During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, friends would occasionally surprise us by leaving bánh mì sandwiches at our front door as a random act of kindness from their favourite shop, "Mr. Baguette". For the uninitiated, a bánh mì is a sandwich popular in Vietnamese cuisine served on a baguette filled with meat, a variety of fresh vegetables (e.g., pickled carrots & daikon, cucumber, pepper, cilantro, etc.), condiments, & more. I'd eaten bánh mì from a few other popular chains, but for some reason the bánh mì sandwiches from "Mr. Baguette" just seemed...better. Fast forward to 2024...When we finally visited "Mr. Baguette" in person, we were pleasantly surprised. Located in the Little Saigon area of Westminster, California, this location of the "Mr. Baguette" chain is tucked away in a modest strip mall, & if you're driving too fast you just may miss it! Upon entry, we immediately noticed that this shop offers a different experience compared to other popular chains we've frequented. During our visits to "Mr. Baguette," it's been pretty low-key & quiet. The take-out only shop is very clean, & (to date), the polite staff handle your food in a sanitary manner, wear face-coverings/masks & gloves, & have maintained the plexi-glass barriers. Their efforts to keep customers & staff safe (rarely seen these days) are very much appreciated --- especially for those who are immune-compromised. Thank you so very much for caring about the health & safety of your customers & staff! The nice variety of bánh mì sandwiches offered at "Mr. Baguette" can be customized with your choice of breads, meats, condiments, & fresh veggies, & they are more than happy to cut your sandwich in half. They even offer faux "meat" options (e.g., vegan chicken, ham, & turkey) for non-meat eaters! The sandwiches we've enjoyed here have always been fresh & delicious, & the baguettes are wonderful. I only wish they would offer gift cards or certificates...it would be great to share the love with others! I'm a fan!

I enjoyed this place for years cause of the politely, friendly, courtesy and helpful staff. The place is small, bright, lean cut , friendly space with plenty parking spaces. All foods are to go or quick eat at the high table there against glass window with no chair. I don't like their bread much since it pre baked (frozen) or half way baked then baked the rest on the spot. The meats are quite pleasantly enjoyable and tasty. The cold meats & cold veggies against the warm bread with light butter and pâté are delightful delicious. If you order hot coffee, they will make it on the spot and very good. Their menu have plenty of choices and with 2 type of breads (VNese & US) plus they do have pastries, coffee and juices too. I used ordered the Saigon bacon (pork belly, typical VNese meat for banh mi) but the price had gone up $13 for it...I also enjoy the combo or special #1. Their paté chaud (pork or chicken) is fantastic. Buttery crunchy crush and tasty filling - and it's the biggest size I seem so far too. Yes the prices are on the high end, but worth it once or twice a month (if you give up something for it). I got their special offer coffee & pastry set for $6.50 for hot coffee ($7.50 for iced coffee)...paté chaud & hot milk coffee and #1 special VNnese banh mi for total of $15 (not including tip).

Good bread, good service, clean place. I was bummed they didn't have sesame seed baguette available

Hard for me to try a new Banh Mi place and not think about my go-to. I got the Pate & Pork Meatloaf w/ French Baguette (Banh Mi Cha Lua). My favorite cut of meat is the cha so it was a bit hard for me to figure out which one on it was on the menu. Thank goodness I was able to order in Vietnamese! The banh mi and meat itself was pretty good, just nothing too special. The meat was good and plentiful, but the bread was a bit hard like it lost it's crunch and soft inside. I wouldn't mind coming back, but only if I had to. It was still a great meal!

This place is one of my go-to Viet Sandwiches in Rosemead and Westminster. Today, I ordered the BBQ Pork sandwiches; there was no hint of lemongrass and barely any filling inside. I forgot to take a picture. Their special sandwich is nothing special. The Rosemead location (original) always has the best butter croissant. They were very eye-catching, but SADLY, I was very disappointed with how dry it was inside, even though it looked good from the outside. I wondered if it was (at least) one day old croissant. A freshly baked croissant should be soft in the center and this wasn't. The server ladies are very pleasant, but I will not be back to this location. They have a combo of bread and coffee for a few bucks cheaper.

Service was alright. Saw a review that the strawberry smoothie was spilling everywhere. I had the same experience. So I think it's the consistency of the drink that makes it messy. The mango smoothie came out fine. So if u want a less messy smoothie and better tasting one, I recommend going for the mango. Waited a good 15 min while seeing other customers getting their food first even though they came after. I liked that the place was clean though.

Lacked pate and bread a bit too thick for my liking. Ham special can be packed a bit more of a wham. It satisfies the craving for banh mi to go.

Excellent service and quality product, order was on time. Highly recommend to other customers!
