Mi Li Cafe

One of the most authentic Vietnamese restaurants we have in Columbus, Ohio. I ordered the banh mi, Vietnamese coffee, and hu tieu, and everything was absolutely delicious. You can truly taste the authenticity in every dish. They were very busy, which just shows how loved this place is, but the staff was incredibly sweet, welcoming, and attentive. If you’re looking for real Vietnamese flavors done right, this spot is a must-visit.

Had pho and banh mi here. Excellent pho! Broth was delicious. They had culantro with the vegetables which was a new one for me (no that's not cilantro) but it was delicious. Fried wontons were hot and delicious and the banh mis were incredible, primarily the bread. Bread was phenomenally crisp and crunchy and the fillings were standard but still good. I've had similar fillings at other Vietnamese restaurants but the bread here is by far the best I've ever had. And you can order the bread by itself either in store or to go!

I recently visited this Vietnamese restaurant and I have to say the food is absolutely delicious. The pho was rich, flavourful, and perfectly seasoned. You can really taste the care in the broth. The chicken sandwich was also amazing fresh, well-balanced, and full of flavour. The ambience may not be the best or most stylish, but honestly, once the food arrives, you won’t even care. The quality and taste truly speak for themselves. If you’re coming for incredible Vietnamese food, this place is definitely worth it.

Placed an order for carry out pho on a Sunday afternoon and it was ready in 10 min. Very authentic Vietnamese food, everyone in the back was asian (which is generally a great sign) and several parties of other Asians walked in at the same time as myself (which is double whammy guaranteed authentic good food)… and it was exactly that. Good portions, reasonable pricing, authentic, broth was a little on the sweeter side but still really good. Will be back.

Food has been consistent. Got the pho dac biet and banh mi. Pho was hot and tastes very well. And the banh mi was just the right amount of pate and flavor to the sub. Has the right amount of toast. Been coming here for almost a decade. Will return for more!

14 dollars for 6 small pieces of fatty pork. This was the grilled pork dish. Im just kind of speechless. For such a cheap dish with only rice and with the cheapest cut of meat this is what you get. Terrible. Definitely won't be back here theres many other better options for Vietnamese.

10/10! Everything was excellent. We got the Pho Dac Biet, egg rolls, bahn mi and ice coffee. I've had Houng's, Tai's, Paris Bahn Mi, and GC Pho. This place is the best IMO. Broth was flavorful, I love the tendon and culantro as a topping. The egg roll filling was so good. It was pretty busy but service was still fast, friendly and efficient. Can't wait to go back!!

Pho was good, especially the beef broth. We will certainly return here. I returned yesterday, even better this time. We tried the shrimp spring rolls and they were also great. My son had the sandwich also excellent.

We stopped in for a hot bowl of soup (weirdly amazing on a very hot July day!) It was very quiet, but we never mind. We are always treated kindly and the soups are always amazing. This is a no-frills sort of space, but just exactly the kind of comfort I love. Not fussy or pretentious. It always feels to me a bit like eating in humble spots overseas. I got pho with steak (like always) and an iced coffee. It's rocket fuel, Vietnamese iced coffee, in the very best way possible. I would drink a gallon of it if I could! Zero complaints. You're going to love what you get and you're going to get full. Try the pho or one of the stews or a bahn mi. Get an iced coffee. Enjoy your meal. Thank the ladies and gents who cooked and served your meal. It's always money well-spent to me!

