It was a good banh mi but the bread could have been a little softer. This is probably because I got mine at the end of the day. The portion was good. I got it to go. Would I go back? No. Tell you why. Chicken banh mi was $11.75 but came out to be $14.23! This didn’t include a tip. That’s nut. I understand sales tax and maybe even the 4% health mandate surcharge but that should have been $1.50 extra tops but almost a dollar on top of that? Go to Freshroll Vietnamese or Viet Duong on Bush St. Freshroll charges $9.75 for their banh mi and it’s about the same size and quality as Banh Mi King. I had always wanted to try Banh Mi King but the pricing was silly.

Banh Mi King brought me back to the first Banh Mi I ever had…10 years ago in San Francisco at a place that’s no longer in business. This one was great with the crispy bread; it was very fresh.

Blazing 5*! ONLY GOOD ° 5 spice chicken was moist, flavorful, balanced. ° Shrimp Spring roll freshly made. Not stiff at all (like premade) - sauce is flavorful; although I do like it a little more peanut heavy. ° LOVE the window so you can see fresh, vibrant, and beautiful ingredients. ° Ladies making and taking the order seem very kind and nice. ° It's a short walk to have lunch while looking at the Bay Bridge. Highly recommend! It was a great experience overall.
