"Where's the pork?"
Robert C.

Return or not return? Maybe. Had to try based on reading reviews. Why 3 stars? - Bland sandwich, bland salad roll, coffee is ok (though "thin"). That said, staff are polite, friendly. Salad roll ratio of meat vs other way off. See picture. Bahn mi ordered both honey garlic and lemongrass. Just too bland (and forgot jalapeños in one of them) Prices a tad on the higher side, and no issues paying but walked away with a lot of blah and not memorable.

Cold Cut Deluxe + Lemongrass Chicken Banh Mi
Angela C.

Obanhmi is a small shop located on Kingsway and it remains my absolute favourite spot to get delicious banh mi! * Deluxe Cold Cut (7.5) Their Deluxe Cold Cut is filled with savory pâté, mayo, jambon, Vietnamese ham, and seasoned extra-lean pork belly. The cold pickled veggies and jalapeños added a refreshing contrast! * Lemongrass Chicken (6.75) The Lemongrass Chicken banh mi is beautifully marinated with lemongrass, red curry and Asian sweet chili sauce! I loved it with an extra drizzle of sriracha! The bread is also always crunchy on the outside with a soft and fluffy interior. If you check them out, don't forget to take advantage of their 15% off for online orders!

Find the chicken

Worst food I've had in Vancouver in over 3 years I've lived in this city... ordered lemongrass banh mi sandwich and paid $2 extra for avocado... well, there was barely any chicken in there and one slice of avocado in the entire sandwich... the chicken was boiled and not lemongrass as advertised... what a disgrace

Deluxe cold cut banh mi
Kit Yee Y.

I ordered a deluxe cold cut banh mi through DoorDash. I received an email and text confirmation quickly that the restaurant received my order. It was quite fast. When I got to the restaurant and picked up my food in 15 mins or so, the banh mi was ready for pickup. The restaurant was quite efficient. It was my first time to try the banh mi here. The deluxe cold cut banh mi tasted delicious. The bun was crispy outside and soft inside. There was a lot of ingredients as well. It was great to eat it fresh!! It was big enough for me that I had to save some for the next day haha I would recommend this banh mi restaurant to others. I know there is competition in the neighborhood but in terms of quality and quantity this one is QUITE GOOD!! I had some banh mi elsewhere. The bun was big and had less ingredients or it was cheaper elsewhere but the quality was not good.

I've ordered here 3 times already and have tried the classic cold cut and the deluxe cold cut. The deluxe is worth the extra few $ and has more meat. Solid bahn mi's with excellent Vietnamese coffee. One of the three times, the bread wasn't as good, but still a a delicious. Not a fan of the salad rolls, but not a dealbreaker for me. I'll be back for more.

Sides and drink menu, August 2021

I think I may have found my new favorite banh mi place!! We ordered a variety of items and the ones I liked are: * the bottled Vietnamese iced coffee - strong and not too sweet! There is a label that indicate it's freshly brewed daily. I personally like the bottled version more because they'd put ice cubes in the cup version and I hate how it waters down my coffee. This was delicious! * deluxe cold cut - why I said this is my new fav place for banh mi. The sandwich was packed with deli meat!! Like, I'd bite into it and I'd get a mouthful. The other places didn't provide such a satisfaction. The deluxe differs from the classic in that it has the classic plus some lean pork deli. * garlic pork salad roll - this one was a nice alternative to the typical shrimp salad roll. It was delicious as I'm normally not a fan of the shrimp roll. Now, onto the items I didn't like as much: 1) the nem fries, which was minced garlic pork wrapped in wonton wrappers and deep fried. The filling wasn't much so I was mostly eating deep fried wonton wrapper. I'd recommend the garlic pork roll if you wanted to get sides. 2) sate beef banh mi - I didn't get that mouthful sensation as I did with the deluxe. It was also spicy and I'm personally not a fan of sate beef. Tips: Order online for pickup and get 15% off. Order banh mi and coffee together and get $1 off.

You gotta try the new Peach iced tea! Made with real tea and real peach fruits at the bottom. Authenticated with a strip of lemongrass. Mint leaf adds a soothing touch. On a hot summer day, it sure hit the spot $1 off when ordered with a banhmi

