Top Baguette

One of my favorite Banh Mi spots in Westminster. Easy parking, not a crowded lot. Restaurant is pushed in the corner but don’t let it fool you. The food is well worth it! Family owned. You can tell the bread is baked fresh daily. The BBQ beef and lemon grass is solid every time. They take card and cash. Cash is obliviously preferred. Worth a stop in if you’re in the area.

I prefer Carrot & Daikon (sister store?). However, Fri 18 Aug at 12:10 pm for Top Baguette: it was easy parking, only $2 can Monster, and banh mi is fine. They offered to cut the sandwiches in 1/2, so my sister and I split the Dac Biet and the Pork Belly. My sister said the banh mi didn't stand out. I would have to agree. But I'll come back for the $2 Monster and try other items.

First time coming to this place. Ordered the rotisserie chicken bahn mi and added their combo, which included 4 egg rolls, 1 pate chaud and a soda. Total was $7.50. Super reasonably price. The owner was very friendly and nice. The egg roll was very flavorful so was their sandwich. They don’t skimp out on the meat. The pate chaud(first time having thing ever) was soft and flaky.

This place has fresh delicious banh mi for a reasonable price. We also tried their vegetarian and chicken eggrolls, and pate pastry. All were extremely delicious, especially toasted. I’ll be there next week to try their spring rolls.

Located in a small plaza by the corner of Magnolia and Bolsa Ave. Parking is a pain. Lol. You are lucky if you can find one. Inside store looks modern and clean. I ordered 2 type of sandwiches: a grilled beef, a grilled chicken and some Pate Chaud (puffy pastry pork and chicken). Love its grilled beef sandwich, very tasty. The aroma and the taste of lemongrass is just heavenly good. Baguette was crispy. Beef was tendered and juicy. While I like the beef sandwich, however, not so much on chicken sandwich. Although it was tendered and juicy as well, but no taste compared to the beef. Will skip this next time. All trimmings such as slices cucumber, carrot and daikon pickles, slice jalapeños and cilantro were fresh. Pate Chaud was good. Very tasty on both chicken and pork. Service was friendly.

My favorite Vietmames Banh Mi place. I only wish they had a location in Irvine. This establishment has the best quality ingredients and their own yummy twist to Traditional đặc biệt (#1) sandwhich all for a great price! Clean restaurant and friendly staff makes it welcoming. My only complaint is parking can be in pain in the butt, I would recommend calling in your order before during peak times.

My go-to banh mi spot! I drive 15 miles to go here and it is worth every mile. The way they make their sandwiches reminds me of the kind I grew up with. I don’t eat pork so the beef and sardine are my favorite sandwiches. I recommend getting the fried egg on the beef banh mi. The bread is made in house, is crispy and soft at the same time. I especially love how clean the place is and how they prepare the sandwiches. They don’t mix utensils and always change gloves each time. The people are also friendly. I can’t recommend this place enough.

Whenever I'm in town I have to stop here! the Banh Mi sandwiches are great and you can not beat the price! They last for quite awhile if you are not looking to eat them right away. I have even brought some back to Utah and they were great! I love the BBQ Pork with egg. These are even great for breakfast! You can not go wrong here!

I got the lemongrass beef and the service was really fast. The ambiance is good and clean. I would recommend

This is very excellent place for stop by to enjoy your taste fresh soft crisp bread that I never had before compare with other sandwiches place that I went ! Excellent

Thai tea is amazing and grilled pork sandwich is always consistent. Honor recommend to all of my friends

1:30p on a Tuesday - the magic hour here. Like literally NO ONE! Apparently the lunch rush just left and it was 5 minutes from ordering to pick up! This review took longer than the whole ordering process.

