I ordered delivery through GrubHub. I ordered the lemongrass steak pho and the chicken pho. The meat was tender and flavorful. The broth was well seasoned. I tried the steak bahn mi. The steak sandwich was delicious. I just wish the bread was softer. I’ve tried pho at different places over Boston and this place has the best.
I loved it all. I was hungry but everything hit just right including the tunes 🎶🙌🏼🎶
It’s quite a good restaurant and budget-friendly.
Love the food. The place is small but cozy. Affordable amazing food.
Amazing Banh Mi and amazing value
Basic Chinatown quick serve spot doing bahn mi. A little side room of seating. Pork Bahn Mi was good, no complaints, didn’t have much jalapeño on it. Would order again
We ate here 4 years ago and decided to come back — not with high hopes, just expecting something decent for two people. Unfortunately, it was a complete letdown. The food was served cold, and even after asking for it to be reheated, it was still barely warm and totally unappetizing. The ham had a strange, off smell — definitely not stored properly. They even added tomato (also cold?!) which made it worse. The bread wasn’t hot or crunchy like we remembered from the Chinatown version. We paid around $35 for two and couldn’t eat a single bite. Left everything behind. Really disappointing.
The Lemon Grass Steak (Beef) Banh Mi Bo #7 sandwich was excellent. Will for sure come again if I'm ever back in the Boston area. Thanks for the meal.
Ordered the banh mi combo #3. Thought it would be a quick grab and go since the store wasn’t busy but I ended up waiting 25 minutes with 4 people who ordered AFTER me getting their orders first. Asked the cashier lady why that was happening and she basically ignored me.
The bahn mi itself tastes good but it’s very bready and could use more veggies and sauce. Eggroll was cold and the drink is just 2 sips with 90% of it being ice. Combo was $14.50 after tax which is good value but it’s a you get what you pay for experience.

The phở is incredible (I get the tofu Phở), I get it when I have to study for long hours as a pick me up! It is my favorite around here, the Bahn Mi is also really good!

Unfortunately my dac biet banh mi did not have pate. That's like one of the key elements. It was probably left out by mistake. I'll need to try again and see if they can redeem themselves.

I decided to try Banh Mi Huong Que after seeing some positive reviews, but unfortunately, my experience didn't live up to the hype. Based on the quality of the food, I would recommend exploring other options for Vietnamese food in Dorchester or Quincy area.
I ordered the Lemongrass Steak Banh Mi and the Lemongrass Pork Rice Bowl. The Banh Mi was underwhelming—the bread was soft but not toasted, and the steak lacked any real flavor. While it wasn't terrible for the price, it didn't have the quality or taste I was hoping for.
The Lemongrass Pork Rice Bowl was even worse. The texture of the pork was so off that I couldn't tell if I was eating meat or paper, the texture was weird. The fish sauce also felt incomplete, lacking that essential depth of flavor. To make matters worse, I found hair in my rice. It was a disappointing meal overall, and I won't be returning.

What a great hole in the wall spot!! Went here on a whim and I was NOT disappointed. $7.50 is really reasonable especially in Boston for a good banh mi! Tons of customers while I ate, which is a huge good sign. Service was super fast, bread was crisp and the pickled veggies were delicious. I liked that you can customize how much of each ingredient is in your sandwich. I got the pork belly banh mi, there were some chewy bits (fat, maybe?) I picked out- regardless, overall delicious. The shrimp rolls with peanut sauce are also amazing! I do wish more bottled drink options were available, but the sandwich was my main focus for the visit. Will be coming back again for an affordable and delicious meal :)

Compared to bread in Vietnam, it loses because it lacks crispness and heat. Spring rolls are okay to eat and very big. Acceptable because it is convenient and easy to eat when traveling.
