" Banh Appetit is a decent place if you need good food fast. Their Vietnamese coffee is a good pick, although not as strong as I like. I had the tofu salad twice and really enjoyed the flavors. It’s vegetarian-friendly, which is a plus! The atmosphere is straightforward and clean, making it easy to enjoy a casual meal. Just be prepared for possible wait times during busy hours. Overall, a solid choice for quick bites! " (*Curated Review*)

" As someone who has visited numerous Vietnamese restaurants, Banh Appetit stands out due to the authenticity of their dishes. The flavors were legit! I ordered the spicy chicken banh mi, and I must say, it was packed with flavor. The sriracha mayo addition took it to the next level. I also really appreciated how fresh everything tasted, especially the cilantro and jalapeño. Though the place could use a little more decor to make it feel more inviting, the food makes up for it. I'll definitely be back for another round soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been hearing a lot of buzz about Banh Appetit, especially regarding their banh mi sandwiches. I decided to give it a try with the classic grilled pork banh mi, and honestly, it was pretty good! The bread wasn't the freshest I've ever had but the toppings were perfect. There was a good balance of meat, veggies, and sauce. The seating area is casual and comfortable. I might not make it my #1 spot, but I'd come back for a quick bite before classes. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was on the hunt for some genuine Vietnamese food and stumbled upon Banh Appetit. After reading about their commitment to freshness, I couldn't wait to try it. The curry chicken salad was a pleasant surprise, not overly spicy but flavorful. The vibe was inviting, and I appreciate the casual setup of the restaurant. I will be recommending this spot to others for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" A friend recommended Banh Appetit, and I'm so glad I took their advice. The lemongrass chicken banh mi was fantastic! It was my first time experiencing such a flavor explosion. I also had a side of their freshly made fries, which were perfectly seasoned. The cozy atmosphere made me want to linger longer, chat, and enjoy the food. The service was amicable and prompt. I will definitely be returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Banh Appetit for the first time and it was an interesting experience. The decor isn't anything fancy, but it’s cozy enough. I had the mock duck curry which was new territory for me. It wasn't bad but felt like it was missing some depth of flavor. However, the fries were crispy as they should be, and I loved the dipping sauce! Can't say I’ll rush back, but there are definitely good aspects. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the best fries of my life at Banh Appetit! The banh mi was also enjoyable, and the whole meal felt refreshing. I appreciated how clean the restaurant was and the friendly service we received. The only thing I would change is for them to have more vegetarian options on their menu. Regardless, I will be coming back. " (*Curated Review*)
