Good sandwiches, good boba drinks. I'm glad this place opened up. It's a unique flavor that i think everyone will enjoy. The bread is fresh and the ingredients all seem to compliment each other. Well done folks. Oh and they are all nice there.

I haven't eaten too many Banh Mi sandwiches but this was the best by far. I ordered the shaken beef. Very fresh tasting ingredients and outstanding bread. The restaurant was very clean and modern. The service was very friendly. I will definitely be back to try more.
(4)Maickon C.
This was a great find. The food is great and the price is good for the amount of food you get. I ordered one of their rice noodle bowls, and it was more then expected. Will have to visit this place again. The place has a nice atmosphere too. So go check it out!
(5)Reggina G.
When I first seen this place, I thought oh cool now I'll have a pho place near my work. So when I first came in I was surprised that they didn't have pho. So I ordered the fresh spring rolls and bun noodle salad and I was impressed. The amount of food for the price is crazy ! The salad is huge! Then I tried the banh mi sandwich .. With egg AND jalapeños AND THE BREAD !! Fireworks!!! It's kinda amazing!! I love this place and I'm a regular here
(5)Heather H.
Quickest, cleanest Vietnamese restaurant we've ever been to. New kind of food so delicious.
(5)Viviana C.
Although I have only checked in here 2x I've returned more than that amount after my 1st experience. Hoping my family does not read this and ask why I didn't bring them with me or why I did not bring some home. I have loved everything I have eaten here thus far: egg rolls, spring rolls, potstickers, noodle salad bowls (various combinations) #1, #3, #4, #5, #8 fresh squeezed limeade, mango smothie, and SNOW! Living in this hot desert climate you can imagine why the last mentioned is amazing as a dessert!

