Hoang Tofu

Best banh mi I've found in a long time. They have lots of options to order. I got combination and the grilled pork ones and they are DELICIOUS! I bought more after trying them. They make everything in house including the bread which I think really makes the banh mi. The grilled pork tastes really fresh and seasoning is just right and has a good butter. They put lots of meat and ingredients into their banh mi! They sell a variety of dishes here in addition to their tofu. I recommend their fried tofu! It's soft and creaThey have steamed rice cakes, Vietnamese hams, desserts and many more. Sugar cane juice was so good! Owners were really nice and quick! This is a busy place and many people place orders before coming in.

customer service was soooo bad. The old man who wore glasses snapped at EVERYONE. Have been so many Viet shops and this is the worst. He treated his customers like we were begging him for free food. Food was below average. Bread was old and chewy, he didn’t even bother to toast the bread. Pic below is a piece of mold on cucumber they didn’t care. Never come back. Anyone who reviewed that the food was good might never have an average viet food before.

It was our first time here. We stopped by for breakfast when visiting Nashville. I was glad that they opened at 8:30am. We ordered Pho, Bun Rieu and Banh Mi dac biet. I liked their banh mi a lot. It’s very crunchy outside and soft/fluffy inside. They make banh mi and Cha Lua (steamed pork roll) in house so they were very fresh at the time I ordered. We also got Nuoc Mia (sugar cane juice) and coconut jelly dessert. They were both delicious!!!! Definitely gonna go back for other items when we’re in town.

The only person working there was an older man. He was not friendly, only pointed and grunted at menu, etc. The only time he smiled or was pleasant was when I tipped him nicely, which he didn’t really deserve based upon his rough manner. They were out of crab tomato soup which I’d specifically come for, so I easily ordered the beef pho. I just wanted some good hot soup. It tasted fine going down, although I’ll say the meat did not seem of very good quality, plenty of fat and tendons. Otherwise it tasted fine. However, this soup did not sit well with me! I’m still dealing with a very upset stomach almost 24- hours later. I’ve never had pho make me feel poorly, but this sure did. Also, the cleanliness of the place should have been my tip off. It was not very clean or tidy.

Three wows for this spot! Their sandwiches are absolutely delectable. We savored the bò hàn quôc (korean beef), a dumpling, and dôī lōngh (coffee jello) – all delightful choices. Already planning my return to explore more of their menu. Just a heads up: bring cash or be prepared to spend over $10 to use a card.

Small restaurant, unassuming, very clean and the food is beyond amazing. Menu is limited but that is fine because everything they offer is the best of what it is. I see some people complaining about it not being clean but the only time I've seen that is when it's busy, they don't bus the tables fast. But I don't even care because the food is that good and it's a little family owned place that seems very clean overall.

Small family owned Vietnamese deli -- perfect for a quick lunch! Very delicious banh mi, despite being only $4.50! I got the lemongrass tofu and grilled pork banh mis and both were fantastic! There are also a selection of homemade Vietnamese goodies like banh chung (sticky rice with pork), fish cakes, egg tarts, meat pies, flan, pandan jelly, and sugar cane juice! Will be trying the noodle soup options (like pho and bun rieu) during my next visit! -- All the dishes I've tried: 🥖 Banh Mi: I've gotten 4 banh mi here (grilled pork, lemongrass tofu, Vietnamese bologna, and Korean BBQ beef) and they're consistently good for the price ($4.50). The baguette is reminiscent of New Orleans bread -- crackly exterior and soft fluffy interior. Each banh mi has a thin layer of pate, pickled carrot and daikon, cilantro, and jalapeno. 🧋Sam bo luong (che sam bo): A really unique Vietnamese dessert soup -- it has pearl barley, dried longan, jujubes, lotus seeds, and sliced seaweed in a sugar water base. Not my favorite, but I'm glad I've tried it. 🍗 Hainanese Chicken (Cơm Gà Hải Nam): Poached chicken and rice accompanied with cucumbers, mint, cilantro, leafy greens, and spicy fish sauce. The rice is really flavorful since it's cooked in chicken broth. I wish there was more chicken, but overall a balanced dish. 🍮 Egg tart: Very tasty -- the crust is flaky and buttery and the egg custard is rich and sweet. 🥝 Coconut pandan jelly: A multi-layered jelly flavored with pandan and coconut. Not too sweet. 🍙 Banh chung: Sticky rice, mung bean paste, and pork wrapped in banana leaves. 🥧 Vietnamese meat pie (pate chaud): A flaky pastry with a ground pork filling. Tasted great but it's been a while so I don't remember it much. 🍢 Fish cakes: I've gotten a container of fish cakes from here to eat with rice. They're good, but my boyfriend thinks they are stinky.

