The best Vietnamese banh my in CA so far. The bread is authentic and so good. The staffs are friendly and the store is nice and clean. Great price for dessert and small bite dish too.

Delicious, huge banh mi! We got the lomo saltado and pork belly and saltado was the favorite. The veggie spring rolls were also tasty and fresh. They bake their bread in-house and it is amazing. The Thai iced tea was not too sweet. Just how I like it. Thank you for the friendly service, too. We will be back.

The quality of the offerings at this establishment is consistently impressive. The sandwiches are generously sized, making them perfect for sharing between two people. Each bite of the sandwich is filled with rich flavors, showcasing a thoughtful combination of ingredients that truly enhances the overall taste experience.

I’ve been here once before for the crispy pork belly banh mi. I liked it, but wasn’t a fan of that creamy sauce in it. I like my banh mi dry… no sauce or soggy bread (that’s my pet peeve). This time I tried the grilled pork banh mi, nem and banh bao and their Vietnamese milk coffee. A few things about other reviewers commenting- I agree the pickled veggies could be more pickled but this didn’t bother me. Also, the Vietnamese coffee isn’t the traditional kind but it’s because it’s a “milk tea”. This was fine with me- obviously more mild than Lee’s or Da Vien so if you’re looking for that crack feeling you should get it there LOL. You get a lot of bang for your buck here. The banh mi is made fresh and it shows. It’s perfect. I feel like all their food/ingredients taste fresh… which is refreshing compared to other places. I also appreciate their variety of food and drinks. You can get your Vietnamese food fix without having to go to a hole in the wall or restaurant- it’s quick easy and delish! The area specifically, I didn’t find any problems with it. Some mentioned it being in a not so nice area… my only complaint would be that I wish it had a drive thru… for convenience. I’ll definitely be back! It won’t be my last time here. Next on my list is to try their banh mi Dac biet and maybe another dish- and their pineapple drink!

We have been wanting to try them for so long. We finally did when our daughter’s school had lunch with love ones so we needed to get take out. It was so delicious!!! Everything we had ordered had delicious flavors. Favorite was the crispy pork roll but all the rest was also as delicious! It was so good we had it the next day too lol we’re so happy we finally tried them. They did not disappoint. They reminded us of our favorite to go spot in NYC Saiguette in Upper West Side. Thank you so much for the delicious food! This will definitely be our go to spot when we’re staying in Cali.

I tried their new Fish Sauce Fried Chicken Banh Mi! You can't see it under the mountain of veggies, but there is a lot of delicious fried chicken in this sandwich. It is umami, savory, sweet, fatty, and is perfectly cut by the fresh veggies and pickles. Their baguettes are textbook-- crispy on the outside, chewy and fluffy on the inside with strong flavors of butter and yeast.  Everyone in Long Beach has sung their praises about Pickle for a long time, and it is all well deserved. Come check them out!

Food: 4/5 Service: 4.5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 My co worker recommended this place for fusion Banh Mi so I decided to give it a try. There was plenty of parking and the place is easy to find. Greeted by friendly stuff and recommended me few options, 1-The classic (cold cut), 2-Grill Pork, and 3- Crispy pork belly. I went with crispy pork belly since it's new and fusion. Price is a little higher because pork belly is expensive. Had to wait a little bit because they are preparing it fresh. I would imagine the wait will be long when you come during busy time. The sandwich did not have carrot which is usual ingredient in authentic banh mi. I don't really like the Mayo they used in the sandwich I don't know if they use the same Mayo in all of their Banh Mi. I give 4 stars for freshly made, great stuff and delicious crispy pork. I have to try their classic bbq pork to properly rate their Banh Mi. I will be back.

So I don't really like Banh Mi but one day I was re collecting this sandwich my moms friend bought me when I was younger and was craving it! When I looked on yelp and saw this spot I knew it was what I wanted, got the classic and maybe went too fast on my tasting adventure but it was pretty good! I did take out the bacon or whatever the red meat was but everything else was tasty! Service was quick but it was pretty busy! I also got a Thai tea and it was good but looked very orange? lol it was good though

The banh mi from Pickle Banh Mi are really nice. You get a pretty flaky baguette and nice acidity from the pickles. Today, I opted to get their chargrilled pork (thit nuong), which was delicious. I'd definitely order it again. My wife really wanted some spring rolls, so we got the standard pork and shrimp spring roll and a pork belly spring roll. I think their spring rolls are definitely some of the best in the area. Like Brodard, they have the fried egg roll wrappers in the spring roll. Their nuoc mam sauce is ok, but this is a solid spring roll! Pickle Banh Mi is a great addition to Long Beach and it definitely is a great spot for some banh mi and spring rolls!

