" Just went to Banh Mi So 1 and it was fantastic! I ordered the #3 with grilled chicken and it was so flavorful. The bread was crusty and warm, the fillings were generous – a perfect lunch. The staff were busy but efficient, I didn’t have to wait long at all. I’ll definitely come back when I’m in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" Tried Banh Mi So 1 after a friend’s suggestion, and I was impressed! The sandwiches have a unique flavor that stands out. I had the roast pork and found it both tender and delicious. The only issue was the wait time, as it was a bit busy, but I understand that good food takes time. The staff was friendly and the place felt clean and welcoming. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more options soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations based on all the reviews, but my experience at Banh Mi So 1 was less than stellar. The bread was a bit hard and the fillings were not as generous as I would have liked. While the flavors were okay, I’ve certainly had better banh mi elsewhere. The staff was friendly, and I appreciate that they make everything in-house, but I probably won't return since there are other places that offer better portions. " (*Curated Review*)

" Banh Mi So 1 is one of my favorite places to grab a sandwich! The quality of the bread is unmatched, and I love their variety of protein options. My go-to is the #3 with grilled chicken and extra spicy jalapeños. The flavors are on point! The place is small, so it’s mostly takeout, but that’s fine by me. Just don’t forget to ask for the veggies on the side for a fresher crunch. A fantastic place overall! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first time trying Banh Mi So 1 and I was a bit skeptical at first due to all the hype. However, I was blown away by the quality! The sandwiches were loaded with savory fillings - I ordered the BBQ pork and it was simply delicious. The freshness of the bread really made the meal special. The staff was friendly, but the busy times can lead to a small wait, so be prepared for that. Overall an excellent experience, and I can’t wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Banh Mi So 1 is by far one of the best places for banh mi in the area! The vibrant flavors, crispy veggies, and freshly made baguettes keep bringing me back. I particularly love their #2 with grilled pork; it’s so flavorful. The staff is quick and polite, but be prepared for a packed line during lunchtime. A must-try if you’re in the vicinity! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first experience with Vietnamese food, and I couldn’t have asked for a better introduction! The sandwiches were truly delicious, filled with juicy meats and crispy veggies. The flavors were vibrant and kept me coming back for more. However, I did find the place a little cramped for dining in, but given the fantastic takeout options, it’s a win! I’m definitely sold on coming here again. " (*Curated Review*)