I always go here for their banh mi and their banh tet thit and banh chung. The banh mi is great! I think it's a perfect size for the price. They're not as big as some other banh mis you might find around (those are more expensive), but I think they're perfect as they are; I like to finish my banh mis in one sitting anyway. They sell them Buy 5 get 1 free at $5 each (2023 prices, may rise with inflation), so for $25+tax you basically get lunch for the entire week. There are a ton of options too. It's my go to when I know I have a busy week coming up and limited time to make food! They also sell a lot of things you can't find anywhere else. Banh tet thit and banh chung being some of those. It's absolutely delicious and everything I was looking for. I'm super glad this place exists in Nashville, otherwise I'd be forced to try to learn how to make these tough dishes all by myself. They keep the place very neat and clean, but the ambiance doesn't really lend itself super well as a dine-in place. I love it as a place to quickly pick up some pre-prepped banh tet thit and banh chung from their fridge, while waiting a few minutes for them to prep your banh mi (they're fast!). I bring those home, store my haul of banh mi in the fridge and when I'm ready, heat it up in the oven until the bread is a little crispy, then stuff in the veggies they sometimes package on the side for you when they know you're not eating all of them right away. I also store the banh tet thit and banh chung in my fridge, then cut it up and heat it in the microwave when I am ready to eat those. Usually all gone within the week! Going here is my dose of happiness, I love this little place!

Ordered beef pho & 6 banh mi sandwiches Service was fast & absolutely delicious. Small store with such a kind gentleman behind the counter.

I visited Hoan Tofu on a Saturday afternoon around 3 pm, right after a run. I was craving something flavorful and quick, and this place did not disappoint. With a Vietnamese background - I wanted a Banh Mi (sandwiches), so I ordered the Cha Dac Biet (combination) and the Thit Nuong (grilled pork). The service was great, simple, and quick. Initially, the lady didn't assume I spoke Vietnamese, but after I greeted her in Vietnamese, she welcomed me with open arms and was friendly regardless of the language I spoke. The small gesture made me feel more at home and was an even more pleasant experience. The sandwiches were delicious, especially considering the price and the limited availability of quality Asian cuisine in Nashville. The bread was fresh and crispy, and the fillings were well-seasoned. However, I felt that the banh mi could have used a bit more butter and pate to enhance the flavors further. Despite this, both sandwiches were satisfying and flavorful. Hoang Tofu is a small, no-frills spot with limited seating, so it's ideal for a quick bite or takeout. Don't let the humble appearance deter you--this place serves up some fantastic food. I will be returning for another round of their tasty banh mi.

Great quick and cheap eats! Really nice staff. Come get the 5, get one free. And grab some fresh sugar cane juice.

I dined at Hoang Tofu on Saturday, November 5, 2022 at 1 pm. Hoang Tofu is certainly a hole in the wall type establishment offering various Vietnamese dishes including pho, bun bo hue (spicy beef noodle soup), and banh mi, banh cuon/uot (rice crepe), and many more. It is a small place with very few tables, so I would not count on dining in if it's busy. I had a bowl of bun bo hue and a banh mi. Several times in the past I've had the bun bo hue, and the meat had tasted old. But this time, the meat tasted okay. So be aware that there are some consistency issues with meat quality in the bun bo, and potentially other noodle soups. The banh mi tasted good and is excellent for the price. There is a coconutty essence in the banh mi that is quite unique. Although Hoang Tofu's food tasted pretty authentic and decent by Vietnamese standards, I think it lacks restaurant quality. I think Hoang Tofu has more potential as a catering/ordering to-go business than a sit-in dining experience not only because there are very few tables for diners to eat in, but their service leaves much to be desired. The old folk running the front isn't a very patient guy and seem to not like answering "stupid" questions. Don't get me wrong, I think the food gets great reviews by the Vietnamese locals and there's a lot to try here, but I would not expect good service. A solid 3/5 stars.

I ordered a #7 Bo Han Quoc (bulgog beef) and it was very good. They have 2 small tables bit it's not really a dine in place; recommended for a quick to go bite. Was only $5.

