    I'm so glad that I found this place near my office because it is affordable and tasty! I got the BTN bowl, which was quite filling, but definitely plan to come back again to try the Banh Mi next time I am craving some Vietnamese food. There's not much space inside, but it's great if you want some carry-out.

    A7 Shrimp Pho
    Amanda G.

    Back in the city at work and starving. I ordered the A7 Shrimp Pho and it was great for the price, with five huge shrimp, lots of noodles and a nicely developed broth. I didn't even have to ask for chili oil. They send it automatically, along with sriracha and hoisin. I wish I received chopsticks and a spoon but luckily my office has some to spare. I only work in the city from time to time, so I didn't know to request utensils with my order. Will be ordering for them again as I have yet to be disappointed.

    Ordered a Pho Saigon. Rare or Cooked Sliced Flank Steak, Beef Shin & Beef Balls. The service was very good , in this small take out place.

    Bun thit nuong w/ Cha gio special
    Jenny J.

    With few Vietnamese options in the area, I have ventured out to Boi-licious to get my fix. Their noodle bowl wasn't bad, and their Vietnamese iced coffee is solid. What I take issue with is their banh mis. I've tried their Pork Belly banh mi and Sliced Duck Breast banh mi, and maybe I still need to sample the classic Banh Mi Saigon, but with my current experience, I'm taking the safer route and heading to Joju instead. The only flavors in the banh mis I've tried come from an overload of salt and black pepper, as well as mayo. As you can see from the photo of the sliced duck breast banh mi, there was not nearly enough cucumber--literally just one stick. (They also forgot to remove the jalapeños even though I asked for not spicy.)

    I was excited to get some Vietnamese food to go. I got bun thit nuong. It didn't quite hit the spot as much as I would have liked. The guy did give me a mango dessert though which was super nice! I would maybe try something different.

    Wait time during lunch was long. Decided to try the lemongrass tofu bahn mi with spice. The bread was absolutely delicious and the fresh jalapeños were pretty spicy. The vegetables and herbs were fresh. Overall there could've been more filling. Tofu was good but could've been more flavorful with lemongrass. Would definitely come back ans get this again.

    It was a cold day and I needed warm and healthy, and no line. This place usually has a line of people both ordering and waiting for their orders. They're fast...it's the demand for their fresh ingredients. I had the chicken pho this time, spicy on the side. It comes with a hoisin sauce and siracha packet, with enough spicy sauce to light you up. The broth is well wrapped in a smaller container. The protein and fresh onions, noodles and fresh green seasoning layered in the main bowl. I rush back to the office to mix it up and always feel satisfied and like I made a good choice. The staff are polite and efficient. I've had their bah mi in the past and it's good too...worth a good lunch. Price was about $12. This is a carry out place, no room to sit.

    Taro coconut milk tapioca pudding
    Lailah J.

    Absolutely superb!! I would've mistaken this hole-in-the-wall Vietnamese takeout joint for a cell phone shop and walked on by if it weren't for Yelp. Located on E. 44th off to the side of Grand Central station with an unassuming store front, this place makes some of the best banh mi in the city! The guy minding the counter told me the Banh Mi Saigon is his favorite sandwich here so that's what I ordered, and it did not disappoint! The bbq lemongrass pork rice box is also terrific, with tender and flavorful pork slices, served with a zesty sauce (your choice of dressing - I picked sesame basil). My toddler and I devoured the creamy taro tapioca pudding. I'm eager to try the pho, bun bo hue, coconut soups, and ramen next, but if this experience is any indication, I have high expectations of those other dishes too. I just love hidden gems like this - totally unembellished and unexpected, serving top notch food! The great prices are an extra plus.

    C15. Chicken Curry Soup
    Dylan M.

    The takeout spot is a hidden gem. I recommend ordering ahead of time before you go there because there is limited standing room inside and no seating. I had to wait 15 minutes since I didn't order in advance. I got the Chicken Coconut Curry Soup. It was a really good size for a pretty affordable meal. If you are a messy person, I recommend being careful because they serve the soup broth separately from the meat and vegetables.

