Pickle Banh Mi Co- Long Beach

that viet coffee absolutely floored me, but the bánh mì dragged it from a perfect score. the coffee tasted like a melted caramelised tirmaisu in a cup: indulgently creamy, thick, not too sweet, but generally on the lighter end on actual coffee strength, so not for caffiene chasers ☝️🙂 the combination bánh mì, option 1, was.. meh: very bready, could use more pickled veg, and the meat slices were more of a "polite suggestion of flavour" than the rich-meaty flavours i was expecting. i'm fully hooked on their coffee, but not sure on the bánh mìs.. yet!

Heard good things and saw this spot in many top banh mi places. Can't say it lived up to it. That said - it was still a hit. I have a high standard for this type of sandwich.

I had the vegetarian sandwich. It came with tofu and mushroom too, which seemed to be cooked in curry sauce and was very juicy and tasty! The cashier who took my order was polite and helpful. Looks like a busy place. Even though we ordered from the counter, there's a seating area. Will be back to try more.

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.

Our New Year’s Eve platter of BF and Chk’n Banh-Mi Sandwiches. Very well presented and Fresh…Affordable at that! Very Friendly and kind StaFF. New Year’s 2026😉🫰🏼

Like to thank Sallie and the staff at Pickle Banh Mi Co. For the amazing experience feeling welcomed. And one of the most delicious Bánh Mi Sandwiches in Long Beach. trời ơi 💣🤤

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.

Very fast turnaround time for their drinks. Very sweet and polite crew. Love the food. Try their new fish sauce glazed crispy chicken sandwich!

This is our new go to for Vietnamese food. Love the pork belly bahn mi, chicken fried rice, beef stew, and lomo saltado And our new obsession is the Vietnamese coffees

Being someone who is a fan of banh mis, the grilled pork one from Pickles is definitely one of the best I've ever had. This restaurant puts theirs on a hoagie style bun making it more traditional and savory. Service was quick and easy. I also order 3 other banh mis for friends, the nem nuong they has at the front along with the spring rolls; in the future I would just stick to the banh mis. I also tried their nem chua and it was 7/10. Not as spicy as I would like it.

3rd times a charm! Found a seat. Great sandwich #4 Grilled Pork. Great customer service/ interaction especially when not real busy. The interior is basic Asian sandwich place, but it's pretty clean. Nice place to have a lunch or so ....

Banh Mi was good but I was hooked by their braised pork belly. Pork belly was tender and juicy and the soup was flavorful. Came here for Banh Mi but ended up falling in love with braised pork belly unexpectedly.

Came here and got a lemongrass beef and boba. The food was just okay. Boba tasted like there was something else mixed with it. Wasnt my cup of tea, but I can see why this is popular!

Food 4/5: BBQ pork was delicious. The meat was flavored perfect, nice portion size as well. The pickled carrots and fresh jalapeño wad good but a bit too sour for my liking. Service 4/5: Nice service, relatively quick. Very friendly staff. Ambiance 4/5: Clean, organized. Small location, great for a quick lunch!

Anytime we're in the area, we try to stop by. We've ventured on from the Bahn Mi sandwiches and love to order the Lomo Saltado Rice dish. Make sure you say rice dish. When we forgot, we got the Lomo Saltado Bahn Mi and it's just not the same. Call ahead for faster service and to avoid the wait. There are a few tables, but it's definitely more of a take-out spot. On this visit the Lomo Saltado did have way less steak than previous visits, but it was still delicious.

