CM Banh Mi

OH MY GOSH! we walked in and immediately loved the vibes. the walls and ceilings and tables have so many houseplants, there's a variety of comfortable seating (including window seating!), a wall of little guys and knick-knacks, games to play, and cute decorations. the cashier and cook greeted us kindly and got our orders out quick! i got a Pork Meatball Banh Mi which was delicious and not too spicy (until i accidentally got like 8 seeds on one pepper!! that's on me. i grabbed it from the bottom of the bag. 🤦‍♀️) we shared the Chili Oil Wontons, which were also delicious; great texture, warmth, and a little spicy she got the House Special Banh Mi and after finishing the first one, immediately was hungry for another! she also got the Vietnamese Ice Coffee, but wishes she had gotten it without the sea salt crema (too salty for her) while we waited for our orders, we played the card game "Blink!" wish was fun and simple. (i won 😉)

I've been wanting to come here for a while, and glad i finally did. This was the best baby mi I've had in a long time. The baguette was so soft, and fresh. The cafe is super cute, and the staff is very inviting. 10/10. I can't wait to go back.

The grilled chix banh mi and the House special banh mi sandwiches were fantastic! The house made apple kimchi paired extremely well with the chix. Plenty of fresh veggies and the best roll to wrap them all up. Yum. Also, added the sweet/tangy wonton were incredible. We found a new favorite spot. Don't forget to add some homemade chili oil to your order. We even got a couple of small jars to take home and share.

We went to CM today. We happened upon it on a work field trip to Next Level, because one of our team is vegan. First off, walked in, this place is adorable with the nicest touch of real plants everywhere. We were greeted by a very welcoming crew of women. 3 that i could see. The menu choices all sounded superb. I had a hard time choosing. Decided on the bbq pork bahn mi....SOOOOO GOOD. Get the chili oil and kimchi add on( i got my my kimchi on the side), everyone got different things, bahn mi, wonton, noodles. Everything looked, smelled and was delicious! When my husband and I come back to Next Level (which we do at least once a year) we will 100% be back to this amazing place. Go here, indulge, be happy!

The bahn mi and Thai iced tea was so good! They have a small pantry for those in need rn with so many things to choose from. The staff is super nice and you can tell they care about the community.

Stopped in for lunch. Never been before but read a lot of really great reviews. They deserve ever one. The food was quick, fresh, and so delicious. I ordered a pork meatball bahn mi and my husband got the bbq pork w/kimchi. The veggies were so crisp and delicious and the meat was perfectly seasoned. I got chili oil on my sandwich as well as an order of the chili oil wontons. I would highly recommend it. I also ordered a Thai iced tea and could definitely tell they brew their tea in-house, not just a concentrate. Staff was super kind and friendly. We had some great conversation when a staff member came to check how we were doing. I will definitely be coming back and telling friends about this place.

I'm still here with my son, who is a very picky eater son. But I took a gamble to see if he'd try anything. He chose the vegetarian wonton soup, as did I along with a veg Bahn Mi. He said 5 stars! It's officially his favorite soup! I have to agree. The food is delicious and the atmosphere is delightful. Rachel is kind and has a great disposition. Yum!

The vegetarian Thai curry has been my usual here for over a year. It's like eating a bowl of pure gold. Rich in flavor and full of vegetables, you feel a million times better after you finish it. I also love the chocolate banana mini loaf. It's crammed with a crazy amount of chocolate chips and it's mini so you don't have to worry about calories. But the main reason to eat here is the CM Banh Mi family. They're what makes this place so special!

I love this place! You'll be treated like family from the moment you enter. The vibe is cool! They have a fun wall that displays some cool trinkets and some board games available too. Be sure to check their specials board, there's always something delicious highlighted. My husband usually ends up ordering from there, this time it was chicken Pho, but he's had vermicelli bowls in the summer too. It changes seasonally and with the weather. My daughter and I usually go for the lemongrass pork banh mi. It's large, the bread is crunchy on the outside but soft in the inside, and it's full of meat and veggies. They always check in to see how you're doing and genuinely want to have a conversation. Last time we were there they had a super stocked free pantry for the community during the Snap cuts. Incredible. They really work to be part of the community. Highly recommend stopping in for a sandwich and to experience the caring service yourself.

