First time visiting. Got there right on open. My lunch was freshly made to order. Took only 15 minutes approximately. I had 2 items that were the best sellers. I had Pork Belly with crackling Banh Mi Sandwhich and the Rainbow Fresh Spring Rolls. The spring rolls were fresh and light, perfect summer lunch. Came with a yummy dipping dressing. The pork bun was also tasty- the sauce was sweet but it didn't make me feel ill by the end which was a win! The only gripe probably is being really picky, the pork crackling had parts which were really hard to eat (too hard or chewy) but to be honest that would be hard to maintain perfection. I was a bit guttered to find my classic one I use to have in Australia wasn't on the menu but determined to find something very close. Will definitely be back as there are lots of yummy looking food on the menu. I also had good service. The lady helped me pick when I was unsure recommending both dishes....
Read moreHere's my detailed review of my experience with Banh Mi Craft Vietnamese Restaurant, this is only applied for my takeaway order Stir-Fry Egg Noodles:

Please try the other foods in the menu, they all...
Read moreThis place would seriously be a chance for the best banh mi in New Zealand. It’s the best I’ve ever had for sure. I ordered the pork with crackling and it did not disappoint. Meat was juicy, crackling very crispy. Plenty of it, the sandwich was heavy and wrapped very well. Attention to detail is big here. The staff are very professional while also being warm and lovely. They were so nice to deal with. The sauce was incredible and beat of all, the bread was fresh and crispy. I often see a good banh mi being let down by sub par bread but not this time. 10 out of 10, very impressed!! Also worth mentioning that it was 4:30 on a Tuesday arvo, I ate the sandwich out the front of the shop and saw them serve at least 15 people at this odd hour. Cleary not a hidden secret but well known for their...