Pickle Banh Mi is an incredibly popular spot for a reason! The banh mis and spring rolls are incredibly generous portions. This place gets really busy on the weekends - they have very limited seating for how busy they are, but they have a quick turnover of seats as well. I will admit I gelt a little squished waiting for my order, so if you're getting it to go, it might be best to place your order and then do something else to kill 15-20 minutes and come back for your order. It's a casual restaurant, with a high turnover so you order at the cash register and wait for them to call out your number. Bus your table yourself. The banh mi is huge! It had all the flavors you look for in a typical banh mi. I wish I tasted the pork belly a little more, but overall the sandwich was great! Loved the crispy parts on the pork belly and the bread itself was the perfect texture. 8/10 The pork pastry was SO good! They're only $2.48 per pastry. I highly recommend trying it! The crust is perfectly flaky, and the filling is delicious. 9/10 The spring rolls are huge, great value for the price! I had the shrimp and pork spring roll, it was very solid, there was one perfect bite with my favorite herbs as well, when you get the mint, it really sings. The dipping sauce was good, I added the peanuts. 8/10 There is a parking lot, which was pretty full since this is in a little series of shops, but really parking shouldn't be too much of an issue. I will definitely be back to try the lemon grass beef banh mi and the pork sausage spring rolls!

Parking: tight free parking spots. Does get a bit busy so you might have to park outside the plaza and walk Service: order and sit or take out. Mildly enthusiastic workers Food: amazing banh mi. $12 for the crispy pork. Get it. Add the additional meat too. Hopefully they continue being generous. Wish they added a little of some spicy flavor.

The bread is so fresh and crisp with soft intereriors..the sandwiches have lots of meat with the traditional cilantro, peppers, carrots and pickles. Lemongrass beef and pork belly were generous. The spring rolls are humongous and the peanut sauce was perfect fo r dipping them in.

Delicious options. Super fresh bread for the banh mis. Reasonable wait for service. Big portion of fried rice. Egg rolls were fantastic. The dining room is small with seating only for 15. Seems like they do a lot of take out business.

I've eaten here before and was in the area so I called in an order of their thit kho (braised pork). I've gotten this and their banh mi in the past and the thit kho was good so I figured it was a safe option. I think they use fake butter in their banh mi and I'm not a fan of that flavor profile so I didn't care for their banh mi. Ordering over the phone was friendly and quick and pick up was a bit slow but no complaints there. When I got back to the hotel and started eating it, I found a piece of plastic wrap in it so that was very bad. The thit kho was still good and the same flavor as before but no one should have to carefully comb through any food they buy to look for plastic wrap. The parking lot is large and easy.

We were going to the port to the Catalina island and was googling a place to buy the sandwiches and so glad we found this place . Staffs are super friendly and the bánh mì was very good. Price ranges are unbeatable. The bánh mì was $8 but it's huge for sure ít can be share for 2 people. The desserts are very good too. Strongly recommended this place .

What a fantastic sandwich! This thing is huge and it's fairly priced. I get why they added "pickle" in their name because they're very generous with it- I love the crunch with every bite. The sauce was surprisingly sweeter than I expected, but, all the flavors had a wonderful balance. I also appreciate that I can bite into the bread without it crumbling all over my shirt. This usually indicates that the bread is good quality and/or it wasn't overly toasted. This rating is solely on the sandwich. I didn't dine-in because it was too hot inside. I'd recommend taking your food to-go for this place.

Amazing Spring Rolls and Banh Mi sandwiches. Would recommend if you love Vietnamese food. Their shrimp and pork Spring Rolls were packed with veggies and protein, plus savory Thai Peanut Sauce. Their sandwiches are filling - juicy meat and bread is crispy yet soft. Yum!!

Y'all... The reviews and experience definitely lived up to the hype -- the banh mi was absolutely incredible. Service was exceptional. The banh mi was bursting with flavor. Although I usually try to avoid pork, I couldn't resist trying the crispy pork -- it was delicious. The special banh mi was also outstanding. Prices range from $8 for the sandwiches to $10 for the premium options. Vietnamese coffee was just as good. Mom and I rated it 5/5. Restroom available, and there's plenty of parking.

Food: 5/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 4/5 My favorite 1) BBQ pork 2) Crispy pork 3) Cold cut combination 4) Meatballs 5) Lemongrass Alright.... After coming here handful of times. I give this place the crown for best Banh mi I ever had but you have to sit down and eat there right away. I was torn between BBQ Pork and crispy pork to give number one spot. At the end I just have to factor in the fact that crispy pork is few dollars more, I just bump it down to 2. It will be great if I can make half and half. That will be perfect solution to taste everything. I wish they open another store in SGV.

