Normally I'm not a big fan of Banh Mi sandwiches but this place makes them very well. The bread is nice and has a good flavor to it, the meat is plentiful and high quality, and the vegetables have an option to come on the side. This is really great because other banh mi restaurants layer it in a way where each bite has only meat or only vegetables, but this place doesn't have that issue. I love their banh mi dac biet, it's very tasty and has lots of toppings. Their bread is really good and high quality too. read more

I had been craving banh mi so I was so happy to find a new banh mi spot in the area. Another bonus is that there is a free parking lot. There are a few small tables inside but I think most people order food to go. I had the grilled pork banh mi while hubby had the grilled pork rice dish. The bread had a nice crunch but not too much (I've had my fair share of banh mi that cut the inside of my mouth). The veggies were fresh and plentiful and the grilled pork was flavorful. My only complaint is that the sandwiches were on the small side and it may not have been filling enough if I had been hungrier. read more

Came here for lunch today after my wife recently found this spot. It's really easy to find right off of McCormick; the plaza it's in has a decently-sized lot but still seemed pretty packed today. The interior is pretty clean and open but not too much actual seating for the amount of space it has. There are three tables that can seat four, one elevated table with two barstools, and some bar seating by the window. They also have a couple of small couches/benches by the TV and what I think was a karaoke setup. They have 10 different bahn mi on the menu along with a grilled pork rice dish, one pho dish, and several Vietnamese drinks/pastries/desserts. We went with the grilled beef bahn mi, grilled pork bahn mi (toppings on the side for both), and the grilled pork rice dish. The lady who took our order was very nice. Aside from us, the only other people seated were the owner and a few of his friends, but there were several people going in and out with to-go orders while we were there. The food came out pretty quickly and looked/smelled fresh with the bahn mi cut in half as requested. The toppings for the bahn mi came in their own sandwich bag on the side, and my rice dish came with a small bowl of soup which I almost mistook for fish sauce at first (unfortunately it wasn't, but the soup was still light and pleasant). The bahn mi are a little smaller compared to something you might get from Argyle, but I tried the grilled pork and it tasted great! Bread was both soft and slightly crunchy but not hard enough to cut the roof off your mouth, and the pork had a lot of flavor and was cooked well. Same goes for the grilled pork in my rice dish. Everything in this dish seemed on par with similar dishes I've had at other places (fried egg was nice and runny too), though this one doesn't come with Chinese sausage which was a little disappointing. Also disappointing was that they have Kikkoman brand fish sauce at the table which tasted more like soy sauce, rather than (what I assume is) the more traditional, lighter, and flavorful fish sauce that has an orange-ish color. I usually devour this dish with the right fish sauce, but using the Kikkoman brand took away from the experience, unfortunately. As we finished up I asked the owner what we should do with the plates and he said we can just leave them on the table. He was also very nice and friendly. All in all this is a place we can see ourselves coming back to! I'll just withhold on the bottled fish sauce next time. read more

Pick up and go, counter service. With the many options for banh mi sandwiches in the Lincolnwood area, I would highly recommend this place over others. It's a small shop, cash preferred but the quality is so high. I recommend calling ahead and ordering. Perfect meat to veggie ratio. I personally like the special and the nam neung but we've never had a disappointing one. read more

Friendly service, great sandwiches; fresh baked bread and fantastic "#1" sandwich. Veggie sandwich and fish patty also available, as well as a few different roast pork and grilled beef varieties. Pretty good bang for the buck at roughly $9 for most sandwiches. read more

Banh Mi Ong Muoi - Number 1 "The Special". Crispy fresh bread, great tasting mayo. Very balanced and flavorful. - Sandwiches Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I got the special banh mi or banh mi dac biet. Bread is very crispy and fresh and airy inside which I really like. Overall it was really good. I also got the banh cam or sesame balls and they made it freshly hot and I was surprised how big they are. Very good as well. Overall, I will be coming back here for their banh mi. read more

We tried a carryout of a couple offerings of the banh mi sandwiches from this new eatery. All of their banh mi sandwiches, and there are 10 of them, go for $8. If you have been keeping up with banh mi prices, you will know that they have good, competitive pricing. We tried their #1 special cold cuts and their #5 grilled beef. It's also notable that not many places offer grilled beef banh mi so that is a plus. The carryouts were also packaged with the veggies in a separate plastic bag for sandwich freshness. The French bread was very fresh and the sandwiches were flavorful and delicious. Thumbs up! read more

Got banh mi Heo Quay for $8. You can tell that the banh mi freshly made because it's so warm. They put the veggies in a separate bag so the wont be moist. The banh mi itself is crunchy. Wish the pork skin was crispier Apparently they make the heo quay in house. The owners are very nice and friendly even though there are lots of customers Overall, the place is clean. Everything is brand new. Plenty of parking spots. Wish they have more food and drinks. Good place to grab a quick breakfast and coffee before work since they open early. You can always call and order ahead to save time. read more

Egg roll was tasty n warm and sesame ballls were tasty but slightly more firm than norm. Place looked nice and clean and kind owners. read more

Great service. It was nice to meet Chi in the front. My veggie banh mi was great! It could use a bit more filling- more tofu and more veggies, but taste is very good. I also ordered a shrimp spring roll and I loved it! The place is nice and clean with friendly staff. Will definitely come back and try the fish patty Banh mi. read more

Sandwiches are on the smaller side but tasty. Will be back to try more. Friendly staff too.

My family and I ordered the banh mi dac biet, banh cha lua & op la, and the Vietnamese coffee. The baguette for the banh mi was crispy on the outside and airy on the inside. What I liked about the sandwiches is the sauce they used. It's not overly heavy like the other places and still tasty. So far, it's our favorite banh mi place in Chicago. read more

Excellent customer service. I got the pork bahn mi, they packed the veggies separate to keep the bread crispy-and it was fantastic! Sandwich was a bit small, but that means room for dessert! I did get the che-mix of beans and jelly with coconut milk. So good. Parking is plenty. The decor was plain but it was very clean. read more

Excellent sandwiches. I think the bread is either baked onsite or nearby because it's extremely fresh. Also if you take the sandwich to go, they separate the jalapeño/daikon/cilantro in a baggie so it stays fresh. Highly recommended read more

I had high hopes for this place. The bread is okay, but they are really slow. This is a Banh Mi restaurant, how do you not have Banh mi dac biet? There was no pate or mayonnaise on the sandwiches. You Can get better banh mi at the Pho restaurants. I will never be coming back to this "restaurant" read more