Fire sandwhiches for literally so cheap. We got beef & chicken sandwhiches and both were really really good. The way this place looks might throw you off but don't let it deter you away. 10/10 would go again!

We had Bun Bo Hue and Banh Cuon here. The foods were ok. Bun Bo Hue has a lot of MSG. Banh Cuon was alright. Service sucks which I was expected. The guy who looks like an owner was mean. The table was dirty and sticky. Just expect to have zero ambiance, keep expectations low.

Best banh mi I've found in a long time. They have lots of options to order. I got combination and the grilled pork ones and they are DELICIOUS! I bought more after trying them. They make everything in house including the bread which I think really makes the banh mi. The grilled pork tastes really fresh and seasoning is just right and has a good butter. They put lots of meat and ingredients into their banh mi! They sell a variety of dishes here in addition to their tofu. I recommend their fried tofu! It's soft and creaThey have steamed rice cakes, Vietnamese hams, desserts and many more. Sugar can juice was so good! Owners were really nice and quick! This is a busy place and many people place orders before coming in.

Really loved this place! Wish I'd known about it sooner. Shared spring rolls, beef pho, crispy pork bahn mi, coconut jelly, and got egg rolls- cha gio to go (excited to try them later. It was extremely reasonably priced and everything delicious. There's a small area to dine in and lots of people came to order things to go so be prepared to stay awhile if you are dining in. Accepts card.

Please stop overpricing your prepared food. I am a loyal customer & every time I come, the bill is much more than it should be. You need to provide prices on your prepared foods. Not once have I seen an itemized bill. I walked away with $30 & I purchased 4 small items. I hope ur not taking advantage of your American customers.

Look, I try to support small businesses but today I definitely got fed up with the inconsistent prices. I do love this place for the sugar cane drink. It's refreshing and has a good hint of kumquat in it. What annoys me though is that one day I will get charged $6 for it (the lady charged me for that) but the guy has charged me from a range of $8-$13 for the same large size drink. It's pretty ridiculous. I don't love the banh mi...as it has a weird taste to me that I can't describe. I prefer interasia over this place. And I've had the bun Bo hue. Lacks flavor in my opinion and barely any protein. Rather go to VN for that.

Tasty banh mi! Although it's a minimal you-order-at-the counter-type of establishment, the banh mi is legit. At only $5, you get a sandwich full of your choice of protein, veggies like carrots and jalapenos, and mayo all in a fresh baguette that is baked in-house. If you're not good with spice, you may want to ask them to either reduce or eliminate the jalapenos since they're fresh, not pickled, and pack quite a kick. They also only take credit if your purchase totals $10 or more, so either plan to buy at least two sandwiches or have some cash on hand.

The bread was not toasted, the vegetables were limpy and didn't have flavor, and the meat tasted old. I was gonna get sugarcane juice until how I saw some of the items in the fridge weren't covered all the way. I was so excited but it just wasn't good. I'm sorry.

Awesome little family run takeout spot with the best pho in town, hands down. Some of best I've had anywhere actually. 10/10!!!

I've been wanting to try this place for a long, long time. My friends were visiting from Thailand and were craving Vietnamese food so the opportunity came. When we arrived, there was another Vietnamese couple eating. I grabbed a table and sat for a bit. There is a banh mi menu at the front of the store and the rest of the items are taped up against a glass cabinet to the left of the restaurant. We ordered the #1 cha dac biet and #4 thit nuong. Then we ordered 2 bowls of pho, 1 bowl of bun rieu, 1 bowl of banh cuon, and 1 bowl of banh hoi heo quay. They ran out of banh hoi and asked me if they could serve it with banh cuon which we were fine with. Then we ordered 1 sugar cane and 2 Thai teas. The baguettes were good. My friends enjoyed them as well as their pho. The banh cuon was good and the heo guay was crunchy. I could NOT eat my bun rieu. Everything about it was inedible- from the noodles to the rieu. I would not recommend to order this. It's my favorite noodle soup so I was so shocked. This is the only item I would never order again. I've been back a few times to order baguettes for the family. The French bread is buttery and flaky and I saw several customers just coming in and ordering baguettes so they have got to make them fresh in house. Fans of the bread! They also have pastries on the weekend that they don't offer on the week day. I wanted to like it more and give it a solid 3.5 stars with the baguettes rounding it up to the 4.

