Definitely a great spot to hit that bahn mi craving!
Perfectly-crispy and chewy bread. Delicious veggies and marinated chicken. Beef pho was also pretty damn good (although I've had some with better broth in the past); they also put everything together for you here, ready to squirt in your hoisin and Sriracha as desired.
The sammich was understandably on the higher side for cost, but you also get a pretty large sammy too, so it balances out.
Everyone is super-friendly here! Will stop by again!

Takeout was very underwhelming, quite disappointing. The vermicelli bowl. No pickled daikon, just a lot of pickled onion- which is not what I wanted at all. The whole dish was so wet, with the toppings all in the bottom of the container in an inch of liquid. The sweet chili sauce on the side was so diluted there was no point to it. Ate some of it for some sustenance but it wasn’t tasty. And I wish I got a photo, because my food looked nothing like the pictures in other reviews. It was so sad with wet lettuce in a heavy leaking Styrofoam container.

This place is truly excellent. My friends and I happened upon Nikki’s off the hwy, quite hungry, and we were blown away by the food. It only took one bite for us to agree that the bánh mi and vermicelli bowl were the best we had eaten in a long time. The food came quickly, prices were reasonable, portions were generous, and the service was top notch! Can’t wait to go back soon!

Unfortunately this place was just a mid experience. The Korean chicken bbq banh mi lacked flavor.. was not my favorite. The Phat Woonsen & Drunken noodles were decent. The fresh spring rolls were very large portion for the price. The Vietnamese coffee was terrible… we asked with boba, assuming they would be the tapioca boba balls but she did not tell us they were out of those and chose to substitute it with jelly boba balls which were very bad in my opinion.

I went to Nikki’s for years before moving to TX. I came home to visit and one of my first stops was at her restaurant. It was worth the 4,000 mile round trip 🤩!

The Banh Mi sandwiches are very good! Also the sesame balls are really good and better than ones we have had at Chinese restaurants. We enjoyed our lunch! Nikki is always personable and she and her staff gave us great service!

I used to love this place but was given spring rolls that were clearly old and after I ate half of one, noticed a roach inside the roll.
Outstanding gem! Wonderful service, family owned! Can’t wait to go back!

This place is NOT Vietnamese at the name is deceiving, Pho and bánh mì is not what you think it's, these people are Thai, they copycat food that not even come close to the real think, they do have American food for the kids, but if you want bánh mì and pho ho else where.