It's really not a surprise that Pickle Banh Mi (in particular this location) ends up on so many end-of-the-year lists. I've been going to this particular spot for sandwiches since a kid, before it was Pickle Banh Mi--it's been a handful of different Banh Mi places since the original closed down, which was a community favorite, but glad to see such a great shop finally sticking around at this location. It really does feel like it's part of the Cambodia Town community on Anaheim. That being said, I finally got a chance to try their Lomo Saltado Banh Mi--a really interesting concept of a modern fusion sandwich. It was filled with a great Lomo Saltado flavor, a nice mix of sauce, steak, fries, and bell peppers with your usual Banh Mi toppings. It really did feel packed as a sandwich (but it is messy, so just keep that in mind!) I'll never forget the first time I had Lomo Saltado. It was at another Vietnamese restaurant when I had a free weekday. I took my parents who were not quite sure of what to think of it at first. However, as soon as my mom ate it with some rice, she understood the hype. I'll never forget that day not because of the Lomo Saltado, but because we picked the largest mango we've ever seen from our tree that day. It was bigger than my head! It fed us enough mango for a week. Anyways, the Lomo Saltado Banh Mi brought me back to that great day. So, I'd definitely be back here to try their other sandwiches. Their menu is quite big so there's plenty of things to try here and they all look great!

I'm here probably every other week...or rather, I have a banh mi from here every other week. If I'm not stopping by, then it is my mom who stops by here for me to pick up some banh mi. Whenever my mom walks in the door and her usual server is at the register, they already know what she'll ask and just punches in her order, so I guess I can say my mom is a regular (and I am by extension!) I've never had a bad manh mi from here. My typical order is a #1 Combo with extra meat and extra jalapeno. I've also tried #4, and #12, and they are also super delicious. #4 is the BBQ pork, and #12 is the crispy pork belly. The spring rolls are also freshly made and super delicious. I would recommend the pork sausage spring roll (since that one is my favorite), but the others are also good too! The sausage is freshly grilled, and it has a bit sweet and salty taste to it. It pairs well with the nice crispy crunch you get from the fried egg roll wrappers. However, if you don't like pork sausages, then the pork belly and the pork+shrimp spring rolls are also good choices. The spring rolls are filling but don't feel too heavy, so if you aren't too hungry and just want a quick bite, then the spring rolls are worth a try! Usually, I take everything to go, but there is some indoor seating. However, if you go during the busy lunchtime, you may not have anywhere to sit as the shop is a bit small. I would also say that the parking lot is also small, so you may not find parking if it is busy. I'd definitely say that if you are in the area, it is worth stopping by!

Still my favorite Banh Mi spot in So Cal. Fresh bread, crunchy on the outside, fluffy on the inside. Crisp, fresh vegetables. Savory pate and cold cuts. Proportions and textures are perfectly balanced. Fast and friendly service. Great prices. I have no negatives about this place.

This was so easy to find and a great spot to stop at for lunch. I placed an order online and it was ready as expected. I ordered the shrimp and pork rolls, the grilled pork banh Mi, and thai tea. It was so fresh and light, and it was a perfect lunch. The sauce was perfectly seasoned too. The meat and shrimp were cooked well too. I enjoyed the food. I also appreciated the friendly service when I arrived. It was clean and open. It was very welcoming upon entering. It also had plenty of parking.

Great banh mi spot to take to go or eat inside. We checked out Pickle banh mi after going to the Long Beach vintage market. There's parking in the plaza, service is friendly and quick, and prices are super reasonable at $8-10 per banh mi for a huge portion. we got the grilled pork banh mi and I saved half of mine for another meal. The bread was fresh with a crispy outside and fluffy inside We'll be back to try the appetizers, hot food, and drinks next time!

