Alphabet City storefront serving banh mi sandwiches & other Vietnamese dishes, mostly to go.
From Google Maps reviews.
Im a big fan of Vietnamese food and have tried many bahn mi spots but this is definitely one of the most flavorful sandwiches I’ve eaten. They even redelivered my order when they couldn’t get to me the first time.
They have gluten free Banh Mi!!!!! And it’s delicious!!! I’ve lived in NYC for 8 years and been gluten free for 6. Sadly, I didn’t know GF banh mi was an option until last year. I’m just over the moon to have found this place. The bread is perfectly toasted and the ingredients are so fresh. The employees are great—enthusiastic and kind. Banh Mi Zon rules.
THIS PLACE IS DISGUSTING! the worker named IVAN had showed concerns that i took an empty doordash bag. It was laying at the counter (see the orange bags in the picture)and i believe its for all to use. Anyways, i ordered their sandwich. HE gave me a really bad experience.
