Banh MI
Natasha S.

I stumbled across Miss Mai while wandering down James Place, just off Rundle Mall. I don't know why I was there, but I was, and Miss Mai caught my eye. Seeing the store I knew it was going to go one of two ways: I was either going to love it, or hate it. I'm instantly drawn to any place that serves banh mi (Vietnamese Rolls), but there's always the possibility that they're going to try and fill your roll with tomato and lettuce and things just go downhill pretty quickly from there. Thankfully this wasn't the case at Miss Mai, while I felt they skimped a little bit on things like coriander (never deny me my coriander if you want a 5 star review) the roast pork was deliciously crispy and so tasty. The roll didn't seem quite as fresh as some of the other ones I've had, and it didn't leave me cover in a shower of bread. Overall it wasn't the absolute best banh mi I've had, but it was great for something so close to Rundle Mall. Then I came back for some pho. The steaming bowl was brought out to me and I tossed in the bean sprouts, coriander, and added some hoi sin and chilli sauce. The meat felt a little bit tough, but the flavour of the broth was good. Once again, it wasn't the best pho I've had, but it was still pretty good. Great location & tasty food. Could be better, but I'm still not complaining.

Delicious honey chicken noodle salad

Stumbled on to Miss Mai on my lunch break. I'm in Adelaide for work and am not sure on many places to eat; but Miss Mai was delicious and decently priced for a genorous lunch. I had the honey chicken noodle salad, and shall be going back again whilst here.

I've been meaning to visit Miss Mai after seeing a line up every time I walk past. The line goes quite fast so not an issue. I ordered a roast pork banh mi and it didn't disappoint - the roll was jam packed with melt in your mouth crackling pork, with a decent amount of veggies to balance it out. Great value for money. Will go back to see how the chicken stacks up :)

Banh mi and service review only:…read more A combination of factors has set me in a slightly off mood today (Mondayitis!), so I'm trying to be generous. Little Hanoi (LH) and I have a past. A few months ago it was recommended as a great place to go for a cheeky banh mi, no fuss but worth a look. So I did. And the first one was actually pretty good from memory. But the 2nd, 3rd and now 4th time I've given LH a go I've been a bit disappointed. I actually walked right past LH on my way to Bread Temptations in Topham Mall because I'd heard good things, but, contrary to the advice on Yelp (!) Bread Temptations do not accept credit cards :-/ So I wandered back...also back past Soonta...which I think will be my next Banh Mi port of call. LH is OK, but what you get for the price charged, there are better Banh Mi being made in the CBD. Service: Is usually OK. Not that it takes forever to whip up a Banh Mi, so it's fairly quick. Banh mi: There are plenty of other options at LH besides banh mi, so maybe if you were to give LH a go, perhaps get a pho or something else. The banh mis are average at best. The rolls were soft. Not that this is always a bad thing, but I do prefer a nice crumbly, crunchy roll. Seems to carry the rest of the textures well. The meat was cold (again, not always a bad thing but I much prefer a bit of warmth) and there wasn't much packed in there at all. Slightly crunchy pork, but more fatty than crunchy, and the chicken was just...meh. Salad portion was all carrot, virtually no cucumber. The use of the sriracha sauce is one of the only redeeming factors. This roll is on par with the Daily Choice roll I had last week. But a dollar more. I, therefore, must continue my trek to find my new regular banh mi joint in the CBD. Update to come if I go back and get the pho!

I should preface this review by saying that it's based on both their rolls and salads. If I was…read morejust reviewing their salads it may be higher. I first went here when searching for an alternative to Bahn Mi. I got a roll and was underwhelmed. The roll itself was dry and the pork was quite fatty, the carrot and cucumber were somewhat scarce. The use of Sriracha sauce instead of fresh chilli was also a disappointment. I gave them the benefit of the doubt hoping that things would improve, to no avail. After not going here for a while I walked by a couple of months ago and was pleasantly surprised to see the quality of pork had improved. I gave them another go and got a salad this time. What an improvement. The lettuce, cucumber and carrot were so fresh, the pork was great and the addition of coriander and crushed peanuts were great. This standard is now consistently maintained. I am now a regular visitor and recommend their salads to my colleagues who are also impressed.
