Baguettea

Tried this spot for the first time today and it did not disappoint! I’ve been to all of the ‘best’ banh mi spots and have been disappointed so I am excited to finally find a place that makes amazing sandwiches! It was so good - my husband got a second one while we were there. I had the combo and he had the chicken and pork. The combo and grilled pork were our favorites! The owner (I think?) was so sweet and very personable as well. Love supporting small businesses! We’ll definitely be back!

Found this placed on FB Asian Eats Group recommended. I stop by today and was very impressed with their Authentic Banh Mi Special with everything on it!! I am going to come to this platform now on. I HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

The nicest workers greeted us with friendly smiles and conversation. The Bahn MI is one of the best ones I've had! The Vietnamese Iced Coffee was fantastic! Will go back the next time we drive thru Houston!

This place is so worth the long drive. Tried the rice dishes this time and the portions and the flavor were mind blowing. We shared a combination banh mi which was great as always. The bread has the perfect crunch and they are very generous with the meats! Biggest plus is the lady who is there. She is so kind and sweet!

You don’t have to drive to Bellaire Blvd to find an authentic Vietnamese Combo sandwich with a properly cooked pork roll slice (thit nguoi). Also, the grilled pork (thit nuong) was superb. Be warned, the sandwiches are loaded up generously, as you bite and start to finish consuming it, excess meat slices with that rich Viet mayo-butter will start to squeeze out the sandwich. No stingy banh mi portions from this restaurant!

WOW!!! What a GEM, and definitely worth the drive. Kim and Lee were so friendly and helpful. They greeted us with a great smile and gave us great recommendations! The service was super fast and everything was DELICIOUS. The Crispy Pork Belly Banh Mi (only served on weekends) was TO DIE FOR, packed with crisp vegetables, spicy jalapeño, fresh cilantro, and melt-in-your-mouth pork belly. If you like coffee, the Thai Coffe is a mixture of Thai Tea and super strong Vietnamese Coffee. It’s super flavorful and has just the right amount of sweetness. The boba was so fresh and perfectly sweet and chewy, 10/10! This place is truly worth trying. We’ll be back!!

Was greeted by a very nice young lady. It looks like it was maybe Mom next to her making the orders. They’re very friendly. I was able to order a pork vermicelli noodle, a couple of grilled pork baguettes and leech tea with Boba. Dad was out running an errand but came in and greeted and was very nice. It was very quiet but excellent food super fresh and refreshing you can even buy the bread would definitely recommend if in the area.

We’re hugs fans of lees sandwiches but moved to this side of Houston.. this was such an unexpectedly delicious sandwich! 10/10 recommend

Always on the quest, for the best banh mi in Houston, this place has been mentioned several times as a solid contender. Unfortunately for me, it isn't on my side of town and far from Chinatown. It's all the way near 249 and the Beltway, amongst a small but growing Asian strip center. Price wise, it's a bit more expensive than your Chinatown banh mi, as that is usually the case. I ordered both the grilled pork and cold cut combo, my two favorites. There wasn't a need to ask them to cut it in half, as it already comes that way, which is nice. The banh mi comes in a styrofoam box, which is new to me. While I appreciate the extra protection, the environmental side of me frowns upon it. The first thing I noticed when preparing myself for a bite, was that the bread was not toasted. It was room temperature and without a flakey crust. Bummer. Good bread is essential to a good banh mi. The filling was delicious though. I love how they smear the pate on both the grilled pork and cold cut combo! The veggies and meat were portioned perfectly and fairly tasty. Best banh mi in Houston? Eh... if they could improve the quality of the bread, perhaps so. I want the crispy golden flakes to make a mess as I bite in. I'm not even sure there was any butter on the bread. Unfortunately it was a slight let down. The drinks looked pretty awesome at a great price, but I'm here strictly for the banh mi.

Came here friday just before noon and there were plenty of parking spaces in the plaza. There were also plenty of seatings inside and it was super clean and welcoming inside. I ordered #1 combination and it was so delicious. The sandwich had a generous portion of meat. The bread had a good balance of softness and crunchiness. The pate spread was the star of the show. It totally made the banh mi exceptional. I also ordered the Vietnamese coffee with boba. The boba was decent for a non dedicated boba shop. The Vietnamese coffee was on the sweeter side, which suits me. The wife was super friendly but the husband needed to work on his customer service. Husband initially did not want to give us tap water, but the wife correted him and gave us water.

The delightful grilled chicken sandwich had an abundance of meat and flavor that truly impressed me. Although the tea wasn't what I anticipated, it still had a delicious touch. The owners were incredibly kind, and the aroma of freshly baked bread upon entering was truly delightful.

