M sandwiches Cafe San Mateo - Vietnamese restaurant in San Mateo - 205 E 4th Ave, USA

I am a huge fan of banh mi sandwiches and it's hard to dislike them in any form. I've had better banh mi sandwiches in San Jose but this place still hit the spot. It's a cute set up with limited seating. The service was friendly and speedy. I got #1 the original with ham cold cuts with pate. It tasted pretty standard. I like that they put the spicy jalapenos outside of the sandwich for those who don't like spicy.

Their Banh Mi's are great. They have one vegetarian and one egg based sandwich. Everything is freshly cut and it literally melts in your mouth. Every Banh Mi comes with a small side of chips which is great! Not much seating except 1 table outside so you might be better off taking it to go.

January 2022: Tried the original banh mi sandwich since that's always a good way to try the authenticity! Bread was very classic! Subtle crunch and airy 👍. Filling was plentiful. Had enough topping to evenly enjoy all of the ingredients with each bite. Overall, was a very tasty sandwich. Ham, pork and pate went very well together 😀. I would come back again for more banh mi sandwiches!

Amazing banh mi sandwiches! And the little bag of chips is always appreciated :) This is our go-to place for banh mi since we haven't found anything else on the peninsula that compares. The location is great for picking up food and then eating in Central Park.

We buy from here on and off. But recently, taking away 2 spring rolls cost about $14. I could’ve sworn it was significantly less just a couple of months ago. I’d hesitate to come back because although the spring rolls taste good, it’s not value for money anymore, especially for a casual takeaway joint.

Great Baugh mi- crisp and fluffy bread, good balance of meat and veggies. Great option for mid peninsula. Lovely family run business. Go to for picnic in the park

Incredible food. Sandwiches come with ruffles. Plants look so healthy. Incredible

I have just purchased and eaten a sandwich from this wonder place. The ingredients are fresh, the bread is crunchy outside and soft inside: perfect. The chicken is well seasoned and the sauce used is delicious. All the veggies and crunchy and tasty. Service is fast and the two people at the established very nice. The presentation is simple but really cute. I’ll be back hungry for more!
