Bo&Beurre

Hands down the best banh mi in the CITY. I really dont leave reviews often but I am STUNNED. The lemongrass beef and the curry chicken was so so good, followed by the combo. Meat is so juicy and there’s something about the fully stuffed and whole sandwich that make it so hearty. Very good price for the taste. They cook the vermicelli noodles right as you order it for the spring roll and everything is fresh. The owner (?) is a younger guy that is super friendly and down to earth. I went here yesterday and had it for dinner and for today’s breakfast. I had to go back and get it again for lunch. This place ought to be known by everyone.

If you’re wondering how this spot has a 5.0 rating, make the journey and you’ll find out immediately. The quality of the meat used here is head and shoulders above their competitors. They accept credit card / Apple Pay, and are open to 9pm. But beyond the positives of the convenience, is the quality of the product. I was wondering how I had overlooked this spot, but to open a banh mi shop in little Saigon next door to some of the big hitters you gotta be doing something right, and after one bite I instantly knew that they were. Had the chance to meet Danny who is a Bay Area native, from the TL. He is incredibly passionate, dedicated and makes every sandwich perfectly. From the bread used, the freshness of the veggies, the well marinated meats, down to the careful attention of where each ingredient is placed in the sandwich, everything is intentional, and well thought out. They got a wide range of mroe unique meats to try, as well as rotating Vietnamese specials on the weekends. This is a quality over quantity spot (ie the slightly higher price point is justified by the ingredients used). This is up there in the best banh mis I’ve ever had. I can say with confidence you will not regret making the journey to the TL to come here, and after one bite you will soon have a new favorite sandwich. I can’t wait to try the other meats, but so far the lemongrass beef has been insanely flavorful. Keep up the great work, I will be returning regularly to support this real neighborhood gem, and enjoying the best banh mi in sf.

Super delish banh mi, amazing price, very friendly family serving you crisp banh mi. I tried the tofu & it’s rly well made (crisp on the outside, soft on the inside). Killer hoisin based sauce too. I recommend asking for extra fish sauce in it, if you’re not vegan!

Nice beef sandwich here. Beef is nicely flavored and there is plenty of fresh veggies. Sauce is very rich and delicious. Bread was crisp but didn’t tear the top of my mouth. Service was friendly.

Great service!!! Definitely try out their combination banh mi especially! Especially if you’re an on the go type like me this is a great spot for lunch. There is not too much wait time, and the food is really healthy and very good quality! Very decent prices as well given the current economy! You won’t have to spend a king’s ransom to eat like one here.

A small mom & son shop in the heart of the Tenderloin district out here tryna make it!!! Let's talk Noodles- This place makes the best coconut noodles with shredded pork, make it a combo and add fresh sizzling stir-fry steak, you can pretty much only get this type of dish in the San Jose area and it would not even guarantee the quality and delicious taste that Bo & Beurre can offer. The sweet coconut gliding along the slippery noodles with steak and shredded pork, just the right amount of salty umami taste with pickled veggies, fresh cucumber and bean sprouts make for the perfect combo bite, a taste of Vietnam at your fingertips. Banh-mi- I've pretty much eaten every sandwich here but my favorite is combination, I mean how can you not love a combo? No need for any details but if u have or haven't tried a banh mi in your life time GET ONE HERE!!! The steak banh mi is a SPECIALTY, you can't really get one like this at any other banh mi shop because here they stir fry the steak per order so yah ain't gettin no pre-made nothing, everything fresh, sizzling and HOT!

Small banh mi spot in the city and fantastic sandwiches! Really well cooked meat and perfect bread. I have tasted the curry chicken, roast chicken, roast pork and tofu rolls and I have absolutely nothing negative to say about them. I think this might become my go to banh mi spot in the city.

