100% best sandwiches, service, vibes,I had been on a QUEST to find the best sandwich and honestly, I should have started here.The vegetarian is perfect: amazing ratio of protein to bread to veg, excellent flavor. Brilliant spice. The bread is the perfect example of what it should be: crispy, chewy, fantastic.Even with a line you'll be taken care of quickly- and- there isn't a lot of seating. If you do score a little table, enjoy the vibes with your sandwich, they are WONDERFUL.

I am so happy that Le's reopened. We used to go there quite frequently when it was in the Asian Mall and we lived in NoDa. Their # 6 grilled pork banh mi sandwich spicy style is my favorite banh mi I have ever had! When they close I was really dissatisfied and hoped they would open up again, and they did! The owner took our order and was super kind and talkative as always. Their new location (which is a new building in front of the old Asian Mall as it is being torn down) is kinda funky and quaint. They have the old Asian Mall sign on their wall which was a nice homage to their original location. There are only a few tables but the food comes out quick and you eat it pretty quick. I think most people take their sandwiches to go anyway.I highly recommend stopping by Le's, you wont be disappointed!PS - I also ordered a sandwich to go after we finished lunch because I missed their food that much!

I have been going to Le's Sandwiches & Cafe ever since I was a child (and when they were still located in the Asian Corner Mall) and this place ALWAYS hits. Their new location is still in the same sketchy plaza with the bad potholes in the parking lot, but this place is a must try if you are looking for exceptional bánh mì. I always order their Bánh Mì Thịt Nguội and it is perfect. The house mayo and pâte are so good--I could literally just eat the baguette with both those condiments. I also like their pickled carrots/daikons a lot as they help add to the flavor in the sandwich. The service is pretty quick and the interior gives a little homage to Vietnam. There is very little seating inside so I would say this is more of a grab and go type of place. I have not found a bánh mì shop that I like as much as this place just because I am so used to eating from here. I highly recommend coming here!

Love this place! I may be late, but they moved from their old location in the mall to a new building in the parking lot and it's so nice and clean! They have a market with coffee, meats, drinks, sweets, and other items. They also serve boba tea and beer on tap! Their banh mi's are the best of the best and their employees are friendly. Quick service and turnaround times on to-go orders, too. They don't take Amex so make sure to have other payment options available and on hand.

Wow Le's has a new location!! Guess I haven't been here in a while? Le's is still the best Bahn-Mi around!! So glad we decided to come by again. And yes they take cards now. Le said his son has taken over the business now and done all the updates. The building is brand new, the dining room is relaxing and so cool, staff are super welcoming and friendly. This place was perfect before but now it's even better. Thanks for continuing the legacy.

We had the Chicken Bah Mi it was Delicious!Chicken was well cooked with great seasoning and sliced thin. Veggies SUPER fresh! Bread crunchy on outside soft on inside.Wish they had more non-pork options like fish or beef.They do not have tea which I was kinda shocked about (iced or hot).Quick Short Service(you will definitely be in and out pretty quickly) I'm glad we were driving past and I just wanted to drive thru the parking lot as I use to go in the Asian corner mall many many years ago. And I came across this gem which I had saved on my Yelp must try list!

Heard about this spot for years and finally visited the CLT legend. Food was awesome, staff was super friendly and made us smile multiple times, and the ambiance was a tribute to Vietnam with elements of their cultural. Good spot with a solid menu.

Food is always great and always hits the spot. Whenever I'm in town, this is my to-go spot for Banh mi sandwiches. Interior is cute and the owners try to share a bit of Vietnam with customers and I love that. Owners are very sweet and helpful.

Great spot worth making an effort to seek out. I finally got down there to try the roast pork belly they've introduced recently. It's available in banh mi fork or by the pound. I got the banh mi. Absolutely incredible. Have had the grilled pork previously and that is awesome, too. They have other Vietnamese delicacies and treats available--iced coffee is delicious and they also have some boba drinks. People there are fantastic, as well. An oasis of Vietnamese awesomeness in Charlotte!

First the food, because when I was reading the ratings that's what I wanted to know about first. They have 12 different sandwich options. I tried 2 of them #6 and #12, a roast pork and pork belly option. The French bread was crunchy and flaky, the veggies generous and really fresh. I'm Latina so I know my cilantro and this cilantro was crunchy and fresh! The meat, well seasoned and the balance of ingredients in the sandwich was perfect, nothing overpowered--a harmony of yumminess! I also appreciated that the sandwich itself is really long, like a Parisian demi-baguette. I remarked on this and the owner said his parents asks their baker to custom make them so that their not the hoagie size you get elsewhere. It makes a difference! My sandwiches cost $7.25 and $8.25. I love Banh Mi and I've had it in NYC, Boston, Philly and Atlanta pretty regularly--these are the best I've had in Charlotte, and as yummy as back home.I also got the Vietnamese iced coffee and on a sunny spring day like today, it felt sweet and refreshing. Finished off that coffee, reading a book at Camp Northend. The space is really welcoming. It's gram-worthy, trendy and cozy at the same time. Four tables if you're like me and want a couple bites as soon as it's made because you can't wait the 10min drive to your picnic spot. And the owners and staff behind the counter are so friendly! I chatted a bit, asking questions while I waited. Coming back for their off-the-menu roast pork! The Instagram pics show a skin that's crunchiness rivals the Puerto Rican lechonerias I visited last Christmas for authentic roast pork with crispy skin. I'll update my review when I've tasted it. It's a 35min drive for me but I will definitely be back! https://www.instagram.com/les_banhmi_clt?igsh=cWR5ZHFlcml1ZTU0
