Amazing experience. We phoned in an order for 3 dozen sandwiches, for pickup at 545pm for a Board of Education meeting ordered around 215pm. The sandwiches were ready on time, and they offered to help us carry them. Everything was delicious and the crowd was pleased. Absolutely will keep DragonEats on the shortlist.

We ordered roasted pork and roasted duck sandwiches. They both are very tasty and have signature pastes. The buns are well toasted and just have enough crunchiness. The rolls are also good, very fresh. Highly recommended.

Best Bahn mi Ive ever had in my life. Everything about this sandwich hit the spot, fresh bread, fresh veggies, and the chicken was 1 of 1. I love the quaint atmosphere and friendly people that work here. Im about to order another one soon as they open

Fresh. Simple. Consistent. I had the 5 spice chicken sandwich, soup, and spring rolls. Arrived early enough to get one of the very limited counter seats. Plenty more standing counter space in the parklet though. Hard to beat a good 10 bahn mi in the Bay Area!

The best place to have a lunch in downtown. I especially like their soup of the day just 3.5 and chicken breast bowl. My kids enjoy the meal too. Very fresh, clean, fast and reasonable food.
