Place was recommended by a friend but it must have switched chef/owner since the last time he's been there. The new name is My Quang Hải Van. He told me the menu has changed but didn't have a chance to print out so he gave me a copy of the old menu instead. We ordered To-go based on my friend's recommendation. Bun mam, 3 banh mi thit nguoi, bun bo hue and com ga. All was for $54, definitely on the pricier side of Vietnamese foods but I thought it'd be ok if the foods are good. They also charged me more than the "old menu" that he gave me. Banh my was missing a lot of the key cut of meat (Gio thu, etc) and pate was no where to be found. The bun dishes were very skimming on the toppings. Bun mam had two little pieces of pork and was missing squid. The broth had a bun bo hue taste to it too which was strange and was too sweet. Bun bo hue didn't come with a pork knuckle or blood cube. Huge disappointment and we won't be back. read more

Waste of money, there's barely any meat. I spent $5 on this, there are places that charge cheaper and I get more and better quality. Don't waste your money here read more

Banh Mi Square - Banh mi thit nuong - Vietnamese Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I believe this place is under new management. The menu is not extensive, there is 4 soup entrees, 1 chicken rice plate & couple different Banh mi combos. I overheard the owner saying sometimes they have weekend specials. The staff/owners are very friendly, just be patient with them when it's busy. They have a couple different smoothie flavors with boba. If you're expecting fancy dining then this is not the place for you BUT if you want just like home flavorful food, this is the place! I have been craving mi quang for years & have been on a quest to look for something decent..finally found it. It was so good! They don't skimp on the veggie dish either which is real important. There was plenty of banana blossom which a lot of other restaurants don't include because it is expensive. My husband got the spicy beef soup (bun bo hue) & it was better then Cafe Diem's. If my mom doesn't make it at home, I am comfortable coming here to order it. Pricing..I think it's fair. Some might think it is a little high but the food is good, so it's totally worth it. This is my new favorite spot. read more

My favorite place for Bun Bo Hue and the Bun Mam here is better than anywhere else by a long shot. Bun Mam has everything w/out substitution: Roast pig w/ crispy skin, toasted eggplant, fish, shrimp, and veggie is not just generic (and inappropriate) bean sprout and basil for this soup. If you know this dish you know the veggies for it is different than that of pho. Can only vouch for this place since my last visit. Some chefs tend to not stay at a small place for long so let's hope this one stays in business. read more

I kept finding these weird brown chunks in my avocado smoothie, I'm guessing it was from the pit? My sister ordered a milk tea, but she complained of it still having powder that hasn't dissolved. We brought it back, and they gave us a refund but it was still the same quality. Maybe I'll come back to try their sandwiches later on. -UPDATED REVIEW- The owner had contacted me and thankfully they were nice and apologized for the incident. I came back today and ordered the avocado smoothie again, and it's great! One of the best customer services I've ever seen! Would recommend to my friends and family. read more

It's a hole in the wall place ... want some good hoagies and chicken and rice , it's the place to go . I must of went here 10 times since the summertime . I wish I didn't scarf down my platter , I would of taken a pic for you guys lol read more

This location has changed hands a few times since I originally came here. Its a small business tucked into the outside hallway in the Oregon Market where there are about 5-6 other businesses... Not a huge menu, but they do offer a few more items other than their Vietnamese hoagies. Standard price of about $4 per sandwich. It's been remodeled since the last time I was there. Although they got my order wrong, I still enjoyed what was made... If I'm in the area and want a quick bite to eat, I'd try this place again. read more

Don't bother going to this place. Food is not good. Also, the person making your food is some random business owners friends who did not bother to wear gloves or have the decency to wash her hands. Stay away! read more

Disappointingly bad banh mi and bubble tea. This might actually be the worst banh mi I've ever had. Grilled pork itself was okay, but there wasn't enough of it in the sandwich, along with not enough pickled daikon/cilantro/etc. It basically was a cucumber sandwich. The fried tofu banh mi was the same story, except that the fried tofu was dry and flavorless. The bubble tea had mushy bubbles, and the tea itself didn't redeem anything. read more

