If youre looking for a fast and cheap meal, you cant go wrong because you can get a $5 hoagie here. The food is good, not great. Its really the amazing bread that makes it delicious. Sure the contents of the sandwich are good too. The meats and condiments are flavored well, but frankly they dont have enough flavor, they really skimp on the condiments and seasonings. If youre ordering, Id ask them to put on more sauce to make it more "Vietnamese" tasting as opposed to tasting just like bread and chicken or bread and tofu. Smoothies are just sugar water and ice; very little fruit.

Finally! Vietnamese hoagies have made it to the King of Prussia area, and theyre actually good. If its your first time here or your first time having a Vietnamese sandwich, get the classic. While their banh mi sandwiches might not be as awesome as the ones in South Philly, theyre satisfying, plus suburbanites dont need to trek all the way into the city. Easy street and lot parking and friendly service makes for a seamless experience at Banh Mi Bar & Bistro.

Great eatery! The menu has good variety from pork belly dishes to vegetarian options (tofu or portobello banh mi, veggie spring rolls, great wasabi fries & noodle dish! Though tell them youre veg or vegan because broths are beef and some items have fish sauce that can be omitted). The prices a quite fare (pun intentional) and the setting is quaint. Glad to have found this place because its super convenient!

Bahn Mi is a little jem on the north side Norristowns busy Main St. Reasonably priced, the menu offers some very tasty Vietnamese food. The pho is delicious and is the cold noodle salads. The staff is very helpful and pleasant. Try it for dinner take out! If you are new to Vietnamese food, this is the place to have a good first meal.

You have to look into their special once a month meals. Best deal around. So much food for the money. I love their Vermicelli bowls and my room mates are addicted to their pork belly. Their wings are a proper crispy and its BYOB. You cant go wrong. This is probably my favorite place in Norristown.

I used to be a regular here when I moved to Norristown and oh my god the service is awesome! And the food is delicious!! So good, talking about it makes me want a bowl of pho now even though its hot as hell out lol. If youre looking to try some good eats definitely check this place out!

Sorry have to take my 5 star down to 3. Is this place closed? I traveled here twice lately and lights out every time. The food is excellent but they need to change the hours if they are not going to adhere to it. This is not convenient when you traveling 30 minutes out of your way.

I love the food and the service. The staff is always very friendly. The restaurant is clean, simple and cozy decor, well maintained inside, even though it is in an older building. I cant say enough positive things about the food. Everything Ive tried is delicious.

Authentic Vietnamese chef! I enjoyed an excellent beef and pork noodle soup (a lunch special that day) and some hot tea to escape the leftover cold from the blizzard of March 2017. Def coming back for some banh mi. The owners are both friendly and helpful.

Accidentally found this place and fell in love the first time. Food is always fresh and never greasy. The staff have been nothing but great every time. I have yet to be disappointed and thats after going back almost weekly for a few months now.

Very friendly staff and reasonable wait time. Lots of interesting food km the menu with interesting takes on fries. The banh Mi that we got were good, not great, but good. Did takeout so not sure how the pho or other eat in foods are.

Great food, love the atmosphere, customer service is outstanding!!! The only reason I did not give 5 stars are the prices. I just paid $10 for 3 tacos, but I will buy them again when I can afford to (definitely not everyday)!

Absolutely incredible!!!! The food was fantastic and the decor is really nice. Its very causal but done nicely. The staff was great and its worth saying a second time, the food was amazing! Definitely a must visit.

I frequent this place, and its honestly my favorite restaurant to eat at. The staff are all so friendly, and the food never disappoints. The only upsetting thing I can think of is that theyre not open 7 days a week!!

Rock solid bahn mi, great home made Srirracha, solid egg rolls, and excellent fries, the Korean style coffee is a hidden treat if you know how to ask for it.

Not open right now. It says it is open on the website. I have been waiting to eat here since they put up their sign. Will review again when open.

service is atrocious, 30 minutes before anything came out and that was only because I got up to leave. then they brought out the wrong item.

Love it. Pho was fantastic. No sraccha needed. Bahn MI was crunchy and fresh. Fries... Why are they so good? Wing were delicious as well.

Astro Elephant

Might be the best fries Ive ever had. The food was good and the staff was friendly and personable.

Abel Rodriguez

The best pho Ive had was from here. And 2 thumbs up on the steak and kimchi rolls

The food is fantastic, but there is always a wait. Its worth it though.
