Staying in the area and kids wanted noodles for dinner. We found this place online so decided to check this place out. More of a takeout spot but they do have three little tables and bar seating for 4-5 people. We ordered a bit of everything: - classic banh mi - well done brisket pho - chicken pho - bbq pork vermicelli - lavender ice Vietnamese coffee - butterfly pea sparkling lemonade Surprisingly for a Vietnamese restaurant, it was a bit slow for the food to come out but they also had a steady stream of takeout orders coming in. The food was delicious and portions are smaller than the normal pho restaurant (it's more like food hall pricing and portions). It worked out for us since we didn't want to have to bring leftovers back. The little ones loved it as well!
Wow, that Nashville Hot is a game changer! It doesn't replace Hot chicken from Nashville by any means but boy does it make for a tasty sandwich! Wanted some banh mis without having to drive into the Boston area and this place popped up! We took the drive and it was so worth it! The place from the outside looks like it used to be an old doctors office or something of the sort - looks like a house basically. I think there's a parking lot behind the restaurant but we found a spot right across the street. The place is def more of a takeout spot but there are 3 small tables with chairs as well as some counter seating. We got in and ordered a plethora of dishes - fresh rolls, crispy rolls, crispy fried fish, Nashville hot chicken banh mi, chicken pho and 2 drinks (Vietnamese coffee and Blood Moon - Lychee Berries refresher). We enjoyed everything - maybe I wouldn't order the crispy fish again as is but wouldn't mind trying to see how it would be in a banh mi. Chicken pho had a nice flavorful broth chock full of chicken pieces and comes with a nice little pouch of aromatics. The only issue with the fresh rolls were that the wrapper stuck to the paper plate and so it peeled off some of the paper with it, making parts of the wrapper inedible but the peanut sauce was delicious! But the star was that dang hot chicken banh mi. The flavors worked so well with the toasty French baguette, pickled veggies and fresh herbs. We liked it so much we ordered another one to go along with a classic banh mi and a grilled pork banh mi. My go to for banh mis is usually the classic cold cut one but there was something lacking from what I typically would enjoy. Not bad but not great - it was our least favorite of the 3 we sampled. Def worth the drive back to try other options! Service was super friendly and quick. Everyone was full of smiles and made our dine in experience super enjoyable. Can't wait to come back!
I've eaten at their Waltham location but I was in the Foxborough area (10 minutes away from the Wrentham Premium Outlets). I got the usual, the cold cut combo sandwich and the nashville hot chicken. We also got 3 bowls of their Pho. Food is good, place is clean and staff were friendly. There are a few tables for you to dine in, definitely not as big as their Waltham location. Plenty of free off street parking in the lot just behind the restaurant.
Good Vietnamese food in suburban area desperately in need of Asian food variety. Small place on side street, only 3 tables and a counter. Stopped in for early dinner. Two lemongrass beef banh mi sandwiches - good, but bread not crispy, and very limited beef, otherwise flavors were there. Fried fish appetizer was okay, nothing special. A vermicelli w egg roll dish that was fresh and egg roll pieces hot and crispy. Three drinks - Vietnamese cold coffee, a lychee/berry and a passion fruit/guava - the drinks were great. We also ordered a banh mi w JIT chicken that was overly spicy to the point of being inedible and not worth the effort. Young woman at counter was helpful and offered suggestions. Place is worth visiting and we will have it in our list of local places when needing Vietnamese food. Beef pho was sold out, which is a good sign.
Being Vietnamese, I can attest to the authenticity and flavor of the food here at Banh Mi Oi. The food is full of flavor and is absolutely delicious. I was truly excited to have quality Vietnamese food nearby since moving to the area from Boston, where Vietnamese food is abundant. The staff are very friendly and the service is quick. The restaurant is small and has an interesting layout, but it works if you're just staying for a quick eat and then leaving. We've tried several Banh Mis including the original cold cut, the bbq pork, and the hot chicken. The baguette is heavenly and incredibly flaky/crispy. We've also tried the bbq pork vermicelli dish and the chicken rice bowl-- both very tasty and full of flavor. We tried the shrimp salad and a couple of appetizers including the spring rolls and egg rolls. Overall, we give this restaurant 4 stars for their amazing food and friendly staff. The high prices and small portion sizes are what kept us from giving this restaurant a 5 star rating. $10 for a Banh Mi and $14 for a small bowl of pho is on the pricey side, especially when compared to any Vietnamese restaurant you find in Chinatown or Dorchester.
