Summer Roll Tofu
Mary F.

Seriously the women who work here are the sweetest and so friendly. I've always been greeted with a smile and gotten great service. It's always a nice place to stop in. It is pretty small inside and there are a few tables outside. You order at the counter or can order by phone or online. Usually I order online and every time I have walked in to find it bagged and ready to go. They did change ordering systems a few months ago which had a few kinks to work out. The food is mostly sandwiches and rice or vermicelli bowls. There also is soup, summer rolls and a cucumber salad. In addition they have coffee and tea, lemonade and bubble tea. I have not tried any drinks but I would like to. My go to is the Feelin' Tofu Banh Mi which has the tofu, veggies and yummy sauce and I like to add some jalapeños for some kick. The bread is flavorful with a little crunch that holds up pretty well. The veggies give such a light tasty crunch. I do feel that the sandwich could do with a little more on it portion wise both for value but also to be more balanced with the amount of bread. It is a tasty sandwich though. We also like to get the tofu summer rolls. The balance here can be a bit off with too much lettuce. However, the sauce is absolutely delicious and could make just about anything taste good. This is a great place to stop by for lunch or dinner (but beware they close at 6) or just to grab a drink during the day. We like to pick up the food to take to a brewery to eat. It is usually pretty easy to find street parking close by. Friendly service and tasty food.

Caf Sua Da - Iced Chicken Pho
Cameron

Love this women-owned business and one of my go-to's for Vietnamese food in Pittsburgh! The cafe sua (iced Vietnamese coffee) was delicious, just the right amount of condensed milk to not make it too sweet. It had a lot of ice, so would ask for less next time. The chicken pho had a delicious broth, and the mix-ins were already all added in when I got it. Definitely one of the cheaper places to get it so I'm not complaining and it was perfect on a cold day. Service was great, pretty quick and very accommodating. They also had a small seating area tucked in the back that was nice and quiet to get work done or chat, as well as outside too, but most people get it to go. Their bahn mi is also delicious, and definitely worth a try too!

Pork bahn mi sandwich
Tyler P.

Local and Woman-owned gem! Very nice owner and workers, dedicated to quality Vietnamese food which is seriously lacking in Lawrenceville. The sandwiches are the stand out here but the pho is also surprisingly good. The broth is extremely flavorful. There's not a ton of searing inside so if you want to dine in, it's better to save it for warmer weather. But the counter is sufficient.

Viet Special Banh Mi
Joya S.

Great place for lunch in lawrenceville! Quick service where you go up and order from the counter and there's a few tables in the back. I got a Banh mi which came with lots of toppings. Staff were super nice and brought us all waters.

I'm absolutely THRILLED that Banh Mi & Ti's dining room is open again!! As a second generation Vietnamese American, Vietnamese food is my ultimate comfort food and there's nothing like some phở on a blustery cold day. The food was delicious and it came out quickly, what more can you ask for!

food is given in takeout form, good bahn mi but pho is ok. some seats in the back but i think takeout bahn mi is worth it

Laurie V.

Friendly service and decent bahn mi. There was something a little sweet on the sandwich that I don't normally love, but it wasn't overpowering. My son loved the "strawberry juice" (boba tea without the tea and only the flavoring). The sandwich was solid and the pork was plentiful. If I returned, I would ask for a little less of the sweet sauce and a little more cilantro.

The classic banh mi
Alan C.

My wife and I are visiting my son who recently moved to the area to start his medical fellowship at a nearby hospital. His new apartment is nearby and we wanted a quick lunch while running errands. We ended up at Banh Mi & Ti. We have eaten all over Vietnam so we know what to expect and this was a relatively tame and westernized version of what we have come to understand is the classic street fare. Lovely folks working behind the counter and the drinks seemed to be a big seller here, we just had the Sammie's which were good but nothing special IMHO. We tried three different versions - the classic original - which typically should have pate on it, this had a firm and tasteless head cheese, the one with beef which was moist and more flavorful and then a third with roasted pork belly. All could have benefited with spicy peppers IMHO and more fillings. Good not great. We also tried the shrimp rolls and cucumber salad both needed more herbs and marination time.