Going to get my complaint out of the way early: this place needs to open new locations. It's in North Phoenix, and unfortunately that isn't the most convenient place for me. Fortunately I had an errand near-ish to it, so I made it a point to go here. The prices are very reasonable. At least for the consumer. The quality exceeded what I paid for it. I was a little worried it was going to be small, but it was pretty much a foot-long banh mi. The combination/ratio of all the ingredients was absolutely perfect, and the flavor was so good I wanted to get another. By another, I mean something like a 10-foot banh mi for an office party. The bread was excellent, but I love Vietnamese bread. It's extra crisp on the outside, and airy-soft in the middle. The flavors are layered, so you get an explosive burst in your mouth, yet it all comes together harmoniously. I really wanted to try something from the shaved ice menu, but that will be for next time. I think I'm going to have to come up with an excuse to go to North Phoenix again. And soon.
(5)Vartan C.
I just wanna say the owner of this restaurant is one of the best I delt with and there workers the guys were closed and they still opened the doors for me to get shaved snow I will for sure be back to this restaurant thank u guys
(5)Brain B.
Banh mi? It's a Vietnamese take on French sandwiches, and let me tell you, they knock it out of the park. I like a banh mi as much as the next guy, but this restaurant, kills it. I've tried most of the items on the menu, nothing beats the BMB special (grilled pork with pâté with pickled daikon and carrots with TWO fries eggs!) and accompanied by either spring rolls or lotus root salad (large portions btw) and wash it all down with their famed cafe sua da (Vietnamese iced coffee). Super friendly and helpful staff, you'll see what one taking about.
(5)Marian R.
Tried out this spot today and it was yummy! I had a ginger peach tea and a grilled chicken noodle salad bowl. The dressing was awesome. The establishment was clean. I will definitely return!
(4)Scott R.
The highly rated reviews enticed my wife and I to try this place and we can't wait to come back. Located in a strip mall near the I-17, Banh Mi is very casual and the staff is very helpful. It was apparent we were not familiar with this food yet they explained the menu and provided great recommendations. We ordered the pork sandwich and a noodle dish to share. In hindsight, one sandwich would have enough in that the portion size are generous. We also ordered the salmon roll appetizer, which filled us up too. That was really good although I thought it was light on the salmon. The food was great and I cant wait to try the other selections. One thing I would not try again is the green tea w/milk drink. Maybe others enjoy it yet I thought it tasted like a cup of perfume. My wife ordered a chai drink and that was really good. All in all, great place to have close by and will come back with the kids next time.
(4)Meenu D.
Must go for their amazing bahn mi sandwiches. Just the right bread with the crunch on the outside and soft roll on the inside and the pickled veggies with heat with pate .. Must also try their bubba smoothie with tapioca bubbles. Have not had a better bahn mi ..been there multiple times.
(5)Barnabas L.
I need to try other things here as well, but their Classic Banh Mi was good. The bread was great, not too hard. The Pate was delicious, it's been awhile since i've had some good pate on a bahn mi. It actually brought me back to my days in seattle....but i won't start to compare that sandwich to this anyfurther. I feel like they could have been a little more generous in the construction/ingredients of the bahn mi...I mean overall though it was good. Glad to have a good bahn mi place close to my side of town. I hope to try more things on the menu soon.
(4)Karen H.
I want to cry tears of joy each time I dig into the Chicken and Pork Noodle bowl. As good as it gets!
(5)Liem H.
Banh mi Bistro has taken Vietnamese sandwich and appetizers to a whole new level. Banh mi bistro has now set a very high standard for sandwiches. Their new fresh ingredients and innovation could only be explained when you order their sandwich. I will be there every week.
(5)Carolyn F.
Read about this shop on Yelp. It had rave reviews for being open just a short time. I was in Phoenix for the day and was looking for a quick lunch stop. It's a little out of the way in a isolated strip mall but you forget about the location once you walk through their doors. The restaurant is clean and modern, the staff friendly and welcoming. I ordered the Classic Banh Mi and Green Papaya Salad. I can see why this place has 5 stars. The sandwich was delicious. Crisp, light, airy baguette, fresh veggies and flavorful meat. I actually felt that the layer of meat was too thin but it was still very good. The salad was crisp and refreshing topped with shrimp. Wish there was a Banh Mi Bistro in my neck of the woods so I could eat my way through their whole menu.
(5)Tina T.
Great little gem just down the street - have a feeling we will be regulars. The banh mi grilled pork sandwich was amazing. The bread was slightly crispy outside, soft and chewy inside. The meat was delicious and tender and the veggies were fresh and made it. We also tried the spring rolls and lotus salad - quite delightful! The boba tea and smoothie was also really a treat. Clean, friendly, fast, affordable - what more could you ask for? Oh, maybe a kids size selection?...
(5)Candida B.
My husband and I had lunch here today during their soft opening. We asked John, the owner, to basically pick for us what we should eat for our first time. We were starving so we asked for 2 appetizers and 2 main dishes. We had the Firecracker Salmon Rolls ($5), the Spring Rolls ($5), the Noodle Bowl with Pork (which is noodles and salad together, topped with the meat of your choice ($8), and the BBQ Pork Banh Mi (sandwich) ($5). Each item came with it's own sauce and we tried them all and even mixed them all at once with some of their red pepper flake chili sauce. You can't go wrong mixing those flavors. Everything was DELICIOUS! It was fast casual Vietnamese food - healthy, fresh, and left us feeling satisfied and good about what we had put in our bodies. The staff is friendly and helpful. The location is right off the I-17 behind the Lamar's Donuts. Try it (and all the sauces) and you will not be disappointed. We can't wait to go again!
(5)Galaxie A.
Eating a sandwich at Banh Mi Bistro is an experience full of flavor and texture. The kind that makes go "mmm.." with your eyes closed as you take a bite. The meat is savory and the baguette is fresh, but soft enough that the crust doesn't tear up your palate like most baguette sandwiches do. The space is bright, well-designed, and there's a positive, friendly atmosphere when you walk in. The successful combination of simplicity and quality makes this place a gem, even in their early beginning as a small, family-owned Vietnamese eatery. I only wish there was a Banh Mi Bistro near my house.
(5)Rosie R.
I have gone here for lunch two days in a row and am love!! The firecracker salmon rolls and spring rolls are amazing! Loved the classic and BMB special are great sandwiches and are only $6 a piece! I tried a few specialty drinks but the taro smoothie with boba is my favorite. The coconut shaved ice is pretty fantastic too! The customer service is top notch and very helpful!
(5)Diana G.
I absolutely love this little Vietnamese eatery! Iv only been twice so i was surprised when i walked in the second time and the cashier already remembered me. Iv gotten the pulled pork sandwich, grilled pork sandwich, and the egg rolls. Every bit has been delicious! Full of flavor and good fresh ingredients. The jasmine green tea is also rly good. It just adds to that healthy, fresh, Vietnamese feeling. $5 for a big sandwich I can only eat half of, this little spot is well worth the visit! It's clean. It's got a cute, comfy little sitting area in the back w games. The staff are very friendly and fast. I feel rly good when I eat here. It's definitely become one of my new favorite sandwich spots.
(5)Jerry D.
The bread is to die for! Crunch yet not dry...Sandwiches are a great value and this is the authentic Vietnamese eatery...Best spring rolls with peanut dipping sauce. Get the classic Banh mi special sanwhich...the fried egg takes this to a whole new and awesome level. The food would be well worth it at twice the cost...so take advantage of this unique authentic and friendly Bistro...and enjoy eating your way through the menu. I will be back many times now that I found this gem.
(5)Ness O.
Mmmmm bmb special is so yummy and has a lot of flavors! I want to try their other sandwiches so I will come back for more!!!
(5)Emley L.
The banh mi here is absolutely delicious! Had the banh mi bo luc lac or shaken beef and the flavor was on point. I was so full from the sandwich! Would recommend this to anyone who needs a quick bite to eat during their lunch break! They have desserts and boba drinks too.
(5)Calvin D.
I've been here twice now and it's been great both times. The owner is really friendly and service was quick. The first time I came I got the noodle salad bowl which you can't really mess up but the fish sauce that came with was really good which is probably the most important part. This time I got a classic banh mi and my friend got a shaken beef and we split it. The sandwiches were really good I really liked the pate in the classic. It's a really far drive but I'll make it again.