Review: Bò Kho (Menu #29) - I Tried, But I Just Couldn't Get Jiggy With It I walked into this experience knowing bò kho wasn't going to be the beef stew I grew up with--I was ready for that. I've been to Mi Li Café plenty of times, and their pho is consistently delicious. Over time, I've switched to chicken (and even considered shrimp) because some of the other proteins have taken me on unexpected textural journeys. But today, feeling bold, I decided to give Menu Item #29: Beef Stew with French Bread a shot. I knew it would be different--just not this different. Service Expectations: The Dice Roll Before we even get to the food, let's talk about service expectations because, depending on who you get, it's a completely different experience. You either get someone who can code switch for your ass--reading you immediately and giving you that warm, slightly Americanized hospitality--or you're getting the "hurry up and buy" experience where your order is taken with the kind of efficiency that makes you question if you're even supposed to be dining in. Today, I got the "hurry up and buy" service. No greeting, no small talk--just a quick "What you want?" and an expectation that I knew my answer immediately. No problem. I thought I knew what I wanted. The Broth: A Textural Surprise My brain had read the description of the menu item, and I felt confident that I didn't need to question the broth. But when my bowl arrived, the texture caught me off guard. It had that silky, collagen-rich consistency that comes from long-simmered proteins and bones. Not bad, just different. I took a few more sips, trying to adjust, but I quickly realized I needed reinforcements. The French Bread: My Only Lifeline Enter the French bread. Now, this? Absolutely flawless. The same crispy, golden bread they use for their Vietnamese subs (which, by the way, Menu #7 is great). I figured dunking it into the broth might be my saving grace, and honestly? It helped. The bread softened just enough to carry the flavors, making the broth a little more approachable. For a moment, I thought I might have figured it out. The Beef: A Mystery I Wasn't Ready to Solve But then, we got to the beef. And listen--I wasn't brave enough to dive in. I took one look at what was floating in my bowl, and it took one look back at me. Everything about the beef was a mystery I wasn't prepared to solve. Some pieces looked tender. Others had a texture that made me hesitate. I poked at it like I was analyzing a crime scene, but ultimately, I had to respectfully decline this cultural experience. My Failed Attempt at Fixing It Determined to salvage the situation, I called myself doctoring up the stew with their chili oil and garlic sauce, which I know to be delicious. But instead of saving the dish, I somehow made it worse. The broth, already unfamiliar, was now spicy, garlicky, and aggressively overwhelming--a hot mess, both literally and figuratively. At this point, I had no choice but to accept defeat. The Check: A Waffle House Moment Now, before today, I have never questioned my bill total at this spot. But today? My server rang me up and added a whole extra dollar to what was listed on the menu. No explanation, no itemized breakdown--just vibes. It felt a little like Waffle House, where you just pay whatever total they tell you because questioning it might get you banned. And honestly? I wasn't in the mood to argue over a dollar. I just paid and left, slightly confused but fully humbled. Final Thoughts So, bò kho, I respect you. I see what you were trying to do. But no matter how much I dunked, mixed, or seasoned, we just weren't meant to be. Maybe one day I'll be ready, but today was not that day. Until then, I'll stick to my chicken pho--or Menu #7, because that sandwich has never let me down. Final Rating: 3 stars for the stew (I take full responsibility for not being built for this). 5 stars for the bread (perfection). 1 star deducted for my overconfidence in the power of condiments. Bonus half-star for the Waffle House-style mystery tax, because at least it gave me a laugh.

Amazing atmosphere and food a great place to enjoy time with your family and friends . The Pho is the best

Easily the best pho place in Columbus with a very homey/hole in the wall vibe. Food came out super quick, and was piping hot. Definitely felt like the food was "made with love". Also really appreciate that the staff was present but didn't constantly/over check in.

My favorite Vietnamese joint in Central Ohio. I always order the XL bowl (NO tripe) and it is the biggest Pho bowl around. Always fresh, meat is good and the meatballs they use are EXCELLENT. The summer rolls are also very good & have large shrimp in them. I am not a huge fan of this area any longer & definitely recommend going while the sun is still out. The decor is lacking & the bathrooms definitely need major attention. Service, also can be lacking quite a bit, with no one checking for a drink refill. The refill issue keeps this from being a five star.

Best Pho in Columbus. Hubby has Bah mi sandwich and I had beef pho. We also tried the egg rolls. Those were the bomb!!

Mi Li has definitely been a bit if a surprise Vietnamese restaurant. Coming from LA and spending quite a but of time out in Westminster, I've been very spoiled by Viet food. Mi Li definitely is a good reminder of what I have back home. The restaurant is casual and unassuming but staff is always very pleasant and patient. You'll hear a mix of Viet and Cantonese for those familiar with either language. Food wise, I've enjoyed the pho and beef stew here. Pho broth is flavorful and beef parts are cooked well to go along with it. The star for me here has been the banh mi. The bread is so perfectly crisp and light, the pate flavorful, the herbs and daikon/carrot fresh and bright. It def rivals my favorite banh mi spot back in LA. I'd highly recommend anyone to come out here to get a Viet fix. Or if Viet food is new to you, try a banh mi and some pho, it'll be great for the soul and stomach!

