This place is a gem. It is the ONLY BANH MI & VIETNAMESE JUICE/COFFEE place for a 230 + mile radius all around !
I got their sugarcane juice, pho, beef curry with banh mi, and banh mi dac biet all of which were very delicious & authentic tasting. The owners moved from the San Gabriel Valley in CA to start their restaurant businesses here. I moved to Cruces from the SGV, and drive out to EP to get my Vietnamese food fixes every month. If you know, you know. SGV is basically the Asia of Los Angeles County.
They are truly filling a void here in El Paso, and I'm so happy to have a banh mi shop I can go to now if Im in the area. Their prices are very reasonable, and def cheaper than a lot of other Vietnamese places around.
I can't wait to try the rest of their menu ! Def recommend this place...
Read moreThis place is legit. I am Vietnamese, currently living in Arizona. I've had banh mi and pho in California, Washington, Arizona, and even in vietnam. I had pho at least over 10,000 times, 2,000 of which are from restaurants.
This place is easily in my top 5 pho/banh mi places I've ever been too. It even beats the one in Vietnam.
I don't know how to put it into words... the pho broth is super flavorful, the meat is INSANE, it melts in your mouth and does not feel "dry", it is very soft. The portions?? INSANE. For only $13 for pho, you can easily feed two people. The banh mi? You can feed three kids with it.
Hands down one of the best pho in Texas, well... because I've been to 5 other places in Texas since visiting and they can't compete with this place.
I just wish they were in...
Read moreSo good! The bread, has a delicate crunch, but very fluffy on the inside. The flavors aren't overpowering each other, and you can get all the flavors from the ingredients- meat, jalapeno, picked veggies, pate, bread, etc., in each bite! Had to come 2 days in a row because we couldn't get over the bread!
I saw reviews complaining about price, but i think the price is really great. Especially for a smaller business! I'm from CA, where we have bahn mi shops and chained shops left and right, and they offer prices that are better than the chains! It's not easy offering Asian foods in a city where it's predominately another culture, especially with getting ingredients. But with them making everything in shop, you don't...