(5)Taylor G.
They serve boba tea and just opened today 12/16/14 really clean and modern look people were nice
(5)Brandon C.
Delicious food, fast and friendly service, awesome place! The spring rolls are amazing as are the bahn mi, everything is really good actually lol.
(5)Jeremy H.
Very good fast food lunch spot. I stopped by on sales calls today. The pork meatball sandwich was very delicious and the lemon ginger tea was refreshing. The prices are affordable and the design is very clean and modern feeling. Two thumbs up
(4)E W.
Finally! Good banh mi available all day long! The sandwiches and sides that we've tried so far have all been super good and we'll priced. The paté is made in house and is wonderful. For sure worth your time.
(5)Sierra P.
Wow wow wow! This place was so delicious. The bread was nice and crunchy and the veggies were fresh! We got the grilled chicken and the bmb. We also got the potstickers which were the best I've ever had. If we lived closer, we would come here all the time.
(5)Toan D.
They are missing whole entired ideology of our Vietnmese Famous French Banh Mi Sandwiches from the meat to the bread, mainly Pate & Egg Yolk Mayonnaise. The Prices are way to high for. Lee Lee Sandwiches in Chandler is very respectable.
(1)Robert G.
Delicious fresh food on light, fluffy baguettes! Amazing flavor, great service. Leave room for shaved ice! This is what they serve in heaven...
(5)Caroline C.
This has become one of my favorite places. I've been to Lee's Sandwiches and it's nothing compared to BMB. BMB's ingredients are far more superior and much more tasty. My favorite has to be the GRILLED PORK BANH MI and I love the FIRE CRACKER SALMON ROLLS and the Viet coffee with the condensed milk is to die for. Everyone needs to try this place. I will be a regular here for sure.
(4)Bryan B.
I found this place on Yelp and it lived up to the great reviews! I had the Vegetarian Spring Rolls and the Classic Banh Mi...Super Fresh and delicious!!! I'll be returning for sure!!! I definitely wanna come back and try the BMB Special and Boba!!!
(5)Nicole H.
Love this place. Bahn mi sandwiches are awesome and better than a $5 foot long that you would get somewhere else. All the food tastes really fresh and don't forget to the iced Vietnamese coffee, my favorite!!!
(5)Nina P.
I cannot believe I have not review this place. I love banh mi. It's a classic, traditional, Vietnamese sandwich. However, it is difficult to locate a cafe that serves it here in Phoenix. I normally go to Lee's Sandwich which is far out of range for me. I think this places serves better sandwiches than Lee's. It' s a must try for all!
(5)B M.
Great staff, kid friendly and excellent sandwiches. I could eat here everyday. I've always enjoyed banh mi sandwiches more than Pho, so it's nice to have a sandwich only shop with good appetizers and desserts.
(5)Christa M.
Went in for lunch and I fell in love!! Cute little hip restaurant and very comfortable. The noodle bowl was amazingggg! I had it with chicken and it was very tasty! I will definitely be back for some more!
(5)Kathryn L.
Fantastic place - the food was great, service was quick and the place is very clean! We had the potstickers, noodle salad bowl, classic banh mi and the shaken beef, taro boba and coconut snow fluff - it was all fantastic - very fresh and delicious - can't wait to come back!!!
(5)Setasha B.
Excellent, fresh food! Great selection, clean restaurant. Such an unexpected, wonderful find!
(5)Bob D.
Clean? Check! Cute inside? Check! Amazing food? MEGA CHECK! Hungry, I got the BBQ Pork Banh Mi, pork pot stickers and a MANGO SMOOTHIE with boba. I never had boba, but liked it. The smoothie was worth the trip. My mouth is still on fire from the peppers in the sandwiches, but by far the best sandwich I've ever had. Fresh toppings and a nice, clean taste.
(5)Burke P.
Clean place. The staff friendly and helpful. My family tried and shared the classic bang mi sandwich. Wonderful fresh flavors and the French bread nice and crusty. We tried also the fresh spring rolls delicious my Filipino wife said. Tried the Lotus root salad this was my favorite and stood out such fresh and sweet flavor combinations! My daughter tried the strawberry shaved snow with strawberry boba and chocolate glaze . so sweet. Reminded us and similar to Filipino halo halo.
(4)Kevin F.
Don't let the large number of five-star reviews here concern you; they are legitimate! Fabulous sandwiches, friendly staff, low prices. There is zero atmosphere, if they are not busy it's as quiet as a library, but who cares when the food is so good.
(5)My N.
The banh mi tastes okay and is overpriced (around 8$). Tastes a lot like Lee's Sandwiches. Dense bread, but very long sandwich. Their noodle dish, healthier than I'm used to, is also overpriced and tastes okay. If you want really good banh mi, try the ones at Pho Avina for only $3.99. Nice people, but I will not be going back here.
(2)Erik A.
I can't say enough how much I love the Food here. Great prices, the Vietnamese Iced Coffee is the best.
(5)Rebecca H.
This place is a hidden gem! The food is fantastic. Everything I've tried is so good but the Shaken Beef is my go-to. It's ridiculous. Staff is awesome - super nice.
(5)D R.
Very very very clean. First time there. Had their boba drink. It's not wow amazing. But also I'm not Vietnamese, so I wouldn't know much about taste. But I like the fact the kitchen was very clean!!!
(5)Carly F.
One of the best Vietnamese sandwiches I have ever had! And to top it off the guy who took our order (I'm pretty sure the owner) was so nice! Definitely going back.
(5)Kim C.
Will be back! Food is spicy, flavorful and fast. We got the classic banh mi and the shaken beef. Loved the shaken beef and would order again. The flavor of the classic was not to my liking but sure lots of people would enjoy. They also have milk teas in different flavors so we had coconut milk tea which was a nice sweet touch to our spicy meal.
(5)Mary K.
So far I have tried the vegetarian and the chicken bahn mi. They have been very accommodating to modification requests. Found the food to be fresh and tasty. Will definitely continue to go sample their yummy menu. They are also very gracious!
(5)Amy B.
Great food. I was pleased to walk in and see the former managers of Little Saigon in downtown Glendale, so I had a feeling I wasn't going to be disappointed. My husband and I split a vermicelli noodle bowl and the Shaken banh mi. The ingredients were fresh and a wonderful mix of meat and veggies. We will definitely be back.
(5)Shiriam G.
Great clean place. It opened about 4 months ago. It is more of a panera feeling place, not a restaurant with waiters. Friendly accommodating staff, great prices for the banh mis. Ordered #7 (the steak banh mi) it was warm and delicious. My husband ordered the classic, great flavor. The potstickers were also very good. This has become one of my favorite places to visit. Just FYI, the banh mis are very big, I believe they are more than 12 inches long.
(5)Joanne T.
pretty good vegetarian spring rolls (there's a little taro in it, yum!) but a little pricey for $5 and the green papaya salad was pretty bomb as well, I didn't even use the fish sauce!
(4)J C.
Awesome and authentic food! We had the pulled poker and BBQ pork banh mi and potstickers. Bread was perfectly crunchy on the outside and light and soft on the inside. Vegetables were crunchy, not overly sweet or vinigar tasting. Meats were perfect. Potstickers had great texture and flavor and the dipping sauce was perfect. The sandwich in the picture is only half and it was $7. Excellent value and we had a fun chat with the owner. The service was excellent. This is a must eat place.
(5)Karen K.
Wow, this place is good. Had the BBQ pork banh mi, shaken beef banh mi, papaya salda, and the noodle bowl. The shaken beef is amazing! Super tender and flavorful! The noodle bowl is huge and you get 2 choices of meat/veggies. Portion sizes are huge even on the papaya salad. We were looking for a place just like this for the longest time and I'm so glad we finally found our go-to spot!
(5)Thomas M.
I have been coming for Vietnamese food since John and his lovely were in downtown Glendale.... I easily will eat here once a week... The food is simply divine.... the people are great... It is so fresh and everything is done so well... the decor, the awesome deliverables... You could close your eyes and just pick blind from the menu and you will not be disappointed.... The prices are so reasonable I feel guilty ordering... Top notch no lie ---- you are going to love it....
(5)Dang H.
Such a great place. New and amazing ways of types of banh mi. I love it ! Such a friendly environment as well!
(5)Sara L.
I drove by and decided to stop for lunch. Wow! They deserve 5 stars. The cleanliness of the restaurant, the quality of service and friendliness and quality of food is magnificent. I got the shaken beef Vietnamese sandwich and yum! You can just taste that it's made with love! :) I also got the green tea milk with boba for the first time it's awesome. John is excellent he has to be the owner or manager. I will definitely be having lunch here again and bring all my friends! Thank you John for such a lovely lunch
(5)Levi D.
The BMB special is worth trying! Best banh mi special I've eaten in Arizona! Happy to have it open in the north Phoenix region.
(5)Randy C.
