The best option right before a 5 hr plane ride. Chicken pho was what my soul needed. The lemongrass chicken bahn me was delicious and was able to eat half on the airplane as well. I was so hungry I even got a vermicelli bowl. The sauce wasn't as great as an authentic Vietnamese restaurant. Still ate it. read more

As far as airport food goes, this one takes the cake. I was looking for a place to grab lunch as I had an hour to go before boarding my flight. Bun Mee just so happened to be located right next to my gate. They have some hot pho you can order or some ready to eat items such as banh mi sandwiches and spring rolls. I was really feeling shrimp spring rolls so I got one of those and also placed an order for a vietnamese iced coffee. The iced coffee came out immediately. It's likely premade and they just have to dispense it. They use Cafe Du Monde coffee here which is a nice plus. I thought the ratio of condensed milk and sugar to the coffee itself was perfect - the richness of the drink paired so nicely with the cool, light flavors of the shrimp roll. The spring rolls tasted very fresh and are sizable - you get 2 big rolls that are cut in half, so 4 pieces in total. I boarded my flight feeling energized and nourished. read more

This may not be everyone's opinion but if I go to a place to eat, even if the food isn't all that great but the customer service is, I won't complain it is what it is, I'm gunna eat if I'm hungry. But this place had the worst customer service I've had in a long time. They ignored my request for an extra slice of lime, gave me a quick no before I even finished my sentence asking if they had chili oil... and the noodles were way too hard! Bad service, bad food! read more

The food took a little long to come out so consider this if you are in a rush to catch a flight. The food was really fresh and tasty considering it was located in the airport. The sweet potato fries were fries fresh, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. If you have time to enjoy a meal this is a good option in the terminal. read more

Came by for a pre-flight snack the other day and it was a mediocre experience. Bun Mee is located at the food court within Terminal 3, towards the F gates. Ordering was available via kiosk or with the staff. Staff wore gloves and the sandwiches were prepared in front of customers. Most of the meats looked tired... Opted for an order of egg rolls and they were decent. The egg rolls were warm and seemed like they were mostly vegetarian. The fish sauce was on the sweeter end. $9 for a couple egg rolls read more

Love this go to spot at terminal 3 when I fly out of sfo. The food is great comparing to other spots in the airport. I got the chicken salad. Very fresh and good balance of good quality chicken, with pickled carrot and dailon. Go light on the dressing. I have also gotten their pho before (harder to carry but also solid.) No dedicated sitting area but still nice to find a sunny spot under the sky light. read more

I got the Kids Chicken and Rice bowl for $11.54, which includes tax and a 5% employee health surcharge. You're probably better off finding somewhere else to eat. The rice was a bit tough and chewy, and while the chicken was at least seasoned, the meal overall just didn't really come together. It works in a pinch if you're stuck at the gate, but I'd suggest looking at other terminal options first. read more

Right before catching a connection flight, I'm always down for a combo sandwich from Bun Mee! Beats an inflight meal all day everyday! Fairly fast and efficient. Kiosk avail for self ordering or if you prefer to have help, just ask. Receipts are emailed if chosen via kiosk. I'm usually connecting through SFO and today's flight is at 7 and most meat options and veggies are already out and sitting (not sure how long) would be my only question but hoping it's all fresh! read more

At SFO, we are very fortunate to have numerous appetizing food options. As I was considering what I wanted to take on my cross-country flight at 6 AM, Bun Mee was fortunately open and serving lunch (not just breakfast items). I placed my order of a tofu banh mi on the kiosk and waited about 10 minutes for my sandwich. Everything looked fresh - even the baguette was toasted to order. My sandwich was quickly assembled and wrapped so I could conveniently carry onto my flight. I didn't end up eating my sandwich until a few hours into the flight, and to my surprise, it wasn't soggy at all. There were also tons of flavors, including garlic aioli, 5-spice tofu, and pickled vegetables. I really liked the 5-spice flavoring on the tofu, but the slabs of tofu were a little too thick for the sandwich (thus making the sandwich difficult to eat). Because the sandwich was stuffed with tofu and veggies, a lot of the sandwich fillings escaped the sandwich roll, making a small mess at my seat. If I were to order it again, I'd definitely grab a stack of extra napkins and a bag to catch everything that falls out of the sandwich. I may also try ordering the bowl instead. read more

Bun Mee - Made-to-order banh mi - Vietnamese Near Me - South San Francisco, California