avocado and coconut smoothies

If you are looking for a sandwich that offers flavour, complexity, value, and satisfaction, Obanhmi really ticks all the boxes. The aromatic and rich fillings, bolstered by Southeast Asian and Vietnamese umami-infused seasonings, complemented by the all-so-important pickled garnishes, and herbs/chilies if you desire, all encased in warm, crispy baguette. Nothing is out-of-context, everything plays a vital role to create the perfect bite. Sate Beef - intense, rich, sweet and spicy sate marinade is the perfect counterpart to rich AAA beef strips. Lemongrass Chicken- if you love the aromatic and citrusy intensity of lemongrass, you will surely enjoy this delicate sandwich. These robust flavours inter-mingling with each other creates a super tasty yet light sandwich. Deluxe Cold Cut - can never say no to pork belly, especially when it is as large as this. Beautiful, absolutely standout colors. The buttery, sweet, flavours coating your tongue with each bite, the ultimate PORK sandwich. Vietnamese Xiu Mai -this is the essence of an umami-bomb. Intense meat and a hint of seafood aroma, reminding me of the classic dim sum but still very original, gentle and soft mince with excellent texture, deeply savoury, our favourite one of all. Last by not least, chase everything down with their smooth and velvetly intense cold coffee, the perfect finish to a great meal. If you are not into coffee, their avocado or coconut smoothies are a blast, very refreshing and flavours are very clean. This is definitely a must try restaurant! You can also get 15% off if you order through their website!

sate beef banh mi
Isabel C.

I had the pleasure to try Obanhmi thanks to a friend's recommendation as she had done an Instagram collaboration with them. She had mentioned that this place had great banh mi's with a fantastic price point and quality. I ordered a meal with sate beef banh mi and pork spring roll while my boyfriend ordered the honey garlic chicken banh mi meal. Both came with drinks on the side and each meal was estimated between $14-$16 depending on the drink we got. The shop had just been renovated with a clean white and red interior. I really liked the cute newspaper with Vietnamese culture as wallpaper! Taste wise - the pork spring rolls looked simple but they actually tasted great! The filling really reminded me of my dad's spring rolls...lots of meat and vermicelli. My banh mi was nicely sized with a decent amount of meat and veggies, the beef was well flavoured and had a nice aroma. For the honey garlic, my boyfriend and I did both find it a bit dry...We wished there would be more sauce in the banh mi (or more vegetable filling). The shop also features adorable multi-colour drinks. I didn't try any as I ordered an ice coffee (which hit the perfect spot for me btw) but my party all gave high praise to the tasty and unique drinks. Overall, I enjoyed Obanhmi and would definitely come again if I were in the area!

I have been wanting to try the Banh mi here since my friend told me it serves halal Banh mi. Only 1 is halal and that is the lemongrass chicken. I am not sure if you need to specify you want the halal version. We had the lemongrass chicken and classic cold cut. I much prefer the classic cold cut. Very tasty. I wish they added sriracha and hoisin sauce on it too. Maybe I need to ask? The iced Vietnamese coffee is good, strong and flavorful. The pork spring rolls were average, not something I will get again. There are meal combos which include the spring roll and water or pop. Add $3 for iced coffee. If you do not want the spring roll, just get the coffee as it is a dollar off with a Banh mi purchase. There is also a 15% discount for online order for pick up. We didn't do that as it seemed like a hassle. There is also a loyalty program where you get a free sandwich with 10 points (1 point for each sandwich). You can also purchase chicken broth, frozen meat and meatball to make your own pho at home. Dessert and bottled Vietnamese coffee are also in the chiller for purchase. Limited seating for dine in due to covid. Nice clean space though. Street parking is available on kingsway and side streets.

Decent banh mi (Vietamese sandwich) place along Kingsway. Parking is free in front outside of the afternoon rush hour. The inside looks a bit like a modern hipster coffee shop. Technically this isn't too misleading as they do serve (authentic) Vietnamese coffee after all. I tried both the #1 (Lemongrass chicken) and #8 (Classic cold cut) sandwiches. Both are tasty, but a wee bit more expensive than the competition. Both were also not as spicy as I was expected. Might want to mention this to the staff if spicy is your thing. The spring rolls here are rather mediocre. They're rather thin (almost like hot dog wieners) and weren't anything special. I would skip these. Wouldn't mind coming back, but there are quite a few other options in the area.

I loved the packaging and the taste of their Banmi Vietnamese subs. They are well done and at a fair price . Subs are good portions too so no complaints A dedicated Banh mi place at good prices is just what Richmond needed !

deluxe cold cut
Cristalle L.

I ordered the sate beef, deluxe cold cut, and nem fries for delivery through Doordash. The cold cut was sooo yummy! I've never tried cold cut banh mis before and I have definitely been missing out! I almost want to say I like it better than the sate beef. The one issue with our order is the nem fries were forgotten when it was packed and we didn't get to try it :( Luckily Doordash refunded the fries and I'll try again another time.

