TLDR: fresh and crisp veggies! I ordered delivery and was not disappointed! Food came fresh and was very flavorful! One awesome thing to note about this place is that when you order the Banh Mi extra toppings (besides protein) is free! I totally love that because I love my veggies! Vietnamese Ham Banh Mi: the pickled carrots and daikon radish were a bit on the sweet side for me and could have been slightly more "pickley" but it the entirety of the sandwich was very fresh and super crisp with all those fresh veggies! Grilled Pork Vermicelli: again, very fresh tasting! I do wish they included some herbs like thai basil in there for more added flavor but it was still a very filing and tasty dish! The romaine instead of iceberg lettuce is a plus! The fish sauce in my opinion was a bit on the sweet side--I'm a fan of tartness so I like mine a bit more tangy. The grilled pork had excellent flavor but it was a bit too stringy and chewy for my liking. Grilled Beef Vermicelli: vermicelli and veggies were great just like above! I do think that next time I will get the beef as opposed to the pork because it wasn't as chewy and stringy. Good flavor! read more

This is just a pho review. We didn't try the sandwiches, which might have been a mistake on our part. Off the beaten path in one of the side office parks scattered around Canyon Park. There seem to be hardly any other restaurants or even public-facing businesses of any kind in any of these buildings. They have a nice little corner on the market, especially for lunch, in this spot. You walk in to 3 rows of tables; they can seat about 30 people but clearly they do a ton of to-go business. You order at the counter, and get your own water and tea off to the side. Free hot tea, too! Nice touch. The menu is a dozen or so phos, a few sandwiches, and a couple apps. They do have veggie options. Service seemed overwhelmed during our visit, getting flustered while we waited to order and again when we pointed out that they were out of cups at the water station. Nice kids, but a little stressed out. The spring rolls were fine; decent flavor, nice texture, fresh ingredients. Nothing memorable on the good or bad side. Solid choice. The pho was just okay. Noodles were a little too sticky and clumpy without much chew. Not much meat, and some was pretty tough. The condiments were fresh enough, and the hot sauces were dependable bottled stuff. But the broth was basically just water. Not much flavor happening at all. In the end, I would eat here all the time if I worked nearby. Prices were good, and the whole place was spotless. They're just on the dull side in terms of what's in the bowl. read more

One of our go-to places and glad it's so close to us. Def try their bang mi dip!!! The owner is friendly and so welcoming. The service is quick but can get busy during lunch hours during the week. Plenty of seating read more

I ordered a generic bahn mi sandwhich to go. Didn't tip, it is a $8 sandwich TO GO after all. They intentionally made other orders and made me wait 45 mins for my sandwich. I counted, 7 orders made after me got their food first, 2 of which were the exact same thing, a beef banh mi sandwhich. Screw your tip guilt, scum company. read more

Almost no complaints and whole lot of praise. The pho is pho-nominal! A pho-lover's dream. Extremely fresh and high quality ingredients. I loved this place because it is family owned and the meals are made with a real love of the food and culture. The owner is the one serving you and his family is in the back making the food. Very friendly and personable people. They were really excited to serve us! Had great conversations with them throughout the night. The place is nice but the location is whack. It's in the middle of a business park so you won't think you're in the right place. Inside is really nice looking. The tables were a little dirty though and the surface was really sticky (never a fan of that). Also, it was really quiet and weird inside. Had some music playing but it was just kind of an awkward environment. I'd suggest making it a more comfortable and fun atmosphere. Maybe play better and louder music? They told us about all the work and preparation they put into their pho. Get the P5, it has a combination of all the meats. Absolute perfection. Classic pho. Prepared and cooked really well. Meat is vey tasty and flavorful. Some of the best I've had. I also got the beef banh mi sandwich and it was killer!! The bread is made fresh everyday and the veggies they put on it are fresh and crisp. Idk what sauce they put on it, but I couldn't get enough. I'd also recommend dipping it into your pho broth lol. The prices are really reasonable. Worth every penny. I will be back. read more

The food was decent for this area. It likely would not survive if it was in So. CA. This was the first time that I ever had a Banh Mi place run out of Banh Mi. Lol! So we had the shrimp fried rice, pork chop rice, shaken beef rice, and pork vermicelli. All the proteins were super dry and tough. So if you are use to Vietnamese food from So CA, this will not pass your palate test. The service was timely for a to-go order and the staff were nice. read more

