Banh Mi Saigon

My husband bought some Bánh mi and 2 rice cakes (banh chung) this morning. When I opened the package, I found visible mold on several of them, making the product completely inedible. This is a serious quality and safety issue for a packaged food item

I went to buy today and I highly suspected that one of the bread has 'mold' on it. (As shown on picture). I really hope I was wrong but I ended up threw half of the Banh away. Business was good in restaurant and I really hope the restaurant doesn't serve us molded bread !

Banh Mi Saigon on Dundas is really delicious. I’ve tried a few items and everything was great so far. • Meatball bánh mì – 8/10, tasty and filling. • Vietnamese sausage bánh mì – 9/10, my favorite, very flavorful. • Grilled pork bánh mì – 8/10, nicely grilled and well seasoned. • Vietnamese coffee – 9/10, strong and perfect with the sandwich. Definitely coming back to try more. Great spot for bánh mì and coffee.

Banh Mi Saigon Bakery delivers great value and flavor. We tried the BBQ pork and Vietnamese sausage banh mi—both were delicious, fresh, and generously filled. The bread was crisp on the outside, soft inside, and the ingredients were well-balanced. Definitely worth it for the quality and price!

It's a very small shop but that's the kind that I love! The sandwiches had very crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside bread, crisp and fresh veggies and herbs and the meatballs were very tasty. It's a great little spot and I'm glad I found it. I'll definitely be going back to try more of them; and when they're only $3.50 to $4 you can afford to do it often!

As a Vietnamese, I can confidently telling you this place has the best Banh Mi all over GTA. You can even easily catch some Vietnamese people coming here to purchase a bunch of Banh Mi to take away since they don’t live in the neighborhood or just visiting Toronto. That’s enough for their reputation.

Big long banh mi subs. If you buy 10, you’ll get one free so it works out to be around $4.50 an assorted banh mi. The meatball sub and the assorted is the same price too so can mix and match if you want. Assorted has four type of cold cuts, pâté and mayo so there’s quite a bit of assorted meats in there. Then there’s parsley, carrots and cucumbers too. Lots for its price! Baguette also tastes good too.

Great quick stop for lunch. Sandwiches are $5-$6 and very tasty. Shop was clean and very friendly . I liked the assorted bahn mi sandwich the best!

One of the good Banh My places in the area. Bread is fresh, toppings and fillings are fresh and they often sell out, so call ahead if you really want to avoid disappointment. They have some Vietnamese sweets and grocery staples, but this is primarily a Bahn Mi Stop for sure. Cash is king here, no credit taken. Avg cost is still around $5 for a sandwich, which surprises non regulars, but those in the know, know that they are just about in the middle of the road cost wise, for the area competition. Well worth it.

Loved this place pre and during pandemic. Prices in pre 2021 were 3.50, now its 5.00 for smaller buns. Greed greed greed. Imo, I wouldnt come back, they were my community's go-to's. Also, they never opened on time (dont listen to google's hours) they lock the doors til approx 1 hr as advertised.

Went here once because, buddy 2 doors down was closed. Bun was stale , and sandwich maker was miserable, go 2 doors down much fresher and buddy always calls me buddy. Wish I could leave him a 5star review, but he's not on yelp

One of the better, if not best Banh Mi places in Mississauga. They're always busy, at any given time or day of the week! Although going on weekends will get you the freshest subs. Their offerings during week are still great, but not always consistently fresh. Their assorted subs are our household go-to! They aren't able to give you anything on the side other than the chilis but you can always ask for extra pate or their butter/mayo on the subs themselves. The assorted subs come with Vietnamese ham, Vietnamese sausage, and Vietnamese bacon. Their "bacon" can be really fatty and not very pleasant to eat if cold; I would ask to sub this out if you're looking for a leaner, healthier option. The a la carte pate (and most likely their other fresh market items) to purchase are supplied by Nguyen Huong. If you are able to make it out to the Nguyen Huong locations, they'll more than likely be cheaper and fresher. They have an ongoing promotion where you can buy 10 subs and get 1 free. Customer service is a very big hit-or-miss. Non-Vietnamese speakers are best off interacting with the cashier, to avoid any miscommunication. If you're placing a big order, triple check prior to leaving the establishment. Unfortunately, two out of three times, I see customers having to dispute their bill during my visits.