Cali girl here *wave* I tried a bunch of different places but couldn't really say any was a favorite. I finally asked my nail tech what her favorite place was and she recommended Pho 37 and she was not wrong. Then I remembered that my nail tech will never leave me astray. I only had to try their pho once to know, THIS IS IT. Then I had to get their Bun Bo Hue, just tomake sure. The triple crown will be their Banh Mi, which I'm excited to try next but so far 5 stars all the way. Best Pho broth and the best Bun Bo Hue that I've found so far in the downtown Vancouver area. I'm sure as you fan outside of the city limits that there are just as good options but I've finally found my go to spot close to work and home after 3 months of living here. A plus plus is the huge portions but I also have to commend the meat to noodle ratio is just perfect. This is a cute little spot on Robson. Don't sleep on this one, ladies and gents. Dine in or dining out, don't forget to ask for the chilli garlic oil and garlic vinegar on the side. These condiments will level up any dish!

I stopped in around 5:30 p.m. on a Sunday, and nearly every table was full. Even with the crowd, I…read morewas seated right away. The only small issue was that it took a little while before someone came to take my order, and I eventually had to wave someone over. It wasn't a big deal, though, especially considering how busy they were. The portions here are huge, especially for the price. The broth was a little sweeter than I personally prefer, but it was very clean, clear, and flavorful. This is what I look for in a good bowl of pho. The noodles were cooked perfectly and had a nice soft texture. I ordered a combination bowl. My only suggestion would be a bit more of tripe and tendon. The tripe was a little sparse, and I honestly didn't realize I had tendon until I was almost finished with the bowl. But I like those, and not a lot of people do. Despite the restaurant being packed, the staff was stayed attentive, kept food coming out quickly, and did a great job taking care of everyone. The atmosphere was casual and welcoming. There was a nice mix of people. Some quietly watching videos on their phones, others catching up over conversation. It felt like the kind of neighborhood spot that attracts everyone. Overall, this is a convenient, affordable place with good pho and generous portions. If I'm in the area again, I'd definitely come back. .

Went in for lunch with my granddaughter, both of us fans of Vietnamese food. Ordered Green Papaya Salad ($12), Lemongrass Chicken on Vermicelli with one spring roll ($17), one lime soda ($6.50) and one pop ($3). Food arrived within minutes of ordering. Portions were very generous. The salad was perfect with everything very fresh, as it should be but often isn't in some places. Plump prawns and the scent and taste of basil was prominent. Delicious! The lemongrass chicken (we ordered extra chicken) with a spring roll was also very generous. We did not finish it between the two of us. Again, all was fresh, tasty and hot. This is one of our standard orders and Pho Goodness did not disappoint. Granddaughter declared it better than at our regular favourite, and Pho Goodness is around the corner from her home and not a bus ride out to Kingsway! Service was friendly and responsive. We asked that the volume be turned off on the massive TV over our heads (which nobody was watching) (it was), requested a glass for the pop and immediately received a tumbler full of ice. Lovely. We have found a new favourite on Davie Street, a true foodie heaven with a collection of independent restaurants of many ethnicities available. We will return to Pho Goodness when the urge for Vietnamese food strikes again.

My wife and I were hoping to go to a popular sushi place nearby, but the wait was too long. Given…read moreit was sort of chilly that day, we decided to get a warm bowl of pho. I've been the Pho Goodness on Main Street before, and generally like the food (maybe not the service), so we decided to this one a try. This location is marginally nicer looking at first glance, but the customer tables look just as worn and used as the Main St location. We ordered the #20 Pho Dac Biet and Banh Xep Chien dumplings. The Pho is pretty good. Good portion size, and the soup has flavour. The dumpling were ok. I like the meat filling, which was plump and fresh, but thought they used the cheapest option for a wrapper. Service is very minimal. Efficient, but don't expect any smiles or small chat. There was a long wait time between the pho, which was served in less than 2 min, and the dumpling which probably came 15 min later. Overall, it was fine. Hit the spot. Solid 3.5, but rounding down because the big gap between getting the pho and the dumplings.

To begin, I'm a chef specializing in Asian cuisine, so I know what I'm talking about!…read more Last night we went to Hestia and ordered three items. The Garden Rolls were absolutely the #1 worst ones we've ever eaten! We've had hundreds of fresh rolls at dozens of places and sadly, none were as tasteless as these. They consisted of noodles, a bit of flavorless tofu and cucumber. Fresh rolls MUST have at least one or more of the following: fresh mint, fresh cilantro or fresh Thai Basil. Hestia's had NONE!. To add insult to injury, the watery sauce also had NO flavor. To add more insult, they were baggy and poorly wrapped and the innards kept falling out. Not fun and definitely not good. The king oyster mushrooms were very good, but there was a ton of pink mayo dousing it. I would have preferred the sauce be in a separate bowl so we could choose how much dipping we'd like to do. The saffron tofu bowl was sensational! Perfectly spiced and full of a huge variety of well-cooked veggies plus the saffron rice was good too. No one came during our meal to ask if we needed anything or to ask how our meal was. The customer service is in need of some work.