I love this place. The staff is actually so nice and helpful I would cut off my pinky for them. I went there today and it was pretty full and yuri got my order with the biggest smile on her I swear. I got my food really fast I love this place read more

We love coming here. It's usually quieter and not as busy. The food is delicious which is why this is our go to Vietnamese restaurant. Great pho, friendly service, clean and calm space. read more

The pho soup is amazing. Lots of meats and vegetables. This is our second time here , I had a vermicelli noodle(bun) with pork and it also was great and meaty. This is in an area with lots of business behind Starbucks and McDonald's. Great service but come before the noon as the office people come right around 11-1pm. Tried the Banh mi dip ,oh so yummy read more

Shrimp in spring rolls are not well deveined, shrimp excrement present, they cut the shrimp in half in the rolls so you're getting 1 .5 shrimp per roll , owner made a huge deal out of asking for a side of chili sauce, very petty , they also charge .10 cents for a sriracha packet I realized later on their website that tells me everything I need to know about their corner cutting establishment . read more

This place is definitely located in an interesting spot - smack in the middle of a business park - but it's awesome! Great on a sunny day to sit outside and enjoy your food. I tried the pork vermicelli bowl and tofu banh mi. The vermicelli bowl was huge with equal portions of noodle, pork, and vegetables. The banh mi was well stuffed and bread is made in house! So yummy. I would come back to just eat the bread plain... read more

Banh Mi Pho U! - K2. Grilled Pork Vermicelli - Vietnamese Near Me - Bothell, Washington

I was excited to try this place after seeing several recommendations on our local FB page. I'm going to be really unpopular and say, meh. Had the pork banh mi, and while it was well priced at $6.95, the pork wasn't really grilled and sort of over marinated, and overall dry. I love a well seasoned grilled pork that still retains porky texture and the fat is slightly charred. This just wasn't it. There were 4 slices of jalapeno for the whole sandwich, it just over all lacked. Maybe I'm just partial to the banh mi I'm used to. The pho was meaty, and the broth pretty standard; I'd order the pho over the sandwich if found myself here again. read more

Food is good for a Chinese. Service is good. Environment is good. Around there is few options, but still worth to go. read more

Went here for dinner. It was a quiet place. We ordered spring rolls as an appetizer, a banh mi, and a pho to share. It worked well for me and my husband to share and be full. The spring rolls were great and my husband loved the peanut sauce. I don't like peanuts so I didn't try it. The banh mi and pho were delicious. The bread of the banh me was perfectly crusty and was delicious dipped in the pho broth. The pho had a good amount of noodles and meat. Neither one was overpowering the dish as a whole. I would definitely recommend anyone give this place a try if you're in town. read more

This is a Vietnamese pho and sandwich shop nestled and somewhat hidden in a Bothell Office park. You'll probably miss it the first time you come around since it's not really an area with retail stores. The inside is modern, bright and clean. It's a lunch counter style restaurant so no waiters and self serve water etc. which makes sense since most of the customers imagine are coming from work. I ordered the large P3 and spring rolls. The spring rolls were great with nice large pieces of shrimp. They haven't succumbed to the fried onion and hair of lettuce trend yet so expect a traditional looking roll. The large Tai Chin was fine with an ok amount of meat and noodles. Average tasting broth. My only complaint is all the noodles were stuck together inside the soup, which is indicative of somewhat hasty preparation. It's a good business/work lunch option. I wouldn't venture out of my way to come here just to eat though. read more

Setting: We got take out because of COVID. The take out process was pretty seamless. Food: We got the pork Banh Mi in addition to pho. For the Banh Mi, the bread was a little hard and the meat slightly dry but it was overall still pretty good. The pho was pretty standard, nothing spectacular about the broth and the meat quality was decent. We heated up the pho broth again at home to make it taste more fresh. Value: The price for the amount of food was standard compared to Vietnamese restaurants in the area. Service: No issues. The food was ready when they said that it would be. Other: Definitely a place worth trying in the Bothell area if you are craving Vietnamese food. I think the next time I go, I will get the Banh Mi and vermicelli since the pho was just average. read more

