Visiting the area for work and needed to stop for lunch. So glad I found this place! First off, the banh mi was stuffed! The grilled pork was so tender. I had to save the rest for leftovers. Also, the shrimp chips that came with it were so delicious and crunchy. Service was great! I was between the grilled pork and the lemongrass beef. Wish I had room to try both but the worker was very kind and patient. He also helped me decide. Lots of seats and tables! Great music and very clean. Highly recommend this place. Never got to try the boba but they looked really good on the pics. They also offered lots of different flavors like ube and matcha! read more

Banh-Mi Grill - Banh mi grilled pork - Vietnamese Near Me - Ventura, California

Was super excited for this place, as their menu on yelp listed lots of vegan options. About half our party was vegan, so we were super disappointed to find out that they apparently changed the recipe so the tofu was no longer vegan. In fact, it's not even vegetarian, as they add fish sauce. My wife ended up having the pho (their only vegan option) and it was fine. I hoped at least the BBQ pork Banh Mi would slap, since it's right there in the name, but was disappointed again. It was as if they learned everything they know about Vietnamese cuisine from a dollar store cookbook. BBQ pork tasted like 90s mall teppanyaki, Thai tea was fine, but the boba was undercooked and crumbly in the center. The guy behind the counter was nice enough, and I appreciate that he was knowledgeable about the ingredients. Would maybe give them another shot if they had vegan options for the fam, but as it stands we're taking this place off our list read more

I remember the first time I visited was a few years ago. At that time it was a very small space, mainly for takeouts. Since then I've gotten delivery from here but this was my first time dining in. The expansion turned it into a casual dine in restaurant with plenty of seating. I don't tend to do pho for takeout so I decided to have that on this visit. Their signature TNT Pho was so good! The soup was very flavorful, definitely one of the better ones. There seemed to be more meat than noodles since I finished the noodles faster than the meat. Perfect for someone who prefers more protein than carbs! However I personally would like a little more noodles since I like to have noodles and meat in every bite. Previously I had tried the Vietnam banh mi, TNT egg rolls, spring rolls and Chicken vermicelli bowl. All were good but I think the pho is the tastiest of all that I've tried. Service was good. I noticed the employee being very patient with a group of customers taking quite a while and asking a lot of questions about the drinks. The employee was also courteous when one of them asked to "fix" their drink. They also have an order kiosk if you want to order takeout. Very convenient! read more

My friend was raving about it , so I can't wait to try it! Plenty of seating and tons of parking at the back of restaurant . I would def come back! I stopped in to meet up with my friend .

From the reviews, we were looking forward to eating some good Vietnamese food. However, it was pretty disappointing and I'm glad we kept our order small. I had the Spring Rolls with shrimp that were far from fresh. I would suggest a different protein if you're going to order the spring rolls. We also tried the Chicken Bahn Mi. The chicken had a lot of sauce on it. Nothing about the chicken looked grilled. It was more of a stewed chicken placed on bread. The more my husband ate it, the more he disliked it. The Thai Tea was good, but really sweet. Overall, I wouldn't reccomend this spot. Service was good and they do have a large seating area inside. read more

Cute place with a small seating area and some benches to wait for takeout. Only took a few minutes to get my order. Excellent pork vermicelli plate, piled HIGH with crunchy bean sprouts and pickled carrots & daikon. Huge portion and a large container of light sauce included. Lasted me two meals! Try their fun boba smoothies as well. read more

The Banh Mi Grill is family run and offers an excellent and varied menu. It is my go to place when I'm craving Vietnamese food. The service is quick and the staff friendly and helpful. The Banh-Mi used to be mainly focused on take out, but have recently expanded and offers a large dining area, with table service. The expansion also allows customers access from the city parking lot on the back side of the building. read more

This was a Vietnamese restaurant located in a small strip mall with a limited amount of parking stalls. Inside they had a large sit down section with simple decor and a nice wall mural. when we visited they were filling all to go orders and ultimately we ended up just ordering their Banh Mis. They were a little pricey compared to those we get in NorCal but at least they were stacked with lots of meat. Chicken had a sweet marinade and together with the crunchy vegetables and pate it was very tasty sandwich. The grilled pork Banh Mi was also a good choice. For both, the bread was light and airy. Overall service was good but it took a bit longer to get our banh mis than expected. read more

It's a bummer that we came on a bad night, but huge shoutout to the server really trying to hold it down. It looks like the area had a quick power outage, which pretty much made the restaurant unable to operate. Our food took nearly 40 minutes for the appetizer to come out, and then another 10 minute for the first of four entrees to come out. Needless to say, we ended up cancelling the rest of our order and going elsewhere. We did get to enjoy the fish sauce wings, which were delicious and I'd highly recommend! We were also able to take the banh mi we ordered togo, which was more like a banh mi in philly cheesesteak style bread. We also weren't able to pay with card, and the only options were zelle or cash, which would've been helpful to know as soon as it happened. read more

wonderful food... Terrific hard-working staff and owners And guess what? They now have Dining space!!! So happy for them... We will visit more often when we want to sit down and enjoy your meal here read more

Banh-Mi Grill - lemongrass ban mai sandwich with dining space - Vietnamese Near Me - Ventura, California

Trang was so friendly and welcoming! We stopped for lunch on a Saturday. There were two of us and we started w the shrimp & pork spring rolls. They came out quick and were so freash and delicious! Served with peanut sauce, I had to control myself and not drink it. Yummy! We also shared a bowl of "create your pho" with Round steak & brisket. Broth was amazing, plenty of rice noodles and the meat was tasty and of good quality. I was excited to come eat there as they had recently opened a big additional space. It used to be a tiny little spot with no tables available, so I'm glad to see. They have grown definitely great food and really nice service! I will be back. read more

When we ate here in June 2025, they said the seating area had been open for 1 week. The food was fast and fresh. Smiski loves this restaurant. The fresh rolls only come with peanut sauce (there's no sweet chili sauce or sweet and sour alternative) but there is hoisin at the table, along with Sriracha. Vegan report: the tofu pho is vegan as well as filling read more

Great customer service tasty food . Recommended. Fast service. Good price. Coffee is good

Solid banh mi for a reasonable price and quick service .Also had decent chicken pho (pho ga), flavorful broth despite being very light.

