Lu's Sandwiches

I love the banh mi here, my go to issue cold cut with more pate. The only things that I don’t like in here that the banh mi always not crispy. Anyway tasted was nice for the price

I came here after seeing a YouTube video talking about OB's best Italian Sub. I heard the bread was fresh baked and wanted mine toasted. Well that's the way to go the bread is soft but flakey. I ordered the Italian sub and ate the whole sandwich on their outdoor patio. Could have eaten another loaf of the bread its really good!

Both the beef bowl and pork bowl were great. Really liked the pineapple peanut sauce, quite tangy. The hot sauce was a bit much for me but I can't handle spicy. Really liked the sesame balls too, came out freshly made and hot.

I have went to different Vietnamese joints across the metro area, and even different continents, and I have yet to find a banh mi that compares to Lu’s. The bread is not stale nor too soft, striking a great balance between crunchiness and pliability. The ingredients are great as well, and what I have come to expect from banh mi. When I order them from other places, I often lament one or more elements missing (for instance, no pâté, no pickled vegetable, cucumbers sliced strangely). I usually order the grilled pork, as I find the seasoning to strike a great balance between savory and spiced (as in having spices—not in the sense of capsaicin), and the resolute freshness of the vegetables. The spring rolls were fine. Frankly I’d rather just pay an extra few dollars to get another sandwich since I feel like the value of them is better 😂 If you are a sandwich enjoyer, you owe it to yourself to pay this establishment a visit. Make sure it’s this particular establishment, as it has had the best quality amongst the locations in my experience.

Tried the cold cut sandwich which comes with pate, ham and other meat, and veggies on a hoagie roll. The bread and the veggies are really what make the sandwich. I recommend you keep the jalapenos even with the seeds, because they add a spicy kick.

A great place to get a sandwich for lunch. One of the better places Bánh mì in the area! It perfectly balances hipster needs and authenticity. Great bread and good meat selection! It closes a bit early and only has fountain drinks, tea and coffee. The coffee is really good

I recently dined at this establishment and would like to share my observations. The sandwich I ordered was quite enjoyable, showcasing a good balance of flavors. However, I found the portion sizes to be disproportionately small, leading to an experience where it felt as though I was consuming more bread than the other ingredients. Additionally, I ordered a Thai tea with a request for easy ice. Unfortunately, the beverage was still filled with an excessive amount of ice, diluting the tea significantly. When I politely asked the staff to reduce the ice further, I was met with a rather dismissive response, suggesting that doing so would result in less tea. This left me feeling frustrated, as I was more interested in the quality of the drink rather than the quantity of ice Moreover, I encountered a lack of professionalism from some of the staff, who displayed a rather unfriendly demeanor. This negative attitude detracted from what could have been a more pleasant dining experience. Overall, while the food had potential, the service and portioning issues left much to be desired. I hope the management can address these concerns to enhance the overall customer experience.

4/5 excellent place for traditional Vietnamese sandwiches and noodle/ rice (Buon Cha) bowls! No frills! Today's service was excellent despite the large order they were preparing also. The front entrance was smashed and broken (looks like damage to property by someone making a bad decision) so it's boarded. 1. Cold cut (small) 4/5:Very savory and well seasoned pate and mayo! Veggie & herb stuffing was generous. The whole sandwich was delightful. Would have loved a drizzle of soy sauce or house meat sauce which is a typical ingredient. I just added a drizzle of the soy fish sauce and it was great (doesn't need it but I prefer it) 2. Mock Duck Noodle Bowl 4/5: Noodles on the lighter proportion, spring lettuce mix (instead of typical romaine/ iceberg/perilla/mint), pickled daikon & carrots, cucumbers, choice of veggies or pork eggroll, and choice of tomatoes (which is a plus). The mock duck is very tender and seasoned well-I recommend this! *Vietnamese fish sauce dressing: Umami but light, very nice. Not too sweet. *Peanut sauce: Light and nutty; not thick nor too sweet. *Soy fish sauce: Lightly sharp and lightly salty. Actually perfectly made for dipping, dressings, and marinades! **Got all the to try and they were all very good. I mixed the entire Vietnamese fish sauce dressing with a spoon on the soy and peanut sauce and it gave the noodle bowl a great flavor. Fifty cents extra for sauce!
