Ba Le Sandwiches

I only come here the plain bread. My absolute fav!! I buy a lot bc I don't live close by. Stays soft for a long time.

I was in the mood for banh mi so decided to check out Ba Le when the place I originally wanted to try was already closed. The interior is very small, though there are a few tables for dining in. I ended up ordering the special sandwich, which took about 5 minutes to prepare. Most sandwiches are between $4-$6. There are also some items for sale on the side and in the refrigerators.The banh mi was a decent size, about a foot long, on a baguette. It was not too fat but it was full of goodies and had great flavor with relatively crisp bread. The jalapeño slices were quite spicy!Great place for no frills, no fuss banh mi! Credit card accepted with an additional upcharge/fee.P.S. If you are in a bigger group, I believe there was a "buy 5 get 1 free" promotion.

The #11 Ba Le Combo has all the good stuff, thit nguoi, ham, gio and gio thu. The pate and mayo complements the meats perfectly.

I ordered banh mi pate cha lua (pork roll).Bread is great; however, you can hardly find any pate or cha lua (see pic). Where's the meat?BREAD = 4 starsMeat ratio & filling in the bread = 2 stars

You can't do a SoCal Vietnamese food run without getting at least one banh mi... we ended up getting a couple, to-go of course (since this was like our 8th stop of the day).Even though we were stuffed, the sandwiches smelled so good we cracked them open in the parking lot and damn near finished one of them. So absolutely good...I mean there are a number of great sandwich shops in Little Saigon. I humbly assert that this one should be in just about everyone's rotation.

There are a myriad of places in Little Saigon to find a great banh mi - Vietnamese sandwich on either a baguette or French roll. And new spots seem to open up all time. I had a handful of favorite places myself when I lived in Orange County. I just wish I knew about Ba Le sooner. It remains one of my recommended choices. Their warm, freshly made breads are chewy, very light and has a nice distinct crunch when you bite into them. Moreover, at $3.50, their foot-long sandwiches are adequately stacked with meats (including their housemade pate) and the usual garnishes - making them one of the best values for a delicious, hearty meal.

Very good đặc biệt sandwiches ! Not too small not too big just the right size of baguette sandwich! Give it a try! Nice and friendly too not rude like some others ! That's a big plus!

We bought 4 baguettes but they gave us the vegetables pickles for 2 baguettes. I will never come back ever again, wonder why they have opened for a long time but not popular

Owner sits at front table i assume is for dine in customers cleaning her ears with finger. She hollers for the lady in the back to come out to help me. No gloves, handle cash from another customer that came in after me then went right back to making sandwiches.

Food is okay! It's tasty and at a reasonable price. I got the pork bbq sandwich. It's in a small place, felt like a small business. Customer service is okay as well.
