    Counter where you order
    Julianne G.

    Great bahn mi and drinks near SW Henderson and 35th. Small counter where you can place your order on a POS machine or order ahead for pickup. There is a small area with stools for seating but pretty small, so we got our sandwiches and went to the beach to eat them. My son had been here before so he ordered for us. We got the pork bahn mi. Plenty of meat on a nice soft but chewy roll. Not hard like other bahn mis in the area. Mayo and a great brown sauce that is basically liquid caramelized onion lol. Plenty of cilantro, julienne carrots and fresh jalapeño which tones down the sweet flavor of the pork. We didn't get cucumbers because my son said they make the sandwich soggy, too many seeds and makes the sandwich too thick and unmanageable. I can't speak to that. I just did what he told me to do based on his experience. It's definitely a hefty sandwich though with plenty of meat, and I couldn't finish it. Service: Can't really say too much either way, because it's really a hands off place where you place your order on the machine and just wait for your goods. For me the pork was a tad sweet and the only reason I gave 4 stars. But if I go again I will try a different meat. However, the veggies are so fresh and good, I recommend you give this place a try for sure!!

    Phenomenal Food!

    The banh mi is phenomenal. The rolls are amazing. They have very great food. The pho was great, but due to ridiculous rules they won't be carting this anymore. We need to do something about the city planning and allow people to have more freedom. The food is phenomenal and I've not had a better Banh Mi in this city!! Go!

    The Banh Mis here are flavor-packed, generously sized, and very affordable. They don't skimp on the meat or the pickled vegetables! While the pork had a few tougher pieces, the chicken Banh Mi was absolutely the standout. The ordering process is seamless via a self-service kiosk, and there are stools along the perimeter if you prefer to dine in. I visited during the dinner rush, and my food was ready in about 15 minutes. Highly recommended!

    Most people would know that the best banh mi is found in either Little Saigon or South Seattle, but Banh Mi Xo is truly worth the drive to West Seattle for some high quality delicious banh mi! My roommate and I got the chance to try Banh Mi Xo last week, both of us ordering their special XO Deluxe Sandwich. It's a little more on the expensive side for banh mi in Seattle, but it's worth every dollar. This banh mi is HEFTY compared to others out there, each bite leaving me more and more filled. A good amount of meat and fresh vegetables all included in. The only thing I would say is that they mixed up our banh mi as my roommate ordered one with extra pate and I ordered the regular. It wasn't until after a few bites I had to say "oh man, this is delicious but this banh mi is loaded with pate". No worries though, small mistake. I also ordered their fresh lemonade, it's Vietnamese style which was super refreshing! There isn't too many places that serve Vietnamese style fresh lemonade, so I am glad they offer it. This location has limited seating and street parking only. It's very much a deli style kind of place, would recommend ordering a banh mi and eating it at any of the nearby West Seattle parks.

    BBQ Pork Bahn Mi

    I'm back in PNW and went to my favorite Bahn Mi place. Bahn Mi Xo on 35th Ave SW is still on my top place for Bahn Mi. I actually ordered their Grilled Shrimp Salad Bowl this time and let me tell you how tasty this was. The picture says it all. The noodles were thin, not thick and not clumping together like most I've come across, the shrimps were big and not those little ones you usually see, all the vegetables were also cut bigger to which you can actually see it and taste it, the peanuts weren't all small and crushed, the flavors was just spot on! That vinegar sauce it came with was not too sweet and not too sour, just a great balance for these types of salads. Of course I did order a BBQ Pork Bahn Mi to go and as always, it's been consistent from site to flavor. I haven't had anything mediocre in this place! To wash it all down was their strawberry smoothie, although I wouldn't call it a smoothie, more of an ice strawberry drink and that was refreshing. Fast service, nice ladies and a small space for eating inside, but clean and bright. I'm telling you, a must try, you can't go wrong at this place. Til next time PNW. Respectfully.

    Outstanding bahn mi sandwich here! Big and bold, with super fresh ingredients and plenty of heat from the jalapeños. Service was quick and efficient and there's inside seating available. Overall a definite 5-star lunch experience.

    Viet iced coffee
    Liz M.

    We pass by this spot each time on our way to our dog sitter and always wondered how good it was. We decided to stop by for lunch and ordered one combo, one pork Banh mi, and a viet iced coffee. Even though it was lunch, our food came out in less than 10 minutes. The combo banh mi was so delicious. The bread was nice and crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. The deli meats inside were flavorful too, and love that you can add pate to any sandwich. The viet iced coffee color was on point and it was strooong (how I like it). It could wake up someone from a coma - but still had a nice coffee, chocolately flavor. We will definitely be back for more when we are on this side of West Seattle again!

    It's a grilled pork banh mi , the pork came out completely charred

    I've had banh mi from many places, but this was by far the worst experience I've ever had. I've never tried this shop before and honestly won't be coming back. The pork in my grilled pork banh mi was so burnt it looked like pieces of charcoal. I've attached a picture, no one should be served food like this. On top of that, the staff were unfriendly and didn't acknowledge me at all. No greeting, no smile, no eye contact, nothing. Just cold, dismissive service. If you care about your money, your time, or even just basic edible food, I'd seriously recommend going somewhere else.

Each visit left me feeling like I had wasted both my time and money. I've had both the Pho Dac Biet and Pho Saté, and each broth fell short for different reasons. The noodles were oddly overcooked and clumped together in both bowls. While the presentation is appealing, the flavors lack depth and both dishes were noticeably oily. The meat portions were sparse, and the pricing does not justify the quality or quantity of the food. There are simply too many better pho options in the area at this price point.

I felt like the portion of veggie and meat wasn't enough for all the rice rolls, plus the actual heo quay was dry with barely any crispy skin. I think they also forgot to give us the heo quay because we had to ask for it much after the banh uot came out. I would skip this next time. I would also skip the banh khot as it was on the softer, chewier side when my personal preference is light and crispy. Those who do like it soft will definitely enjoy it though. As for flavor, it had an extremely prominent coconut taste- it usually isn't so strong in banh khot so I wasn't so fond of this. My family did really enjoy the com tam and banh mi chao. I only had one bite of each, but I would get these items again. Their drinks on the other hand, were delightful. I got the tamarind black tea and my step dad got the lychee green tea. Both were super refreshing and even addicting. I think they tend to do sweet items better, including their rice crispy treats that they sell on the front counter. Service: (4/5) The service here didn't really stand out much but I didn't pay much mind to it. They were very nice but there was a sense of disorganization, mostly due to us not being acknowledged when we first walked in and having some of our food forgotten about.
