Lu's Sandwiches

We tried the avacado, mango, strawberry and Thai tea with boba drinks. Thai tea was good (4/5), avocado smoothie with boba(4/5), strawberry smoothie no boba(3.5/5).

Went here in September 2024. Have since been to Vietnam and Lu’s is still my favorite Banh Mi to date. Second to none, must-try if ever in Minneapolis.

I didn’t realize there was a kiosk to the right when you enter so I ordered with the staff. They were very sweet and even gave us red envelopes since it was just recently Lunar New Year. Their egg rolls are always nice and crispy. The banh mi was good but there were often huge chunks of cilantro and jalapeños in it. The fish sauce for the bowl somehow tasted minty but was otherwise very clean/ refreshing and was what we were looking for

The Grilled beef and mango smoothie were delicious. Service was quick and the store was really clean. My only complaint is the jalapeño slices are cut a bit too thick for my liking but otherwise 10/10, would recommend.

we were near the University of Minnesota and were looking for something to eat and online recommendations suggested Lus sandwich so decided to check it out. they are vietnamese based but have an open concept similar to chipotle so you can modify your meal to your preference we got the spring rolls with curry tofu and the curry tofu banh mi. we have had both before at other vietnamese places and for me they were better at Lus because the tofu had flavor and spice and that added flavor to the entire meal. was it traditional, no but it was tasty. portion size was good and service was average

Great flavor, portion, and price on the sandwiches. I get the grilled pork with everything but the pâté. Spicy sause is actually spicy. Vietnamese iced coffee is killer and avocado smoothies can’t be found anywhere else nearby.

Worst service I have ever experienced. they completely messed up my order, I ordered through the screen and they forgot to put mayo on it, I told them about that and she fixed it as if she doing me a favour. Next thing is the napkins that they give 1. Even if you ask for more they give you 1 more. Long story short, food is good, service is as bad as you can imagine

Stopped in to Lu’s U of M location to chat about their food challenge. Found out you have to call ahead or email them to make a reservation but I was determined to not leave empty handed. I ordered a small pan fried chicken sandwich with a small Thai iced coffee. These sandwiches are amazing and they’re very addicting. I’m almost tempted to go back and get another!
