BaBa Express is a tiny restaurant owned by a long-time local Vietnamese family, mainly focused on takeaway. It offers delicious and fresh meals, including the classic Banh mi, chicken Bahn mi, and Pho. Everything is made from scratch, and diners can taste the love in every dish. The restaurant takes pride in making everything in-house, and the staff are known for their kindness and friendliness. There are three two-person tables available for eating in, perfect for a quick bite. The caramelized pork banh mi is a must-try and is currently the only place in Penticton that serves it. The Spicy Lemongrass Pho and Lemongrass Pork Chop are also highly recommended.
While the restaurant has a parking lot, there is no restroom, and it is not wheelchair accessible. It is located near the IGA for alternative parking options. The food is homemade and full of flavor, with many vegetarian and vegan options, including the outstanding Bun Ba Ba Bowl. The family specifically caters to vegetarians and vegans, offering a flavorful soy patty created with care. Prices are fair, and customer service is excellent. The restaurant is known for its quick service, with food often ready in about 15 minutes. Overall, it is highly recommended to visit this restaurant for a unique dining experience.
