“ Banh Mi My Tho is a real treat! The banh mi has the perfect crunch, and the pickled veggies give it a nice, tangy kick. Planning to eat later? Just let the staff know, and they'll keep the pickles and veggies separate so everything stays fresh for you. Their Broken Rice (Com Tam) is also a must-try--great portions at a good price. Since it gets busy, I'd recommend calling in your order to save time. And trust me, you don't want to miss the Vietnamese Condensed Milk Coffee (Ca phe sua da). It's the perfect match for the banh mi! Though it's mainly a takeout place, you've got options: enjoy your food at the little tables out front or head to a nearby park for a mini picnic. ”

“ -CASH ONLY -Closed on Mondays Banh Mi My Tho has the BEST grill pork banh mi sandwich (Bánh mì thịt nướng) in town and beyond; also known as number 8 on the menu. A must get! Their Second best seller is Vietnamese Special combination cold cut sandwich (Bánh mì đặc biệt). Delicious but not my favorite here. I prefer: Ba Le, My Dung, Hue Thai Bakery; or Valley Sandwiches in Reseda, Ca for Dac Biet Banh Mi - Vietnamese Cold Cut Sandwiches. Banh Mi My Tho has: Three locations total, but I must say that this Alhambra location (original) is my personal FAVORITE because it's ran by mom n pop; the other two locations are in Rosemead and are ran by the owners adult children. All locations are solid; slightly different in hours of operation and the newer locations take credit card payment. ”

“ I'm from the Bay and to me it feels like its getting more and more rare to get quality banh mis without breaking the bank. I'm sure there are a bunch of places, but it's harder to find. Banh mi my tho however, makes me want to move down to SoCal just so I can get a good banh mi for less than 9$! I got 4 special cold cut combos and 2 charbroiled pork sandwiches for less than 50$! That's almost unheard of to me. They were hefty banh mis too! I tried the special cold cut combo and it had the usual fixings in them. Vietnamese pork roll and ham, pickled radish, carrots, cucumbers, jalapenos, pate, and mayo, but something that stood out to me about this cold cut combo is that it also had charbroiled pork in there. I've never had a cold cut combo that also had charbroiled pork so that was a special surprise. The pork was sweet and savory at the same time and the bread was nice and toasty. Eating an entire one is a meal in itself. This place is cash only but for the price you can get like 10 and have lunch for a week without having an empty wallet! ”

“ I see why this is a gem in SGV! My rating is purely based on the beef banh mi. Definitely my go-to for beef banh mi from now on. Parking - Ample parking in the same lot as East International Bank. Ambiance - It's a quaint space. Take away only with a small selection of snacks and ready made food on the shelves. Service - It was a relatively short line for lunchtime on a week day. I had two people ahead of me and waited roughly five minutes till my number was called. Cash only at this establishment. Food - Beef banh mi was packed with meat and there was little to no fat. The pickled veggies had a heavy vinegar flavor which I didn't mind. I was pleasantly surprised to bite into peanuts! That was a great addition for texture. The bread wasn't the best but it's not a deal breaker. The $8.50 price tag seems steep but the amount of beef makes up for it. ”

“ I've been to quite a lot of banh mi places over the years, and I'd personally say that this place is still definitely the best banh mi place in the Greater Los Angeles area. There are multiple locations as well, but I prefer this Alhambra location the most because it has the largest menu. My personal favorites: - #1 Cold Cut Ham Sandwich - #2 Special Cold Cut Ham Sandwich - #8 Charbroiled Pork Sandwich - #9 Charbroiled Beef Sandwich - Espresso Iced Coffee My overall rating for the banh mi: 9.5/10 ”