My Wife and I have been here 2 times, and both times we were amazed with how fresh and delicious our sandwiches were. The first time I had the Shaken Beef sandwich, & the second time I had their Pork Meatball. These sandwiches were seriously OFF THE HOOK ! Quite possibly the best sandwiches I have ever tasted. My third visit will be spent feasting on the Classic Banh Mi original, as I have already planned my return. I can't wait !
(5)Kathy L.
Love this place! It's a beautiful restaurant. Always clean and tidy. They have a communal table with games for an impromptu game night! The staff is friendly & knowledgeable. The food is incredible and you get a lot for the price! I had the classic banh mi along with their coconut milk tea. YUMMY! I go there weekly now but can't stray away from the classic! I've tried different drinks though--their peach ginger iced tea, green milk tea and their passion fruit iced tea....all delicious! I can't get enough of this place! It's a must!!
(5)John S.
A damned good sandwich for very reasonable money, I thought, and milady wife enjoyed her salad/noodle bowl, too....very definitely makes this place one of the go-to joints in the 'hood for a quick, cheap and tasty lunch. No pho here, if that's for what you're lookin', though. Tell me....with all the interesting and varied flavors and cuisines on the table (literally) in this town, how do places like Subway and Burger King keep people's interest?
(4)Doro G.
Shaken beef sandwich was excellent and John and the staff could not be more friendly and helpful. I can't wait to try more on their menu.
(4)Adrienne L.
Honestly this is the best Vietnamese sandwich I've had since I moved here from cali. I tried lees in Tempe and from different restaurants and this sandwich seriously beat the rest. I ordered a grilled BBQ pork sandwich and the taste was on point, the bread was fresh, and it was made fresh, right in front of me. The foot long sandwich was $5 so it was a bit pricier than lees and in California. But hey I can't compare to cheap California prices. The service was friendly and the place was super clean with separate bathrooms for guys and girls. The Thai tea was decent. I wish it was more concentrated. But other than that , this is best banh mi in Phoenix ! Unfortunately, I ordered green papaya salad and when I got home found nothing but shrimps and daikon inside. I've had a lot of Vietnamese appetizer salads and this was blatantly wrong. Please fix that. I don't like to be excited about eating green papaya salad and ended up with daikon salad which by the way.. Was not good.
(4)Jeana K.
Amazing!! My family and I were very impressed. They didn't have a lot if gluten free options since all the meat is marinated in soy sauce, but I got the vegetarian noodle bowl (rice noodles, tofu, and veggies with the standard vinegarette dressing). I loved it and would definitely order it again.
(5)Billie M.
Delicious Vietnamese food here in Glendale, AZ? Yes, absolutely! We had the bun; bun thit nu'ong and bun ga nu'ong (and an iced coffee). What a delight to the taste buds! Everything was very fresh and tasted delicious. Warning: if you go around noon, don't expect to find a place to sit. There are a couple of outside tables, but the line is long and the tables inside are pretty much full. We will definitely be back before we head north to go home.
(4)Voltaire C.
This is one of the coolest new places in town. When you come and eat you definitely wanna be a regular. Quick, Easy, and tasty. Once you walk in your mouth will salivate of the rich aroma. Vietnamese sandwiches is their game and they do it well. I have tried all the sandwiches and I keep coming back to the Grilled Pork aka Thit Nuong. I call it "Thit Nuonging it UP". No question when you add cheese its a tidal wave of Asian goodness in the palm of your hands. No mistake after the first bite you won't stop and soon it will be all gone! Bye Bye! Each bite is an explosion of fresh flavor you've never had but won't forget. Seriously its that good that it becomes YOUR possession and you won't dare to share it. The fresh and zesty vegetables combined with the warm marinated pork with the melted cheese is just ridiculous. When you finish you will recite "Damn that was good" and catch yourself looking up at the menu and wondering if I should get 2 more to go... Once you receive the handoff and the end of the counter, like a Running back reaching for the goal line you will protect them at any cost!
(5)Jose M. L.
Brought my wife and kids in for a meal this time. I tried the pork and shrimp noodle salad. Great flavor and perfect quantity. We also had a the grilled chicken sandwich. It was flavorful. Lastly we had the potstickers. Man are they big and delicious. Without a question one of our favorites. On the drink side we had the to order boba teas. Can't come here without having one of them. My personal favorite is the regular milk boba tea. This time we went with a Coconut milk tea and the Taro tea. Good in their own right but will continue ordering the regular milk tea with boba in the future. Owner is very friendly and will help you out with any questions you may have. #vietnameseeatery #bobatea #smallbusiness
(5)Yusef S.
Amazing sandwiches. Shaken beef is my favorite followed by the chicken sandwich. Food here is delicious.
(5)Desi N.
This place is awesome. I tried the number 2 and everything about this sandwich was unbelievable. I wasn't sure about the liver spread that is used on this sandwich, but I couldn't even taste it. The flavors really compliment each other. The other members of my party tried different sandwiches and they all looked great. I'll definitely be coming back to try the rest of the menu.
(5)Adam D.
Great food! Excellent flavors. My dad and I split the BBQ Pork, and the BMB Special sandwiches. Perfect size, great food. And the Spring Rolls are always amazing. Come check them out, you will not be disappointed.
(5)Katrina I.
Yum! Amazing food, service and super tidy. Love that they are vegetarian friendly AND there is more than one vegetarian option!
(5)Anastasia W.
Awesome place! Had the classic banh mi for lunch and it was delicious. For $6 you can't beat it. I think I've definitely found one of my new regular lunch spots.
(5)Vinnie Y.
Place is very nice. Great looking and very friendly staff. The food is outstanding. You get so much great food for your money.
(5)Nang V.
Delicious food.. omg the banh mi are to die for.. The best I had since I've moved here..lol.. so happy and so close by... will definitely visiting once a week a week at least!!!!
(5)Jenn G.
I had the grilled pork bahn mi and viet coffee and I must say I'm very surprised how delicious both of them were. I will definitely be coming back here.
(5)OJ H.
finally...been waiting for little saigon to expand and they hit the mark! New bistro is a great sandwich shop. I've had the steamed pork and the bo luc lac sandwiches and both have been awesome. Very fresh. Great bread, good bite to the vegetables and very tasty meat. I also tried the spring rolls which were great. (loved the peanut sauce) The owner was very friendly and seemed to be having fun. Will surely return.
(5)Ej A.
Had the grilled pork and also shewn beef sandwiches.... This restaurant has a great atmosphere, fantastic food and great service! Awesome new addition. I will be eating here often. Come try it out.
(5)Gregory M.
Wow! So much better than anything we have in Reno, NV. Fresh, clean, well designed menu and decor. Egg rolls were great! Salad noodle bowls are out of this world. My kids loved the pot stickers. Had a peach ginger tea and coconut milk tea and forgot we had food for a minute. The mango snow was enough for four of us and then some. Please move to Reno and open up a place.
(5)Valerie D.
To have a "snow" spot close to the house is super awesome on its own, but add the fact that they also have very tasty banh mi sandwiches, and they've earned my vote. My husband did say the number 2. banh mi was the best sandwich he's ever had. I had the classic and we shared a shaved ice, which was also sooo good and refreshing after a hot day. We will definitely be making this a regular spot.
(5)Samantha G.
Yum, yum and YUM! The spring rolls with pork and shrimp are amazing, and the Banh Mi are GREAT! I got the grilled pork and it didn't disappoint! It was fast, the service is wonderful and the place is really cute! I'll definitely go back.
(5)Josh F.
Have been looking for Bahn Mi. Found extremely affordable and fantastically tasty!!! I was so pleasantly surprised.... I'll be a repeat customer.
(5)Sean L.
Very good had pot stickers chicken , spring rolls and there banh mi sandwich with pork meatballs All very tasty. Some of the best potstickers I have had in awhile. Service was great .has been open for 2 months and I will be back for sure .menu looks great.very clean place.
(4)Jim C.
Awesome that I can now get Banh Mi so close to boring Norterra. No more trips to Mesa needed to get my fix. As usual, had #5 the bbq pork.
(5)Michael J.
The best Banh Mi we've had since visiting Vietnam. One of the owners is from central Vietnam so the food is authentic. High-quality and fresh ingredients. The Banh Mi was big enough for two of us to share and at $6 a huge bargain. Had the BMB Special which had grilled pork, fried egg and pate in addition to the fresh toppings. The Green Papaya Salad was also delicious with a few shrimp on top. I wish this place was in my neighborhood, I'd be a regular.
(5)Dinu C.
The best Vietnamese food I've had so far in the US! Unbelievable, and for a crazy low price. Will be there pretty much every day now:)

