" I've visited multiple times, and every experience has been great—except for one. The coffee is always on point! The flavors of the sandwiches are good, but a few times I encountered issues with the amount of meat. I have to constantly remind them I want extra. Overall, the staff is friendly and the place has a nice air of authenticity. I’ll keep coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" As someone who loves exploring different kinds of cuisines, Lee's Sandwiches did not disappoint. Their unique takes on classic Vietnamese dishes have enchanted me. I truly loved their avocado coffee, something I'd never experienced before but fun to try! I would recommend stopping by, though just be mindful of the wait times during peak hours. " (*Curated Review*)

" Decent and quick Vietnamese food. I enjoyed their grilled pork bánh mì, but it was a tad underwhelming compared to what I’ve had elsewhere. The service was prompt, though, and the environment was vibrant. For a quick bite and good coffee, it suffices well. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to trying Lee's Sandwiches, especially after all the buzz. My first visit left me unimpressed. The banh mi was decent at best, but it didn’t have a wow factor. The service was quick, but I feel like the staff could use more training on the menu specifics. I might give it one more shot if I have friends wanting to go. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place has magnificent Vietnamese coffee! I was blown away by its depth of flavor. The atmosphere is cozy, making it perfect for grabbing a quick bite or sitting down to enjoy a meal. The bánh mì was delightful, although I wished for a bit more protein in it. Overall, a fantastic spot that I will return to! " (*Curated Review*)

" Lee's Sandwiches provides a fun, flavorful twist on classic Vietnamese sandwiches. I love experimenting with their interesting drink options—as well as the classics! The ambiance is young and lively, perfect for enjoying a casual meal. My favorite is the grilled pork, and I love that they have vegan options too. " (*Curated Review*)

" The place serves great banh mi. I especially love the grilled pork and the coffee here—it has just the right strength. I have tried similar places but this is a consistent favorite for me. The only trouble I find is some inconsistency in the wait times, which sometimes can be longer than expected. " (*Curated Review*)
