Mekong Sandwich is a hidden gem for Vietnamese sandwiches right here in Des Moines!

Their Bahn Mi is absolutely top-notch, with fresh veggies and just the right kick from jalapeños. The crispy, buttery bread perfectly complements the juicy filling - definitely one of the best I’ve had! At just $4 each, it’s an incredible deal.

The casual atmosphere is warm, and watching the colorful fish tank while you wait makes the experience even better. Just remember to bring cash! Trust me, you'll want to visit... 🥪❤️
