Baguette Express

Wow, I've been to a lot of places to eat Bahn Mi and I have to say, this place is the best! The freshly baked bread is out of this world.
It tastes fresh and is super soft! I got the regular chicken and my husband the teriyaki chicken.
The thai tea with boba was great, not watered down like most places, and the boba was soft, not hard.
The ladies there, Jackie and Lin, are super happy people and very kind, and they make their food with a lot of love! I will definitely be coming back next time!

Don’t let the location fool you! Staff is very kind, and the food is excellent.
You know how in Ratatouille they know the bread is good by the sound it makes? This locations bread makes that noise, and you taste the freshness.
I tried (and got the next day) the Turkey & pesto.
We both tried the Vietnamese coffee.
And we proceeded to get the same the next day.
My husband tried the teriyaki beef and another sandwich I forgot the name.
I had the same sandwich both days, it’s that good.
The banana peppers take it to the next level! If you love a simple, fresh, delicious sandwich you need to give this place a try! Let them know I sent you! The area does have plenty of parking, watch for those speed bumps! It’s a little hidden, familiarize yourself with the directions and drive safe! Close to CalState San Bern!

I wish I had thought to take more pictures because believe me the poorly lit photos in my kitchen do not do this justice! Absolutely delicious bahn mi,egg rolls, and pot stickers! The wife tried the iced coffee as well and said it was amazing! We stopped here after reading the excellent reviews and they weren't wrong.
We usually get bahn mi at a chain that's mostly in Orange county (Lee's if you're curious), but it's a long drive so we only go there if we're in the area as the locations that are closer to us in the IE are not as good.
I am so excited that we found somewhere just as good, if not better, that's so close to home!! The pictures are the express special (may be off on the name, buts it's the #1 sandwich on the menu).
It's the one with pate, so not everyone's favorite, but if you like it this sandwich is phenomenal!! Perfect amount of toppings, everything is super fresh, and the bread is perfection! Plus, Jackie, the owner, is so darn nice! We will be back many times and I am so excited we decided to Google this restaurant and saw how much everyone loves it!