In the heart of San Francisco Bo&Beurre a true traditional Vietnamese sandwiches shop serving up the best bun mee. Located Half a block away from Saigon sandwiches a block away from Brenda’s soul food and is on the same block as Son&Garden Thai restaurant

Bánh Tằm Bì. That's all. The end! J/k! It's not a review unless I'm hitting 5000 max characters and putting peeps to sleep. Bo&Beurre ("beef" in Viet & "butter" in French) opened in August 2024 in a corridor with heavy hitters like Saigon Sandwich and L&G Vietnamese Sandwich but this newcomer is offering a rare, off-the-menu item: Bánh Tằm Bì. A Southern Viet dish of thicccc rice/tapioca noodles in coconut milk + nước chấm (fish sauce) topped w/ shredded pork skin, herbs, and pickled veggies. Based on my search, I believe Bo&Beurre may be the first and only place to bring this dish to the bay (apparently, it's not even available in SoCal). Bo&Beurre is currently open for takeout and limited indoor dining. No outdoor dining. M E N U Array of bánh mì with some housemade meats ($8-$11), gỏi cuốn (spring rolls), and off-the-menu specials: bò kho (beef stew), bún riêu (crab noodle soup), and/or bánh tằm bì (thick noodles in coconut cream sauce). NOTE: For off-the-menu specials, they're not available everyday. Check their IG or send a DM to inquire about availability. There's bottled drinks in the cold case. Iced coffee (cà phê sữa đá), iced thai tea, and spritzers are available off the menu. Free bottled water or soda with a purchase of a bánh mì. CC's and Apple Pay accepted. F O O D * Bánh Tằm Bì: Thick noodles w/ coconut cream sauce, shredded pork skin ($11) - Before mixing: https://tinyurl.com/bdef6una - After mixing: https://tinyurl.com/4h3xmxjj Channeling summer, this is a great cold noodle dish with a medley of flavors and textures. The chewy, bouncy noodles were a nice contrast to the gelatinous pork skin, crisp cucumbers + carrots, refreshing mint + cilantro, and crunchy peanuts + shallots. The coconut sauce is deliciously creamy, sweet, and coconutty balanced by the nước chấm and chili sauce, giving some funk, tang, and heat. The latter is served on the side to doctor up the bánh tằm bì to your liking. The flavor was so unique and addictive...and the leftovers held up well. * Bánh Mì Dặc Biệt: Combo Viet Sandwich ($10): https://tinyurl.com/3m3csyap -Add extra pâté Good ratio of fillings to carbs, the toasted baguette was crunchy and soft with a light flaky crumb (doesn't cut the roof of your mouth) with layers of ham, chả (pork loaf), housemade pork belly, housemade chinese bbq pork, smear of mayo, light smear of rich pâté, punchy pickled veggies, cool cucumbers, cilantro and jalapeno slices (not spicy). The warm fatty bits from the pork belly made it extra tasty. I think they forgot the extra pâté but it's fine (wasn't charged for it). To nitpick, the pickled veggies could have been better distributed so you get acid in each bite. Otherwise, the bánh mì was solid and well-balanced, hitting all the quintessential notes of salty, savory, tangy, sweet, spicy, and umami. If I had to compare it to the other two bánh mì neighboring competitors...they're all different so it depends on your preferences. Using the dặc biệt for comparison basis: Bo&Beurre is the priciest but crafted with housemade meats. Saigon Sandwich is the best value, fully loaded but not traditional with its hard + dense "baguette" and sauciness. L&G is traditional with a light, crackly baguette but with cold cuts only, no chinese bbq pork or pork belly. You can always do a bánh mì crawl to see which one is your fav. S E R V I C E Danny, the owner (?) was very kind. Polite, hardworking aunties (speak little english). I was the only customer at the time so food was ready in 5 minutes. A M B I A N C E Small hole-in-the-wall shop with two café tables. Yes, it's in the TL but this part of Little Saigon is not that bad since it's near government buildings. P A R K I N G Metered street parking. Overall, I really enjoyed my lunch at Bo&Beurre. If you work/live in the area, def check this new local business out. I'm hoping the bánh tằm bì will put them on the map!

