Nutrition Breakdown: What the Numbers Mean
At 670 calories with 22g of protein, the Vegan Banh Mi is the lightest of the 12 items in the sandwiches lineup with published calories . That works out to about 3.3g of protein per 100 calories - a reasonable protein return for the calories.
The watch-out is sodium: 1560mg is about 68% of the 2,300mg daily limit - fine for a main, worth knowing if the rest of your day runs salty.

Ordering Tips & Smart Swaps
- Lighter lunch: the 1/2 Vegan Banh Mi combo gives you half of this with a deli side - the easiest way to keep the flavour and cut the calories.
- Sodium balance: at 1560mg this is one of the saltier items on the menu. Pair it with a fresh side rather than a second seasoned item, and go easy on salty food for the rest of the day.
- Skip the app markup: ordering this in a delivery app costs about 20% more than the cafe price. Order ahead for pickup in the official app instead - the full breakdown of how Mendo pricing works explains why.
