" Oh man, East Side Banh Mi has made a lifetime customer out of me! The pork banh mi was out of this world. The combination of flavors in the sandwich was a perfect storm of deliciousness! I also enjoyed their refreshing blueberry lemonade, which was a fantastic accompaniment. Just a heads-up about seating—it does get crowded, so plan accordingly! " (*Curated Review*)

" tried East Side Banh Mi recently and truly enjoyed the flavors bursting from my sandwich! The fresh ingredients and authentic recipes were apparent. However, I found that the service could vary, as it felt a bit rushed during lunch hour. I'll definitely come back and request their specialty rice bowls since I've heard great things about those, too! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited East Side Banh Mi expecting a great culinary experience, and it didn’t disappoint. The variety of options on the menu was impressive, all while being true to Vietnamese tradition. I particularly loved the unique peanut sauce served with the spring rolls; it was rich and complemented the dishes wonderfully. The only downside was that the restaurant was a bit stuffy inside, but the food absolutely made up for it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious food with a laid-back vibe! The peanut milk was exceptional and the banh mi I tried (the No. 1) was crazy good. They pack in plenty of meat and toppings! I also loved the fresh veggies, which added a nice crunch. Service was great, but the seating can be a bit tight at times. Don't let that fool you; the food more than compensates for the cozy setting! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was thrilled to finally visit East Side Banh Mi. My pork banh mi was packed with flavor, really living up to my expectations. The pickled veggies were fresh and added a wonderful crunch. I also enjoyed their sweet potato side which was a delightful surprise! The only issue was the seating, as it could be limited during peak hours. Regardless, I can’t wait to go back!

" Absolutely loved my experience at East Side Banh Mi! I went for the classic pork banh mi, and it did not disappoint. The ingredients tasted super fresh, and the flavors melded together beautifully. The only minor issue was that the bread was just a tad hard at the crust, but it didn't ruin the sandwich by any means. I will definitely be recommending this place to my friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" The Vietnamese iced coffee at East Side Banh Mi is a revelation! I tried it along with my pork sandwich, which was equally delightful. Every bite of the sandwich showed how fresh the ingredients were. Even though the restaurant is a bit small and can be busy, it adds to its charm. I’ll be returning to explore the menu further without a doubt! " (*Curated Review*)
