You can choose your soup base, and then they have options for you to choose what vegetables and proteins you want. I love being able to customize my food and I love that you can come back to try different combinations. I got the pork shoyu broth, the cabbage and green onion veggie option, and grilled chicken. The grilled chicken was incredible, so flavorful and juicy and had a true grilled flavor. The noodles had a great texture, too. The broth however wasn't my favorite. I can't quite pin what I didn't like about it, but it had an odd after taste. I also like a jammy egg, but this one was a little too runny and the whites were a bit too jiggly for my liking. I'm curious what the miso broth is like and would return to try.

I dined in and noticed a lot of people walking in to pick up take out. I kept hearing the host tell them "see you soon" and one customer said "definitely! This is my favorite restaurant!" I quickly saw why. I went with the honey walnut shrimp dinner option. HUGE portion! It comes with either chicken fried rice or chowmein, cream cheese wonton, and a small soup (hot and sour or egg drop). I went with the chicken chowmein. It had good flavor and sauce but I did think it had more sprouts than noodles. The honey walnut shrimp was perfect. Not too much sauce and the perfect amount of walnuts. The chili salt and pepper wings were my favorite. Good size, golden fried, and the perfect seasoning. The sautéed jalapeños and red onion added more flavor to every bite. The host/waiter was very attentive and kept checking in with me to see if I needed anything and would tell me to take my time enjoying my meal. Definitely felt taken care of.

We switched up the order and got a couple new things but stuck with some faves- honey walnut shrimp, Mongolian beef, house combo special noodle with skinny noodles (WOAH), side of green beans (amaaaaazing) and salt and pepper wings. For the amount of food and quality, the price justifies. Plus it's always great service when we go in to pick up. Can't recommend enough!

I got the lechon and the lumpia. The lechon was crispy but I felt like the meat could have had a bit more flavor and adding the vinegar didn't really do it for me. For $25, I would love if it came with the garlic rice instead but he told me it would be an additional $5 to substitute that for the white rice. The garlic rice as a side is already $5... We also got the lumpia which was good in flavor and cripsy. It was $15. If I'm being picky, I would say that it could be wrapped up on the sides for the price. We usually don't fold in the sides when we make it when we're being quick/not wanting to put much effort into the dish and I get that for a food truck but the price is steep in my opinion. Anyway, we ordered around 11 am so the food came out within 5-8 minutes!

So a local food reviewer on IG recently did this thing online where he visited many local Banh Mi…read moreshops in Sacramento and of course he ranked them. Well he ranked this one very high, in fact it was his number one-so I had to check it out. The shop is located on Arden Way at a small little nondescript strip mall but they do have plenty of parking,so no issue there. Walking up to the shop they do have a few tables on an outside patio for customers to enjoy. Inside the shop it's very clean with a familiar color scheme-thinking In-N-Out/Five Guys.It's very nice in there. The two workers inside were very efficient, the cashier was overly friendly and welcoming and the other,the sandwich maker, was just quietly grinding out sandwiches the entire time-I appreciated that. They have pretty good menu options but I kind of just went traditional with my lunch order. I ordered a crispy pork banh mi.(10.95) I also ordered both the pork and shrimp spring rolls($4.00 x 2 )to try. It wasn't super busy during this lunchtime so I got my order pretty fast,probably under 12 minutes I would say. Let's talk about the food. I always tell people if I had a personal chef,I would have them make me spring rolls every day for my afternoon snack-I love them so much,so I had high hopes for these. The meat on the pork spring rolls was pretty hearty and kind of took over the spring roll but it was still pretty tasty. The shrimp spring rolls though were a standout, the natural taste of the shrimp along with the other fresh ingredients made the shrimp version stand out. I'm relatively new to the world of Banh Mi but in a very short time I feel like I'm all in and have tried more than a few places and definitely have my favorites,when it comes to bread selections and fillings,but I'm still figuring out my palate in the vast banh mi world. That being said-I really loved this banh mi. It was put together so well,pork was well seasoned and crispy,a nice amount of fresh,snappy,yummy veggies and the bread tasted very fresh. I won't say it's my favorite banh mi, because my number #1 spot is pretty locked up but I really enjoyed the sandwich here. This place is so close to my work,I can easily see it becoming my "Go-To" spot for banh mi. I 100% recommend this shop.