Wednesday, March 11, 2025, my wife and I decided to try Carrot & Daikon Bánh Mì located on the corner of Magnolia and Bolsa in Westminster. The shop is in a plaza where the parking lot is shared with other businesses. Inside the store there are a few tables and chairs, but there are no customer restrooms. We ordered the Đặc Biệt (The Classic #1) for $7.49. The sandwich was served on a Vietnamese baguette that was soft and did not have the crispy crust that many bánh mì shops usually have. Inside were traditional Vietnamese cold cuts topped with pickled carrot and daikon, cucumber slices, and fresh cilantro. However, the pickled carrots were extremely sweet and the daikon was very juicy (which normally should not be the case) and did not taste very good. The vegetables were fresh but not crunchy, which did not provide the balance that a good bánh mì usually has with the savory meats. The bread itself was soft and not very impressive compared to bánh mì from other shops. Although the sandwich held together well and was light to eat, the overall flavor was just okay. In our opinion, my wife and I would not recommend it, but others may still want to try it for themselves since everyone has different taste preferences.

I tried calling ahead to place an order to go but no one picked the phone. When I arrived, there's a 15 mins wait to pick up my order. That said, I ordered my usual to go fish cake banh mi. Despite the wait, the food still delivered. They also have small bites for sale on the side like chips, soda, spring rolls.. etc Parking: Small plaza with limited parking but all the businesses seem to be dead around here. Parking shouldn't be a problem. Seatings: About 20 seats.. ?!

No doubt about it, the Banh Mi are excellent and big enough to share. We bought two and had leftovers for the next day and they still tasted great. Our Banh Mi server skillfully prepared our sandwiches. It's mainly food to go but there are a few tables if you choose to eat in. It was our first visit but we will be back for more. Cheers!

I love this place for my banh mi needs! Got bbq pork and pork belly and it was delicious! Their bread is light, crispy, soft, and the ratio of bread and filling is good. I ordered a few extra plain baguettes as well; they don't disappoint. Service was quick. I called in and picked up within 15 minutes.

First time visitor to this location Located very small shopping center Parking limited however online orders is available and be prepare for potential line in person however super efficient with ordering They do sell other goodies located around the small shop Indoor dining primarily with a few tables and stools Simple quick service or grab Clean and functional. Listen for order number to pick up Tasty all the way! Even near end of day bread was still soft and crunchy. Skimping not the case! Order the fish cake with extra veggies and love they don't upcharge. Crunch of veggies and fish cake very filling and flavorful. Would certainly return back to this location!

A tiny spot, but the banh mi is legit the bread is that perfect mix of crunchy on the outside and airy on the inside & not heavy like the other banh mi places. I grabbed the fish sandwiches & they do not skimp on the fish or the pickled veggies. The sauces they use are super flavorful, too. It's also surprisingly affordable for the quality you're getting. Just a heads up, it gets pretty crowded during the lunch rush, so be prepared to wait a bit or just grab it to go. Definitely one of the best spots in Little Saigon! Service is fast & friendly here

Tried their sandwich a few weeks ago when family ordered take out for catering. Wasn't bad. Convenient for storing in fridge to take to work or the like for following day. I think I still prefer lee's on golden west but this comes in a close second when it comes to my usual bánh mì đặc biệt (special) I order at every Vietnamese sandwich shop. Bread is a bit on the chewier side instead of flaky.

Was in the area and craving for some Banh Mi. After checking out yelp this joint showed up with a 4.5 Star rating. Luckily, we were only 10 mins away. This is in a corner strip with other businesses and had its own shared parking. Upon arriving, there was a spot just in front of the restaurant. Place is clean, organized. There was no line up at 12:30pm which was awesome. But it looked popping as there was quite a few people waiting for their order. We placed our order and the cashier was friendly enough. We waited for another 5-10 mins for them to make our Bahn Mi's. Worth the choice from the yelp reviews, worth the wait (still had to drive home before eating), and we'll be back. The sandwiches were delicious. They ran out of jalapeños but good thing we grow them at home so we just cut up 2 peppers and added to our sandwiches. Our order: 2- The Classic #1 w/extra pate 2- Pork Roll #2 3- Chicken egg rolls 3- Pork egg rolls 3- Crab+Shrimp egg rolls Not bad for $40 (not inc tip).

