- Bin YangOctober 24, 2015No 7 (Banh mi 'Beef stew') is my go-to sandwich. Soft braised tendons and generous cuts of tender beef on crispy bread. The regular banh mi is solid too. Cash only, not too surprising.
- Chefs FeedAugust 3, 2016"The banh mi is a barbecue pork sandwich with sweet, tender pork and crispy vegetables. I have one at least once a week when I pick up my restaurant equipment down the block." - Chef Albert Di Meglio Read more
- Fabian MartinFebruary 10, 2023Very solid choice! The meat is deliciously caramelized and the bread is crispy. A bit dry and too much cilantro but overall very good especially for 8$!
- Alex JenSeptember 22, 2014The classic Banh Mi (listed as #1 on their menu) is a souped up version of a classic. The cilantro is super fresh and the roast pork is sweet, tangy, and just a little bit crispy.
- Great Vietnamese sandwiches and fast service too. This shop is run by mostly ladies and it's not overpriced. BBQ pork is my favorite and its traditional. For dessert get the rainbow ice.
- Dáša JaníkováMarch 5, 2020Oh my gosh. I’ve tried three sandwiches and all of them were very delicious. My daughter had chicken rolls and she was satisfied as well.
- NYC: The Official GuideDecember 16, 2011Get the classic #1. Fragrant, sweetly caramelized, slow-cooked pork is stuffed into a hot, crusty baguette along with fiery chilies, cool cucumber, shredded daikon and a fistful of cilantro. Read more
- Kathy SunDecember 28, 2014#6 Buddhist spicy! cheap and generously stuffed with many veggie goodies - wood ear, shiitake, baby corn, tofu and your usual banh mi fixings. whole wheat baguettes available
- Brian ParkNovember 15, 2015For the value, it's the best Bahn Mi you can get, period. Get the Spicy BBQ sandwich, cus it's outrageously good.
- Amy ChenJanuary 30, 2016Delicious cheap banh mi sandwiches. You can't go wrong with any of the options. Follow @foodaholic_anonymous on Instagram.
- JeffreyApril 29, 2019Pork Bahn Mi: Shuko chef Nick Kim says it’s the freshly baked baguettes: “Like the rice with sushi, the bread is often overlooked, but it’s so important.”
- Great banh mi saigon (pork) sandwich! YUM! I always aim to eat here when I get a chance!! Previously located on Broome St but moved to this bigger location which they share w/ a jewelry store. :]
- Bram HubbellAugust 31, 2018Best bánh mi in Manhattan with great vegan options. I love the curried mock chicken
- Victoria TaverasSeptember 25, 2015Even when you are in a hurry and have to get one of the pre-made Bah min it's still a great meal for $4.50 . I had half for lunch and the other half for dinner
- Village VoiceFebruary 15, 2011House made pork sausage forms the basis for Sandwich #1. Added to this is the bland, Bologna-like pork "pate," pickled root vegetables, spears of fresh cuke, and wads of cilantro- cheap and delicious!
- Chefs FeedAugust 5, 2016Banh Mi Saigon has a barbecue pork sandwich with sweet, tender pork and crispy vegetables. Read more
- Village VoiceAugust 4, 2014Once ensconced in a stall under the Manhattan bridge, this distinguished Vietnamese institution was reinstalled in the rear of a jewelry store. Read more
- Valerie PetrovJanuary 18, 2015Chicken curry is great. The spicy version was not hot at all. Opt for extra spicy if you're in search of a kick
- AskMenDecember 17, 2010Get the Banh Mi. It's a Vietnamese sandwich. If you've never had it, go there and try it. Everybody that ends up trying this place usually makes it regular stop for food.
- Jen ShinMarch 8, 2015hands down one of the best bahn mi sandwiches ive ever had. extremely cheap as well.
- Oliver HuangNovember 6, 2013#4 is the way to go. It's the classic Vietnamese cold cut banh mi. The BBQ pork banh mi is over cooked and not as satisfying.
- More expensive every year by $.25 and less pork and pickled vegetables. Will think twice when going here from now on. Currently priced $5.25. Been eating this when it was $2.50.
- Grilled pork banh mi every time. Their baguettes are better than the average in the neighborhood. Flaky and soft!
- Just as good as the hype. Large sandwiches stuffed with fresh ingredients, all < $5 including tax. Try a coconut milk dessert for a sweet finish.
- Victoria H.July 7, 2015Pork Banh Mi and Chicken Banh Mi were very tasty, however, the bread was a little stale and the spicy-ness was lackluster.
- John AOctober 4, 2015Yummy Vietnamese sandwiches. Seating along the walls and two vegetarian sandwiches on the menu. Recommend the BBQ pork Banh Mi.
- Luke PackMay 23, 2016The bbq pork bahn mi is great value for $4.50. Just as good as the ones you pay $8-$10 all over NYC. Cash only.
- John FonteinFebruary 14, 2018Its good...but there's more hype than substance here. Saigon Sandwich Deli around the corner is definitely better 😋🥙🥪
- Serious EatsMarch 20, 2013Good bread when it's fresh and the pickled veggies are abundant, but meats here are just alright. The one exception is a meatball variation, which is quite juicy.
- City Food ToursFebruary 15, 2012Newer New York food trends include the Vietnamese staple sandwich, Banh Mi. Combining Sweet, Savory, Sour and Umami, it should fit the bill for any craving
- 陳雄暉 弟兄May 16, 2016INSIST that your ice coffee be done right. CRUSHED ice all the way. Don't let them skimp you with that cubed ice. It's NOT the same!
- Paul PJuly 5, 2011Great for vegetarians - try the vegetarian sandwich with mushrooms, tofu, baby corn and make it spicy (jalapeños). Mock curry chicken also tasty. Only $5 each for huge sandwich!
- Savannah PetrickJanuary 10, 2016incredibly fast, CHEAP, and yummy, but the atmosphere leaves a lot to be desired- it's definitely a grab-and-go kind of place.
- Michael AnthonyDecember 17, 2023Got the classic bahn Mi sandwich. It was good but the bread was so stale.
- I3 I2 /\ [)August 12, 2014One of the best Banh Mi Sandwiches I've ever had. Cheap and delicious...pork is my fav!
- Jen PMarch 6, 2016If you want a banh mi to go for the next day just let them know and they'll put the veggies on side.
- Peter LadaAugust 13, 2015Number 1 is great. So is most of them. And the Baum mi ladies are super nice.
- David GreenbergerSeptember 3, 2014$5 lunch, so good. If you've never had a bahn mi, in for a treat. Spicy #2.
- Simon LeungSeptember 2, 2015In the mood for a Vietnamese Sandwich? This place is probably the best in town. Don't buy jewelry in front but at least it's amusing.
- Demetri KaragasNovember 21, 2015House special extra spicy, best banh mi in NYC. Note it is cash only.
- New York HabitatNovember 2, 2011For $4.25 get the #1 Bahn Mi Saigon pork sandwich. Loaded with pork on a crispy baguette, it fills you up and is light on the wallet.
- Cary HApril 29, 2010Guys, the banh mi are great, but the one liter Wheat Aloe juice is where it's at. two fifty, and it's got a secret opening top that you'll have to have one of the locals show you how to open.
- ClaireFebruary 4, 2015Excellent and cheap bahn mi - $4.50 for pork #1 - prices have gone up since previous ratings.
