Banh Mi Station

"Brian Reinhart, Dallas Observer food critic, repeatedly visited this restaurant for takeout." - Amy McCarthy

"Bánh Mì Station, a new destination for Vietnam’s favorite sandwich, has officially opened its doors at Sylvan Thirty. The new sandwich shop occupies a 1,440 square foot, 'French-industrial' space that seats 50 diners at the West Dallas development, designed by Coeval Studio. Adjacent to the dining room, a small patio will provide additional seating, and it’s enclosed to ensure that people can eat their sandwiches outside regardless of what the weather looks like. As far as the food is concerned, bánh mì is (not surprisingly) the star of the show. Diners can stuff toasted baguettes with Vietnamese-style duck confit, coconut curry brisket, five-spice brisket, and more proteins, along with the traditional pickled vegetables, cilantro, and jalapenos. Vegan proteins, including buffalo 'un-chicken' and jackfruit 'crab cakes' are also on offer, along with red curry mac and cheese, french fries, and soft serve ice cream in flavors like Vietnamese iced coffee and matcha. Bánh Mì Station is now open at Sylvan Thirty from 10:45 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sunday and Monday and 10:45 a.m. to 9 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday." - Amy McCarthy