Any banh mi spot that lets you add fried eggs to any banh mi is at least solid in my books. I was looking for a good banh mi spot that's closer to the South Bay than Westminster. I got the tumeric fish and the grilled pork with 2 fried eggs added in on separate days. Tumeric Fish Banh Mi: This was my first time having a fish banh mi and I loved it. Since it's a premium banh mi, they use pickled slaw instead of the pickled carrots and daikon that I prefer. Grilled Pork w/ 2 fried eggs: I had the fried eggs added in at an extra $2.5. I absolutely loved it. The egg yolk nicely coated the inside. The pork was great. I would have added pate next time.

My favorite place to get a pork banh mi, I've even turned my parents into huge fans. Whenever there's been no meat left out to cook or we just feel too lazy to prepare anything, The Pickle gets us out of a pickle. The sandwiches are a good size and come with your choice of meat, super fresh veggies and a flavorful aioli spread. Be careful with the jalapeños though - sometimes they are super spicy! We tend to share the sandwiches in my home, eating only half. At times, I wish they'd put a bit more meat, but maybe I just need to remember to ask to add extra. I've also tried the iced teas and the spring rolls here. I almost took one star off because the two times I've ordered spring rolls here, they were falling apart while at the same time having pieces that were too tough to bite through or chew, but overall they have been consistently good with everything else. The staff is always helpful. I usually call in my order ahead of time and then pick up quickly. They're pretty fast service and get the line moving whenever there has been a line. I can't recall if there's seating inside the restaurant but it's clean and well lit up. The staff there also do a great job at welcoming those who enter. *These sandwiches also come in clutch for picnics or for taking to the Hollywood Bowl where you can bring your food in. It holds up great to eat an hour or so after picking it up which is a huge plus!*

Tried the banh mi at Pickle & Co and it did not disappoint. The bread was perfectly crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and packed with fresh, flavorful ingredients. Every bite had a great balance of savory, tangy, and crunchy.

It's not easy finding the best banh mi when you've lived in the San Gabriel valley where there's so many options to choose from. Thank you, Pickle, for coming through. Been coming here since they've opened and man, does it satisfy my Vietnamese sandwich fix! I always go for the classic but have tried the chicken, bbq pork, beef. and rice dishes too. It gives me a sense of nostalgia of when I used to go to this spot in Lincoln Heights as a child, the butter and the pate ... drool! The portion of meat is very generous. You can always ask them not to put chili in the sandwich too. Staff are always friendly. I've even placed order over the phone for pickup. Saves me a lot of time, especially when I've got kids in the car. Enjoy!

I ordered crispy pork belly banh mi. It was delicious to the max. The meat is tender with right amount of seasoning and it tastes delicious. The ladies who are working there are nice and friendly with smiles. The orders came out quick after we ordered them. I also had their fried egg roll and it was good with crunchiness and a lot of meat inside. Their grilled pork banh mi is also delicious with tender meats and good seasonings. Their bread tastes freshly baked with soft on the inside and crisp on the outside. This place is clean and well maintained. Highly recommended!

Rainy day, craving something fast-casual but actually good. Pickle Banh Mi Co hit the spot. What They're Known For This spot is a local favorite for no-frills, authentic Vietnamese banh mi with bold flavors and generous fillings. They're especially known for their house-pickled veggies (that crunch + tang ), and I've seen their banh mi pop up on social feeds for being a great value without cutting corners. Parking Shared lot right out front with a few other businesses (including a 7-Eleven). Easy parking, but just a heads-up: there are often unhoused folks near the 7-Eleven. Vibe / Interior Small, a little rough around the edges, and not the cleanest--but very much a "get in, get fed, get happy" kind of place. A few tables (4-5) if you want to eat there, otherwise very to-go friendly. Good For Takeout, quick bites, and anyone looking for authentic Vietnamese food at a reasonable price. Expect ~$10-15 per person for a sandwich. Noticed a lot of people ordering Thai tea--on my list for next time. Order Ordered ahead via the Toast app (super easy). - Lemongrass Beef Banh Mi - 10/10 - Pork Belly Banh Mi - 10/10 Flavor-packed, perfectly balanced, and incredibly satisfying. Service Fast, efficient, and kind. The cashier even offered to wipe down our table before we ate--small gesture, big points.

