    Curry chicken (#9) - only get spicy if you can REALLY tolerate spicy food. They put slices of jalapeños in the sandwich.

    Veggie tip: 6a - mock chicken curry banh mi is awesome good - must have if you're veg* - can be vegan without vietnamese mayo.

    1 sandwich is plenty for 2 people. Oh and also check out the jewelry while you wait for your order.

    Great sandwiches except for the bread. Extremely hard bread, so be careful or you'll get cut.

    Great value for lunch - under $4. Don't be shocked - it's a jewelry store, too. Try the pork or meatball. I'm not a big fan of the chicken. Sandwich topped with pickled carrots/cabbage and cilantro.

    The only place in New York to get Bahn Mi. Not literally, of course,but the sandwiches here are so far ahead of others sharing the samename that it's not really fair to call them both Bahn Mi. Get

    Tell them you're eating the sandwich tomorrow or they'll give you stale (at least less fresh) bread

    Best to go before 5pm or else you risk not getting any sandwiches. They sell out everyday!

    Cheap, cheap, cheap. Yum, yum, yum. Get there before 12:30ish to avoid a line. Faster service than the speed of light.

    Don't get it twisted, now. Slowly exit and go to the confusingly similarly-named Saigon Vietnamese Sandwich Deli around the corner. The difference is astronomical.