Never in my life have I ever paid this much for a bánh mì, especially at a spot located in the…read moreArden area!! This review is honestly hard to write because, mannn, the food was GREAT! It was packed with flavor, and I would definitely come back again! But the price of the sandwich? Absolutely ridiculous. Hey, by all means, as a business owner, you have every right to set your own prices. You know your worth, and I respect that! But if I had to choose between eating here or going to my regular spots, Đức Hương or Hương Lan, I'd choose them over this place simply because of the pricing. So why 4 out of 5 stars? 1. Pricing: The bánh mì is way more expensive than what I'm used to paying, especially when there are other great Vietnamese sandwich shops offering delicious food at a more reasonable price. 2. Food quality and flavor: I have to give credit where it's due! The food was genuinely delicious, and I can see what sets this place apart from other bánh mì shops. The flavor profile was unique, well-balanced, and definitely memorable. Overall, I enjoyed my meal and wouldn't mind coming back! I just wish the pricing was a little more reasonable. It's hard to justify paying that much for a bánh mì when I know I can get something just as satisfying elsewhere for less.

Being it was my first time there she helped me to order my food if I had missed a step. I love Vietnamese food and have been craving anything Lemongrass. Back home in Hawaii I'm use to ordering Lemongrass chicken, but no one here has that. So to fulfill my craving I ordered the Lemongrass Tri-tip Bahn Mi. It did not disappoint. Was so Onolicious lots of crunch to the bread, meat was tender and full of flavor, and the right amount of pickled carrots, daikon, along with cucumber and cilantro that I was making my friends wanting one as well. Their sugar Cane fruit drinks are so yummy as well. I ordered a B.O.G. Which was perfect for a hot day, just a tad bit sweet but nothing that I would complain about. I can't wait to go back and bring my daughter. I want to try everything they have before moving back home to Hawaii in a couple years. Thanks Budda Bowls for your onolicious food.

This was my first time visiting this location. I came in on 9/4/2026 in the afternoon during my…read morelunch break. Unfortunately, my first impression of the customer service wasn't the best. When I walked in, the cashier didn't seem very welcoming, and I let her know that it was my first time there. Since I wasn't familiar with how ordering worked, especially with the build your own vermicelli noodle bowl, I was hoping for a little guidance. Instead, she pointed at the menu and said, "It's here," followed by, "Which meat do you want?" and "What sauce?" When I asked which sauce she recommended with the bowl I chose, she responded, "OG Buddha is the usual sauce ." Her tone and demeanor came across as annoyed, so I didn't feel like I received the welcoming experience I had expected based on the reviews I had read. Initially, I ordered my food to go because I wasn't sure whether the dining area next door was part of the restaurant. Once I realized that it was, I asked if I could change my order to dine in because I wanted to experience the restaurant. She seemed annoyed by my request but told me she would let the other staff know. Afterward, I wasn't given an order number or told where to wait, so I sat on the bench near the ordering area. As I waited, I noticed the cashier interacting more warmly with some of the customers who came in after me. During one of those interactions, I overheard her mention that she was hungover and wasn't having a good day. I completely understand that everyone has difficult days, but I still believe customers should receive consistent service regardless. There also seemed to be some confusion between my order and another customer's order. Eventually, the cashier told me that I could sit in the dining area and that they would bring my food out when it was ready. I really wish this had been explained to me from the beginning, especially after I mentioned that it was my first visit. Once I sat down, my experience improved significantly. About five minutes later, another employee brought out my food, and she was very sweet and attentive. She asked if I needed anything else, and I requested a cup of water. She kindly went and got the water for me. I later realized that the drinks were self serve, which I hadn't known. I actually felt bad that she went out of her way to get it for me because I would have happily done it myself if I had known! She was incredibly kind about it, though, and I appreciated her service. The dining area itself was clean and interesting. It appears that two separate restaurants share one central dining space, almost like a Jack and Jill setup, with a restaurant on each side and the shared dining area in the middle. I do think the dining area could use some improvement when it comes to instructions for finished dishes. I couldn't find a designated station to return dirty plates, and it seemed like other customers were confused about this as well. Many of us didn't feel comfortable simply leaving our dishes on the table for the bussers to collect. I ended up following what another family did after they also looked unsure of where to put their dishes. They eventually placed theirs in one of the bins the bussers were using to collect dirty dishes, so I did the same. I also wish I had been told that to go containers and bags were available for leftovers. I ended up figuring that out on my own. Overall, I think a few signs or simple instructions explaining where to sit, how food is delivered, where to get water, where to return dishes, and where to find to go supplies would make the experience much easier for first time customers and probably easier for the staff as well. Now for the food: it was delicious! I was genuinely impressed by the quality, freshness, and texture of everything. The food was definitely the highlight of my visit and would absolutely make me want to return. Overall, the food was excellent, and the employee who served my meal was wonderful. I think clearer instructions for first time customers and more consistent customer service would make a huge difference. Unfortunately, my initial interaction with the cashier made my first visit feel uncomfortable and left me feeling a little out of place, but the quality of the food helped redeem the experience.
