    The bread here is a soft roll with a thin, crispy crust, and it does most of the explaining. This Vietnamese bánh mì shop draws long lines across its San Jose locations, staffed fast enough that the queue moves before you've had time to reconsider your order. The dac biet packs headcheese, cha lua, ham, and pâté into one sandwich, and the buy-four-get-one deal means regulars rarely leave with fewer than five.

    • Dac biet

      “Get the #2 combination, dac biet, which shows off classic Vietnamese charcuterie: chewy headcheese, bologna-like cha lua and ham with a rough pate and mayonnaise.”

Eat Score

The score comes from the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin star outweighs a listicle. When you sort by what's nearby, distance changes the order, never the score.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