If I can rate it 0 or negative I would. I've actually been here twice before because it was recommended by a friend. I enjoyed it so I suggested it to my friend to try the other day. He helped me order a bunch. Their promo is buy 10 get 1 free, all subs at $3.50 each. They accept debit now I believe. I asked my friend to order assorted sub for me with no red fatty meats. They included the fatty meats which is fine. Whatever I can pick it out. I ate half the sub and then I tried to pick out the stuff I didn't like again. I noticed a clear scrunched up sheet stuffed in between the jia. I'm like wtf? What is this? I pull it out and stretched it apart. I thought it was tape lol but it was this HUGE PLASSTIC SHEET. Thankfully I saw it before I started to chew on it lol. Not sure if I would come back to this place anymore... probably not. People are telling me to go back to the store to talk to them but I don't wanna waste my time.

BEST banh mi and viet subs in all of Toronto. What makes them stand out? THE BAGUETTE. It's crunchy, crisp and soft in all the right places and the bread is never stale. Delicious quick and tasty. They also pack that sucker in for extra flavourtown goodness. All their subs regardless of filling is $3.50 across the board. No BS 25 cent and 50 cent difference for the different meats. Always grab a few subs to go every time I make a trip to Mississauga. Would recommend this place

My mom's favourite Banh Mi bakery. I grew up eating from here but never knew it was this location until I asked my mom. The interior looks like the same from as far back as I could remember. The same people are still working the shop. The price have changed from $1 (when I was a kid) to now, $3.50 (now as an adult). It's a little more expensive than the other near by locations but it is worth it. The food still taste the same, with many infused flavours, delicious and I'm drooling just thinking about it. I got the assorted Banh Mi. They use both the lard and the pâté for the spread. They use very thin slices of deli and their vegetables are fresh. I might just have to go back for another one, it's so addicting.

Delicious cheap sandwiches! Placed my order at the counter and the sandwich was already premade and handed to me within seconds. They cut the banh mi in half and put them into separate bags. Very smart of them. This makes it easier to eat and help keep my hands clean! If you can't finish the sandwich, you can always take the other half to go. I had the BBQ pork (#1) for $3.00 and it was definitely worth it. This is a lot cheaper than most banh mi places. I took half my sandwich to go and within a few hours, the bread was no longer fresh. It was as hard as a rock but nothing an oven can't fix. I would recommend finishing the entire sandwich while you're there to avoid losing the fresh taste. Would definitely come back and try the other sandwiches they have

So i ordered 3 bbq pork and 1 chicken....one of the pork spicey for my sister. The spicey sauce they used is made w scotch bonnet peppers so it actually has flavour as well as and spice to it. The pork was seasoned perfectly tasted kind of sweet and super tender. They arent stingy either, good portion of veggie to meat ratio as well. Love the spread they use with the mayo as well. The bread used is definitely baked fresh daily and you can tell. Even being there 30mins before closing the bread was still super soft and nice crisp on the outside. I have absolutely no complaints. Ill definitely be back , I mean 3.50 no tax. Cant go wrong at all. Behind this store is another vietnamese sub place and and pho place , may try those as well to compare.

This is my #1 favourite Vietnamese subs place!! This place is AMAZING!! The workers do an AMAZING job serving delicious and always FRESH subs. You guys are the best and you guys are my #1 place to go for future orders. 5 STAR RATING FOR YOU!! Thank you amazing staff!! Highly recommended!! :)

This is probably one of the best Banh Mi Bakery is Mississauga. Unfortunately the customer service does not hold up to par. They instantly assumes you are Viet if you look anything close to being Asian but whatever. I am usually with someone who is able to speak Vietnamese and they would take over. They have two windows menu but don't be fooled. It is repetitive. Only four different kind of subs. The spread they use is a mixture of the Vietnamese mayo and Pate. If you are allergic to Diary, please state you only want the Pate spread and they will accommodate. The subs are 3.50 a piece and they have a promo if you buy ten, you'll get one for free. They have a bunch of other Vietnamese dishes but not as much as the one downtown - Banh Mi Huong (that place is OG). They take cash and debit.