The owners are fantastic, friendly people in the kitchen making your food magic happen. Bahn Mi is Vietnamese for sandwich and they have a variety including vegetarian options. They do not serve Pho as its readily found all over the valley but you'll love Bahn Mi. You'll also find firecracker salmon rolls, salad bowls, rice plates and dessert including smoothies, shaved ice and Vietnamese coffee! Inside you'll find a welcoming and trendy lounge space designed by the owners where you'll want to escape Phoenix weather! Thanks for the great experience

OMG how is it even possible I work 5 minutes away, crave Bahn Mi DAILY, and only today found out about this amazing spot? Had the #2 BanhMi with fried Egg which I loved and tried the #7 which was great, but I like the yummy Pate' a little more. Also tried the Spring Roll which was great and the Salmon Spicy roll which was pretty good. But just save room for lots of amazing Banh Mi. I will be back a lot.. It gets busy so go early.

I had the #2 BMB special and it has amazing and huge although surprisingly light as the bread is not heavy. I am not a bread guy but the bread alone was great and then with all the amazing things they put on it...with a little of the homemade chili garlic sauce on it....it is a home run! I didn't order the pan fied dumplings but they looked huge as well. I would drive the 15 miles it took me to get there anytime. Really one of the best, unique sandwiches I have ever had.

The banh mi here was huge. Really, it is almost a foot long. I think there was a banh mi deal going on also: buy 5, get 1. I think. The grilled pork I ordered was pretty tasty, but it wasn't awesome. I think the seasoning on the pork was okay, but the meat's proportion was a little on the low end. The classic banh mi was tasty. I guess it had a little bit of everything so the flavors and textures were unique. The shaken beef one was pretty good. The beef was a tad too salty for my palate during this particular visit, but it was good nonetheless. Everyone seemed to agree that this was the sandwich to get. Even after eating these sandwiches as a snack later, the bread was still good, not hard or stale. A good stream of people went in and out, and eventually there was a line that formed. A totally good sign that the locals adore this place. This is a new restaurant too with the sign outside still having its temporary store banner. Parking was pretty plentiful since Banh Mi Bistro was located near the end of this complex.

This place serves up some legit banh mi sandwiches! There aren't a while lot of banh mi options around me (Scottsdale) but fortunately I found this place on a search. It's definitely quite a drive still but the food is so good it makes the trip worthwhile. The sandwich was pretty incredible. I didn't have high expectations for banh mi sandwiches since it's Phoenix we're in and not California but boy did this place blow me away! Every single piece of the sandwich was just pure quality. The bread doesn't look like the traditional bread typically used for banh mi sandwiches but it didn't matter because it was amazing. It looked like a French baguette but was light and fluffy unlike a French baguette. I had the BMB special which came with grill pork, fried eggs, pate, and the usual pickled veggie/cucumbers/cilantro/jalapeño combo. The pork was tender and well seasoned; the over easy eggs were perfectly cooked; the veggies added some nice crunch and freshness to the sandwich. I really wish I had a stomach for two of these! The size of the sandwich was quite generous. I definitely didn't leave hungry; just left wondering when my next visit would be!

Who would have thought that I would find such a good banh mi place in Arizona? If you are craving some banh mi, this is the place to go. I'm originally from San Jose, CA which is a huge Vietnamese area and I have to say that Banh Mi Bistro is on par in my opinion. The sandwich itself is very large! I got the #2 BMB Special (grilled pork, fried egg, pate) super yummy, I'd recommend getting this one!

This place is a gem! Perfect Sammy- Good portion of meat and veggies with real nutritional value, even fresh herbs. All stuffed into thin chewy crusty baguette that doesn't overwhelm its contents. It's a little silly how happy I am about this. They have Thai tea with BOBAS. No extra charge. They have a large size for a great price which I'm also stoked about. *BOBAS- fun chewy tapioca balls you slurp up with your tea* I called in my pick up order and they were very nice & professional on the phone. My food was all ready to go when I got there 15 mins later. Facility was noticeably clean which is appreciated.

