Cali Banh Mi - Convoy St
4425 Convoy St, San Diego, CA
Crema's Take
“Tucked into Convoy St's vibrant food scene, this spot crafts banh mi sandwiches with genuinely excellent bread—soft yet satisfyingly crispy—and generous, flavorful fillings that locals consistently praise, though prices have climbed higher than typical for the neighborhood. Beyond the traditional banh mi, they've carved out a niche with creative specialty drinks like their silky avocado blend and a rotating menu of inventive bowls, making it worth a stop whether you're grabbing a quick lunch or exploring something a bit different.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. Quick-grab spot. Light food on the menu.

One of the better bahn mi sandwiches I've had in San Diego. Bread had a good softness to it while giving a nice crunch and the sandwich was overall really flavorful. Avocado blended drink is a delicious addition as well.

I ordered a Cali bowl with grilled chicken, mixed greens, and Saigon sauce and a lemongrass ribeye bahn mi. My friend and I loved the food! My friend said his bahn mi was a solid 8.5/10. The chicken in my bowl was juicy and tender, and the Saigon sauce was light and flavorful.…
Got my baseline banh mi order (pork loaf w/ pate). Bread is aight, but the fillings were packed! Very tasty and decent price! Well worth the trip! Don't be shy and give these Banh Mi's a try!
My husband ordered four different banh mi. The grilled chicken , the lemon grass , surf & turf, & the Cod. Personally the bread itself was great , but the overall banh mi’s were okay. The lemon grass steak meat was okay and peppered nicely but I could taste lemon grass at all.…