I came here out of curiosity a few years ago after trying my co workers wanted to get food from a few doors down. I don't speak Vietnamese but they assumed I did which was sort of funny because all I was doing was pointing and nodding, oufff probably one of the better subs I had in the GTA can't say it's the best I had but it's up there! Came back yesterday and i can see now they have learned a few more English words which made ordering effortless and the sandwich still tasted as good as I thought it was. It's a little old and beat up and the service is robotic if you don't know the language but who's really counting on that when the food is bomb

Great ingredients for a sandwich! I've had BBQ pork and shredded jerky, both meats being tasty and fresh. Vietnamese make their baguette more airy which can come out to feel a little "stale and crisp" on the ends for people who are used to a more moist baguette, but this ends up working for this kind of sandwich. They add a generous amount of their pâté based sauce and it works well for it. Not sure why they call themselves a bakery, they're mostly a sandwich shop as far as I can tell. They have English translation on their menu. It can be a little challenging at times communicating what you want, so try to be very simple and clear when ordering. As always, be patient and understanding. 1 sandwich is a great lunch for me, and they're still just as great hours later due to the airiness of the bread, no sogginess! Great for groups as they offer a buy 10, get 1 free deal. For $3/sandwich, it can't be beat.

Wow such an amazing banh sandwich. Only three dollars but cash only and that that includes the tax. Reminds me of my days in Saigon. Actually I was on my way to my favourite barbeque place next-door but this place is definitely worth the detour.

4* - Banh Mi (bread is fresh!) 2* - Slightly Frustrating Service If you get the grandma looking sandwich maker, she does not speak English nor will she provide a receipt for your purchase. (I pointed to the receipt machine and she said, "No receipt!" I don't think she knew how to operate the register.) Normally, I am very good with communicating with people who do not speak English, but this was an admittedly frustrating experience. I ordered 1 - Chicken, 1 - Assorted and she was making 3 sandwiches, so I had to tell her that I only wanted 2 sandwiches - more than once. She barely understood what I meant when I said "Chicken". I almost had to perform Charades for this lady to understand me. So if you're strict Halal/Kosher or vegetarian, I cannot recommend this place as it may be difficult for you to communicate that the specific meat that you want. There's also some kinda mayo-based sauce that looks like there's some kinda minced meat mixed in. Is that pork/beef/chicken? I dunno and I'm sure this lady wouldn't be able to tell you. Don't get me wrong, bread is very lovely, fresh, and it's $3 for a longish banh mi. However, if you have certain dietary concerns or low on patience in dealing with someone who doesn't speak/understand English, I'd steer clear.

This is my go to place for Viet Sandwiches. It used to be very cheap, but now it is getting quite price. In terms of service, It was ok. I wouldn't say that it was amazing, but it wasn't bad at all. Think of it as a Viet fast food place. Pricing was a little bit more expensive than what I thought it would be. I might sound a little bit old, but "back in my day", the subs were $1.25 each. This is why when I arrived, I was surprised by the price. A recommendation that I might give them is to have a menu that is translated into English. I wanted to try other items on the menu, but I have no idea what to order. Everything was in Viet. Finally, the sandwich was great. The bread was very fresh, and the cold cuts were tasty. I got mine spicy, but was a little bit disappointed with the spice level. I thought it wasn't spicy enough. For all you people going in groups, please keep in mind that it is buy 10 get 1 free. I walked out with 11 subs.

One of my favourite authentic Vietnamese sub stores in the GTA. It's very Vietnamese based and I understand why people would struggle if they don't speak Vietnamese. But if you can manage to order a banh mi, I promise you it's worth the struggle. The baguettes are baked daily and has been this way since my parents brought me here when I was still a kid. The mayo/pare mixture is soooo good and although I always get banh mi cha lau instead of the thap cam (assorted) they easily fill my order and they don't skimp out on the fillings either. I also love the variety of Vietnamese snacks they have from banh chuoi hap, banh da lon, and soi. Since I'm based in Hamilton for school there isn't a store where I can buy Vietnamese subs and snacks so when I go to my parents I seem to always hoard back a bunch of food. Honestly for $3 a sub, you can't go wrong!

Really good Banh Mi! I always enjoy their food and they have amazing customer service! Keep up the great work!!!!!!

Great Vietnamese sandwich. Very reasonable price. Filling is like most other Vietnamese sandwich. The baguette is amazing... fresh, soft inside and just enough crispy on the outside. Which make the sandwich so much better.

Really, really, really tasty sandwiches. I was recommended here by a Vietnamese friend so I figured it would be pretty legit. The baguette is so good. Some places the crust is so sharp it rubs the roof of your mouth off. Not here, its crunchy but soft. Innards are tender and chewy. The fillings are about the same as anywhere else though we found the pork to be tastier than the chicken. I also liked that they didn't overload with mayo. Each sandwich was $3.00--a great deal for a snack or quick lunch. I cannot wait to go back and try more!