(Lyrics - Maroon 5 - Sugar) I don't wanna be hungry for lunch I just wanna be eating your food And it's killing me when I'm hungry ooh, Bo Bites Cause I really don't care where you are I just wanna be there when you open And I gotta get one little taste Banh Mi Yes, please Won't you come and make some for me? I'm right here, 'cause I need Little spice and a lot of fresh veggies Yeah, you serve me good coffee Make it alright Need a little Banh Mi for my bite Banh Mi Yes, please Won't you come and make some for me? No PHO FO sure! I'm very happy to see Banh Mi Bistro try to educate the valley about Banh Mi sandwiches and Vietnamese cuisine which doesn't only encompasses the one and only - Pho! Banh Mi Bistro showcases traditional Banh Mi along with other sandwiches with more recognizable ingredients. I went for the traditional Banh Mi; a French baguette with pickled carrots, daikon, cilantro, jalapeno, and Vietnamese ham and pate. The bread was extra flaky and crunchy the way it should be while the cilantro and pickled vegetables brought a soothing and aromatic bite! The sandwich itself is about 12 inches long so sharing is not a bad idea especially if you plan to get other items. The second time I came around I went for the Noodle Bowl with pork and eggrolls. Overall, a solid dish with fresh cut cucumbers, romaine lettuce, crispy eggrolls and Vietnamese seasoned pork served with a sweet and spicy hot sauce. I like mines with a bit of a kick so I added some Siracha. The bowl itself is well portioned in my opinion; not too much and not too less. I also ordered me the Vietnamese ice coffee; a potent caffeinated coffee with condensed milk be prepared to stay away! In the end, the place was clean and modern. The service and staff seemed very genuine and helpful educating their patrons along with welcoming back regular customers. Overall and A+ from Bo Bites! - Enjoy!

Love this place. BMB Special is, well, special. Crisp bread on the outside, soft on the inside. Great flavor combination between the spice, sweet, fried egg and vegetables. A local favorite, will be there many more times.

5 stars for letting our dog hang out with us outside while we eat. They have 2 small tables and a couple of chairs out front, but it was perfect. Randomly decided to try this place on our way out to Sedona and so glad we did!! Wish I was hungry enough to try the sandwiches though. We got the shaved ice with fresh fruit... OMG! So good!!!! My friend got some bun thit nuong. My friend loves it!! The fresh squeezed orange juice is so delicious, I'm getting another one to go!! I highly recommend this place.
(5)Jennifer Y.
Hey this place is so good!!!! Better than most bahn mi I've had (and I'm from San Jose, CA aka viet food central). The #2 bmb special was so yummy... Especially with the fried egg in it!! I also tried the #7 shaken beef and it was very unique and also delicious. I would for sure be a regular here if I lived in Arizona! Hopefully I can find a place like this in Cali. Sandwiches are seriously 5 star. The only issue was that the vermicelli noodles we got in the vermicelli bowl were broken up. Just wasn't as good as the sandwiches. Ermagod come here and get #2!!! I just ate mine and I want another one already. Btw these sandwiches are HUGE! Like over a foot long. Cray cray!
(5)Em J.
Love this place! My guy introduced me to Bahn Mi's when we are at a Vietnamese restaurant once. I decided to google bahn Mi's in my area and this place came up! I've had the classic bahn mi and the pulled pork. Both are delicious! All of the different veggies and sauces really make them unique and delicious! I got the taro milk tea with boba. It's really good! The sandwiches are big, almost footlongs. I recommend adding their chili garlic sauce that you can find by their soda machine. It really gives that extra kick! Service has been both fast and friendly each time. Inside is very clean and I love how it is decorated. Definitely give this place a try! The next one I want to try is with the fried egg. I've read great reviews about it and have seen many people ordering it both times I went. Yum!
(5)Corabelle G.
Friends in AZ kept telling me about this spot so we finally got to try it. I love Vietnamese sandwhiches so you understand why it was a must try. Final analysis, very good. My son even liked it and he's not really into Vietnamese sandwhiches. He had the one with a fried egg, I tried a bite and it definitely added a new taste to the sandwhich. I had the special combo and truly enjoyed it. The bread is different from most Vietnamese sandwiches baguettes, softer and very tasty when served hot.
(5)JP C.
Excellent sandwich, friendly and helpful service, nice and clean location. I just moved to the area and had left behind me one of my favorite restaurants ever in the form of a Vietnamese restaurant with insanely good banh mi. I had a craving for banh mi, but I was really concerned that anything else would disappoint me. I saw Banh Mi Bistro with high ratings, so I decided to give it a shot. I even drove way too far during my lunch break to do it. I am glad that I did! When I got here, I was thinking I'd get some spring rolls and a sandwich to get an idea of how good this place is. I ordered the spring rolls and, with the assistance of the guy taking orders, the BMB Special. He said that the BMB Special and one other sandwich are ones that Banh Mi Bistro does differently from other places. When I saw that there was a fried egg involved, I was sold. My food came out, and I immediately began to question how well I'd feel after eating this meal. It wasn't a question of whether I'd finish, just how I'd feel afterwards. The sandwiches are huge! I dug into the spring rolls first. The pork inside them was great, and the overall flavor with the peanut sauce was excellent. I could have made a meal out of these things alone, and considering their size, I don't think it would be too much out of the question. On to the sandwich, the scene stealer. There was grilled pork on there, and it was delicious. The cilantro, jalapenos, and other veggies were all excellent. And as I thought it would, the fried egg stole my heart. This is a pretty darn good sandwich, and it made me know that I gotta come back here for more. I'm reserving a fifth star for trying a few more of the sandwiches. Like I said, my expectations for banh mi are pretty darn high, so this place has high standards with which to deal. But I'll be back.

I've been here a total of five times. Every single time, I get the grilled pork noodle salad bowl with egg rolls aka bun thit nuong + cha gio. It's my absolute favorite! The bowl has the perfect portion of meat & noodles tossed with refreshing cucumbers/bean sprouts. Put in the fish sauce that's provided, and the sauce elevates the meal by 10 folds. On weekdays, I usually order togo. My boyfriend and I usually dine in on the weekends. Service is fast. I honestly think the cashier remembers our order every time we come in by now. The milk tea is pretty good here. I tried the Thai milk tea, which was satisfactory. I would recommend getting the taro milk tea - it's delicious. I'm actually craving one right now! Just a heads up that they are closed on Sundays! Oh, they also do not serve pho lol.
(5)Jay D.
Wow!!! This place rocks! It's Vietnamese Crack! I use that term with full praise :) I've eaten here 3 times. I've had the #1, 2, and 7. All excellent. But the #2 with the fried egg was awesome :)))) Followed by the #7 Shaken beef. The french bread is excellent and the sandwiches will leave you full and satisfied, unlike a certain unnamed competitor(large grocery store) in the east valley. I'm gonna bug the owner until he opens a location up in the EV :)))))
(5)Amy V.
I was disappointed upon our first visit, however we gave it another shot, then another, and another .... And it's amazing. I'm updating my review to 5 stars because they've earned it. Shaken beef sandwich, Awesome. You must try the snow! It's an unbelievable dessert. It's like a snow cone consistency but powdery as well, topped with fruit of your choice, (along with many other options) then they pour sweet and condensed milk over the top and that's when the magic happens. It's large, we split it between us and still feel completely satisfied. OUT OF THIS WORLD. I crave it every single day due to the 115 temps we are dealing with.
(5)Rich N.
Only had the shaved snow which was good. Would love to come back for the lotus salad. People were very friendly