Came here for Bun Bo Hue, which is not on the menu but they have it, since Cafe Nhan was closed. Was hoping to find the next great Bun Bo Hue but it didn't compare to the top 3 typical places. It was good, flavorful broth but it wasn't spicy. On the other hand, had the pork meatball Banh mi which was fantastic. Nice and soft on the inside but crusty on the outside bread. Flavorful pork. Disappointed in it's presentation, don't know if the server was a newbie. I had to go up twice to ask for the vegetables and then the mayo. Mayo was nice and creamy. Can't wait to go back for another Banh Mi and to try the beef stew! By the way, don't bother to check on Yelp, they don't honor the 10% discount. Also it's cash only even though they have credit card signs in their cash register. read more

I just wanted Bo Kho (Vietnamese Beef Stew) along with a baguette because my coworker kept raving about it! Out of luck since they were pretty much renovating/rearranging the shop. I was able to hold a conversation with the owner/manager and basically was telling me that by Monday it would be a restaurant. A small one, but they wanted to have more options to customers than just Banh-Mi and Bubble Tea. Since I already stopped by and I live all the way out in Delaware, I just ordered their Number 1 Sandwich. All I can say is, I've had better. However, I'll give this place another try at another time. read more

Banh Mi Square - Number 1 - Vietnamese Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

This store has a new owner(s). I used to order fried egg hoagie from the previous owner until one day I got very bad food poison from them. I stopped coming to the store. Since the new owner took over, this store has become my favorite. Everything looks different, seems spacier, clean and foods with drinks are very good. I have tried the bbq pork, the fried egg and the vegan hoagies. They are the best so far. Price is very reasonable. I love the avocado smoothie and their milk tea with boba. I don't have to go to Chinatown to get my fix anymore. read more

Banh Mi Square - My morning breakfast. Vietnamese Special cold cut hoagie. - Vietnamese Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Excellent Viet coffee and Bun Bo Hue. Wait staff is happy and you get a good value. Remember you are in a strip mall near 95 so it's is not fancy but the food is the attraction. Staff was friendly. read more

I really want to like this place... however each time I go it gets worse. Last night I decided to get some banh mi as apposed to going to ba le...which is always my go to... I came here. I waited 25-30 mins (no exaggeration) for my sandwiches and what makes it bad is that I was the only customer there! The grilled pork was ok wish they gave me more than 5 pieces of it though...wasn't worth the wait...the pork skin in the cold cut sandwich tasted like it went bad... No hate or shade to the employees there but it's always good to know the product of the food! I won't be returning and wouldn't recommend this place to any of my friends. read more

Banh Mi Square - I mean... this was such a disappointment. - Vietnamese Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

It's a new little spot that nobody knows about it's very small but the food Pretty good. They want had crawfish on here I just wish they had all The Times as for the banh mi I wasn't so happy with that because they put soy sauce in my hoague which fukkks up eveyhtunf uggg yuck. On a positive note they do have amazing drinks read more

If you're looking for banh mi that isn't very typical, fixed this place a try. I recommend getting the grilled pork (#3). On the outside, the roll was fresh and tasty. On the inside, the pork was very warm and flavorful. I would definitely get another one. read more

The tofu was uncooked, the whole sandwich was bland and had no carrots at all. Won't be going back.

This place was beyond ridiculous yesterday and maybe racist. I went on a Sunday afternoon and they were mildly busy. I didn't mind because all I wanted was a hot coffee. However, the girl at the counter went ahead and took the two white people orders after me and made their orders of food and drinks. Still, I held my patience because I thought maybe they forgot. They are busy. So, I went to remind her of my one cup of coffee. She told me she'll check the order in the back. Really? How hard is it to pour coffee over condense milk? Anyways, I still gave them the benefit of the doubt. But after I went to sit down, she went on ahead to make 2 more ice coffee for another white customer. This was when I lost my cool and demanded my money back. I already waited 30 mins for a cup of coffee that I didn't even get! She still had the nerve to tell me it's being made right now, but I refused. I took my money and went next door to pho ha which was much busier and had my coffee done in less than 5 mins. It was also cheaper. I could give this place no stars if I could! Don't go here if you're not white or Vietnamese because you're not a valued customer to them. read more

Great banh mi and bun bo hue. We'll have to make sure to try the rest of the items on the menu!

The banh mi is not very consistent or good like Cafe Vinh Long, but it's a good spot with a lot of fresh options. For the Whitman neighborhood, it's a great place to get sandwiches and quick snack. read more

Great banh mi, great coffee