    Order: - Grilled pork bahn mi (5/5) - Pork summer rolls (4/5) Pros: - Great tasting food. The bahn mi was really filling. The pork summer rolls had a little too much mint for my taste, but was still really good - Affordable. One of the few places in the area where you can get a cheap meal and not be fast food - Quick service Cons: - Small store. Most people wait outside for their food to come out because of how small it is inside. Don't worry; the staff comes out with the food when it's ready Overall: Great place for a quick/cheap meal but great tasting Vietnamese food. I will definitely be ordering from here more

    S31. BBQ Pork

    I love this spot. It's a tiny hole in the wall joint but their pho and sandwiches are amazing. It's a small operation with one guy working the register and one guy in the kitchen, but they're fast and friendly. You can't go wrong with either their pho, curry pho or banh mi. It's a great spot to pick up dinner next to Grand Central. Their banh mi's are huge and very flavorful. The other day, I picked up a banh mi for myself and a breakfast burrito for my girlfriend down the street from Little Collins, and no disrespect to Little Collins because their breakfast burrito is really good too, but take a look at the size difference between the Boi-licious banh mi compared to Little Collin's breakfast burrito. And the banh mi was cheaper too!

    Sometimes the best food you'll ever eat comes from a hole in the wall place in the middle of midtown. It's so small, there is no place to sit so you'll have to be good with taking it out. But for all the small that Boi-licious is, there is a huge stamp of approval for quality and taste delivered in your Take Away Bag. As you wait in line, pay homage to the their little sacred place in the corner. For me, seeing it makes this place much more bonfide. IYKYK. The price isn't bad either. This is definitely that little shop that you'll want to keep to yourself. But don't do that, share your experience outloud so more people come. After all, we wouldn't want this little gem to disappear.

    Popped into this new Vietnamese spot by Herald Square for a quick weekday lunch. The place is fresh…read moreand clean, with a modern self-serve setup where you order via iPad. I got the pho ($21.78), which is steep for pho, but I guess that's Midtown prices for you. The wait was a slog--over 20 minutes for a bowl of pho, which other Yelp reviews warned about. When it finally arrived, the soup lacked that authentic pho aroma, which was a letdown. On the plus side, the beef was fresh, and the reusable to-go bag was a nice touch. Decent, but the wait and price make it hard to love. Might try again if they speed things up.

I ordered "Plain Pho", which is described as just broth and noodles, no garnish or meat. After waiting 30 minutes, for what is literally the simplest item on the menu, the bowl is brought out and it's a bowl of broth with a couple slices of chicken. No noodles. When I inquired, the server told me it's because I ordered the Plain Pho... yea and I said it comes with noodles and broth. They told me they could get me noodles, but acted like they were doing me a favor by fetching noodles for me, which was quite offputting because the noodles were quite literally half of the dish I actually ordered. How does one wait half-an-hour at a very casual fast Vietnamese food place, for premade soup and noodles, and still have the order wrong? In the end, I did get my noodles and broth, but the fact that I had to spend this much time and also justify my request for noodles (which are part of the dish) is quite insane. I put this at 2 stars for now, because I enjoyed my first time. Hopefully the service will improve.

So when my family stumbled into Pho 39, a tiny spot with just a handful of tables tucked away from the chaos outside, it felt less like finding a restaurant and more like discovering a Rebel outpost that somehow survived undetected in the middle of Imperial territory. The menu is exactly what you'd expect from a solid Vietnamese spot: pho, combination rice plates, the usual lineup. We were ready to order and move on with our lives. Then we saw the tacos. Vietnamese tacos. On the menu. Sitting right there between the banh mi and the spring rolls like they'd always belonged. Nobody in my family said anything for a full three seconds, which for us is basically a standing ovation. We ordered the duck spring rolls to start, which were fresh, well packed, and disappeared faster than a starfighter in hyperspace. For the mains we went with the beef flank pho and the banh mi combination special. The pho had a clean, well developed broth that clearly had some time put into it, and the beef flank was tender enough to make you slow down and pay attention. The banh mi combo was solid, balanced, and hit all the right notes. We did not get the tacos this visit, which means we have a built in reason to return and nobody can argue with that logic. For a small room in the middle of one of the busiest cities on the planet, Pho 39 manages to feel genuinely calm and focused. Good food, good value, and a menu with enough surprises to keep things interesting. The Force is strong with this little spot.

My sandwich was ready for me too which was great, in and out, easy. The sandwich itself is delicious! It comes with a small ramekin of very spicy rooster sauce. I would definitely order for pickup from here again for the days I want to grab a quick lunch and get right back to work!