5 stars for the banh mi. 3 stars for the other offerings. So 4 stars given. The namesake banh mi here are terrific! The bread is high quality and so is the stuff inside. They're almost as good as the ones you'd fine in the city, so they're definitely worth a try. The pho/bun/etc other stuff is a bit lacking, which is strange considering it's the same ingredients but something was not quite there. It's not terrible, but even amongst the limited offerings of Bothell, there are better places to go. read more

FINALLY FOUND this place! I've looked for this place a couple of times, after seeing the signs through the business park but couldn't find it. Today I decided I was going to find it and I am glad I did. It's very clean inside and lots of seating. I ordered Chicken Chow Mein & a Banh Mi sandwich. I took it back to the lunchroom at work & almost couldn't stop eating the Chow Mein. It is really good. I split the Banh Mi with my husband later and it was also delicious! I will go back for sure and I highly recommend! read more

Found this gem on yelp and we're so glad we stopped by! They have a bigger menu than I expected- appetizers, sandwiches, pho, rice dishes and vermicelli. Other than soft drinks, they have Vietnamese coffee and Thai tea as well. They are vegetarian frie What we ordered- * Shaken beef (bo luc lac): The meat was SUPER tender and very flavorful. Probably one of the better bo luc lacs I've had!! * Pork Bahn Mi sandwich: The owner recommended to order this with a fried egg and told us the bread was made in house. It was sooo yummy and really delicious with the runny yolk. * Tofu spring rolls: These came with 2 rolls, peanut sauce and hot sauce. The inside had fried tofu, vermicelli noodles and lettuce. * Beef pho: My friend ordered this and the broth was very clean. Overall, the food was sooo good and it hit the spot! It's a new restaurant and owners are both extremely sweet/friendly. There's plenty of parking and seating inside. They also have a rewards system which is pretty cool too. We're definitely coming back and telling our friends about this place! read more

Banh Mi Pho U! - Vietnamese Near Me - Bothell, Washington

Came across this spot through Yelp and I must say I'm super impressed!! - the shaken beef was *absolutely delicious*, SO flavorful!! Must try. I was surprised how good it was. I decided to order this based off another user's review and I'm so glad I did!! - the Thai tea is really creamy and perfectly sweet - good pho! - enjoyed the spring rolls that came with peanut sauce + chili sauce I really appreciated how modern the menu was and the aesthetic of the restaurant. Also, everything was super clean which is a plus!! This place (the sign) blends in with the rest of the building so it can be easily missed so look out for the signs on the side of the street that point to the restaurant. read more

Food is always really good but don't order online. Order in person or by phone. They have no ability to update inventory online and if you order something they ran out of, it can cause issues. They completely Ran out of all sandwiches tonight and I didn't find out til I arrived. In a rush I could not wait for ordering an alternate, compounding the "convenience" time of Easy pick-up, as I had a meeting following the pick up. Not entirely their fault And they tried to fix it. The refund I got back was for the order but not for the tip. So order by phone, or pick the tip on arrival so you can Determine what to tip based on what's available for your order. If the owners can ever get a way around these issues, it would make for a perfect experience. Hence the 5 minus 1 stars. read more

We came here for the first time and found it a little hard to find because it blended in so well with all of the business offices. It was pretty cool to see this as the only restaurant in the area thought. The look of the place feels different and clean. The parking spots here are pretty narrow so it might be a bit difficult if you have a bigger or wider car. It also seems busy so it can be hard to find a spot as well. The place itself is on the smaller side but it feels very open and spacious. They have quite a lot of seating while making it still feel roomy. It also looks pretty clean and well maintained, which I appreciate. All we ordered was banh mi so I can't really give that much feedback on all their food in general, but the banh mi was pretty good. We ordered banh mi beef and banh mi dac biet. They give a lot of veggies, but it seems like they give more bread and less meat than other places I usually go to for banh mi. I really like meat so that was a bit disappointing for me personally. The food options here are really nice tho. I had my eye on the banh mi dip with pho broth so I may come back again to try that. Service here is pretty good. The cashier was friendly and attentive, and one of the ladies from the back came out to answer one of my questions about the food so I really appreciate that. read more

Banh Mi Pho U! - Banh Mi Dac Biet (Vietnamese ham) - Vietnamese Near Me - Bothell, Washington

