Dakao Sandwiches

They open at 8am. They make their food daily freshly on site or made to order. You better come early because their stuff is gone quickly. The owners are very nice even you don’t know a word of Vietnamese, just simply point at the items you want from the display, mission complete! They have the best baguettes in town with buy 5 get 1 free promotion. The veggie one and the hose special (combination) are my must orders. Their Vietnamese ham roll is perfect for sandwiches, stir fry or in noodle soup. They also have very authentic desserts and pastries. The strong and sweet condense milk Vietnamese coffee is pleasant to have. You can’t miss their dry flat fat rice noodle box, which is the best. If you want to dine in (only 2 tables), they offer to heat up the food (soup) for you.

I haven't had a lot of real banh mi sandwiches at this point in my life, but Dakao really impressed me! Maybe a little light on the amount of filling inside, but the quality is there and the bread is OMFG perfect! 1000% worth it for the money too at around $7 per sandwich!

The bánh mì at Dakao Sandwiches are seriously so good. The bread is the real standout... perfectly crunchy on the outside, chewy on the inside, and sturdy enough to hold all the fillings together without falling apart. Every bite has that ideal balance of texture and flavor that makes a great bánh mì. The shop itself is located in a somewhat rundown strip mall, and parking can definitely be a challenge since there aren’t many spaces for the number of businesses in the plaza. That said, it’s absolutely worth the visit. It gets pretty busy, which isn’t surprising considering how affordable and delicious the food is. Service can be a bit hit-or-miss and tends to slow down when they’re packed, but the quality of the sandwiches keeps people coming back. If you’re looking for a tasty, no-frills

Came to this Vietnamese sandwich shop that was recommended from a Vietnamese friend and he was absolutely right. This place is the real deal and the sandwiches are fresh and most importantly they put pate on some of the sandwiches which is definitely a must when it comes to Vietnamese “Bahn mi”…. I got two sandwiches and it was seven dollars each so I got out of there for about $16 including tip. I love the baguettes. I love the meat inside and I love the balance and texture and I will definitely be back so thank you thank you thank you and great job…:)

They make their food fresh daily on-site or to order, and the place opens at 8:00 am. I ordered a grilled pork bánh mì and a special bánh mì, each for $7.10. Honestly, they’re not as good as the bánh mì I usually get back in OC, but they’re decent enough. The Vietnamese coffee was just okay nothing special. I also got some sticky rice and a steamed bun. Overall, it’s more about filling up than having an amazing meal. The place looked clean, and it was pretty busy when I visited, so I had to wait a bit for my bánh mì. The staff were very friendly , attentive, and easy parking. One thing to note: if you pay with a credit card, the establishment adds a 4% surcharge to help offset processing costs, so cash might be the better option.
