" I suggest trying this spot if you're after authentic Vietnamese flavors! The Banh Mi I've had here is perhaps the best I've ever tasted. On my last visit, I went for the BBQ pork—heavenly! The bread's crunch combined with the fresh, vibrant toppings creates an unbeatable experience. Sure, the decor is minimal, but who cares when the food is this good? Just make sure you bring cash! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Ky Duyen Cafe after hearing rave reviews, and the Banh Mi definitely lived up to the hype! It had the perfect blend of savory and spicy flavors. I tried the cold cut option and while it was decent, I preferred the BBQ pork. Make sure to order early because they sell out quickly! Seating is limited and it can get crowded, but that's just a testament to how good the food is. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have mixed feelings about Ky Duyen Cafe. While the sandwiches were good, the atmosphere left much to be desired. When we visited, it was a bit smoky, which detracted from the experience. On a positive note, the staff was attentive and quick, and the food was tasty. If they could clean up the place a little, it would definitely enhance the experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" This is one of those places you have to visit at least once if you love Banh Mi. The flavor combos are incredible and it feels authentic. The simplicity of the establishment adds to its charm. However, the limited seating is a bit of a drawback. Make sure to plan your visit around lunchtime, as they do run out quickly! " (*Curated Review*)

" Having tried Banh Mi in various places, I can confidently say Ky Duyen Cafe has one of the best. Their sandwiches are huge and packed with all the traditional toppings. I particularly loved their fresh cilantro and crunchy pickled veggies. For only $6, you get a quality meal that fills you up. Just a heads up, it is cash only, but the ATM is conveniently located inside. " (*Curated Review*)

" Ky Duyen Cafe might be small and a bit tucked away, but they serve some of the most authentic Banh Mi I've had on the East Coast! I particularly enjoyed how fresh the bread was, and the fillings were bursting with flavor! The only downside was the seating, which wasn't comfortable, but I would gladly take the food to go anytime. Don't miss out on their iced coffee as well—it paired perfectly with the sandwich. " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I visited Ky Duyen Cafe based on a friend's recommendation and we were not let down! The Banh Mi here reminds me of home; it was like a bite of Vietnam right here in Syracuse. The baguette was perfectly toasted, and the fillings were generous. My husband loved the BBQ pork, while I preferred the cold cut. The service was prompt and polite. Embrace the simplicity of this place; it's all about the food! " (*Curated Review*)