banh mi

There are so few banh mi places in Pittsburgh so I'm really glad I finally went to this one! It's a really small shop in Lawrenceville with no indoor seating but a few outdoor tables outside. The place is small so the line usually goes out the door, but it moves pretty fast. We went at lunchtime and didn't have to wait too long to snag a table and order. The sandwiches are pretty large and filling and definitely worth the price! It's filled with lots of veggies that taste fresh. Bread texture is crusty but still chewy -- the type that leaves crumbs all over you when you bite into it. They also serve a variety of Vietnamese drinks/coffees as well as bowls. Definitely satisfied my banh mi craving :)

The food here was fresh and absolutely amazing! The location provides counter service. It was very close to our Airbnb so we picked up our order and then ate at the Airbnb. There is no inside seating but there are a few outside tables. They do a bustling take out business. We ordered the veggie and shrimp spring rolls, the Viet and classy chic bahn mi. Fabulous!

Lemonade peach flavor
Ellen K.

When in the Lawrenceville neighborhood, this is my go-to fast casual lunch spot. The baguette for the bread of the Bahn Mi is crunchy on the outside and deliciously soft inside. I get the colorful decaffeinated Pea Flower tea to drink (a rare find locally) and they also offer bubble tea and Vietnamese coffee. The service is always welcoming and quick. They have a few tables for outdoor seating on a nice day.

tofu banh mi with a large peach boba green tea
Jackie M.

Was craving a Banh Mi before a tattoo appointment. This place was convieniently on Bulter street. We ordered right before they opened from their website. We arrived right at 11 and our tea was already ready. We had to wait a little bit longer for out sandwiches but they were overall very quick. We took our meal back to our Airbnb. My sandwich was really delicious except the end of the bread was little hard and dry. Once you got past the end, the tofu was nice and warm and the saucy was perfectly sweet and savoury. I added jalapeno which honestly was not that spicy in a good way. Just the right amount of heat. My bubble tea was also really good and refreshing. Not too sweet and they gave a lot of bubbles. I would definitely recommend this place even though it's not the best banh mi I have ever had.

I enjoy this place. They have a typewriter and they stand for a good cause. The staff I've…read moreexperienced is cool depending on who's there. It was quiet when I first began going. Some employees play music which I found distracting. Another employee seemed to have monitored me during my entire visit; maybe she thought I was going to steal a $4.99 book. Idk The place is not as clean as it could be, such as the bathroom, and some of the chairs need to be wiped off or completely replaced as they are stained and have an odor. I would not get any beverages from here unless it's sealed. The hours fluctuate often. I have made one too many trips during the weekday, weekend, daytime or afternoon to find the door locked. And I'm not aware that there's communication given ahead of time about their fluctuating hours for the given day. If you need to get your fix from a book, just buy it because there's no guarantee you can read it the next time you plan to.

This place was such a joy to spend an afternoon in. For those who are very well read and those who…read morehaven't picked up a book in awhile, I can guarantee you'll find a title that catches your eye. This place has a very apparent and pointed purpose for existing. Not necessarily to convert everyone into being anarchists, but more so wanting to encourage free, critical thinking. It's certainly worth a visit and had so many intriguing books that brought me a lot of joy to browse through.

After walking around the neighborhood, this one had seating, so we went inside. First, I'll say the coffee we tried was pretty good - a cappuccino and a brown sugar cinnamon latte. The barista asked "for here or to go" and the drinks still came in a paper cup anyway despite us saying "for here". I really enjoy having a coffee in an actual glass/mug when I say "for here". The ambiance was a bit confusing... not really sure what they were going for in the space, things were a bit choppy and thrown together. Kinda felt like you were in someone's garage with cluttered items on rickety shelves behind the counter. Our barista was very nice, but an awkward moment occurred when they were ringing us up - barista asked for a tip but then told us not to put the tip on the credit card because the owner steals from them. We felt this was a little uncomfortable and gave some unwelcoming energy. We also tried a Nutella croissant, which was very good! I think this shop has a lot of potential with some changes to service and decor.
