Review from S J.

There is no better sandwich value in Edmonton. Wonderful baguette toasted up, topped with lettuce, shredded carrot, mint and wonderful Vietnamese style meats all for around $5. There is no other sandwich place that compares with this place in terms of value for money combined with quality ingredients.
I love the roasted pork or meatball, especially with the extra peanuts. Tastes so fresh.
Also make great salad rolls. -

Great vietnamese sandwiches. Probably one of my favorites. I really like their bread. Crispy exterior and nice fluffy soft bread inside. Just the right amount of meats and veggies.

This is one of the best places you can get a Vietnamese sub, because it's always fresh and really cheap. Vietnamese subs make a great lunch, as they're a healthy option with all the carrots, parsnips, cukes, and cilantro in there. And like Paula mentioned in her previous review, they're packed with flavour, since they have this special mayo spread they use. Some of the subs also have pate sauce, or liver paste I think, so if you're a vegetarian you may want to check on that. My family and I used to stop by all the time to pick up bagfuls of these things. They also sell drinks like various juices and sodas, and Vietnamese specialty desserts here.

I started purchasing Vietnamese submarine sandwiches at Van Loc because it is almost right next door to the Tear Bar Cafe, where I often head for bubble tea. I had heard a lot about Vietnamese subs and wanted to try them out. Vietnamese subs are usually very inexpensive - just about everything on Van Loc's menu is under $4 - yes, you read that correctly. The sandwiches are served on warm, crisp panini bread adorned with picked carrots, cucumbers, cilantro, a mayonnaise spread, and the meat. Choices include chicken, salami, mixed meats, pork, and a vegetarian version which is the one I normally go for, that uses a chewy bean curd in place of meat. You can choose whether or not to have hot peppers included (a definite "no" for me). The results are flavourful, satisfying, and easy on the wallet. You can wait a bit for your sandwich if there is a lineup, and service is generally friendly. The people who work here don't speak English well, but I was able to make myself understood and even able to have questions answered about some of the ingredients. Sandwiches are served warm in a paper bag - I generally eat mine as I stroll through Chinatown on the way to my office.
