pork belly sandwich is a good one (with the fried egg of course) - it looks small but you got so full afterwards!

The Quality has improved each time that I've visited. The Steak Banh Mi with Avocado has been my favorite so far.

Salt and pepper garlic fries. Jalapeños were super mild.

The modern ambiance belies the super affordable sub-$8 (but carefully crafted and delicious) banh mis they serve up. Grab a window seat and people watch on Market while you enjoy your sando.

Great banh mi sandwiches in a fun and vibrant space. A great addition to FIDI! I will return

Great vibrant space, the food was nice but "5 spice chicken sandwich" cost almost half as much as very comparable one @SaigonSandwich (Larkin 560).

Yum! Sandwiches are great, especially 5 spice chicken & sloppy bun. Don't waste stomach capacity on summer rolls...fairly unremarkable.

Amazingly, all sandwiches are under $8. Couple these with addictive ginger-lime-dressed salads to revel in freshness. Read more

The crispy tofu sandwich is a great vegetarian option. Especially with a side of their sweet potato fries.

My favorite is the belly bun with hard boiled egg with salt n pepper fries! Wash that down with an iced coffee! Yum!

I'm a huge fan of their crispy tofu sandwich and peppery fries!

Lemongrass pork sandwich filled me up. I would definitely eat here for a quick on the go lunch.

Decently priced banh mi for FiDi during lunch. Try the lemongrass chicken.

Ground beef bahn mi was amazeballs. The kaffir limeade was good but ask them to dilute it with water...it's super sweet.

The sloppy Joe's is some of the best in (and uncommon in) San Francisco.
Amy GoddardJuly 8, 2014
The Bun Bowl with fried egg is amazing. Always get the fried egg. Always.

Pork belly bowl with egg is part of the secret menu, just ask. It's delicious.

They have happy hour and the 5$ Crispy Tofu sandwich is pretty good !

Awesome Vietnamese sandwich place. The homemade mayos rock my world.
Edna LoMarch 21, 2015
Modern banh mi, Vietnamese sandwich. The choices was unique and had an American twist to it. Taste was ok.
Daniel SeeffJune 5, 2014
Long lines during lunch. Order online or get delivery. So worth it, great food!
Ben RussoSeptember 6, 2015
Get there before noon so you don't have to wait in line.
Simon FungJanuary 23, 2014
Brand new restaurant on market street. Serves sandwiches, salads and noodles.

The belly bun is out of this world.

Always add avocado, duh.

If you think this place is of decent value, you've been in the San Francisco bubble a bit too long.

"Warning: all sandwiches come with hot jalapeño peppers. Unless you're a sissy." No pressure.

Eat the one that has pork belly

Nothing authentic about this sandwich at all. There's donut shops that serve better Vietnamese sandos.