$10 for a huge sandwich, yes please! I drive by multiple times a day, and the day finally came to break down and try it. Omg, 5* all the way. Small parking lot shared with other businesses is the only downside. For some reason, I thought this was mostly a take out spot. It was actually much bigger of a restaurant and has a decent amount of seating. I chose takeout and once I paid for my order, I was directed to a waiting area with phone chargers. Bonus points!!! As a 1st timer, the menu was a little overwhelming. Luckily, I just asked the gentleman helping me what I should try 1st and pork belly was suggested. Perfect suggestion! Can't wait to return and explore more of the menu.

The good: My neighbor recommended this bánh mi place to me and was kind enough to buy a few of their items for my to try. Their paper wraps for their sandwiches were trendy and convenient because they were a sleeve rather than a wrap. So, you could eat it out of the sleeve and have it all be contained. Their sandwiches are huge! This was probably the biggest banh mi I've had. I had the nem nuong rolls and really enjoyed these. The proportion of nem and vegetables were great and the Vietnamese herbs added a refreshing flavor. I tried the thit nguoi banh mi and the pork belly. I liked how the nem were cut into rectangular shapes and how nicely wrapped they were. The dipping sauce was also nice and I enjoyed it more than Brodard's viscous orange sauce. The bad: I wish the pickled vegetables were more sour. The baguette was good but not as light, airy and crispy as other banh mi baguettes I've had. The interesting: Don't confuse this with Mr. Pickles sandwich shop (non-Vietnamese sandwiches).

After trying more and more banh mi spots, Pickle Banh Mi tops them all off. The flavor and quality is more unique and their bread is so fresh. As everyone knows, the bread makes or breaks a sandwich and I love the bread here. Their #12 Crispy Pork Belly Banh Mi is amazing, the pork has crispy skin and the pork is soft and melts in your mouth. They cook and slice this pork daily! After trying this sandwich, I don't think I can try another one. When I first came here, I didn't know what to order but Sean and My were very friendly explaining the menu items. Even if your not in the mood for a sandwich they have small bites, coffee, milk tea, rice plates and more!

Stopped by to grab lunch today after seeing recommendations on Facebook and was not disappointed. We ordered.. #1 Combination bahn mi, the baguette was tasty. The bread didn't overwhelm the sandwich and had the right amount of crisp. they didn't skimp on the meat. The pate was mild in my opinion, I am used to stronger tasting pate. Overall very yummy sandwhich #16 filet mingon lomo saltado bahn mi , boyfriend said the meat was delicious and the sauce it was paired with perfect in the sandwich Also order the Pork spring rolls and nem chua and both yummy. We ordered to go , but there is a small dining area to eat inside. For a Sunday the wait to get our food after paying wasn't bad and there were lots of customers coming and going. All staff members were very friendly and yes would definitely go back .

I really wanted to love this place. Unfortunately the food was just alright. I have tried many Bang Mi and honestly this was just mid. I ordered the crispy pork spring roll and the chow mein noodles. Everything was alright. And the price was pretty expensive. Compared to other spots that are similar. I think I will go to Westminster or GG for some Vietnamese food.

I have always wanted to try a bahn mi I saw a few people eating them on TikTok and Instagram and wanted to see what those flavors would be like. Pickled Bahn Mi is located on a busy street and has a full parking lot the area is in the hood where some people tend to linger and mind their own business. The restaurant is clean and relaxed kinda mom and popish and as a new person trying to decide what to order the young man at the register wasn't very helpful and I ended up ordering a milk tea I didn't like despite describing what tea I prefer. I decided on a grilled crispy Pork Bahn Mi on a crispy baguette a small amount of crispy pork pate was extra they layered on crisp lettuce sliced cucumbers jalapeno peppers cilantro and pickled carrots. Crispy Pork Bahn Mi I took a bite and the bread was absolutely delicious the pork was tasty seasoned well with crispy ends the pate was good and I like pate but just not warmed up -- the veggies were nice and added freshness to the Bahn Mi the jalapeno provide some heat and that was very nice I would order it again without pate it's tasty and needs a bit more meat. 8/10 Tips. Ordering my pate on the side will be my next option that way it isn't warmed up I'll add it to my sandwich after it cools down. Thai Milk Tea Thai milk tea lightly sweetened the color was an odd orange color possibly turmeric I didn't care for the flavor of the milk tea it was a strong no. 7/10 intersection just not my style. My thoughts. I will try another order of tea but ask for mine to be milky sweet and turmeric free. Coconut jello It smelled (herbal I think) but it looked ok I don't fault the people who made it and gave it 10/10 to be fair. This is my first experience trying Bahn Mi and I like to be respectful of another cultures food it's something my palate is not used too but I'm game in time I'll try more food and another Bahn Mi. The vibe. This restaurant has good reviews and was filled with people constantly ordering Bahn Mi this is an amazing extremely popular place filled with loyal customers who constantly greeted the young man at the restaurant counter. Give it a try and go see Pickle Bahn Mi for yourself .. Just me Shawn C.

