    Crunchy Saigon Chicken Salad
    Honey Z.

    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!

    Chicken pho

    Came across this place near my hotel and got their chicken pho and a lychee vanilla tea. Chicken pho definitely needs more flavor and wish they didn't cook the bean sprouts in my pho. My lychee vanilla tea had short brown hair in it also which is disgusting. Service was fast and the tables outside are clean. Definitely have to try out their chicken sandwich and salad next time.

    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.

    Chicken Banh Mi
    Mary Bryan O.

    I ordered bun mee take out for delivery. I got the 5 spiced chicken banh mi and it was better than I expected! The chicken was well seasoned and tender. I chose to get japalenos on the side bc I wasn't sure how much spice I wanted. Overall, I would definitely get this again!

    Rainbow Salad with Tofu
    Matt J.

    Bun Mee was solid and likely a repeater, albeit not a total slam dunk. It's important to note that the people there were super friendly and accommodating with making recommendations, guiding me toward vegetarian options and hooking us up with extra dressing and sauce. The Rainbow Salad was fresh and appealing but could use some help in the flavor department. The green goddess dressing was nice but could use more salt and a greater quantity to better coat the salad fixings. Plus, it wouldn't hurt for them to mix it in for you even if it might hamper the titular "rainbow" presentation. The tofu was really well seasoned but the overall salad suffered from a bolus of cabbage that overwhelmed the flavor of the tofu and the dressing. Overall, I think it's just tweaks away from a really good dish but needs some massaging.

I realized I had not added seating accommodation to my reservation and tried to call, but no one answered. When we arrived, the hostess told us we would not be able to sit in any of the currently empty booths because reservations were coming in later. We were seated at a table off the dining space near the kitchen, my mom was a little too chilly and the booth didn't have enough neck support. I expressed to the host that though I was sorry I had forgotten to add accommodation, that this was just not the way to handle the problem. I was able to speak to the manager, who had been outside taking orders and was clearly working very hard that day. (Her name is quite uncommon so I'm just going to call her M, but I really appreciate your help!) She asked me what my concern was, and I told her, at which point she asked me to wait nearby while she figured out if she could rearrange some tables for us. The bartender was incredibly kind and served me while I waited, and distracted me from imminent tears by sharing intricate details about each drink he was making. I learned do they have a myriad of health oriented cocktails, with ingredients like turmeric, ginger, and aloe liqueur. The manager returned and said that she had already seated my mother in a new space and escorted me to the table, which allowed me to relax and enjoy the meal. At the beginning of the menu, they list the ingredients that are currently in season, and at the back of the menu, there is a color wheel, telling you the benefits of the colors of food. (Purple foods can assist with memory and brain function!). We ordered the asparagus, which was in season, spicy cucumber, and the Aji grill for two. The tofu that came with the grill for two was my favorite thing that we ate. I think you can judge a vegan / vegetarian restaurant by their treatment of tofu. Perfectly seasoned with a crispy outside and I would come back just for this. The cauliflower steak was also pretty tasty. The cocktails are excellent, we tried the BLACKPINK and my mother tried the espressotini and we were really happy with both. I don't know how popular their bar scene is, but I imagine it would be a nice way to meet other vegan and vegetarian folks over light bites. Our waiter Daniel made sure to give us the Mother's Day special dessert the restaurant had created, which was an avocado Grenache with fresh berries. If the experience had started with less stress, this review would be five stars, but I'm very grateful to the staff for doing what they could to correct it and ensure that we had a great Mother's Day! I would love to visit again and update my review :)

    Rooster & Rice is a chain with multiple locations serving up Khao Mun Gai (or Thai style chicken…read morerice), but my most recent order with them really fell flat. I ordered "The Original" with jasmine chicken rice, extra cilantro, cucumber, chicken skin (love that those are free add-ons), and an egg, and while the bowl was fine, all of the flavors felt like they could've been amped up several notches as everything leaned pretty bland and one note. I even swapped in the ginger scallion sauce, usually my favorite with Hainanese chicken, but it still fell flat and didn't bring the dish together the way I'd hoped. The dark meat was okay, if under-seasoned, but the breast meat was honestly pretty rough as it was extremely dry to the point where I was chasing each bite with water just to get it down. I added the chicken spring rolls as well, which were poorly wrapped and fell apart after a single bite, and they used the same overcooked white meat, making them basically inedible. If this is the standard for their white meat, I really think they should either stick to dark meat or make it clear that dark meat is an option without an upcharge. That said, my order was ready right when I expected it to be, pickup was smooth, and the staff were very nice and friendly, which keeps this from dropping lower in rating as I'm likewise hoping this was just an off night.

    Wasn't too busy on a Friday for lunch. Order came out Quick. Chicken was moist, the ginger sauce…read morepairs well with the rice and chicken.

That's just crazy to me considering it's farro and quinoa with some Caesar dressing and a couple pieces of reheated breaded chicken. That can be made in bulk cost for likely $10-15 so you are paying a serious premium here. Considering they do a lot of volume it's a rip off. I would give 5 stars if chicken or protein came INCLUDED in the salad/grain bowl, but as it stands you're better off heating up your own frozen chicken cutlets at home after buying their salad/bowl. You'll save like $12 after tax. I'm not usually one to comment about the price of things like this, but genuinely this is nearly double the price of Sweetgreen or MIXT for virtually the same product.
