    Spicy green curry veggie ham
    Stephanie C.

    They had tasty vegetarian options both the Spicy Green Curry Veggie Ham and Claypot Braised Veggie Fish tasted great! I like that it's not just tofu. However the portion size is a bit small for the price. $15 for a lunch for a small adult with no leftovers.

    I really liked the phin coffee here! It's a bit of a drive from Redmond but if you're in the area they have innovative drinks and safe ones and some really tasty looking banh mis. I only tried two of the phin drinks (the coco and cinnamon ones) and both were very tasty and strong. They are takeout only, so just keep that in mind. They were busy when I came, so be prepared for a bit of a line if you go during peak hours. I'd suggest going on a sunny day and walking around the block and seeing the vintage store afterwards. Service was friendly and prompt.

    Thai Thai Iced Tea

    Heard of this place while in the area, ordered the Thai iced tea, 2x ginger chicken banh mi's. This shop is a stand, it's very small and it is not dine in. There's benches outside thankfully. The staff were super nice and friendly. The best part surprisingly enough was their Thai Tea. The tea was so strong and not so sugary. The Banh Mi's were good but I do wish they had more veggies + sauce. The chicken had a very very strong ginger taste which was amazing. I only give it 4/5 for the parking situation. Had to pay $4 parking for 20 mins, due to being wary of the towing system in Seattle.

    The Iced Cinnamon Phin Latte with ice and non-dairy is my go-to! It's perfectly balanced, refreshing, and has just the right amount of cinnamon. Definitely a must-try!

    Soooo good! Had this saved in my maps for some time. Tried the pho latte and the original special sac bier sandwich.

    This place is quite a hole in the wall, and is located in the Georgetown neighborhood very close to Airport Way, which really gets busy in the morning and peak hours. There's no public restroom nor dedicated interior here; just several outdoor tables, and you order your stuff through their window. Menu mostly consists of both phin-dripped coffee and banh mi sandwiches of various kinds. One of my closest friends enjoys coming here every once in a while to enjoy both their coffee and banh mi. From a previous visit here around 2023 with friends, I do consider their banh mi sandwiches as one of the best in the Seattle area, and they need more recognition for it. This time I only got coffee for both me and my sis. Servers were really happy to tell me what's in each kind of coffee I asked about, their own recommendations, and how I wanted each coffee (hot/cold, whole/oat milk, etc.). They were also very accommodating when I wanted to suddenly switch from iced to hot coffee for both drinks since it was cold, wet and rainy outside. I got the pho spice latte for myself, and the da lat fog for my sis. Both drinks were really tasty and I enjoyed them: - In particular, the pho spice latte has some of the ingredients in regular pho broth like star anise and cinnamon, along with cardamom and fennel. It had such a strong citrusy fragrance when I was drinking it, and had that recognizable hint of pho broth. The espresso still stands out, and drink was perfectly balanced with the strong cinnamon. - My sis's da lat fog also had a strong cinnamon taste and aftertaste but without the stronger coffee caffeine. Oolong tea aroma is apparent, and the drink had a nice, sweet and vanilla taste to it. It's different from a London fog which has earl grey tea instead, so this one was a unique take on it. On a warmer day, I can see myself coming back for their banh mi sandwiches yet again, while having their coffee on the side as well. This is a place I'd put on my list to make sure family, friends and visitors have at least once!

    We grabbed two of the mini banh mi, one with ginger chicken and the other with sausage, plus a sweet condensed milk coffee. Everything tasted great, and while the "mini" really is snack-sized, it was fun to try a couple different flavors. The coffee was sweet, creamy, and refreshing, a good match for the food on a warm day. Service was quick and friendly, which made the whole stop feel easy and enjoyable. There isn't any seating set up, but we found a random café table and chairs around the corner to use while we ate. The area itself is interesting to walk around and explore while you wait, with trains and planes passing close by for a bit of extra character. It is casual and simple, but definitely worth a visit for a tasty banh mi and coffee break.

    My husband and I are in love with this place! I think we've visited this cafe about 5 times in the last few weeks. We've ordered/tried almost all of their drinks and have tried 4 of their sandwiches. My fave drinks are the read boat latte and the bac xiu. Their extra strong ca phe sua da is exactly what you need if you're sleep deprived or just need that extra extra boost! We loved all the sandwiches we've tried so far: ginger chicken, pork sausage patty, red curry shrimp, and cold cut special. The staff are always nice and friendly sly and open to suggestions. On weekends, I love how the tables are out so you can hang out a bit while eating your sandwich or just enjoying your drinks. We have a few more drinks and sandwiches to try so we'll be back soon!

    Simple and delicious. Service- storefront is essentially like a stand since you walk up and order at the door. Staff is very nice and efficient with taking the orders and keeping you in the loop on where they are at with orders. Ambiance- no seating to eat there so do expect that before going here. Food- if you want real strong Vietnamese coffee without all the bells and whistles, this is it. The sandwiches are simple yet flavorful.

    We came to sample the bahn mi that had been praised in the Seattle Times, and it did not disappoint, for the most part. The baguette was perfect in texture and flavor - not too soft or too crunchy. The sausage patty was nicely seasoned and the veggies were crisp. If there was a negative, I felt there was a lack of heat from the jalapeños (were they hiding in there at all, or so pickled to lose their spiciness?). Service was great and the space is super cute (walk-up only). I'd definitely go back when in the Georgetown neighborhood.

