Reviews Banh Mi & Ti

The second Vietnamese place I've tried in the city. It was pretty good, although I think I might prefer the other place (Pho and Roll) a tad bit more. Nonetheless, I ordered the vermicelli bowl in the 'pork n roll' style (without lettuce) as well as the black tea mango boba/bubble tea with passion fruit pop boba. The vermicelli noodles were pretty good, and came in a good portion. The price is quite fair for the portion. The carrots were delicious. Very well marinated and the perfect balance of savoriness to sweetness. Crunchy and fresh. The sauce was also pretty good. I will say, it's on the sweet side. Personally, I like my sauces sweeter though, so it wasn't a problem. Decent amount of sauce too. What I wasn't that big of a fan of was, unfortunately, the meat. It was hard and kind of chewy, not tender. Also, the flavor was kind of strange, almost stale-tasting. It didn't take like the maple sugar-flavored meat I thought it was going to be. But, the meat portion was solid. Finally, I thought the boba was really good. I know some people come here just for the boba, and I can see why. It's not overly sweet and has a great flavor. I couldn't really taste the bitterness in the black tea, which is good. Tasted mainly just like mango. And the popping boba is amazing! Soft and easy to pop, great fruity flavor. All in all, a nice spot for Vietnamese sandwiches and bowls. Do not overlook the boba, as that's really good. Fresh and decent prices. Pork isn't the best.

The Bahmi tastes really good. The bread is soft inside! Also, the sauce the use is surprisingly good. I really hope I can have that sauce in my kitchen. The milk tea is also special.

My favorites are the xa xiu and pork n roll! The sauce is very addicting and I love making the extra drive here to pick up some banh mi and milk tea.

One of my favorite places to visit for lunch. I've tried a lot of boba in Pittsburgh and theirs is by far the best. The kimchi is delicious, the banh mi is fresh and full of flavor, and the prices are perfect. Definitely try it here if you've been thinking about it!

This is a really nice place. The staff is super friendly, the food is at a reasonable price and tastes great. I had the classic chicken bowl. It was a little sweet at first but this is characteristic of vietnamese cuisine. I did ask them to out jalepenos and siracha sauce which balanced the sweetness well. For foodies like me who have a palette for more spice you may want to ask for extra siracha and jalepenos. The meat itself was superbly flavorful and well seasoned. Can't wait to go back for more!