On a rain-soaked Vancouver night, just before wandering into the soft glow of the annual Lumiere…read moreFestival, we slipped into Hestia Veggie for warmth and a little shelter from the pitter-patter outside. The rain had settled into that familiar Vancouver rhythm, steady and soft, turning the streets into mirrors beneath the city lights. Inside, everything felt worlds away. Gentle lighting washed over the clean, calm interior, and for a moment, the noise of the wet evening seemed to fall away. It was the kind of quiet exhale you only notice after stepping out of the cold. The curry laksa arrived first, a vibrant bowl of yellow curry filled with broccoli, cauliflower, bok choy, vegan shrimp, kale noodles, mushrooms, and coconut milk. Against the grey evening outside, its golden broth looked almost sunlit. It was a dish that seemed perfectly suited to the night, the kind of steaming bowl you imagine wrapping your hands around while rain taps against the windows. The broth was a little watery, but it still carried that small, familiar embrace you reach for on a wet night. The laksa is a dish so many seem to praise, and at first glance, it was easy to understand why. The bright curry, generous vegetables, and colourful ingredients made it look hopeful and inviting. But as we worked our way through the bowl, the balance began to feel a little off. There was considerably more soup than noodles, leaving the dish feeling lighter than expected. The broccoli and cauliflower also had that unmistakable frozen texture, which took away some of the freshness I was hoping for. It wasn't bad, but it felt muted. Like a song that should have been louder, this was a laksa that seemed to have lost a little of its spark somewhere between the kitchen and the table. Then came the smoked eggplant, and suddenly the evening took a more interesting turn. An entire eggplant arrived at the table, beautifully tender and deeply smoky, almost reminiscent of the aroma of a prized cigar. It was topped with Impossible meat, peanuts, salino, and dried shallot, creating a mixture of textures that made every bite feel a little different. The eggplant practically collapsed beneath the fork, its smoky flesh contrasting with the savoury meat and the little bursts of crunch from the peanuts and shallot. The menu mentioned a pineapple sauce, although if it was there, it had quietly disappeared into the background. I couldn't really find it beneath the other flavours. Even so, the eggplant itself had enough character to hold my attention. And then, almost as if the restaurant wanted to remind us exactly why we had come, the Hestia Saffron Curry arrived. This was the moment everything came together. Thick, fragrant, and unapologetically flavourful, the curry carried the kind of warmth that seems to travel beyond the bowl. The saffron shavings melted into the sauce, leaving behind a rich golden colour and an aroma that immediately drew us closer. Beside it sat a little pot of sticky rice, almost ceremonial in its presentation, waiting to be folded into the curry. The sauce clung beautifully to the rice, rich without feeling overwhelming, and each bite brought another layer of fragrance and warmth. There was something deeply comforting about it, the sort of food that doesn't simply fill you up but makes you slow down for a moment. Of everything we ordered that evening, this was easily the standout. Even the space itself seemed to understand the mood. The lighting was thoughtful and warm, the service was friendly, and the menu was broad enough to make you curious about what might be waiting on a future visit. As someone who isn't vegan, I don't often leave a plant-based meal feeling genuinely, completely satisfied. This time, I did. Not just full, but warm in that particular way a good meal can make you feel on a cold night. Eventually, we stepped back outside into the Vancouver rain. The pavement shimmered beneath the festival lights, umbrellas drifted past like dark little sails, and the glow of Lumiere waited somewhere ahead. The cold returned almost immediately, but the warmth of dinner lingered. Walking toward the lights, I found myself thinking less about the dishes that missed the mark and more about that saffron curry, the smoky eggplant, and the feeling of having found a little pocket of warmth on a wet Vancouver evening. Sometimes, that's exactly what you hope a restaurant will give you.

We also got an order of salad rolls ($7.50 plus tax), which comes with 2 rolls. The rolls came quite late. They were pretty standard, coming with fried tofu, vermicelli, and lettuce. The peanut dipping sauce was on the liquidy, salty soy sauce side of things -- I wish it were creamier and less salty. 3/5 The soups were decent. The broth was peppery, with some nice, gentle spices detectable in there. I asked for a side of chili oil, which helped amplify the broth. You get a generous portion of noodles, fried tofu, and vegetables (broccoli, bok choy, carrot). Unfortunately the veggies were quite overcooked -- the broccoli was almost soggy, so were the carrots and bok choy. 3/5 All in all, middle-of-the-road veggie pho. The broth is pleasant. The veggies were overcooked, but plentiful and nicely chosen. Decent place for veggie pho.
