Van Sandwiches (Gio Cha Huong Que)

Outstanding value for money. Such a rarity these days to walk into a place that is fueled just by passion for what they do. We were told by the lovliest lady at the front desk that most stuff was made in-house and the sandwiches are more for passion than for profit and oh my - the passion shows. Bang on flavour those little sandwiches pack! Not much seating place so we took the sandwiches back to the car in the parking to eat and 5 mins in we walked back into the store for round 2. Definitely coming back!!!!

The Banh Mi at this shop is some of the best in Toronto. Bread was very crispy and soft and the veggies were very fresh. I got an assorted and shredded chicken/pork and they were both delicious. Hidden gem and worth trying!

Van is so sweet. I came in with only $12.xx in my pocket and I wanted 2 sandwiches so I asked if her prices included taxes. She said yes and that she didn’t care if I didn’t have enough money and could just pay what I can. I was like, wow, what a nice lady! She told me she makes everything in house except for the bread. She also told me she knows how to make really good bread but because business was slow, it wasn’t worth it for her to make. She doesn’t do any advertising. So I just told her about yelp. Unfortunately due to her location she’s not getting a lot of foot traffic like the Jane and Finch shops. I ordered an assorted cold cut sandwich - $6 and a sardine sandwich - $6. Unfortunately the meatball sandwich was not available at the time. The sandwiches were the size of my forearm. I wish they were toasted but of all the banh mi shops I’ve had in the GTA, no one toasts their bread. Is it a California thing? Both sandwiches had a good amount of filling. However, I’d rather have more filling than bread so I like my bread to be half the size with the same amount of filling. I would definitely return to try the other sandwiches she offers.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely amazing chicken sandwiches at Van Sandwiches! The chicken is perfectly crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, with seasoning that hits all the right notes. The ingredients are fresh and the flavor combinations are spot on. The brioche bun is the perfect touch, adding a soft and buttery complement to the crunchy chicken. The service is friendly and quick, making the whole experience even better. Highly recommend Van Sandwiches for anyone looking for the best chicken sandwich in Toronto!

Been here a couple of times, very tasty assorted banh mi, very good mixture of filings. They recently increased the prices, hopefully they can maintain the current price. Will go back to try other banh mi.

My mom introduced me to this place and wow! Absolutely delicious Banh Mi (especially their pate and butter) and their fried Vietnamese sausage (cha chien) is amazing. Service was amazing from the owner and employee.