Made to order spring rolls. Fresh crunchy lettuce, fresh shrimp, needed more noodles in it. Really tasty peanut sauce (half peanut, half hoisin I think?) Comes with side cups or crushed peanuts and Sriracha. Absolute NOT a fan of the pork that was in them. It tasted off, and was grey and ashy in color when I pulled it out of the roll. Will be back to try other dishes, and will ask for no pork next time in the rolls. read more

Found this place via a friend's referral, I was quite intrigued because they bake their own bread. The bread was definitely good, but not sure how much better these actual rolls are over just getting a good daily bakery supplier. Sandwiches were delicious but I wouldn't say the best Banh Mi I have ever had. I could easily name drop which ones are my favorite but my better judgement says let's just focus on this restaurant. Fresh vegetables, good meat, nice roll were all a plus. I think I would have liked a little more mayo or whatever condiment they add to the bread. The one thing that bumped me a tiny bit is at 11:45 in the morning on a weekday, I got the very last sandwich. While I'm extremely grateful I got the last one, I was scratching my head like how can you be sold out already? Seems like they need to work on their supply? read more

Ordered Pho and the pork Banh mi and they were both awesome will definitely be back again!

Service: Exceptional customer service. No wait time. Very discrete location in the bothell business distirct. Very quiet music was great. Warm & cozy atmosphere. I talk to the owner who was very friendly and inviting. They have been in the neighborhood for 5 months and I'm shocked I have discovered them. Food: food portions were perfect. I had the Banh Mi sandwich for the first time and it was great! I originally came in for Pho and that portion size was just as perfect. Not to hot for my son. Just the perfect spice for us. Thank you guys for a great dinner read more

I've been looking for a good Banh Mi place near my work and I this this will be my new favorite spot! They're service was friendly and fast. I got the beef Banh mi and spring rolls. Both were delicious! The spring rolls were fresh (it didn't seem like it was premade or anything) and the Banh mi was nice and toasty! I'm excited to try other items on the menu. My only complaint would be the parking. It gets pretty busy during the lunch rush and there's a lot of reserved parking for other businesses in the building. read more

I ordered food by phone & we picked it up. Everything was fresh, they had my food ready when I got there & it was tasty. I did t take pictures, but I ordered chicken pho (the chicken was a bit on the dry side) they gave plenty of noodles, onion, cilantro and condiments for the top (jalapeño slices, sprouts & lime) also got a fresh roll with tofu, which came with a dark colored peanut sauce. Lastly, we got pork banh mi sandwich. Crusty bread, not too much meat, cilantro, pickled veggies. They are in a secluded area with other businesses, east to find though. read more

Okay, you can't tell by my picture, but this sandwich was large and amazing. I was in a rush but I love that you can up to order online and customize your sandwich by adding or double certain ingredients, and it is prepared and all ready to go when you come at a good price. Taste experience wise, the Bahn mi I got was surprising in so many good ways. The pork was tender, juicy, well flavored, and a good portion. Veggies were good but there could have been more of them. The over easy egg was perfectly cooked with just enough gooeyness that dripped over yet didn't make the bread soggy. And the bread itself was flaky, fresh and a bit thicker than other French bread I've had but it served well to hold the sandwich together with a good soft sturdiness. Would definitely not hesitate to return here again! read more

Banh Mi Pho U! - Pork bahnmi + egg - Vietnamese Near Me - Bothell, Washington

The broth is 100% delicious. Not too sweet, not too salty. The meat however... On 6/6/22 I ordered brisket and my meat was SO tough, I literally couldn't chew it, this has never happened to me anywhere before. I ordered takeout pho in 2 sizes and the "regular" size to "large" size broth and there was not a significant difference between the two. Even though the brisket and well done eye round were tough AF, it was also disappointing to have such a small portion. I am seriously considering just ordering broth next time... read more

So I've ordered from here more than a couple of times and the food is usually excellent, but the service is usually slow. Keeping this in mind I verified the time to pick up was 10 minutes on my phone order. I work less than. 5 minute walk away so I gave them ample time and left at the 15 minute mark after my order (every order I've had is never ready when they tell me or when the online order states). So I get there and my order is finally ready 25 minutes after my order was originally placed after being told 10 minutes. My bahn mi is usually meat cooked in whatever marinade they use which is delicious. This sandwich had what looked like just rotisserie chicken with no seasoning. Furthermore, the chicken wasn't even hot, it was lukewarm. So I waited 2.5 times the wait period and my food wasn't even hot. Also the meat was flavorless. Really poor review... not a happy camper read more

