" I've been a fan of Vietnamese food for years, and Mom's Bun Mi has quickly become one of my favorites in the area. The variety of options is impressive, and I really appreciate the vegetarian choices too. I tried the tofu banh mi, and the flavors were vibrant. My only complaint would be the slightly crowded atmosphere during lunch hours. However, the food more than makes up for it. I’m returning to try the curry chicken next week! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place has good potential. I enjoyed my lemongrass beef banh mi, but the flavors didn't quite pop as much as I hoped. I appreciate the fresh ingredients, but I think some tweaking in seasoning would make the meal exceptional. The service was good, and I did appreciate the atmosphere. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't believe how tasty the food at this hidden gem is! Mom's Bun Mi has the best combination banh mi I have ever enjoyed—full of different flavors and super fresh. Be aware that it can get busy around lunch hours, so be prepared to wait a little. It's well worth it. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful surprise! I popped into Mom's Bun Mi after hearing a friend's recommendation and was blown away by the quality of the banh mi. I ordered the lemongrass beef, and the meat was perfectly seasoned and tender. The bread was crisp on the outside and soft inside, just the way I like it. The fresh veggies added the perfect crunch and balance. Plus, the prices are incredibly reasonable! I will definitely be returning for more. " (*Curated Review*)

" Mom's Bun Mi is an experience! From the moment you walk in, you are greeted with a warm smile that makes you feel at home. The décor is simple but inviting, adorned with pictures of dishes that make your mouth water. I decided to go with their special - the combination banh mi that included various meats and the traditional veggies. It did not disappoint! Each bite was a burst of flavor and freshness, and the bread was toasted to perfection; warm and crunchy. I’ll be back to explore more of their menu soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I just had the grilled chicken banh mi here and it was delicious! The sandwich was fresh, and I loved the addition of jalapenos for some heat. Honestly, I wasn’t expecting such a cozy place based on its exterior, but once inside, the warmth of the staff and the food made it perfect. If you’re craving an authentic Vietnamese experience, this is the place to check out! Can't wait to come back with friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently moved to the area and was eager to find a solid spot for banh mi, and I believe I hit the jackpot! I had the spicy tofu sandwich and it was flavorful and filling. The price fits my budget, and I was especially pleased with the portion sizes. My only minor issue was that I had to wait a little longer than ideal for my sandwich, but the quality made the wait worthwhile. A must-visit for anyone who loves Vietnamese sandwiches!
