So, there I was, strolling to Kroger like a seasoned bargain hunter, when suddenly, BB Bistro caught my eye. With my lunch break now becoming a mini-adventure, I couldn't resist the temptation of trying something new, especially when it involved a good ol' banh mi sandwich! 😋
I got the spicy "crackling pork + a Island tea. The flavor of the sandwich took me by surprise and I was pleasantly impressed. Adding hot sauce made things even spicer. The tea however tasted like tropical soap, I wasn't a fan but I loved the cup. All in all I plan on coming back and trying other things and Ill maybe ask for a recommended tea. 🥪☕
My experience at BB Bistro was a positive one. The flavor of the crackling pork banh mi sandwich was outstanding and exceeded my expectations. The combination of tender pork and the spiciness made for a truly delicious meal. Although I didn't enjoy the taste of the Island tea, [coughtasted like tropical soapcough], I wasn't a fan but I appreciated the unique cup it came in and would be open to trying a recommended tea option on my next visit.
The atmosphere of the restaurant was cool and relaxed. When we first arrived, there weren't many people, but as we were enjoying our food, more customers started to come in. It seems like BB Bistro experiences a lunch rush between 12 to 2, which is understandable considering the quality of their food.
I am definitely planning to return to BB Bistro to explore their other menu items. You have to experience the exceptional flavor of the banh mi sandwich; this alone has made me curious about what other delicious options they have to offer. I'm also interested in trying a different tea, hopefully one that suits my taste buds better. 😑 Overall, BB Bistro has left a positive impression on me with their flavorful food and inviting atmosphere. It's a great place for a quick and satisfying meal, especially for those looking to try something different from the usual...
Read morePeople are too quick to give 5s. I try to compare to all the other restaurants I have been to in the style of food. The food was good but lacked the depth of flavor.
The restaurant is new and I am glad to have them in the area.
We tried the traditional Ban MI, spring rolls, box with pork vermicelli, box with rice and tofu, egg rolls.
Banh MI - fresh baked bread. Excellent. The stuffing was good but nothing exciting. I wouldn't get it again. Will try something else
Pork Vermicelli - All good. Nice mix of vegetables. Pork well done. Sadly, the fish sauce did not have much flavor.
Get rolls - This was the worst part of the meal. They tasted like they were mass produced (of the frozen variety).
Spring Roll - Very good hand rolled. Peanut sauce not so much.
My wife very much liked her tofu /rice.
We will go back. I hope they improve their sauces and they are closer to my favorite Vietnamese restaurant ......
Read moreI have become simply obsessed with Banh mi and anytime I spot a location with great reviews already, it's a must try.
This location is in the Kroger shopping strip on west little York and Eldridge. Plenty of dine in space but they also work with Uber eats and doordash. Mobil payment friendly with a great Vietnamese menu selection.
Service was quick, store front was clean and very cute! I ordered two sandwiches, beef and crackling pork for my daughter. Did not disappoint! I thought the carrots were a tad sweet but I would definitely have it again. They have several tea and boba options as well. Pricing was relative to other shops I've been to. Between $6-8 per sandwich.
I live in the area so will be back and...
