163 Vietnamese Sandwich

The 163 Vietnamese Sandwich shop is a must if you love a good bon me, or baguette in Vietnamese. The hours are 7:30-4:00pm on weekdays, open until 6:30pm on weekends. We have tried pretty much every bon me and they never disappoint. But for me I go with the vegetarian duck or salmon. It’s a cash only place, but their baguettes are the best outside of France, and everything is always fresh. The ladies that run the place are extremely friendly with lots of whit to go around. Definitely worth a stop. Bon appetite!

As a child, I was so obsessed with their smoothies that I have very clear memories of this place 10 years later. They put ice cream in there or something absolutely delicious. I do not live in the Boston area, but whenever I visit I have always made a point to stop here.

The local fits only 1 person inside. Kid you not. Only person at a time to order but it’s quick how they make the sandwich. The sandwiches are ok. Large bread but very little content inside for the special banh mi, three slices. There is mayonnaise, pate, daikon and carrots, the cucumber slices were too thickly sliced. No jalapeños or chili slices. The chicken curry banh mi lacks flavour. The fresh grilled pork rolls were good the dipping sauce was decent. Not bad but as someone mentioned Ba Le is hands down better. They take cash only so have it ready.