I'm usually a Huong girl when it comes to Vietnamese food in Columbus but I've heard such good things about this place & it's close to my job. I ordered the Shrimp Pho in large & the salted lemonade. I've never left a Vietnamese place hungry. They are known for nice portions when it comes to pho. I ordered the large since it was a dollar more & this way I would have some left for tomorrow's lunch. If this is the large, I don't want to know what the regular is like. I was disappointed in the small amount or broth & noodles in the order as well. 7 shrimp came in the order. Overall the flavor was good but I wasn't blown away. The salted lemonade is not something I would get again but I wanted to be adventurous & try something fun. It tastes like an alkaseltzer tablet dropped in your drink. It's supposed to be very good for you & healing to the gut. I will not be ruling this place out. I will give them another chance, especially for dine in. There are quite a few things in the menu I'd like to get next. Update coming soon!

I'm happy I got to try Mi Li Cafe because their pho lived up to the hype. I got the pho with cooked beef and it came with a good amount of meat. The broth had a deep flavor to it and had lots of onions and scallions. I would definitely ask for more cilantro if you like it. I also added some spicy pepper sauce which added a kick. The grilled pork bahn mi was also very tasty with marinated pork and fresh veggies. The size is not that big but taste wise it was good. Their iced French coffee was really refreshing! It has a strong coffee flavor and I appreciated how it wasn't too sweet. The restaurant itself was bigger than I thought and had a decent amount of seating, which filled up quickly. Luckily they were able to accommodate our group although service did feel a bit rushed because they were busy. The only other downside to the experience was that there was a strand hair in two of our dishes, but they did apologize for it. I don't believe it's a regular occurrence.

We've been here do so many years. Love it so much! The food was always great and the service was amazing. When we don't know what to eat, just come to Mili and they will feed us great!

We have been coming here for Pho for a few years now. It is a humble little place that appears to be family run by some nice folks. Service is consistently good. There are other Vietnamese restaurants around Columbus that serve Pho, but we are too satisfied with Mi Li to shop around.

Very fast service, delicious authentic Phó and summer rolls. I highly recommend. Happy tummy!

Always great and consistent! Our FAVE Pho spot! Never disappointed. We get takeout a couple times a month, especially when it is cold.

The food was just okay for me. Spring rolls 4/5, bun Bo hue 2/5-just not for me, pho dac biet 3/5- I've just tasted better. The portions are huge! I love how large their extra large bowl was. The ambience was nice and family friendly. The service is pretty good too. I love all the condiments available on the table.

Absolutely delicious, no frills, authentic pho! Prompt service. Try the French coffee!

i got my sandwich without jalapeños and cucumber, and i liked it! good lunch-sized portion. If anything I would have wanted some more pâté and sauce because it felt a bit dry, but otherwise pretty good. Overall nice family owned spot

Best banh mi in Columbus for sure. Ive been to every vietnamese restaurant in the area and the flavor of Mi Li banh mi is unmatched. Great service too.

The pho was amazing great service. Mom and pops small but it was a gem. Traveling for work and needed a home cooked meal. The food is authentic.

Lots of great food. Most staff struggles with English. Try the Pho soup. Just point at the numbers.

This little spot is my go to when I am looking for that home cooking. They know my Oder and it always comes out wonderful! The servers are always so attentive to what you need or at least they try to accommodate as much as they can. The place has been there so long that it' just feels like home. It's like sitting in your mom's kitchen. The ambiance is always very pleasant. Highly recommend everything.

Very homie! It's so cold outside so my husband wanted to get some pho, we usually go to our spot in Hilliard but he found this place that a lot closer to us. He got Banh Mi, Pho and Iced coffee. Everything was good and they offered so many kind of chilli sauce. He ate them all! The only thing that be complaint was, it's too small... it wasn't enough I got grilled pork with rice, I saw the picture that it came with egg but actually it doesn't, you probably need to pay extra on that. The pork was good, I really like the lemongrass or whatever herb they used for marinate the pork.... and yes, it's too small for me too, I need more pork! The service was nice, the restaurant was clean. We will go back and I will get the same thing with extra pork!

The food was amazing. I got the Pho Ga and the Chicken Summer Roll. The broth was amazing and had a depth of flavor. The chicken roll came with this amazing peanut sauce and tasted homemade. And the chili oils were fantastic! Service was good and fast!

Delicious but small portions...but i am healthy fella lol. I had the pork bahn mi and combo rice plate and my wife had shrimp pho and same kind bahn mi.

Fantastic. Amazing Vietnamese subs, fantastic service, incredible spring rolls. Me and my boyfriend left feeling full and happy!