Consider me a new fan. For $8 you can get a large, fresh sandwich made in minutes that will completely fill you up for hours. Staff was so helpful in answering my questions as to what ingredients came in the banh mi. For my first time I went with the classic/dac biet. I loved the combination of meats, the flavorful paté, crunchy veggies and fresh bread that was perfectly crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. They also serve rice plates, spring rolls and other specialty dishes.

Pickle Banh Mi is the best option for Vietnamese Banh Mi sandwiches and Vietnamese Spring Rolls in Long Beach. Their spring rolls are packed with your meat of choice, herbs, and has a subtle rolled egg roll wrapper on the inside for crispiness. I bought three of their spring rolls on my most recent visit: grilled pork, pork and shrimp, and crispy pork belly. Also don't sleep on the flavor-packed sauces, which were different for each spring roll! My wife's favorite is the pork and shrimp spring roll as it's a classic Vietnamese spring roll with nice balance. I prefer the grilled pork spring roll as I love the flavor of the pork; however, the small amount of crispy bits on the pork belly spring roll is also very good. Their banh mi sandwiches are also very good. If you like grilled pork and pork belly, these are some of the top sellers. I got these meats in the spring rolls, so I opted for their lomo saltado banh mi. In my previous visit, I went with their chargrilled pork banh mi and I think that's that's what I would recommend. The lomo saltado banh mi has a generous amount of filet mignon beef; however, the fries and raw bell pepper and the absence of the key aji pepper sauce makes the sandwich less successful in filling my cravings. Make no mistake. I finished my sandwich and it was good. Overall, I do think their banh mi sandwiches are great because of their house made, flaky breads, because they're packed with delicious meat, and they're generously loaded with veggies and flavor. Pickle Banh Mi also has rice dishes and other appetizers, but I only have two stomachs (if you factor in my wife); however, it gives me more reason to keep coming back. Overall, this shop is a great addition to Long Beach and it is the best option for Banh Mi in our city.

My favorite Banh Mi in Long Beach! Atmosphere: no frills, seats inside. I usually take my sandwiches to go though. Food: All of the banh mi's I've tried have been solid. My favorites are the classic and the crispy pork. The sandwiches are large and filling and the bread is always fresh and crispy but without cutting up the mouth. I am also a big fan of their fresh veggie spring rolls. Service: everyone is always friendly. Most of the folks there are Cambodian so I feel at home whenever I visit lol.

Just found my go to Banh Mi spot! The sandwiches were delicious and a great portion. The service was fast and friendly and there's a good variety of items to choose from without feeling overwhelmed. The seating inside is limited, but sandwiches are great to go also. I also got the Viet Iced Coffee which was really good as well!

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!

Came here for banh mi after our friend recommended it. Our group ordered the pate so (very flaky and crispy), fried chicken banh mi, crispy pork belly, crispy turmeric fish, and lemongrass beef. For drink I ordered the strawberry green tea which was fresh and flavorful. Our food came out quickly and everything tastes great! They do not skimp on their portions, and I loved the fish sauce glaze on my fried chicken. Service was friendly as well. I would definitely come back when I'm in the area.

Had a craving for a sandwich (as I usually do), so had to try this place out. Atmosphere/Ambiance - 4/5 - As with most Banh Mi places, it is not big at all. Most people just order and go. Staff - 4/5 - Not mean, but not friendly. Pretty much the same in most Asian restaurants. Food/Drink - Ordered the following: - Grilled Pork Banh Mi - 5/5 - I honestly never had a terrible grilled pork one, and this one was spot on. Highly recommend. - Pork Belly Banh Mi - 4/5 - I think it was great as well, but there is a $2 upcharge for this one. $10 for this sandwich versus $8 for the regular ones. - Chicken Fried Rice place - 4/5 - Yes, they have rice plates, and this was for the kiddos. I thought it was just okay, but the kids really enjoyed it. If I had my pick, I would have chosen either Lomo Saltado or the Pork Chop plate. Overall, I think it was a really great spot to try out. However, it wasn't super amazing, and since I only come to Cali to visit, I don't know if I would be back as a visitor.

