    I came here for lunch after attending the San Francisco Marathon race expo over at the nearby Fort Mason. This restaurant was located on Steiner St near Chestnut St. Very easy to find. The store was very nice, clean, and inviting. They're a chain that focused primarily on bánh mì. I ordered their ribeye steak dip. It was their most expensive item for sandwiches. It was a bit pricey and strange to be paying over $20 after employee health surcharge, tax, and tip for food that normally would be quite affordable at a Vietnamese restaurant. However, it was probably the best bánh mì that I had ever eaten! The staff here was very nice and friendly.

    I decided to order the chicken pho for lunch, They have a very large menu so you can choose what you would like to eat. The service was very quick and professional. The broth was delicious. You can't go wrong with any item you order. Ambiance is very clean and consistent like their other locations,

    I really like chicken banh mi and I enjoyed the one I had here. The prices aren't terrible, and the vibe is very fast casual. The service was good and it hit the spot, but pate is a $1.75 add on which is a little odd because that's usually just a standard part of the sandwich.

    Great banh mi! Super flavorful and tender chicken, yummy veggies, and also has a nice mayo sauce. I liked the crunchiness of the bread which didn't (!) hurt the roof of my mouth to eat. Also not too expensive for the Marina area. I also tried the chicken pho and while the soup was delicious, I didn't love the chicken (slightly dry) and the noodles (very al dente). Would come back to try other banh mi options though!

    Crunchy Saigon Chicken Salad

    I was craving a really good chicken salad, and this place delivered! The Saigon Chicken Salad is a must-try! the chicken is so tender and juicy, and the dressing is perfectly balanced: tangy, not too sweet or sour. I noticed a lot of people ordering pho, but I'm so glad I went with the salad (they also have healthy Asian bowls). Everything just tasted right. Definitely adding this spot to my go-back list! There's only one person at the check out counter, and he's super friendly and helpful when I asked a ton of questions about the menu. The space is also a nice place to chill with a book while eating a good meal or hang out with friends.

    Tofu bun mee
    amy T.

    I'm a big fan of bun mee. I've been going to the location on Fillmore Street and figured it would be the same. Yum. We went there today to pick up sandwiches to take to Moscone. It's the first weekend of spring! The sandwiches are so good. They ask if you want jalapeños and of course, we do! I got the tofu bun mee because it's the only vegetarian option. He got the first item on the sandwich menu which was the five spice chicken. The bread is crunchy and fresh. Yum! I love the ratio of carrots and cilantro. I'm taking one star off my delicious experience because they have beer and wine on their menu, but don't have their liquor license apparently to serve. They should just cover up that part of their menu to be transparent. If you do want beer or wine, go to Marina Deli otherwise, get Vietnamese New Orleans style coffee.

    I am soooo happy a bun mee opened in the marina. There bun mee sandos are the best I have had in the city and its location near chestnut is ideal for marina bites. I have also tried the noodles but the sand which is far superior imo. Friends staff and wait times for food was short. PLEASE DO YOUR SELF A FAVOR AND GO HERE!

    Chicken Banh Mi and Crispy Egg Rolls
    Rani S.

    I was excited to see another Banh Mi spot open up in the Marina. I got a chicken banh mi and crispy egg rolls. I used to go to Asian Box nearby for Banh Mi in the area and this one was a lot better -- it was packed with veggies but still didn't feel like too much, the chicken was tender, and the bread was a good texture. The crispy egg rolls and sauce it came with were rich in flavor as well! My friend got a lemongrass tofu and enjoyed it as well, and mentioned this would become a go to spot for her. The service was good as well and prices were reasonable. This is a good spot for affordable, quick, high quality food!

    Bun Mee opened last week in the Marina but I discovered this location yesterday while walking the dog. I stopped by for takeaway lunch & ordered the classic combo sandwich without jalapeño or onions & a golden milk tea boba. The dining room is a decent size for a quick meal if you're planning on dining in & neat & clean. My sandwich was ready in less than 10 minutes. The baguette was nice & crispy & the filling was a generous amount of pate, mortadella & lemongrass pork. The cucumbers & pickled daikon & carrots added brightness & additional flavor. It's a pretty big sandwich so I only ate half. The golden milk boba tea is actually black tea with milk, boba & sugar. It runs on the sweet side. Service is quick, friendly & helpful. Welcome to the Marina neighborhood Bun Mee! I'm glad that I don't have to go to the Tenderloin for a good Vietnamese sandwich & will return to try other menu items soon,

    Crispy Fried Chicken Bun
    Terry R.