I've made this a regular stop for me! I usually get the cold cut pork sandwich with a taro bubble tea. I spend around $16! Great food! Great service! Everyone is always so kind everything is made fresh. It's definitely a family business feel!

Food is amazing and authentic. My favorite Pho in Columbus. I've loved everything I've ever ordered.

Long time no Bun Bo Hue. I think a lot of people is more familiar with Pho within the Vietnamese noodles soup family. I love Pho too, but I have to give my favorite to Bun Bo Hue. There is a couple places in Columbus that make decent Bun Bo Hue and Mi Li Café would definitely be one. The broth itself is packed with lemongrass flavor and the umami from the fish sauce and shrimp paste. Along with some heat from the chili paste. All the noodles and toppings just get infused with this broth. I also got the egg rolls and they are super good. Their version is filled with mashed taro along with some ground pork.

Really like Mi Li Cafe. Usually get the number 15. I like how they have sauces at the table to customize Pho or any dish. Everything is reasonably priced and service is quick

Stopping in at mi li cafe before continuing errands. I'm hungry and crave pho tai and goi cuon :). Live review, I'll post pics when they arrive. As always, I love the free water. :) There's nothing like a bowl of hot pho to warm you up on a cold winters day, and these folks never disappoint. Just a touch of hoisín sauce in the broth, and the accompanying mint leaves and bean sprouts, makes for a delicious bowl of soup that you can still sip when the bowl is free of that pesky stuff like rice noodles Which is what I'm doing now I Highly recommend Mili to anyone interested in authentic Vietnamese food!!

Very authentic food, so close to what I used to eat in my hometown. There's only dried wonton or dried char siu noodle in the menu but the lady was willing to make me dried wonton & char siu noodles which was so good. My husband had his Special pho was great too.

Great pho! This spot is apparently here to feed the local Vietnamese community since it became quite busy while I enjoyed my late night dinner. I was the only Caucasian and didn't understand any of the gossip that was taking place all around me. My pho Tia nam was excellent!

We discovered this place years ago during a Columbus Food Adventures tour. Their Bahn Mi is top-notch and the Pho is irresistible. We hardly try anything else on the menu because these two items are so delicious!

AMAZING FOOD! The BEST pho restaurant in the city of Columbus! I Love this place! Excellent customer service.

Have been a patron of Mi Li as long as I remember. The reason, there is no other place that serves the Pho with broth that is authentic. My favorite is their rare steak served with tendons. Service is prompt with many other choices to choose from, especially their grilled Bhan-Mi. It goes well with mid size Pho. The cafe is not very spacious, however, I have seen them accommodate large party by quickly arranging and accommodating for their guests.

This place isn't too well-known but has the best Vietnamese food. I got their soupless egg noodles, which isn't a common dish but is very authentic. It has seasoning and sauce in it as well with a side of dipping soup. Tip: make a side dipping sauce container with soy sauce and vinegar. I got the extra large one and I ate it all, but then again I was very hungry! I also got the avocado smoothie with tapioca -- it's a mixture of powder and real avocado, would still get again

We tried three items on the menu - the Bun Bo Hue being the best of the three (hence the 4 stars) the Bun Bo hue shined brightly from the delicious broth to the toppings- the other two dishes could use some improvements- especially the pho broth (it wasn't that flavorful) the grilled meat (the cut of meat was too fatty) overall we enjoyed it but I didn't like the environment (talking about the customer in Vietnamese (btw I'm fluent in Vietnamese- not cool)

As a Vietnamese person who grew up eating a lot of Vietnamese food, I am always willing to give an honest review. I have been here about 8 times over the past few years. When you first walk in, it's a clean place, but nothing fancy which is what I appreciate! They focus more on the food than the aesthetics which is similar to most joints in Vietnam. We came for lunch on a Sunday afternoon and were seated right away. I ordered a grilled pork banh mi and a wonton soup with egg noodles. My friends ordered the bo kho and a pho dac biet which I have had personally before! The waitress brought our waters instantly and took our orders not too long after. Our food came out in about 10 to 15 minutes. I enjoyed my wonton soup with egg noodles. The broth was good and had the right flavors, but I personally think it was missing an OOMPH of flavor to it. I thought the same thing about the bo kho and the pho. On the other hand, my friend said he appreciated the clean taste of the broths Mi Li has whereas I am used to a punch to the face with flavor. With that being said, I do think the broths for their soups is the correct flavor. I appreciated the pork wontons in my soup. The egg noodles were chewy! That's always a plus :) The banh mi was alright in my personal opinion. The bread was crispy, which is how it's supposed to be! The pork was dry and there was not enough of the house made mayo to balance out the dryness. Their pickled radish and carrots were good! I do think the banh mi could use more cucumber to it since it was a little more dry. I have had their desserts and Vietnamese coffee also. Their dessert (che Ba mau) was too sweet for me and had a little bit too much coconut. The Vietnamese coffee does not come out as a drip coffee which is slightly disappointing. The flavors are good, but there isn't a strong flavor profile to the coffee itself, which is what makes a Vietnamese coffee special. My two friends agreed also that the coffee is lacking flavor. I guess it tastes watered down is how I can word it. Overall, I like a punch of flavors, but if you like a "cleaner" taste then you'll really enjoy Mi Li! I will still be coming back :)