I visited this newish banh mi place, which is in the same shopping center as a crawfish place I also recently visited. It's clean and modern and has the usual teas, banh mi, rice dishes, and vermicelli dishes. Don't get me wrong, though, the food options are just basic, as they are not a restaurant by any means. I tried the grilled pork sandwich, the combination, and a Thai tea. The Thai tea is pretty light and not too sweet. Their sandwiches come with pate and butter. Most I've tried just come with butter. Overall, the meat is just warm or room temperature and did not come out steaming hot by any means and I thought the sandwich was just average. The combo sandwich was average as well.

Stopped by to try the bun mi sandwich and it is delicious. I got the combination sandwich. Bread is soft and crispy, the sauce and meat are flavorful. I was the only person in the shop and was greeted immediately by the owner. The girl looked as though she was busy making large orders and managed to fit in my sandwich. Place is small, more of a togo and not dining in. Although there were 2 tables and chairs if anyone wants to get away from the heat.

I've been wanting to give this place a try for a minute and finally got there before closing. And I mean barely, diving in the door at 3:53 on Sunday. But even still, I was warmly greeted with a smile & a giggle. Most places would've been like nope not today LOL. Combo is my go-to for bahn mi & so happy I stuck with my gut. As you can see by the pics, there are no skimpy portions going on. The veggies, meats, bread oh my goodness gracious just everything was so fresh. I noticed the roll was crunchy enough but not hard or dry. I'll definitely be back to try out the rest of the menu, including the teas. If you're in the area give this place a try. The price is on point & it won't leave you hungry. Yelp on my friends!

For all my people who love Alpha Bakery, Don's and Long's Coffee bánh mì, Baguettea comes extremely close to all of the business' mentioned above!! They make their own banh mi, and the petite owner always remembers what I like including my tea, super sweet and personable!! I enjoyed the bánh mì đặc biệt and bánh mì xíu mại!!

I was actually browsing Facebook and saw someone post about this place near me claiming it's a great hidden gem. Good timing since I was craving Banh Mi and thought it would be good for dinner. Location is in a complex on Veterans Memorial near the Beltway. There is such a modge podge of different businesses, it took me a bit to see where this place was in the complex but I was able to find it. There's plenty of parking too. I arrived 30 minutes before closing and felt the service was good. Everything was quick and made to order. I also talked to the couple there for a bit. They both seem friendly. Our whole conversation was in English. The lady was very passionate when talking about the food so I took that as a positive sign. Inside, the place looked clean and modern. There are a few tables inside so folks could eat in too. For food, I ordered two Banh Mi Thit Nuong to go and a Kumquat Tea with Passion Fruit Jelly. I asked for one with the veggie fillings of the Banh Mi's to be kept on the side since that one was for my husband who was planning to eat it a little later than me. I appreciated that the female re-clarified my order. After a 6 minute drive home, I was ready to eat and WOW, the Banh Mi is excellent. It's obvious the bread is fresh. The outside was crunchy. I think I read in another review it's made in house. The filling was tasty and gracious. I was told to definitely keep the Pate in mind since it was made fresh there as well and OMG, I could just eat that with the bread alone. It's buttery and savory. My favorite is it oozes out with every bite. I don't recall pate in any Banh Mi Thit Nuong that I've ordered in the past from other places so I'm not sure if it's bc the lady wanted to make sure I tried it so fyi. The tea was tart and refreshing. It had a bit of a grapefruit like undertone. I had asked for no sugar but thought it had a good sweet taste to it so fyi on that too. The jelly was spot on. It tasted like the usual passion fruit jelly I've had before. I am definitely coming back to this place. Overall, 5 stars. Glad there's a good new Banh Mi spot near me!

Great portions, freshly made bread! Very good meat to bread ratios. Tasted great, meat was tender, fresh veggies, good pate and mayo. Mom and pop shop service was great, they were really friendly

I've had my fair share of banh mi but was blown away with the banh mi here at Baguettea. I'd have to say it's THE best I've ever had. Perfect baguette texture, perfect about of meat and veggies, and a taste explosion in your mouth. I wish they had one closer to Memorial area but it's worth the occasional drive!

Best banh mi in Houston hands down. Stumbled upon this hidden gem while in the area. I've eaten many banh mi's in my day and didn't expect it to be this good. Full of meat and veggies to the brim. Baguette has nice crunch and texture. Just perfect!