I came at the end of the day on Friday. When I went they told me originally that they didn't have anymore bread but when I told them that their sandwich was the only reason I came they magically found two breads, haha. The banh mi was excellent and well worth the trip. One of the better ones around. The pork was super juicy and the vegetables had a great crunch to them. It had plenty of spice to it and the bread was excellent. They say it is baked fresh daily and I believe it. Go early in the day to ensure you get a sandwich. The pho was not good. The broth was really watery to me and honestly something I would never get again. The fresh spring rolls were good but nothing compared to bait tong. If you really want a great fresh spring roll go there. The peanut sauce was okay. I wanted it a little more smooth. If it wasn't for the sandwich I wouldn't go back. The fact they did offer me a sandwich once I told them I was leaving l, was nice but a little deceptive too. Banh Mi = 5 Stars Pho = 2 Stars Fresh Rolls = 3 Stars read more

I ordered the pork vermicelli , the pork is really dry like it wasn't made fresh, like it was heated in a microwave. As a Vietnamese food, it lacks flavor. There's just something off about the pork. I've had this meal at many different places and this item is just completely off. read more

I had the mì xào and it was bland and the noodles were not cooked right. When I first saw the dish, I could tell some of the noodles clumped up and sauceless. While I was eating it, I thought the dish must be inauthentic because it did not feel or taste like egg noodles. But now that I think about it, they probably just over or under cooked the noodles beyond recognition. To be fair, it wasn't inedible or gross, but I expected less carelessness given how much they charged. read more

This place is tucked in a business park and the service was so nice and hospitable. We came on a Thursday evening around 5:15 and the main issue was actually traffic. Being located in the business park in bothell made for terrible traffic despite living only 4 miles away. However, food was awesome. We wanted meatball aka char siu Banh mi's but they were out so we got the pork. Bread was awesome and sandwiches are only $5. We also got a bowl of pho and the broth was delicious. While we were there, there were a few other families with children. I would definitely recommend this place - but would probably hit it up around lunch time to get the most availability with Banh mi sandwiches. read more

Great staff! They are nicely set up for social distancing and respects our concern. I personally wasn't too crazy about their bahn mi sandwich because it wasn't your typical authentic. I feel like they put less of pate and vegetables because of the location it is in. Mind you I added extra everything to my sandwich but it was still less. The location is a business location and the building it is in looks a lot like all the building surrounding it. It was hard to find, what stool out was their orange table. read more

Came here to try the bahn mi's, but they were out of em I guess? Had to go with the pho instead. The broth was a little to sweet for me and seems to be lacking in salt. But the flavor was there. The amount of meat given was lack luster, usually when I order pho from anywhere else, it's got a good amount of meat to go with every bite. This time, I finished the meat early on and was left with just noodles. Overall it's a solid place, but nothing that makes it better then other pho spots. If you work or live near by, this would be a decent option. But if you are craving pho, this definitely wouldn't be my recommendation. Would love to try the bahn mi, which is what they are known for. So this review isn't for the bahn mi, just the pho and the price paid. read more

I have been hearing about Banh Mi Pho U for months, but was never able to make a point of going until this morning. I had gone to work early today and was asked to go home since I was still getting over a cold. I thought, I feel like a good soup... and fortunately Banh Mi Pho U was open!!!! I stopped in and ordered a regular chicken pho to go. When I got home, I grabbed one of my huge bowls and dropped in the chicken, veg, and noodles and gently poured the broth over it.. I had the basil, sprouts, and lime.... a little sriracha, let it sit a bit.... and indulged..... The chicken was soo tender, and flavorful. The broth was so clean and had some serious depth to it, the noodles were so silky in a way. This was by far, the best pho I had ever had. Now I know what all the kids were talking about!!! When I first had pho, I was told it's all about the broth.. but I was never impressed before. It was just sort of there before. But THIS broth, was like the best part of the meal, don't get me wrong, the chicken and noodles are definitely on par! But I really looked forward to tilting that bowl and drinking every last drop of that broth!!! I highly recommend Banh Mi Pho U, I plan on coming back again soon. And it definitely helped me feel much better too!! read more