    I'll just start off with the food. I got the ginger chicken banh mi, and it was absolutely amazing. The chicken was tender, the bread was the perfect crunchy consistency, and the vegetables were marinated perfectly. The coffee is amazing. I got the coconut rum latte and it honestly was one of the best lattes I've had in a long time. No alcohol, but still intoxicating. (See what I did there) Customer service... Perfect as well. Very friendly and super patient as I stared at the menu trying to figure out what I want. They don't have pup cups, but if you go with your pup, they do have treats on deck. My pup and I will definitely be returning.

    - Flavor bomb pork sausage patty, it had lemongrass which balanced out the juicy, savory pork. - Bread was had that perfect crusty, crunchy exterior yet had a soft and airy interior. - Good balance of veggies - Love that you can get a mini sized sandwich if you wanted to - excellent orange coffee, using fresh citrus peels - not too sweet not too bitter - beautiful presentation

    Pork banh mi (mini size)

    Great hole in the wall spot for the best Vietnamese grab and go food. They have an extensive selection of banh mi sandwiches (pro tip - try a mini version so you can have tool to sample other items). I had the pork patty banh mi in the mini size along with a shrimp spring roll. The sandwich bread was perfect - crunchy on the outside, chewy within and the fillings were perfectly balanced and fresh. The spring roll was huge and super tasty as well. Next time I'll try one of their coffee drinks. Service was super friendly and quick. Be aware that food here is strictly for take out. I took mine to nearby Georgetown Brewery for a pairing with a chocolate stout. Happy tummy indeed.

On the other hand, some remarkably bizarre choices and inexplicably bad dishes leave you thoroughly confused. I'm a positive person (kind of), so let's start with the good. Their bahn tieu, or hollow bread, ranks up there as maybe the best bread-as-an-appetizer in the city. From the moment you cut it in half and feel the hiss of the steam escaping from the middle, you know it's going to be good. The outside is crispy, and the inside is so unbelievably fluffy it's wild. The honey coating on the bottom just adds that slightly sweet flavor that makes it even better, and the honey butter works perfectly to spread and let melt on the hot bread inside. For just $4, it's comes at an unbelievable price. We liked ours so much we ordered it again at the end. Following that same theme, the next thing we had, the toasted bahn mi, was also incredible. This is definitely not your typical bahn mi - as it comes in two mini triangle shaped pieces with a fried exterior. This outside has the perfect crunch and slight oiliness in its texture, and the inside of chicken liver parfait and pork floss just works so well. The nuoc cham also has essentially every flavor - sweet, salty, umami, spicy - it's the perfect dipping sauce. Ok, now let's talk about the truly incomprehensible. The rockfish fish and chips contains some of the worst fried fish I've ever had. The breading is beyond repair - it's practically soggy to the touch. When taking a bite out of the fish in your fish and chips feels like eating a bamboo shoot, you've completely lost the plot. I shudder to think about how this would appear when put next to some of the other fried fish I've had in Seattle. There's no seasoning, and to make matters worse, something just tastes very off about the inside. I don't even mean that's its overcooked, which it is, but there's just something weird going on that I can't quite put my finger on. Also, the tartar sauce might be the worst I've ever had. It's essentially just a pickled salad. There's no fat - no mayo or anything to provide something good to dip the fish into. It's just watery, liquidy, and functions atrociously at its job of being a dipping sauce. At least the fries were decent enough. If that wasn't everything - there's two more things that went wrong. The first one of these is just laughable. When we sat at our table and tried to order from the lounge menu, which is an all-day menu (not just happy hour), we were told that we couldn't be served the lounge menu at our current table, and had to be moved to the lounge area. And then - completely serious - we were proceeded to be moved like three seats over, now told we were in the lounge area, and allowed to order the lounge menu. It was so ridiculous both of us couldn't stop laughing for like five minutes. Even now I find it incredulous. The fact that there was some great firewall standing between the lounge and main dining area that prevented them from bringing a lounge plate one iota outside the allocated area is exceptionally funny. The second one is a bit more annoying. When we got our table, we were asked if we wanted still or sparkling water. I found this a bit odd - it reminded me of Europe - but I didn't think too much of it and asked for still, assuming that like essentially every restaurant in the US - the water would be complimentary. It was my absolute shock that we were charged 12 (twelve) American dollars for water. What!? In the land of the free? And the home of the brave? Really? Twelve dollars? Water? You know the kind where Seattle has some of the best tap water in the country, and you can literally just fill that up. Granted, it was probably partially our fault for not blocking the question entirely and asking for tap water from the start, but I assumed they asked between these two options to just determine the type of water we wanted. Overall, this has a couple of the highest highs, but the lows here are in the depths of hell. 5/10

    Cute small cafe that serves fantastic Vietnamese food and specializes in matcha drinks…read more The banh mi chao aka beef skillet was delicious. They don't serve that dish at a lot of places in Seattle so I was glad they had it at Soufend Cafe & Eatery. It came with diced beef, two eggs, Chinese sausages, cha lua, pate, laughing cow cheese, some veggies, and a toasted French baguette. Overall I liked the sauce but I do think it was slightly salty. My friend got the vegetarian bánh xèo and it was HUGE! Each one was almost long as her forearm lol. It also came with plenty of vegetables. They put a lot of coconut creme and tofu inside the bánh xèo. Matcha with banana cookie foam was ok. The matcha flavor is there but it's not as strong as other matchas I've tried. Overall, we had a good experience and will be back! Hopefully get to try their popular bánh uot tower. Customer service was friendly; interior was clean and modern. They have self-serve water in the corner for you. They have their own private lot so plenty of parking. They're located on MLK st across the OG Joy Palace plaza.

    Food is AMAZING! The food is made to order and tastes so good. The service is pretty quick and they…read moreget a bit busy at times. For the amount of people here, it's not too loud. Limited parking availability outside so that may be an issue if there's a lot of people around that strip.