    Bun Mee nailed their crispy fried chicken bun! The chicken contained all the crispy and juicy goodness you expect from fried chicken and was elevated with the fluffy bun, slaw and sauce! SOO GOOD! The young man who took our order on 11/2, midday was very welcoming and helpful, proving that good customer service elevates any dining experience. We also had another person (perhaps the manager) come out and check on us which was more than what I would expect from a order at the register restaurant. Restaurant was clean with plenty of indoor seating. Bun Mee definitely won me over today!

    Classic combo
    Christine M.

    I came in on a Saturday at lunch time and I was the only one there. I got a Classic Combo sandwich and some sort of strawberry lemonade type drink that I think they make themselves. They have a good amount of seating (inside only) if you want to eat there. The bread was nice and crispy, but I was underwhelmed by the pork- it was kind of chewy. The mortadella was sliced so thin and there wasn't much so you could hardly taste it. Pate was good but I would have liked more. Pickled veggies were nice and crisp. Drink was good and not too sweet! Staff was very nice.

    Top notch service. They had really friendly counter staff people that remembered your name, which was appreciated. Food came out fast, and food was yummy! Good portion size too. Plenty of seating indoors that I enjoyed. I will likely be back

    Five spice chicken banh mi
    Brian G.

    Banh mi in the Marina? Much needed! I ordered the five spice chicken and it was super tender, with good flavor. They give a decent amount of meat. The bread I enjoyed since it wasn't too toasted, a bit softer than a baguette. Overall, ingredients tasted fresh and high quality.

The tuna tartare served on crunchy taro chips was wonderfully balanced--honestly, my only wish was for a few more chips because the flavor was so good. ​For mains, the tender beef cheek over celeriac mash with crispy enoki mushrooms and the rich Thịt Kho mushroom dish were both hits.

Some dishes were better prepared than others, but overall, the food was solid across the board. If you enjoy making your own spring rolls, you'll love the grilled pork skewers. The pork is super tender and has such a incredible flavor profile of lemongrass, garlic, fish sauce, and more. Rolled up with the woven vermicelli noodles and fried wonton crisps in a rice paper, you get a wonderful combination of texture in a single bite. The other crowd favorite of the night was the bánh xèo -- the stuffed rice crepe. The bánh xèo here is by far the best one that I've ever had, even surpassing ones I had in Vietnam. The outside was insanely crispy and and was surprisingly not particularly oily, while the inside was loaded with fillings. Two other dishes that were well received by the group was the betel leaf wrapped grilled beef and the sugar cane shrimp. The beef had a very similar flavor profile as the pork, but the texture was a lot more lean. The shrimp had a bouncy, yet firm texture to it, and was very well-seasoned. My only qualm with the shrimp dish is that the sugarcane did not actually have any sweetness to it. There's fish sauce on the table along with a shrimp paste sauce, but to be honest, every dish we had was so flavorful on its own, the sauces aren't even needed. The only dish that we ordered that fell short was the grilled river shrimp. The presentation of the shrimp is impressive and very photogenic, but the flavor was lacking and the cook was inconsistent. Some people had shrimp that was undercooked -- borderline raw, and on the other end of the spectrum, others had shrimp that was so overcooked, that it was very difficult to remove the shrimp from the shell without completely tearing the meat. That said, everything else we ordered was well-prepared, and very tasty. Service was good throughout the meal, and I would definitely come back again for a meal with a large group. 4.5 experience rounding up to a 5.

(I also didn't order; my Vietnamese friend did, so I don't even remember the names of the dishes.) This restaurant (but not this location) does a 7(?) course beef meal. So we tried to imitate a similar experience here by ordering different dishes a la carte. The beef carpaccio was delicious. We also had a beef salad. And we got a few different beef sausage style dishes. They were served with rice paper to make our own rolls. It took a few tries to make a good looking roll, but it was a fun experience, and all of the dishes we had were tasty. The service was attentive and friendly. We had made a reservation since there were 7 of us, and they had a round table which I love for group dinners. We got there around 6pm, but within the hour, the restaurant was FULL on a Thursday night. Every single table was taken. I had no idea this place was so popular. Would come back.

Service, at least upstairs in the large but rather austere room, was done by a very direct waitress who seemed to be either used to culling tourists, or was being very direct about the menu, possibly both? We were essentially told to order garlic noodles, crab, beef, veggies, and not much else. Now to be fair those dishes were all good to excellent, particularly the crab and the garlic noodles, with friends absolutely raving about both. Seafood fried rice was good as well, although portions (aside from the crab) were not large, so expect to order more dishes than you might expect. The overall meal was very tasty, the physical vibe worked, but the menu felt more limited than expected, and combined with the terrible parking in the area, it didn't feel like the exceptional meal that was hyped.
