Curry chicken (#9) - only get spicy if you can REALLY tolerate spicy food. They put slices of jalapeños in the sandwich.
Brendan LewisJuly 23, 2014
Dirt cheap and cleaner alternative to the competition around the corner. spicy #1 all the way!

Veggie tip: 6a - mock chicken curry banh mi is awesome good - must have if you're veg* - can be vegan without vietnamese mayo.
Indira VaidyJanuary 8, 2012
Some of te best bahn mi in the city. I love the curried chicken, really hearty. And they have Ovaltine!

They take credit cards, ApplePay, Google Pay, tap to pay now!

1 sandwich is plenty for 2 people. Oh and also check out the jewelry while you wait for your order.
Karan TamhaneFebruary 28, 2016
Great sandwiches except for the bread. Extremely hard bread, so be careful or you'll get cut.
Nazary NebelukSeptember 19, 2014
Best bahn mi in New York. Get the classic and enjoy
John ReggioOctober 25, 2009
Great value for lunch - under $4. Don't be shocked - it's a jewelry store, too. Try the pork or meatball. I'm not a big fan of the chicken. Sandwich topped with pickled carrots/cabbage and cilantro.
Wendy QiuMarch 11, 2015
Amazing value.. huge variety .. and everything is delicious.
BuzzFeedJuly 23, 2010
The only place in New York to get Bahn Mi. Not literally, of course,but the sandwiches here are so far ahead of others sharing the samename that it's not really fair to call them both Bahn Mi. Get

Try the Banh Mi Saigon (BBQ pork) sandwich or the Banh Mi (chicken) sandwich! Get it hot!
Josephine SonOctober 11, 2012
Total bargain! $4.25 for a pork banh mi sandwich. Just add a little extra hot sauce and you're good to go!

Tell them you're eating the sandwich tomorrow or they'll give you stale (at least less fresh) bread

Come here for NYC's best bargain on cheap, flavorful Vietnamese sandwiches. Get the Banh Mi Saigon (pork) sandwich - $3.57 for a foot-long. Read more
Gianna NebbiaNovember 16, 2017
Phenomenal and ridiculously cheap
Jacqueline DechongkitDecember 14, 2011
Get the number four - pork and pâté is the classic Vietnamese combo. This place has the best sandwiches in NY.

Had the chicken curry & BBQ pork bahn mi... Pretty good... Not the best I've had, but decent.
Julia KwongJuly 31, 2013
Best to go before 5pm or else you risk not getting any sandwiches. They sell out everyday!
SkillshareOctober 5, 2011
Cheap, cheap, cheap. Yum, yum, yum. Get there before 12:30ish to avoid a line. Faster service than the speed of light.

My favorite place for banh mi in the area. Maybe even the best in the city.
Ray LinApril 23, 2014
Don't get it twisted, now. Slowly exit and go to the confusingly similarly-named Saigon Vietnamese Sandwich Deli around the corner. The difference is astronomical.
A CJune 17, 2018
So good. Get a meatball sandwich. Get it spicy.
Colin LeeApril 29, 2017
Good veggie options here (e.g. Curry mock chicken)
Matt DaimlerJanuary 16, 2014
Order #1 bahn me with extra meat and hot sauce.
Joseph KristofferDecember 6, 2011
The ladies that man the kitchen here are so cute—it's like having seven moms. Even got a tip for good NYC pho.
Taline EkmekjianApril 7, 2013
Your best option in Chinatown. The ingredients are top notch.
Soraya DarabiJanuary 27, 2011
Try the Bahn Mi - I love this sandwich with siracha and extra jalapeños. Picked especially for my social media week video.

#1! Only get spicy if you can stand the jalapeño heat!
Diana MNovember 30, 2010
We ordered 2 sandwiches for less than 8 bucks and ate them while strolling around Chinatown. Perfect way to spend the evening.
Chino W.July 14, 2010

Great sandwiches!
Victoria TDecember 9, 2013
Attention white people: it's baNH mi not baHN. It's right in the name. "Bahn" is fucking German. Sheesh.
Garett PressAugust 9, 2014
Go to the other Saigon Banh mi around the corner. It's better.
Match ThisflyAugust 3, 2014
$4 for a huge, healthy, tasty sandwich. #done
