I'd walked and driven past No Name BBQ Sandwich on Waialae countless times. On the walks during the past week or so, it was always closed. So, on an afternoon stroll, I finally got an opportunity to try this place.
A neighbor at the corner store knew best. I'd asked him about No Name BBQ, and he said their Bahn Mi was good. I didn't know it was a Vietnamese spot. Interesting. He also said that Breadshop across the street was "bangin' ". Which is true, also, I later learned.
This is the #1, the Beef BBQ sandwich. Quick service, and the owner apologized for the wait, which was barely a couple of minutes even though there was a line. She didn't need to apologize, really, but her heart and soul are going into these sandwiches. The #1 is very good. For a bahn mi, it is heavy and meaty and filling. I never thought I'd say that about a Vietnamese sandwich.
I'll be back for more soon.
The restaurant opened in mid-June. It doesn't show up on my phone's maps app.