Not expecting much from a strip mall fast food but l was pleasantly surprised. The non fried spring rolls were delicious and big. The sauces are all freshly made. I ordered the chicken wings without the sauce on them. They brought out 3 garlic sauces that were amazing, the garlic pepper was the best. My friend order the tofu noodle dish which had the most crispy tofu l have ever seen. I will be back again. read more

I got the grilled chicken Bang Mi, it was huge and packed good! Definitely got full with half, the chicken had such great flavor, husband got the Pork belly Banh Mi and said it was full of flavor.

Absolute hole in the wall FIND. I've been searching for an authentic banh mi with the the perfect crusty/chewy bread, the pate, the right blend of that pork mystery meat blend. And this. Is. It. The real deal. That's the only thing I've gotten so far and I think the only thing I will get from here. Stoked. read more

This place was so good!! The portion sizes for both are great - the spring roll is filled well and the vermicelli bowl portion was perfect. The flavor for both was great! Also the service from the man and woman who were running the restaurant was great, they were very sweet :) Fyi the restaurant is solely a takeout restaurant. read more

We stopped here based on reviews and everyone was spot on. The crispy bread housing an array of fresh veggies and satisfying proteins was absolutely delicious. The only problem for me was that I asked for no jalapenos and they were everywhere on my sammie. Double check before you bite, because they were SPICY!! I would return, but make myself clearer on order. read more

The service was really pleasant. The food still was kind of eh- Thai ice tea had a weird aftertaste, the pork belly was SALTY! The egg rolls were mushy. I wanted to like it so much more- I will give it another try, just because the service made it a nice place to be. read more

Chicken ban mi is delicious. Pair that with a beef pho and you're set. Great staff very friendly and reasonable prices.

I am so glad I discovered this place earlier this year! They have the best pork vermacceli! I order that at least twice a month. The Ban Mi here are also HUGE! I also ordered pho to go around noon from here when I was sick and I ended up saving it until the evening because I was so tired. It was just as good heated up! Also just an update, as of my typing this on 6/16/25 they opened up into the empty building next to them so they now have dine in seating!! I cant wait to go sit down and enjoy a fresh bowl of pho in their dining area! read more

This place is hands down my favorite place in Ventura! I always get the tofu banh mi and the portion is epic.

7/16/25 Order TNT grilled beef vermicelli noodles $14.95 (take-out for dinner later) and Grilled pork banh mi sandwich $12.75, ate this at the restaurant. Sandwich served slightly warm due to grilled pork, and stuffed w pickled veggies (shredded carrots & daikon) and fresh cucumber, both crunchy and a nice compliment to the meat and bread. The meat was nicely marinated and perfectly grilled. The bread is unbelievable delicious, slight-chew texture. The smear inside the bread is the owner's own-made pate (family recipe). I've also had their chicken banh mi before... seems like they're known for the sandwiches. I am looking forward to my dinner later this evening. If my opinion change, I will update my stars. So the 5-star is for the sandwich. A must try. read more

Banh-Mi Grill - Grilled pork banh mi sandwich. - Vietnamese Near Me - Ventura, California

Really awkward service and poor quality food. I returned my Korean BBQ beef ribs because they were really chewy and tasted old as if they just reheated them and added sauce on top of it. They agreed to give me a bowl of pho instead with no refund. My husband's spring rolls were bad and he only had a couple of bites, the peanut sauce was really watery and suspicious looking. The only person who liked their food was our toddler who had a bowl of pho off the kids' menu. We're visiting from a place that has a large Vietnamese community and accustomed to good Vietnamese food. read more

Excellent sandwich! I got the lemongrass beef version to go and took it down to the harbor to eat. It was really good. I recommend this place for takeout! Parking is a bit tight. Service was fine. Place is takeout only. read more

Really no reason not to give this place a 5. You cant sit inside and everything is fresh to order so you just have to wait in the front area for them to bring it to you- but So convienirnt from the beach (about 5 minutes) so a great spot to enjoy. The staff was very friendly and again, made fresh to order so it comes warm and crisp. prices were high for a banh mi maybe but reasonable for the area. The shrimp crackers that come in the bag are wildly addictive and i didn't even know i wanted them until i ate the whole bag. The sandwich is a good size, fresh and flavorful ingredients and soft bun that holds its own. Such a great pairing to eat on a nice warm day at the pier. Would absolutely come again if im in the area read more

The Food is really good. I cme here a couple of times a week. It is the best hole in the wall Vietnamese Food in Ventura County by far. The family that owns and runs this is very friendly. Parents cook since their English is very limited but the two sons have perfect English and Vietnamese language skills. I really like how kind and friendly they are. They just added a sit down restaurant area and it is spacious. So to go or stay and eat you cant go wrong. read more

I gotta say, I didn't expect much from a banh mi place located in Ventura County, but boy am I wrong. This place surely exceeded my expectations. Even though their banh mi is a little pricy, their bread isn't rock hard, it's full of flavor and it's jam packed with the meats n veggies. Their pho is also very flavorful and authentic. Do yourself a favor and get their fish sauce chicken wings. It's crispy and has the right amount of saltiness. read more