Everything here is amazing! My husband and I came in for the first time today, and I truly wish we had pictures of the food but it was so good that we ate it before we could even take a photo. This is probably my favorite banh mi place in Oregon so far. I got a barbecue pork banh mi and it was so moist and tender compared to other places that leave it dry. The bread itself, even at 4:00 in the afternoon, was unbelievably fresh and wonderful! I love that this location is family run and operated. The ambience here is totally welcoming and relaxing. Everything is also so very clean! Putting the amazing food aside, the star here was the service received. Every employee I interacted with was unbelievably pleasant and polite. I cannot wait to come back here again soon!

Amazing food and service at this asian woman owned business. The bahn mi is so delicious with fresh veggies, savory meats. The other offerings are equally fantastic; chili wonton, wonton soup, and the noodles are so flavorful and yummy. The drinks are made fresh and add a refreshing component to your food choice. I haven't had a chance to try the pastry dessert offerings but they look great. My fav is the grilled pork bahn mi. Highly recommended for a mouthful of flavor!

In a word, disappointing. Let's get straight to the point... if you are looking for banh mi... this is in NO WAY a competitor to Best Bagguette. Similar price, significantly less content. Great for folks in Hillsboro this is there, but no point venturing that far for anyone else. I'll go back to the OG for banh mi. I can't comment on other parts of the menu but this feels low value for me. They were so cheap they put all the veggies in one bag... what if this was for various coworkers?

Delish!! Was driving through the area and looking through Yelp for somewhere to stop for lunch. This place popped up so we decided to give it a go. SO glad we did! Small but not cramped space decorated well so it felt cozy and mix of seating options. Menu had variety without being overwhelming. Everything made to order and came out quick. We had the pork kimchi & the bbq pork banh mi's and some spicy wontons. We inhaled everything. Banh mi bread was crispy on the outside, soft on the inside and plenty of filling. Wontons had really lovely flavour and a hum of spice. Owner was lovely and had a bit of a chat when she brought out our food. Would stop here again in a heartbeat if we're out this way.

Outstanding service, wonderful food - what a treat! We just had the best time enjoying a family lunch here. Highly recommend this spot.

Super friendly staff and a good bahn mi. Number 1 was good - a bit low on filling but it is a sub 10 dollar banh mi. Sweet chili ray wonton were good wish they added some veges to it

Honestly, they have such delicious food and the staff are always welcoming and kind. And the vibe of the restaurant is so cute, it may be small but they took that into consideration when decorating that you don't feel uncomfortable. My brother and I come here pretty often and we are both neurodivergent, we really do like it here, it feels like it's a warm safe place for us and once again the staff have always been so kind to us. PLEASE SUPPORT THEM!

Iʻm a little irritated that CM Bahn Mi isnʻt closer to my house. Not only do I dream about the fresh avocado shakes (none of that green icy watery powder stuff) but the Bahn mi are so very good. And did I mention how cool the owner is? I got into a very thoughtful conversation about raising strong willed girls in the short time I was there. They also offer cute and inspirational stickers to customers (I choose a "be patient with yourself" one). Oh, and the decor of minis on the wood wall is pretty cool. If you happen to be in Hillsboro, check them out.

I always get the vegetarian banh mi with added egg and chili oil and it's so yummy! I always make sure to add extra chili oil and siracha too! Veggies are fresh and service is fast, would recommend checking this place out. My new go to.

Came here 20 mins to closing on a Monday afternoon. They close at 2pm on Mondays. The lady did not look so happy when we arrived :( This place is cute and decorated very well. We ordered the House Special Bahn Mi and the Chicken Bahn Mi, Chicken Steamed buns and Pork Steamed buns. I don't think they put enough meat on the House Special Bahn Mi. The bread is very good, crunchy outside and very soft inside. Unfortunately, I've have better Bahn Mi close to my office. Not coming back. PS: the owner came out while we were waiting for my order, she is very very kind and friendly.

