and comforting - huge portion

The place has been around for decades and it never disappoint. The bread is light and chewy on the inside but flaky on the outside. I love the pate they used. It's a bit pricey to get the extras so next time I'm going to buy the prepackage meats and pate and get more bang with my buck! Best banh mi in town!

I'm a huge fan of a different bahn mi place down the road but they were closed so I came here. I got the grilled pork and it was SO GOOD. I actually think the bread here is better than the other place I like. I love that they add peanuts, and they have a great ratio of ingredients.

I've been a casual patron of Ba Le for several years now, their food is always fresh and I appreciate that their bread isn't just some tough baguette. Usually I don't care for sandwiches too much, but whenever I want banh mi, I'm usually thinking of Ba Le!

Ayo! Alright here is my continuation on finding the perfect Special Combination Sandwich. I would rate this sandwich 4.5 out 5 and here is why. Well first the Bread was perfectly crispy outside with a soft chew so you won't be eating this as if Wolverine was cutting the Shi@ of the roof of your mouth. The meats they gave you were double the amounts anyone else gives so you are getting your $7.50 worth. You can tell the meats were very freshly sliced and plenty of the pickled veggies (oh they also put in thinly shaved white onion). Ok so here's why and this is just my opinion, the Pate used had a grainy texture, not smooth and wasn't as salty as it is normally so prob made in house. They were a little light on Cilantro and didn't have any sliced Jalapeños at all. That's it, nothing major. One last thing which i thought was yummy was they they also used mayo or butter as well on the top section. Anywho, I totally would come back for this filling sandwich and so should you! Go check out Ba Le! Oh Ice Coffee was on point too!

Not all heroes wear capes! I grew up on Ba Le Sandwiches. Their prices are affordable and it's truly unbelievable. They are doing charity work. I got their egg sandwich; $4.50, served all day. Cheaper than a gallon of gasoline! The egg sandwich is served on a French baguette, with pickled carrots and daikon, cilantro, cucumber and 3 eggs. I think a dash of Maggie would have truly taken me back to my childhood days. I washed it down Pennywort Drink, $2.50, a green chlorophyll drink - supposedly good at calming acne. Super refreshing. For most, it probably taste like grass. It's an acquired taste, but I grew up with it. I ate it in my car before driving home. I didn't want my mom knowing I was spoiling my appetite before dinner. The only downside is Ba Le accepts cash only. I had to drop by the Chase bank across the parking lot to grab $20 - which was plenty. Writing this review, I wish I have an egg sandwich now.

Looks like Ba Le is using the smaller sized bread and raising the sandwich prices, as of November 2022. Still tastes good though. I like the banh mi ingredient and dessert selection.

The Banh Mi sandwiches are good and for a good price. It is not a fancy place, in fact it is kind of old school and dated, but that is fine.

no pate or mayo, dry af, gonna toss this in the trash, wasted $8 and bread not fresh, from yesterday forsure

Ordered takeout from this place. For the price ($7 per sandwich) it's great value since you get a footlong. The bread is really soft and tastes like it was freshly made. Unfortunately the BBQ pork sandwich has peanuts in it which I am allergic to. Even a taste of the pork with no visible peanut was enough to trigger my allergy. The pork is sweet but otherwise minimally seasoned. Instead I ate the dac biet that my partner originally ordered. I wasn't a fan of the cold cut meat. It tasted like a really ordinary American sandwich - nothing stood out to me really. It includes raw onions and jalapenos, but no cilantro which I would have appreciated.

Before even coming here, you better have CASH CASH CASH $$$ in your wallet. This is how they keep their prices low, so let's cooporate. :D I had the #1 banh mi -- i'm simple. They are heavy hand with the pate spread (not mad at that!). The baguette is crusty on the outside and soft on the inside. Paired it with a milk tea -- superb! They also have little bottles of Chinese Soy Milk in their fridge. This place does open early (7:15 a.m.) so they will NOT make any of the other dishes on their menu (everything except Banh Mi's) by 2 p.m. So if you want to try other goods, come early (before the lunch hour).

This place has very good banh mi sandwiches and we always come back! It is CASH ONLY which sucks at times, but other than that it is great. They also have a bakery area filled with desserts. The service is very fast and parking is in a plaza.

So this review is mostly from a recent experience and only one type of sandwich. There have been good times and there have been bad times, but I think the bad has started to supersede the good. To start off, I think their buy 5 get 1 free is awesome and brilliant. It forces you to buy too many even if you're only feeding two people and I think that's smart marketing to increase sales. The main concern I've had has always been the amount of veggies - they give a very unsatisfying amount. I always get 6 sandwiches and I run out by the third one or so. I've learned that if I order here, I have to ration my veggies, but that's just sad. It really didn't help that this most recent visit, the cucumbers were slimy. Next comes the bread. Often it's on the softer side, which I enjoy since I'm really tired of having a cut up mouth (if you know you know). It was a tad more on the stale-soft side this time. Not too big of a deal, just a bit harder to pull apart. Lastly was the filling overall. Got the cold cut combo (all 6 of them) and it was...bland? Really not sure what happened this time. Wife needed started salting it like crazy and it was still lacking. Honestly, hoping they're just having an off year or something because they need some way to justify the $7 bahn mi.

When you are in the area or in the mood for an authentic Vietnamese sandwich..look no further because Ba Le is amazing. For around 5-6 dollars, you'll get a sandwich full of what you expect, fresh ingredients and marinated proteins. I ordered bbq beef and pork. Both were delicious and packed with refreshing vegetables.

