TLDR: Good food, great value, friendly owner.
I try to use a sliding relative scale when it comes to the venue. Tan Dinh hits a lot of 5 stars for me that keeps me coming back. The food is a great value and it tastes really good. Its one of these places that I enjoy the food and will always buy more for an extra meal. The chicken wings are good. Like the unsauced more than the sauced. Sandwiches are tasty, I have others I like more but it doesn't stop me from getting one every month like clock work. Did get to try a papaya salad once (think it was a one time leftovers from catering thing) which was really good. Parking is tricky in the lot (big dip/drop), would recommend you park on the street.

The bread is one step away from being a crouton ( dry and old).
I asked for no cilantro and they honor that request. The pork meat is on the lean side which I like but not for everyone. There were two inedible gristle pieces.
Banh Mi 2.25/5
Iced coffee ( ca phe sua da): 4/5
Egg rolls 3.25/5
The coffee was pre-made ( espresso part and condensed milk sitting in cups in room temperature).
The egg rolls don't come with any sauce.
They felt heavy on the taro, wish there was more meat, black fungus or even shrimp since it wasn't too flavorful.
Parking is a little tricky in this hidden/ random street of little saigon.
They accept credit cards and would say owner was friendlier than other shops in the area

I wanted to like this place. Rated 4.8 stars and some decent reviews for their banh mi.
I ordered the Banh Mi Dac Biet. What ruined it for me was the bread. It was 100% day old bread. It was cold, tough, and stale. What a disappointment.

Worst chao tom ever. Chao tom are mixed with flour. Does not taste like shrimp at all. The chicken wings were good.
This pork BBQ banh mi was $6.50 after taxes and $1 tip. It was pretty good, too. Five stars for such a low price for fast, good tasting food. They also have a bunch of other stuff other than banh mi, also for low prices. The owner was cool. Def a good hole-in-the-wall to check out for fast and budget friendly food to go.
I tried their pork and their chicken banh mi. I preferred the pork, like char siu. The chicken had a similar seasoning and also consistency as the pork so I don’t know if it was just old
chicken or they purposely rendered the chicken meat to have those qualities. I’m rating it based on the latter. At $5.00 each, the sandwiches are very affordable. Though I wish the baguette would’ve been crustier on the outside. The Vietnamese coffee was good. They also sell many other Vietnamese staples.

Freshly fried Garlic chicken wings, packaged mixed fried rice (pork, chicken, shrimp, and sausage), pork lumpia, & shrimp chips. See pics!
Went early, so not all dishes were out yet. Yet, I asked for the fried chicken & BAM! They went out of their way to make it. The garlic saturated my car (No complaints about that!).
Got 3 bags of shrimp chips. Extra crispy and well fried. Not soaked in oil at all.
Next time, I'll be sure to check this place out at 11a.m., when all the goodies (food) come out on display.
Decent price for amount of food. Worth a checking out for a quick meal.