CM Banh Mi brings the charm and is rightfully a neighborhood favorite. Food: lightweight, crisp, and flaky baguette bread! We ordered the grilled chicken banh mi and this has got to be one of the best I've tried in the area. There is a generous amount of vegetables and filling. Ambiance: the interior is beautifully decorated with hand-made wood elements and plants. It really is something unique! Service: I met one of the owners when I went in and they were so kind. I have nothing to say but positives about this place! Location: do note that the parking is narrow, if you have a wider car it is best to park at the nearby food complexes and walk.

The bread the banh mi was served on was extremely delicious; crispy but still light. The person who took our order was very sweet and asked us how our food was. The location of this place is very inconspicuous so you must look for it. The interior was very inviting with many spaces to sit as well as a station where you can add other condiments! Loved this place, definitely recommend. If you love banh mi this place is a must!

I was able to finally try. Every time when I wanted to try this place, they're closed for the day (haha). Environment: Anyways, they have a very small place but they made good use of the space they had. Great AC as it was warm when I visited. They had an interesting. They're known for banh mi but also Chinese dishes such as wonton and noodles. This place was partially self-service because you get your own cups and napkins. Staff: they were friendly and tried to be sanitary with the materials used for both staff and customers. For example, instead of using your finger to touch the ipad to pay, they give you a little touch pointer instead. Never happened before so I was surprised but also appreciated it. Food: we ordered 2 banh mi's to go. ($7.75 each) 1. Lemongrass grilled chicken without the jalapeno 2. Lemongrass grilled pork without jalapeno For both, the mayo was a little too strong for my liking. I also expected lemongrass and grilled flavor but lacked both. The bread wasn't very good, not tasted enough perhaps but I also noticed the carrot shreds were very thick so the whole time I was just eating and munching on carrots like a bunny (lol). If they were shredded a bit thinner, it would be easier to eat. I'm glad I tried but there is another baguette place that I'd rather much eat as the banh mi in general was on the bland side.

I absolutely love Bahn Mi. Wandered in here when I got turned around during construction and it was the happiest accident I've ever had. The staff is exceptionally kind. Their Bao is so delicious. The interior is clean and well decorated. Plenty of seating for the people looking for a quick sit down lunch on their breaks. I keep weird hours so my only sadness is the hours. Nothing that deserves the loss of a star. If you want some killer Bahn Mi, soups, or bao, this is THE place to come! You will not be disappointed.

Grabbed a quick lunch, couple of banh mi and buns and bubble tea. Overall it was fine, a bit on the expensive side. Doesn't quite compare to CA Bay Area. As my friend said, "it scratches the itch." Staff were friendly and the shop is very cute. We were early so not busy.

Pretty good bang for your buck banh mi. The exterior makes it look like an office, but the interior is vibey cute coffee shop. They have a gorgeous plant wall that's very photogenic. There's also a boardgame area, making it a cool all-ages hangout spot. The proprietor is very sweet and helpful when explaining the menu. In addition to banh mi, they have some hot dishes like soup and noodles. For the banh mi itself, I was expecting a little more pickle flavor in the pickles (carrots and daikon) as well as larger cuts of meat like in the chicken banh mi. But again, for the price it's fitting. Good spot when you're on a budget but still want to eat out.

I ordered the house special ($8.50) which is my go-to Banh mi order and it was very delicious! I loved how soft the bread was, yet had the perfect crunch from the outside. Trust me, it won't murder the inside of your mouth from the toasted bread like other Banh mi places... I also got the chili wontons ($9.95) and unfortunately it wasn't my favorite. The wontons itself lacked in flavor, I felt like they needed to season the meatballs more. Unfortunately, I wouldn't get that again but overall, I had a great experience. Loved the sandwiches, the environment, customer service and I hope to try more dishes like the Organic Pho Chicken.

