Khanh Hoa - Winnipeg, Manitoba

I tried both the cold cut and the pork meatball sandwiches yesterday and both were exceptional! The pork meatballs literally melted in your mouth, so good! Simply the best banh mi sandwiches I've ever tasted. You have to eat here!

Best banh mi in Winnipeg. You’re unlikely to find a better one anywhere else outside of Vietnam. The new owners have retained the same quality from the original location.

Excellent banh mi~! Definitely some of the best you can get in the city (an opinion you might find corroborated on the news - though I don’t think I’d recommend making a special trip. Also beware they seem to sell out rather early in the day and it took three ... tries to catch them open with sandwiches). The combination of pickled vegetables, sweet carrots, refreshing cilantro, savory meat, rich sauce, and spice on a fresh bun come together as a symphony of flavor. Cold cut is the recommended protein option. The location is a bit inconvenient and the interior spartan, but it’s about the food, right? Banh Mi Khanh Hoa is definitely worth trying if you’re looking for good banh mi! Read more

Didn't Measure Up to All the Hype Checked out this place based on all the positive reviews online while visiting Winnipeg Food Bread unremarkable, very crumby, I forgot to ask them to not toast it as per the recommendation of several reviewers online Nothing mind-blowing about the topping combination Appreciated the cilantro and pickled carrots; ... would have preferred a more intense tasting pickle; liked the addition of chilis for heat; however, they weren't evenly spread; I got some in my first and last bite Conclusion The sandwich was OK but not good enough for me to return if I found myself in the city again in the future.

Khanh Hoa My fiancé and I have been going to khanh hoa since they opened on Notre Dame. Their banh mi’s are one of the best we have tried. We have spoken very highly of this place and have had people come try as well. In the last two years it ... has been quite frustrating. We would travel across the city for these banh mi’s only to find out the restaurant is closed. No warning online or on their Facebook page. Always just a handwritten sign on their door. We have let it go and thought well it’s a small local business and maybe they had to close for an emergency. After about our 3rd attempt and the restaurant was closed we started calling before going. It’s not difficult to update your status online. The other issue we have is the customer service. It’s definitely not a welcoming place to enter. Most of the time I’m not acknowledged. I usually go up to the counter and start talking as I feel I’m being ignored. If they are that busy a simple hello I’ll be right with you would be nice. A little while ago they were closed for a few weeks/mths. When they reopened the price of the sandwiches went up. We thought that’s fair, everything else has gone up that makes sense. We ordered our regular sandwiches and found out they have put less meat in their subs! So you increase the price and take away some meat? That doesn’t look good. Increase the price to help offset your grocery cost but don’t increase and take away from the quality of the sandwich. That feels more of something sneaky to do in hopes no one will notice. The topper that made us decide not to continue with going to Khanh hoa is their machine didn’t work. So they had me etransfer money to them. They see me send it but made me wait for 10mins before I can leave. No offer of anything for the inconvenience or the fact that they didn’t trust me when I sent the money. We get home saying ok let’s maybe not go anymore with all the negative experiences we have had over the last couple of years. As we are about to eat, our sandwiches are burnt! We are done. Read more