ORDER #1 banh mi dac biet (5/5) #2 banh mi cha (4.5/5) #8 banh mi thit nuong (3/5) the best banh mi!! the bread is super buttery and the potions are generous. i always get extra sauce + extra pate. the drinks here are surprisingly super good as well. one of the best thai tea & jasmine milk teas. SERVICE always super quick and friendly AMBIANCE plenty of parking and there are a few seats inside.

Our favorite stop for banh mi and egg rolls. Their crispy pork belly banh mi is one of our ultimate favoriteS. Perfectly toasted bread but still soft on the inside. I always ask for extra pickled veggies. The pork belly is crunchy and gives that extra layer of texture and flavor. You have to try it. I love the small food to go section. Their pate chaud and the pork egg rolls are a must. Everytime we bring their egg rolls to an event everyone always asks where they're from. They wrap the eggrolls in banh hoi (flat rice noodles) and when fried it is the most insane and delicious texture. I recommend ordering ahead for party size quantities of eggrolls since it takes a while for them to make. Highly recommend.

This was my first time at this location. I came here on a Thursday around 4pm and there was no wait. It's not the biggest plaza but I found parking pretty easily. I love ordering the banh mi dac biet, the banh mi heo quay, and the banh mi thit nuong. My family (I am Vietnamese) always loves the sandwiches from here too. I also enjoy the sugar cane drink. Everything is delicious here. Thank you!

I didn't even take pictures. It was so good. The food is amazing. Bread is crunch and good. Service was quick because we ordered online and did a pickup. Ambiance was clean.

I love me a fresh made banh mi sandwich. My favorite here is the grilled chicken and my kid always gets the crispy pork. If they got the pate chauds I get the chicken ones, The bread is fresh baked here and might cut the roof of your mouth. You are warned.

We stop by this location of Carrot & Daikon Banh Mi once every few weeks to get Banh mi. This afternoon when I came in, the store was FULL of customers waiting, inside and outside the store. Their banh mi's are actually very good and they don't skimp on the meat. It's about a dollar more than other Banh mi places but theirs are much better, in size and taste, hence the line. We've had the grilled chicken, grilled beef with two extra eggs on the side, eggs and spam, pork floss and pate, and everything is delicious. I had to wait for over 30 minutes today to get my order. So yes, be ready to wait and be patient.

Have been here plenty of times! I'd personally say that Carrot & Pickle Banh Mi are my two favorite banh mi stores! This time, I got the Meatball banh mi to-go. When I got home, the baguette was still extremely crispy and the meatballs had so much flavor. I also like how generous they are with the toppings (daikon, carrots, pate, meat). Had some left so heated up in the air fryer the next day and it still holds the texture and taste. Will be back again!

I love this place. Best banh mis. If you haven't yet, try the grilled chicken!!!! Can't go wrong with the classics: pork, dac biet , fried pork belly, lemon grass beef. Seriously can't recommend this place enough!

This is by far my favorite go-to banh mi location/ chain in SoCal. Portions (+) Price (+) Wait time - very reasonable. Convenient hours For about $7-8, you can easily have 1-2 meals. I usually buy a few sandwiches to share when I am in the area. I wished it expanded out to LA county (specifically 626)! There is no dining area, but they do have a drive thru.

My family and I love coming here and try to stop by every time we go to Santa Ana. I love their cha lua sandwiches and my husband loves their number 6, crispy pork belly. He says he loves how crunchy and tasty the sandwiches are. We just tried their Thai tea and it's AMAZING!

Sandwiches are made fresh and service was super fast. Will definitely come back to try other items on the menu. Space is clean and spacious, perfect for a quick bite.

Friendly service and fresh food. My favorites are egg and ham or grilled pork. They also have little snacks.

I really want to give a 5 because its typically really good, but some days, the fried pork does end up kinda not crispy. A good idea would be to throw it in the air fryer and bam its crispy. I also enjoy their bread too, but also not super crispy and fresh all the time. Overall, a great spot to try.

Best banh mi in my opinion, though I live in LA, I make a pit stop here when I'm in the area to get my banh mi fix. Service: typical no gruff no frills. Just know your order and wait if you're here during rush hour. Food: my favorite kind of banh mi. Soft on the inside, crunchy and the right crispy on the outside. Generous filling. Price is solid. Food is subjective, but this spot gets it right in my book.