I don't even know what I was looking for when I came across this business on yelp, but I bookmarked it right away. After about a week it was still all I could think about so as soon as opportunity presented itself, I drove up to Bell to check it out. I ordered the roast pork banh mi and my lunch date ordered the shaken beef. We shared an order of potstickers. For drinks I had a Thai milk tea (no boba for me this time) and my girlfriend had a green tea. Our sandwiches were amazing. Full of meat and veggies. The only downfall was the toasted baguette ripped the top of our mouths apart (don't you HATE when that happens?!), but I probably would have still chased my first sandwich with another if I was hungry enough and suffered the consequences. My Thai tea was awesome, her green tea was horribly bitter, most likely the result of tea bags being left in too long. Not going to drop a star off for iced tea though. The winner of the whole lunch was the potstickers. Hands down, best I've ever had. We ordered the pork (there is also a chicken option) and they were amazing!! Handmade, steamed and fried, little pillows of meaty goodness. The restaurant is clean, staff is friendly, and the menu has so many options, there is so,etching for everyone. I can't wait to go back to try the shaved ice..
(5)Katrina L.
The best banh mi that I've had so far! I got the BMB special, number 2. The meat was very tender and it's got so much flavor to it, as I sink my teeth into the banh mi, the buttery texture of the over easy eggs melts into my mouth like heaven. Ahhhh soo good! But be careful! the jalapeno is hiding inside.. I almost cried! lol I took it out and continue eating my banh mi.. I also like their baguette it's not too hard and it doesn't hurt my upper palate. They also serve drinks here, the peach ginger iced tea and the passion fruit iced tea was awesome, we just didn't add boba to it because we already have boba in our shaved snow. The shaved snow was really good too, we added some lychee jelly and boba with condensed milk. If it's not too far from my house, I'd be here everyday and be broke.
(5)Tracy V.
Service: 4 Food: 3 Service was a little slow, but the cashier/maybe owner made a point to learn my name. Maybe slow because I ordered a sandwich with a fried egg, but some of the staff seemed to hustle and others not so much. It may be a style thing, but I prefer my pickled carrots a little more pickle-y. The sandwich was absolutely humongous and could have definitely split with someone! I have to say the bread was not bad either. I would say to get that 4/5 star, I want to see that crispy outside and soft on the inside- baguette was a little more soft/fell apart after digging in. I'll come back again soon as I know it's still new.
(3)Nikki H.
We have now visited this restaurant twice. We were not disappointed either time. The first time, I ordered the BMB Special. It was delicious, and a lot bigger than I was anticipating. Definitely worth the $6 price. The pork was extremely flavorful, the egg added a punch of flavor and texture, and the pickled veggies provided a nice crunch. On the second visit, I was tempted to get the BMB Special again, but I decided I needed to try more of the menu and settled on the Classic Banh Mi. This one was delicious as well. Again, the pork was flavorful, the ham was nice and fresh, and the bread was perfectly baked. Service both times was fast and friendly, and the restaurant is nice and clean. With the great food, convenient location to work, and great prices ($5-$8 for most items on the menu), we will definitely return often.
(5)Jack N.
Banh Mi is located on the north side of bell in the same parking lot as Lamars Donuts. The inside is small/30 capacity, super clean, and feels well decorated for an order at the counter spot. I ordered the chicken potstickers, #2 bmb special, and a thai milk drink. The potstickers were fresh, hot, and really food. They came with a nice dipping sauce and were well proportioned. I enjoyed the taste and texture. The #2 was a lot bigger than I thought it would be. It was stuffed with grilled pork, a fried egg, fresh veggies, and packed in a homemade bun as long as my forearm. It was very tasty and freshly made. The thai drink was premade which bummed me out a bit but it was tasty. I wouldnt recommend the #2 unless you are sharing. And it def is big enough to share. The reason I write this is that I am a good sized fully grown man and no way could I finish it. Fried egg doesnt really travel well so I had to regretfully throw out nearly half a sandwich. I would however recommend this place and will be back for more without a doubt. Great work guys!

The majority of the menu is priced at $5.00 each, portions are large and the majority of the food is delicious. This is a small family ran casual business that specializes in the Banh Mi sandwich and more. You order up at the counter and seat yourself. On my last visit I enjoyed the fresh crisp lotus root salad and the chicken banh mi. The chicken banh mi sandwich was really delicious and packed with tasty crisp vegetables. Portions were much larger than I was expecting and I took half home for latter. This time we shared some vegetable egg rolls. They were different and unlike any other egg roll I ever had. You get lettuce leaves, fresh herbs cucumber and radish carrot salad to wrap around the egg rolls and then you dip them in a light fish sauce. They were the most interesting and the most delicious egg rolls I ever had. For my meal I had the chicken and tofu vegetable bun. The bun is a salad made with lots of noodles. You have a choice of two toppings for your bun. The chicken was nicely seasoned but was very dry in my salad. I actually liked the tofu very much. It was marinated and flavorful. The way they prepared the tofu you could mistake it for moist chicken in this salad. My husband had the classic banh mi this time. He liked it and wants to eat his way threw all the banh mi's on the menu. He is very interested in the meatball banh mi. I like that this place offers something very different and unique to this area. A solid good place to eat! I do recommend to call in advance for opening hours if you're traveling to visit Banh Mi Bistro because they do occasionally close for special events as they did last Saturday.