Really good sandwich with decent coffee is a good way to enjoy an early Sunday afternoon. ITEM'S ORDERED: Chicken banh mi w/ egg added Vietnamese Coffee TASTE: I've had a fair amount of banh mi & this was one of the better ones. Bread & veggies were fresh, chicken was tasty & a solid portion of it as well. Decided to add egg which just made it even more of a meal. I enjoyed how it wasn't just drenched in mayo, but rather had the right amount & went well with the light soy sauce flavor. Vietnamese Coffee was pretty decent. Not the best I've had but also not the worst. Really just a little too weak of a coffee flavor for me, but imagine most would be fine with it. SERVICE, LOCATION & PARKING: Service was friendly & it wasn't too difficult ordering in English as I've noticed at other places. They are cash only FYI. They are located in right off Atlantic & Valley in the Starbucks/Chase plaza. Pretty easy to find a parking spot but just FYI sometimes really busy because the Starbucks drive thru. There's so many different banh mi places around but I'll say I was impressed enough with this one so I'd go back here.

So far, this place was a no for me. First off, when you're ordering three banh mi, and ask for veggies on the side and you get a little amount of veggies that can barely cover one sandwich. Come on! I know we're going through tough times, but I'm paying 7.50 for a sandwich, use to be $4-$5. When I asked for extra, she said she'll charge me for the same bag, but she can give me one smaller bag for free. I got the spring rolls and the smell of that was not good. It smelled and tasted as if I was eating meat that was sitting on a counter for a weeks. This is my first time here, and it's definitely my last.

Veggies were crunchy and fresh but too much of it and not enough flavors to balance it out. They really cheap out on the meat and butter. The cold cut meat and pate tasted bland and I had high expectations for this place. I was so disappointed when I bit into it because I expected a flavorful sandwich. The price is high though for a banh mi that tasted mid. It looked like a quality sandwich and unfortunately it didn't taste like how it looked.

Quick service. Amazing sandwiches. The Thai tea with boba is great. It's a small business that is fantastic

Ba Le is highly recognized as one of the best banh mi in SGV. We always order a bunch of banh mi, pork rolls, egg rolls, and spring rolls to go because it's one of our favorite places. Everything is really good especially the pork rolls, but the banh mi isn't as good as Banh Mi My Tho. Nonetheless, it's still delicious and will satisfy your banh mi craving. It's a cheap, tasty spot that will leave you and your wallet happy!

I was on a quest to find a good Vietnamese Sandwich shop besides Banh Mi My Tho (my families favorite). According to Yelp reviews, this shop is one of the top sandwich shops in the area. Sad to say, the price is 40% higher than Banh Mi My Tho ($5 vs $7) but the quality was subpar. You would think if you're paying $7 for a Vietnamese Sandwich, they would put two cucumbers to fit the entire sandwich. Instead, they only put one slice of cucumber to fit only half of the sandwich (see picture attached). While the sandwich is a tad bit longer than Banh Mi My Tho, Banh Mi My Tho stuffs their sandwiches with EVERYTHING (cucumber, pickled carrots and daikon, cilantro, etc). Maybe they were having an off day and the sandwich was put together in a hurry but it definitely could've been better....

This is a classic vietamese shop that has been around for the longest time, and many people grew up with this incredible gem in their entire lives. This is a must-go place for newcomers in the 626 area. Let's go, shall we? Let's go! 1. The sandwich is delicious and competitively priced. The baguette is soft and airy. The meat portion is reasonable. The vegetables are reasonable as well. The sandwich starts at $4. 2. The drinks and juices are competitively priced for $3. 3. The eggrolls are on the right side of the cashier counter. It is readily available to eat when you order. It is priced at .70 cents each. 4. If you want quick vermicelli noodles to grab, there are containers of noodles at the left side of the cashier counter. The noodles have vegetables and meat as well, making this a proper meal. The noodle starts at $5. 5. The service is quick and simple. There is no nonsense and the ladies at the front are wonderful, always eager to get you out as soon as possible. 6. There is no seating or dine in available, which is typical. You must come and go. There is also no restroom available as well. This is truly a fast service establishment, and mcdonald should take notes on this. Happy eating!

Found gnats in my food. I'm never coming back here! I use to come here often. Food inspection should check this place

I purchased two #8 and one #2 and it cost $22. The sandwiches were larger than I expected but not necessarily filled with more meat. It was pretty average to me and lacking in flavor. I was hoping the pate would blow me away like some of the reviews hyped but it fell short. The thit nuong (#8) was better than the Dac Biet(#2). I also purchased a che thai, and wouldn't recommend. It too was lacking in flavor. I was hoping to love this place as I love to support mom and pop shops but with such heavy pricing a per sandwiches it makes it hard. Also, it's cash only!

I can remember when or why I saved this restaurant, but I decided to finally try it out. We stopped by on a Saturday afternoon and the parking lot was crazy. We lucked out with a spot but the plaza was packed and people were waiting for awhile for spots to open up. We lucked out again with only 2 people in line in front of us because by the time we were done ordering the line was down the building. We ordered the special bahn mi and on a whim grabbed some spring rolls that were on display by the register. (All for $10 bucks! What a bargain) The sandwich was very good! I'm not positive what was on it, but there were three meats, cucumber, jalapeños, and some other veggies with a Mayo type sauce. The bread was great, soft on the inside with a nice crunch on the outside. I'd like to try another kind next time, a woman in line told us the meatball was her favorite. The spring rolls were also very tasty, the dipping sauce was great. The pack we got seems to be a variety pack with spam (I think?), shrimp and avocado. I will be back!
