Vietnam Express has already attracted fans thus far, with a 4.5-star rating out of 19 reviews on Yelp.

Dorcas H., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on September 24th, said: "I have been needing a place with good banh mi, so I'm glad Vietnam Express is now in the neighborhood! At just $5-6 for a decent sized sandwich, this is going to become one of my favorite lunch spots."

Yelper Trang N. added: “I've had my fair share of banh mi, pho, bun in my lifetime, and since they are my childhood staples. I'm so glad Vietnam Express popped up so close to my office! I can walk down during lunch.”

And Sarah S. said: "I'm happy with this new place and location. I ordered a grilled pork banh mi to go. I got home and didn't get to eat it for another hour and it was still delicious."