I don't know about other reviews but for me this is the best Banh Mi I have ever had in my life. I am new to the area and Yelp recommended this place for a Banh Mi. After I saw the menu, I was pretty sure this place is legit! Like hole in the wall kind of place. I am not a Banh Mi expert but this Vietnamese sandwich exceeds all of my expectations. I will come back for sure and order 10 of them. I can eat this everyday seriously!

Great food at a good price. I eat here often and am never disappointed. The older guy is a hoot and one heck of a cook. Looks annoyed that I don't speak Vietnamese but that's okay, it merely adds to the experience. Like eating at your Uncles house.

I specifically asked if anyone had a recommendation for banh mi in Nashville that serves pate in the sandwich, and I was recommended to try Hoang Tofu. There have been too many times that I've ordered banh mi in Nashville and have been severely disappointed that some or several of the main components of a banh mi are missing. I'm Lao, and in Lao we call banh mi "kow-jee pate" which literally translates to "pate bread," so the fact that I get served banh mi without pate makes me very sad. It's a critical element of the sandwich and adds a unique richness. All that is to say, Hoang Tofu DOES put pate in all of their sandwiches (except probably the tofu one - I didn't clarify). I only ordered two sandwiches to try, #1 cha dac biet (special) and #4 BBQ pork. The French bread is buttery and flaky, and just crusty enough to not tear up the roof of my mouth when biting into it. Y'all know what I mean. Both sandwiches had pate, cilantro, cucumber, mayo, Maggi seasoning, and pickled carrots and daikon. The only topping missing was jalapeno, but they absolutely nailed the rest (especially daikon and Maggi). The #1 had almost all the meats expected, but no headcheese, but maybe Nashville's not the market for that. The #4 BBQ pork wasn't really barbecued or grilled, so it lacked that charred flavor, but still good overall. They also serve a few other noodle soup dishes like pho and bun rieu, but I did not try them. My boyfriend tried the pho, and as a pho addict, he said it was good. As others mentioned, Hoang Tofu also sells other items that you can grab and go. I also saw them bringing in fresh tofu, so I assume that you can buy tofu here too. I went home with some steamed sticky rice with mung bean and pork wrapped in banana leaf, one of my favorites. Will definitely be back for this as well as the buy 5 get 1 free banh mi deal! I bet you can also order the veggies "outside" the sandwich if you order a large quantity.

The food was delicious and I had a Togo order and everything that was in the food was put separately so you can cook it your own way

Best banh mi in Nashville, will me coming back lots. The most authentic Vietnamese food you can get here. I got the barbecue pork banh mi and my husband got the chicken banh mi. We both loved our meals! Really cheap at $5 per sandwich.

Hoang Tofu is a humble Vietnamese spot off Charlotte pike that makes tasty báhn mì, amongst other dishes like their bánh cuốn with crispy tofu. There is sit down dining but it is a small place, so takeout is a good option. The food is delicious, and by all observable I could make, very authentic. I take people on immigrant owned food tours for my business, Nashville Hidden Gems (insta: @nashvillehiddengems). This is a place I will definitely consider when doing tours of the Charlotte Pike area. The staff I interacted with spoke limited English, but there was nothing lost in communication. Tell them the number of what you want and they will happily take your order. For the exceptional value, you're not going to get michelin star service. They work hard to get take orders and get everything out quickly. Will be going again often.

You won't find better sandwiches in Nashville. The homemade flaky french bread, fresh veggies, and crazy cheap prices will keep you coming back. The people are super nice and everything is delicious. I can't recommend it highly enough.

Simple cafe with excellent food. It's gotta be tough selling Vietnamese food in this West Nashville neighborhood with 5 similar places close by, but this place never disappoints. Very simple menu with 5 choices, and fresh Vietnamese pastries on the counter. Highly recommended for a fast fresh lunch.

Was heading back to Kansas from Nashville and wanted to surprise everyone with some good Bahn mi, sadly these was a huge language barrier on some of the orders. Luckily that was corrected before we left. They had fresh rambutan, sugar cane juice, and much more. The kitchen even makes some delicious stews and noodles. 10 hours later getting back to Kansas, we ate the sandwiches. Since we took it to go they graciously packed the vegetables on the side; they do ask as well if you want them in or on the side. Having ordered the special sandwich #1 we were all sad to bite into it and there was no pate or head cheese. That's what really makes the banh mi stand out from other sandwiches. The bbq pork sandwich was disappointing as well, it just didn't have that kick. The sugar cane juice was definitely refreshing. Hopefully next time I'm in the area I'll try their other dishes.