I stopped in to grab a sandwich as I was passing through town and was happy to have found this cute restaurant. I love the decor, and the staff is friendly. I got a crispy shrimp bahn mi and was disappointed to do that the shrimp were fried with their tails on, which meant I had to take them out of my sandwich and remove their tails in order to eat them. Otherwise, the flavors were delicious and my boba tea was great.
Delicious food. Fresh ingredients. I tried two separate meals. Cute little spot. Friendly and low key staff.
Decent food and nice quiet place off the beaten path. Sadly, you could walk past and not even know a restaurant is there. Steak and pork bahn mi were flavorful but both meats were very dry. Nashville hot chicken is a unique item but had zero flavor and only tasted of chili powder. If they drizzled it with hot honey it would be amazing. The chicken itself was very crunchy and nice for fried chicken and it was a very generous portion as you can see from the photo. Crunchy roll appetizer was delicious. Staff was extremely pleasant and friendly but not trained well on allergens and didn't say thank you when I left a 25% tip - which happens at so many places these days I wonder why I even bother leaving tips at Togo places anymore.
Really fresh, enjoyable food and Vietnamese tea/coffee. Tucked into the side street near Gunther Tootie's and CVS, Banh Mi Oi is a small place with takeout and three tables. Nicely done decor and friendly folks. We got banh mi sandwiches (a French baguette so fresh that explodes when you bite into it, marinated meat and veggies, and herbs), fresh rolls (shrimp, pork, mint leaves, vermicelli noodles), fried crispy rolls (very fresh tasting). We came on day 7 after they opened, and they said that the pho soup would be coming that weekend - we can't wait to go back!
I'm rounding off a 4.5 to give it 5 stars. On two different occasions we had the Lemongrass Steak Salad, BBQ Chicken with Rice and a Banh Mi Classic Cold Cuts sandwich. I thought prices were quite reasonable for what you got, the ingredients were fresh and good and quality was good as well. Portions were reasonably generous. I especially liked my Banhi Mi sandwich. Ingredients were good and tasty and the baguette was nice and crispy on the outside and soft and fresh on the inside. Next time add a little more cilantro.
I've been SO missing bánh mì since I stopped working downtown, but help has arrived! We had the chicken and pork sandwiches, as well as the fresh rolls and ube milk tea, and they were all fantastic. The bread is a perfect sandwich baguette, crispy and fresh, and the fresh rolls were minty and delightful. There are three tables plus barstools/rail, so it's a little tight for sit-down, but we did find a table Saturday at noon, and we saw a lot of to-go orders going out the door. Definitely happy this place is here.
Great food and nice atmosphere. Thai tea was on point and prices are cheaper in the restaurant compared to the online menu we viewed.
For Foxboro, I am just glad to see another Asian establishment. Good food options in Foxboro is rare enough so it's nice to have this little edition on work days It is a small shop that is cute. Maybe 3 2-seater tables with a few bar seats. Disappointed in their menu a bit as it's mostly catered to the demographic in the area but understandable. The pho options are not enticing but decent banh mi options. Originally wanted to try cold cut but the steak sounded good. It was a decent size for 1 per and good amount of steak. I definitely enjoyed it. Got a side of spring rolls as well and while I enjoyed it.. it didn't hit the spot. Couldn't really taste the pork belly or even see the pork belly and only 1 shrimp :( very skimpy on the protein and was mostly lettuce Overall.. it's good for Foxboro but it's definitely pricey. In general $9-$13 for banh mi is insane. Do I think it's worth the price? Probably not. Will I come back? If I forget lunch one day and wanted some banh mi read more