One of my favorite Banh Mi spots outside of Portland. They have a lot of scrumptious vegan options and my daughter likes the rest of the menu. Highly recommended for fans of Vietnamese Cuisine, or those curious.

Their food is always great. Mostly, I've had their chicken pho and their Banh Mi. Both are always delicious. Their bread is always soft and the pho broth doesn't need any other added sauces. Staff is always friendly too. Great little restaurant and I always recommend this place to my friends.

The Banh Mi sandwiches here are so fresh and delicious, by far one of my favorite places if im craving a really good sandwich. Their drinks and boba are great too, you can taste the real fruit of the papaya in the smoothie and the avocado as well. The staff has always been so kind and welcoming and they make sure to get your orders out in a timely manner. Highly recommend!

Wow! The Grilled Pork Bahn Mi was so flavorful and delicious. The bread was sooo fresh. The staff listened to my request to remove the jalapeños and had them in a bag on the side. The Thai ice tea was delicious!!!!! Everything was clean and packaged/wrapped nicely. Can't wait to get more sandwiches from this little Gem of a place!!!!

I got to try this soup today . It exceeded my expectations. The broth was very savory and delicious with unique authentic flavors. The soup was brought out to me nice and hot . And the portion size was generous. This was the best Khoa Soi I have ever had . I highly recommend it! I will definitely come back for it again .

Delicious banh mi sandwiches, friendly service, trendy decor, & convenient location. I stop here whenever I'm in the area!

I'm one of those people who never leaves a review on Yelp. But I have to for this place--the BEST banh mi I've ever had!! The bread was incredible, the egg drop soup was piping hot and delicious, and the service was excellent--fast and SO friendly! Also, the space is so cute and clean. My only regret was not leaving a bigger tip when I initially ordered. I hope this review can lead to some new business for them :) Do yourself a favor and try em out ASAP.

We have been there three times/ The Sandwiches were good. My wife loves KHAO SOI (Thai coconut curry noodle soup). ostly. The staff is always friendly. I recommend to try them out.

The food is AMAZING !! So fresh and crisp delicious ingredients. The teas are also so freaking good. Also the owners and just everyone that works there always have an amazing attitude and so nice to talk to.The restaurant is so clean and comfortable to be in. I highly recommend this place to everyone!!

I had the lunch munchies this afternoon and figured I would give CM another chance. It had probably been over a year since my first visit/review. Sadly I had to downgrade my review. First I was asked if I was ok with jalapeños. I said yes....no jalapeños on sandwich. Very disappointed. Secondly veggies weren't pickled. This is another specific detail that was missing. Next it was basically a veggie sandwich with a (very) tiny bit of thin sliced pork. The pork is supposed to be the star of the sandwich. Lastly when the sandwich was "placed" on the counter for me to pick up, a great deal of filling (possibly one or two jalapeño slices that was actually put on the sandwich) fell onto the floor. I pointed this out and the response was "Are you OK?" Well I am not really ok. This will be my final visit/review. The second impression wasn't an improvement.

CM Banh Mi is the best! Any time we order it takes less than 5 minutes for us to get our sandwiches. It's also conveniently close to where we live so we love coming by anytime we have a craving for their sandwiches. I always get the BBQ pork, my husband gets the grilled beef. I know they might look a little skimpy on the meat but the sandwiches are pretty filling! Every time we come here our sandwiches are delicious. The bread is nice and soft on the inside and everything tastes really fresh. We love them!

I'm in town for work and have been here twice already and might just stop by one more time before I leave... Customer service! Not sure if it's the owner but both times I've had the friendliest welcome and great suggestions on what to eat. Food is delicious! get the extra chili and apple kimchi ! I've tried the house special and lemon grass banh mi. My son loved the bubble tea...