Was disappointed by all fronts on my visit here. Ordered the special, 2 rolls of pepper cha, a Viet coffee, and a Thai tea. The Thai tea was really watered down and generic tasting. The Vietnamese coffee was way too sweet. It was more of a bac xiu* than a cà phê sua đá. But onto the sandwiches. I expected the sandwich to have head cheese, and pate, which đac biet sandwiches usually have and THIS DIDN'T. *TEARS* What it did have instead was char siu pork, and it also came with a thinner version of char siu sauce instead of the regular soy sauce you'd find in a sandwich. The bread and meat were both on the dry side and the veggies that came with it were meh in that it was mainly shredded carrot and very little daikon, and it was also kind of shady on the cilantro. I'd say their version of the đac biet is a Viet version of the po'boy. I would gladly pay $5 a sandwich if it came with all the fixings. It tasted so much better when I got home and added my own paté, head cheese, some kewpie mayo, and good ol Maggie seasoning. The total for my order came out to $50, so it was very easy on the pocket. For $3.25 a sandwich, there was a decent amount of meat. It's a solid value, overall. *I apologize for the lack of, or completely butchered, accent marks. Only some would show up after I submitted via the app!

Great small Vietnamese deli that serves banh mi, Pho, bun rieu, rice noodles, and a small selection of other Vietnamese snacks and pastries. It is very small if you're use to the Vietnamese deli scene in Atlanta, LA, Houston, etc., but it's good enough for Nashville. Sandwiches (banh mi) are all very tasty and reasonably priced. Buy 5, get 1 free! They make a very tasty bun rieu (Tomato crab noodle soup) which is even hard to find in most restaurants. The Portuguese egg tarts and meat-filled puff pastries are a must try! They also serve slushes and bubble tea with tapioca balls. One of my favorite drinks is the sugar cane juice. Very refreshing! They do run out of items frequently so call ahead if you're dead set on getting something. Service is friendly. WARNING: There is no AC so if you're like me and can't stand the summer heat, I would recommend getting your food togo. Credit card only for $10 and up!

excellent banh mi at a pretty fair price. love the buy 5 get 1 free but to be honest i dont always need 5 banh mis lol. but if u got friends thjs is good. to vegetarians: the tofu banh mi is pretty good !!! also general note: when ordering just know the numbers that correlate w ur order (like "1 #1") bc it's easier on u and the workers both

I am not sure how this place is still open with all the other amazing Vietnamese places around or why it gets good reviews. We decided to try a new place and came in on a dead Friday evening. We should have turned around when we were greeted by the smell of nail shop chemicals and the sound of something loud cranking behind the curtain in the back. But we pressed on. Between the three of us, we ordered the pho, a cold dish with rice noodles and cold beef, a warmish dish with rolled rice noodles and tofu, and the lemongrass tofu bahn mi. The beef pho came out with spaghetti like noodles and circular mystery meat, which we've never had in pho. A big disappointment. The other two rice noodle dishes seemed thrown together and were okay, but not something either of us would order again. The one star is for the bahn mi. The bread was good, tofu was crispy, and the pickled veggies were crunchy. I don't feel like my expectations were too high and I'll gladly look over some atmospheric annoyances if the food is great. But both the ambiance and the food left us disappointed. Someone tell me what is special about this place.

THEY MAKE DELICIOUS FOODS!!! I traveled through Nashville from DC and carving some viet food. I got to Hoang Tofu and got me some Banh Mi and as I expected from the reviews. They nailed the flavors as if they are in Vietnam. I also bought roasted duck meats and a loaf of ham. They were great, tasted delicious and look high quality homemade. Sometime a shop looks like a hole in the wall kind of shop will be the one surprise you the most.

