Tom McGhan: The mayo they add to their bahn mi is a touch that helps set these apart from places like Lee's. At just $2.75 a pop for most choices, you can afford to get a second (or third!) to try!
Paulina: Cheap and delicious Vietnamese sandwiches and miscellaneous items to go. Cash only.
Chrissy: Cash only. Awesome lunch that's cheap, quick and portable for hikes, picnics, or days at the beach. They open early so you can always pick up in the morning to eat later.
