"This bakery makes custom cakes—but you’re really here for the stellar bánh mì. Tony’s lemongrass fish version is an outstanding baguette of flaky, fragrant, dry-fried fish that only softens slightly on contact with the custardy egg-forward mayo. And it’s a sandwich that we want for lunch daily. The cold cut option is also excellent, complete with sliced ham and charred pork, all stacked to the perfect thickness with crunchy pickled vegetables and shaved red onion for a little kick." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
"If you’re in the mood for a bánh mì and have the power to order yours filled with fresh seafood, that’s even better for the whole water motif. We highly endorse the dry-fried lemongrass fish bánh mì from Tony’s. It’s an outstanding baguette stuffed with flaky, fragrant fish that only softens slightly on contact with the custardy egg-forward mayo. And if you’re able to bring glass on board, pair it with some sparkling wine." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
"You could easily lose track of time at Tony's, searching through all the incredible food they make daily. There are fluffy pandan waffles, sticky chicken wings, and a lemongrass fish bánh mì that’s one of Seattle’s best sandwiches. But it’s also where Southend folks go for major orders in life. You might see people picking up durian cakes for a christening or hauling out 30 trays of mango salad and fried rice to feed a big party. This bakery and deli is a true community hub—excellent bánh mì is just the cherry on top." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley, gabe guarente
"One of many good Vietnamese restaurants near Othello Station, Tony’s Bakery offers Vietnamese deli items, entree-and-rice boxes, and more. It even bakes its own bread for banh mi. While the dac biet (house special) banh mi is popular, insiders order banh mi ca xa ot, with battered and fried basa fish (a type of catfish) and a smear of garlic-chive aioli." - Jay Friedman
"This Hillman City bakery specializes in bánh mì and custom cakes. Though, as much as we love licking whipped frosting off of Disney princess figurines, you’re really here for a stellar seafood sandwich featuring Tony’s lemongrass fish. It’s an outstanding baguette of flaky, fragrant, dry-fried fish that only softens slightly on contact with the custardy egg-forward mayo. And it’s a sandwich that we want for lunch daily." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
