    B5 - Pate and Pork Roll
    Alex L.

    A really cute bakery in Gainesville with a wide selection of Banh Mi, baked goods, deserts, teas/coffees as well as Vietnamese snacks. I got the B5 and thought it was delicious. Good value, generous serving and it came quick. The baguette was warm and soft on the inside but toasty and crispy crust (but not too crispy, where it leaves your mouth chapped!). The filling was a littler sweeter than what I'm used to, but tasty nonetheless. I got the sea salt coffee at the recommendation of the owner, which was also tasty. Got my caffeine kick in a sweet, thick, creamy form (don't worry, it doesn't taste salty). The drinks here were pretty large.

    Tons of choices!

    This would be a spot I could live at if I lived anywhere near UF! Located directly across from the campus in the bottom floor of an apartment complex, this place was a jewel to find. My kids were excited just to see a boba tea spot so close to our hotel. We walk in, & I am doubly excited to see all the Vietnamese flavors offered in the convenient style ala hoagie shop. They offer counters full of Asian snacks and some local pastries along side a pork bánh mi! Service was very friendly. Bathrooms and cafe are clean, spacious, and bright. We only ordered boba teas this time, and they were beautifully made and delicious! Only wish there was a way to be little more earth friendly with these drinks! The cups are really high quality here, so I wish we could reuse these. We bring our own straws to save the turtles, but surely we can do more.

    We came in on a rainy day and no one else was here besides us. Since it was our first time dining here, we ordered through the self ordering kiosk to better see the images of the items we want. I ordered a beef pho (~$14) and requested extra meat for an upcharge (~$2.5). I also ordered Paris milk tea special with boba. We got the food at a reasonable amonut of time. However eventhough I asked for extra meat still it felt like there isn't enogh meat even for a regular order. Since it was my first time here I wasn't sure if that's how much they serve in each portion. Besides that both pho and the drink were delicious and I really enjoyed the flavors. We came in after a month and this time ordered a pate bahn mi and a Ramen. The orderd was delayed and we got the ramen first then after 15 minutes got the Ramen. We'd rather have both of them at the same time to eat together. They were both delicious but Ramen had much smaller portion compared to their Pho. So if you are really humgry pho might be a better option. We came in for the third time, again ordered pho and bahn mi. Again the order was delayed and came at a different time. So one us was eating and the other one watching! This time I didn't ask for extra meat but somehow I got more meat that the first time I asked for it. Also the vahn mi didnt taste as fresh as last time. The pate was alittle bit stinky. While I like this restaurant a lot but the lack of consistency and order management makes me give them 3 stars.

    Nice and roomy seating indoors.

    After many weeks of hearing great things about this place, I KNEW I had to come visit another great Vietnamese restaurant! I've visited two times already before this review, and both visits were amazing! Right off the bat, the interior was bright and roomy. We didn't have to wait long at all, as the food and drinks came out super fast. Both times, I got the usual -- the Bánh Mì Thịt Nướng (grilled pork) and a Peach Black Tea with boba! The sandwich was so yummy, and the meat was juicy and warm while the baguette was perfectly crispy and light. The tea was super refreshing and paired along quite nicely with the sandwich! Overall a great experience and I cannot wait to make many more visits to this place!

    Great and friendly service. Surprised they've only been open a year considering. I had the munchies and stopped by with my bf . I tried the potato dog and the red velvet cheesecake. The cheesecake was creamy and moist , a little dense. The Korean corn dog was amazing and came out hot. They give you what seems to be a half sweet sour half sriracha Mayo sauce. The potatoes on it were perfectly crunchy and I was scared that the potatoes would be too crunchy considering how tiny they are on the dog but they fried it perfectly . The place is on university ave which I don't pass often but would just to try their Banh mi next time.