Ordered: Five Spice Chicken Banh Mi (~$15): with onions, pickled carrots and daikon, cucumber, jalapeños, Vietnamese herbs, and garlic house mayo on toasted baguette Ribeye Steak Dip Banh Mi (~$17): pho-inspired sliced ribeye with cucumber and bean sprouts, served with a side of house-made bone broth Sweet Potato Fries (~$5): served with red curry mayo Aya's take: It's super rare to have a decent, reasonably priced meal at an airport so as you can imagine, I was impressed with Bun Mee offering decent, clean, and healthy banh mis at the terminal! Both Banh Mis were well-made with my preferred one being the Ribeye Steak Dip Banh Mi. It sliced ribeye was fresh & seasoned, there was some kind of mayo inside which made it creamy and the crunchy freshness of the cucumber and bean sprouts came through in every bite. The Five Spice Chicken Banh Mi is a more classic style Vietnamese sandwich but again, very solid! The Sweet Potato Fries were so addicting! I could not stop eating them. They were crispy, airy, and a nice balance of savory & sweet. Price-wise, everything was very reasonable considering it is the airport. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a bite to eat at Terminal 3! read more

Stopped by for a quick grab before my flight, airport prices, airport quality, so I didn't expect much. I ordered the Lemongrass Pork bánh mì. The baguette was soft with a little crunch. The pork had flavor but the portion was a bit small and slightly salty. Thankfully, the pickled carrots helped balance everything out. Service was okay, nothing special, but overall it was decent for a quick airport meal. read more

Taking motion sickness meds on an empty stomach and gambling on airport food is crazy... but worth it this time. I had about 30 minutes before boarding and my gate was about a 10 minute walk from Bun Mee, but that menu was way too tempting to ignore. I ordered ahead online thinking it would save me time, especially in an airport setting where everything feels rushed. When I got there and checked in, my order hadn't even been started yet. The employee began making it right then which I understand, they want it fresh, but it kind of defeats the purpose of ordering ahead when you're on a time crunch. I ordered the salt and pepper garlic fries and the crunchy Saigon chicken salad. The fries came in a huge portion packed with onions and jalapeños. I was able to snack on about half while speed walking back to my gate. They were crispy, hot, and super aromatic which is exactly what you want from fries. Flavor wise though, it leaned more salty with a light onion presence rather than a strong garlic salt and pepper flavor, but for around $5 it was still very worth it and easily shareable. I didn't get to eat the salad until after I landed, mainly because I had no time and also didn't want to open something that fragrant on a plane. Surprisingly, it held up really well after the flight. Everything still tasted fresh and the flavors were honestly the highlight. It had that strong fish sauce base balanced with a sweet citrusy tang that made it really addictive. I just wish there was more of the peanut crunch mix and crispy elements because that texture contrast would have taken it even further. The sous vide chicken was super tender and soaked up the dressing really well. It is a bit pricey at a little over $18 for a salad, but it didn't give airport. Overall, this is a really solid airport option if you have a little bit of time. Just don't fully rely on ordering ahead if you're cutting it close, but flavor wise it definitely stands out from typical airport food. read more

Great Banh mi. Quick order and delicious. The Vietnamese iced coffee is great too. Very courteous crew.

For airport food, it is very good. This place is located in SF airport, terminal 1. They have good presentation and options of Vietnamese comfort food likes sandwiches (banh mi), phở, vermicelli (bun) and vietnamese coffee. The price is also decent for airport food. Pho is about $15, bánh mi (6 inch sandwich) $12, bun (vermicelli) $13, coffee $5. They have taro, coconut coffee... so good! The service is fast. You place self order via the tablet, get the number and wait for your order to be called. There are 3 ladies cooking, packing food and making coffee. I waited for less than 10 minutes. I had tofu vermicelli and taro coconut coffee. The vermicelli is pretty good with large portion. Veggies are fresh. The fish sauce is typical for the dish. No complaints here! read more

This is a nice option for buying something that can last a couple hours to eat on the plane. It's located at terminal 3 at SFO. I got the classic sandwich and it was still good after a few hours. The bread still had crispness, and the veggies were still crunchy. The veggies were very aromatic and well seasoned. The pork had good flavoring too. The only negative is my top bun got folded into something resembling a breadstick. But otherwise, it was tasty, satisfying, and the veggies made the sandwich really fresh. read more

SF airport near gates F has a food court with lots of food - Chinese, salads, coffee, fried chicken, Mediterranean, etc. I chose this Vietnamese place! Plenty of seating with some booths and regular tables shared between every stall at the food court, though it can get quite busy at almost all times. Sometimes they have artists playing live music too!! I got the original classic sandwich (banh mi), which includes lemongrass pork, mortadella, pare, pickled onions and daikon, onion, Vietnamese herbs and garlic mayo. SO FREAKING GOOD!! The toasted baguette is truly toasted and so crunchy on the outside but soft inside, the lemongrass pork is salty but compliments the crunchy pickled components well!! Only thing is wish they were more generous with the protein. They also gave me a free water cup, which is so nice considering the other stores said they'd have to charge for the empty cup. read more

