Quick and easy bahn mi. They stuffed it to the brim with ingredients. So many veggies!!! Really worth the price. Put in an order online and got it in less than 10 minutes. Bread was soft and flakey on the inside. Portion size was great, and you can order extra meat, which we did. Make sure to call and ask for jalapeneos if you want them!

Called two days in advance for a takeout order of 30 small boxes (as opposed to large) of vermicelli/rice with lemongrass chicken. I had a vermicelli one. It comes with a sweet and sour liquid sauce, I pour it all in and mix. The chicken is boneless thigh with skin on (skin on is a bonus for me). It was juicy and seasoned excellently. I would definitely come back again. (Maybe try the large box.)

163 Viet provides no-frills take out at reasonable prices. $7 gets you a cold cut bahn mi, prepped and wrapped earlier in the day. Baguette remains crisp, leading to many crumbs. The cold cuts contain some sort of pate that acts as a superior version of mayo, preventing dry bites. Some cold cut slices also have texture variation due to fast and gelatin, which I enjoy. $5.75 gets you 3 shrimp spring rolls. Rice paper remains springy and herbs seem fresh. Note that I went on a Thursday noon. I also picked the cheapest version of bahn mi and spring roll. Other bahn mis cost $8 and other spring rolls cost $7. Cash only, counter service Covid-style where a plastic barrier blocks off most of the interior.

Great sandwiches at a great deal. We got the bbq chicken bahn mi. It's a good place to pick up something to eat and only for only $7!

I love this place so much. My boyfriend introduced me to this place and I can't help but to come back for more. The bahn mi sandwhiches are AMAZING and I always get either the cold cut or the bbq pork. The service is amazing and very quick. The ambiance of the store is little and dainty, but they get the job done. I love this place with all my heart.

So this is a funny little place in Chinatown because it's not Chinese it's Vietnamese. I've been frequenting here and grabbing a sandwich or a spring roll referred to as fresh roll for at least a decade or two. The sandwiches are always fabulous. My favorite on the crunchy extremely messy crummy rolls which are delicious. Is the beef sandwich with a variety of vegetables and they pickle very tasty. I've posted some photos. You definitely have to try one. And don't forget to order extra nothing Vietnamese butter. It's freaking amazing. As for the fresh roll. You always get two whole shrimp plus your veggies and noodle in a nice thin wrap and it comes with some fabulous peanut sauce. I could drink the sauce it's so great. Now the people behind the counter are extremely efficient but a little bit on the rude side. Basically you go in you order your food then they ask you to go outside and wait because there's only about 3 feet where someone can order food so on a rainy snowy day it's not the place you wanna head out to but on a sunny day during good weather definitely, you'll always see a crowd or at least three or four people standing out front on a nice day, waiting for their sandwiches and food. As it's in Chinatown the parking is extremely tough so plan ahead just as if you're gonna go to any other restaurant in Chinatown even if you're just picking up a sandwich or say a prayer and do what everyone else does, double park and hopefully not get a ticket. This place is well-established and has been there for approximately 20 years give or take and the food is always good.

I'm always excited when I pass by this spot and it's open, since the hours seem to be a bit hit or miss. It's strictly a to-go spot and there isn't any seating inside, so be prepared. Sometimes I like to walk over and eat my Banh Mi at the park, but other times I'm so hungry I can't even wait to dig in! This time, I stopped by for lunch on a Monday and grabbed the BBQ Beef bahn mi. I requested to only have fish sauce and no butter on my sandwich. The bread is very flakey and tastes great, but sometimes it overpowers the filling. I think other spots like Bah Le in Dorcester are a bit better at striking the right bread to filling balance. However, I still always enjoy grabbing a sandwich here, especially because it's so quick and convenient!