Excellent bahn mi sandwiches!! Love this place. It a a great stop either on your way to the airport or on your way out to grab a sandwich before or after your flight!! Support this family owned business

Best banh mi in town so far! I've tried a few here in Houston and I have not found any to be good lately. But this one is the best! The bread was fresh and not too hard or soft. The meat fillings was a great portion lots of meat and fresh vegetables, with a dash of Maggie sauce! If you haven't tried it it's a must! The restaurant was nice and clean. Great customer service as well.

Came here during lunch time on a Friday. Had their bbq pork banh mi, egg rolls, and kumquat drink with passion fruit jelly. Everything was delicious and fresh and I love how they make their own baguettes in house and they don't skimp on the meat! I would definitely come back. Probably my top banh mi place now in Houston! Small mom and pop shop place and they were sweet and nice. Came back and tried their combination cold cut (thap cam) and it's the best one in Houston! Worth the drive. Next time I'm going to try their roasted pork banh mi (which I think they sell on the weekends only? Be sure to call ahead)

Banh Mi here are the best! They don't skimp out on the meat! My wife and I always get the banh mi combination and it NEVER misses! The bread is also baked fresh every day and it has the perfect fluffiness and it's not too hard and too crunchy. And the owners are always so friendly and remember a lot of their returning customers

hidden gem!! the owners were so nice. the grilled beef banh mi was super good & the spring rolls were a really good size (compared to ones i've had from other places). the passionfruit tea was super fresh as well and you can tell they use real passionfruit for it. inside was really clean & the chairs have their branding on it too so it's very cute. the wife recommended us to get the combination banh mi next time so we will definitely be back again :)

Absolutely adore this place!! Their banh mis are always fresh and delicious. Their house made pate and butter are top notch and they are always generous with their meat. The couple who owns the place are always so nice and welcoming and you can tell they care a lot about their business. This is truly a family business that I love to support and will keep coming back!

Breads smell good. A lot of stuffing. Highly recommend. They have fresh soy bean milk.

Cold combination sandwich was soooooo good and they were generous on the house made pate and butter!! The meatball banh mi is super juice and overstuffed as well. The couple that owns the business is was so welcoming and friendly. Love supporting our small businesses! Highly recommend. I will definitely be back.

Very good place if you're looking for some Vietnamese sandwiches and the owners are so nice. Clean ! And very tasty

Nice owners, fresh/ tasty sandwiches, and clean/cute ambience. Overall a great value!

I love this place the ambiance is comforting and open. The service feels like you a part of their family I love it here ! The food is so amazing especially the boba and their banh mi

The best banh mi in the area! Fresh and made daily! The vermicelli is also very good!

if you're not getting your banh mi's from this place then what are you doing!? i came by the shop again today to pick up some sandwiches and this time a man was at the counter. he was just as kind as the lady that served me last time and the sandwiches are still the best! the only downside is the price, i do feel like it's a tad bit expensive but the flavor and the owners make up for it. the restaurant was also still very clean and spacious.

Those Ban Mi are off the hook. Great flavor and crunch. The pate they use as a base gives the ban mi a great flavor twist and ask for Nuoc Cham, it's a dipping sauce that just makes everything better!

OMG , fresh baked bread and fresh ingredients, the food tasted great. I took a bite and was in foodgasm heaven. I'm a pretty big guy and one sandwich was enough for me. I will be back.

Recently moved nearby and discovered this hidden Banh Mi mom & pop shop! The auntie there is so so sweet as it's just her and her husband working to serve these delicious banh mi. The price is pretty fair for the amount of food they put into the Banh Mi. There's also a good ratio of pate and butter in each bite! I love supporting local businesses (it was super quiet when I went to grab these and the auntie was super happy to see me and carried a convo with me).

Grilled beef and classic cold cut were both legit and delish. No shortcuts. If anything, they go above and beyond. Came by a little later than expected for my sandwich. They did not load everything as to not impact the banh mi prematurely. It's the little things. They want you to leave satisfied.

Saw people post on FB about this place, so since I was in the area, I had to give it a try. It is a decent size place, with plenty of room to sit. I'm not sure how long they have been open, but everything looks pretty new. The first thing that might stand out when looking at the menu is the price, but I will give my take on it in the end. The menu is fairly simple, offering up banh mi, rice plates, noodle bowls and teas. Since they are known for their banh mi, I got the combination banh mi and the xiu mai (meatball). Both sandwiches were packed with meat, so much that when you bite into them, it is pushing out the other end. Flavor and taste for both were spot on. There are a lot of OG banh mi shops in Houston and if this place was on Bellaire, it could definitely hang with the best of them. The owners are super friendly. Auntie did not recognize me, so she asked if it was my first time and where did I hear about them. She was so happy to see that people from all over Houston was coming by to try her banh mi. When I left, she wished me well and hope to see me again. Back to pricing. $6.95 for a banh mi is not what most people are used to, when they are buying on Bellaire. However, this is not on Bellaire, this is on the Northside on Veterans Memorial. There are other factors that come into play also, but if you want a damn good banh mi and you are near Beltway 8 and Veterans Memorial, stop by and support the business. Definitely one of my top spots for the area and even in general. I will definitely stop by again when I am in the area or maybe even when I am not. All the best to auntie and uncle!