*FOR AIRPORT FOOD* this was excellent. It satisfied every craving for something crispy, refreshing, yet incredibly savory and buttery from the mayo/pate. The actual banh mi roll was not the freshest but the ingredients inside were solid. I got a viet iced coffee with taro and it was delicious. Do not skip on the drinks, i think it's a perfect treat for after the meal. If you're in the airport make sure you grab something here if you're hungry! I was not disappointed at all. read more

I tell everyone that SFO has the best airport food in the U.S., largely attributable to Bun Mee. It is my go-to every time I fly domestically. I always get a banh mi and sometimes also a bowl. I like that the banh mi holds up for hours so that I can wait to enjoy it at my destination if I don't consume right away. The yummy bowls are best consumed while still fresh at the airport and make the perfect pre-flight meal, as they're packed full of flavour yet still light, so I don't feel stuffed or in a food coma after. Already looking forward to my next meal here! read more

Glad to have Bun Mee available as an option for airport food! While it's not quite the best banh mi you can get in the Bay, it definitely beats a lot of other airport food options. Ordering is done on a tablet and food is prepared quickly. I got the combo banh mi for $14.25 which is pricey but again, we gotta remember we're at the airport so these are airport prices. Turkey and cheese sandwiches sell for similar prices at the nearby shops so I'd pick banh mi over those any day! The banh mi came quite packed with filling and had a great mix of textures between the lemongrass pork, pickled carrots/daikon, cucumber, jalapeño, and cilantro. Wish it had more pate and Viet mayo but overall a great option to grab-and-go. read more

Bun Mee - Combo banh mi - Vietnamese Near Me - South San Francisco, California

This banh mi pretty much falls in line with what I expected from an airport banh mi. I ordered from a self-order kiosk (which I do admire them installing for efficiency), spend 3x the amount of a banh mi, my food arrived quickly, and was huge. So big in fact that I could barely fit it in my mouth. Everything in the sandwich should work. The mayo provides a bit of moisture, the cucumbers are fresh, the carrots are pickled and flavorful, and the 5 spice chicken is surprisingly tender, well seasoned, and juicy, however, the sandwich somehow falls a bit flat. I think it's related to the quality of the bread, the lack of butter, or an absence of jalapeño spice...or all three. I appreciate offerings like these in the airport, but if I weren't familiar with the sandwich, I'm not sure I'd choose this spot as my introduction. I wish them the best of luck though! They're certainly a popular stand! read more

In SFO so it's a quick service environment, I ordered on the mobile order iPad. The sandwich was okay to me. I felt like their bacon and eggs could've been warmer and the flavor wasn't necessarily to my liking but it was a very filling food option if you need that before your flight! Shareable potentially!

Consistently a letdown at the airport. The Vietnamese coffee is far too sweet; I recommend trying "extra ice, half cold brew" because a 60/40 split with cold brew still wasn't enough to cut it. The chicken banh mi was bland, dry, and overly heavy on carrots - it desperately needs more varied vegetables and less bread. Their pho is barely passable, and only in an emergency. Plus, $19 for a salad is simply outrageous. read more

The menu seemed promising and I was excited to try it. Unfortunately it didn't deliver. I ordered the lemongrass pork sandwich. It was just ok. The meat was way too sweet, and there was not enough spice to it. Also, no spicy mayo. I was not impressed by the touch screens used to order, then why add 20% tip if there's no service involved ??? Kind of a joke, really! Ambiance wise, you're still in an airport... Won't be back ! Also, after looking at the invoice, I noticed a 5% surcharge to "support employees health". How about the greedy business owners lower their cut of the cake and take responsibility for their employees health instead of forcing it on the clients wallet, unbeknownst to them ??? Ridiculous! read more

Honestly great for airport food. I got the chicken bahn mi and the chicken pho with the fries and the vanilla lychee drink. Chicken was tender in the sandwich and with the jalapeños it was perfectly spicy. Lychee drink was lovely. I don't have any photos because I pounded it lol. But the soup is like two servings and I have fries left over too for my flight. Def worth it even though it's pricey. It's an airport it's to be expected read more

The pork lemon grass sandwich had almost no flavor at all. Service was fine -- nice people-- but the product was surprisingly bad.

Was choosing between the two breakfast sandwiches here and went with the Bulgogi sandwich. Order placement and payment can be self-serve through two kiosks on the left side of the store front. The sandwich was pretty good. Sliced in half for ease of eating and photography! Soft bun, good flavor from the pork and kimchi, a bunch of different textures including cucumber and a fried egg with runny yolk. One comment and one minor complaint. This is pork bulgogi - I didn't really mind, but I didn't read the description carefully and assumed beef. Some pieces of pork are on the tougher side and some are quite fatty (not in a good way). A pretty good option for airport breakfast. read more
