San's Sandwiches sits on N Oak Trafficway in Gladstone, run by owner Wendy. The bánh mì lineup covers the full standard range — grilled pork, Vietnamese ham, shredded chicken, char siu-style pork, meatballs, steamed pork, fish cake, and a combination version — each built on carrots, daikon, jalapeños, pate, mayo, and cilantro.
Beyond the sandwiches, the menu goes deep into noodle soups and rice dishes: phở, bún bò Huế, bún mắm, bamboo shoot duck noodle soup, and vermicelli bowls with grilled pork. Appetizers include a Huế-style clear tapioca dumpling platter, steamed shrimp rice cakes, fresh spring rolls, and fried egg rolls, alongside Vietnamese iced coffee served both with condensed milk and black.
The shop has built a following among Kansas City's Vietnamese community and has developed a local reputation for its banh mi, drawing repeat visits from regulars across the city.
