Food is tasty but the beef stew was not fresh. I saw the staff taking it out from the fridge and microwaved it while the food was in a plastic container. I don’t think the plastic was microwave safe. Not coming back again because of this

While the food was fresh, the sandwiches and spring rolls are made right in front of you, and the Vietnamese coffee was delicious, the price was very expensive ($11.25) for a standard banh mi sandwich with no sides. Three drinks, a few sandwiches and rolls to go cost us close to $100. Beware of the peanut sauce served with the spring rolls, it is served extremely thin and watered down like brown water and therefore lacks taste. Are they trying to cut costs by watering down their sauces? Even the fish sauce was watery. The lady taking our order didn’t speak a word of English so we were using Google translate to communicate and clarify our order. Finally someone else came to help. Next time we’ll stick with og places like Saigon Sandwich on Larkin.

Tasty food, but they use corn oil for their sauces. They should use a healthier oil like avocado oil.

I happened to be passing by and entered the store.
Banh Mi may look like a lot of food, but it has a lot of vegetables, so you won't feel full and can finish the whole meal.
Pho is also available, and the menu is extensive.

Terrible food. Terrible service. I didn't listen. Please save yourself the trouble and find another place nearby like another review mentioned. I wish had.

First time I order from banh mi king and actually order a banh mi. I highly recommend, I ordered a banh mi, teriyaki tofu bowl and fresh rolls. All the items totally hit the sport.The tofu bowl was slightly crunchy with the crispy onions which matched perfectly with the softness of the tofu.Fresh rolls were delicious, good portion of shrimps with a tasty peanut sauce.

Everything is delicious. The Duck Banh Mi is a gem: succulent duck meat and duck patte, the whole thing melts in your mouth.

Pretty solid place for banh mi in FiDi. Got the 5 spice chicken and the meat is fattier. Sandwich was $10.16.Sauce adds more flavor and there’s a small kick to it. The pho smelled really good and would probably try that next. Viet coffee seemed a bit pricey—$5.75. Two spring rolls for $8.75

A good take on a Banh Mi…but when did Banh Mi come with jalapeños (Spanish chilli/capsicum)?We had the pork and 5 spice chicken Banh Mi with an iced Vietnamese coffee.The pork Banh Mi was good, the 5 spiced chicken Banh Mi lacked the 5 spiced flavor’s. The Vietnamese iced coffee was 5/5.I would have given a 5 if they had the proper chillies, a proper 5 spiced chicken and the fact that we had to clear & clean our own table. I do highly recommended…..better food than Chinatown and probably the best Banh Mi you will find in San Fran.