10/10 no notes. This place is so good it's my favorite banh mi place. I got the classic dac biet with extra pate and it was so good. It's a great value for the amount of food you get. I went through the drive through and it was very easy. Service was great. The ambiance is very casual. I would take it away to eat somewhere else.

Dang there pork sandwich so amazing! Service was prompt and courteous. Especially since came right before closing. And ambiance is cool chill And ready to Serve. Definitely recommend

The banh mis here are huge and very affordable, they have so many different varieties too, that I never get tired of them. I also love their shrimp and pork spring rolls. You can get veggies on the side and ask them to leave stuff out if needed. The baguette is crunchy outside and soft inside, my favorite is always the combo, lots of meat and pate, super flavorful and the pickled veggies does a nice job balancing out all the meat.

We were excited because they had actual beef for the lemon grass sandwiches. Many other places have gone to ground beef. It was Saturday so they were more busy but not too bad. We placed our and wait. There are some seating but not much. We've been to Multiple location as well as this one before but today's visit did not turned out so well even after repeating our orders several times.

1. The sandwich was well-crafted and loaded with lots of layers! The grilled pork was good! 2. The spot has busy casual vibes! The interior is nicely arranged with enough room! 3. There were only indoor seatings available! There are few tables! 4. The staff was friendly and timely with my order! It was ready in less than 10 mins! 5. The parking lot is small! Spots are double-lined and not compact! Photo: Grilled Pork Banh Mi

Omg these sandwiches are good!! The bread is fresh and they stuff their sandwiches!!! Worth the price and value!! The pork belly is my favorite!! It's in an old Taco Bell so you just order at the window. They also have a drive through. The service is quick and they are nice. No ambience really as there is no sit down option at this location.

Amazing bánh mì. Mine was I think $6.99! A they put a ton of grilled chicken, lots of veggies and lots of sauce inside. From most bánh mì I've had in the past, there is only mayo but this had another sauce. No idea what it was, but it was creamy and good. Maybe too much for my preference. The service was fast. We ordered and received our sandwiches within 7 minutes! I got complimented on my Vietnamese :) My dad got the grilled pork and again, tons of meat. Very tasty too. It was sweet!! My mom got the xíu mại and ive never had it until today and it was super tender. The meatballs were flavorful and quite yummy.

This is always a good spot for Banh mi and it actually took the place of another banh mi store that had weird hours. So i'm glad they took over because I love this place. I got the chicken and of course the pork belly. It was so yummy. I also added some eggrolls and i loved the crunchiness of the wrapper.

My go to spot for Banh mi in OC. Bread is always perfectly toasted and the crispy pork belly is delicious, especially if you can eat it right away. Juicy and crispy.

Came here on a Thursday around lunch to find that there were some people eating. I got the banh mi heo quay. The guy at the register was super nice and cheery which was fun. At the time I ordered, the staff were dealing with a very large to-go order of sandwiches, so it took a little bit for mine to get prepared. I wish they toasted the bread a bit before giving it to you, but maybe that's something you have to specify. I think it lived to the hype. The veggie serving is a lot, and the heo quay is very crispy and soft. The butter is also very yummy and to-die for. The size of the banh mi is also HUGE. Would come back

This is my second time here. And I am waiting a long time and there is no line. Last time, there was a line and a wait. The food is good and authentic. But, I can't keep coming back here just to wait for a long time. I need to go back to work. All the meat is pre-made for their banh-mi

Try the lemongrass beef! Great service, decent parking, fast too. This is my go to place.

We got the classic cold cut banh mi here and the 'fresh' sugar cane juice. The banh mi is a different style and it was really good and very well balanced - I enjoyed this a lot and would come back for this. The 'fresh' sugar cane juice was definitely not fresh and came from a can, it was overly sweet and had a metallic taste. It was so bad we returned it and the employee already knew before we came back in - they know they shouldn't be selling it. Service was frantic and the ambiance was minimal but parking was easy enough.