I live in North Phoenix and there aren't many options for Asian food around here when compared to the east valley, so when I saw the sign pop up I had to stop by. I ordered the BMB Special sandwich which consists of grilled pork, pate, fried egg, jalapeño, pickled daikon and carrot. The sandwich was amazing. The bread was soft and chewy with a nice crust and the pork was really flavorful. The service was nice and fast. Also an added bonus is that they have frequent purchasing cards for both drinks and sandwiches where you buy 10 drinks and/or sandwiches and get the 11th for free. I'll definitely be a returning customer even if they didn't have this perk. I hope this place sticks around!
(5)Mustafa S.
The shaken beef sandwich was amazing! All the ingredients are extremely fresh. That was a delicious lunch. New spot for lunch.
(5)Hooked On Phoe Ni X.
Great lunch place! Love bahn mi and am so happy this exists in north Phx. Cute place, good prices, delicious sandwiches.
(5)Emily P.
The restaurant was spotless and the cashier was helpful in suggesting good food. My dad and I split two sandwiches which was way too much food considering we also ordered egg rolls and vegetarian spring rolls. The spring rolls were delicious and warm which I am not used to. My first bite into the shaken beef sandwich was not good... the meat was chewy and I am already skeptical of ribeye so I did not enjoy that. The BMB special, on the other hand was fantastic. Who knew pâté, pork, and an egg with a slightly raw yolk could taste so great on some bread?
(4)Marisa S.
Thank you Norm R. for your great recommendation. When I read your review, I bookmarked it immediately. Since then, I have been craving a banh mi. Finally, today I had an opportunity to have lunch with my husband, so I suggested this place to him. He loves asian fare, so he was thrilled. We drove the 21 miles it took to get there. The place is in a strip mall that has several other restaurants. Upon entering, I noticed how clean it is. It also looks fairly modern. The people working there were very welcoming. I ordered the grilled chicken banh mi and my husband had the Shaken Beef banh mi. The prices are very reasonable, mine was $5 and my hubby's was the most expensive banh mi at $7. I loved my choice, the baguette was crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside, the chicken was nicely seasoned and it came with onions, cilantro and some other veggies. I almost think I liked my husband's sandwich better, but cannot decide yet. This place is sure worth the drive, we want to try the bowls of vermicelli noodles next time as well as the dessert. I might have to share my sandwich next time, because it is pretty long, at least a foot long. P.S. I went back a couple of days later and had the Pork Banh mi and the Bun, a noodle and veggies salad bowl with chicken and shrimp, it was awesome.

Banh Mi Bistro 2340 W. Bell Road Phoenix Three of us went for lunch at this restaurant. It is located in a small strip center right near the freeway. Arriving early, we were able to get a table immediately, and spent some time perusing the menu. Companion #1 ordered egg rolls (3 to an order), a meatball banh mi with tomato sauce, and a taro boba. Companion #2 ordered a Hong Kong style pork banh mi and a drink. I ordered the spring roll appetizer with peanut sauce, rib steak pieces, pepper & onions banh mi, and peach/ginger iced tea. In a reasonable amount of time our orders were ready to be picked up at the counter. Comments: Companion #1: egg rolls were crisp but on the small side. Came with enough lettuce and assorted veggies to make an entire lunch instead of just and appetizer. The meatball banh mi had little flavor but had so much jalapeno (possibly serrano) pepper as to make it inedible. Companion did not eat the rest of the sandwich. Taro boba was excellent. Companion #2: Only ate 1/2 of sandwich because of burn from all the peppers on the sandwich. Gave me other half of sandwich and I gave companion 1/2 of my sandwich after opening it up and removing all peppers from it. Hong Kong pork was severely lacking in flavor. My spring rolls were properly made, but the peanut sauce was almost flavorless. It looked proper, but the flavor just was not there. My sandwich was fair in flavor but lacking in meat. I added both soy sauce and a healthy squirt of chili/garlic sauce to the sandwich but it did not do much for it. Even the chili/garlic sauce was watered down in flavor. The ginger iced tea was very nice, but all teas are pre-sweetened, which can be a real problem for a diabetic. Overall, the food seemed to lack flavor and assertiveness with the exception of heat from peppers. While I personally enjoy hot peppers, what was on the sandwiches was over powering of the flavor. This was the first time I have ever had a banh mi that was so lacking in flavor. I would suggest that the restaurant reexamine their flavor profile and do some work on it. The restaurant was clean and service was spot on. 2 stars for cleanliness and service.

For my first Banh Mi experience I don't have much to go on but this was pretty dam good. I had the grilled pork Banh Mi. The flavor on the sandwich were unlike anything I've had before but no complaints. I'm not a fan of bread but the bread was perfect. I could use a bit more meat though. I just like a lot of meat on my sandwiches but still a good sandwich. Spring rolls were perfect also. Peanut sauce wasn't too thick either. I'll definitely be back to try the different sandwiches, rolls and the other items they have to offer.
(5)Norm R.
Happy to note that a new Vietnamese eatery has been added to north Phoenix, and conveniently located on Bell Rd. just off I-17. Wondering why they decided to call it a bistro rather than just a restaurant, I decided to give it a try. It's definitely cozy, smaller than most Vietnamese eateries in the Valley but it's very clean and has a bit of a trendy look. The menu selection is smaller than in most Vietnamese restaurants, which is a good thing actually - it makes ordering easier, and the simple menu is displayed in 2 screens just over the counter. They do serve Asian shaved ice and milk teas, which is definitely a plus. The food is tasty, full of the refreshing savory-herbal flavors characteristic of the cuisine - and inexpensive, which is an important consideration for me. Another bonus: WiFi is available!
(5)K. R.
Best Banh Mi I think I've ever had from here to Nor Cal/ So Cal and back! (And I've had a lot of banh mi's!) They also serve up some really good Boba. I just wish the Boba cups were larger!
(5)Jamie J.
I was not a fan. I had been excited to try this place for quite some time but everything just fell flat in the flavor department. From a bland sand which to an okay Vietnamese coffee to fried paper towel stuck to my egg rolls (yuck!) I was sorely disappointed.
(2)Darren J.
I had the shaken beef banh mi and the spring rolls. The bread was crisp on the outside (but not too crisp) and soft on the inside, it was perfect. Plenty of meat in the sandwich with fresh toppings. The jalapenos had a nice kick to them. The sandwich was excellent. The spring rolls, well, there is only one other place in town that does them as good as they do here. Known fact: it's owned by another family member. Hard to beat them, they are outstanding.
(5)Carolyn K.
Love love love this place! The owner is really nice and the food is awesome!! Every time we get the chance we will go to this Banh Mi shop!! My favorite is the grilled pork! Bread is perfect! Yum!
(5)Andrea B.
Delicious, authentic, and easy on the wallet! Casual laid back environment and friendly staff. Good for eat in or take out. Has vegetarian friendly options. Bottom line, great flavors and good quality!
(5)Carlos A.
An excellent Vietnamese cafe. You order at a counter and eat at a table or take out. The staff was friendly and helpful. Food quality is excellent. The meat portion in the bowls could be better. Everything was flavorful and fresh.
