Dakao Sandwiches

They've been around forever. I can remember when the banh mi dac biet was under $5. Now it's $7, tax included. Which is still cheap eat in these days and ages. 3 layers of meats, pickles, jalapenos, cilantro. Not bad. Could use more meat. The young man up front is efficient and polite. Oh the bread may not look golden like a French baguette, but it is very crunchy.

4 stars for the banh mi sandwiches here! That's all I would recommend. I come here every time I visit Vegas. There is a tiny little table with 2 chairs. Trust me, you don't want to eat inside. It is grungy. Just grab and go! Bread will still be fresh for the next few hours. I've had it fresh and cold and a day old, I thoroughly enjoyed it! One thing they don't add to sandwiches is mayonnaise like other Vietnamese banh mi shops. Sandwiches run about $6 ish for a 9 inch. Their sandwiches are fantastic fresh-made and even when not fresh, still very good and tasty. It is the BREAD!!! They put a generous amount of pate in each sandwich. I'm sure we can all appreciate that! They also offer the usual items like other similar shops such as nem (cured meat in banana leaves), Vietnamese che, cha (pork loaf), chao long (intestine porridge), pastries, etc. They take cash, credit, mobile pay like Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, Google Pay. Parking isn't a headache. You'll be able to find a spot easily. It is a to-go place so no dinign seats. I didn't take any photos but will do it on my next visit!

Let me clear this is a hole in a wall, no place to eat inside, it's a "to go" place. They have extraordinary bread that makes these sandwiches amazing, they are not expensive and there is always a line, they taste good but the place doesn't look too clean or maintained , the entrance door is dirty and broken, you can't see the kitchen so you can only assume they don't want you because that might turn you off. Most of the days some of the sandwiches you drove 30 minutes to get are not available, so be prepared for a surprise, there is no customer service and they are non apologetic, so if you want an authentic Vietnamese experience they got it here ... I will go back that's for sure 😊
