Thinking about this place always makes my mouth water, and I always make it a point to stop by when I'm in Philly. The cart is small and unassuming, but the food is delicious. The only thing I've tried, and the thing I keep coming back for, is the chicken Bahn mi!! The chicken is always moist and tender, and the mayo-based sauce ties the pickled vegetables and bread together beautifully with the chicken. The owners are nice, and are as efficient as possible with getting orders out. I recommend bringing cash to pay if possible.

They only take cash and venmo but the bahn mi here is banging. Highly reccomend if you need a quick sandwich on the go. The meat tastes delicious, the bread is delighfully crusty, and the vegetables are fresh and crisp. Careful though, the oil that drips out of this sandwich is hard to get out of your clothes. Not... that I would have ever experienced such a thing. Just something I heard or something.

Delicious and super flavorful tofu banh mi for 7 which id say is a very price effective option in the area. The tofu is seasoned super well and cooked fresh to order and the bread is soft with a nice crisp on the outside. The only thing is i wish there were more veggies bc ours only came with tofu and pickled carrots!

This review is more like 4-1/2 stars. I have passed by this food truck very often, and have know people loving this food. Pre-pandemic times there used to be a long line around lunchtime. Since this is on Univ of Pa campus, when the students did not return to campus due to the pandemic this food truck also did not come back. Fortunately, once the spring semester welcomed back the students the truck also returned. I was relieved to see them back. During this difficult economic time esp in the food industry I am trying my best to support smaller businesses. This food truck is operated by two older women, and they are super nice. Due to the cost increase from their purveyors they had to also increase the cost of their food. I ordered lemongrass pork with rice ($8), and lemongrass pork banh mi ($7). You also get a free bottle of water with your order. Pork is seasoned and cooked just right, and everything else tasted like I was eating home cooked meal at a friend's house prepared by their mother. Will definitely go back!
