Best place to get your south East Asian deli meat. You can find pho beef ball fresh to frozen. Steam cha lua (Vietnamese deli cold cut). They also have fresh deep fried cha lua.
Seriously delicious food to order (subs, pho, bun) in addition to the small grocery and deli
Kim Chau used to be our go to. We would literally order 7-8 subs each time we went. While I was pregnant we went on an almost weekly basis. Over time I noticed that the quality as well as quantity is sliding lower and lower. The subs used to be packed full of meat and veggies. We used to order both the beef sate as well as the cold cut subs.
We stopped ordering the sate beef as they started putting a small line of beef that was cold and tasted strongly of cinnamon (they changed the recipe). Currently we just order the cold cut and even then I find that they are starting to reduce the amount of same. I wish I had a before and after picture to show same.
Pricewise Kim Chau used to be hard to beat at $5 a sub. That increased to $6 a sub. When we went in last week, it is now $7 a sub. For the price as well as food quality it kind of makes it hard to justify making the trip to order same.
You can give it a try and see what you think. I think we may be looking for our new banh mi (sub go to) in the interim. On another note the customer service has waxed and waned throughout the years. The current guy working at the front is much more friendlier and courteous than his previous female counterpart.
A hidden gem of a store. The subs are very good and are a great price. They have a good menu selection of soups, subs and entrees. There is a good selection of frozen and dried Vietnamese foods to buy from the freezers and shelves.
Great customer service. We like to make our own banh mi (Vietnamese subs) at home so this place was perfect as they sell the ingredients separately. They sell the pickled carrots and their butter sauce in a small container and the bread too! Great customer service!