I highly recommend their Banh Mi and for the knock out price you will get some tasty food. They have a limited menu but given their popularity, seems like Hoang Tofu does it well. I think their food and price is great, I'd definitely be visiting for banh mi and their beverages. But I perceive the place better for take out. Banh Mi is such a hard find in this part of town. Or maybe I just don't know where to go. Hoang Tofu has delicious banh mi and perhaps with the most variety. I have been there twice till date, and ordered the korean bulgogi and the teriyaki chicken. They have about 11 different flavors, and one with fish too. And at about $3 some dollars, it's a steal. Their baguettes are soft and buttery. All too often I have had baguettes scrape the top of my mouth but these didn't do that. And the flavor was well balanced. Delicious. And not that spicy. The filling could be more, but the banh mi are $3 and they are well worth the price. But the place is just one of those that you want to take away or you probably will not find what you are looking for always. The boba was delicious and seemed like real taro was used, but they had no pearls. So it was essentially a taro shake with crushed ice. The flavor was on point but I wish they just made a smoothie, because i found myself crunching on ice unpleasantly. The previous time I was there (granted a year ago), their air conditioning was not working and they were open but could not offer all that on the menu. Which at least they were honest about. And they still managed to offer the beef bulgogi which was delicious! So kudos on that. The restaurant though clean and well air conditioned could do with a better outlook. They have a huge glass fridge which is clean but so messy and kind of an eyesore. The same with the way food trays were kept at the counter. The service was quick though. Our food and those of other customers came out quick. The place seemed popular as within 30 min there were three other customers for the small space it is. I loved that they have chicken, beef and fish banh mi and they offer a selection of drinks( they have sugar cane juice!!!!) and boba tea for only $3. Probably will see myself takeout more.

Really authentic Vietnamese food. Service was fast and the Bahn mi was amazing. Would definitely come back again

Fast friendly service and their pho was on point. I also order their bbq pork banh mii. Buy five get one free.

4 stars for their banh mi! Nashville, what's up, tho?!!! I am so proud of our city as our food selection grows bigger each day. Just like the typical banh mi places around the country, if you buy 5, you get 1 free. Great way to try all their different sandwiches as they have a lot! I ordered their BBQ pork & grilled pork- both were amazing! I *try* my hardest to limit my meat and carbs intake but I just had to try them. Their homemade bread is where it's at, too! It's nice & flaky. The sandwiches were delicious! I was quite disappointed with their pho, tho. Probably just me but I didn't particularly like the meat.The broth was just fine as well. Try it tho. They sell a bunch of other things here! I ordered their homemade kimchi which did not taste like kimchi to me. It was sweet but I actually really liked it. We also ordered their egg tart, that was good! Small little joint with full of flavors. Thank you for coming to Nashville!

I would like to put in a word for something that does not get enough attention--the crispy fried tofu as an ingredient. While most eat this prepared in báhn mì, one can get this pre-packaged for home cooking. One can simply dip it in a home made sauce or cook it in with fresh tomatoes in Đậu Sốt Cà Chua. We even tried freezing it. While it is probably best fresh, freezing gives it a firmer chewier texture provided one squeezes out the moisture that forms after it is thawed. We have tried the bahn mis, which are serviceable, although other spots we found to be crispier. The other dishes and ingredients are where this place excels (including duck).

If good customer service is what you're looking for, then this is not the place for you. If you want authentic and tasty Vietnamese food, then this is the place you need to go. I had the Bún bò Huế and bánh mì thịt nướng and both were fantastic. It reminded me of my mom cooking back home. Will definitely come back for more.

Limited menu. Limited English. Great pho. Ordered a sandwich and was redirected to another sandwich. Out of what I ordered. Korean bbq chewy. Not the best. Did I say great pho? Yup.

So don't come here for the ambiance, this is a small family business with just a handful of tables. However, don't let that fool you...this was one of the best bowls of pho I've had in years! The broth is truly flavorful, not just a pho seasoning cube thrown in boiling water. The portion was sizable, I left stuffed with a regular sized bowl. The meat was fresh and didn't have a gamey taste or smell. Truly a gem to find. I also ordered some sandwiches to go since I was in town for a few days, also very good quality with satisfying fillings. I will definitely be back whenever I'm in Nashville!

the best Vietnamese food in the area for the price I knew it was legit when I visited and we had a hard time ordering food due to a language barrier 10/10 will come again (and I did)

I have to begin by saying I didn't eat any of the food here. I had boba craving and the closest one was here. As soon as I entered the place I was kind of skeptical because food was just laying out in the open like banh chung. I ordered 3 boba drinks (mango, strawberry and coconut); I drank the mango and WOW. It was so fresh. I joked with my friend that the lady who made it must have gone and picked the fruits herself. GET THEIR BOBA. You won't regret it!