Went here for the first time and wasn't really sure what to expect based on the reviews. First, happy that I had read that there was no public restroom, and stopped at Dunkin before going to the restaurant. It is indeed a "no public facilities" place. We ate in, it was quite comfortable, with 2 or 3 small tables. I did get an actual metal fork. Onto the food: I had the lemongrass steak rice bowl, which came with a small cup of sauce. The beef was delicious and the vegetables (cucumbers, carrots, lettuce) were fresh and excellent. Unfortunately, the rice was not. It appeared that the rice had been leftover in the fridge -- it was very very hard and clumpy (could not break it up with a fork). It was all at the bottom of the bowl so I could not mix it together. Basically I ended up with lemongrass beef salad. Tasted good, but disappointed about the rice. My husband had one of the banh mi sandwiches. He was impressed by the amount of meat, and it tasted good. He said the bread was somewhat stale, but it was just before closing so probably understandable. Overall I think this would be a better lunch option, but I'm willing to try it again. Hopefully the rice issue was a one-off. read more

Super nice and friendly service and my husband loved the pho and it was quite a lot for 13.50$ but I had a mixed green salad with crispy fish for 14$ and it was fairly small, the fish portion was good but there were pieces of really really rotten greens in there to the point that it was on the good lettuce too and that made it taste gross. The sauce was yummy but the rot made me sad. The interior of the restaurant is small and quaint and is ok to sit there but I don't eat noodles and rice and I will never order the salad again so I guess I won't visit often. read more

I had pho, and it didn't smell like pho. No star anise or lemongrass.. It was very sour, and very salty. It tasted like beef broth, and got saltier the closer you got to the end. The banh mi was a dry roll with a slice of cucumber, a couple carrot strands and about 2 ounces of cold flavorless beef, and a few sliced jalapenos... I didn't notice the filling and felt like I was eating a dry roll. I was very disappointed after reading someone's review raving about how good the sandwich was. I had the saltiest bowl of soup and an unimpressive sandwich for $25. I put up pictures. Take a good look at the $11 sandwich. read more

Ok let me start by saying, this is the best thing that has happened in this town in a long time. The outside of this business is very modest, meaning you would not find it, if your not looking. My first impression is that it's a family business with alot of tradition and culture wrapped in one. The man that greets you at the counter is very nice and try's to understand your order, and accommodates you the best way he can. He is very sweet and polite. There were lots of people there today and he reaches out to me and found me a seat. Felt at home, if that makes sense. I ordered the hot chicken sandwich and OMG it's amazing! If you like spicy. The baguette was warm and crunchy, the chicken was amazing. It has some mayo carrot's etc, that add to the sweetness that is needed to counter the heat. I do feel like I needed ranch! Lol. The viet iced coffee was really good not too sweet like at other places. To make a long story short! Gooooo, runnn eat here! Lol read more

Ambiance is relaxing with plants and warm woods. Service is fast and friendly. Food is thoughtfully prepared, authentic, and mouth-watering. We got the lemongrass steak and sautéed prawn banh mi sandwiches. Baguette was crusty & light, pickled veggies added the perfect pop of flavor & crunch while the aioli was silky on the bread - just the right amount. Fresh cilantro and jalapeños topped both sandwiches with a just touch of herbs and heat. Their special house sauce is so delicious - a little umami, a little sweet, perfectly brings it all together. All housemade elements make these banh mi the bomb! Lemongrass steak was tender and so happy they got the balance on point (other places way overpower with Lemongrass). Sautéed prawns were gently seared, plump and loving the special sauce! We felt content and cared for as if a loving relative packed us lunch and sent us off for the day. This was our first time here (not the first time having Vietnamese cuisine). We will be going back to try the rest of the menu! read more

This is a very small cafe with 3 tables and some counter seats, but it has some BIG flavor. The bahn mi's are delicious. I've tried the Hot Chicken and the Cold Cuts. The Blood Moon drink and Ube coffee are also great! read more