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!

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!

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.

My first impression of this place was that it was really dirty. The dining area was unkempt, with trash on the floor and crumbs on the tables. The glass doors had smudges and fingerprints all over them, and the restroom was filthy. It seems like nobody is assigned to keep the dining area clean. The restaurant was also uncomfortably hot, even with only a few tables. The air felt cooler outside whenever someone opened the door. One positive note was the self-serve iced water station, which was much-needed during this heat wave. Despite the unkempt dining area, I was willing to give the food a shot. I ordered the crispy pork belly banh mi based on a recommendation, but the person taking my order seemed distracted. I asked for a recommendation and told him my order was for here, but he ended up charging me for two sandwiches--the pork belly and the grilled pork--and packed both to go. I had to call a friend to help me eat all that food! It was an expensive and frustrating mistake. Also, be prepared for a "guilt tip" when you pay by card. As for the sandwich, it was worth the mess and the mix-up. The banh mi here is delicious. At around $8-$10, it might seem a little high for some accustomed to lower prices for banh mi, but in this economy, it's still a steal compared to the $15-$25 sandwiches you'll find at other places in LA. The combination of crispy pork belly, fresh pickled vegetables, heat from the chili, and crusty baguette was a flavor explosion. It was more satisfying than any sandwich I recently had from a popular Italian deli in Pasadena. Ultimately, you have to decide if the incredible banh mi is worth dealing with the lack of cleanliness and careless service. It's kind a joke when you see a cluttered restaurant, kids doing homework or staff eating at the dining area or experience cold service, you know the food is going to be great at an Asian restaurant. The food is a definite five stars, but the atmosphere and service bring the rating down. You can always take your sandwich as take away for home, office ... or the beach. It's a gamble on whether the kitchen is cleaner than the dining area.

Recently had the chance to check out Pickle Banh Mi and it was so delicious! Best Banh Mi spot in Long Beach i'd have to say! Friendly customer service and wait was quick. Love that they provide a free charging station for your phones. I got the Lemongrass Beef banh mi + Grilled Pork banh mi & Grilled Pork spring rolls -- everything was delicious and will definitely be coming back!

Yummy bahn mi! I had the Lomo saltado and pork belly bahn mi sandwich and they were both delicious! Will definitely go back!

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.

Tried both the grilled pork and grilled chicken sandwiches and they were delicious!! Fresh French Baguettes loaded with meat and veggies. I also love their garlic mayonnaise spread. Not bad for the price either!

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).

Editing my original review: I had initially rated this 2 stars because of an experience I had while drinking my Jasmine Milk tea with boba. I had experienced sharp pieces of plastic in my drink when drinking, and had no idea how that got in there. I was afraid I would accidentally swallow them and scratch up my throat. Upon pouring out the rest of the drink that I stopped myself from finishing, I inspected the cup and realized the plastic pieces had come from the plastic lid (the straw hole). The pieces that mark the "X" for the hole had broken off into the drink. This is dangerous because many people who order a drink with boba will be puncturing their straws through this hole and may experience the same thing I had. A suggestion to possibly avoid any other occurrences would be to start using a sealer for drinks instead of the plastic lids that could break upon poking the straw through. This may be a safer option and ensure plastic shards don't break off into any other's drinks.

The bánh mì sandwiches from Pickle Bánh Mì are absolutely amazing. Fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced; crispy bread, deliciously seasoned fillings, and just the right amount of pickled crunch. You can tell everything is made with care and quality ingredients. Easily some of the best bánh mì I've had. My go to is the shrimp spring rolls and the chicken bánh mi. Highly recommend!

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 .

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.

Usually great but today my Lomo Saltado banh mi was 95% fries with a few small pieces of steak

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

Parking lot in front. Service was friendly. One bathroom. Ordered the combination banh mi which was crunchy and fresh ingredients. And the milk tea was good on the sweeter side. All in all good to try out!

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!
