I ate bhan mi and pho. Bhan mi was normal, and Pho was good. Both are reasonable price. Although I visited over 1 pm, still crowded

Bahn mi sandwich is so good! They make them fresh and it seems that they sell out for the day pretty quickly. Super quick and friendly service.

Service is always fast and friendly. I get the shrimp fresh rolls because they are my favorite. They are a quick fresh snack or light lunch that I grab atleast one time a week.

Mostly great Thai and Vietnamese place! It used to be my pre-finals ritual! Food is decent, only thing I would say is the spice level is a bit low for what you'd expect. But order it spicier thank you think and it will be good! Portion sizes are generous so a great place to stop if hungry. Sometimes it gets busy, so avoid peak hours! It's got a nice chill ambiance so a great place to enjoy the food!

The most budget-friendly and affordable restaurant I've been to in U District! The Bahn Ami was honestly a solid 3.5/5 stars and at $8 I really did not expect that. I think I'll be back to try other dishes because wow at this price and volume of food, it's pretty reasonable!

I had the chicken Phad See Ew ($13.00) and my friend got the chicken Phad Thai ($13.00), both were relatively tasty but didn't necessarily stand out to other Thai joints. It is a relatively quick walk from the University of Washington campus and a great place to have lunch. I'm very surprised with how cheap the food is for being a sit-down restaurant, so that is definitely a plus. The ambiance and environment of the restaurant were generally inviting and cozy. The service was fine, I enjoyed that they gave us time to keep to ourselves. Overall, if you're in the area and looking to try either some Vietnamese or Thai food for cheap, definitely visit, especially for a broke college student.

What happened to my previous. I appreciate this place. The food isn't the best, but it's pretty darn good and the prices are just right. The inside and their staff are along the same lines. You're not going to get the best of anything here and that's ok because great never gets in the way of an amazing bang for the buck Luckily they have plenty of room on the inside but don't expect to come here for a romantic date. I simple date yes. I love their large windows and how they are on the south side of the ave where parking is a slight bit easier to find. Slightly. lol. I don't have photos at the moment but I'll be sure to dig them up and post soon

Casual, quick, delicious. Came here with a friend around lunchtime the other day and were quickly sat, but the restaurant filled up to the brim and there was a line out the door by the time we left. It's popular, and for good reason! Food: Great portions and I love that they include rice with the noodle dishes. It seems like they have Thai/Vietnamese fusion food, and it's delicious. The Pad See Ew had a good amount of chicken and broccoli, and was balanced out with the fresh white rice. A lot of people in the restaurant were enjoying big bowls of pho, and they have banh mis for less than 10! I definitely want to go back and try some next time. Ambiance: Casual dining, standard Asian restaurant vibes. Cozy! Service: Quick and efficient, absolutely no complaints here. Overall, can't wait to come back. Delicious food and I want to try everything on the menu!