Amazing amazing amazing!! You know it's amazing when they only have like 6 things On the menu. My favorite place to get bun rieu (tomato crab soup, best in Nashville in my humble opinion), my second favorite place to get pho (my favorite is at vin long by the airport). The price is amazing, the family who own this shop here are always so friendly and sweet. Their banh mi is amazing I recommend the roasted pork one, but make sure they roast the bread and pork it's crispy outside and juicy inside it's amazing! On weekends they have fresh asian grocery items such as bread fruit all kinds of pastries and deserts, meats like duck and roasted pork for sale. If you want the best bun rieu in Tennessee look no further!

I was in the area and decided to stop here since I love bahn mi sandwiches and the fact that this joint had some great reviews. I saw the sandwiches we're b5g1 and with the low price of 3.25 a sandwich I decided to get 1 of each so we could try a bite of each one and have food for the next couple days lol. The sandwiches do not have much meat but they do offer more meat for a small fee. The sandwiches have fresh french baguettes and fresh veggies. The flavour is very good even with the little bit inside of them. The establishment was fairly clean even though the building is a bit outdated. The lady at the counter was friendly and patient while we figured out which ones we wanted. I have only taken a bite out of a few and so far I'm highly impressed that these taste as good as they do for the price. I highly recommend this place if you are in the area.

Sometimes the bread for the banh mi here is perfect and I can just eat them without the any meat or fillings. On a good day, they're light, buttery and flakey and just so good! Then sometimes like today (Sunday at 1pm) it was stale and you can tell they toasted the bread from yesterday's left over or something. Just so hard and not fresh. This has happened to us several times already, normally in the evening but we got three banh mi's this afternoon and we're so disappointed. I hope they don't keep taking short cuts like this

This place has potential but I cannot recommend them given their (lack of) customer service and unsanitary conditions. This is definitely a hole in the wall type place. The employees generally ignored me and speak very limited English. None of the employees wore masks or gloves and my server coughed directly into his hand. I had the crispy pork and grilled pork bahn mi with Viet Iced coffee. The food was above average for Vietnamese in Nashville but not amazing.

The best Bahn Mi. Me he prices are great, the bread is perfect. I have never had better bread on a sandwich. It's buttery, flakey, soft, and absolutely wonderful. The restaurant itself is very weird. There is usually an assortment of food items just sitting everywhere but not really for display purposes. Either way, perfect Bahn mi.

Hidden gem. Friendly service and good food. The Banh cuon was very good. It reminded me of California.

Nashville is growing! I am so happy to see that our city is getting so diverse in Asian cuisine. This place has great banhmis, banhcuon, crispy pork, and duck! You can also order 5 sandwiches and get 1 free. Mix and match your choice of sandwich as well. They have bubble tea, other Vietnamese soup dishes, and pastries you can buy and take home. I usually get the beef pho, and the flavor is good you don't have to add a bunch of seasoning to it. Must try!

Hole in the wall place, menu all in Vietnamese, the pho bowls were smaller sizes. Lots of Banh mi choices, but I'm all about the pho. Broth tastes authentic enough. Just not very many selections and they ran out of alot of ingredients and dishes that the selection was even smaller. Small space, definitely a nice option for quick stop to get a bowl of pho to do the job while doing errands, but not to trek 25 minutes out of the way for.

No-frills pho, banh mi, Vietnamese coffee, and other specialties in a small but comfy, friendly space with real charm. Vietnamese soap operas play in the TV in the corner while the sounds of pots and pans clanking emanate froM the kitchen in the back. If you dont speak Vietnamese, you may have to oRder by point Iing to pictures on the walls. But the proprietor is friendly and patient!

4 stars for the banh mi, 3 stars for the pho. The banh mi is SO GOOD. The baguette is flaky, there's a good meat to veggie ratio, and it just melts in your mouth. I got the banh mi thit nuong (grilled pork banh mi) and I think about that meal alllll the time. It was only around $3 too!! A steal for Vietnamese food in Nashville. The pho didn't leave a good impression. It didn't really leave an impression at all. I didn't think the broth was as flavorful as it sound be (it was a little sweet) and even tasted slightly watered down. But it was good to kick any cravings, and the side of banh mi made it 10x better. Definitely want to come back and try their boba!

Very authentic Vietnamese food! Banh Mi is great! Don't forget to try Sugar Cane juice, Vietnamese egg tarts (this one is crazily good), and Pho!! And their roasted duck is out of this world!