Amazing Banh Mi chicken sandwich. Perfect in every way. Fresh vegetables. Delicious mango tea.

Best banh mi and service!! The sweetest owners who remembers and caters to my special orders!!! Love them!!

Hands down best dac biet sandwich in Houston, the pate and butter spread on it is amazing. The grilled pork sandwich also great and comes with pate as well. The owner is a very sweet lady as well. This will be my new go to place for sandwiches.

Finally had a chance to try this place since the last time I came they were sold out due to all the rave reviews on social media. It's rare to find a place that gives you a good amount of meat and it didn't disappoint! The bread is baked fresh daily.. so soft and the banh mi was so good! One of the best in town! Owner was so friendly and nice too. A must try for sure!!

Hidden gem. One of the best banh mi in Houston. Family-owned and they are really nice.

Food is great! The service was excellent. The ambiance was nice. I ordered their number 2 (grilled meat), sticky rice, and Vietnamese coffee. Iv tried many places on the same street but this place make the best vietnamese sandwiches. Highly recommend and the staff are super friendly

Better than my old go-to's (houston bao/ Nguyen ngoc). The sammies are loaded. The lady making them was super friendly. Would come back again. Got the meatball and combination. Love it when they ooze out with butter and pate.

We are in town and decided to try some banh mi! The staff are so so so friendly! We had the #1,and it was so delicious! Fluffy crispy baguette, a big portion of meat, and omg they do not skimp on the pate, mayo and veggies! Probably the best we've had by far! We plan on dropping by one more time before we leave TX!

Super friendly business owners serving fresh baguettes. Today we tried 3 different kinds and enjoyed them all in their own ways. One minor minus was she forgot to pack our jalapeños. Current promo is b5g1, so it's about $35 for 6 loaded sandwiches. They also offer other Vietnamese food and specialize in dairy free boba drinks. Their breads are made fresh in house. Crispy on the outside but won't cut your gums. Fluffy on the inside to soak up all the delicious butter aioli and pate. For me her pate spread is a bit more on the savory side for my taste. You can request easy spread. All the meats were flavorful and tender. Pickles veggies and cilantro were all fresh. I'm glad to have a new favorite spot for the north side of town. Will definitely return to try their other menu items.

Amazing golden gem spot to go to for lunch. I am surprised that not a lot of people know this place. If only I lived 30 min closer I would definitely go everyday, but from time to time I'd make the drive for it. The meats and how tightly neatly wrapped and with a lot of the toppings in the sandwich it's worth compare to other Banh Mi places.

Banh mi is solid for north houston! I recommend this banh mi shop if you are in the area. The service was quick too.

Some of the best banh mi I've had by far. The place is cute, and the owners are very sweet and accomodating. Will definitely be back.

Yum!! the banh mi was absolutely delicious...just the bread alone was phenomenal.. a must try!

The customer service is AMAZING!! The owner, Kim, treats her customers like family. The pork bánh mì was delicious. I was pleasantly surprised. Bánh mì is not my favorite Viêt dish mostly due to the Patê, but Kim's Patê is special ! I will definitely return. Also, this spot is very clean.

Best tasting banh mi! They do sticky rice on weekends and house made French bread. While I was there, at least 20 orders from area restaurants came in to buy their bread. Legit y'all!

I came across this shop from another reviewer on facebook and man this place did not disappoint. Sandwich was stuff and was delicious. The pate and butter is probably the best I had in Houston. Owners are very sweet and kind. You can tell they made this sandwich with

Amazing and friendly environment! Makes there baguette daily! Highly recommend coming here

Great banh mi place. Me and my mom would always stop by this spot when we are craving banh mi. The husband and wife that works here are super nice.

Me and my friend went to study there and the service was great we felt very welcomed the food and drinks where great definitely zero complaints, they have amazing music taste, it's very cozy and cute as well.

The best banh mi you will find in the area! The owner is very nice and the food is delicious. Great bread, good option of meats and the grilled meats are delicious. The banh mi comes much more packed than most places. Veggies are fresh, cafe su da was good. Definitely check this spot out, the owners is extremely nice and has great recommendations!
