Stopped by right before they closed to pick up banh mi and some meat pies. Parking was not bad off to the side streets from taravel. Ambiance is same as old donut shop that was located there previously. When i arrived, the staff was welcoming and told me not to worry and can always call ahead to let them know and they will wait and make order while i drive. There were special meat pies today (beef curry in addition to the regular pork). I got both to indulge in. The banh mi combo has lots of meat, pickled veggies and thick pate. $9.50 each and with meat pies at $3.95 each, total came to $17-ish. Everything was tasty. Will definitely return.

Found the secret hidden gem "California Bakery" at Sunset area. The pate chaud (meat pie) is awesome! Little mom-and-pop bakery got you covered with all kind of hours made goodies:Banh Mi, BBQ pork bun, curry pastry, Empanadas ,donuts, fruit tarts, cakes and Viet coffee! The owners were super friendly. The store is very clean with soup seats. We had to get a second meat pie to go after tasted one. The old fashion also legit!

Have been here twice now and the bahn mi has been good booth times. They don't skimp on the meat, which is great. Small selection though, and the donuts while they're sweet with a great texture are a bit on the greasy side. Service is excellent and it's more of a grab and go location than one focused on instagrammable decor. Would recommend.

I really rate this myself as a 3.5. Nothing wrong with it. Fresh, friendly. What nudged it to a 4 was all the police fitting into their stereotype, eating doughnuts. I found it on the Toogoodtogo app. It located about a block of the 28 bus stop and boy, Taravel is alot further south than I thought it was. It is across from the Safeway, and when I was there, there was major street construction going on. The L line now stops at West Portal and you have to take the L bus. That is a hassle. If I was in the area and wanted traditional doughnuts, I'd come here. I guess I was hoping, since someone said it was a Vietnamese bakery, they might have something a little different. Very good traditional doughnuts but nothing that I can't get in my neighborhood. If you live in the area, support local businesses. That area is TORN UP!

My husband and I were craving Banh Mi sandwiches in our new neighborhood...he randomly found this place on Yelp, and I'm so glad we did. Wow, I can't believe this used to be Victor's Bakery back in the day (insert tear faced emoji here). RIP. Anyway, we got banh mi's for lunch here!! They were terrific!!!! I loved my grilled pork one. My husband got the combo, and loved his too. It only took about 10 mins for them to make the sandwiches - amazing. A little more on the expensive side, I think $8 for the sandwich, but worth every penny. Can't wait to try their other items soon!!!

I have never seen this place but a friend recommended it to me. Very clean and open place w many different options. From breakfast items to lunch to even dinner options. I ordered a combo banh mi! It was so good! They added a lot of meat which I liked and have noticed other places not doing anymore. I wish it had a little less patte but that is just my preference. I like to be able to taste the rest of the ingredients. They have a kiosk along with a register so the service was fast. Cash or card here. Anywho, will be coming back and ordering more items!!!

Such a gem in the area! -Meat Pies (Pate Chaud)- Curry Beef and Pork/Onion. The pastry is so flaky and yummy! A must try! -Banh Mi- the bread is fresh with that crusty exterior. I thoroughly enjoyed the Grilled Pork one. -They are on the TooGoodtoGo app. Generous portion of the days leftovers. Lots of donuts and sweets! The couple who run this place are SO SWEET! I definitely am a loyal customer and will visit often just for the Banh Mi!
