Reviews
Interior was similar to the stores in Eden in Falls Church so it was very familiar, but of course with their own personal designs.
Aside from their menu they also offer stuff like nem chua and some ready meals like bún thịt nướng and bánh cuốn.
I look forward to trying more of their stuff.
Update (11/5/2025):
I gave them a second chance, once again getting multiple sandwiches. There is something greatly lacking in their flavor profile that I hope they can amend because I do want to see them succeed. Especially for their grilled meat banh mi it is missing the lemongrass flavor and darker color that people expect from that particular item. The service is good and the people are nice.
Would not recommend the food here!
The issue for me is balance. The sandwich is great but a bit heavy on the pickles radish. Not really any carrot. Minimum cucumber, and a reasonable amount of cilantro and jalapeño but it’s drowned in the pickled onions.
I’ll definitely comeback. There’s an eggplant Bahn mi that sounds enticing. And i hope they grow and get that tiny bit better
If anybody is wondering this sandwich shop has no connection to the former Ba Le, which was across the street in Rockville they are completely different places.
The current Ba Le is very obviously a franchise and has prepackaged meats, spring rolls, and other fixings available for purchase in their refrigerators. The store is very clean and polished, and has electronic ordering menus, although that system isn’t currently working.
I ordered a steak Bahn Mi and asked for extra pickled vegetables and jalapeño. As you can see from the picture, the pickled vegetables were cut in an unusual way, in big chunks and it was very difficult to tell whether they had been pickled at all. The steak also was very bland. I’m used to Vietnamese sandwich shops generally having a good deal a flavor which I did not find with the sandwich I received. They didn’t put the pate, pork roll etc. on my sandwich despite asking for everything. The bread, which, is made in house was very good.
Ba le has an unusually large number of vegan options, and some nontraditional sandwich options, which look very good. They also have some soups available, but the only place you find them in the menu is under a combo section not as individual selections. They also have a large selection of smoothies, macrons and other items for purchase.
I’m hoping that these missed steps are simply from opening a new shop, and that they are quality control will improve and start delivering a better product. I believe they have the ability to put out a good product and perhaps that will happen. My concern is with it being a franchise, it may not have the genuine feel and taste of other Vietnamese sandwich shops
Bánh mì: The main event of course, the flavor is good, but the ratio of bread to fillings needs to be improved (more fillings please! Hence 4 stars).
There are also a lot of Vietnamese street foods stables like different chè, bánh giò, bánh bao, and ingredients to make your own bánh mì at home.
Also, soy milk will be better with less sugar. The sugar is overpowered the drink.
Either way, I’m grateful for more Vietnamese place to open in Rockville.
There are a few standing frig stocked with cooked ‘deli’ meats, pork floss and in house made ‘Vietnamese’ butter mayo to make your own sandwiches. There were also hot and cold desserts and other savory hot items available for purchase as well. Now onto the food. My review is just solely on the items I had. The sandwiches for me were just ok. The bread had a nice crispy outer and soft inner. But the pate, mayo, jampon, headcheese and steamed pork slices were subpar as far as flavor. I ate half of it and was done. The vietnamese iced coffee was again just ok. I also ordered an avocado smoothie which was a disappointment. It was very water down and lacking in flavor. Honestly, could have been better with more avocado and a tad more condensed milk. On top of that ice was added and that further diluted it. I also purchased all the side meats to make my own sandwiches at home. Judging from the sandwich I had, I would guess the meats are going be mediocre as well. Spent about $85 for everything. There are better banh mi places in the DMV areas. Would I frequent this establishment again? I came. I tried. I’m good!
I ordered #1 Banh Mi, the bread tasted stale & was kinda hard. (I think they gave me old bread)
There were no pickled carrots that normally come with the pickled mix veggies. The banh mi in Wheaton taste more authentic at Pho & Banh Mi Saigonese.
