Really delicious soft bread and fillings were wonderful. I did wait over 30 minutes for my sandwich but I'd have to say it was worth the wait.

OMG! One work to describe this restaurant is surprising. Firstly one can order from an app or online which was nice. Secondly the food is amazing. I ordered a grilled chicken banh mi sandwich and an order of the fresh spring rolls. My food was ready at the appointed time. The restaurant itself was very simple in decor and small in size. Since I picked up my food at 4pm I cannot tell you about the dine in crowd. I initially thought that $27 not including tax and tip was a little steep but the portions were quite large. The sandwich was on a large baguette and it tasted yummy from the first bite. The chicken did not seem grilled to me but it was so good I did not care. Not too salty and the vegetables were so fresh. Needless to say I gobbled the whole thing in minutes. The spring rolls were also fairly large and packed with all the good stuff. There shrimp were more like large prawns. Honestly I have not seen prawns this large is any spring roll so far. The pork and the other items in the filling were fresh and tasty. The dipping peanut sauce was quite normal. The only bad thing was there were 3 huge rolls. Ok it wasn't bad.... This was a great meal and I will be back in October to try out their other dishes. A true gem in Palm Desert.

We absolutely love the fresh bread from this place! And the attention from the owners is great, we look forward to many more fresh baguettes! Thank you

I stopped here needing some coffee and something fast to eat for a long drive home. I got the crispy tofu banh mi with an iced coffee with oat milk. It was incredibly delicious!!! I stop here every time I drive through the area now. It's awesome that they have vegan/vegetarian and dairy free options. The banh mi are pretty big too.

food tasted fresh and good some notes i have is that it needed lemongrass or something to be more vietnamese i thought there was way too much rice and not enough protein they were also short staffed and busy so i understand as a food worker myself although i still wish there was more effort put into the meal also thought it was weird there was no prices and my bowl ended up costing $20

Went to Palm springs for a weekend trip and was stuck in traffic for hours so I was hungry and needed to use the restroom. Did a quick Yelp check getting if the frwy and saw this spot. Was curious if a bahn mi way out in palm springs would be any good. It's a fairly small establishment tucked away in a corner next to a fast food joint. I wasn't expecting non Asian owners, county music, and so many different choices. I got the pork bahn mi to go and a Vietnamese coffee. The sandwich was surprisingly good. I asked for the pate which is an extra charge which may have been extra charge. It's a necessary ingredient in a legit bahn mi so it was weird that you have to ask for it but I guess they have to cater to their demographics. The bread still had a good crunch to it when I got back to the house and the flavors of everything went well together. The Vietnamese coffee tasted like it should and was stong as expected. Overall good experience and thinking of getting some for the drive home.

We were surprised by this place! There aren't many tables and the wait was long, but wow was it worth it. We got the spring rolls with peanut sauce as an appetizer. Delicious and fresh! We also ordered the chicken bahn mi, beef bahn mi, and kids chicken and rice plate. Huge portions and so good! The whole time we were eating we kept looking at each other and commenting on how good it was. Definitely worth a visit!

Saw the reviews on Yelp and was craving Bánh mì so I drove over to La Baguette. It's not all that hard to find, tucked between a nail salon and a Pollo Loco. Not a lot of seating, four - four tops. Most of the customers when we arrived were taking their food to go. We were glad we had looked at the menu on the website because the menu on the wall was not very helpful. The owner was literally in the process of replacing the menu on the wall with a nice, updated menu, with pictures of all the food. That will be helpful. One of the first things we noticed when we were ordering is that they make all their baguettes in-house daily. The bread is amazing. I ordered the lemongrass chicken Bánh mì. 100% the BEST Bánh mì I have ever had. My wife got the chicken salad bowl and absolutely loved it. The ingredients were all super fresh. Veggies crispy, chicken perfectly cooked. We also each ordered Vietnamese Coffees. If you love strong coffee, these are a must-try. Friendly service, clean and comfortable, great food. Adding La Baguette to our regular rotation.

Classic hole in the wall eats. Adjacent to a 99 cent store and a Del Taco. Nice folks. Small menu. Low prices. Barb & I had a salad each. Big, fresh & tasty. The mushroom sauce is surprisingly spicy. Home made lemonade was a perfect thirst quencher. A return visit will necessitate that I buy a banh mi.

I'v heard about this place for a while now and decided to come here for lunch the other day. This place is good. Bahn Mi sandwich: 4 stars I think I was persuaded into ordering the wrong menu item for me, but it was still good, and I am looking forward to coming back. I was not provided a receipt, but I think I got the pork shoulder sandwich (Thit Nuong). I arrived at this place during lunchtime and asked the guy at the register what I should order. I told him I was in the mood for a pork sandwich and asked if the Pork Belly or Combo Sandwich was best. He recommended the Pork Shoulder (Thit Nuong) Sandwich since it had a lemongrass marinade - a popular item. Thit Nuong: 4 stars! Yummy Fresh baked bun, fresh veggies (house daikon/carrot pickle, cucumber, jalapeno, cilantro) house mayo, edamame pate and lemongrass pork. Very good. The reason I give 4 star and not 5 is because I did not taste any lemongrass in the pork. In fact, this sandwich tasted like a regular BBQ pork sandwich sans BBQ sauce. The pork was tender, delicious, but did not have lemongrass / asian flavor I was craving. I will gladly come back to try the other sandwiches and some of the other dishes! yummy.
