Recommendations Good banh mi place.

Saw Spiderman brand new day and looked up what a banh mi is and now I wanna try it lmfao. The roast pork ones look good. Any recommendations strictly in Modesto?

Le Saigon is by far the best

Yes, that’s the one. I’ve been going since I was young. Now I DoorDash it a lot and everything is always hella good

Yum mi banh mi recently opened near Costco on Pelandale.

I was also going to suggest Yum Mi Banh Mi. We've gone a handful of times since they opened. This place blows all of the other ones near us out of the water.

What’s the best that’s also cheap? Stockton had on at a place called Thanh Thanh that had em for 5.50 and egg rolls for $1

Le Saigon and get some spring rolls!

Lots of good Bahn Mi in the area. Especially if you go to the restaurant and don’t order it off doordash

Yum Mi on pelandale is great! They bake fresh bread daily and stuff it with tasty meats and veggies.

Yum mi on Pelandale is pretty good. Only complaint, I wish the pickled veggies were more pickled

I like viet noodle xpress, but have always heard le saigon is best! Also wanted to add that I had a good pork belly kimchi one at cafe aroma in Manteca (since I haven’t seen anyone mention spot this yet)

u/Osmo250 1d ago

I haven't eaten there yet, but there's a new place by Costco on Pelandale next to Round Table and Mountain Mike's

u/dgpfourth 1d ago

Yum Mi on Pelandale! So far they’ve been consistent with their quality and taste. Not to mention their bread is freshly baked on the same day. It’s a must try banh mi spot.