FRESH The spring rolls are left on the counter so I feared they would be stale or of mid quality. But they were crunchy and fresh. Comparable to brodards on a budget. The filet mignon #16. Basically a Vietnamese Philly cheesesteak. Lots of peppers, some sections are extra spicy and some sections of the sandwich soaked in meat juice. None of these are a problem for me. Worth the money. The only thing about this place is the location. It's right by a 711 or liquor store .I had a guy follow me for money when I arrived, then when I left. Not their fault but man it's annoying when you're just trying to get a quick bite.

Came in on a Sunday afternoon for a banh mi and some coffee. Service was quick and got my food within 5-10 minutes of ordering. I got the lemongrass beef banh mi, a Vietnamese iced coffee and one pork egg roll. Purchased all for less than $15. The banh mi was delicious, bread was toasty/crunchy on the outside but soft on the inside with a buttery flavor. The beef was flavorful and I loved all the veggies on top. Coffee was perfect, not too sweet and a great strong coffee kick and flavor. The egg roll was a nice "appetizer" to the meal. Rich and savory. Overall I highly recommend. Priced very well and everything was tasty! Need to go back to try the rice bowls and spring rolls.

Best Banh Mi I've had in the South Bay. Many shops are increasing prices and decreasing their portions, BUT NOT PICKLE BANH MI. Excellent deal and you get a HUGE Banh Mi sandwich compared to other places. It was my 1st time so I tried quite a few Banh Mi sandwiches including the classic combo, crispy pork belly, bbq pork, lemongrass beef, and crispy pork belly spring rolls. I wasn't a fan of the spring roll here so I wouldn't get it again personally, but I really enjoyed the banh mi and will definitely keep coming back here for it! Bread was not super hard which was a plus! Best fresh, but it was tasty to heat it up in the oven later as well!

Banh mi is tasty, but holy cow that bread so super crunchy/hard! It's been 2 days since I've had it and the roof of my mouth still hurts. Sadly because of this reason, I won't be returning.

This place used to be so many things before it was Pickle Banh Mi. I'm glad I can still recognize some familiar faces with the staff because they are very nice people. They now specialize in sandwiches as well as other plates of food. I tried the Filet Lomo Saltado w/ red rice and it was good. The meat was flavorful and the portion size was big. The side sauce was the perfect topping. I also tried the Passion Fruit Tea w/ boba and it was refreshing. The boba was my favorite part and I would definitely add it to other drinks. The inside has some seating and there is a restroom for customers. I took my order to-go and I noticed that they don't add ice to your drinks until you get there which is a good idea. There is a shared parking with the other establishments. I will definitely come back to try their other food options.

Yup. Came back today to try to get my order right this time. (Mind you the first time was fantastic, but not what I usually order.) and the service was just as great as was the food this turn around!! Anyway.. the pork belly bahn mi was everything we had hoped for and more. The bread had just the perfect amount of crunchiness to it. In fact Ratatouille would even approve Great service at a local Long Beach spot that is clean , offers fresh foods that are made to order and has inside seating to keep you out of the heat (needed especially these days). So, if you're in the area or driving through, support your local business owners at Pickle Bahn Mi. Guarantee you, you will enjoy every bite! Thanks Pickle Bahn Mi!