We're regulars. We LOVE this restaurant! Best service, crazy attention to detail, and embraces ethnicity. Every employee to owner is all about customer service, big time. They take such good care of us every single time. We keep coming back. GO! You'll love it on site or for takeout. They put love in their food.

Staff is friendly messed up my online order so I had to wait around for them to make me my missing sandwich.... Ended up buying more stuff while I was waiting ... The chili wonton is amazing .. they sell the sauce separate and I am going to buy some next time

Great Bang MI sandwiches, can't wait to try some of the other food. Place was very clean and staff was very friendly. Looking forward to going back with the whole family

Excellent.chicken pho. Very clean, excellent, friendly service. Great place to each lunch.

CM Banh Mi is a perfect lunch spot for a delicious sandwich and milk tea. I highly recommend also trying the wontons in chili oil. They make their own chili oil and it is very flavorful, without being too spicy. The sandwiches are a lighter portion which will leave you satisfied without being bogged down for the rest of your afternoon. When it gets a bit colder, I also recommend the chicken pho that is also made from scratch and very comforting. I usually focus my reviews on just the food, but the atmosphere here is wonderful! Very clean and modern. Great if you'd like to hang out and enjoy some milk tea and board games with friends.

PEACEFUL, FAMILY-OWNED HIDDEN JEWEL Yelp! recommended this location as "Hot and New" and we decided to give it a try, I had been longing Báhn Mì for a long time! It's easy to miss as you drive by, since it's somewhat hidden as you drive by. My friend Mike ordered the Thai Curry ($8.50) and he loved it. It came with a piece of french bread that caught his attention. For me, I ordered a delicious House Special Báhn Mì ($5.75), but there are these super tempting bánh bao buns right by the register that reminded me of my trip to Beijing so I had to get one with pork and vegetables ($2.75)... and a few inches to the right there are some pastries that say "meat pie" ($ 1.75) so I just had to get it. I did try to not finish all of it, but I couldn't. We asked about the bread: Why did it taste so delicious? Because it's fresh, made daily, baked at 3am and picked up at 6am from the downtown sister bakery. Every. Single. Day. "Try the Chicken Ph next time you're here" - said Rachel. Rachel is the owner and her husband built the tables and put a lot of effort into making with his own hands all the tables and wood decorations you'll see in the place, you'll notice the details in the the bowties that put together the hand-made wooden tables. Rachel is still working on decorating the wood wall and building the top of the mountain's peaks, which is beautiful even though is a work in progress. There is a nook in the back with board games and things so you can spend some time time, something I'll definitely do when I bring my family. Rachel shared that their daugher chose the decoration in the nook in the back, where each stick in the bottom and back represents a family and friend. As a family business, Sunday is for them. Follow them in Facebook and Instagram: @cmbanhmi This place emanates love in the food, in the decoration, in the attention to detail. #ruizmedina

It's a new year and thought I'd give an update on my review. Well, I'll tell you this much -- They are still on top of their game! During the pandemic, they had changed their hours to close earlier than normal, so it was hard for me to make it in after work since I commuted from Beaverton. But I relocated to a new job here in Hillsboro which is super close and can now stop in on the way home. It's been a long time, but to my sweet surprise, they still remembered me. Such down to earth, friendly, and humble people who care about their customers, their food, and the community. Some of my faves, like their Bahn Mi, wonton w/chili oil, and Chicken Pho are still amazing. Everything is made to order, ingredients are fresh, and food is so delicious. The chicken pho is especially comforting during these cold winter months. Oh, if you haven't tried their chili oil wontons, its addicting. I was so happy they also sold their chili oil by the jar, which I had to take home with me. My family and I have been using it with almost anything -- fried rice, eggs, or drizzled over meat, fish, or tofu. So yummy. I'm grateful they are still in business despite these trying times. To have them in our community is a blessing. They truly deserve to be here.

