Baguettea Houston Review: Grilled Pork & Crispy Pork Belly Bánh Mì
I’d heard so many good things about Baguettea that I had to try it. I honestly came in with low expectations, but that BREAD changed my mind fast. By the end of the visit, I was calling this my favorite bánh mì place.

What I ordered
We ordered a grilled pork sandwich, a pork belly sandwich, and passion fruit tea with passion fruit jelly.
Grilled pork bánh mì
Grilled pork is usually my go-to, so I started there. The baguette was big, with a crackly outside and a soft, airy middle. It had that crunch without hurting the roof of my mouth. They didn’t skimp on the filling, either.
I loved the seasoning on the pork, the generous butter and the pickled vegetables. Everything came together so well. If I had to nitpick, I would say I wish the grilled pork was a little more grilled and charred. The bread was a huge part of why this sandwich stood out—I gave the bread a 10/10 in the video.
Pork belly bánh mì
Thomas told me to try the pork belly, and I’m glad I did. The crunchy skin, fat and meat made such a good combination. The seasoning had a nice saltiness without being overwhelming. I loved this one.
Their menu says the pork belly bánh mì is only available on Saturday and Sunday.

What would I order again?
The crispy pork belly sandwich! I wasn’t expecting to like it so much, but I LOVED it.