    Paris Banh Mi will always have a special place in my heart. I was very happy to see that Gainesville had a location since the one in my previous town closed. Paris Banh Mi is located in the heart of downtown near UF and parking is a pain but for their Banh Mi? Totally worth the hassle. Parking at Publix is your best bet. My go to here is always the grilled pork banh mi, extra mayo, extra soy sauce, extra sour veggies, extra cilantro. The pork is so flavorful and they are not selfish with the servings. The bread is warm, the sour veggies adds a nice texture, and that mayo? It's amazing. Their boba tea is also very delicious and this location has hot dogs! I tried the half potato and half mozzarella and it was bit dry. Next time I'll add sauce on it but the concept is dope and it's very crunchy. I have never been to a Paris Banh Mi where the owners and staff isn't kind. This location was no different. I highly recommend this place.

    First time trying this restaurant and it did not disappoint! I ordered the grilled pork Banh Mi and it was pretty big, and super filling. I ordered the mango slush with boba, but the drink separated pretty quickly so I'd recommend just getting milk tea. The sandwich was delicious and I would definitely come here again!!

    I decided to try Paris Banh Mi today, and I was incredibly pleased. The customer service was great, with friendly staff members to greet you. The options seem plentiful from Vietnamese sandwiches, burgers, Boba tea, bakery items, and dessert. The prices are also very reasonable as well. I decided to order the Pate Steamed Pork (Banh Mi Pate Thit Do). I was incredibly satisfied with the portion size, and taste of the sandwich. The ingredients tasted very fresh, and the flavor was incredibly rich. In terms of price point, the price was comparable to Publix subs. I would hands down prefer to order another sandwich from here! I went during intersession, so the restaurant was empty. I also know that it recently opened. I hope to see more people try out Paris Banh Mi. You can't go wrong here. The food seems to be of great quality, and the prices are very reasonable. There a couple of Vietnamese Pho restaurants within a 10 minute radius, however, Paris Banh Mi fills a void through offering sandwiches and bakery options which campus has been lacking. I'd strongly recommend checking out Paris Banh, and will definitely be back.

    bakery area!

    I ordered the grilled chicken banh mi and was thoroughly satisfied. The banh mi was at least 8-9 inches long, I only wish there was a little more pickled radish & carrots. Other than that, I was super happy that the banh mi was made hot and fresh, and the chicken was juicy and well seasoned :)

    Tea menu - so many options- prices are for cash, there is a small % extra if you pay by card.

    Fairly new and welcome spot under The Standard apts. Cute spot with amazing looking pastries, interesting snacks, various grab and go bread options along with their food and drink menu. Both the banh mi and grilled pork were delicious in very different ways. Not usually a huge banh mi fan but this one has made me a fan. The croissant was warm and buttery while the pork was flavorful and filling. The drinks were refreshing in this hot summer weather. Staff is very helpful with suggestions if you aren't sure what you want. Menu board prices are for cash, there is a small % extra if you pay by card. Can't wait to go back and try the desserts.

The staff member was super nice when I walked and immediately welcoming and friendly. I went with the brown sugar milk tea with boba and upgraded to almond milk for my milk choice. The upgrade is $1 surcharge however he was super nice and gave the upgrade on the house. The boba shop is pretty small and has a claw game inside. The prices are pretty reasonable and he informed his favorite boba was a seasonal one, the hami melon boba tea which sounded good and will try soon! This boba tea was surprisingly not super sweet at all. It was very creamy and delicious. It had a subtle hint of brown sugar and the boba tasted like it soaked up the brown sugar flavoring. I highly recommend this drink. However, be mindful of trying to get to this place if you're a local as it's that time of the year (aka football season).

Lastly, this was likely a fluke, but the cold foam on one of my visits was very chunky- straight cream cheese- which was an off putting quality control error. But overall, its not a bad spot, just not the best in town. Good if you want a really specific flavor though.

I was so looking forward to trying it with the pork belly meat but thought the flavors were a bit muted when compared to other similar dishes we tried elsewhere. The portions were quite generous so we took home leftovers for later meals. Oddly enough, we both thought our meals were tastier the day after! Lunch for 2 came out to just under $57 with tip. Oh yeah, we never did lay eyes on those bisons nor wild horses. Other hikers informed us we'll have better luck if we come back between January and March, when a lot of the tall vegetation would've died off from the winter cold. We did see a couple of gators sunning along the banks of the Alachua Sink at the end of La Chua Trail.