Take out place to grab Banh Mi. Cheap Vietnamese subs for $3. Not bad! Went in, and had a hard time reading the menu - it was mostly in Vietnamese, with the exception of one item, so I got that (lol). It was what I expected in a viet sub. Cold cuts, some pâté, and tasty tangy carrots and cucumbers. Could've had a bit more tangy zing, but otherwise a good snack for the price! Will come back if I'm in the area and am craving a viet sub but probably wouldn't go out of my way to get it.

Being fluent in Vietnamese, I haven't experienced some of the problems other reviewers have, but nevertheless, my rating still seems to be consistent. I really enjoy the Banh Mi here as they are fresh, and have perfect ratios in terms of the bulk of the Banh Mi itself. Where I deducted one star is due to the inconsistency of their mayo in which I have found to sometimes be a little sour/stronger. Not that big of a deal, but sometimes throws me off a bit. I usually just buy the Assorted Meat (Bánh Mì Thap Cam) but I have discovered a new favourite. I highly recommend the Bánh Mì Patê Bo Chà Bông which translates to Rousong and Pâté according to Wikipedia. It is less filling than the assorted meat, but I've found it to be tastier and less heavy. Also, you can ask for it to be spicy where they add grounded fresh peppers. This will cause some parts of the Banh Mi to be spicier than others so eat with caution! Anyways, I think this is a great place to grab some delicious Banh Mi, but beware that you will have to face a great language barrier, and perhaps some small inconsistencies.

Co workers wanted a taste of Vietnam so I went to get them some banh mi! Unfortunately, this place doesn't get more than 3 stars from me. We ordered the assorted , chicken and pork banh mi. The banh mi looked big while it was being made but once you start eating it, you will realize it's not so big. I guess because it was due to the fact that they put so little meat in it. Yes it was only $ 3.50 per banh mi but incomparison to other banh mi places, this place really skimped out when it comes to the meat. Also, the pork and chicken were very shredded and crumbly not thinly sliced like you would think. All in all, if you want something cheap and something super light, give this a try.

HANDS DOWN BEST VIET SUBS! I get viet subs from a ton of places but this is mostttt definitely the best. They bake the bread fresh and its just the most amazing bread. This is what really makes the sandwich special from other places. It's tender and crispy, not crunchy. I go here for cheap lunches on the weekly! $2.50 woot woot!

I've never had Vietnamese Sub before and was recommended by a Co-worker since I work around the area. It was OUTSTANDING! , a bit of a language barrier with the staff but it seems like the majority of the customers are Vietnamese which means this place must be good. Much better value than the Holy Smokez BBQ place and that condescending rude bald guy and their pretend "Southern" BBQ

Sandwiches were average and had all 3 meats included in the special but was expecting a better baguette bread.

Truly authentic sub with delicious bread. Very busy place so you can be confident that the place is well known and good. I love the bread it is nice and delicately crusty and melt on your mouth soft on the inside. The taste of the condiments set it apart from other sub places

I have traveled all over Asia and Vietnam. Been eating banh mi since I was a child. I'd have to say this is the best place to eat in Canada! very authentic and yummy. Great food great staff and service. I highly recommend this place! www.djcross.ca world traveler... Update! Just came back again tasted their whole menue and I'm in heaven can't get enough of these subs! There so addictive best in the gta! They now have Vietnamese ice coffee which is really yummy for the summer time heat. Deserts see pretty awesome as well! Will be back soon!

Very good viet subs. Fresh buns and vegetables one of the best I've had! No issues with ordering and I'm Canadian and only speak English.

The real Vietnamese sandwich place. No other place will offer you great Vietnamese authentic sandwiches like this place does. Obviously not comparing to Banh Mi Boys as that has a fusion twist

not a bad place. they use fish sauce in the bun. not for everyone. I did feel sick after eating the bun.. not sure if it was related to cleeniness

WORD! A.N's review is the truth. The differenence is the bread they bake. Last Saturday waited in a 45 minute line up, but well worth the wait. You still cannot beat the price for something so delicious (even though they increased by a quarter). Also glad this has not gone mainstream.

The best part is the bread, glass shattering crunchy on the outside & soft on the inside. A little too much of that pate/mayo but otherwise the best out in the west.

This is my favourite place to go for authentic Viet subs. $2.50 per sandwich, what more could you ask for? My favourite is the shredded chicken but their other ones are also really good.

I would have to agree that this place has the best vietnamese subs in the city! The bread is good and not too thick that u would only get the bread and not the goodies inside! So far it's my favorite place to get subs.