Came in this morning and was greeted by Ms. Sally and she is THAT GIRL! She is so respectful and has such great energy. She suggested that the next time I come in, I should try the beef stew with bread, which I have been eying, and I am going to take her advice. I'm going to bring my family here as well. Thank you Ms. Sally for being so helpful. I will be coming back, because of you! 5-star experience from Ms. Sally!

Third/ Fourth or fourth visit so far. You get the bang for your buck! This location is tucked away in small shopping plaza near a bend in the roads. The ambience is cafe style where you order up front and find your own seat -- much like Lee's. Their menu is extensive and has a number of classic Vietnamese items. One choice that popped out to me was the Lomo Saltado item--- one of my favorite Peruvian dishes. Service is 20/10 ! The main guy that works there was really nice to me and a friend on our first visit. He gave us extra complimentary items on the house and chatted with us about business. They seem to get a lot of online orders. I'd definitely to go back when i'm craving a filling meal.

If you haven't been here.. you are missing out! Very clean looking inside. Once arrived, you are greeted by the friendly cashier behind the counter. He will gladly answer any questions you have about the menu. I ordered the combo sandwich and their popular deep fried pork belly sandwich. IMO, u have to eat the pork belly sandwich fresh, on the spot to enjoy the full experience of the sandwich. I only went for their sandwiches but after seeing their full menu, you better believe I'll be back ! Also, my brother in law mentioned that they have the best kaw in town! So I'll definitely have to try that next time.

First time ever even trying Vietnamese food but was randomly craving a Bahn Mi. By default it's the best one I've ever had but this was really delicious. The fresh veggies kept things light, the fresh jalapeños added a pleasant kick, the bread was crusty goodness, and the pork belly was tender and flavor. My favorite bites were the pork heavy bites. Very nice sweetness in the marinade or from a sauce that was added. I added a couple other items just to round out the meal. The steamed bun was solid, especially once you reached the meat/etc part. And the pork egg rolls are excellent. Could've eaten 12 of them...

Pickle Banh Mi has a modern and clean ambience with a cozy seating area inside, perfect for small parties. Though the parking lot is small, I had no issues finding a spot. A nice touch is their courtesy phone charging stations in the waiting area. I ordered the crispy pork belly banh mi and the passion fruit tea with lychee jelly. The sandwich was incredibly delicious, well-balanced, and had the most satisfying crunch! The tea was refreshing and tasty. The staff were professional and quick, adding to the overall great experience. I look forward to returning and trying more items on their menu!

Huge, delicious sandwiches full of meat and veggies. Wifey and I share them, and it's plenty. They also have a variety of noodle and rice dishes which Youngest orders, and they're good too. Prices for what you get are very fair. Service is friendly after a short wait in a fast moving order line. You might wait a few for your food, but you know it's fresh. There are always blue collar workers there chowing down, and IMHO that's almost always a sign that the food is delicious, plentiful, and a value. Hmmm. This might be lunch today...

This is based on the Vietnamese coffee and fresh hot meat bun. I did not eat the sandwich because I had one at Lee's sandwich prior but wanted to try their coffee here. Rolled up to the parking lot and it is a very small lot. Good luck finding a spot. The store was packed with a never ending line. Only a few tables to sit at. Steamed Meet bun- so fresh, hot and soft. Perfect amount of meat, egg and sausage to bun ratio. Perfect flavor. I would come back to try the others, but they only had the originals left on the tray at the front desk. I think it is pretty cool that they have rice plates to go with all of the different type of meats if you don't want a sandwich. Vietnamese coffee- it doesn't taste Ike the traditional Vietnamese coffee. I think it is the type of beans they use. It tastes different. More floral I would say. It might not be everyone's taste bud. I thought it wasn't bad, but I do prefer non floral tasting beans.

My husband said to me today and mind you he's an American and normally doesn't like eating Viet or Thai-like food regularly, "I think that's the best banh mi I've had." As a Vietnamese-American myself, I have to agree and it's pretty close to the freshness of a sandwich made in Vietnam. Great bread, great fillings. Love the spring rolls and fried rolls. All the people that work the counter are pretty nice. There's always a moderate amount of people inside dining or ordering. The downside is this place is just around the corner from the Salvation Army housing so sometimes there's some interesting characters in the parking lot.