This is one of the most legit authentic soup shops I've had the pleasure of tasting. Just 20min outside of Columbus, in an unassuming strip mall, lies this gem in hiding. Two steps from the door, the smell of a star anise and sweet beef broth sends a fist to the olefactory nerves in your brain, jaring you into home, sweet sweet comfort food. I am going to plant this flag, the Banh mi, #6 classic, is the best in Ohio. Period end of story. The freshly baked roll, encapsulates and delivers a chewy wheat, with warm buttery creamy pate, accentuated by tender pork slices, crunchy pickled radish, with cherry on top cilantro and jalapenos. The pho beef #11 is also solid. The highlights are the meat balls that are seasoned with a black pepper, and perfectly cooked noodles. The beef slices add needed chewy texture but melt in your mouth. It's a refreshing but hearty, salty but sweet, bitter and yet balance by the sour lime juice. If you have the time come to this gem! High moderate complexity. Wu score: Would drive 1-2 hours

Overall it is a good Vietnamese restaurant! The price was reasonable and the food was tasty! The service was fast too. My friends and I didn't need to wait too long for the food to come out. I enjoyed beef stew, pho broth, and Thai bubble tea~ but for the sandwich, the size was much smaller than what I expected.

Excellent food. Family owned restaurant. You can tell they care about what they cook. My husband and I both got small bowls, but the portion were huge! So good! Looking forward to going back soon.

i like em ! they're a solid vietnamese place and wished i coulda came here for often. precovid (2019 indoor review) from my recollection, this place is not really near like dt so i actually appreciate them making vietnamese food more accessible by somewhere else in the city. the customer service were so kind and caring. like they were really friendly and kind to us and the food took not that long to come and i loveeee that. the food is solid and rocked and great portions ofc. the vermicelli was my companions but i think they liked it while my chicken pho was respectfully very bussin. i'd recommend as it's on the same to similar quality compared of buckeye pho, huong, indochine, etc.

Owned by Mi Li Vanilli, who wrote this about them: Giving all the love you feel for food Couldn't make you change your order, boo You're eatin' Now I'm sittin' here, watchin' you eat I just don't know what I should do It's a tragedy for me to see the Banh Mi is over And I never will forget the cafe where we met Mi Li, I'm gonna miss you... What to get: Banh Mi What not to get: Rabies from my cats So if you should ask "What's the Dilly? Are there good sandwiches outside Philly?" Well yes, as a matter Of fact, there's a better Banh Mi in Columbus, at Mi Li! This was the second stop on my bubble tea tour, and it was a truly spectacular Vietnamese restaurant which had one of the most enjoyable Banh Mis I've ever had... And definitely the spiciest Banh Mi I've ever had! I didn't see that coming because it's Columbus OH, so I thought it was going to be some kind of hipster version or anglicized version or something. But no. It was absolutely amazing. It's a very authentic little place and the people here are extraordinarily friendly. I enjoyed every bite of my food and all the attention that the servers were giving me LOL. The Vietnamese iced coffee was very strong and very delicious and just what I needed, but the tapioca that I added to it was pretty awful and squidgy so I have to remember never to get the tapioca again and just stick to the coffee next time. It's pretty sweet but absolutely delicious. Barbie would love it. And you would love her. So well done Columbus. You got this place absolutely right. You won't spend a Mi Li on dollars to get this sandwich, but you can make a whole Meal Li out of it, and maybe it'll make up for the fact that your latest Tinder date said he had 9 inches, but it turned out to be 9 Mi Li metres.