I've been scouring the city for some mean tofu bahn mi sandwiches, and behold I come across another one. I've been to L&G next door and am I huge fan, but this place has really good reviews and is open later, so thought I would give it a try. The outside looked unwelcoming, and when I walked in it looked like they were about the close, but they were really nice. It was served hot and and fresh, but lacked crunch so I put it in the toaster oven when I got back. However if you like it softer it's great. The flavors worked, and the tofu was seasoned well with the sauce. I really needed Sriracha and was surprised they don't give any hot sauce, but the guy was nice to offer some leftover ones they had from their own meals, though I felt weird taking them so I just had the Sriracha at home. It was also reasonably sized, but for $8 it was a tad pricey for a sandwich. However not really much to complain about it other than the tofu side of the sandwich being blander than the veggie side of it. For something open late night, not a bad option. They are very nice and has a casual feel to it, but the quality is definitely there. Looking forward to trying it again some time!

Ordered the tofu sandwich and Vietnamese iced coffee. Delivery was super quick. The sandwich was still hot when I got it. Fresh bread and ingredients. Only small thing was that they didn't fill up the coffee to the top. It was still delicious.

Bbq pork banh mi is my favorite from this place! The buns are nice and soft but also crispy on the outside

I had been living in the SF area for several months and I was about to leave SF permanently. I had heard of and read the reviews for Bo & Beurre. It was on my bucket list of things to do before leaving SF. I liked it so much after the first try, that I drove back into SF two more times before I left. Excellent food!! I highly recommend you try Bo & Beurre if you're in the SF area.

Went here on a weekday around 12:45 and was instantly greeted with a warm smile and hello. Cute ambiance. Ordered lemongrass beef sando. Service was fast and friendly. The bread was soft with a crispy exterior--exactly what you want. Plenty of vegetables and jalapeños. The beef was very juicy and tender, with a little pink. Although the price point might be a bit high for some, I definitely recommend checking this place out. I will be back!!

Tastes just like an authentic mom and pop Vietnamese sandwich shop. Other sandwich shops overload their sandwiched which is cool but this place gives the perfect amount of meat and veggies! Definitely go support!

Amazing service! Mom and pop feeling once you walk inside. My favorite go to sandwich is the Lemongrass Beef Bahn Mi with the Apple Spritzer 10/10 everytime. Always consistent with the sandwich never misses. MUST TRY the soups when they are available they always sell out fast when they do have them and is not always available(tip to get the soup follow them on Instagram to know what days the soup will be available)

BBQ pork bun mi sandwich ($9!) With tasty with plenty of meat, super fresh cilantro, cucumber, carrots, and jalapeños. She was attentive and efficient. It is clean, and there are two small tables to sit with various beverages offered. They have coffee and Thai tea as well. I walked from Polk Street and felt safe enough. I sat to eat, and it was quiet. Try this place!

It was very delicious! I believe was my first time eating here- I would definitely try more of the menu!

Bo & Beurre has to be one of the best bahn mi in the city has down! The food is all up to par! The family does a great job of delivering the best service possible! You really can't forget about the weekend specials either with the authentic Vietnamese home cooking! 100/10! You have to try it

Amazing authentic yummy delicious. Lemongrass beef is my favorite. Bo&Buerre, where the sauce is boss. And sometimes they'll put out some other off menu authentic deliciousness like Bun Rieu. It was fire!!!

They don't speak a ton of English, but a little patience and you are on your way to an amazing Banh mi experience. There were a few very sweet ladies running the show, and they have your typical Banh mi selection. Given that there are literally 3 Banh mi spots within 100 yards, I can say after trying all 3 many times that each is a different experience and a different sandwich. All are good but I particularly like the combo sandwich from here because they have char Siu in theirs. I'm not a char Siu person, but the way they have it thinly sliced, not too sweet, and definitely not dry, I much prefer my combos from here now. Very generous portion and decently priced. Will come here again for sure. And their bread is soooo fresh, light, and crispy! Highly recommend because even though Saigon Sandwich and L&G are also good and close by, you are getting a different experience here that is just as good if not better.

I can't say enough good things about Bo&Beurre The food was absolutely phenomenal - tender, smoky, and perfectly seasoned. Every dish, from the juicy brisket to the mouthwatering ribs, was cooked to perfection. The sides were just as impressive, with [mention any standout side, e.g., creamy mac and cheese or tangy coleslaw] complementing the meal perfectly. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure a great experience. If you're craving authentic food , this is the place to be!

Great good and service !! They have Vietnamese coffee and modify to make it to how you like it.