I have been here multiple times and my favorite order is the grilled chicken banh mi at $7.50. It is so tasty and fresh and service is fast and friendly. Place is clean with a couple tables for sitting. The bread comes out super warm and soft and the chicken taste so good. The plaza has a small parking lot. One of the best banh mi I have had. Highly recommend 100%.

Late post on this. Stopped by for work lunch around One-ish. Great time no wait. Had the Pork Belly banh mi. It was sooo good. The pork belly skik was crispy and crunchy and the fatty part salty and yummy. Bread was grea as well. Looking forward to trying some of their other items. Little confused seeing Lomo Saltado in the menu. Peruvian fusion im here for it just feels random.

Food was delicious, prices are super reasonable, portions are huge, and the pickled cucumbers were delicious. Got 2 Banh Mi and 1 spring roll, everything was delicious. Authentic flavors, and loaded with fresh veggies! The owner and service was amazing as well. Will definitely be back!

Yum! Got 2 bánh mì đặc biệt and was glad to have finally found somewhere with a crispy outer baguette with a fluffy interior (normally the places I've been to have had baguettes that are just soft all around). The pate was yummy but there wasn't much,, would've enjoyed if there was more :') Everything was honestly really good taste wise but would've been better with more volume bc it was slightly flat imo. Decent amount of cilantro compared to many other places that only give 2 slivers LOL Clean inside and find and fast service, would def return!

The level of excitement when I finally found a banh mi place in Long Beach..! I used to drive to get my sandwiches at THH in Westminster, but now that Pickle is only a short few minutes away, I can get my banh mi fix whenever I need. Their sandwiches are always fresh and made to order. Their bread is the perfect balance between crispy and soft (yay for not scratching up the roof of my mouth) and the meats are fresh and tender. We've tried the combination banh mi, lemongrass beef, lemongrass pork, and roasted pork. Every sandwich we had were hits and blasts of flavor, but my faves are the combination and roasted pork! There are way other items on their menu aside from banh mi, so I can wait to try that too! Maybe bo kho for my next visit..?

Delicious sandwiches, with reasonable pricing. I would come again. My mom tried their fresh steamed pork bun and it was amazing! I have to be sure to grab some more next time. We came on a Sunday. There was a bit of a wait for our food but it was worth it.

Line was out the door. 4 tables inside for sitting. Fast paced and still delicious. Sandwiches and spring rolls are large and about $8 each

Ok, let me start off by saying that I am never in Long Beach, but for this place? I might have to start making that hour commute. I saw the reviews and looked at the price and figured, ok why not. My hotel was only a mile away from the restaurant, so my friend and I placed an online order and hopped in my car. There's 3 of us and we ordered 7 bahn mi. And that wasn't enough for us. These were delicious! We had the Dac Biet, Lemongrass Beef, and of course the Grilled pork and I can't tell you which I liked more. What I can tell you is that thinking about it now...I want them all. It's not a huge restaurant but it's perfect because they know what the people want and do it amazingly. I can't wait to sit in traffic from LA to this gem because I know the food will be worth it

10/10! If I have time in the morning, I will come here to pick up iced coffee(s), spring roll, and/or a steamed bun that they have on the counter. Love they have an online ordering system! When my work is in the mood for this place, it's easy to make the order online and pick up later. Our go to sandwich is the crispy pork belly. My coworker ordered a fish cake sandwich today. Honestly, sounds kind of odd but my coworker LOVED it. Also, extremely friendly staff!

Happened to be in the area and had a craving for Banh mi sandwiches. So glad to find this place. Yummy Viet food and a Mexican vibe here too. The lady at the counter was really helpful and recommended the Pork Belly and Egg which was savory and delicious. Would come back if we are in the area. Parking in the strip mall lot.

Highly Recommend if in the Long Beach area! Great service, great price, and quick. I order three different Premium Bahn Mi's, all delicious! The fried chicken one was my favorite. The spring rolls were very good, crispy and fresh! The steam buns were also good. Also had to get a Thai Tea and a Vietnamese Coffee. Drinks were perfect! Must get you a sandwich and a drink fosho. Thank you!