Service was lovely. Very very polite and kind. The food was pretty good. I would say not my favorite pho or bahn mi in Columbus but definitely quite tasty and authentic - it's more a reflection on my personal taste than on the food. The food was good.

Just happened to stumble on this restaurant. It's situated in a place where I don't usually go however, my husband and I had a taste for Pho Soup. We ordered Beef Pho and Thai Bubble Tea and they are delicious. The pho liquid is salted just right to taste, the noodles are aldante cooked . All the condiments ( mint leaves, bean sprouts, jalapeño, chili sauce) are the freshest. The price is cheaper than the other pho restaurants we had been to. I gave 4 stars because of the restaurant interior. The tables and chairs could have been more comfortable and the wall itself could have been more inviting or decorated.

Wow wow wow!!!! I am ALWAYS looking for little places like these. I love Pho and Bahn Mi and will seek out places that claim to make good ones. I got to try both at this location and I'll already planning a second trip back. Everything was tasty beyond belief! Pho was so fresh, and seasoned, and a huge portion to boot. Bahn mi had a lot of meat, lots of veggies, and the bread was perfectly toasted. Crispy on the outside and spongy on the inside. The place is small and has limited seating due to Covid but it hasn't seemed to hurt their take out game. There were probably 10 orders taken to go while I ate there. These are the little places I love to support and see do well.

I came in during their lunch rush with my husband and ran into some friends there and spoke to them for a moment. The workers were giving us dirty looks. They didn't seem happy about me speaking to others. We ordered some subs for our meal. The portion was SMALL. It was overpriced for the amount they gave us. I was planning to order something else to our meal, but the server was quick to give us a check trying to rush us out of there. Overall, I won't be going back there again because they were rude and not once did they come check on how the meal was. They were worrying more about flipping the tables to make more money. By the time we were leaving, the lunch rush was over. That was unnecessary in how they treated us.

Mi Li is my go to for Vietnamese. Each time I have visited, gotten take out, or received delivery via a service the food has been great. This place has became where I go over Buckeye Pho as it's fresh, delicious, and very affordable. Mi Li is always incredibly lively. The staff are always a buzz and very attentive. You can also see into part of the kitchen which, I always love as you can see the magic happening. I appreciate the simplistic presentation of the food and the solid flavors that are presented in the pho broth. The meatballs are balanced and the meat in the ph has always been fresh, tender, & palatable. The báhn mì's French bread is soft inside with a crisp crunch when bitten into, perfectly suited to their toppings, and have alway been fresh. The bún noodle dishes are presented with the vinegar that brings them together and the shrimp I have gotten has been fresh and not overcooked. If you order pho you get a sizable amount of bean sprouts, basil, culantro, fresh chiles, and lime. The aromatics have always been fresh. Oh! On the table you'll find things like hoisin sauce & sriracha which are whatever. You don't need those. Go for the (likely) house made (fermented) pepper paste. It's in the round clear container with the lid. Just spoon some on to your food, it's perfect. That's what you need to elevate the home made broth of your pho, báhn mì, bún, fresh spring rolls, or whatever else you might get. Go get some food at Mi Li Cafe. And don't forget to top your meal off with some delicious Thai tea or a càfê sa nóng (hot French coffee with sweetened condensed milk).

Outstanding. Loved the man who served and seated me. Had Hue style noodles And a cold pork banh that was also good. I will say that the women working there don't seem very happy

I've been meaning to come here, but it's kinda out of my way. Was this on High Street a few years ago? I think I went to it then. Anyway, yesterday I really wanted Vietnamese food, and was eager to try out Dang Coffee. Sadly, it was closed, and it seems to be for good. I remembered Mi Li and swung over. Busy at 2pm on a weekday. Nothing fancy inside, but clean and bright. Pretty typical menu. Too hot out for pho, so I got bun and banh (mi.) Okay, none of that quite rhymes, sorry. I started with a Thai iced tea. Turned out to be bubble tea, which I realized as something solid came up the straw. Unexpected, but good. Then they brought the noodles: tons of rice noodles, perfectly cooked, with steak and a spring roll, and veggies (#24.) Tasty steak, very good spring roll, super fresh veggies. I loved it. Gussied it up a bit with fish sauce, sriracha, and hoisin. The banh mi (#7, grilled pork,) was small but amazing. Great bun, great meat, great veggies. That was a little too much food, but I wanted to try several things, and the banh mi on its own was a little too small for me for lunch. Good service, good prices, great food. I'll be back, I'm sure, for the pho and more.
