Bánh Mi Très Bon - Richmond, British Columbia

Came in with some colleagues. I got the chicken salad roll and chicken vermicelli bowl. The portions were good, very filling I had leftovers. The flavour was lacking, food was very bland. Inside the restaurant its cute, and the service was good too. Presentation of the food was very nice

Extremely Disappointing Experience I had heard so much hype about this restaurant, but our recent visit left me thoroughly unimpressed!! I ordered their signature bone marrow pho, expecting a burst of authentic Vietnamese flavors. Instead, what I got was extremely salty MSG loaded bowl of broth. i have never tasted such salty ... bowl of pho broth ever in any restaurant, even food court quality pho is not this salty...I told the server and she kindly asked the kitchen to replace a new bowl of pho for me. Then the second bowl, broth tatsted much better, but the beef sliced was tough and chewy, the bone marrow (probably not cooked long enought, still very jello like, and the noodles were mushy and clumped together...i told the server again and asked for no replacement. Also the snack (mini spring roll) was surprisingly MINI, teh dipping sauce tastes very sweet. Partner ordered chicken leg and fried egg rice. The chicken leg was super dry and flavorless, as if it had been fried into oblivion before being thrown onto the plate... Environment was ok, the interior is stuffed with many decorations, making the space seemed small. Also they have a few type of dining chairs in the restaurant, some are shorter than others, making a weired height with the table. Also, I dont really like their chopsticks, its made of wood and probably been used for a while, the wood starts to flake out. Just dont like to imagine that it been soaked in many bowls of pho, in people's mouth and soap many times... Finally let's not forget about the prices!! They charges PREMIUM prices for what can only be described as subpar fare. And not to mention they set their credit card machines minimum tip percentage 18%, though their food, service, and environment of this dining experience is far below what they thought they deserve. In conclusion, it is definitely an unforgettable experience that I wouldn't wish upon my worst enemy.

Cute little place. Love the piano they have. The service was nice. The food was ok. The Bahn mi bread was good and not dry. Didn't really care for the pho. The texture of the crepes was mushy on the inside and crispy on the outside. Flavors was a bit ... lighter. The shrimp dumpling was ok. Read more

I've been in a couple times food is pretty good really nice atmosphere and good service. Prices are a little on the high side the subs were good but the pho broth was a little underwhelming.

Very disappointing experience. First thing I noticed was our table was dirty (sticky sauce stains all over the table and dried up beansprouts from previous customers). For how expensive their food is, their house special banh mi was very lackluster - 90% veggies, dry bread and really skimped on the ... meat fillings. The butter garlic chicken wings had zero butter or garlic flavor, and was so dark you can tell it was fried in old oil. The only positive aspects were the friendly waitress and pretty christmas decorations. Banh Mi Tres Bon? More like Banh Mi Tres Mauvais. Read more
