Saigon Char-Broil

After reading several reviews on Unilocal and TripAdvisor, we thought we would try it out. We’re big fans of viet subs, especially after enjoying many in Vancouver, and we’ve been craving delicious carby goodness that a banh mi is. We stopped by before a movie around 8:15 pm.
I ordered a tofu sub and my husband ordered a pork sub. We also ordered a prawn salad roll as an appie. Food came quickly. The subs were definitely different from what we were used to and unfortunately not a good different. There was a mysterious paste in them and the soggy onions and French bread didnt add to its flavour. Hoping the salad rolls would be better, we eagerly reached for those but again, were disappointed by the lack of flavour.
We can honestly say we’ve had better viet subs at Safeway and better salad rolls at T&T. For the combined price of $ 28 for 2 subs and 2 salad rolls, we hoped for better.
I would rather write good reviews over bad ones but, I wouldn’t eat here again so it’s worthwhile writing. Eat at A&W if you want to grab something to eat before a movie.

This was quite good I tried the spring roll and the charbroiled beef. The spring roll had good flavour the roll was a bit over cooked and a little dry. The charbroiled beef was a bit over cooked as well. The service is down the middle. For a place to eat in a mall this a step in the right direction. Great flavours, good portions, a good price, a great place out of the norm.

Went here based on reviews
Love Phở and noodle/​spring rolls
One reviewer raved about the grilled pork sub
Not a sub lover but it sounded great
Our lovely server suggested I step away from my favorites and try one.
Omg best advise ever, dreaming about when I can go back
The surrounding dishes looked and smelled incredible

My wife and I come here every time we go to the theater in the same mall. We love their tofu noodle soup. Large bowls with lots of vegetables and generous amounts of tofu. It’s available with chicken stock or vegetable stock, just tell your server what you prefer. Excellent service and very friendly with good prices.

I initially had only had a Banh-​mi sandwich back when I wrote my first review:
«Finally! A great Vietnamese BANH MI sandwich place in Victoria! Right across the parking lot from the SilverCity movie theatre at Tillicum Mall, this place has some very quick service – we had 30 minutes before our movie and we were finished with time to spare.»
We have been back more times and it has become my personal favourite Vietnamese place. I have a not-​so-​secret love for vermicelli dishes, and have greatly enjoyed the vermicelli, pork/​chicken/​beef/​etc. and FABULOUS springroll dish (item 6c). The springrolls, specifically, are the only authentic ones in town.