I was visiting Westminster and wanted to grab banh mis for dinner later and and lunch the next day. A lot of people and online reviews recommend Carrot & Daikon, so I was really excited to try! This location is tucked inside a small strip mall. If we didn't know any better, We ordered three different kinds: Dac Biet, Shredded Pork & Pate, Lemongrass Beef, and the Crispy Pork Belly! The sandwiches were made fresh and prepared quickly. The sandwiches are enormous and had lots of filling- we were quite surprised. For the price alone, it is definitely worth it. Overall tho, the banh mis here arent our favorite. We felt like the pickled carrots and daikon are too sweet and overpower the other ingredients. The standouts for us were the Crispy Pork Belly and the Shredded Pork & Pate banh mis. Service was good and the people were nice. Ordering was quick and easy. There really wasn't much interaction so it's hard to fully judge.

This Vietnamese sandwich shop is a hidden gem. Located on Bolsa and Magnolia (across from a 7-11), it's one of well known places that hardly anyone knows about because of its small parking spot. Inside is inviting and menu is like any Vietnamese sandwich shop. What makes this and other locations different from other sandwich shops is that the bread is fresh and it's made to order. They have other items other than sandwiches including drinks. Recommend giving this place a try

Nice clean and spacious place. Easy parking lot. Nice service from the staff. Easy, quick order and quick turnaround. You can see the sandwich making right infront of you. The foods are good and tasty. They do have a sitting area inside for dine-in. Overall same consistency as their siblings stores.

We got in line and waited, came up to the register and ordered the number 1, which is the dac biet (or special). The inside is not very large, but big enough that if you wanted to eat there, you could. Mainly, people buy and take it to eat elsewhere. The sandwich was awesome, so awesome that I could see why people like it. It's big, meats are well made and flavorful and plenty. Ratio of everything was good. Lots of pate and mayo. But overall, it was quite balanced and good on ratios. Price and quantity are a good match, as half a sandwich is quite a bit. Why four instead of five stars? Drinks are bad and they know it, yet they still sell it, forcing me to come back to trade for a different drink. Steer clear of the sugarcane juice, tastes very canned. I would never get their Rau Ma here again too, same problem and bad taste.

Sandwich are fantastic, and service is excellent The best sandwich in Orange County Great customer service Friendly service

This is my go to location of carrot & daikon. If you come early for your banh mi, you won't run into any issues with parking before the other businesses open. Much faster than waiting in the drive through location at the Newland and Westminster location. Carrot & Daikon heo quay (roast pork) or the special thit neon never disappoints (5 out of 5 stars!) . Solid big sandwich. If you decide to eat the heo quay sandwich later, then I'd suggest you go ahead and request the sauce on the outside. The sandwiches here are pricier than some of the other places on Bolsa, due to size. Egg rolls are also my favorite. Staff are nice and efficient. The store has no space for you to sit in and eat really, so plan on doing a to go. They also accept credit cards and phone orders if you've got a large order. I've tried to see if I can online order, but doesn't look like it's an option.

One of my favorite Banh Mi places and a must stop when I visit the area. Such great flavors on all their sandwiches from the dac biet to their roasted pork belly. They are packed and are such great value. Service is always fast even when I order like 5+ banh mi at a time. Parking could get busy in the plaza but haven't had an issue.

Great sandwich and service. Always stop by and grab my sandwiches and coffee whenever I'm in town. High recommended!

So good!!! Lots of variety to choose from, but I ultimately picked the chicken banh mi! I loved it--the veggies were fresh, the chicken was tender and flavorful and the bread was so good, literally no complaints. I also tried my friend's crispy pork belly one and that one is SO GOOD. Perfect crispiness but also not too fatty for me. Service was quick too. Definitely one of my top if not favorite banh mi spot here!!

Tried Carrots & Daikon for the first time and was impressed! I got the #6 Crispy Pork Belly and the #1 Classic banh mi, both were massive and packed with flavor. The pork belly lived up to the hype: crispy and juicy! While I still prefer the butter they use at Lynda Sandwiches (it's just unmatched), Carrots & Daikon definitely holds its own. Solid banh mi spot, would recommend and definitely coming back to try more!
