Diem Eatery
79 Atlantic Ave, Brooklyn, NY
Crema's Take
“Diem Eatery is a Vietnamese gem in Brooklyn where the banh mi is genuinely exceptional—locals rave about the perfectly balanced herby sauce, quality ingredients, and generous portions that feel like a steal. Beyond the sandwiches, they're doing creative work with specialty drinks like egg coffee and homemade gelato in interesting flavors, all served by genuinely warm owners (John and Chi) who make you feel like a regular the moment you walk in.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks. Quick-grab spot. Pastries and light food on the menu.

The tofu Bánh mì is delicious (get the jalapeños and sriracha!) and portion size is HUGE. 1/2 is basically the size of a normal full size sandwich. The green papaya salad was also bangin’ but I forgot to take a photo. The atmosphere of the place is extremely pleasant - so cozy…
Best Banh Mi in NYC!! The classic banh mi is so delicious! And the chicken one is so tender. Amazing homemade gelato too! Really interesting flavors :) John and Chi are also the most welcoming and kind people. Such a neighborhood gem!!
Great banh mi sandwich. Good ingredients and satisfying size. One of the best I've had in NYC. Source: I'm Vietnamese and grew up in San Jose, CA
My favorite banh mi spot! Perfect bread consistency, amazing flavor, fresh ingredients. The portions are generous and so worth the price! I’ve also enjoyed their egg coffee and vermicelli bowl. This is one of my go-to spots to bring people to. :)