CM Banh Mi serves delicious sandwiches in addition to wonton soup, bubble tea, milk tea, smoothies and dessert treats. I visited today for lunch and ordered their vegetarian banh mi. The baguette and the inside veggies were all fresh and very tasty. I couldn't resist picking up two of their dessert treats also. These are small plexi containers of flavored mousse. I got a pistachio and a raspberry. They were tasty and just enough to satisfy the sweet craving. The man working at the counter was very nice. He was courteous and helpful. The dining area is stylish and inviting with plenty of seating. There are full windows on one side that give the place lots of light. CM Banh Mi is easy to find on Cornell in Hillsboro. There is parking available and bus 48 stops nearby. This place is worth visiting.

A cute little banh mi place in Hillsboro. I stopped by here on Saturday evening and it was moderately busy. They had a variety a banh mi, desserts, steamed buns, pate chaud, boba drinks, and some other dishes. I ordered the house special banh mi and an Okinawa milk tea with sea salt cream. It took about 5-10 minutes for the order to come out. The bbq bun was delicious and fluffy. The banh mi had good flavors and the right textures. Though, I wish there was a bit more meat. I did like that the bread was very soft! The drink was also good -- similar to 5 Flavors or Little Bear. One thing I just can't get over is how expensive banh mi is in Oregon compared to SoCal. The banh mi and drink came out to be $11. Overall, a pretty good banh mi and boba shop. The workers were nice and made sure we enjoyed our food and drinks. I would stop by again since it is near Pacific University.

Very yummy food! Great work. I order from you guys using UberEats and the quality and service is always perfect.

The food was amazing and the staff were incredibly friendly and social! Regardless of the outside view, the shop inside felt comforting and welcoming. I'd definitely recommend this place to friends and family. Hoping I get to come back again!

Sister loves the matcha green boba tea infused with fresh strawberry purée. I had a great original milk tea boba. Drinks are great! We both had the grilled Bahnmi sandwiches. The bread is perfection. It has the right crisp texture and insides. The grilled pork has amazing flavor and the veggies inside were fresh and delicious. Definitely worth getting the pork. I'll be back to try out the other offerings as well. They also offered organic chicken pho on a handwritten menu. This might be special. Highly recommend! My sister ended up getting another 6 sandwiches to go and also bought their homemade chili sauce . It was good on the sandwiches !

Wonton soup was excellent! Lemongrass pork bahn mi was tasty. I would definitely go back and try other stuff.

Have gone to this place a few times. The inside is cute, modern & clean. The banh mi sandwiches are really good. I and also had the bbq pork won ton noodle soup- it was delicious!

This Banh Mi was delicious! The bread was crispy on the outside and very soft on the inside. The flavors were a good combination, with crisp pickled veggies. The jalapeño was flavorful without being overwhelming. The pate added just the right punch and would be fantastic on a sandwich by itself. The Vietnamese coffee was very strong and has left my heart beating fast, just like it's supposed to do! will definitely be back!

Cute local gem serving fresh, tasty and filling Bahn Mi sandwiches (the bread was so crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the inside!) The boba was just the right amount of chewiness too. The owners were very nice and will definitely call them directly to order and pick up instead of going through GrubHub - come support this local business!

Hit the craving spot... taste like home but fancier .. the owner supper welcoming and friendly.

Dumplings were so good and vegetarian sandwich was so good as always. Fast delivery service. Thanks

Can't recommend this spot enough! The two women who helped us were SO kind and the meal was incredible. It was also impeccably clean, really nicely decorated with healthy plants and they were ultra Covid cautious (she passed me a sanitized stylus to use on the POS with tongs!). I got the veg bahn mi, their homemade plantain chips and a half sugar bubble tea with crystal boba and lychee jelly. My boyfriend got a lemongrass chicken bahn mi and pork bun. Everything was ultra fresh (the baguette! the crisp, flavorful veggies!) and clearly prepared with so much thought and care. The real kicker for me at this spot was their homemade chili oil, which is just beautiful! It's smoky, richly spiced with pho aromatics and not too spicy. Much more about the complex flavor than the heat. So glad we made the stop, can't wait to come back and try more items (the pho smelled AMAZING).
