The Bánh Mì Shop — Restaurant in Bellevue

I already knew that I enjoyed the food and service at the Bánh Mì Shop, but when we went to celebrate their 1 year anniversary we found out that they have the best smoothies! I had the pineapple and my daughter had the mango and they were both delicious.

Another thing that I found was that they have a really good soup as well. Though I won't eat it because it has beans, I did sample some of my wife's and the flavor was excellent! Give it a try if you stop in. There was fresh out ther I've bread that came with it too.

The sandwiches are always great! It might take a bit to get used to the crunchiness of it, but once you do the sandwich is gone before you even know it. The fresh vegetables compliment one another so well. You have the choice of a handful of toppings that is also recommend trying. Shallots, hoisin, siracha and more. I was most surprised buy how good the peanuts go with the sandwich. I was a little hesitant to add them, but I thought "What the heck?!" Definitely will do that again. Wonderful flavor all over!

Chloe, the owner, is awesome and I wish her...

Updated 4/18/19. Got a Tai Tea and a Jasmin Green Tea with Milk cap. They were on point. The cream cap was excellent, similar to the ones I tried in California. The teas were not too sweet as I like them.

— Delicious sandwich and drinks with minor twists needed. They excelled at the key things: great taste and customer service. The drink service was fast, however the sandwiches took a bit. Based on my observation, the bottleneck occurred at the toaster. Maybe at a later time they could replace the home toaster with a commercial one (Craigslist has some). Additionally, speed could be improved by using the assembly line method were employees are assigned specific tasks vs bouncing around (they can rotate task so is not mind numbing). Now to the sandwich: The bread was on point, light with a crunchy crust and a soft and slight chewy inside. The toppings are a well balanced mixture of texture and flavor. Sweet and sour from the hoisin sauce and picked carrot/daikon. Savory from the meat and pate and don’t skip the egg. Glad to see them open...

This is a hidden gem in Bellevue. Prices are fantastic ranging from a low of $3.95 to a high of $5.25 for their sandwiches Their bubble tea is also prixed well with a large at $3.95.

They have milk tea and not the generic Americanized slush version, plus different options of boba and not just the tapioca pearls. I should say they have a huge variety. The only problem is their tea is very very weak in comparison to other places I've been (I haven't been to Omaha but I have been to Vancouver and Winnipeg recently). If you like a weak tea then it's ok, but I find it is more like a watered down version here.

I went with the lemongrass pork sandwich which was delicious.

Decor is very hipster (clean and modern), but pricing is exceptionally reasonable.

Service was fine.

Everything we tasted was great. Couldn't really find anything to complain about so will be happy to return at any time.

I read the reviews about a stamp card but we did not receive one when we went. I think I did receive one at one point but on my most recent visit...
